    I own a fast car in real life. My desire to own a fast car stemmed from playing games such as the original racing arcade games and the first Gran Turismo. I must have played Gran Turismo for hundreds upon hundreds of hours. I had no idea what torque was, I just knew oh HP = Good.

My desire to own a fast car stemmed from playing games such as the original racing arcade games and the first Gran Turismo. I must have played Gran Turismo for hundreds upon hundreds of hours. I had no idea what torque was, I just knew oh HP = Good. The crew actually takes my child level intelligence and dumbs that down to the point where your car just has levels. Its beautiful really, that you can condense every variable of a car into one simple number. It really allows for a high level of customization. I also really love driving on ice, so the crew is perfect for me, no game has ever quite satisfied my desire to attach ice skates to a car until now. The crew had ought to be renamed to ice skating cars, and then the car level could refer to your cars overall scores for figure skating. There was also a plot and cut scenes added for you to skip every time you skate out of the rink into a dead end. Its also really cool how when you go into first person mode so you can drive your car like you would normally, ALL OF THE MIRRORS ARE JUST BLACK, as we all know black is the color of carbon fiber, so that carbon fiber glass is probably adding about 40WHP in total. Luckily in the crew you will spend about half of your time facing backwards anyhow so you can still see everything. The game, although being mechanically perfect in every way, has a FEW bugs. Just a few, I swear. The crew however stays true to its superior racing game roots and carries on the tradition of physics not actually existing and trees being the ultimate life form. We also all know that what an object looks like has no real relation to the amount of space an object takes up. I hate it when I'm driving to work and I think I'm clear to go around the side of a building but to my surprise its actually 6 feet farther out than visible. Good thing, just like in the crew, my car regrows my intercooler and engine on my way to work. Its also awesome that I got this game for free buying my new graphics cards to do 4k, and it looks just as good as Gran Turismo 2. The crew also has such a good selection of cars, American Muscle cars are really the only ones that matter, lets face it. No one likes that ricer crap. I would have paid $450 +$75 per DLC like ubisoft wanted, but unfortunately I had already gotten the game for free. I would recommend this game to anyone who has ever wanted a game that allows them use their car to ice skate.… Expand

    The main impression keywords: ugliness, wretchedness, lack of talent.
    The WORLD: impressive with scale, but in game it used not more for 2%.

Colour gamma cruelly dirty, offend eyes and cause depression, especially in    The main impression keywords: ugliness, wretchedness, lack of talent.

    PICTURE: there are some good things, like white skyscraper in Miami, starry night in mountain desert and LA view, but generally this is an image of past millenium type. Colour gamma cruelly dirty, offend eyes and cause depression, especially in nord-east including mid-west (game beginning). Trees bristle themselves, taunt eye - just like in TDU2, somewhat metal brush. Unnatural feeling of all. The main - asphalt: it covered with whitish spew with stains. Simply impossible, force you to sick.
    DRIVING: eatable, but not moreover. Oversteer and overforce - Watch Dogs model. Became worse then in beta.
    STORY and character: stupid, banal, brute. We must see again stamped FBI agents, and deal with geeks, see their disgusting mugs and hear their disgusting voices. A propose, all voices made very poor, stupidly, unnatural, in Russian version as in English. Story, from the one side, too primitive, for minor schoollboys, but, from the other hand, too brute for them. Fail.
    GAMEPLAY. As mentioned, world used very bad. No long races or test drives (taxi, delivery). Annoying stunt challenges. Cheatting AI (as usual), strange feature of you won race with great advantage and recieved bronze medal. Again idiotic feature of "dynamic" difficulty: if you made good advantage, traffic and all the world begin war against you. The same with restarts: very difficult to improve once obtained result. So, I shall not fight for records with somebody.
    The most idiotic feature: NO MULTIPLAYER IN THIS GAME. No enough usual words for it. You forced to play with "friends" in career regime.But no friends you can find at this immense space. Not friends needed for multiplayer, but RIVALS, which we can meet in somewhat stated area, ideally - in lobby. Without lobby its practically impossible to organize game. as we just saw in NFS MW and especially NFS Rivals. I absolutly cannot realize, what about developers thought and for what fight, for what they killed their game in the same way, although result of such experiment was just well known: online project without multiplayer is somewhat simply ridiculous.
    So, generally, we see total fail of ambitions. Total disappointment. And it was predetermined by fact that these, looks like, TDU2 creators are people not only untalented, but also blind and deaf: they havent even try to correct manifest deformities and ) incongruities players mentioned during beta test.    … Expand

    Conduite horrible :/

    Tout le reste peut être génial, mais un jeu de voiture avec une conduite horrible n'est pas un bon jeu.

    Dommage parce que la map est sympa.

    Ständige Abstürze, besonders schön wenn man über eine Stunde ein „Rennen“ fährt und der Erfolg nicht gespeichert wird. Abstürze häufen sich wenn man sich in einer Crew befindet.

    Die KI ist ein Witz, man kann 10 min einfach stehen bleiben und gewinnt immer noch, im Gegenzug wenn man gut fährt kleben sie an einem. Wenn man als Crew Fraktionsrennen fährt wirkt sich das katastrophal auf den Spielspaß aus. Da es immer nur einer schafft sich an der Spitze zu halten und die anderen werden ständig von der KI von der Stecke „geschossen“. KI beschleunigt mit Performance Ausstattung auf Schotter, Gras usw. zerstörbare Umgebung beeinträchtigt sie überhaupt nicht. Wenn man mal Mist baut wartet die KI sogar in manchen Fällen oder fährt in einer Kurve gerad aus.
    Polizeiautos halten sich noch nicht einmal an physikalische Gesetze.
    Die Liste ist unendlich….

