    So played first crew, spent 100+ hours in that game. It was amazing and fun and exciting, graphics were alright, cars felt like cars. Now this comes out and lets compare to the first part:
    - Graphics: same if not worse.

    - Map : smaller than the original, replaying same races over and over again? Really?!

    All in all it doesn't feel like a work on mistakes from the first game ( cuz lets face it: not perfect) instead we got some horrible feeling arcade race/flight/boat thing. I tell you this, try it and then try NFS Most Wanted for example, or even better underground 2. We can all agree neither of theese games are sims, both arcade, but I can bet you will have same or even better experience with old NFS than this. And lets not compare it to any other arcade racing game that is NOT released yet.

    VERY grindy game. Probably the most grindy game I can remember playing of late. You have to grind to buy cars, then you have to grind to level the cars up. Getting the first car for a discipline leveled up to the maximum takes something like twenty hours. Then, to grind out the "set" that you want takes another 20-40+.

I cannot even guess how long it might take to get a desirable set where all the item affixes are desirable, but I haven't met anyone that has managed such a feat. It's ridiculous.

    The netcode is DRAMATICALLY better than the previous game and among the best I remember seeing in an online game, but the playing experience is largely solitary. There are a dozen or so races across a dozen or so disciplines, but good luck finding people you enjoy playing with. There aren't, presently, any facilities for matchmaking or even global chat channels or anything.

    On the up-side, the game is gorgeous. The number of licensed automobiles is very large, including a pretty fantastic selection of popular motorcycles. If the idea of zooming around on a decked out H2 or S1000RR or even a Street Glide sounds appealing, The Crew 2 is the best option I have found short of doing it in real life.

    This game is pure madness. It's so addictive. I used to play the open beta and it was "nah, alright" back then, but now, man. I really recommend getting this one. It's as arcade as it could be, but that's the very point, to be absurd, mad and extremely fun! 9/10 cause they could have made the controls better, but other than that (after a while spent in controller options menu) I love it so much!

    I bought this game in 2022 without reading any reviews which was my mistake. Ubisoft and Ivory Tower are a joke, probably the worst arcade racer i have ever played.

    I really enjoyed the first Crew. It wasn't perfect but I enjoyed it a lot.

    Some of the issues were the driving felt a little flimsy there wasn't much weight to it and the cars felt like they were floating. Then you had the end game which was just an RNG grind. BUT overall it managed to be a fun arcade racer. Albeit a bit of a short lived one. The Crew 2 had a few things to do

    BUT overall it managed to be a fun arcade racer. Albeit a bit of a short lived one.

    The Crew 2 had a few things to do for me to improve on the first one. The biggest one was make better use of the map. More races. More events. More stuff to do in this monster of a map.

    Second was they had to tune the driving to give it a better feel and just generally take the first game that extra step forward.

    They didn't do that. The driving in this game is even worse than the first one. You could literally be pod racing in outer space as far as the physics in this game are concerned. Absolutely terrible.

    Then they decided to make it some surreal joke with stupid jumps in the city and ridiculous courses. Why? What was wrong with just driving? You have an entire frigging map worth of roads why do we need to jump over buildings instead?

    The "story" is gone. I wasn't a massive fan of the story in the first game but I give them props for trying. It at least gave some context to the map and gave you something to follow.

    In this you are some moron who drives because he wants followers for social media. It's utterly pathetic. We went from a pretty gritty (though a bit shallow) story about a guy getting revenge for his brother's death to a loser who only wants to gain the approval of strangers on the internet.

    The flying is kind of crap. It uses the same controls as GTA which is fine. It is still pretty fun to just mess around. But the races and missions using flying are just sad. Fly through green circles with your plane at the correct orientation for points. Or do a set of pre-defined tricks for points.

    Honestly I had more fun in planes messing around. One time I spent about 20 minutes trying to fly my plane through a mountain car tunnel. It was really fun. Actually got some satisfaction when I managed to squeeze through while actually touching my wings on the walls on either side.

    And then we have the absolute nightmare in this game that is LOOT. When you finish a race you get loot. They actually call it loot as well. You get a little orb on the floor with a huge coloured beam coming out of it that you need to collect.

    I mean is this really the mentality of the gaming industry right now? That the average gamer needs the reward centre of their brain triggering after every race? It's utterly pathetic.

