Couple of things, had to record on 2k monitor, and with a splitter and capture card colors are a bit dull. Game looks great, just hard to capture that with my setup.
Amen. For twenty years WoO 2002 has been the best single player Sprintcar game on the market, but iRacing and Monster Games together have come out swinging. Easily the spiritual sequel to that game.
Great great game 9/10 for me. Improvements moving forward: 1. Load screen at the track needs to be in the pit area. Not at a random shed 2. Cars involved in a yellow get moved to the back of the field 3. Changing track conditions 4. Race attrition & DNFs especially for AI cars who crash 5.Special events like Knoxville Nats or The dream with different formats 6. Better designed AI cars and improved options in the paint booth
Changing track conditions is very unlikely. What's more likely though is reduced handling throughout the races, which sort of fills that. Sure it's not perfect but it's something in that direction. The OP mentioned the Supercross games, I know that's the one thing people have been yearning for in moto games but it's just too hard to program for these small niche game developers. There are a handful of things that could be very easily changed/fixed.
Man, I grew up with DTR and Dirt to Daytona. One of my favourites to play when I was a kid was Sprint Cars:Road to Eldora. Great seeing this game and glad you decided to record it!
My mom used to work with one of the 305 drivers you scrolled by. Really cool to see them add real people even at the lower levels and not just random names.
Very strong game. Certain improvements should be made if they do more games like this in the future (especially the damage because its bad), but, this is a hell of of an entry. Cant remember the last time i was so hooked on a racing game
@@kneebon5 for sure. The crashes themselves in the game work very well actually, but the lack of damage (especially to the AI which seems to never get any) kinda makes it weird. Would like to see cars be able to be eliminated from damage atleast.
I played their titles as a kid too. I was shocked when I returned to play that game ~6 years ago and it still had an active community at that point. Definitely a forgotten classic.
Love it. Nick says he wants a game to play and not make content for, then does exactly what he said he was not going to do. All joking aside I am glad you did make the content. I was very curious on this game and I feel like your opinions line up with mine. This game looks like the SRX game, but with different cars. However I really enjoyed SRX so I am okay with that. Thank you for sharing your opinions and for the content. I enjoy it a lot.
Nascar heat 5 did a good job I think personally. If they combined with Iracing. I think you could be looking at nascars best game yet...but I could be wrong.
Thanks for the upload man. I was curious as to how they’d do with a console game and hopefully they can take over more of the market , looks pretty good!
Sorry to bombard you with comments tonight my man, but 2 other things stuck out to me, 1 being, I mentioned Husets in the other comment, Grant Park from what I can tell is an amalgamation of Huset's and Jackson Motorplex (both owned and operated by the same guy). Essentially it's Huset's "grounds" and Jackson's Track. The towers, grandstand on the side of the hill like that, concrete infield, that's Huset's 100%. The racetrack is like Knoxville but shrunk down, And 2, the attention to detail in this game, like when you're showing off the Paint booth, there's a beadlock on the inside of the left rear just like there really is. Who in the hell would ever notice that on the racetrack, but they did it. The Zeuses, the fuel lines, the bolts that hold on the nerf bars and the bumpers, totally right. Even the pins in the wing tree are right. The attention to detail in that regard is outrageous.
Great vid Nick. Pity we won't get to see you do your whole career in this game as I am sure there will be a lot of interest but can understand how difficult it was for you to even get this out with the splitter and all. The engine sound was a tad loud compared to your voice. Could hear you but it only just. I'm looking forward to getting it but as it stands no stores here in Australia are stocking it from what I can find so will have to just buy from Playstation Store.
Yeah I was worried it would be too difficult with a controller but seems well balanced. My brother has a wheel and says he can feel the car tighten on the cushion better than he can in iracing
Looks really nice. A nice departure from the hustle and bustle of Iracing. Especially when you want to just do some single player racing. Nice introduction video of this game. Thanks for putting in the time for this game Nick. certainly, has my interest peaked.
I remember seeing someone review the game before it came out and the 360 guys were a lot of iracing pro drivers. I guess they need to be unlocked or something idk, but my buddy Tyler Schell is in it so that's cool
Ok so 3rd comment but just wanna say really good video and the game really does look and seem to play amazing for being iracings first attempt at console racing. It's not perfect but damn it looks like so much fun and with the big blocks coming next month I cannot wait. Maybe they can fix some of the things that would put this game over the edge with a few patches/updates. I will be actually buying a physical copy tomorrow and then gonna get it digital on my Xbox series S until I get series X. Thanx for the video.