    NPC Verkehr ist viel zu spät sichtbar. Autos entstehen direkt vor einem.

    Bei den Tuningteilen ist es schon auffällig das man zu etwa 90% entweder Grip- oder Bremsbonus bekommt (mit weiteren Spielern abgeglichen), soll wohl die Spielzeit verlängern.

    Mehr negatives möchte ich nicht mehr aufzählen.

    PvP Events
    Allgemein ist zu sagen, wenn sich einmal eine Lobby öffnet, die Rennen relativ stabil laufen. Wenn man von einigen Rucklern und hin und her springenden gegnerischen Spielern absieht.
    Bei Fraktion gegen Fraktion hat es bei mir bis jetzt immer über eine Stunde gedauert bis sich eine Lobby öffnete. Im Frei für alle Modus sieht es etwas besser aus da wartete ich „nur“ 10 bis 20 Minuten.

    Positiv ist das es sehr viel Spaß macht mit Freunden durch die Gegend zu cruisen.

    The Crew ist meiner Meinung nach zu früh auf den Markt geworfen worden und hat bestenfalls zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt den Status einer Beta.    … Expand

    This game is really so bad, there is no physics at all, handling is equal for all cars.
    Also bad bad support, the game working with g27 wheel without force feedback.

    Before buying, please note that "we can't restart the career from the beginning once again" because Ubi holds our saves on the cloud. If you want to do so, you have to buy a new game again! lol
    I've never heard such a stupid developer/publisher who won't care the replay value at all.
    I really regret I bought this game.

    Started off boring, difficult AF to control the vehicle they give you (poor handling). Pushed myself to play a bit further.

    Things took a turn for the worst a few "tasks" into the story when they introduced an "American" law enforcement officer by the name of "Clara WASHINGTON" (!!), who opens her mouth and belches out a thick British accent... I knew at this point this story is going to be cheesy AF to compliment the difficult AF and tedious AF, so I quit and uninstalled the game.

    Another ubisoft title marketed for hype. Servers don't work properly, as usual with Ubisoft services...Also, there's a poor selection of cars in the game just a couple of stupid supercars. It's just an NFS with crappier driving physics and bigger map.

    This game claims to be something new and innovative (god i hate that word) but it's no different than TDU2. TDU2, not TDU1 which had an option to enable believable physics.

    A vehicle game with unbelievably silly unrealistic physics is not a vehicle game at all and has no value.

    Cities does not look iconic at all, and most environments look generic.
    Landmarks are unremarkable for most of the time.
    Slow progression.
    Awful story, which does not really revolve around having a close crew, or cars themselves. It is a stupid revenge story with terrible dialogue.
    Sloppy gameplay and handling.The drifting in particular, is difficult.
    Frustrating AI
    Ridiculous physics
    Everything is connected by Uplay
    Online functions are shallow. It does not feel important at all.
    One you make a mistake in a race, there is no fixing. You are going to play the same race again and again and again till eternity
    Cutscenes that you can't skip at the beginning of some races
    Cars do not feel that different
    Glitchy wildlife and pedestrians
    Pointless radio towers. This works in AC and FC but not in a racing game.
    Loading times can be long sometimes

    Conclusion:
    I don't know how Reflections manage to mess this up, since they have decades of experience making games, but most core aspects of the game: graphics, gameplay, story, handling, online functions are below average. You will have fun, if you like doing road trip in a video game, because driving around is still fun, and very relaxing, but if you want to complete missions, or simply wanted to race, this is definitely not your choice.    … Expand

I played it for 4 hours today on my PC and I am just about to delete it from my hard drive. This game made me angry.

    First of all, the physics are complete garbage, making it feel like you are driving a hovercraft that goes over land, water, or road, through trees, fences and street lamps without any difference or damage whatsoever. Second, the cars do the same horrible shuffle from all the Grid games where they oversteer uncontrollably as soon as you hit the brakes. Finally, as you are trying to cope with this, the AI cars drive into your lane without rhyme or reason while you are trying to do the missions. Get hit once and all the AI cars zoom ahead of you, leaving you to restart the mission.

    The graphics on a GTX 980 with all settings on max are decent enough, but the sound is utter garbage. I had to turn up my speakers far too loud to hear the engine so I could judge my RPM for gear changes, and the exterior car engines, tire squeals, and the radio (thankfully you can turn the music off in settings) still drowned it out.

    I played on both a Logitech Momo wheel and an Xbox 360 controller, the wheel made no difference in helping to control the car whatsoever. Baffling.

    I would not recommend this game for anyone. I was really looking forward to trying a social racing game that would let me put my skills up against other "real" drivers, but this is just far too annoying.    … Expand

    Rating The Crew is problematic, because you can look at this game from two perspectives. In view of some simplifications and scripted moments it will not delight those in search of pure racing. Those who appreciate large open worlds however will be overjoyed. [01/2015, p.70]

    This ambitious attempt to create an MMO racing game pretty much failed thanks to horrible bugs and poor gameplay balance. And if you prefer playing alone, The Crew is not good enough for that, either.
