Project Torque [MMORPG]

[scaleopdriver]

Free online racing/drifting/cruising game, looks very good. installing right now. Heard alot of positive comments about this game, thought i would tip you guys about it :) And the 900MB install file lies, theres's BIG updates when you launch the game. Featuring real life cars of course. :)

I had that game, it's crap.

 

It takes forever to get enough points to buy anything in the game, unless you buy them, with money. That means the game isn't free. You only get the real cars if you pay for them too.

 

It also messed with my force feedback wheel. If I passed the finish line and my wheel wasn't dead centre, it would continue forcing in that direction until I quit the game.

 

Overall, don't bother.

ah, too bad :( I'm about to play it, I'll come with a verdict aswell.

Well, they've probably updated it since I had it. But you will for sure have to pay for the real cars. It really does take ridiculously long to get any decent cars / parts with just the free points in the game too.

I downloaded it a few weeks ago and play it sometimes. It's better than it looks, but yes takes a lot of time to get into like most MMO games.

 

As it's free it's worth a go for anyone that likes driving games.

I played it for about two or three weeks, with MisterMojo and TehReaper on some occasions.

 

I got bored of it after that. I wanted an Impreza or Evo but I had to pay real world money for those.

I've been playing PT since open beta. It used to be a great game but it changed a lot and not in the best way imo.

I spend more times to find a proper room than anything. I finally ended doing time attack and drifting in Sim mode in Practice mode. As i've been playing for a long time, i got a bunch of cars with enough upgrades to have fun. But for a new player you need to spend your whole life to advance after a bit of playing.

Special darwin award for the drift mode, which is an epic failure.

 

It's a game that had a great potential, but poorly developed with stupid ideas.

Used to play it, but like Matt said, it's crap. It takes too long to get points, and even when you do get points, you can only get fake cars, the real cars you have to pay for. The only remotely cool thing about the game is the driver turning the steering wheel properly :p. Might go back to Nitto 1320 soon, not sure...

this game is the biggest pile of W*** ever

[DriftNismo]

A thread has already been made before about it made. It's not bad, I played it for a bit, but it just takes too long to get other cars, their servers keep going down in the middle of races, and the real cars you have to pay for. I still go on it sometimes if I'm really bored just to test drift the Corvette and RX7, but I don't like it really as an MMORPG.

 

Nice review though mate, I can see you really took time to write it, +rep.

is this game download only? or does it have an install disc for sale?