Looks quite good, although one thing in future if you're looking to do a bit more console racing or videos on this turn the game audio down a bit. Was a bit hard to hear when the engine's running while racing.
giving me road to knoxville vibes. would love to see some midgets or something too. i agree with what youre saying about having whelen etc. dirt 2 daytona kinda feel. its fantastic on my series x, blows the tony stewart games out of the water. thanks for doing this review nick i probably would not have bought it otherwise.
ive been talking to austin from armed4gaming a lot about it, just went and got it today and absolutely love it! Just waitign for the shit to download ing so i can do career. Awesome video!
@@kneebon5 oh yeah definetly I have been running the street stocks with a g29 wheel. I'm like 3 seasons in and the car is like 50% upgraded. I hate Kokomo the most. Same for iracing. I hate kokomo and fairbury but i like fairbury in the woo game. Great Game
your state must not have great locals. That’s why I love living in PA , they included the PA Posse in the game. So it’s awesome to be able to race against them 😊
Oh yeah I've had it in 305s the two tracks I did here weren't very good at showcasing the ai. Really happy with how they race. Much better than iracing oval ai
Glad to see they finally fixed Tony Stewart’s All American Racing. They attempted it in NASCAR Heat 5 but destroyed the physics. This game looks a lot more polished. If they just fix the throttle control it would be about complete.
I downloaded a Dirt Track Racing 2 .iso back in the day. It had a virus attached to it. Still installed and played the game. Just had to deal with the virus first.
This game looks absolutely amazing. I think I am gonna pick up a copy around Xmas time or so. So I know a dumb question to some but what are the perks of the gold edition?
@@kneebon5 Oh wow I love watching racing from Lucas Oil Speedway on the Roku channel and Pluto TV with Mav TV. I'm amped to get the game I mean the last true dirt game I played was road to Eldora on Ps2 which was around 08 or so. I am excited to play the game and its cool to have such an in depth perspective on it. I like seeing others play and review the game before getting a game. The last time I didn't was Heat Evolution and my God that was bad lol.
Maybe I need to buy an Xbox and give this a shot. It might just replace the iRacing. I enjoy the iRacing but it is too expensive when you spend most of your time getting run over, or screwed by a system that can not seem to manage a simple dirt race. I am a Playstation guy but sadly the G920 wheel that I purchased is set up for xbox. :( lol Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the iRacing when it works properly, but there are too many people who drive over their heads in it. I pay to race, not get crashed. Accidents happen, but come on man! I am not the fastest guy on the block, I am older and slower than I used to be, which pretty much makes me a moving target no matter how hard I try to give room. lol Thanks for making this video, I have been waiting for someone to create a more honest video around this game. Most of the ones that I have watched have been more like sales pitches for it.
I think if you like the competitiveness of iRacing this won't be able to fill that gap. Yes when you get wrecked it sucks, but winning against real people just gives that extra rush compared to winning in this game. I did the same with my TS-XW didn't get the playstation version and so can only run controller with this game.
I really wish it had Saturday Night Speedways calendar system. Right now there is no connection between series, no years, it's just separate seasons that don't interact. The management aspect of that calendar would add a lot
Iracing is obviously better, but not really the same type. It's a good getaway game from ratings and rules. Just have fun and work to progress your team on this.
as a PC sim racer that still loves to play games with a controller (even with FPS games), it's incredibly disappointing to not see this game released on Steam. I've been an iRacing subscriber for 10 years, and haven't gotten any official word as to why this game isn't on PC. People like to say "because iRacing is on PC, they don't want to compete with themselves". I don't want to buy that explanation. I want to play an arcade racing game on my controller. I don't have a gaming console.
Anyone have any thoughts on whether I should buy this if I already have the SRX Game? I don't care about the specific drivers in the game, just wasn't sure if it was a significant enough upgrade
Wow this game looks great, might buy it. So I’m finally, finally moved. Probably going to get back to iracing soon because I miss it and I don’t want to wait for a Black Friday deal. I know your league is locked, if it’s even still going I haven’t watched UA-cam in 3 weeks I’ve been so busy. So when I resub I’ll just pop in to watch, should be fun. That is if Ian doesn’t wipe my brand new house off the map in about 12 hours, haha.
