The Crew Motorfest Is Not Worth Your Money - Closed Beta Review
Вставка

- Last weekend I got to experience the closed beta of the upcoming The Crew Motorfest. I've summed up all my thoughts on the game and why I ultimately think it isn't worth your money.

Things I forgot to mention, or didn't mention because there wasn't much to talk about:
- I liked the car list, however it felt a bit bloated with many duplicates (for example having 4 copies of an RX-7 for Drift, Drag, etc.)
- Customization was decent, could have been better if they separated lights and splitters into different categories. Wheel selection is still terrible
- Still not a huge fan of the upgrading system, but it's far more tolerable than in Payback for example
- Engine sounds are actually fantastic, ingame radio had a nice song selection as well
- The addition of fine tuning is great, but misses some options (gear ratios were missing as far as I know)
-Its still Grindy as hell, 20k wasn't enough time to buy one car. yes, ONE car for 20 or 90 races
the car list is just an addition to the crew 2's one
@@yqzu Just like Forza copies car lists from their previous games (hence the car models look garbage) so does the crew, but they do update the models a ton.
I hope it gets better in the final game
Don't forget the Legends point system which are time gated in TCM!
These points can increase your nitrous power, refill speed, how much XP you earn, how much cash you earn, how fast you can travel through water, increasing your Treasure Frequency and loot quality, you drafting power, your maximum drafting distance, your speed when you get drafted, the distance whern this effect triggers, your tire wear in Pro Racing events, how fast you get your speed multiplier in drift events, how high the multiplier can get and how much extra speed you gain when you shift up in drag race events!
There are also a few minor once which I didn't list here!
You can only earn them Via the main stage by ranking up your timeline (Revisit Playlists, Compete against other Players and Explore the Island which is basically playing skill tests around the Island) or by competing in the Summit!
There's no way to earn them by playing through the game naturally like it was in the crew 2 and for me it's a Jupiter sized dealbreaker!
I will agree on no pedestrians and blurred mirrors, that needs to be fixed but what makes it even weirder is that it's not even a 1:1 of the map like tdu so blurred mirrors and having pedestrians shouldn't be a problem
this map took me like 10 min to drive around in a crown vic lol
Was TDU actually 1:1? I don't think TDU2 was 1:1.
@@myztazynizta no but it was super big it took 1 hour to go around map while this takes like 7 min
@@myztazynizta referring to the first tdu
@@SoSikWitItnot you didn't....stop the cap! 😂
Need pedestrians and fix the blurred wing mirrors
They were blurred in crew 2 as well, who used mirrors in an arcade racer anyways
pedesreians add literally nothing to the game.
@@EBG...it adds immersion and makes it feel alive
The game really needs to fix a lot of things before these
@thth41 yep like a freaking on/off light switch. Those bright taillights during daytime is balls.
An obvious negative is that the game's campaign is not playable offline.
none of the crew games can do that.
Thats how it is you pay 70 bucks min for live service so dont spend any money on it
FINALLY. Someone who actually explains the IMPORTANT parts of the game comparison. Realism, Arcadiness, driving physics etc. I had to skip all the guys only doing graphics and sand,water, destructible environment etc. Thank you sir!
I hope test drive solar crown is a good contender for this game . Between the fake ai's in freeroam, and cars that were in TC2 that still have half ass interior gauges (for ex. nismo gtr says push to start since TC2) i really hope a lot of things are fixed before released . Coming from insiders program , this beta was a step back for a lot of us who couldn't even get the game started.
I don't give about a rat's ass about Nismo GTR
solar crown will be the biggest dissappointment for sure 98%
Tbh, i'm excited for TDUSC, but due to the time that is taking and for the progress that their doing, i doubt it Will be bad but i think it will not look what we expect, even if we don't know what to expect
@@isukarse No arguments ? Great mentality. You should be another The Crew or Forza fanboy. Go look for TDU:SC trailers and wake up my man
Don t get your hopes up, it will be a miracle if it will end up being good.
For me, what makes The Crew signature feature is the massive map. Motorfest map doesn't feel massive to me, and having it set on Hawaii doesn't help either. People will just compare it with TDU.
EDIT: For FOMO Content, FH4 tried this method when they introduced Rip Rod, and to have it you need to place 1st in PvP drag race. It went as well as you expected, and this kind of event does not appear again.
