GRID Legends: My First Impressions with a Wheel!

Watch as we try an early preview version GRID Legends with a wheel and a sim racing cockpit. While this clearly isn’t meant to be a serious racing game, EA and Codemasters claim that you can still have fun with a racing wheel.
That sounded like a challenge to us, so we fired up the sim rig and tried three races to see how it feels. First, Ginettas around London, then the electric Super E single-seaters with Boost Zones and finally the epic GT1 race cars around Brand Hatch.
To reiterate, this is an early build and only includes the racing, the story and career modes will no doubt add to the experience at launch. Also, the wheel settings, force feedback, AI, visuals and damage is all a work in progress and not final.
But, watch to see if the handling has improved over 2019’s GRID and let us know in the comments below if you’re interested in GRID Legends, which releases on 25th February 2022 for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S

Looks enjoyable! Great video and break down. I'll definitely be picking this up!

Thank you!

Recently downloaded this from Gamepass on PC. Thoroughly enjoyed it, the story while cheesy was great. Certainly more fun than I've had with GT7's "Career mode"

Have you tried it on Logitech G923? Does it still support TrueForce? If it is, it will be a day 1 buy for me, I really like it on grid 2019, and hope it returns in this game

Nice video. I cant find the replays? Is my game not working properly? Have you got replays?

I have had a great time playing it with my Fanatec set up, You are correct, After running the intense sim racing platforms this is a good cool down to just relax and have some fun.

It's a game you can take super serious or super casual and still have a great time.

Hi, great vid. What wheel / peddles are you using ?

@TraxionGG 2 года назад

Hey there! I am using a Thrustmaster TS-XW wheel base with the T-LCM pedals 😊

@LuisMoreno-nn7pl 2 года назад

I can attest to this. Tried it on a TGT ii upon release, feels very natural provided the rotation is set correctly. I wasnt a fan of driving with a wheel on the past GRID games and I feel Legends got it right this time. Great fun

@bratosin1 2 года назад

1. The wheel in game its synchronized? 2. Can I change the fov /seat pos? 3. Can I get rid of the wheel and driver hands?

@TraxionGG 2 года назад

The wheel was synchronized for me when I set it to 540 degrees (in my own profiler) and there are multiple onboard camera angles in different positions, with/without the wheel and drivers hands. Again, this is a preview build so I can't say yet what options will or won't be available on full release. I'm confident all of these concerns you mention will not be an issue though🙂

If I buy GRID 2019 standard edition, and I buy the Seasons, will I get all the content or do I have to have ultimate edition to do so

@Xander_Park 2 года назад

@thesensiblestreamer2958 2 года назад

The only content you'd be missing is a few Grid Edition liveries and an XP boost. Although it might be cheaper to buy Ultimate Edition as opposed to buying the base game and seasons separately

@Gma7788 2 года назад

You'll always miss out on stuff if you don't buy.

@jerwatson79 2 года назад

How would you compare this to GT Sport? It looks like you can really throw the car around. Im not a fan of the physics in GTS

@Gma7788 2 года назад

You're not a fan of amplification X and Y limitations. Grid requires you to spend hours adjusting the controller limits. The in game adjustments are simple but they radically change the cars performance. They're not even close.

Hope the draft isn’t as overpowered as the last grid, and the curbs aren’t as lethal.

@Xander_Park 2 года назад

Curbs gave been fixed 🙌

@thesensiblestreamer2958 2 года назад

The trick to curbs in Grid 2019 is simply go easy on the accelerator and steering while on top of them. It's generally raised curbs that cause spinouts. Flat apex isn't as lethal

the sense of speed is way better in this than 2019. more like autosport which is what i still play

@thesensiblestreamer2958 2 года назад

Have you tried the TC-1 Specials or the R26? Grid 2019 often feels fast to me, but I have world record lap times. But is a sense of speed even real? Oftentimes, people on the highway IRL doing 75mph+ have no real sense of speed. In Grid Autosport, the faster you go the faster the camera shakes. In Grid 2019 the camera is very firm. When driving down the highway at high speeds there's a certain stillness. There's no camera shake. In real life, it's very easy to be driving faster than you realize. There is a sense of acceleration, but perhaps no such thing as a sense of speed

@@iqbalhussein5434 I get that. Neither was the OG Grid but it had Sim elements. The first game had pit stops which made for a great race with the hustle and bustle of the first few laps. The OG Grid was magical not as good as BTCC but it was still a great racer.

