Great start then.Came back to it about 3~5 days later and demo started so gave it a go. Demo was alright so bought the game.Generally gameplay is pretty good, but you really have to grind on this one, which I don't really mind. Graphics aren't worth a millions bucks, no damage sim at all, so mega crashes can happen and no damage appears.Have not had a single game with other humans, so I can't say what the servers are like, however I often lag so its trying to reach a server.AI is alright, but very predictable. When race is going from wet to dry the AI pits way to early.Overall game is not too bad. If you enjoy motorsport then give it a go, however if you aren't a motorsport person maybe try the demo before buying. Demo is basically whole game at the moment as most stuff has "Coming Soon" (tm Blizzard) all over it, so apart from the cap on races per day the demo is pretty much the main game.Overall, a 3\/5. Probably more of a 50\/50 then a recomend, but it's beter than 50% so its a "recommend" nevertheless.Edit: Game has not been updated in 18 months. Its dead. So much potential wasted. Aboid. I really think this game has great potential but it needs more polish doesn't feel like a complete game. I want more.... Only time will tell...... TLDR; Cool concept, for a pretty niche community. Unfortnately there's no singleplayer mode and finding other players can take upwards of 10 minutes. Controls can feel unresponsive, but gameplay is genuinely fun. Online community feels dead and the game lacks varitey and customisability.I imagine they'd also be rolling out more updates in the future for more content, as it is there are 6 tracks and 6 different cars. When you start out you have no cars theres 6 to pick from and you have a choice of the first two as they are under 200K which is what you're given when you start out. The car models do look pretty good and was impressed with the details they were able to put into the models. After buying the car you want, take it to your garage and with whatever spare cash you have left you might be able to get an upgrade. The upgradeable aspects of your car are the brake, ECU, Exhaust, bodywork, suspension, KERS, spoiler, cooling and a few others. Upgrades will change the car in terms of fuel economy, top speed, accleration, drag, braking power and do matter. For instance the car I was using was kitted to last only about 25km's without pitting but I had constantly more power to use and ended out on top. Most races won't be longer than 50km's, also note drivers can be more fuel economic whilst driving.Once you're actually in-game it's pretty fun, you instruct your AI driver around and tell him when to use KERS, push harder, when to change the car's fuel map, pitstops and block. Controls can feel like they are unresponsive at times but that's due to driver stats which can be upgrades with experience points.Experience points can be used to increase the speed of certain aspects of your pitstop, increase the skill of your driver; how confident he is with braking and overtaking and how much speed he can carry through corners. You also have a manager who handles all your sponsorship contracts, you can give him greater chance of securing a contract and he can land better contracts for you aswell.Contracts themselves aren't overly fun to handle. You're given 10 time units and every action uses a certain amount of time units, time units are replentished after each race. Pretty easy mechanic but monotonous is a good way to describe sponsorship (10\/10 immersion there). To actually land a deal you need to call up the sponsor which you might or might not get through to. Once you're in you can invite them out to dinner, send them gifts, give a presentation on your raceteam few other options I've forgotten. Each option will better the relationship between you and whomever you're chasing up.Once a you manage to squeeze out a contract offer you can change the aspects of the contract, how much you get paid, for how many races and what position you need to come in to adhere to those conditions of receiving the funds.All up I would recommend this game if they added more varitey and the online community was bigger, it's a fairly niche market so this game may never live up to it's full potential. In it's current state I wouldn't recommend this game.Apologies for the length of the review, it all got a bit out of hand. Cheers.. I used to like this game while it was still in Early Access, but the game has basically died with no updates. They released it from Early Access too early before the game was really done and now this sub-par result is what we are stuck with.Get Motorsport Manager instead of this. PLAY THIS GAME IF YOU LOVE MOTORSPORT AND CIRCUIT RACINGThis game uniquely explores how important it is to properly manage tyres and fuel for pitstops as well as the importance of playing the strengths of cars to their fullest, you must determine when and where to push the car to its limits and when to drive it more economically. You'll be constantly doing math to figure out if you're under or exceeding your fuel quota and you will also be watching the tyre wear so you don't burn them out too fast and make the wear eat into your lap times.To add to the mix you can monitor what actions and strategies the opponents are employing throughout the race, this will sometimes make you rethink your strategy - will you let him pass and tail him or will you run your car at 100% and try to outrun him and if so, for how long? Keep in mind that running the car at full throttle eats into fuel and you'll finish most races with 0% - 5% fuel remaining so choose wisely.The tuning aspect of the game allows you to buy newer and better parts, some more suited for speed and power while others are suited better for handling and fuel economy, the challenge is to build a car that is well adapted for most situations and having strengths that can be used to secure wins. Your team can be upgraded too which consists of a Driver, the Pit Crew and lastly your Marketing Manager who is in charge of obtaining sponsorship deals.The game is still early in development phase and has numerous errors or design faults but it still brings a lot to the table, races are randomly selected and sometimes you will be put into a race where your cars setup has almost no chance of placing within the top 5 not even looking at first, this will be ironed out down the line but can detract from the experience. Pitstop bugs have happened before as well and I've had a few bugs with tyre selection costing me races in the past but I'm willing to overlook them for the time being while the developer fixes then; the developer is very active and open with progress on the steam forums so help is never too far away.And lastly a piece of advice for the people who are considering or have just bought the game and have yet to choose a car: buy the Raptor if you want an easier experience, buy the Avalanche if you want to grind your face into the wall but learn a lot more about strategy and have a greater challenge on the managing side of things. This game is ideal for those who know a lot about racecraft but are looking to expand their knowledge on race strategy.. Has massive potential but it really should be in early access. For a mainly multiplayer game the net code is really poor, with lag causing the game to be unplayable. With the tiny player base and lack of content I really can't recommend it.In 18 months with a F2P business model it could be a great game.. It's real fun, and even though it's buggy, the devs are active, also in multiplayer, and I have faith it will be a great game!It's not an in-depth manager, I hope they will improve on that in the future. Once you have done a few races and get a hang of the controls it's a real blast! This is a multiplayer racing game where you can only blame yourself for getting bumped off the track :). This review is based on Early Access launch Version:The game is abit bare on Content but that should change as it progresses. The game itself is pretty solid and fun to play. It's a mix of the sit back and watch your strategy play out as a "Manager" but more involved aswell as you have enough control over what the car does to make quite a difference.This game is Multiplayer Only, which i personally like and enjoy, but those of you looking for a Simgleplayer Experience may not be satisfied with this.the lack of cars\/tracks\/features aside, this is a pretty solid game and has got alot of potential. I would Recommend this to those who enjoy Online games where you'r managing a racing team but not quite having direct control of the cars themselves and watching your strategies play out.. Abandonware.Release was lacking, DEVs kept writing they have "real" jobs, and bills to pay. Also, they wanted to keep supporting the game once they have more funds, but it has been over a year now since any update, consider it as dead.
