Trackmania United: the seven deadly racing environments

Trackmania UnitedIn Trackmania United, a minor thing such as lack of roads isn’t a reason to stop you from racing. In fact, taking the challenge off-off-off road just makes it better. Taking it off the streets and onto everything else is one of the game’s main attraction. Few does it better than this baby from Nadeo.

Trackmania United features seven racing environments – each with its own universe, terrain, vehicle choices, and driving technique. Trackmania United goes from rubber burning hot to sub-zero conditions:

STADIUM. Stadium offers a wide choice of circuits, from the fastest to the most technical. It features a combination of F1 car and buggy, a vehicle is designed to have the competitive edge. With excellent grip, this racing car is easy to learn to drive but requires real dexterity to pull out its best performances. Requiring optimal roads, this vehicle needs precise speed control to record the best time. The environment offers the perfect mix between asphalt tracks and skidding dirt paths.

ISLAND. The Island environment and its racing car will have you glued to your screen! With mind-blowing speed, the Island vehicle gives hair-trigger handling, whether you prefer skidding and controlled slides at hundreds of miles per hour, or unadulterated driving, hammering it out on unforgiving roads. The wide variety of Editor blocks available allow the creation of radically different circuits.

DESERT. The flat sandy stretches, punctuated by canyons and rocky mounds offer a game terrain perfect for ultra-fast circuits with loops, hairpin turns, dizzying drops, and impressive jumps. The American has good acceleration and high performance breaks. Full speed turns, enormous jumps, and strong breaking are where it excels.

BAY. Bounce from roof to roof of the many buildings in Bay at the wheel of a “Grand Class” 4×4! The driving is fast, flexible and very peppy with a fantastic stunt spirit supported by an incredibly dynamic suspension! It’s a 100% urban, ultra-detailed environment, Bay lets you play with the elements of the city: from the docks to the rooftops with loops, blocks straight from skate parks, and other urban craziness.

The reset of the seven deadly environments after the jump.

RALLY. The rally environment is full of dirt tracks and medieval roads and walls, where ultra long or radically short curves come one after the other. With tight passages and river crossings the winding, hilly roads are tree-lined or bordered by vast prairies and rarely forgive driving errors. Combining lightning acceleration and impressive maximum speeds, the Turbo2 has a power that must be mastered, especially on the slippery circuits of the rally environment.

COAST. Coast offers simulation oriented driving in a Mediterranean setting. With straight and winding roads, cliffs, jumps, and sign-posted portions of its circuits, Coast demands precision and controlled speeds. In this environment, the high-strung Roadster requires meticulous driving with expert doses of accelerating/breaking and pure “outside/inside/outside” driving.

SNOW. The ‘Snow’ environment blends snow and ice covered roads with super-traction portions of the track. The changes in grip make for a full speed 90° twist right before a bobsleigh turn, putting the nerves of even the best of drivers to the test. Slow by nature, the Pick-up only needs to increase speed on the descents delivering extreme sensations. Its wide tires offer ‘arcade-style’ traction, and if you are well positioned on the track, it will let you take any turn at full speed.

Trackmania United will be on sale in February with 10,000 early copies available online next month.
