Hi guys - this review is for the PAID version that was available prior to launch. I might sound like i dislike the free to play model quite a bit...uhhmmm but I’ve tried to give a fair an accurate representation here. Let me know what you think of this one and check out GRID which is definitely a full featured racer without any extra...coins. GRid Review is here - ruclips.net/video/gsN_udHM-YI/видео.html . Thanks for watching as always we read EVERY comment. Patreons I’ll be announcing the winner by FRIDAY at the latest! Mark
SwitchUp great review as always.
fun to play but it's sad that i can't use my account from mobile, i don't want to start over. but maybe it's missing because of that stupid hackers
Too bad grid isnt an arcade racer...
I can't find the SwitchUp Club ingame. Do i miss something? ^^
Nice objective review, keep up the good work!
I really dislike ingame purchases with real money in general and especially in console games. If this would cost 10 € and asked me to unlock the vehicles by playing the game a reasonable amount of time, I would be sold. Basically like all older racers before the internet conquered consoles. But this model just screams 'we prey on the weak to be too impatient not to spend real money' which is shady as shit. Having to refuel? Oh boy...
Do we need Nintendo online?
I was really hoping they’d remove the fuel system for the Switch version, that’s a real turnoff for a console game. I’ll give this game a try eventually seeing how it’s a free game but I’m not in a rush.
It actually doesn't cost much tokens to skip that process seeing as you can easily get tokens from race challenges I was shocked about that part I thought you'd have to pay like 100 tokens just to refill it. 😂
@@TwisteeTheDefiant1 bot
I assume they didnt get rid of ads, otherwise buying car packs and tokens is the only monetization, you will cringe when monthly events show up once the platform playerbase isnt full of noobs.
635574 Suprisingly, they had the human decency to remove ads.
its only like 7 tokens to refill fuel
Couldn't agree more with this review! They should have a paid version without all that F2P crap
Exactly that! Mark
No Its still a good game
Gameloft did that with the Switch port for Modern Combat 5, not sure why they took a different approach for Asphalt
@@anthonyvitello no its not
Free > Paid
“It’s like the old burnout games” I’m sold
That's a cheap sale right there! £0 hehe. Mark
yeah. Still stupid af that EA didn't release Burnout Paradise on the Switch
@@sX-Rain I bought Paradise on PS3, PS4, 360 & One X... But hell YEAH I'd buy it again for Switch!
Same! And I DISPISE F2P games. This is going to hurt me morally but I have to download it. It's Burnout!
Its burnout and cruising usa if it had a baby with a bit of most wanted thrown in
this is a good game to play inbetween more solid long titles like the witcher 3 or dark souls
And zelda botw
I gotta say this is really fun to play. I love how there single player modes in it along with the multiplayer. Grinding for cash and the premium currency can be somewhat of a problem but despite that I still feel this game is good. Also the graphics are in my opinion the best on the switch
I wouldn't really call it a paid version. It seems more like one of the standard introductory packs offered at the start of an F2P to get you invested in the microtransactions just bolted to the front of the game. I don't like pay to skip mechanics in general because they are the "solution" to a grinding problem that was deliberately engineered into the game in the first place. I'm tired of F2P store-fronts with incidental gameplay attached after being stung in the past for hundreds of pounds and will be sticking with real games from now on.
Its called paid be cause you paid for it, not because there greedy.
@@funnyguy6934 At this point Gameloft is greedy,and if you don’t think so then you’re completely wrong and you should shut up.
This is exactly what I thought of this game. I would most definitely pay for a deluxe or premium edition of this game without all of the nonsense constantly trying to get into your pockets, because once you get racing it does have that Burnout vibe. Great review
Great review as always. I totally agree that Gameloft SHOULD strip all F2P aspects, especially that fuel/timer element. Hate them to the bone.
