I stopped playing after few plays because it was evident that there was rubberbanding AI, and they turned up the AI cheating to 11. I had to spend a decent amount of effort just getting through the first track, and that's BS. I think several other people here have noticed the game is a lot more frustrating than the original was.
To be honest, this is a combination of Beedox ass job and those 'news fans' who they keep listening I don't know why.
Look, even the recent update litellary destroy the remake. You can now change the attribute of your char, so Pura can be an advance or Crash can be turn. I really can't believe why they keep listening some fans how actually never played the game. They think the game need to be similar to Mario Kart, but the true is Crash Team Racing make their fame by being in their way.
Those new fans think every fuck kart racing need to be similar to Mario Kart. I already think a future update will change how type of cars work.
I can't regonize the game anymore to be honest. Itens spam, Blue turbo spam, AI keep using missile, invisible wall. I completely regretted buying this game.
