People are complaining so much about lack of story or career progression. This is just pure racing and I love it. I just want some chaotic intense fun and I absolutely love Grid so far.
the carrer mod is so far better than Grid 2 and Autosport, it really feels like the first one
@@superninja252 But it has less than half the content of the first one which is a big fucking problem considering this game is full price.
@@honkingclown every mainstream game is full price
@@adoyaben Not all some launch at $50 even $40.
@Gibbon 😁 exactly... it's idiots like that, that make ppl skeptical about getting good games smh
"See this driver in front of me here? That's Leo Turner, he hates me....and the feelings mutual"
Didn't expect to laugh out loud 😂
"You cant have a good driving game if the driving isnt good" you just described every need for speed since 2015
U WOT M8 it’s pretty bad tbh
U WOT M8 I have
Nfs beat is cool
@@fatehabro6682 just becase you suck at it.?
@@zimworlddee919 nfs is only good for car customization now
Great review. Told me more about the game than the previous half dozen videos I watched before it.
When you played with the wheel it was so satisfying and buttery
It felt satisfying and buttery haha! Seriously made all the difference for me.
Best way to say it.
I'm getting it, brew. That's what I loved about the original Racedriver: GRiD. It just felt amazing to be in those races. My g29 is ready.
Blaze Kazama Crash damage looks like ass, what a shame.
@@zZiL341yRj736 least its better than forza
@@zZiL341yRj736 Crash damage is actually very good but very poorly implemented, unfortunately. I hope it's fixable in the future.
Your opinion is so valuable Hoki man! Carry on with it!!!
3:33 insert ridge racer type R 4 ost
Faizu so true.
Great review! I pre-ordered the ultimate edition after watching some of my favorite sim racers with early access, and so far I am *not* disappointed. Really, my only gripe is that my wheel (Thrustmaster T300RS) feels a bit sloshy in the middle, although disabling the center force scale setting helped immensely.
great vid hoki !!! i feel that if you liked original grid you'll definitely love this game. full career if you're into that too with more future content being added. didn't say much of multiplayer though. MP is severely lacking but devs have acknowledged this. i suspect a future update more like F1 MP or maybe even custom public lobbies. thx again
One of the best reviews I've ever seen!
Very nice vid! I really enjoyed Racedriver Grid 1 a ton, and was always nice to see how much detail they put into the small bodywork detail (scratches etc.)
Great review! Had no idea there was a new GRID out there. Might have to pick this up.
Much better review than I have expected. I liked it a lot.
I am looking forward to this game!!! Nice review, Hoki :)
Hey thanks CS6!
@@HokiHoshi Pleasure is mine, brotha!
3:29 omfg that crash
I cut the video a bit early but yeah that was probably the worst crash I've seen yet! Pretty much every car piled up in the tunnel
I'll stick with PCARS, for me it's the only game I've ever played that genuinely made me feel like an actual real racing driver.
Livetrack 3.0 is genius because every time you race, even on the same track it's different. It teaches you how to really drive and react to the environment and elements rather than simply remembering where puddles and other on track obstacles are like in most other games.
This review tipped me towards buying it after being on the fence for a few days. I'll definitely feel the shortcomings of the track selection (which dlc won't help because they most likely won't add career events) but my G29 is ready for some solid racing. The race length needs to be customisable though, 2-3 laps simply aren't enough.
@Alex Sonne yes, my bad, I've read the season pass description in the meantime and it's true. Well, that's pretty good.
Amazing review, well done!
What makes Grid 2019 different? The pure frustration of what might have been compared with what is. Spending £200.00 on a Logitech G29 wheel isn’t an option for many, buying one simply to get more from Grid 2019 is pure madness
As amazing as the OG GRiD was, this seems like an incremental step. Expected more tbh. Also, there are some missing vehicle physics in first person/cockpit mode. If there was a level on the dashboard, the bubble wouldn't move...at all. Lighting was impressive though!
Great review, now i feel like i want to get it.
Excellent review. Conveys it's a game all about the meat of the experience; in this case, the racing. Has got me interested.
Awesome review. Still deciding if I should buy this and I’m glad u covered driving with a wheel. Also my wife is a big fan of Neil deGrasse Tyson, but not a fan of video games.
Thanks to your opinion I know for sure that I won’t buy the game. I had both Grid 2 and Autosport and my main concern about the new part was if the handling model is so twitchy and awkward on the controller as it was in the before games. Codie’s games are just made to enjoy with the wheel! I had to use a lot of assists to slightly enjoy driving in both grids and dirt rally. It’s a shame cause otherwise this great looks great both gameplay and graphics wise and I would definitely love to play it. The honesty of your opinions is what makes them so relevant. Thank you!
Van Gogh Starry Night comparison.. thumbs up mate. You'll go far Son
I'm glad people are appreciating that 😄
What a cracking review.
Good video and review, cheers man!