Why did they take away things that made the original Crew great? When I first bought The Crew (the 1st version), I got it on sale and wasn't expecting much...but I was blown away at how great it was. I couldn't wait for the second version...all they had to do was improve on what the original was...maybe expand the US, or take it to Europe, and update the visuals? But what they did instead was TAKE AWAY parts of the great racing game, reduce the quality of some visuals, and then add this window-dressing that no-one was asking for (boats, aircraft, and hovercraft). I admit I don't mind the aircraft (because I was a pilot for 15 years), but I absolutely HATE the boats and hovercraft. So, the solution is simple right - just don't play the boat parts???? NO! The game FORCES you to play them (and upgrade them) in order to advance. There is even one Boss (The Duke) that talks about how boats/hovercraft/aircraft take away from pure-racing...BUT THEN HE USES A STUPID BOAT IN HIS BOSS-RACE!!!!!!!!
    Also - why do I have to go through the same stupid sequence of being slowed down, and then drive to the start point of every race? It might be OK if the person talking actually said something important (like explained to you how to drag race - instead of you having to figure it out/google search) - but they usually just spout off uninteresting-dribble that I guess is supposed to be "story line."
    And what is this "Live Extreme Series" crap?!?!? They used to have monthly events (in The Crew) where you could compete against others for prizes, but they also had a free-roam aspect in these events where you could upgrade your vehicles faster because the parts where better than normal free-roam. Now in this Live Extreme Series, you just race 3 different classes of vehicles (and a boat or hovercraft is always one of them), and only the top 2000 players in the world get something. I don't even think you get upgrades at the end - but if you do they are unremarkable.
    I got this game on sale for half-price on black Friday, and if I could get a refund I would. This game is pure frustration with some good racing mixed in.

    Worse than the first Crew, released 4 years prior. Severe lack of things to do, you have to repeat the same things once and again. And on top of that, I did my rewards program while it was still advertised on uplay, didn't receive any, and they tell me the cut off day was the 26th, the pre-release, while they still had the advertising running in uplay of the rewards!

    Lesson learned.

    -Sound is very mediocre. The backing tracks to most of the game are frankly annoying as hell and warrant instant turning off in the settings.

    Overall the game is actually quite fun, though the race mechanics feel quite dull, you can't really do "tricks" in any of the vehicles except maybe the plane, the game has everything you would expect from a car game, you press one stick to go, the other to brake and one button for turbo. Something mario kart did better nearly a decade ago.

    Really, i don't understand Ubisofts directions with games in recent year, they seem to be constantly churning out mediocre half finished and boring crap then selling you the other half of the game for 33.99 in a "season pass"

    I would say this is a "good" game but not at the current price points. This is a huge cash grab from Ubi to reap back profits on a pretty mediocre product.

    The game advertises the multiple methods of transit, but boats are mildly entertaining at best and the plane races are something I wouldn’t do if I were paid. The car racing is pretty good, except the horrendous rubber banding, which means no matter how well you race, one crash could cost you the entire race.
    The economy means you can barely afford new cars, and makes no sense, with worse cars being only marginally cheaper than better ones.
    The 2 points are for the cars which are modelled pretty well

    This is the worst racing game I've ever played. After 30 minutes it's easy to see how linear everything is about the game mechanics.

    Upgrading cars is basically non existent, just an arbitrary rating number that goes up with pre determined upgrades you receive after completing races. With that said, the street races are overly difficult, even on the normal setting. Basically to win a race you need to be going at max speed while making absolutely zero mistakes - that's because the AI is always going max speed and making zero mistakes. It doesn't matter how good of a car you have or how high the rating is, this is a game where a ford focus will beat a ferarri f40 no problem.

    There's no sense of achievement or rewards in this game, sure there's a big catalogue of cars, but they cost a fortune - and to unlock different race modes you need to buy a car. So tell me how is it fun to make $15k a race and spend $300k on a car (that will only be used on a very specific race, say drag racing) and then having to do that grind all over again.

    Honestly, this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of how awful this experience was. End of the day, save your hard earned cash and spend it on a racing franchise that knows what they're doing (like a Forza or Gran Turismo).

    -AI is OP. They basically don't crash unless you hit them. They can pass the curves at 180km/h while you crash at 100.
    -You have to replay same races all the time because there isn't a storyline and online is dead.
    -Boats and planes aren't that enjoyable. You may be impressed by trailer but trust me, they aren't enjoyable.

So it's simple to do whatever you want & the matches are mostly too easy, but this does not only have advantages: It's like a carnival without deeper sense and plausible background, just to put on a show for artificial followers. Doing this the fun factor doesn't come up through the locomotion physics either: above all roadcontact is missing never mind finetuning for driving, water does not affect boats and wind does not exist for airplanes. Obviously lacks a plenty of experience with racingcompetitions in every kind of these. Also the sounds do not create a special atmosphere, besides there's only a glorified USA-area. Does the future of videogames look like this? That soulless game is the Jack of all trades as master of none, whose advertising promises more than it is! In fact for everything only 24GB of storage is required instead of the announced 55.

