    Im loving this bike game its consistently improving over time, the issue i have with it at the moment is over aggressive a.i that just smash you of your bike, but im sure that will be addressed with a patch, its basically forza on wheels definitely worth a look if you like motorcycle's. 8/10

    Milestone games has once again proved that they are the best in the business when it comes to motorcycle racing games. You can see improvements in every aspect of the game when compared to Ride 3. A must play for anyone who really enjoys motorcycle racing games and there’s nothing like it in the market.

    One thing that makes RIDE 4 great is that the game fixed a lot of problems. However, while beginners will have trouble, this game is the best game in the series.

    There are many things this latest installation in Milestone's Ride series of would-be-Forza-with-bikes get right: as one would rightly expect, Ride 4 feels way more polished than its predecessors.

It's not just all glitz with next-gen graphics, entirely remodeled bikes, rider models and tracks, and an all-new approach to UI design that will make Tourist Trophy nostalgics feel right at home; powering this romp in the world of motorcycle is a new physics engine (developed in collaboration with Yamaha and Bridgestone, or so Milestone claims) that does a solid job of simulating any bike's weight and inertia.

    There are, however, some noteworthy negatives: the career mode structure, which is somewhat similar to that of older Gran Turismo titles, feels a bit dated, and together with a harsh game economy it may discourage less experienced players that are only interested in having some casual fun with their favorite bike model, and while drastically improved from Ride 3's, the AI is still a bit lacking at times. The track limits are exceedingly harsh: that's no big issue on racing events, but on Time Trials crossing over means instantaneous disqualification.
    Finally, playing in "Quality" mode on Xbox One X there's the occasional framerate drop; perhaps, that's to be expected from a game coming at the end of the current console generation (and designed with the next one in mind).

    Overall it's an enjoyable game for the motorbike fanatic and the causal gamer alike; however, be prepared to spend a sizable amount of time just trying to get that tenth of a second faster. Whether that sounds like a recipe for fun or frustration is up to you.    … Expand

    It is not only the best motorcycle game, the graphics on the pc have reached such a realism that it seems to be really on the track. I can buy all the bikes that have made motorcycling history and use them on all tracks.

    It's the perfect motor race game. The graphics are amazing, the phisics are real, and so many content. I love it.

    I'm loving this game. I had Ride 1, 3 and now 4 and it's enjoyable. There are definitely some annoying bugs but I'm sure they'll be ironed out (I hope). But first the positives . The game looks brilliant and the bikes handle really well, the physics is great and the addition of the clutch is a lot of fun when doing wheelies. I like career mode and the amount of tracks are pretty good asI'm loving this game. I had Ride 1, 3 and now 4 and it's enjoyable. There are definitely some annoying bugs but I'm sure they'll be ironed out (I hope). But first the positives . The game looks brilliant and the bikes handle really well, the physics is great and the addition of the clutch is a lot of fun when doing wheelies. I like career mode and the amount of tracks are pretty good as well. The bike livery editor, helmet editor and racing suit editor are all amazing. Before you know it you can spend hours designing all your own gear and bikes. Also the photo mode is just amazing! I can play this game for hours. But now onto the negatives. The Auto pilot on time attacks is buggy. It's either too long so you watch the rider take 4 corners and sometimes the rider will even crash. The AI don't seem to care if you're in their way sometimes - they will just steam roll you out of the way and everyone will crash which is really annoying. The racing lines on a lot of tracks are just useless. Hopefully these bugs get sorted out asap. Overall I'm really happy.… Expand

    Great motorcycles game: ideal for riders and enthusiasts and very enjoyable for players looking for realism. Overall difficult to master but very satisfying, like the real thing.

    POSITIVES - fotorealistic graphics, realistic bike handling physics and track transformation through the race (you can see the racing line being rubberized during the race!), great number of tracks and    Great motorcycles game: ideal for riders and enthusiasts and very enjoyable for players looking for realism. Overall difficult to master but very satisfying, like the real thing.

    POSITIVES - fotorealistic graphics, realistic bike handling physics and track transformation through the race (you can see the racing line being rubberized during the race!), great number of tracks and events/trophies, challenging dynamic weather and day/night transitions, frequent updates and a list of free and purchasable DLCs expanding bike number, largely customizable bikes/suits/ helmets with editor mode, plenty of settings for A.I difficulty/realism/riding aids for a tailored experience, bike set-up and upgrades do translate accurately to handling qualities on track, A.I. makes mistakes too with adversaries subject to falling and crashing.