P2w take this from an experienced player of IOS some cars take 6 hours to refill and have just 3 fuels
I'm so glad this came out because it performs like shit on my smart devices and I love the gameplay. This runs and looks so much better on the Switch than anything I can run it on other than my pc. So glad I can finally enjoy this game. However I was hoping they would ditch the lootboxes for a price tag. ☹️
what keeps me hooked in this game is bc it looks like youll get the next car soon and even if itll take loads of time the races are amazing
I recall deleting Asphalt from my mobile/tablet because of all the free to play stuff you mentioned. The racing itself is good but all the junk outside of that is a huge turn off. I just want to choose a car, choose a track and have a race.
That’s the same problem I have with Asphalt, I played a LOT of Asphalt 8 in the past and although I love the gameplay, not even after playing daily for almost 2 years I was able to get an A class car, and in this games is even harder to get cars thanks to the blueprints and the fuel system . The game is excellent and the graphics are beautiful but the free to play stuff makes it an unbearable game! If Gameloft rereleased this game at 60 dollars but removing all this awful free to play stuff, it would be an ideal game but you know, business be business.
Android version veteran here, and the scene here is mad skilled, who knew a freemium game has so much depth in its driving mechanics you know what the pro players are doing.
Seriously, go look up some of those best runs right here and YT, this game is something special, dare I say potentially legendary, if it weren't for its freemium and eventually *brutal* pay-to-play future
The progression system is quite intense!
Thanks for all the details!
Burnout was super fun, but the pay to play model has me Burned out.
Great review Mark!
It's like Burnout...
Downloading 😂
Great review Mark!
Cheers mate it's just a shame about all the silly in app stuff. Mark
@@SwitchUpYt absolutely, all I could think during the review is exactly what you said... Launch the game at 30 quid, no loot boxes, bargain!
The UI when NOT in a race is SO incredibly busy. Too much to see at once.
And i'm not buying anything...microtransactions are a no-go for me.
not really worth paying anyway, you can get your time with the game without spending
The cars are way to "floaty" in my opinion.
But I was never a big fan of hardcore Arcady stuff.
I really dislike the freemium bullshit. The game will end up costing you probably quite a lot to get to the good stuff. Again, I was never into f2p games like these on phones or so.
I stick with Grid.
Totally agree
basti329 I downloaded it a day early so that I would race a few tracks on weeknights in between more serious games or as a way to unlock stuff after coming home from work, but honestly, I’ve had enough of freemium-based games myself. As far as iOS games are concerned, I removed all of the free/freemium ones as the paid games feel and play better. That said, I DL’ed Asphalt 9 as also an experiment - if this game works out I may clear some room for Warframe...maybe.
For you grid is probably better but for people who can't afford buying a game every week this is a good game
I honestly did not know asphalt 9 was out. The amazing thing was, this video also came out with the official switch trailer!
I would take this one! Thanks for the update!
Cheers mate! Mark
Love the arcadey pick up and play gameplay, hate the monetization. Hoping Microsoft bring Forza horizon over one day, or possibly EA will wake up and release the old Burnout games.
Forza would be class on switch
I was on the download page until I heard about having to refuel the cars... I cant stand those stupid ass energy bars in mobile games, and it really sucks they brought it over to the switch. If they have an option to do a one time purchase for unlimited energy i'd would consider downloading. But thats is just annoying.
You could have 2 cars you can use one while u refill the gas on the other car that’s what I do
It’s so much fun, and the currency that you can buy you earn just by playing the game, even if it’s not much it’s way better than a ton of other games offer.
so fun yeah
but asphalt 9 currency system is crap you need to spend ton of money to get new cars and exclusive stuff
just check mobile version on RUclips
They hand out alot in the early stages of the game, it slows down alot the further in you get
A timer system deincentivises you from playing the game. It locks you out and forces you to look elsewhere. In related news I've just discovered F Zero GX for the first time on GameCube which is all kinds of awesome and I'm actually rewarded for playing the game!
Very cool indeed! Mark
Great review Mark.. Navigating this one must have been tough. (And my thoughts are well documented on this business model)
Basically i feel like this... if gameloft had made a full price £49.99 Asphalt 9 with everything in one price, i think they would have probably the best racer on switch.