Wait, you guys pay $70 on video games?
Ahoy, fellow internet booty plunder!
Yep
92 cad and some like diablo are 105 cad with taxes
Yes you need to support the hobby or else it deteriorates.
I would rather support the devs and not pay it on a service just to rent it
Honestly the only thing that keeps bugging me is how Motorfest just feels more like a DLC than its own game. It was the combination of a smaller map (yet it looks well detailed) and the whole import your TC2 collection into the game. And what worries me more is how much content can even fit in Motorfest without it immediately getting repetitive or have races just going the same way or feel the same. I havent played the Beta myself I only know some stuff from reddit and youtube posts. There were some cool additions but I'm really worried on the longetivity of motorfest because I think TC2 crammed a lot of events in because of the huge map (albeit it was mostly empty at launch). So im still cautious when it comes to this game.
Motorfest was DLC for The Crew 2 at start but they changed it and made into standalone game with big price tag. I keep telling people that game is not worth money and to don't get hyped since i spent good amount of time in insider beta.
It was a DLC but then they got greedy and made it standalone game , just like the new upcoming AC game. Ubi got lazy AF and I really hate how people are praising it and saying it will compete with Horizon. Horizon might have fallen from H3 but it's still the best one in its genre.
@@lowendplayer4259 i mean it does deserve some level of praise for what it did right but by the end of the day. Its still pretty freaking scummy what they did. Man at this point I just want a racing game that has so much potentional with no buts or just has one glaring flaw that pulls it down from how great it could be. I mean like in this video, it is a good thing it has competition, which is something i also want in the racing genre but we need competition that is also competent enough to not rely on any mtx, battle pass BS
@@demon-x3250 we sure need competition but just because we need it doesn't mean we should praise a half ass game. And new TD is coming hope it will be decent. That's only thing I'm looking forward too and NFS is long dead and with the current rumour of MW2..hope it will be good
Cant agree, the crew 2 was giant and had a load of races and they aren’t distinguishable from one another, repetitive af I can’t get myself to grind to get money anymore
You can use your car after complete a race for the first time. I think is a good way to balance the cars that game offers and your cars
Thats the thing, Why do the exact same event with your own car you modified and upgraded since you already did with another car that is presetted by the game? It kills the purpose.
Maybe they will add other events for that.
You could have some "illegal" races like the first horizon for some campaing with your own cars
Are you sure? I'm scared to death to drop $150 on a game, just to find out I can't race with the actual cars I own, and wanna drive.
@@Philminator just watch videos on it when it releases and why is it 150$ for you i dont think it costs that much
From what I heard tho, TC Motorfest still have old gen in mind, this is a cross gen game
However, I remember TC1 and TC2 have pedestrian and wildlife, so I wonder why they can't here....
I had a lot of fun playing this game and I think it nailed some aspects really well like sound design and music selection, I enjoyed the playlists (some felt a bit grindy but not much), and the driving was actually kind of engaging instead of feeling like the car was driving itself. However, I STILL think the engines Ubisoft use are just not right for racing games, as we've seen with the janky driving phyisics, the weird screen-space reflections on the cars, and the performance issues.
Another thing that really bugged me is that yesterday when I finished all the playlists, I found literally nothing to do (other than replaying them with the challenge things which I'm not even gonna bother doing tbh), I thought I would get like to use my cars in actual normal races but... there was nothing..? Like, what is the point of owning and upgrading the cars?!?! The entire thing felt like it was a really long intro to the game so I was expecting to be let free and do my own races and stuff at some point, but instead it was the battle pass thing. I assumed this was because of it being just a beta and them adding more content on launch, or at least more playlists or something.
Yet another thing I didn't understand was their attempt at making the world feel more alive with the Drivatar things driving around which on multiple ocations scared the shit out of me and made me crash into traffic (and other players) because I would mistake them with those.
I really want this game to succeed, after the massive failure TC2 was (at least to me), and because I think it felt unique enough, and competition really needs to be a thing in the racing game industry. I'll probably buy it but only on sale and if they actually add things to do.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
After a Playlist is done you can run any race in that Playlist with any car you own
Yea its literally just a DLC. Should not be a 70 dollar title.