@@kneebon5 I’m 15 miles inland from Myrtle Beach, but this storm seems to be hell bent on blasting straight between Charleston and me, so we will see. Supposed to weaken and move through the region quickly. House came with Kevlar storm screens but no one is using them so I think it’s gonna work out.
I have a fanatec DD and the cars don't stay straight is it me or the game. I know you have to easy on the has, but the car always starts out just in drive able
i have three real complaints. everything else is just nit-picky. 1. the tracks need to change during a race. 2. there needs to be a penalty for driving bad and crashing. part of what made WOO sprints car 2002 so paranoia inducing and awesome was that you never felt safe in that game. any lap you could actually do any number of things to damage your car and then you were screwed. the damage system in this game could really use improvement. 3. some of the fantasy tracks just didnt need to be in the game. yes, many of the fantasy tracks actually resemble ( and im sure are based on) real tracks but many are just unnecessary, in my opinion. overall, though, this game is on the same shelf as WOO 2002, and that shelf is up very, very high.
Yeah the cost of racing isn't there. I wish you had to pick and choose based on distance where to go. Also hate how the different series aren't really connected in time. Saturday Night Speedway did that really well having to choose where you were we going to race.
@@kneebon5 yes. i think the easiest way would have been to literally just have a monthly calender with the events marked on it. if multiple series are at the same track on the same day then you can run multiple classes on that calendar day. and, yes, the cost thing in career mode is just weird, to be honest. nobody is paying 250,000 dollars for a motor to put in a crate late model. and the prestige points gap needed to go from regional to national is actually insanely too large. i think the way they should have handled the travel aspect is to base it on what type of transportation you can afford. for example: open trailer= local (≈ 5k dollars) box trailer= regional ( ≈30k) car hauler= ( ≈200 k) you could then decide which is more important: traveling with a weaker car or staying local and investing all your money in your car. I did career mode for a while and got bored with it. now i am just doing single events and having a blast.
To me this looks the same as the tony Stewart games but with better graphics. The tony Stewart games were just bad. What sucks is I bought all those one just cuz its dirt, but can't buy this one because it's not on pc
Maybe this will pull the MArio Kart drivers from iRacing and let the others race! These console users think iRacing is MArio Kart and show no respect toothers!
Seems to be an american thing to drive just on ovals, eh? The game looks interesting but just ovals seems pretty boring to me...good there's still Dirt Rally 2.0 with its Rally Cross events in it 👍🏻
Cross Generation will be available on the Xbox. The PS5 and PS4 versions of the game can not play against each other. However, PS5 users can have the PS4 version installed and use that to play online races with PS4 users. No cross console
The Tony Stewart's sprint car games are fun, and cheaper if u guys don't have 49$$ buy the Tony Stewart game. This is the same game honestly, but WOo game does it way better. And I can drive as Sammy Swindell really can't beat that lol. Edit: after playing it for a lil while now, Wow this game may be on the same game engine but wow it plays so much better than Tony Stewart's sprint car racing. This is really an amazing game!.
I want to know your opinion after a month, I'm just not sold yet, I think I need to play it before I buy it, I just dont know, Im scared of another disapointment. I love racing, I play Dirt to daytona,, Nr2003, and the assetto corsa games. I truly hope it is good, Iracing is ok, but people are mean!!! I can keep my car straight but Im slow as molasses, people dont want to give tips, so B lisence in a month irating high at 1600, racing community is kinda like a rotten tomato and I just want a good AI racing game at this point sorry I ranted
This has great AI that you can tune. I've had some really great races with AI. You can pretty much set this game tp whatever you want, which is how it should be.
@@kneebon5 When I get it, we will see, I trust you more than most, if I am disappointed I will never get a console game again, 5 years later I do 😂, Isn't kinda sad that a 19 year old plays a game that's as old has him though...
@@k9burnouts544 console games have been so disappointing for so long. Really hope the new NCAA football game is like this, brings back the the good old days feelings.
@@kneebon5 F1 games have been janked, it's like no one can make a racing game, gran Turismo is trash too, but it is what it is, maybe video games are done for
@@k9burnouts544 yeah GT was fun back in the day everyone pushing for online and ways to get more money out of you. I'm hopeful iracing can get the nascar side of things on console one day.