It's been a while since I've put decent effort into a driving game. This one looks like a winner.
Great review! The game looks really interesting. I have a question though, did you play it on PC? If so, how well is it optimised?
I play on PC yeah, with max settings on my 2060 super it ran between 120-140fps. Was super smooth for me!
HokiHoshi Great thanks!
Nice review. 👍
I've always felt the handling of the cars in grid, to be way off.
That instant loss of grip with no chance to correct it feels horribly unpredictable.
Since I don't have a wheel (that works lol) to improve this, then I'll be giving it a miss for sure.
Nice review !!
Although I haven't played it yet, from your description I get the feeling that this game is somewhat reminiscent of Gran Turismo 3? Perfect middle ground between arcade and sim physics, AI drivers aren't just moving obstacles and they actually put up a fight, small but diverse car collection etc
AHA! I was right about what you were reviewing. (I’m Kuthlive on the discord)
lol, yes you were! Hey Kuthlive :)
I just bought this game a week ago, it's not a bad game, nor am I crazy about it either. If you like arcade styles racing over sim racing, it's perfect for you.
Shift 1 had some good simulated driving mechanics, i finished game with my Logitech wheel with inside camera, it was very satisfying to do that, almost felt like i am driving for real :D
Oh man, Shift games have been totally blanked from my memory until I saw this comment, I would love another Shift game!!
@@HokiHoshi hehe, i liked them, simple enough, but first Shift with Ferrari and other cars DLC was somehow better then Shift 2, cars physix in Shift 2 bugs much more.
Shift 1 still has the best driving model I have ever experienced. It's still my favorite racing game. I wonder how it compares to this new GRID.
p.s. I hated Shift 2. Driving was off.
You have your facts, good content
This is a fantastic game.
As someone who played the old grid, the drift system on old grid was fantastic and truly genuine for me i prefer drift system from old Grid than these shitty Need for Speed drift systems. I really feel like Grid is mostly for casual players( the type who likes racing games but not enough to play realistic racing games like Asseto Corsa).
Although customization is poor on grid, i think the option to have your team with another driver, brands on ur car, winnings, leaderboard, etc. The addition of personalities to NPC's was really creative because makes you be better competitive during the race and perhaps may give you the feel your are playing against online players.
I expect this game to be really fun to play.
Great review!
Great review,
CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE NOT MENTIONED ENGINE SOUNDS! CARS IN THE GAME SOUND LIKE REAL CARS!
I don't try any other reviews except yours. How does this driving feel compare to the feel of Forza Horizon 4? Also, did you have to make any custom changes to your wheel settings for the G29? Thanks!
The wheel was pretty much plug and play for me although I did mess with the clutch dead zone as it sometimes caused me to miss shifts. Overall though the wheel feels so much better than Forza imo, I never really felt like I had control in the higher power cars in Forza and the steering always felt off, in GRID its seriously amazing, feels like a sim but just with a really nice to drive car
I've had this game for a week now and I'm losing sleep over it!
'I decided to put down my controller and pick up my wheel'
Me watching who only use keyboard....XD
The best part of the original was the feeling of speed especially when you got to top tier.
Does this new one allow higher frame rates on pc ie 120hz ?
First time i tried it was on Xbox 1x on my dads console as i bought it for him for his 61st
and it looked awesome. Hdr was perfect and the feel of speed reminded me of the original.
this game is very underrated
This makes sense everytime I played grid it was at a arcade.
Re the pad v wheel comments; I use a pad. If you go into the settings and change steering sensitivity UP to maximum, and steering linearity DOWN to zero the cars seem to handle a lot better. My driving improved considerably once I’d changed these. Apart from the AI being all over the place imo, I’m really enjoying Grid so far.
Thanks for this. An informative review that told me exactly what I needed to know. I just want a pure racing experience, and this seems to be just that. GT Sport sacrificed a lot of the fun for realism, and FH4 had far less emphasis on actual racing in favour of stunts, drifting, and those crappy Horizon stories. This sounds like something I’ll enjoy.
The original still looks so much better. I'm still getting this, but hoped for more
My main problem I see with grid is the absolute lack of speed. Even at top speed it still feels like ya going really slow. Cars look floaty too. Think I'll wait for a sale.
This looks like a perfect blend of simulator and action (need for speed for example) for a racing game
KEEP RACING GREAT
Grid looks awesome. Also didn't codemasters absolve the Driveclub team from Sony?
Need for speed should never be said before gt or forza. Nice vid tho I been looking for something a lil different from the other racing games out there.
Beautiful cars in this game
The AI personality makes me wonna play the game
Grid is my fav racing game, but xbox won't make it backwards compatible
3:30 why did you cut away from the best moment? We demand a clip of that
I AGREE
THUMBS UP SO HE CAN SEE I WANT THE REPLAY OF THAT RACE
They did not have to sacrifice realistic physics to give ai individual personalities...