Man snowrunner have working mirrors. And i think they will add pedestrians and animals if people start asking for them i know that they added animals in the crew 2 later with one update
But they can't fix ffb on Xbox for god knows how long
@@Fucklesticks is your wheel supported by the game?
@@mintgoldheart6126 Should be, it's probably the most popular wheel on the market. And most importantly the PC version of the game works as intended.
I downloaded the Trial, imported my Crew 2 cars, here's my thoughts:
"Take away all combat, characters, humor and intelligence of GTA V, then build an arcade racer around the driving mechanics. Now remove all the life in the world, replace it with a combination of basic traffic and erratic ghost racers."
Game feels like a demonstration for an unfinished project. Feels like being somewhere that's decorated for a party that hasn't started yet, you're there waiting with a couple other people.
So many world assets imported from Crew 2, lame stock photo signage, like this is 2006? Not paying $70 for a dev to slap stock images around the world and generic Hawaiian phrases and call it AAA.
Where does this idea come from that the quality has to be lower so it will run on PS4? Have you not played RDR2 or GT7 or any top 10 PS4 game? Only lazy devs make the "last gen" excuse.
I predict TCM will be under $30 by Christmas '23. Should be a F2P game considering the quantity of microtransactions. Go play Genshin Impact for free then explain why this is worth $70. Doom 2016 is $5 right now, you could get so much quality game time for $70, don't reward Ubisoft Ivory Tower.
I do believe the game is awesome. The biggest problem is that it's 70$. 70$ for a the crew 2 dlc
This is also coming from an ivory tower meat rider. I absolutely love the "the crew" series. But 70$ (even though its just 10$ more) is outrageous and should be at MOST 40$.
The only reason you would even think about pre-ordering it is if you loved the second game that much
@@wolfynub1343I DID like TC2 much, it was way more enjoyable to me than the first one which was a total flop imo
@@nfsiiihp Exactly! I'm surprised that some people really say that the second game is worse than the original
@@wolfynub1343 This is REALLY weird, the second game does better job at offroad and being arcade while the first game had iceskating steering and worse soundtrack and those stupid Destroy Crates missions, and the HP requirements for missions are.a blatant lie- one of stupid offroad timetrials from Crew1's main campaign reccomended me to get 200 more HP yet it was too easy to me- oh, and I liked Crew 2's offroad scenery way more than *cough* Horizon 3-5's ones *cough*
@@nfsiiihpYou guys are not alone... I do really hate the first The Crew because the physics is so broken and annoying as hell, it's pay to win and it's grindy... Getting cars in this game takes like 5 days to get em or if you want to waste your life... Well... There are races that gives you big rewards but they are like... Not worth it at all... It takes like HOURS and HOURS to finish them (1,4,6, 10!?!?!?) and your reward is... 100k... Seriously? 100k? All of that 10 hours wasted just for 100k?!? Fuck it. The Crew 2 and Motorfest is less boring. The story and gameplay and car list is alright, customization is awesome tho.
Something I’ve noticed with TC2 when the Summit requires a car that you could only get by spending CC (aka real money), like what they did either this week or last week with a Hummer variant, it becomes available for normal currency through the car bundles.
The car was initially locked behind the Motorpass, but in the Summit bundle it was 170k (normal currency)
Also, having less traffic seems like a downside when you’re just driving around at the legal speed limit, but when you’re running about with a 400mph dragster, having a full gridlock is extremely infuriating, especially when you’re trying to do any Escape challenges in the Summit.
>becomes available for normal currency through the car bundles
Knowing Ubisoft, that's getting removed in this game
@@adrianwoods2752 Motorfest doesn't have Motorpass system, but very likely have DLC after 1 year.
Was very close to buying the Gold Edition of this game when I started playing the 5 hour trial. What turned me off it was the constant ghost cars driving into you and the fact that you can't use your own car for the races. Every car is a loan car, what's the point. There's also no real story to the game
Is it true that in motorfest every car slides unnecessarily? Like even car classes that shouldnt slide that much like touring cars with their extreme downforce ore F1?
