I'm a big fan of what the devs have done with this game. Can tell it was made by riders. Helmet cam is phenomenal. Attention to detail is amazing too. Can tell this is a Quality over Quantity game (8 bikes), which is not an issue. Would love to see more tracks in the future
@@vsmaster6162 how so? Yes the curbs can be a headscratcher at times, but how the game makes you think about corner speed, lean angle and momentum is refreshing. It's not perfect by any means but by far the best bike game in terms of physics on the market
@@vsmaster6162 No game is, but this is definitely the closest yet compared to anything else. Especially Milestone physics which are just ridiculous & total arcade & total crap
@@thatboysims3k879 RiMS Racing is by far the single most realistic bike sim on the market. VSMaster has no idea what he's talking about, and doesn't know anything about bikes.
I'm glad RIMS exists because Milestone just has no competition, they were always able to make 7/10 games at best. I like Ride 3 and 4 but they're all missing too much stuff and Milestone just never bothered, because they never needed to. I wish they'd keep updating the game instead of abandoning it already and then releasing Ride 5 years later. Polyphony did that with GT Sport and it turned out well.
Came here to say that exact thought! It brings new elements in motorcycle genre. Physics seem more realistic, the wear of tires and components based on your driving style and actions, all the temperatures, is bringing the motorcycle racing (sim) game much closer to car racing sims. I would say that RiMS, as it is at the moment, with bike selection found in Ride(3,4) has massive potential to be great hit - both for casual and sim racers. I would add just one more thing, referring to single player mode, and it is a negative one. The difficulty settings. They should have more options in career mde. I've found the middle one is the best, but it is far from great since you can't select custom options and some components of difficulty are paired, and they definitely should not be. Ideal settings options, in my mind, would be: one part - opponent riders level (and aggression), second part - tire and component ware and crash severity, and third, last, but not least, the management for an event (skipping and restarting, number of laps and so on). Oh, one more thing: menu and navigation. Should have taken from older gran turismo games, and the used bike market is not a bad idea, I think...?
Milestone are too busy making rally games and Motogp to actually give a fuck about the arcade spin off "ride" the last time they gave a fuck was ride 3 but even that was hardly fun compared to rims.
RiMS is hands down the most realistic motorcycle simulator I have ever tried in my life. I've been riding for many years, including track days. Wow. I am blown away. Truly amazing. The motorcycle components also wear and deteriorate as you ride the bike, and depends on how hard you stress them. That is a welcome and immersive feature. The bike customization is also great. Very in-depth, and fantastic. But it's just such a shame how TERRIBLE the career mode has been structured. Absolute garbage. Firstly, you don't get much opportunity to actually ride the bike which you have customised. By that, I mean, you mostly only get to participate in some random races, with no practice time. The rest of the career forces you to ride stock bikes, often in the same manner. And the track list is small. The tracks are laser scanned, so they are very high quality, but I just wish they would have included tracks like Sepang, Phillip Island, Dijon Prenois, and Grobnik.
@@ExtraterrestrialExcrement It's a very, very realistic bike sim, with bikes which behave EXACTLY like they do in real life. So racing 40 laps, going as fast as you can, without crashing, can be a challenge. Even 15 laps will be hard, because the components wear. As they wear, the bike can require more concentration from you, especially if you are pushing components hard. Check out a channel called "Urban Chaos 2.0" He has some pretty cool RiMS Racing videos.
I was just watching another gaming channel's review on this game and they said it was disappointing. Also they wouldn't recommended it because it's too hard to play for the causal gamer. Luckily someone in the comments pointed out that the person reviewing the game had horrible breaking lines and kept trying to play the game like they were playing an arcade racer. The commenter also posted the link to this video as well and I'm happy they did. I'm subscribing and I'm also getting the game.