    So, this game is very similar to Forza Horizon 3, both in terms of gameplay and the look and feel of menus etc. Is this a good thing? With Forza Horizon 3 being my favorite arcade racer of all time, yes, very much so. So compared to Forza, here are the pros and cons.

    Pros:

    * The world is much bigger here, meaning more stuff to do and I found this game having more unique races than Forza Horizon 3.
    * Next to cars, you also have bikes, boats and planes to offer greater variety.
    * All the menus are really clean and slick just like in Forza.

    Cons:

    * The cars look great but environmental graphics looks worse than Forza.
    * Physics are a bit too much Mario Kart style and I definitely prefer the Forza physics.
    * The AI is cheating with rubberbanding and it's super obvious.
    * Getting new vehicles takes forever since you get so little money from each race.

    In summary, if you liked Forza Horizon 3, you will enjoy this as well. However I can see Forza Horizon 4 being more high quality than The Crew 2, but this will be a good racer to play until it's October release.

    Story has been removed entirely. I'm actually not really against this seeing as, 99% of the time, story and racing games don't mix. But it also gives you a lack of purpose.

    New additions like planes and boats are fun for a couple hours and the vehicle-swapping feature is awesome.

    If you're a fan of racing games or want a casual exploration game to play with friends, this is your game.

    An excellent arcade game with all types of vehicles, it's an open world with all kind of races, challenges and more. The map is huge even more than those from horizon. I think it's a must have, there is a lot of fun in there to discover and you won't realize about how much time you have been playing. To me the game is real good, fun and addictive !

    Puedes ajustar el juego hacia arcade (que es más su planteamiento) o a la simulación (permite uso de volantes también)

    Si vienes del The Crew 1, que tenía una historia tipo 'fast & furius' (por así decirlo) puede que el 2 resulte raro, porque "solo" va de convertirte en una estrella del mundo del motor y choca un poco después de haber jugado al 1 que va de 'policias y ladrones' con el FBI y todo, pero está bien.

    El único punto negativo que le encuentro es que en pc está bloqueado a 60fps como máximo, pero al margen de eso está muy bien.


    recomendado.

    Tienes juego hasta aburrirte incluso tras completar la historia (de convertirte en el n1).

They made the interface way more complicated and it stopped being fun to play it using wheel cause it's hard to fly with a wheel. Also, the camera is pathetic I spent 10 minutes getting angry about it rotating all the time and I spent 20 trying to find a solution to it but I couldn't find an option to change it.
    I do not recommend this game although I hope there will be The Crew 3 that will fix the chaos they made in this game.

    I adore The Crew, but The Crew 2 just doesn't feel special.

    Always online is still present on a game that is essentially a single player game more than anything else, so loading times are dependant on whether or not you can connect to the servers...which isn't very reliable.

    But the core problems are much deeper than that.
    It feels liks there's absolutely nothing to do early game. Sure, things unlock as you progress, but there's NOTHING motivating you to drive the open (and immense) world in freedrive.
    The Crew 1 was a great drive from coast to coast with a ton of challenges etc along the way. The Crew 2 barely makes it worth your time to drive anywhere and the entire large map is wasted because of this reason.

    Let's not forget that The Crew 2 also FORCES you to fast travel to simply pick up rewards....once again, not letting you use the big open world. It feels like the entire large map is a showpiece more than anything else and there's just no fun in small things like driving from Chicargo to Salt Lake to quickly go do a race, or going from Miami to LA to go buy a special car.
    There's also no "do you want to fast travel" popup, so if you select something in your catalogue menu it will immediately pull you out of free drive and drop you elsewhere... making playing this with a friend even worse because you have constantly jump around.

    Other problems are the design decisions. The interface, general events, menus, customisation and ease of use have all worsened.
    In the map view left trigger moves up, right trigger moves you down....but in photo view right trigger moves you up, left trigger moves you down. It's like they had complately different teams working on different parts of the game.

    At the start of a race there's this stupid countdown screen that I suppose is meant to be "cinematic", but it's just pure 100% irritation because only about three seconds after the race has already begun can you see your rev counter...quite a damn irritation if you're playing manual transmission. Since you'll be overrevving, not being able to hear your car over the announcer and not being able to see your rev counter as you watch the AI skid out from under you as you try to find your shifts.