Is destruction derby back? Because in the original I've spent 20 hours just in that mode. Something ridiculously catchy about that mode... Anyway, thank for the review.
Nope it’s just racing, no derby or drift
This has convinced me of two things: Ray tracing is pointless. HDR monitors are gonna be awesome.
Anyone else miss the old gt games? I enjoyed gt3 and gt4 more than sport. Most of all I miss being able to use the d pad to drive with.
Yep, loving the game with my g29. I actually enjoy this more than FH4. I guess I just got tired of Forza. But seriously guys, handling in this game with a wheel is amazing. FFB is not that great though.
Other reviewers say that handling feels the same on every car. Also all cars oversteer with easy correction to end slide. Even gt and prototype cars oversteer and drift. Is that the case?
What was the song at the beginning ?
True
can two players# play it locally in split screen mode?
Why is there no demo for this game?
Hey if it doesn't have a dress up barbie and 300 cars I don't drive or the chance to race against a happy meal toy with a broken A.I., I'm not interested. It does sound like a racing game focused on racing.
Is it me or most of maps are from Grid 1&2?
Å great racing game!
Were those formula Mazda's?
Does it have hill climbs ?
Simcade sure, but much more on the arcade side.
Basically a new project gotham! And that's amazing!
Wow with this and Wreckfest out my console is gonna be super busy!!! And what makes GRID stand out from games like NFS? Ummmmmm the fact that it's not utter garbage like pretty much every NFS that they've put out since NFSHPS2.
it's a mixed bag IMO, feels like 1/2 game.
handling & looks are great but some times cars just handle oddly.
funny how the AI drivers can mess you up so easily but it's not the same doing it to them.
game Needs more tracks, cars & seasons added plus customizing & picking what you want out of multiplayer.
right now you just get quick connect & that's ALL for MP.........................:(
I think it should be changed from racing game to arcade racing game. I have all the previous incarnations of GRID.
I no longer drive this type of arcade racer. I consentrate on racing Sims that have far less gimmicks just to keep you interested.
As in everything, everyone has their preference.
I prefer actual racing Sims.
Best wishes.
Is this the same one on switch? If so I might pick it up I’d love a good mobile racing game
Same franchise but the switch version is a port of an older game! Still probably the best switch racing game if you like real cars tho
Josh Cranfill no
No, completely different game.
Do you think GRID is better than Forza 4???
My heart break a little every time a reviewer complaning of the handling of an arcade racing game. When these game usually have a unique play style you have to learn. In GRID the game always punished you if you over used the throttle. Sad to see that people are forget these thing. This is why we can't get a proper racing arcade racing game nowadays.
Assetto corsa and iRacing changed the way i look at games like this. It just feels way too arcade like
If grid had the nurburgring tho
Forza Motorsport is a thing you know.
Drive Club Is Better because of it's concept get exp level up unlock car it's just not about the fun factor. Have fun AND Achieve something.
Today's kids, always gotta have a reward or why do it smh
@@metallicafan416 The Reward is better than playing for nothing btw am not today's generation kid am old skool 90s anyways My point is we all play games to progress and achieve something whether it's story or campaign based game or leveling up exp etc type of game. Drive Club is the only one where you can play a single event race (not Campaign) and still gain exp and level up to unlock your next badass car.
Are there more then 20 cars?
There are 70 cars at launch
:)
Suggestion for grid 2019: more cars and maps
cards confirmed being DLC and tracks for free
they said they will add modes as well
No mention of online?
Another review I watched was extremely unimpressed with the way Multiplayer has been implemented - only option is randomly selected track and class and with AI featuring in the races !
I all for fun. Fun and escapism is why I spend time playing games. Grid 2019 doesn’t look or sound as good as the original Grid. Graphics aside this reboot comes across as a sanitised, more forgiving version so I’ll wait for deep sale or pass.
No other game has given you a better feeling of what it’s like to race? Wow. That’s huge. I’ll still wait for deep sale or pass.
Rubbish
Stephen Brook I’d stop short of calling Grid rubbish, just disappointing
Is it just me or do the cars look like they have no suspension at all? There is no bouncing, body-roll etc. they all look like driving on rails.
Hopefully people dont play bumper cars like gt sport
Why isn't it Grid 3
Ask someone else
You're right about feeling like a legend driving with wheel this game. Sim's make overtaking someone so boring - you need to be fully concentrating on the braking and somehow "sterile" .. The other guy have to be fair and let you pass him-but there are assholes also and they can apsolutely ruin your day for no reason.Even blue-flagged ones...
Idk something about this game just look wierd maybe it's just me
It doesn't look like the cars drive on their wheels it's like they have a central wheel the way they wiggle around
probably something they designed around the 1st person view, dirt feels that way as well
Crash physics/damage looks like ass, man this is 2019.
No customization. No money.
looks slow as hell and like you have no grip
