It’s like the game took Forza 5 and made it fun. It’s exactly what I was craving. A nice looking Arcadish racer that pushes boundaries and does quirky things, like the hot wheels track in the festival. It’s not too crazy and looks natural
I've been playing TC, FH, and Test Drive (FH's inspiration) since all of their conceptions and recently Horizon just feels... off. It's like it just insults your intelligence all the time. The game itself is easy, cars and money are thrown at you, metas are everywhere, and the constant upbeat tone is nauseating at best. And that radio stays OFF for reasons I don't have to explain. TC feels and looks more serious about you driving and making the most of the (rather impressive) map and is much more polished than the last installment. And the handling model isn't that realistic, but it's fun. Split Second, NFS MW, and Dirt 3 aren't very realistic if at all but they feel amazing. FH is in a gray area and needs to go back to what it was: a Festival for Enthusiasts, not a glorified Cars and Coffee.
It's called The Crew because it's the game series and with The Crew 1 the initial idea was to drive with your own Crew in the USA, so they kept the name
@@Whiterun_Gaurd technically you can do that too in the crew 2 but given how there's summits and pvp that require you to have built street cars etc you can't just ignore your lower cars because you won't be able to unlock the summit cars/vanities and also since you can do any event with any car there's no point in sticking to the hypercars since for some short tight courses the street cars are actually better since they don't overpower through the straights and crash in the corners
@gnikolaou21 if you're gonna no life it, it can take up to only an hour or so for a Playlist. But there's a lot of playlists, which of course is amazing
The whole time playing this game all I can think is "damn this game would be so good with the Forza Horizon handling and physics" the game just feels so stiff. In saying that, the game definitely feels better than TC2
The more I played the more it felt like a dlc expansion that had extra time making a bigger map, then I found out thats exactly what it was. You can definitely tell.
@@siposimi1816Because we keep buying it, Maybe they should stop being greedy. Doesn’t matter if we stop buying they’ll just make a new project that’s ass.
Ah. Played the crew2 on my ps4 for a long time and honestly… it’s good. BUT: it’s missing something. I can’t tell you exactly what it is, maybe a story or some kind of interaction with the world, but it feels just so empty. Hope the Motorfest will deliver something good again.
No real story, only playlists which are a collection of races/events following a certain theme. They are well done and interesting, but I wish more was done.
More specifically the story is a lot better/ progress. Its based on the history of cars and the island itself, the world doesnt feel bland and the sounds of the cars are so good. I recommend playing with all assists off, the handling feels more natural. Handling is nothing like the crew 2, large improvement
disappointed on the map. As someone who was born and raised on Oahu the streets aren't accurate and some of the neighborhoods are inacurate. They coulda done better!
This is absolutely the best driving game made to date. The graphics are stunning. The control is spot on I use a wheel. The thing I really like is the AI drivers don't sneak up behind you and give you the pit maneuver. Spinning You out of control like my other racing games do. But I did turn voice's off. They were driving me nuts It was like listening to a babbling tweaker lol. Music too turned off I like hearing the car and the road effects without the music covering them up. Big tip for more realism Turn all driving aids off so you feel like you actually driving the car and not the computer.
@@VintageMatthews I didn't turn the voices off, since, and I know I'm one of the few that does this, but I enjoy the voice acting, even if it's thr cringiest dialogue, but an AI voice? Come on ubi....
@@Max_Cony Grand race, ranked summit races, online races, map has more shit to do than fh5, graphics are DEFINITELY not 07. I grew up with 2000s games so i can confirm that much, 60fps is a helluva lot better than 30 on console so thats a compliment. Can support multiple res up to 4k, ACTUAL GOOD EXHAUST SOUNDS, and i can tell you aint played this at all or crew. Matter of fact in crew you also have multiple vehicle types. lmao
The thing I’ve hated with the crew is the constant you have to be here and participate everyday every week or else you miss out on cool cars you’ll never get ever again
@Phendranaguardianwhile i agree with you that this type of FOMO not my style since i've experienced it alot of times on TC2, and probably will experience it with motorfest even more. They're not gone 'forever'. Summits replay eventually, some have already been back a few times now on TC2. They even rebalenced the amount of people being able to get the cars across all platforms on the crew 2 so more people are able to get them. It's (almost) dead easy now.
@Phendranaguardianthing about those cars, they're just technically reskins. You might miss out on those special ones, but you still have access to em to buy in game. An more often then not people always make liveries of em, so you technically don't miss out on any of them lol.
As an avid forza fan, always have been. The Crew beats Forza out of the water. Like damn, I never thought an open world raving sim could do this. BUT BOOM. Moterfest is where its at.
