I'm enjoying the Demo........Plays great, probably the best handling motorbike game since the old Polyphony Digital game "Tourist Trophy"


Pics of gameplay, taken by myself using the ingame photomode:

And lastly, not sure if the "To Be announced" is BMW

Or they have been pulled from the game.

Interesting.
BMW are in the demo though, perhaps as you say they have pulled out of the full game!?

Hmmm, I'll give the demo a go.

Can you modify the bikes in game?





Can I put a topbox on an R1 and create a true sports tourer?

Yes (A lot of aftermarket companies are onboard)

No

What platform are you playing on Chris?

I was going to get it for Xbox ONE, however it is delayed now so I'll get it on PS4.

I'll be getting Project CARS on Xbox ONE though (btw I keep seeing your drivatar on Forza Horizon 2 )

What are your initial thoughts, before I rush out and buy it?

Actually really enjoying it to be honest.

Opted for the Ducati as my first bike, the Triumph is a much better bike on spec so where's the fun in using that?
The underpowered little twin get's annihilated on the longer straights, however it corners and brakes well to you ride to it's advantages











Spent the evening and this morning (about 9-10hrs all in all) going through all the races for this bike, now time to sell her and upgrade.



Great little starter bike once goodies are added.



My ONLY gripe is with the loading times, even on my SSHD it is the slowest loading game I've experienced in a LONG time.
Unless I'm missing something there is no option to instal/load the game data to the SSHD upfront!?

I wonder if that will change on the Xbox ONE version when it comes out.

Are they all made up tracks or does the game have some real ones on it to ?

a mixture
Donington is incredible

I could spend all day riding this around here:

theshrew said:

I'm sort of tempted to get it hmmmmmm

Don't bother, it's gash

[y2blade]

No.

the loading times are truly ridiculous despite having a SSHD...there is no way of installing the game data to HD so every time you change track or event it has to load from scratch...same again after each track or event when you want to go back to menu, or change bike or next race selection..... If the load times are better on the Xbox ONE version I'll be getting it on that too.....honestly they are that SLOOOOOW....... MEGA GAME though

[y2blade]

Next group of races, again I choose one the slowest bikes in class...had some incredible races.

Also bought this, one of the best sounding bikes so far (they all sound pretty good tbh):

ZERO support from Milestone.