A lot of the issues at least in terms of the technological side is because they are releasing this game on old gen systems as it was originally suppose to be a expansion for The Crew 2 which is why it reuses a lot of assets. There's a reason why you can import your entire vehicle collection and liveries from TC2 and why the map is way smaller than it should be. The devs just decided to make it a standalone game (this isn't the first time ubisoft has done this) and ontop of that, the game has crossplay, which is good, but I'm almost certain the PC version has limitations due to that to prevent cheating/giving a advantage against old gen players. And while crossplay is a plus, it's only for grand races/the battle royal. You can't be in free roam with other cross play players which means you can't play through story missions with friends on other consoles. The Free roam session player count is also still really small with a 8 player limit. They aren't really treating this like a proper next gen sequel when they really should be.
On the subject of FOMO, the summit reward cars from TC2 can't even be bought in Motorfest despite them being in the shop. All you get is that "A exclusive vehicle from The Crew 2" and that's it. I'd imagine it's going to be similar with any summit cars you miss in this game.
I'm still getting the game on launch. I had a lot of fun with it. But I can't deny that it's an obvious cash grab since TC2 is really starting to show its age at this point so they are selling a expansion for full price when it's probably going to take months to a year, if not longer, to get a substantial amount of content that will make it feel like a proper sequel. If the whole fear of missing out thing doesn't bother you, you'd probably be better off waiting a few weeks to a month for the game to go on sale before you buy it. Games generally don't take long to go on sale these days.
For someone who never played TC2 and kept questioning the car import thing, this is invaluable info, I may wanna give this a pass and look into Solar Crown instead
I just watched someone play free roam + 911 Legacy playlist with their friend...
i think i wait for a good discount hehe
Playing it right now 100 percent worth the money 😊
Whenever I brake, the car just starts to slide like it's driving on soap.
No indication why and no way to control it.
Very weird.
summit cars is the best mechanic about it. it gives the sense of identity. Also its not really FOMO if those are just body kits to existing cars
I agree, his take on summit cars I disagreed with and the comment felt like it came from a lack of knowledge on the games systems
I really hope people watch this through instead of pausing the first second based off the title and making a conclusion. I enjoyed the game a good bit and this is a great, balanced review. I agree with all of the positives here and most of the negatives. I personally like the competition of the Summit, I always have, but the car requirement is ridiculous. As for the playlists, I wouldn't have noticed or been bothered by the lack of freedom but as it does bother you, it is worth mentioning.
The best part of this review to me is pointing out all of the things we tolerate in AAA racing games right now. Even though I enjoy most of them, there are annoyances in the back of my head that while they aren't dealbreakers, they are big headscratchers.
Like you thought to yourself about "Why are others copying this dialogue, no one likes this" I tend to think to myself "Why can't we get rain effects that look as good as DRIVECLUB from nearly a decade ago?" Game development is complex. But from a consumer point of view, the issues like density in traffic, graphical effects, no working mirrors etc make no sense in a product right now. When you showed that clip of TC1 with the original graphics instantly my mind went "that looked better". As a visual junkie, it just doesn't make sense to me. I was about say "but Motorfest is cross-gen" but with that Crew 1 example, there is no excuse.
Even though I enjoy Motorfest and will end up getting it (don't know when but I will) the game did have many head-scratching moments with me as well. I'd love to know why this happens with some of these games - are the visual artists just not as talented and the good ones went into other industries? Are the people working here feel like they "have" to make a festival racer and therefore feel less passionate versus a "new" project like The Crew 1? I don't know, and surely barely anyone here has any idea.
The Crew 1? Seriously?! This game is a Duke Nukem Forever of car games, I hate it
Na. It's a poor man's forza
@@19deltascout43 Leave youtube, you and OP...
I was very hyped for this game, but you've actually made me reconsider. I thought this was going to be another video where people complain about games not being "realistic" enough, but no. This is a well thought out review. Great job.
yeah the fomo aspects and technical limitations are a dealbreaker for me
The fact the map is smaller is a immediate downside, nothing else matters to me when it comes to the crew. Just one hawaii island compared to the whole lower 48, that sucks. The crew 3 should have the base map with this island, or Canada + Mexico.
I don't like the physics
You know, it's really quite amazing. The Crew Motorfest is making me want to play TDU again. What I would want from this game, TDU just does better
What is that exactly? Do you know when the new TDU come out?