Couple of things, had to record on 2k monitor, and with a splitter and capture card colors are a bit dull. Game looks great, just hard to capture that with my setup.
When I tap on your vid it says no stream?
@@russellmorseman5902 it does that sometimes on iPhone when I release something. No idea why
@@kneebon5 ok man love your vids and do u have discord or something so I can race with u sometime.
@@russellmorseman5902 no just have the league I run in iracing and then random hosted, won't be doing anything with this game though
@@kneebon5 ok so u can’t give me your discord or u don’t have it sorry if I’m asking to much man for iracing
Only took 20 years, but it looks like WoO 2002 finally got its sequel. Thanks for doing this.
Yeah has been so long since we have had something this good, even when you look at NASCAR stuff things went downhill around 2008.
To be fair the Xbox 360 version that came out was really good as well
I'm new to this type of racing game. Is "WoO" World Of Outlaws?
@@uppercutgrandma4425 yes
Amen. For twenty years WoO 2002 has been the best single player Sprintcar game on the market, but iRacing and Monster Games together have come out swinging. Easily the spiritual sequel to that game.
Great great game 9/10 for me. Improvements moving forward:
1. Load screen at the track needs to be in the pit area. Not at a random shed
2. Cars involved in a yellow get moved to the back of the field
3. Changing track conditions
4. Race attrition & DNFs especially for AI cars who crash
5.Special events like Knoxville Nats or The dream with different formats

Im actually really impressed with this game, i didnt know it was possible to get good console racing games in 2022
I been waiting on your opinions on this cause you're 100 percent honest about things. I guess I'm gonna get this game then lol
It's worth it.
Super fun man
Man, I grew up with DTR and Dirt to Daytona. One of my favourites to play when I was a kid was Sprint Cars:Road to Eldora. Great seeing this game and glad you decided to record it!
Dirt to Daytona hell yeah!!!
Phenomenal game. I can't get enough of it. Great job monster games and iRacing
My mom used to work with one of the 305 drivers you scrolled by. Really cool to see them add real people even at the lower levels and not just random names.
It is! I also noticed the use of their Pro Series Driver's names in the late models, which is also really cool
First review I've seen of this game for ps4, and someone with Sim experience, can't wait to get the game after this hurricane
Been waiting for someone I recognize from the more hardcore sim racing scene to give this one a look. Thanks man.
Very strong game. Certain improvements should be made if they do more games like this in the future (especially the damage because its bad), but, this is a hell of of an entry. Cant remember the last time i was so hooked on a racing game
Yeah damage is pretty bad, but can't really say much about it since iRacings is terrible. Would live to see wreckfest like damage but not as extreme
@@kneebon5 for sure. The crashes themselves in the game work very well actually, but the lack of damage (especially to the AI which seems to never get any) kinda makes it weird. Would like to see cars be able to be eliminated from damage atleast.
Man... Hearing Ratbag games brings back huge memories. I played the living crap out of DTR as a kid.
I played their titles as a kid too. I was shocked when I returned to play that game ~6 years ago and it still had an active community at that point. Definitely a forgotten classic.
Love it. Nick says he wants a game to play and not make content for, then does exactly what he said he was not going to do. All joking aside I am glad you did make the content. I was very curious on this game and I feel like your opinions line up with mine. This game looks like the SRX game, but with different cars. However I really enjoyed SRX so I am okay with that. Thank you for sharing your opinions and for the content. I enjoy it a lot.
Would be cool if they had like a ‘News’ tab on the main menu that actually posted World of Outlaws highlights/points etc.
North East'r here. Can confirm we play the anthem after hot laps.
At least you'll probably have a better racing experience on here with AI than you've had lately with the real peeps on iracing dirt. Lol
so far, yes
Nascar heat 5 did a good job I think personally. If they combined with Iracing. I think you could be looking at nascars best game yet...but I could be wrong.
The fact they got Johnny Gibson to do the voice over, that's really cool.
Never played a game and enjoyed it so much and saw so many things they could improve at the same time, that's what makes me excited
Yeah very good and lots of room to expand and improve
Thanks for the upload man. I was curious as to how they’d do with a console game and hopefully they can take over more of the market , looks pretty good!

