As cursed and scuffed as it can be and as its nature is. It is genuinely a fun game to just sit back and drive, restoring cars, getting yourself killed, blowing up your car, hitting a speedbump at 220kph, and stepping on landmines. Best part is, when you play it with friends, you are unlikely to progress as when someone says something stupid they will get shot with an RPG and innevitably the car will fly 98km into the sky never to be seen again.
Only problems as of Review:
- Optimisation/Performance (I have played better looking maxxed out games on >60fps, while maxxed out in this im on 30fps, I gotta play on medium to enjoy the sweet frame rate, I'm pretty sure this is being worked on though.)
- Physics Inconsistancy (Sometimes you hit a speedbump, and you phase through it, sometimes, its the tiniest bump in the world and you do 38 somersaults. Grip is a little odd regarding handbrake and transitioning between states. This is also among other inconsistancies.)
Other than that, I have some personal preference gripes, offroading to radio towers and just going off the road should be far more hazardous given the rocks and pebbles everywhere, should give punctures and destroy the suspension, you should be able to have more mags in AKs, but alas this game is still in pretty EA so I can understand.
At the end of the day, despite the little bumps and oddities, this game is exceptionally satisfying, finding a part you needed, finding a gold bar, accidentally drifting, just having a good time driving. I have high hopes for this games future, and the improvement I've seen in the last few big updates have been absolutely amazing progress.
