Florent Castelnerac, CEO of Nadeo, discusses the creation of this groundbreaking title…What was the motivation for Nadeo when creating a free game for use at the ESWC?It’s taken a lot of time and money to develop this special Trackmania Nations edition, but it’s something we consider a privilege. At the end of the day we’re happy that everybody everywhere will get the chance to play the game. And if people enjoy playing it then they may go on to buy Trackmania Sunrise , which online servers, and a more advanced version of the spectator mode.Has the game engine changed?We’ve been continually developing the game engine. We wanted the game to run as many PCs out there as possible, but obviously we also wanted to take advantage of the latest technology so that it would be as visually impressive as possible for the Electronic Sports World Cup. And we’ve also been working with handle an infinite number of blades. We can’t wait for people to play it – it just looks so much more immersive and precise.But does its status as a World Cup event game mean it’s only one for die-hard race fans?Actually it’s more important for as many people as possible to get to grips with it, to make it easier for people to enter the competition.
