the crew Discussion thread for The Crew Beta players

[Eudemon]

I noticed that in the more recent emails that the wording said "the first of our" in regards to the PC Beta so maybe there will be more to come.

 

Would be epic to see this in the game too. :D

[BeSweeet]

I don't remember hearing that one in The Crew, which is probably because it seemed like it was repeating the same 3 songs over and over again...

 

Also, the voice in that video sounds different from what was in TDU1 :/.

[Eudemon]

That version is in the X360 version for sure.

[BeSweeet]

That version is in the X360 version for sure.

 

This has the correct vocals:

No big deal, but the voice in the first vid scared me for a sec.

[The Compensator]

OMG, now it's stuck in my head again. :sing:

[Jorgemodek]

Servers seem down :(

 

Is something going on ?

 

EDIT :

 

:susp: is that it ?

[T1M]

The beta has ended hasn't it?

[Andreas¹]

It ended 5 hours ago. (At least that's when they published so on their Facebook)

 

LOL, who cares if the main protagonist is white or black or Asian or duck? :fp:

 

Ooh, always wanted to play a game with a duck as my character

the wheel shake effect while going straight is annoying indeed (I believe it's only visual), didn't know what to expect when I read ryzza's feedback

[RRacer]

The TDU loop feels quite short, as i know all radio hot and radio star something songs by head.

The theCrew loop feels equally short, i hope for the release there's a bigger song selection as there was only one song i really liked,

(By the arctic monkeys, keep forgetting the title) and the most annoying and skip inducing song being by Lorde...

[Paladin Skylark]

The memories... dat song tho.

[X8X8X]

I enjoyed classic radio the most of the in-game radio stations.

But then I went for Spotify and "Queen Rock Montreal"...

[Audrey8]

That's strange, the radio app was down for me the whole time I was playing :/

[Ryzza5]

Mine started as on, I turned if off on day one, then noticed later on another day that it was disabled from being turned on (probably a pre-release licensing thing).

 

 

Didn't pay a lot of attention to the radio but it seemed pretty good and I didn't notice any repeats in 1 hour.

[superhyper]

I turned the radio to the ambient soundtrack channel after the first day and I was happy with it, seemed to work all the way to the end :hmmm:

[X8X8X]

Radio only worked in the mid-west for me. I guess radio stations change in each part of the map.

My opinion on this game:

Do you agree?

Agree, because I have a Laptop too

I'm just hoping for an improved optimization, nothing more :nods:

[Bozickovic]

Are graphics that bad?

I have expected more... :/

Or no one can run it at 1080p on max details.

[DanMcRea]

I wouldn't call it bad. Actually the views are quite amazing. Although when you take a closer look at the asphalt textures, well they seem a bit blurry. But other than that the game looks really good. The game worked pretty good, at least outside towns, they still need to work on that. The game just used the same amount of cpu and GPU pretty much everywhere when clearly it needed some more in the cities

Runs maxed out @ 30FPS (in-game cap) for me. Things do look a little dated, but they don't look that bad IMO. The anti-aliasing is very annoying however.

[Nikki]

I think Anti-Aliasing looks bad because of that "movie grain" that is always on and cannot be turned off.

[Bozickovic]

Yeah... I can smell the TDU2 gens from the beta....

They rly need to impress people with something that is "next gen" or it will be another "ball sucker" just like TDU2.

[hassan1995]

The crew will never be as bad as tdu2 regardless of what they do now.

[BeSweeet]

The crew will never be as bad as tdu2 regardless of what they do now.

 

Just a quick show of hands... How many people in this thread actually enjoy TDU2? *proudly raises hand*

 

And wow @ the dang forum fly...

[Nikki]

I enjoy TDU2 but mostly just for cruising around. I love big scaled maps to drive around. The Crew will be even better with that, plus from what I ve seen you arent forced to drive a Bugatti for endgame probably.

 

Thats one big disadvantage I hate in most of the racing games theese days. Theres only 1 or 2 superiour cars, all others just dont cut it in end-game.

 

From what I saw in The Crew, the Full Stock cars perform somewhat equal in general. Of course a everyday car couldnt probably compete with a RUF or Ferrari on Full-Stock, but I feel that with all this parts you can win / buy, we will see a mixed competition on the higher levels maybe.

 

And I would appreciate that, because everyone has their favourite car and wants to build it up to the best performance, and for sure its not a Bugatti or a similar weird looking supercar.

 

I keep my fingers crossed for that kind of freedom. It was done in past games, why couldnt it work again. Just take a look at NFS: UG or even MW & Carbon. You could tune any car to compete in the higher ranks even against supercars.
