It looks impressive, and I do want to make Vancakes... Seams a bit expensive for an early access game, and it is going to tax my aging gaming PC a bit, but overall it looks like a lot of fun!

The option to fully customize your car (gated shifters for all the things!) also looks pretty enticing.

That looks like loads of fun.

Buy it. It’s just as fun as it looks.

Although, it’s like Minecraft in the sense that you’ll play it 24/7 and then get bored of it really fast. But then it’s still fun every now and then.

I tried an earlier version and honestly it wasn’t very good. Crash physics were impressive and all that, but driving was pretty terrible. Cars are stupidly bouncy and difficult to control, and that’s coming from a reasonably experienced simracer. Unless they made the cars less bouncy in the newer versions I wouldn’t recommend it.

I’m waiting till it goes on sale, looks like it’d be a fun game in stints but perhaps not a game I could put a lot of hours into.

my main issue with it is that the cars are to elasticky and wobble more than they should

That’s my thought as well. Once this hits a Steam Sale I’m sure I’ll pick it up.

I forgot all about BeamNG. Used to be involved with Rigs of Rods (the same makers of BeamNG). I need to buy it one day.