Even the pins in the wing tree are right. The attention to detail in that regard is outrageous.
thankyou for doing this video.. i hope they can add some track states in there one day but other than that it looks great

I love the game so far, waiting for UMP mods and whatever other car will be coming out with the dlc
Crazy that this is on PS4. Looks great! Any idea if it's 60fps on PS4? I wouldn't think so, but it looks smooth
This is 10 times better than the tony Stewart games to be honest
I figured, I've watched videos of those games and just didn't look right.
@@kneebon5 yeah haha the were pretty bad honestly but thankfully someone came out with a good one now I quite enjoy this game
I racing is not in my budget at the moment so I'm hoping to get this game soon, thanks for the review!
Really impressed with the driver roster
Yeah really interested to see what they come up with for UMP and Big Blocks
They need to add Scott and madden and McDowell
if you plan to do the odd video on this again id probably turn game audio down a lil bit. a bit loud
Yeah, like I said first time attempting to record console not as easy to work with
I remember seeing someone review the game before it came out and the 360 guys were a lot of iracing pro drivers. I guess they need to be unlocked or something idk, but my buddy Tyler Schell is in it so that's cool
I'm jealous I couldn't get in it, haha. I guess when you burn a few too many bridges that will happen.
@@kneebon5 haha I think it's the pro sprint car racers for the most part. Like the late model race you did had Blake Matjoulis in it who's one of them
Limaland is active. You just have to go to the store and down load it, if you have the gold edition.
Thanks weird it didn't just auto install
Ok so 3rd comment but just wanna say really good video and the game really does look and seem to play amazing for being iracings first attempt at console racing. It's not perfect but damn it looks like so much fun and with the big blocks coming next month I cannot wait.

Yeah it's a great start, hopefully they do a paved racing version of this with short tracks and stuff. Lots of fun and adjustability
Looks quite good, although one thing in future if you're looking to do a bit more console racing or videos on this turn the game audio down a bit. Was a bit hard to hear when the engine's running while racing.
Yup, it doesn't record like pc so didn't have it set right
giving me road to knoxville vibes. would love to see some midgets or something too. i agree with what youre saying about having whelen etc. dirt 2 daytona kinda feel. its fantastic on my series x, blows the tony stewart games out of the water. thanks for doing this review nick i probably would not have bought it otherwise.
ive been talking to austin from armed4gaming a lot about it, just went and got it today and absolutely love it! Just waitign for the shit to download ing so i can do career. Awesome video!
It's awesome, I cheesed it up a bit to get into it further, but upu could spend months just working your way up,which is rare for games these days
@@kneebon5 oh yeah definetly I have been running the street stocks with a g29 wheel. I'm like 3 seasons in and the car is like 50% upgraded. I hate Kokomo the most. Same for iracing. I hate kokomo and fairbury but i like fairbury in the woo game. Great Game
The game feel real good with a wheel or a controller
So far loving the video but man you do ramble...gonna finish watching now
Local paved would be freakin awesome.
Lol can you imagine if a 305 race paid 6 grand to win. Weekly 410s at Huset's is only 5!
Sad thing is the total purses for these races are like 100k for local series, and like 600k for regional with the payout scale
your state must not have great locals. That’s why I love living in PA , they included the PA Posse in the game. So it’s awesome to be able to race against them 😊
The ai gets better when you move up. They will start turning down you you throw a slider.
Oh yeah I've had it in 305s the two tracks I did here weren't very good at showcasing the ai. Really happy with how they race. Much better than iracing oval ai
bellville, also arrowwood is a staple in the monster dirt racing games
33:50 used to race at Ohsweken speedway weekly
Wish they added the adjust wing feature
Glad to see they finally fixed Tony Stewart’s All American Racing. They attempted it in NASCAR Heat 5 but destroyed the physics. This game looks a lot more polished. If they just fix the throttle control it would be about complete.
is it similar to the SRX game because there both made by monster games. Idk if i want it bc if that
I downloaded a Dirt Track Racing 2 .iso back in the day. It had a virus attached to it. Still installed and played the game. Just had to deal with the virus first.
the cars actually sound good
Yeah, there isn't much to complain about quality wise
I feel like you want a really nice style of dirt to Daytona in modern day tech
This game looks absolutely amazing. I think I am gonna pick up a copy around Xmas time or so. So I know a dumb question to some but what are the perks of the gold edition?