this is exactly why I almost never will pay any attention to a review of a motorbike racing game. As someone who rides motorbikes I want them to feel like it feels to ride. The person reviewing this game here is obviously not a rider either, as he keeps saying 'driving' :)
love this game, but feel that there needs to be a update in the physics.... lowsiding when its actually a highside, bikes being waaay too sensitive to slips is kinda frustrating
Rims Racing, TT2 is very good aswell you can't go wrong getting both, realistic challeging and rewarding will get the adrenaline pumping. Ride4 and MotoGp are more casual they look great though but as biker myself they just dont scratch that itch.
@@ExtraterrestrialExcrement Yeah me to because Rims is harder to control than a real bike lol, TT2 has balance of bike control and being able to push the bike about right just like i would be able to on a real bike. Fingers crossed they do a tt3 on next gen before long.
@@messiahshow i knew it, but thanks😊. The only bad thing in ride 4 is, that you need to drive it at least 3 laps, when you make a race. And in the career are only races with too many laps too (5 or more for example).
In my opinion TrackDayR is the best motorcycle simulator (not the best game since it has no career mode) but the simulation is by far the best in motorcycle simulation. Maybe you could do a review on it? ;)
No. Track Day R is quite behind in terms of physics. Even behind GP Bikes. And GP Bikes is quite bad, because the people making bikes for that game don't know ANYTHING about bikes. Those bikes handle like they're on ice, and don't have much weight to them.
Just a warning. If you don't like arcade style racers, this game isn't for you. I just purchased it and have requested a refund ... I understand the hard work the devs have put in this game but is is unplayable on PS4... My fps runs below 20 and dips until the game freezes ...
depending on language translation (not in this case) it's drive as standard. being in transport outside of our own control when it comes to vehicles is riding (passenger) as riding the bus, and something we are in control of is driving (driver) as in driving the bus. that said i'm not sold on neither this or Ride 4 😂 i'm holding out for an open world like Horizon series but for bikes.
They can barely keep that show on the road, let alone make a game. A satellite Moto3 seat is a more sought after and respected ride than a factory WSBK seat.
It's the only game I've ever tried to get a refund for. It's a typical Kylotonn game: Rough, unpolished, unfinished and basic. The fluidity of Moto GP and the clunky, cartoony physics of this mess couldn't be further apart.
Rather buy a racing game full of bikes than this motorbike mechanic simulator... Total bull.hit to pay for only 8 bikes... No one cares about 500 spare trash
It came out not long ago plus there arent that many bike racing teams that want to give their licences that easily, it easy to bash the game but look from different perspectives.
To be fair you ever watched any bike race in real life? It’s ether Japanese or Italian bikes an some German showing off there super sport models with a variation of like 5 bike models through all brands, just in difference cc’s , that covers 90% of real life racing, there’s not really a need for hundreds of bikes, main thing is low to high cc engines, if there focusing on racing then it will be the super sport bikes only and I get that,

"Winning championships is what you Ride 4." I see what you did there
other than the lean over speed, this game is unbeatable right now. makes ride 4 look like from the 90s
My Summer Bike? Although, I'm not sure the use the word "realistic" would survive after an encounter with Piboso's GP Bikes.
What about GP Bikes?
Great review, interesting game. On a side note, the narrator really sounds like Luke Reilly from ign.
I hope 150cc available. Like Jupiter MX king, sonic, vixion, cb150r, or matic like vario.
Whats the best out of ride 4. Motogp22 or rims racing, for someone who rides and races real bikes irl?

full map in game
Rims is the best motorcycle Sim there is by far. Moto Gp isn't even close to Sim & like all Milestone games is just bad arcade physics.
no multiplayer... pass
most realistic is a game name ,,GP Bikes'' pc not motogp
Game name ??
You do not drive a motorcycle. You ride a motorcycle. It hurts to listen to.
its got awful graphics , prefer ride 4 by a country mile

If a bike "sim" doesn't have Cadwell Park on it's track list.. sorry.. you're not close to a sim.