But they haven't. And it actually makes me want to purchase GRID just to support full priced racers so they make more.
EDIT:
I been writing this whilst listening to your narration...and you just echoed what i said above about a full version. We are on the same wave length and that means your review for me is fair...
Nice one as always, you got balls of steel reviewing this one pal....
Hahaha yeah man you saw what I did to Modern Combat right!? Hahaha I think there are still bits of that game around the house. Totally agree! Mark
Yep, with you on this. I actually want to play this as the gameplay looks incredibly fun, but the freemium model is abhorrent and I refuse to support it.
Totally agree!
@@SwitchUpYt i actually felt sorry for your modern combat...that was just abuse 😂😂😂
@@jglover8 yes mate, it does look good...makes it even tougher to ignore, i love arcade racers, but yep..will not purchase or even do free. GRID, here i come baby , just GRID DEVS if you read ? Ever? ...ONLINE LEADERBOARDS ! and you have the winner
As it seems as the best till this day racer, I can't recommend that game to any of the costumers I am going to talking about racing games on switch. No parent will want to download a game where the whole screen screams "buy me, buy me, buy me". What a shame. Thanks for the great review, thought that could this game could be a good one, but that f2p mechanics killed it for my recommendation!
Yeah it's a definite avoid for kids
This is one of the few reviewers that I actually get real information from. Thank you for doing these.
There is some awesome free to play games like Warframe and Paladins, but the grind doesn’t take away from those games. Long term feedback would make my decision on this as I never seen it on mobile. But I never looked for it either.
Cory ^^^^^
Nice review! I wish there was offline on all platforms
im in love with this game
with thoose flashy gamble things i just wait for the free one every time i just ignore the rest i just have alot of free games
cheers!
I downloaded it in September so I could play as soon as it went live
I prefer to grind in game that's how we did it back in the day.. Its a challenge.
@red swine and what's wrong with making a game long by playing its... Isn't that the point of a game TO PLAY IT.
Grinding isn't a challenge,it just takes a long time
@@ironpro7217 you grind in RPGs tell me to defeat emerald weapon in FF7 without being at the highest level possible by GRINDING. I'd rather pay for the full game to begin with and not have shitty microtransactions charging me money that amounts hundreds of pounds in the long term. GIMME a old school rpg where you grind for experiences and weapons any day... That accomplishment...
@@SuperFam12345 yes you need to grind in most rpgs, that doesn't make grinding hard. It can be fun, but if its actually challenging its not grinding
@@SuperFam12345 in these games the grinding is made tedious on purpose so that you may want to pay to skip it! It's not the same as in paid games, where the progression is done to be fun
I would've GLADLY paid for full ver. w/o the F2P crap, i.e., fuel system, blueprint, premium cars, rubberbanding, etc. Older Asphalt games were pay it once and enjoy full content. I love the gameplay, I love the soundtrack, but the F2P element kills it for me.
So if theres no blueprint, how else would you get cars apart from buying them?
@@larpu6205 saving up one main currency instead of gambling to get the right amount of blueprint to unlock one car.
@@reaperjack9007 you dont always gamble for one specific car. Some are available in Career, like the Ferrari LaFerrari. Yes I do know some cars are only available through packs
@@larpu6205 You'd buy them but with a Credits payout rate that is actually reasonable.
I would pay for this but I cannot be arsed grinding it out. Prolly try it out for free tho 😉
I spy that neon red and neon blue joycon themed car at 4:50 haha! Very cool. Thanks for the review! I'm excited to check this one out.
You could only get the paint job if you pre-purchased the game
@@randomperson3629 really huh?
@@thewinner4319 yep there was a preorder trailer showing it
I honestly thought that Apple could have killed Nintendo years ago if they focused on gaming, especially after the Wii-u shambles.
