    The Crew is a completely passing game. It's a mediocre racing video game. A typical game from Ubisoft is a huge empty open world with nothing to do.

I'm not even sure where she's worse at The Crew or Need for Speed. Also, with optimization, the game has obvious problems, I understand that the game was released only at the beginning of the PS4 life path, but such long downloads are not forgivable. Also graphically, the game is disappointing, smoothing and shadows in the game seem to be absent. A passing game that is not worth wasting time on… Expand

    The map design is a great idea, however a racing game will suck if the driving physics are terrible. In addition, the ai cars are either blind and hit anything in front of them and crash countlessly, or they are absolute pros that drive 50 miles faster than your car can possibly go.

    What can I even say? The game is just one of those games where you just lose focus. The games physics are awful. It's like driving on the moon. The game lacks a personality as well. The story is very forgetful, I don't even know what's happening most of the time with the story. The game lacks cars as well as most of them are generic same 'seen already in a dozen games' I would avoid this racer.

    This game is a mess. The races are boring and repetitive, the online is useless, the graphics are fine. Everytime I tried to play I had to close the game and open again because the server was SUPER laged. The map is huge but extremely boring .

    Graphics look great. The physics are impossible. The game has impossible challenges and a weird sense of humor. You also have to get 1st place in every event in order to advance, which takes a lot of the joy out of the game. You can't just race and enjoy it, you have to win every time.

    Very disappointing game. The graphics have improved after some updates, but the environments are still boring. Driving is unbelievably frustrating, you pretty much crash into stuff, turn the wheel, crash into stuff on the opposite side. It's arcady like Need For Speed, but without the fun. Also, it contains monster trucks which is awesome, except they're nothing like monstertrucks. YouVery disappointing game.

    If you are looking for a fun racing game. This is NOT for you. Some of the beginning races are all but impossible to do solo. The AI rubber banding is worse than any other driving game I have played. A simple google search for select missions in this game and it isn’t hard to see why the scores are so low. Very disappointed in this game and as a result I will not be purchasing The Crew 2.

You can also be in races with other people but they don’t have to be your friend, you can get special cars and motorbikes but you will have to pay for them with real money. You can add weapons to your cars like an EMP to stop the police from arresting you, the cars and motorbikes can have boost on them which will make the car or motorbike go faster for a small amount of time. I think the best car in the game is the Lamborghini Huracan, I think the best place to drive my cars is the motorways because I can go as fast as I want without having to stop or slow down because of traffic.… Expand

I don't mind seeing other players in the world and racing them, but when they can just randomly invade your world and disrupt your experience it is just frustrating. This game lacks composer and identity that combined with the lackluster watered down driving and other mentioned issues make this game worse than any other racer on the market. If you want a game with a fun massive open world play Fuel. If you want a racing game with great driving, good cars with good sound play Forza. This feels like those two combined and INCREDIBLY watered down.… Expand

    The loading times takes ages, you always have to be online and the music is irritating. Got the game for Christmas 2015, the whole servers crashed. Played it for 2 hours trying to do the bloody mission, left it alone, then played another 3 today because I saw a road trip video and I was inspired.

    - big map
    negative points :
    - a very bad driving simulator, no precision on controls
    - not a MMO
    - and after wild run DLC, the original game become a advertising game, full of "buy wild run" every time !

    How is that people continue buying Ubisoft games?. The Crew has a terrible story (not that you buy a racing game for its plot), outdated graphics (almost PS2 quality) and a plethora of glitches that will keep you raging for hours.

    Please vote with your wallet and stop supporting Ubisoft.

    This game gets boring pretty much right when you start the game. This game is completely boring and looks slightly better than a PS3 game on the PS4.

    This game was marketed with amazing car customization and from the marketing they you could choose the spec for your car (dirt, raid, circuit, street, performance) and it seemed like you could pretty much have an off-road Lamborghini but in actuality a lot of the cars that you would want to have a certain spec don't.
    The storyline in this game is absolutely bland and horrible with nothing interesting about it.
    Ok so a racing game is all about the racing so the driving has to be good right? Well this games isn't, the cars feel off and it doesn't feel good to drive the cars in game.

    Overall this game sucks you might want to buy it if you see it for about $5, spend any more than that on this boring piece of crap and you're insane.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The fact that the driving is vague and could be overlooked. The boring start up mods and bad facial art could be ignored. Unfortunately the absurdly long install AFTER you've completed the useful pro log that is so poorly written it makes Drstiny's storyline stand talk. And heaven forbid should your system end up going idle, this insanely long install stops. If you pause the app, or close it, the download stops. So, if you can accept this sort of stupidity, set aside 8 hrs to stair at the car that didn't want to spend your entire start up budget on to begin with. I'm NOT waiting for the rest of the install.

    you cant change the controls, not enough details what to do, you keep on driving for nothing. All the cars have same handling and very loose, too much of the movie very very time wasting. Ubisoft has failed its attempt to copy NFS RUN. There are only a few challenges which keep on repeating. Waste of money.

    Too many random, uncontrollable events (obstacles/crashes/loss of control/rubber bands) makes progress very slow, difficult, repetitive and frustrating. Graphics are ordinary but gameplay and especially control are worse. Progression and achievement pretty much a spin of the roulette wheel. Tedious, frustrating, not much fun.

    The Crew can be enjoyable for some casual cross-country joy rides, especially if you have some friends to drive along. However, it comes up entirely short of most of its goals, and makes a wreck of car handling and competition for the sake of lackluster MMO mechanics.