@@Dsmooth974 I don't have a release date, sorry. But it's definitely a bit of a wait still
Sometime early next year. There was a closed beta for it on July 24th to the 27th
@@terrelltaylor7263 Sadly, my computer didn't meet the minimum requirements for that first testing phase
I am hearing early 2024 for TDU I pray lol
the map was great / the traffic is dynamic i think but you got a bug and didnt have any spawn . that was one of the few bright spots for me and the homies. we cruised at night and could hit top speed easier but once daytime hit , traffic increased so i think you had a bug that needs to be ironed out. i agree w most everything else
That traffic bug is from TC2. Don't think It is going tô get fixed
@@MrRyuuzakiiii that traffic bug is from TC1. Definitely not going to get fixed
I hate the fact that their wheels are horrible and u can’t Change the color to white or changing the rims to Matte or gloss
Y'all paid 70$ for trash unbound why bother now😅
i bought fast & furious crossroads deluxe edition on launch. *my ability to waste money is limitless. i will buy this game no matter what.*
WhatsApp did the deluxe Edition include?
@@knightrider6167 lol it pretty much just had the dlcs. not even all of them if i recall correctly. if you didn't get deluxe (or the game at all for that matter), you didn't miss out on much. unless you wanted some cars you couldn't have used anyway since the multiplayer, the only way to use your own cars, was dead on arrival...
@@tamas5594 ws it Worth it?
you can invite players into a crew and then you can do races in multiplayer. tc2 and tc1 had competitive multiplayer but it was barely used.
Did anything change on release?
I played the beta, for around 17 hours and loved it, to be honest, even the playlists. True you can not use your own cars, but it did not bother me at all to be fair, i enjoyed the variety of cars i had to use in those races and I also do not mind restarting them for the full games, I love the map in general and the fact that it is smaller is also good. I did not notice the missing people at all😂, same for the animals, but true they could and should add them into the game to make it more alive. For the multiplier, I only tried the Race and I loved it, was so fun and chaotic, first time in a while that I enjoyed multiplayer in a Racing game. Overall for someone that always wanted to try a Horizon game, this is the closest we get too and for someone that spent over 350 hours on The crew 2, motorfest is a massiv improvement, driving feels more fun and less weird, the map kinda feels more alive to me with all those plants (as I said, I hope they gone add people and animals, to make it better) . Even the Summit I do not mind, just sad that u have to be the top 10k for it.
I might get the game on release as I did not buy a game day one since GT7 and I want a new racing game to play for a while, hopefully years😂
Animals/people may be added when it releases completely
You say the multiplayer is fun now but wait until release
There is no racing game I know of in the modern day that doesn't have cheaters running wild, ruining the game for everyone else
small maps are never good for driving. what a cheap childish looking cash-grab this game is.
@@adrianwoods2752True about that, I hope, they will do something against that, like the possibility to report cheater etc.
@@SCORP1ONF1REThe map seems to be bigger then FH5 map, for me I found the size perfect, a map that is to big , like in The Crew 2 was just to much at least for me, so I am glad that for Motorfest it is smaller and maybe, who knows they will add map expensions like Forza does?.
And the game is not childish at all, besides some cosmetics, which Unbound also added, if you do not like them, do not add them, fot my part I had a lot of fun and surprised that I spent over 17hours on it, I though I would spent max 4-5 hours on it. But as always everyone has their own tastes and preferences so yea
if you go in a crew and enter a normal event you can invite your crew to the event to play multiplayer
Can't you play it on Ubisoft + anyway?? I'll probably just do that until it goes on sale
Strangely, the biggest deal breaker in this video is the lack of traffic & pedestrians. Such a little thing, but I play open world racing games for immersion 1st & foremost. Racing is just to get the cars I want, after that its just driving highway speeds and soaking up the view or moment.
At this point i just feel like the term "Next Gen" is marketing speak. Besides a jump in graphical power, AAA games still can't implement split-screen co-op, whether its to force the player to buy multiple copies or the console is just not as poweful as hyped up to be.
TC1 was great, I preordered TC2 because the first one was so good and was severely disappointed, and now the moment I saw TCM I knew I wasn't gonna get it. Gotta thank Ubisoft tho for convincing me never to preorder ever again
Best constructive criticism video out there so far ✊✊
You probably mentioned this in your stream but I found it weird that your name wasn't DustinEden in game, or anything close to it, so I googled it and found a previous channel of yours, loads of views on there as well! Wondering why you don't have it on your Channels tab or anything :D
Why say don't buy the game over a beta
just how did you played motorfest without having issues on the framerate???
my first thought was, wow, this game is not optimized
what do people expect from a rebranded TC2 DLC?
