Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
The Crew 2 announced; more details soon
- Thread starter Turkoop
- Start date
Division will be updated with two big DLCs this year
Fuck yes. This news has made me so happy. I was hoping for an E3 announcement anyway.
Take a Fullstock Bentley set to Sine Radio on a 100 plus mile Freedrive Challenge across one of the best open-world maps ever created.
I've played this game loads and still, depending on conditions, it reveals something new. I can't think of an open-world as expansive and as characterful as The Crew's. Sure, it technically lacking but it still shows incredible beauty because the whole map seems to have been created with love. Most of the roads are brilliantly crafted and set. To me The Crew is a 21st century OutRun. Fork to the left or right and be somewhere entirely different. It's seriously impressive, magical at times and really, really soothing.
One of the games of this generation for me...and that's just the driving about.
My god...YES!!!

So glad I passed on Crew 1 but that it sold well enough to warrant a sequel. This is absolutely on my radar. Let's see that game play and physics

I do wonder how they'll expand the world, it was huge yet a lot of areas comically small at the same time.

I really wanted to love the first one, a racing game with a huge world and tons of content and upgrades sounded so good, but the car handling has kept me away every time I've tried to get into it.
Give this sequel much better, arcade-y driving feel and it could be one of my favorite racers (make drifting more like Burnout or something and not the heavy, slow feel like it had in Crew 1).
Also needs to look way better, Crew 1 even after it got a graphical update was one if the worst looking racing games released this generation.

so we get little amount of racers last year and then they just fucking stack it all in a single one
brilliant!
They gave it away for free during Ubi 30
theres no reason why anyone should've 'passed' on The Crew

I'm in day one, no questions asked. My most played game this generation was The Crew!

Yeah, I think I have it on XB1 games with gold and on PC through that Ubi 30 deal.

Why is that surprising?
Crew was released in December of 2014
The Division in March of 2016
The games were over a year apart.

Nice! Looking forward to it, love the original. My only complaint was Calling All Units was such a limb expansion. They boosted the level cap but didn't add enough interesting content to make me want to hit it. I will eventually though, but grinding these chases isn't exactly that much fun.

Calling All Units was complete garbage.

This really bums me out. Its really not fair.

Yes, Driveclub was a gem too. But there are so many more racing games to look forward to this year that satisfy a similar itch!
The game was broken for months, not surprised.

But none that will ever look as beautiful as Driveclub, it was the best looking game this generation.
I know, and it was frustrating. It was text book of how not to launch a game, but man its still unrivaled when it comes to looks.

I can't wait to see the next leg of Alex Taylor's journey.
Oh boy. Lots of potential here.
Remember that The Crew was a cross-gen game. A sequel built using Ubisoft's current open-world techniques is gonna be visually astounding.
Hopefully they figure out how to make a good first impression this time around. Improving the default handling and fixing the tutorial would be a good start.

Was? It still is. It looks insanely good in photo mode. Like nothing even comes close to it, not even the best PR Gran Turismo shots. Evolution set the bar on graphical fidelity on a frickin launch game which hasn't been passed 3-4 years later. Pretty impressive when you think about it.
30fps makes it look kinda bad when you're driving fast though, compared to games going for higher framerates I mean, it's both blurry and stuttery which isn't exactly ideal from my point of view.
Where has the devs gone after the close down? A multiplat racer from those guys with a PC version able of hitting 60+fps on triple screens with the right hardware would be sooooo awesome!!

I would've also taken 2 Crew 4 U
They remade the handling model and it was good after that
Man, nooo... Don't!!
