Early Access Review
If you asked me in December 2014, I couldn't recommend this enough, but as much as I love(d) this game, I cannot recommend it right now. Since the engine overhaul which released in around June last year, the game has had all the fun removed.

Bad driving physics, poor body deformation, God-awful health bar which had no reason for existing and absurd changes to the car cams have all contributed to this ill-feeling to what was a very promising game.

The developers don't listen to any feedback, make absurd changes like those I already mentioned, then don't work with the community to improve or remove features, they just truck on with whatever distorted vision they have. There is also a severe lack of direction right now, which also contributes to absurd changes.

Put simply - The build prior to the engine overhaul (build 6), we had player-run leaderboards, championships and events. Now, since build 7 onwards, we have had very little of that. Until Build 6 returns, this is a STAY AWAY.

I'm still hopeful if they can hit beta before the end of the year.

I think the racing physics are an improvement, but it has lost some of the arcade fun. Before the easier driving made the gap between fast and slow racers much smaller.

The health bar coming in beta looks a lot better at least. Current one annoyed the heck out of me when it first came out.

Would still like to see build 6 return as an optional beta. Would be fun to re-visit.

Anyway gonna miss your presence out on the track and in the forums. Take care mate.