Can we play offline or its always online?
only online.
Great Video - I am a Fan of this game just for the 28PvP Battles alone and the car transfer and better handling and graphics (apart from 60fps but that is server issue linked) One Thing that a lot missed is that once you have finished any of the playlists you can go back in and fully configure each race/event in the event settings for any race - see Sid Waj The BEST QUICK MONEY METHOD In The Motorfest Beta!! Video shows this cool new feature which I had also missed. Keep up the Great Racing Content!
The Crew Motorfest may not worth 70$, but in our area it only take about 40$, I may buy it on launch day. Or we can wait for a count in Halloween or Christmas.
The second you talked about dialogue it went from interested to definite no buy. I won't buy another game that's insists on talking at me the entire time with nothing useful to say to the point that I want to drive my car into a tree IRL like Horizon 5 does. Not to mention the common Ubi$oft L of doing Crew Credits to buy vehicles as if it were a F2P game. And that the car list barely has anything past 2020 and so many reskins.
18:46 How and why the FRICK are the rear view mirrors still freakin blurred??? (Oh wait, its a cross gen title ofc they are catering to the old gen consoles' perfomance (Xbox One and PS4...........))
I watched an older vid of yours on your main channel about forza motorsport 6 basically having the same issue about locking you up into cars and races without freedom to drive your own cars. Horizon 3 used to be built with championships but you could also play the regular events if you wanted to.
You need to remember this was just a beta with most of the content locked and hidden so we need to wait and see about more multiplayer content and stuff closer to launch
u need to remember this is ubisoft game, expect the full content to be more or less the same as the beta
@@borizzch didn’t they say that it would have around 12 or 15 or something playlists at launch and the beta only had 5 so I would disagree
Thats false their Will be more content in the full game already Confirmed @@borizzch
I put 40 hours in beta an its better then 2nd one but anyone says its not are just trying to get content an lying out there ass.
what do you recomend me to buy nfs unbound or the crew motorfest ? I'm Just one step from buying one of these games.
I own both and think motorfest is better in almost every way
None
Ill wait for test drive solar crown
You can just play the crew for free once the game releases via free trial
They fkn imported the rearview mirrors from GTA V lmfao
While talking about the gamemode variety you forgot to mention the Formula 1 style, which now has tyre wear and pitstops
To be fair, they switched from Dunia to Snowdrop and it's actually the first racing game using Snowdrop, so probably they still need to figure out how to implement stuff. BUT I think they should definitely address the issues, that it has currently, before release.
I mostly think Motorfest tries to be a mixture of Need for Speed, Battle royale, Forza Horizon, Forza Motorsport, and some other games. But in the system of the previous The Crew games. I respect your opinion tho ^^
I'd wait till it lowers to 20 or something.
6:14 Jumping still looks funky to me but that"s all i got to say
You have presented some very good arguments for me to wait before buying. Single player is a big deal for me. If it doesn't deliver, I'm not interested in the game. The second thing is the Fomo content. I can't be bothered with that. I also play other games and don't want to have to constantly keep up to date with whether there might be something interesting somewhere for a limited time. I play games at my own pace. That's why I prefer single-player games.
I hope that one of these games will allow you to move the engine layout. There used to be a game about street racing that would allow you to move the engine to the front or the middle of the car and swap engines too. I wish I could remember the name of that game but they really made it realistic. I’d you wanted to swap a v8 into your miata you could but because there is a much space for it they wouldn’t allow make as much power as the same v8 in a bigger car because there wasn’t enough space for bigger turbos. On top of that you could add carbon fiber body panels and also if you painted the panels it would add weight. If anyone remembers this game please tell me. It might have been asetto corso or something like that.
its not the one you are looking for but I miss Redline :( I built a small engine that reved to the moon :D
Great video I think I am realism over vibes or I would like a good balance . I played the beta I likethe game but I still think the cars a just a little floaty but at least 70% better than TC2 which is a good thing
Motorfest feels like the same of everything and we gained nothing. The made in Japan playlist is cool
Finally they are not using the havok engine anymore! Made all cars feel like they're driving on Mars, like red faction guerrilla, which is incidentally also made in havok.