This reminds me of why I had my fill of mobile gaming and got back into console (Switch) gaming
These offerings are a cancer on the industry, I avoid paid DLC, 'games as a service', season pass and all the rest of that garbage
What happened to the times of stumping up for the cash for a day one ready title including all the stuff that was developed for it at the time, which was obviously be a key part of the experience?
To quote the great Mark Steel "...world gone mad..."
Keep on keeping on!
Love as always - dan
@@camthesaxman3387 I've played an inordinate number of hours of this game- tried to 50% the career mode in 50 days, which i did, now currently stuck at 85%.
It's a good game , i play it every day and I'm glad you enjoy it too
So Burnout Takedown meets Need for Speed Birth Asphalt9.. interesting🤔🤔.. awesome review Mark like always
Pretty much that yeah! Then throw a slot machine in for good measure! Mark
SwitchUp it’s free to play also.. I’ll give it test drive 💨💨
SwitchUp so I test drove this game.. not bad at all to be a free to play game..
Here watching you guys while repairing a friends pc, this is life XD
Good stuff mate! Gaming rig? Mark
I agree with your review. I probably would have bought Asphalt 9 but I hate paying extra for DLCs. Just give me the game bundle. I know I'm weird but I rather pay than get something for free, that way it's complete and mine.
Completely forgot this was out today had it on my switch predowloaded haha. Just got yooka n impossible lair and golf story today too that makes 264 different switch games for me 😁😎
I won't spend a penny in this game not a huge racing fan but don't have anything like it either on my switch so it is perfect for me bc I would only play it as a pop in n pop out style.
Enjoyed what I've played of it so far. If I only end up playing it for an hour and not going back it's not cost me anything(except that hour of course ) but I cant see me sticking any serious time into it.
I'm playing the free to play, and it is a GRIND! Old skool. Really like it. Had a couple of game freezes tho...had to power down the switch. Great video as ever guys x
I bought the switch to avoid smartphone style games and this is what we get.
Ignore this crappy game. We have Grid Autosport.
@@fedvvvv Agreed. Asphalt would be nice if we could pay full price and all that crap would be taken out but oh well. My worry is that this type of games will keep coming.
I've tried to be as unbiased as possible but I TOTALLY agree. Mark
Oh i hear you brother...i hear you.
@@fedvvvv Grid autosport is also on mobile :/
Awesome review. This game is a lot of fun but having micro transactions kills it for me. I will play it from time to time but I think Grid has won out for my racer of choice on the switch.
Looks good, I gonna have to give it a try. Also planning to get Pokemon Sword despite the controversial those games are getting.
Gameplay tips from a mobile veteran: all nitro above yellow ignores the slowdown of dirt or grass, nitro level affects also turn radius and it hugely affects air speed. Pressing brake in the air can save you from dying by half turn roll, but sometimes doing nothing is better. Also killing car from the rear makes you a lot slower, avoid where possible. Useless drift will lose a lot of speed so only use for big turns to shockwave out
Got to admit I don’t mind the ftp stuff in this. I’ve been doing what you suggest in vid, playing till fuel runs out then putting it down. Really enjoying.
Yeah it's cracking online as well
2:45 there is one game in the world I would like remastered and it’s Burnout 3 Takedown, back in the days I used to play it on my Xbox😔
Can we appreciate the amazing soundtrack in this game. I think it's the first time i ever leave the menu music on
I think anyone interested should get it and use it as something nice and casual to play in between other games. Flick onto it, do a few races to pass a little time and then onto the next thing. Treat it like that and you'll get a plentiful experience out of it for free. Just consider what you are getting for free when you really think about the game and visuals. So don't be so upbeat about them trying to get their money off you.
As a fully f2p player of this game I can provide some small insight. I haven't run into too much grinding, you can progress throughout at least the first chapter of the campaign without pretty much any grinding. Both types of currency are relatively easy to earn too. Your progress does slow down as your cars get higher upgrade levels but besides that it's great. Fully agree with the 16/20 rating
So...Burnout with Ridge Racer 6's nitro system??? And it's a game made in Bacelona, my hometown? Buying it!!