Is the wheel turns 900 degrees in cocpit camera? Because i hated forza's terrible cocpit look i hope grid doesnt do that

@TraxionGG 2 года назад

In the preview I played, using 540 degrees of rotation the wheel in game matched exactly what my wheel in reality was doing, and it felt natural. There is also a cockpit view with no visible wheel if there are any issues with rotations and syncing. All of this is the first preview build, so subject to change but so far so good it seems!

No damage and battered body parts falling off or vibrating, no colissions, Flat 2d UI menu not like the 3D Racedriver grid menu, it was more immersive. Labels also lacking this 3d pop. All texts look too flat. Music like race driver grid? Racedriver grid music menu 1, menu 2, and intro were insanely good.

@thesensiblestreamer2958 2 года назад

No damage because he's not crashing. Crashing causes scratches, loose parts, dented panels, etc. Eventually chunks start falling off, and with some cars you can pretty much get down to a bare chassis if you work at it. A good damage model is a hallmark of every Grid game but none of them go as far as Wreckfest. However, crashing isn't the purpose of the series. When you are skilled enough you won't often find yourself crashing

@Flying-Fox19 2 года назад

My racing gameplay rarely totals up the car. Why is this important as you should drive properly.

@OptLab 2 года назад

@@thesensiblestreamer2958 Crashing is not necessarily your personal mistake, and a game has to reach some amount of realism or belivability whether you can drive or not. Then, body parts has to go Inside and OUTSIDE. They simply wanted to have minimal work to do, and minimum processing. It's mostly surface mapping work and ON/OFF visibility tricks. You don't seem to see the difference with grid 1. In grid 1 the legs of the cockpit fall off if your car goes upside down. Well I fail to see videos with convincing damage model of this Legend version.

@Gma7788 2 года назад

They want to attract the Mario kart people to buy this game. They don't care about loyal users of grid. I want the pure racing simulation version not the dumb story Mario kart version.

@OptLab 2 года назад

@@Gma7788 A person who understands collisions, 3d and video games is more expensive than an engineer, that's why they save costs on it. And the market is flooded with 2D ui designers, it's dirt cheap labor compared to a 3D ui designer which is rare and expensive. Most of the time they have a list of "not so qualified" employees which they don't want to fire so they give them the wrong tasks. The better employees sometimes go to better companies or even leave the video game industry for a more profitable one.

It's a more intense experience. They're totally different amplification products. They exploit amplification in different ways. Grid puts you through the washing machine. Get in to tuning the controller and the cars in grid and you'll be taken for an extreme ride.

The gossip gamers need to go away. We don't need you I've been playing and streaming grid for years. You and your frenzy need to go away. Only a few games are for you. Racing is spending your life tuning cars which is a solitary life.

@@giorgosnikolaou7219 this driving experience is extremely intense. After a race, all your emotions are drained. You just want to be quiet and not have any more input into your brain cause you must get your energy back. After some of these races 🏁, I've got to turn off the TV and go away from it. We're dealing in nano seconds. It's not easy.

I wouldn't trust you to get me a drink of coffee. Let's NOT jump right in. Oh, a 'story line' in a socially dumped car racing game. What a dumb idea. What an enormous waste of time and money. You disowned this product years ago. Stop with the fake buying frenzy and dump routine. I'm sick of you generally and this performance just makes me hate you even more. I'm NOT paying for a story line in any car racing game. If you want more Mario kart, go buy Mario cart.