Might check this out if I get it for dirt cheap, not paying 70 bucks for a game with 2 currencies. At that point I can just play Real Racing on my phone for free...
3:00 it gives me vibe of TDU
When it was called Motorfest, i was hoping they were hinting that it was going to be like a spiritual successor to MOTORSTORM.
No such luck. They dont celebrate teh crashes as they should, the festival feels trash, and continues the tradition of the 70 dollar curse.
Notice every single game that's come out at 70 has been worse than games coming out at 60 base price. Even Armored Core is SLAUGHTERING right now as a decent game at 60 that knows it's a fun game above all else.
70 USD is proven to be a bad sign for all games if we go by statistics.
And yes we need more arcade racers, cuz frankly we need more like MOTORSTORM back.
There is none higher still, and we haven't had one of those new nor re mastered since the PS3/ xbox 360 age.
Game developing and publishing both have become purely disgusting at large. And its in an age where certain facts cant be kept quiet either. Unlike the first Nintendo Age where OCEAN made an incomplete RoboCop game and hid the fact by making a level that couldn't be completed in time, aside from the fact they missed a glitch in the design that let you beat it faster, and then it showed the next level was incomplete.
And when are we also going to start holding game companies legally liable when they dont complete a road map properly or change what they promise when something like Overwatch 2 suddenly bait and switches it's promise for a complete campaign ? But I could go on.
I'll just say we really need MotorStorm back and end it here.
In The Crew and The Crew 2, u had almost the entire United States to explore, but in The Crew Motorfest, u only have one of those States to explore which is Hawaii and the map is slightly smaller than that of The Crew and The Crew 2.
If you run an AMD GPU you didnt get to play at normal frames or not at all
Regarding FOMO: they could always use Summits to force people to spend money on cars, but they've never done that. Worst thing they done was make an exclusive Eclipse that was buyable with crew credits only, but they eventually reconsidered and made it available to buy for regular in-game currency. Judging by the fact that the Crew 2 monetization got progressively better with time, plus they're allowing you to import basically everything to MF, I don't think they'd ever do such a stupid thing as making Summit events restricted to paid cars. And, BTW, in Crew 2 the Platinum reward was initially given to top 3000 players, now it's top 4000, and in MF it's 10000, so things get progressively better on this front as well.
I was thinking the same thing when he brought this up, yes they could do that but they never have. It makes no sense for him to count this as a con about the game
I agree, I hated his point on FOMO, as it’s not removed content or exclusive content. Summit cars are easily one of the best additions. I like having things to show off my skill and especially a reward car makes that even cooler. It’s boring when everyone can get everything without working for it
It’s getting my 100 I played I love it ig it’s just personal opinion there are no peds cause of certain car manufacturers not allowing there cars in game with pedestrians I.e Toyota
They did the absolute bare minimum to repackage all the assets from 2 into this game. Its basically Ubisoft demanding a game out of Ivory Tower and they had to slap something together to sell at full price. The least effort possible. The in car mirrors are clear evidence of it. Its such a big deal because its such a basic bitch element. Its like not bothering to texture wheel sidewalls. Like you clearly just dont care.
I think its one of the best car games i always hated crew games bc of the handling but with motorfest the handling,the sounds everything is soo good (i played beta)
my favourite game mode in a racing game was that infection mode in dirt 3...
I'm soo not paying $70 because not only it's It's not offline, it's PS plus Required. I rather play the first crew that you can still play online without a plus.
Hell, You can even played TDU1 and 2 offline without a problem.
I think $49.99 is a sounds like a fair price for that game.
Love the Persona music in your videos ahaha
You can use other cars for playlists mate
sounds stupid, but the 60fps lock might be the dealbreaker for me. I have a 6900xt and a high refresh rate monitor and 60 fps hurt my eyes especially on fast paced games like racing games
does it at least have rtx so at least i can use my rig some way?