The only thing I dont like about this game is how little is available in offline mode, but the fact they included it at all is amazing.
Also they actually make the free to play part not bad, each car has it's own fuel, they could have lumped them all together under one fuel system, the way they did it though you can just switch cars and keep playing. As well as the fact that everything can be earned through actually playing the game. I've played this game for a long time on mobile and have to disagree, they never make you buy anything, and there really isn't a slog to earn stuff, you just have to play the events and the career, and the career is really easy to 100% with only racing each race once or twice.
Never heard of this game until I saw an ad for it on youtube. It’s definitely fun, I would have gladly paid for this game if it wasn’t f2p.
Great review, Mark! This looks like a solid port. I d/l the f2p version on my iPad when it first came out and while the game itself is fun, the constant monetization makes playing a real chore. I'm almost scared to play it? and have to focus and pay extra attention ~(more than the race itself) in case I accidentally click on a purchase of some sort. Would have much preferred an all in 1 time price version.
the switch version of A9 does feel abit cleaner in terms of ads but the artificial barriers created to put you on the edge of spending real money as well as to limit the speed with which you progress are frustrating at times. you can grind progress bit by bit. my advice is dont rush yourself else you will be very frustrated just enjoy A9 for what it is, its just a game at the end of the day for most of us normal folk who are not Esports gamers with some high stakes on the line. nonetheless the core game itself is on point asphalt 9 is great on the switch. if only it was a full game like horizon chase turbo with out the caveats of F2P. i do give it a recommendation
As a "simracer" i don't have problems with arcade racers. I have a problem with the 360 slide though. I have no clue how that makes the game better and it looks so Fanta that it holds me off to even try this game.
The game is pretty nice, it basically meets all i wanted from a racing game, pure arcade, boost system, the chance to choose in single player how many laps i want to do, yes this is possible, i got it set 4 laps and a race lasted even 7 minutes, this was fantastic, i was afraid i could only race for 30 seconds or one minute, not at all. The only nay here is about the system progression, it's really hard to get new cars unless you want to spend lot of money, i was intentioned to spend 20 euros and purchase the basic beginner pack but i'm afraid this would not sort any effect in my progression.
Said charger on a challenger I’m triggered
(Insert troll face meme)
Watching this review while playing this game hahaha
Honestly despite what people say, I don't think Asphalt 9 is as bad as people say it is. The Pay to win concept hasn't really affected me, since I only used two dollars on this game, and I progressed a lot through the game without having to pay more than that. Grinding can be tedious, especially with the fuel system, but the reward is worth it in the end. That will help you get through a lot in this game which I really like. And also, getting In-game currency isnt that hard when there are thousands of events going on, giving you hundreds of tokens and thousands of credits, especially with daily events helping you get a ton of blueprints. Overall, I don't really see a problem with this game. The fuel system doesn't really bother me because im not playing 24/7 either way, so I think its an amazing game, and I think the game has the right to put micro transactions here and there, especially since this game looks beautiful, and its free, and you shouldn't really expect no paid content on free games.
I've been waiting for asphalt to hit the switch! We need to see more mobile games hit the switch. Maybe gta China Town wars hd or every gta from the ps2/psp days done in hd??
As much as I'd love a Burnout experience on Switch, I have a personal "No freemium" rule, so I'll be passing on this one - I'd much prefer they'd remaster the old Burnout games.
PS: Mark, you mentioned "the old Burnout games [...] from back on PlayStation" - the first two were also released on GameCube, which is where I remember them from! They were great games and also great showcases for the RenderWare engine.
Playing it and enjoying it!
While the fuel mechanic is a bit annoying, it makes you use all your other cars. In fact the amount of times I had to switch cars is quite great and honestly, I've gotten quite far as while there ARE a lot of paid content there are also loads of free events to get new cars. I'm not saying this review is false, I just found this game way too fun.
