So we bougt this game to play it as Multiplayer and did expect this to be a work in progress as it being early access. We do really like and enjoy this game, but there's some issues to address just to warn players of possible problems that might turn them off to the game. If you have the patience, understanding and tolerance this could be a great game for you. But the issues this game has, doesnt make me feel the pricetag is worth it, sorry.
The biggest issue is [u] desync [/u], everyone has tried in newer games and is hopfully fixable with time.
The delay from clients, both during activities or handling and driving is really bad, we had issues where cars were crashing together while driving even tho we werent close to eachother.
World needs optimization, the random seed is great, but the transfer from one "world-tile" to the next could do with some smoothing. Client could, while on the road, suddently meet a big difference in height when moving from one "world-tile" to the next.
Geolocation in the world is also missing for clients, like big rocks or cliff would be rendered for the host, but not the clients. So especially driving off-road would be very dangerous, as the client cars would suddently dissapear into the ground, or suddently assume flight because it was inside a big rock only the host could see.
The game lacks optimization, as you get further and further in progress, its like previous items met in the world still cost ressources even tho you've left behind many kilometers ago.
We noticed a lot of framedrops, both on host and client.
The trailer really doesnt work, every bump on the road sends it flying.
[b] This will be a great game. [/b]
Its open world, and everything you want to do with the vehicles you can more or less do.
For us, we like to do a meticulous piece of work, working for your goals and enjoy collecting and building.