    NEGATIVES - A.I. does consider your presence and reacts to your moves, but rarely makes overtaking attempts and does so without leaving the racing line. Also AT LOWER DIFFICULTY SETTINGS, they just don't fully accelerate on straights and let you by too easily.
    Partly limited range of bike types - we all love sport-bikes but 4/5 models of Yamaha R-1 (2008, 2012, 2019, 2020) are more than enough. A few chopper bikes and sport-touring (Harleys, MV Agusta Turismo Veloce, Ducati Multistrada...) racing on the available street-circuits would be an interesting and different addition to gameplay!    … Expand

    الجزء الرابع قفزة كبيرة وفرق ملحوظ جدا عن الجزء السابق من اللعبة. اللعبة أبدعت في الكثير من المجالات وبالأخص التنوع في الدراجات والتصوير الدقيق في الكثير من التفاصيل لاسيما تفاصيل الدراجات نفسها. بالبداية خلوني أكون صريح معاكم اللعبة مو سهلة نهائيا وتتطلب أن اللاعب يتحكم بصبر وتوقيت صحيح سواء بزيادة السرعة أو تخفيفها ولعل إن أغلب اللاعبين ممكن ما يعجبهم هذا الشي ولكن اللعبة تعطيك تصورالجزء الرابع قفزة كبيرة وفرق ملحوظ جدا عن الجزء السابق من اللعبة. اللعبة أبدعت في الكثير من المجالات وبالأخص التنوع في الدراجات والتصوير الدقيق في الكثير من التفاصيل لاسيما تفاصيل الدراجات نفسها. بالبداية خلوني أكون صريح معاكم اللعبة مو سهلة نهائيا وتتطلب أن اللاعب يتحكم بصبر وتوقيت صحيح سواء بزيادة السرعة أو تخفيفها ولعل إن أغلب اللاعبين ممكن ما يعجبهم هذا الشي ولكن اللعبة تعطيك تصور حقيقي للتحكم بالدراجات. من ناحية أخرى اللعبة تسمحلك إنك تعدل في طريقة التحكم وإعدادات الدراجات بكل النواحي اللي ممكن تتصورها. تحتوي اللعبة على ما يقارب 30 مسار/مضمار مصممين بتفاصيل دقيقة بالإضافة إلى أكثر من 100 دراجة مختلفة ممكن تطورها وتحسنها بأكثر من مجال. اللعبة تتقارن بكثير من النواحي بلعبة غران تورزمو ولكن الفرق الأساسي فيها إنها مصممة للدراجات. فكرة اللعبة بكل اختصار إنك تتحدى الدوري الإقليمي إلى ما توصل للدوري العالمي ومن بعدها للدوري النهائي وأرد وأذكرلكم اللعبة مو سهلة وراح تكون بمثابة تحدي للاعب في الوصول للنهاية. اللعبة تحتوي على مهمات مختلفة منها سباقات، تحدي أوقات وأحداث تحمل. اللعبة تحتوي على طور الاونلاين ولكنه بسيط وما فيه الكثير من الاعبين فلا تتوقع أن راح يكون في منافسات قوية فيه. على الرغم إني أفضل سباق السيارات على الدراجات إلا إني أقدر أقول إن اللعبة نجحت بشكل قوي في مجالها وأعطت اللاعب التجربة الحقيقية لسباق الدراجات. بالنهاية أشوف إن هذي اللعبة هي أفضل لعبة حاليا موجودة للمهوسين بالدراجات.

    من الآخر:

    1- اللعبة أبدعت في مجال سباق الدراجات وتعطي اللاعب تجربة فريدة وشبه واقعية للاعب في هذا المجال.
    2- اللعبة مو سهلة وتتطلب صبر وخبره في التحكم وتوقيت صحيح في الإسراع أو التخفيف حتى في حال تخفيف صعوبة السباقات.
    3- الاعب عنده القدرة على تغيير الكثير من الإعدادات اللي تخص الدراجة أو السباق نفسه وفي تنوع كبير في هذا المجال بالإضافة إلى شراء دراجات مختلفة وتطويرها.
    4- أفضل لعبة حاليا موجودة للمهوسين بالدراجات.    … Expand

    RIDE 4 isn't the best entry in the series, but it fixes a lot of its past problems. The on-track action is amazing, and no matter what track you’re on or what time of day or conditions you’re racing in, you’re in for a fun time. It’s a challenging game, but in a good way, as it encourages you to get better and offers a wide variety of difficulty options to help you along the way.

    Ride 4 offers a tonne of content for those who itching for a deep dive into an expansive career mode. Race all across the world by winning licenses to open up access into better and more advanced events. Gain affinity with various bikes and manufacturers on the way to becoming the greatest rider. However, a weak online mode, a lack of other real features outside of the career mode and having a steep learning curve for beginners prevents Ride 4 from being the complete package. With plenty of bikes on offer, and upgrades on both the 'stock' and 'racing' side of things to allow for vast improvements over the troublesome AI, this is one of the better digital biking experiences out there.

    The bottom line is simple: while TT Isle Of Man: Ride On The Edge demonstrates how hardcore, unforgiving motorbike sims can be amazing on PS4, Ride 4 is simply dull. Authentic and capable, certainly, but dull nonetheless. [Issue#182, p.136]