Agree with every point raised in this review. Got it on mobile and loved the look and arcade feel but some races were too short and I absolutely detest the nickle and dime scheme. I had to abandon it after realizing I'd need to spend money to progress fairly. And it isn't like you'd pay a one-time fee. The game really tries to milk every dime out of you
Thanks for the review! I’m not going to download this or Mario Kart Tour because I’m against micro transactions, gotcha mechanics, and gambling in video games. Many Casinos offer free chips to start and a lunch buffet for senior tour groups. This is the same business model but targeting a younger audience. I’m protesting with my wallet, and not even adding to their download numbers.
This will hold me over until grid comes out on a cartridge..
Still patiently waiting for Grid to get on a discount. OT: This seems like a great game for people with a bit less cash. Does feel too much like a pay to win game for me though, so I'm not going to download it unless the GF wants to give it a shot.
I mean the in game currency is really easy to earn and I like that when you play multiplayer matches it actually gives you a chance to open a pack of car cards it kind of gives you something to strive for while playing online matches.
My literal only complaint is that I hate that this game isn’t generous as much as a free to play Consol game should be there’s like only two cars you could unlock and a possible third car and that’s it that’s literally all the three cars I always see online and I really hate that not to mention that in past games like asphalt eight you could unlock decals that would make your car look so freaking cool with crazy designs and stuff
But in asphalt 9 you barely have any cool looking decals just a bunch of different colors which I like but if anything I would like there to be more generosity with opening packs because as of right now I’m already going kind of stale of how unexpressive and different you can be compared to online people when it comes to cars in the decals on your car etc etc.
Ohh when you say bornout you threw some dust on my face lol i was Crazy player back 😂 playing those game im very Impressed the storage is just less then 2GB maybe i download it my switch scream about the space on my Micro card next month i try to get 400gb xD. super thanks for review. 👌
Its a fun racer but oh my fucking god the level recommendations is so fucking in needed I can't get past some of the races because I'm lower than the recommendation so its almost as if the cars beat you no matter how good you are
Yeah! Almost like a pay gate...
Not so much of a racing game player but it looks like a fun game, still kinda look like a mobile game but with nicer graphics, well guess if you think of the free version it is worth the trouble, always thinking of the core game play, in this case looks good enough
it's originally a mobile game ported to switch 😂 with same graphics too
Solid as always
I would love to pay $20-40 and then get the microtransactions removed. It kinda ruins the fun knowing that the Lamborghini i just grinded my ass of for can be bought for $10.
Think I need a Switch love the Asphalt games. Asphalt 8 should be on this platform
I downloaded the demo but was disappointed it was online only, shame looks beautiful and so fun love the stimulus stunts. But I wanna play it on the train 😢,. I had to stop your video and give it a go at home on the big screen, I do enjoy it very burnout for free I’m loving it but have only done 2 races, looks fricking great
I appreciate this game for what it is... But, I'm quick to remember the days that these full fledged mobile games sold for about $7 on app stores, and had no micro-transactions Asphalt 6 was a great example of an Asphalt game done right! I don't recall a single micro-transaction in there, and I was much more happy to pay my 8$ to any Gameloft game out there.
No option to just pay a single fee for this game to remove all of the micro-transactions and time limiters from this game makes it hard for me to feel engaged or feel like this is worth playing. At least not when gems like GRID Autosport are on the switch now. Thanks for the review guys, I almost got the paid version thinking I would be good to go for the rest of the game!
Its such a shame so many games suffer from the mobilde gaming freemium crap.
Even in the Appstore on the phone i often just uninstall it within the first half hour
because i don't have the patience any more to deal with those mechanics, even though
the game looks interesting enough to maybe hook me in.
Exactly that. It's nonsense. Mark
I'd say it's running at around 45-50 FPS most of the time, with lots of motion blur. Feels a bit like there's input lag too but yeah overall, nice little free game, nice arcadey game. It's no classic Ridge Racer obviously but it's a bit closer than I might have thought. Too much fluff though, as you said
Woah!! I was thinking this was some F2P mobile bull****.