    The menus are abysmal. There's not even an exit button anywhere to be found and I had to visit forums just to be able to figure out how to exit the damn game.
    Customisation for the most part seems similar but it's bland and ininspired compared to the deeply interesting way it was done in The Crew 1. In general it feels like everything from The Crew 1 was taken and dumbed down to the point that it makes the game not feel like a AAA titile.

    Next is the absolutely laughable "story". All it is, is you're a driver who is collecting followers....yea, pathetically shallow and idiotically childish. If I'd known this game was intended for ten year olds I would've picked up something else instead. What a joke.

    Although I bought this on sale it still feels a bit like I was ripped off. It's not that it's a bad game...because it isn't. There is fun to be had...more so if you never played The Crew 1. But it just could have been SO much better if they didn't have 12 year olds running the ideas for this game.
    It's just FULL of stupid decisions that contradict things that worked so well in The Crew 1.
    But thanks Ubi. I always supported you guys, you've taught me a lesson.

The driving is very arcady, but not in a good way. There is practically unlimited grip until there suddenly isn't. There is no feeling at all with this handling model. The game also feels like one big grind as you're constantly doing races to get upgrades and new cars, but this is going way too slow. The fact that upgrades drop from lootboxes at the end of races prevents you from really personalizing your car. It's just constantly equiping parts with a higer performance score instead of having to look for the best parts to buy in forza horizon 4 for example.

    Although most of the game is just really bad the idea of having a map of the USA which you can race on with boats, planes and cars is great and original concept with which so much more could've been done.

    visual customisation it is alot and i think you would like it but it is mainly only on street family but my one nitpick is that they should say what brand it is like Liberty Walk or Bn sports
    cons:
    Motopass and other p2w factors
    no contracts
    a bit boring once you finish the game
    the dialog especially once you finish the game. I will finish one street race and Tio be saying u hAvNt bEaTeN mE yEt like **** off i already beat you at ace and i see the same FOR EVERY CHARICTER.
    The last one id say is the upgrading system vissually it is amazing but perf it is not its just cards or loot thats it no ecu upgrade block upgraide brakes no it is only cards

    id say wait for a sale before buying

    Jak można nie lubić tej gry? Nie doceniacie pięknej grafiki, fabuły oraz wielkości mapy. Pytam się czemu ta gra tek nisko jest oceniana? Kocham tą grę! Jest to moja druga ulubiona ścigałka! 8/10 z powodów licznych bugów oraz niedopracowania wysokich budynków.
    ps.nigdy nie lećcie na najwyższy wieżowiec jaki znajdziecie.

    I played the first Crew and remember that I was stuck on that game, I'm not a big car guy but I appreciate a game with a good story and a fun driving element, even when the story was over I kept playing the game because of how purely fun it was to drive. I was excited to buy crew 2, expecting it to be even better than the first but was horribly let down.

I was excited to buy crew 2, expecting it to be even better than the first but was horribly let down. In the crew one, you play as an ex-criminal, recruited by the police to go undercover and destroy the illegal racing industry from the inside. Maybe doesn't sound like the most fun story but it blew me away. When I then bought the crew 2 on its release date I was met with a horribly plain "story" that pretty much consisted of endless grinding for followers on some social media that is never explained. Not only did it completely abandon the already good storyline, which by the way had the potential for a follow-up, with the storyline of some fame-hungry douche. The driving mechanic was the same as the last one, the graphics even got a little bit worse in my eyes. The addition of boats, planes other sorts of vehicles felt like a sloppy unwanted excuse for an "upgrade". The game was so optimised for a console that a mouse was practically useless and often irritating to use due to the constant centering of the view.
    Even in the settings you see elements of "console optimization" where you can only set the fps limiter to two options, 30 and 60, you cant turn it off, neither can you set it higher. It was almost like Ubisoft was trying to punish PC players by putting the keys for different actions all over the different corners of the keyboard. I also found it unproportionally hard at some missions, I may be just bad at drifting but gathering 20 000 points for a "normal" difficulty felt almost impossible. After what felt like an eternity (actually a couple of hours) I stopped playing thinking it was just full of bugs and was gonna get fixed soon. Fast forward 3 years, I see it in my library and get excited to play it, I download it, start it, and quickly realize that nothing has changed. Still the same let down that I bought 3 years ago.
    I used to be a dedicated assassins creed and Ubisoft fan, but this is just depressing.

    TLDR
    + Fun driving (same as last game)
    + 5 GB smaller than TC 1

    - Let down of a story
    - Addition of other types of vehicles was poorly executed
    - little bit worse graphics (at least that I saw)
    - A LOT of grinding
    - Worthless optimization for PC
    - Never get to know a character
    - Unproportionally hard for some mission (may be just me that sucks at drifting)
    - UI is horrible
    - UX is even worse

    Passed the plot. In the game, I didn't like the physics, character animation, and non-optimized graphics.
    I liked the game because of the storyline (and, oddly enough, I liked the storyline of street racing), a large number of cars and interesting pumping due to the details.

