First I must speak about the addition of boats and planes for which I have mixed feelings. It is indeed cool to fly above the map and to drive a boat across the game’s rivers and seas, but the handling of those vehicles is terribly bad. Games like GTA V annihilate The Crew 2 on that aspect.I am also very disappointed in what regards the map. It is recycled from The Crew 1, but with even less details. Small cities have been removed, a few roads have been cut (for the anecdote I even drove on a 2-lane highway that abruptly stops to become a one-way road… And I hate this X-Games vibe. The map looks like a giant playground, pink and fluo everywhere because of the starting points of races/events that take a huge space a bit everywhere on the map. Let’s keep in mind that it is still a pleasure to drive across this large world with one of your favorite cars, but it lacks the details that made The Crew 1 a good game. You can even feel that with the community. Before, all the people I’d meet during my drives would always be friendly and we’d just naturally start riding together and doings some sprints or road trips. In The Crew 2, I didn’t feel this anymore. Because of the battle pass - or whatever it’s called - grind, people are all in a hurry and doing some pointless farming. By including too many of those superficial items, they took the freedom that comes with The Crew away.For what regards the cars lineup, it’s not different enough from The Crew 1 (again) but I played the game in 2021 so DLC compensate a bit (but you’re still light years away from Forza Horizon).The game doesn’t look too bad compared to The Crew’s first generation graphics. There are some decent reflections and cars look decent. Considering the size of the map that is acceptable for a game released in 2018. I also like the fact that it keeps receiving updates and a few DLC vehicles.Finally, I can talk about the handling. Well it’s like The Crew 1, it’s very odd in the beginning but you can get used to it. Not a fan of it but acceptable enough to enjoy driving a bit.Overall, this game feels like a downgrade from its older sibling The Crew. Not technically of course, but it lost its identity to create something that doesn’t fit. It took away some elements that made The Crew a good game in its time, and awkwardly recycled the rest by committing grotesque mistakes. Because of the total void of open-world racing games on PS4, The Crew 2 remains a good reference and will remain enjoyable especially for people who discover the franchise.

The Crew 2 is a very funny game, but it has it's flows, and there are not few. The opportunity to drive different air, sea and land vehiclesThe Crew 2 is a very funny game, but it has it's flows, and there are not few. The opportunity to drive different air, sea and land vehicles in a huge open world map is one of the biggest attractives in this game. The car's design is good, but the racing phisics are very unrealistic, and sometimes the gameplay is very annoying, with countless bugs. Also, the constant need for an internet connection is not necessary for a balanced experience, I experienced several servers crashes. So, it's a good game, but if you are looking for a more realistic arcade experience, go for Forza Horizon, or if what you want is a simulator, go for Gran Turismo.

It's gone and has been replaced with a tiny completely useless route on a mini map. So while you drive 200mph and make constant turns, you can take your eyes off the road to check the minimap.Did you like the exploring monuments? Gone.Did you like uncovering the map as you explore? Gone.Did you enjoy upgrading cars through skills? Gone.Did you enjoy all of the skills plastered around map? Gone.No PvP at launch. Aweful handling. Unrealistic collision.But at least they kept the rubberbanding.

The Crew 2 approaches us with a decent, but kind of repetitive campaign, but i'm sad to report that while this game approaches the gamingThe Crew 2 approaches us with a decent, but kind of repetitive campaign, but i'm sad to report that while this game approaches the gaming market correctly (by being creative unlike it's counterparts) this game seems to lack a proper PvP mode.In the current gaming world, you need to have the ability to collaborate or compete with friends by more than simply racing. That's why free drive routes were so effective in the first game, as you could set a waypoint for the people in your convoy, and race to a destination with your friends, essentially being able to create custom routes with checkpoints. And this is the main problem. The summit is a let down also and since that's the only thing pretty much keeping the game alive, the game has essentially silenced itself, making it seem like Ubisoft doesn't really care.Overall, the game is good value for money, but only if on sale. Such a shame really.