Get all the DLC, so Limaland, I55, Lucas Oil Speedway, UMP Mods, and Big Block Mods

Got me seriously considering getting this but not sure how much is play it instead of iracing
Iracing is obviously better, but not really the same type. It's a good getaway game from ratings and rules. Just have fun and work to progress your team on this.

In my opinion (15 hours in on the game) it is a huge improvement on SRX.
I hope we see a Steam Release
I was hoping you'd do a review. Most reviews I've read have been positive, which made me suspicious.
Ha yeah, the paid promotion stuff I figured was a little to nice on them, but was very pleased with what we got
Will Big Blocks be added down the line?
Yes.
November and will come with Lucas Oil Speedway. UMP modified is October with Limaland and I55
Great. Thank you for the update info!
I’m hoping they’ll eventually put non wing sprint cars and midgets in this game
Yeah with the extreme series you would expect to see that
What do you have your difficulty on?
This was default ai settings, in my career mode I'm posting each weekend I have ai at 100
Im kinda sad my hometrack, husets, isn’t in the game
Wow this game looks great, might buy it. So I’m finally, finally moved. Probably going to get back to iracing soon because I miss it and I don’t want to wait for a Black Friday deal. I know your league is locked, if it’s even still going I haven’t watched UA-cam in 3 weeks I’ve been so busy. So when I resub I’ll just pop in to watch, should be fun.
That is if Ian doesn’t wipe my brand new house off the map in about 12 hours, haha.
Ohh bad timing, hopefully it doesn't randomly build quickly again
@@kneebon5 I’m 15 miles inland from Myrtle Beach, but this storm seems to be hell bent on blasting straight between Charleston and me, so we will see. Supposed to weaken and move through the region quickly. House came with Kevlar storm screens but no one is using them so I think it’s gonna work out.
I have a fanatec DD and the cars don't stay straight is it me or the game.
I know you have to easy on the has, but the car always starts out just in drive able
The starts are clunky, but just dial it out with aids if you are having issues on straights all the time
i have three real complaints. everything else is just nit-picky.
1. the tracks need to change during a race.
2. there needs to be a penalty for driving bad and crashing. part of what made WOO sprints car 2002 so paranoia inducing and awesome was that you never felt safe in that game. any lap you could actually do any number of things to damage your car and then you were screwed. the damage system in this game could really use improvement.
3. some of the fantasy tracks just didnt need to be in the game. yes, many of the fantasy tracks actually resemble ( and im sure are based on) real tracks but many are just unnecessary, in my opinion.
overall, though, this game is on the same shelf as WOO 2002, and that shelf is up very, very high.
Yeah the cost of racing isn't there. I wish you had to pick and choose based on distance where to go. Also hate how the different series aren't really connected in time. Saturday Night Speedway did that really well having to choose where you were we going to race.
@@kneebon5 yes. i think the easiest way would have been to literally just have a monthly calender with the events marked on it. if multiple series are at the same track on the same day then you can run multiple classes on that calendar day.
and, yes, the cost thing in career mode is just weird, to be honest. nobody is paying 250,000 dollars for a motor to put in a crate late model. and the prestige points gap needed to go from regional to national is actually insanely too large. i think the way they should have handled the travel aspect is to base it on what type of transportation you can afford. for example:
open trailer= local (≈ 5k dollars)
box trailer= regional ( ≈30k)
car hauler= ( ≈200 k)
you could then decide which is more important: traveling with a weaker car or staying local and investing all your money in your car.
I did career mode for a while and got bored with it. now i am just doing single events and having a blast.
No Lernerville?
Totally missed its not there. Probably a 2023 DLC
@@kneebon5 now that I think of it🤔, it may be because the outlaws don't come to lernerville anymore?
@@kneebon5 I also really like to see some of Lernerville's local drivers in the game. Flick, Matus, and Spithaler.
Do you play on controller or do you use a steering wheel and pedals
Controller these games never feel right to me on a wheel
Hey Nick I want to apologize for what I said couple days ago and I do agree with you he does blink a lot but he's getting a new better PC one soon
Good to hear, if it's a computer causing the issue it's hurting him more, smoother frames will help speed him up too
i only get 11 WoO drivers. would you happen to know why?