I did not realize IT'S BURNOUT BABY!! ❤️
I had the same feeling as you Mark. With all the flashing stickers and buttons and things. Made me feeling yucky.
The racing is kinda fun but the gambling aspect make me not like the game.
Exactly that. It's a shame. Mark
Played quite a bit of this one on mobile!
I wish they did for this what they did with the 3DS port of Asphalt 6 (called Asphalt 3D). Charge an up-front fee and remove the micro transactions. Most of them are bearable, like the coins to upgrade your car, but the refueling system really frustrates me.
Well done as always. These games have always been solid on mobile imo. I'll pick it up because it's free lol Can't complain with with. Will be a nice change from MK8 and Cars: Driven To Win.
I like this game because of the grinding. personally I don't mind the refuel.
I've always enjoyed these on Android, as you said it's the closest thing to Burnout we have on Switch. Man I miss those games
I wish i could pay the people of Asphalt 9 Legends to just no have a "gas" mechanic that ultimately forces you into a position of either "pay money to keep playing" or "find another racing game". And i think i'm going to find another racing game.
I really enjoy this game!
You really don't need to spend any real money to unlock cars in this game. Already have 46 cars unlocked with $0 spent, not even a dime
It’s the mobile game with split screen but has worse ways to unlock cars then 8 and has a slightly worse soundtrack then 8 which has an amazing soundtrack
Jesus, just imagine someone buy Switch and play Asphalt 9 on it. It's like buying golden plate and eat sh!it from it.
Lol! I just laughed out loud! Haha
So you call the everything shit or just the p2w stuff? if it's the p2w then okay you do you but if you call the graphics, car models, gameplay(for me) map design shit then your basically calling the people who worked hard on that shit that have nothing to do with your problem essentially making you way more of a shitty person for calling people shit for no reason
If you didn't have any money and downloaded the dragon quest demo that's some golden shit right there 😀 10 hour demo
A great game overall but MT are way too aggressive. A paid fully unlocked version would definitely hook me, or knowing that MT's cap around $100, but this has the potential to dig way too deep into our pockets. To end on a more positive note, I really appreciate the split screen multiplayer, kudos.
I would rather pay 30 bucks 🦌 for grid auto sport. I mean its free... if your looking for a solid racing game, I would recommend grid. I will still try out this game just because its free. If it would cost 1 cent I would not bother. Im not hating on the game or calling It poorly executed or anything, But if im looking for a good racing game then I would probably not get hooked on this. The fuel recharge and F2P completely kills this game for me.
Amazing review Switch up! Every video you guys upload truly is better than the last, improving in every way. This is my go-to review channel. Thanks for the amazing work you guys do here, I would sub twice if I could. Keep up the excellent content! 😊
Used to play this on my phone but i deleted it because it heats up my phone i would give it another try on the switch though it is free so why not?
Some of these fucking races are impossible even if you’re way higher than the recommended level. Fuck this game.
I actually enjoy the grind of the game.. Nd after a while you can kinda pick up the pattern and spend on things you would currently need to progress. Dope game for sure 💯
Just played it for a bit. The UI is horrible! Deleted it. I feel like I'm walking down a dark alley, preparing to be jumped and mugged at any time. It's just a really unpleasant experience. Great review, I'm going to go buy GRID.
@red swine haha, yeah i never thought i would either. That's how bad it is. Also, I'm a graphic designer, so that plays into it too.
This is unprecedented! Im first! But great review guys, i will only be spending money on Grid!, & just do the free to play
Yeah seems like a fair choice! Mark
this would make a perfect local multiplayer experience if it wasn’t bogged down with the god awful RNG/pay to win progression system. If you’re not willing to put in the time and money you and your friends would be stuck with the Lancer being the only car you can choose which can get real boring real quick. If they replaced the blueprint system for unlocking the car with purchasing them with in game credits like asphalt 8 or unlock them through in game tasks like any other racing game ever it would make for a much better experience overall