The graphics are nearly quite as good as Forza horizon 5's. That game is obviously the best. Though I hope this is PS4 footage or just in the works still. Probs won't buy this game for awhile
Looks good but I'm not paying full price for this which in Canada is 89.99. I'll wait for a good discount because I feel like I wouldn't play this game for more than 30-40 hours top.
I find the roads the worst part about the crew. They’re all so blank and unrealistically smooth. As well as too wide. For such a smaller map than the crew 2. The map still feels as poorly put together. The downtown buildings don’t go together and the infrastructure makes zero sense.
i’ve got similar feelings to this vid but i wanna add some stuff. the voice acting is probably the worst part of this game, especially cara, they definitely need an option to turn that off. there’s also just not really any progression; you don’t drive your own cars for most of the game, and the lack of just general races where you can drive your own builds kinda sucks, you only really drive your own cars in freeroam and the grand races. the handling is pretty good but a lot of cars feel like they have snap oversteer and it’s extremely hard to correct the car once it starts sliding, once you start drifting you’re pretty much stuck there til you stop
What about the races after you finish a playlist? If you’re farming money, you can redo those. You’ll have the option to drive your own car (almost any of your owned car, regardless of the class) or stick with the loaner. I wouldn’t say it’s lacking, it’s there. You just have to finish the playlists first.
@@_shuddie Yes. Once you finish the playlist, you can redo it with any car, along with customizing the weather and time of day. And i mean any car. For example, you can have monster trucks racing in the Made in Japan races. Or, if you’re crazy enough, have hypercars racing on the rally/dirt races.
I’m okay with how the xp progression currently works with the 3 timelines, then legend lvls afterwards. Just wish there were more rewards for leveling up
@@jimiblades8228 your response is very much smells like a fanboy nothing else, forza does not murder this game, their some aspects crew motorfest actully beating fh5 in, forza horizon has some competetion, fh5 has become sterile at this point, and it dosent hurt to play something new, for me there is just nothing to do in fh5 as i had it since lunch i got bored of it, if their was a new horizon game releasing at the same time things might be different but its an 2 year old game and i have already done everything it has to offer
@@andreasmoller9798 it still doesn't compare the game sucks the steering sucks the driving sucks the drifting sucks don't even that's good about the game is it's pretty that's it it's a blatant copy hack Aldi version of Forza is what it is but you can try to make it popular and you can type it up and talk it up on your little wack ass RU-vid channel but if it's not going to help real Gamers know this game is s***
I know it has nothing to do with the racing but why do all the characters look awful? It looks like they made an effort to make them look like the most obvnoxious people on earth and the voice actors make it even worse. I hope the new Test Drive will take a step in another direction.
Well if it's only on Epic that's gonna be a hard pass.. Refuse to support a dev that goes with one distributor only. EPIC is a joke at best and I sure as heck won't give them a dime
The only thing i dont like is that you cant use your own cars its just playlists that loan you cars so dont see the point in havin your own cars cuz you dont actualy use them unless your in free roam!
I have the first two games which I still enjoy on the Xbox. I’ve just tried the new one I personally thought it was crap. Having said that they do give you a trial which is the Xbox One version which looks crap on a series. X. Doesn’t even play that good.. I will not be shelling out for this game
It looks and is so casual. The atmosphere of some races are meh. Would be nice to get a Drive Club open world game - something geared more for the enthusiast with depth, but still have that arcade touch.
Just wait for test drive unlimited solar crown, that game will shit all over this game. Next gen only as well, about time games were stopped being made for last gen as it's holding back the capabilities of current gen so so much.
Its been a lot better than previous games, not as cringe/ the conversations dont sound as forced. Ive had 2 or 3 narrated verses that did but its not too bad
Game isn't out yet technically, give it time, once players start picking up the game pvp will get better. Grand races are fun, but it's a racing game, pvp is racing other people lol. There's demolition derby and stuff too.
I’m enjoying it coming from playing forza for years I picked up the crew 2 last year and grinded the game and it’s what I’m looking for tbh and they constantly update the game so I can’t wait to see how the keep Updating the game and improving it
Love this game but I wish they fix the screen tearing and the frame rate for fidelity mode. At least on the series x it’s horrible haven’t tried it on PS5 yet
nah it runs like shit on ps5 and haptic feedback broken. I played forza 5 and gt7 and all other racing games, every 1 of them runs and feels better only good thing in the crew is the sounds and the events are more fun and u can grind them over and over and not forced to do dumb shit like forza. The world yea looks alright but tbh forze 5 looks much better still. but yea paid 3 days early gaming and game can't even handle 30 fps on performence mode it feels like and stuttering every turn u take....
I have zero issues running this on ps5. Your issues are probably because you need to clean your dirty ass ps5 lol. Most all issues stim from a dirty console.