It does not have rtx, but also 60fps looks fine on racing games because they always use a ton of motion blur to help with the sense of speed, I'm not saying it should have the cap but its not nearly as bad as you think it is
@@Oboreru493 im mean im used to 120-140 on fh5 so idk
What a wimp, hurts your eyes. Thinks he's insulting a game but instead insulted himself 😅
@metallicafan416 sry for being used to high fps and not wanting to go back console pleb framerates... u really think I meant hurting literally? if u ever experienced high refresh rates u know what I meant by that
@randymarsh4748 so you're just an elitist then, no matter how much you complain about it, not being higher FPS doesn't change the fact that in racing games it's basically indistinguishable anyway past 60fps due to how much motion blur there is
Really want more bikes in this game
I've wasted $70 on pre-order. Can't claim my 3,000 Crew Credits without it disconnecting. Automatic like for your honesty.
Every game get’s to that 10$ eventually that’s when i grab them.
This game is not really a new game.
There is a new map, but every other aspect is the same as before.
I feel like there was a lack of originality in the game and that something like the "import your cars" will ruin progression in the game. Which was already atrocious in TC2
@@danieldaniel1210 same car models, same sounds, same physics engine and even the same cringe writing.
Why is every Crew fanboy such a sucker for sub-standard games?
I got a feeling that this was originally planned as a sort of expansion for the crew 2. With Ubisoft in the condition it is nowadays I wouldn't be surprised if they just blew the dust of a cancelled dlc project, padded it out a bit and slapped a full game pricetag on it. This is gamepass material for sure. 😂
You are 100% correct. This was essentially confirmed to have been originally planned as a DLC for the Crew 2. They just decided they could charge 70 for it and get away with it.
Another thing I dislike is no clutch on remote. Come on why can’t we add a simple clutch button🤧
Honestly the big question is, withered any game that is worth the 70$?
Compared to the cost per hour of entertainment of other products/services many games per hour are actually very cheap 😮.
I tried the trial version a few days ago. Yeah it’s got bugs. I’m not shelling out for this game until they fix it and it’s a bit cheaper i’ll carry on with the first two games
We just seen ivory tower keep adding even more content into crew 2 despite motorfest launching in less than 2 months, ivory tower proably has best game support ever seen an racing game
The Summit is a competitive format, hence it works with leaderboards. It's not a casual gathering where you get everything for free, you actually have to earn it. But if you have upgraded vehicles and put a bit effort in it, it's not that hard to get in top 10.000
It's called wasting your life spending one car and grind more money to get another one
@@K3ntucky123 Cars for Summit are always on discount. Only 1 of 4 Summit events gives a car reward, so this doesn't seem grindy to me! The grindy thing about the Summit are LegendPoints.
I don't mind the competitive format of the Live Summit too much, but the scoring should be balanced and made so that everyone can have a chance to reach the top. Sure, having an upgraded car and better affixes that boost your score give you a better chance, but I would argue that even just pure stock cars should be able to earn enough points to challenge the top. At the very least, with all the platforms being combined into the leaderboard for the summit, the cutoff for the highest tiers should be increased.
Like, seeing the much more strict cutoff in The Crew 2 gave me chills. I'm on the PS, so I have to reach at least top 11K for Platinum, but the poor blokes on Xbox are pretty much tearing each others' throats with that super strict top 2.1K cutoff for Platinum Tier.
@@burnoutknight5326no, it shouldn’t be a level playing field. It’s the endgame. It needs to reward those that put in the effort more than others. Giving a reason for you to bother going after perfect nitro chemist parts for your corvette C7 drag car.
I won't buy it because it requires a Playstation Plus subscription in order to play the game. I don't usually play online games anyways so I couldn't even play the game if I bought it.
I guess I'll be getting the new City Car Driving
No game is worth $70 nowadays...i will say that...the year 1 game content is not worth $100...thats absolutely ridiculous...and its filled with most of the cars ive been wanting in the crew 2
I like the destruction Derby car events better than the eliminator.
Dam I want Sr races on multiplayer that would suck if we can't get it
I have a 4070ti. 60 fps is a deal breaker.
I think people are going to outgrow that cramped map pretty quick
I went into this video thinking this guy is probably wrong but then at the end I was agreeing with him on everything😂😂
Good video man this is definitely a good video on the game
If I remember correctly I thought their company said this was gonna be a “FREE TO PLAY” game when they was showing their line up of games in a Ubisoft video… now it’s $70
Frame rate locked at 60fps is probably to even out the cross play feature
I don’t know but here in India I preordered it for 42$
Standard edition
My pc couldn’t even run the beta 💀