    2021 REVIEW - I played the free 4 hour demo then bought the full game. There is TONS to do. The map is huge and going through places like the Grand Canyon or Yosemite is breath taking. Not to mention it is one of the extremely few games that has good motorcycle gameplay. The cars are great and the boats and planes are fun to mess around with. Flying over cityscapes are especially fun.

    This game is quite underwhelming because Ubisoft's open world games are usually great. But The Crew 2 seems like a game that's created by some unknown small company. The Crew 2 do features a lot of vehicles, but the graphics and other details aren't that good.

It has a timing system of night and day. It also has weather cycles, with watered-down roads being harder to drive. For the casual racer, it allows for comfortable difficulty-level choices. The storyline is good, and the characters you can choose from are likable.

    The game is done solely through the use of the SWAD keys. There is no use of the right hand, as it only uses one hand and tends to call for the non-dominate hand, which is very hard for most of us right-hand dominant people. Also, in FPS, both coordination of the right and left hands are used simultaneously, which adds to the benefits of hand-eye coordination. I tried to play multiple racing with online participants, waited close to 5:00 minutes in a waiting lobby, and called it quits. It seems not many people play the multiplayer version of this game.

    It's a good game, but not worth its original price. I managed to buy it when The Crew 2 had a good discount on Steam, it was for R$25 (approximately US$5 at the time of writing this review), beautiful graphics, not the best, beautiful sound, I love to spend several minutes enjoying the roar of the engines , especially the old cars, a good amount of missions...

But then the problems start, the amount of missions in each category is unbalanced, the multiplayer is difficult to access (nobody likes to go to the HQ just to start a multiplayer, there should be an easy option in the menu for that), selecting missions on the map is something that gets tiring too, there should be a style and list of races to select and go straight to it on the map (after all, not everyone likes to travel for several minutes )... In the end it's a game I still play a lot, I spend a lot of time just walking around enjoying random races or walking around the country Expand

    I am saying this as a person who played this game for 200 hours (I think I wasted my time)I think The Crew 2 is not a good game, graphics gameplay both are losing. For example NFS for people that looking for adventures with cars and it is definitely a more succesful game series. Forza is for people who want to enjoy their cars and drive, in this part The Crew 2 losing too, I have to admitI am saying this as a person who played this game for 200 hours (I think I wasted my time)I think The Crew 2 is not a good game, graphics gameplay both are losing.

Forza is for people who want to enjoy their cars and drive, in this part The Crew 2 losing too, I have to admit boats and aircrafts are a good feature but this does not make Crew 2 a racing game. And graphics are a think a bit miserable, they don't have much cars and it has not some must be in game cars. But, I think if Ubisoft is trying to be succesful at racing games category, The Crew 2 is not the game to be succesful. After every time I download, I do not enjoy the game more than a hour. What Ubisoft should do to be succesful is making a new game, but not in The Crew 2 atmosphere, I think. Lastly, I really need to add this, making a new few cars (generally this does not happen because Ubsoft makes weird versions of current cars which I really hate) and making a few new contents does not make people interested in this game.

    Even at this moment its sill **** like all others Ubi-games since 2014.Also they so greed about motorpass, i cant buy it with my deluxe version of game. As free motorpass im stuck at 71k and i need at least 80k to get normal version....BUT i cant buy it next time cuz in this pass still not enough money to complete next. Like COD is more generous.

    This game is the most unrealistic thing I've ever played since I sold my ps1. I think that super mario bros physics are more bearable than watching a car do a 360 just by pressing A or D in mid-air. I never felt so disgusted about playing a game from 2015 or above. If I ever have an archenemy or some sort of thing, I'll call it "the crew".

    I didn't like the game, Ubisoft always makes mistakes when controlling cars, it's very difficult to drive.
    The game has amazing graphics and the fact of exploring the United States is very good and surprising, but the gameplay is not one of the best, Let's see if The Crew Motorfest will be good.

    Open world is sadly underutilized: there’s no need to explore it to find new races, and unlike original The Crew, mini-activities like slalom are few and far between. [Issue#232, p.54]

    Diverse arcade racer with an impressively huge game world, but the enormous potential isn't used enough.

    A great driving game, a poor racing game. Has some technical issues involving controller support and their idea of multiplayer is somewhat unusual for this genre. A game I would happily spend more time with, but can’t recommend highly in its current state.