Not sure, I know there were some weird things with DLC and drivers missing from the xbox version. Has it updated since the game came out?
@@kneebon5 i just updated the game and theyre there😂 sorry hahaha
Glad I had the solution
To me this looks the same as the tony Stewart games but with better graphics. The tony Stewart games were just bad. What sucks is I bought all those one just cuz its dirt, but can't buy this one because it's not on pc
im thinking of buying it on my xbox series x but my wheel is ps4
It's been fun on controller but my brother says it's even better on a wheel.
@@kneebon5 maybe I should get it on ps4 then
MESX is frustratingly hard? lol
Maybe this will pull the MArio Kart drivers from iRacing and let the others race! These console users think iRacing is MArio Kart and show no respect toothers!
Y can’t I racing us the street stock in this game to put in iracing nick
Hopefully we get one with a decent body and normal tires for dirt instead of the thing we have now
can this be installed on PC ?
Sadly no. Hopefully they will down the road, but has not even been hinted at.
Looks fun but increase the difficulty
looks pretty arcadey, but i guess thats fine for console. i like my SIMS. Nice video.
It is, but thats the fun of it. I get enough serious racing all week long. Nice to have something to enjoy like the games I grew up with.
2:59 speak for yourself homie
ps4 or ps4 Pro?
Pro
@@kneebon5 Ok thanks
Seems to be an american thing to drive just on ovals, eh? The game looks interesting but just ovals seems pretty boring to me...good there's still Dirt Rally 2.0 with its Rally Cross events in it 👍🏻
Dirt Rally 2.0 was a massive let down compared to the original Dirt Rally. Looked worse and raced worse
@@kneebon5 Can’t agree with that at all 🤷🏻♂️
Fix wing adjust
My toxic trait is thinking you still can’t touch the walls in qualifying😂
Yeah I've just pulled over a few times and then was like oh... yeah it doesn't matter
Does this game have online?
Yes up to 25 players, but I have no idea how well it works since playstation pay walls online games.
Does anyone know if it's crossplay?
Cross Generation will be available on the Xbox.
The PS5 and PS4 versions of the game can not play against each other. However, PS5 users can have the PS4 version installed and use that to play online races with PS4 users.
No cross console
I just hope this game was on Pc, otherwise i'd definitely give this game a shot
Yeah they are really missing out on sales by not putting it on steam.
I understand why they aren't.. but I wish it was on steam.
The Tony Stewart's sprint car games are fun, and cheaper if u guys don't have 49$$ buy the Tony Stewart game. This is the same game honestly, but WOo game does it way better. And I can drive as Sammy Swindell really can't beat that lol.
Edit: after playing it for a lil while now, Wow this game may be on the same game engine but wow it plays so much better than Tony Stewart's sprint car racing. This is really an amazing game!.
You can buy this game along with a console
@@walterallen3240 yes u can
I want to know your opinion after a month, I'm just not sold yet, I think I need to play it before I buy it, I just dont know, Im scared of another disapointment. I love racing, I play Dirt to daytona,, Nr2003, and the assetto corsa games. I truly hope it is good, Iracing is ok, but people are mean!!! I can keep my car straight but Im slow as molasses, people dont want to give tips, so B lisence in a month irating high at 1600, racing community is kinda like a rotten tomato and I just want a good AI racing game at this point
sorry I ranted
This has great AI that you can tune. I've had some really great races with AI. You can pretty much set this game tp whatever you want, which is how it should be.
@@kneebon5 When I get it, we will see, I trust you more than most, if I am disappointed I will never get a console game again, 5 years later I do 😂, Isn't kinda sad that a 19 year old plays a game that's as old has him though...
@@k9burnouts544 console games have been so disappointing for so long. Really hope the new NCAA football game is like this, brings back the the good old days feelings.
@@kneebon5 F1 games have been janked, it's like no one can make a racing game, gran Turismo is trash too, but it is what it is, maybe video games are done for
@@k9burnouts544 yeah GT was fun back in the day everyone pushing for online and ways to get more money out of you. I'm hopeful iracing can get the nascar side of things on console one day.
keep doing the career please
Both of these guys are doing careers, go watch them - ua-cam.com/users/Griffin2448 / ua-cam.com/users/Armed4Gaming
