Any other PC drifting games with low-to-med spec requirements?
I don't think so.
Pros:
+ Very nice drifting physics
+ Quite a lot of cars, many still in development though
+ Not Pay2win
+ Vinyl system encourages creativity and allows you to replicate real life liveries (although with fictional aftermarket logos)
+ You compete against other people's ghost record = no lag, no sync error, you can pause mid-match
+ Money farming isn't tedious and slow
+ Car customization: body kits, rims, spoilers, vinyls and decals
+ Fine tuning option is one of the best and most complete among lots of racing games.
+ Perfect for both casual drift players and hardcore drift enthusiasts
+ You can play this using keyboard (now, think about how many drifting games impossible to play on keyboard.. and then there's Peak Angle, which is comfy on keyboard!)
Cons:
- You compete against other people's ghost record = not 100% multiplayer, but hey, I'll still take it
- No car performance downgrade feature (yet).
- Many of the cars still don't have customizable body kits (many visual models are still in development, so this makes sense).
Controversial topic:
The developers have recently decided to put three-quarter of the total car amount into DLCs. Now, before everyone goes crazy, I'd like to inform that all players who have accumulated over 500.000 Credits (Cr) at any point of their gameplay get free access to all DLCs; they can buy the cars in-game without having to purchase the DLCs.
On the other hand, new players who buy the game after the DLC update are left with only 7 cars. Although this game is not pay-to-win at all, this renders all newer players unable to collect cars without buying DLCs.
However, are the DLCs worth the money? While most people will answer "No", I leave the answer to all of you. One DLC contains 2 to 4 cars, some even with a body-kit set unlock. Surely, if a player likes the content of a DLC, they will definitely buy it. But, with the price of the DLCs right now? I can say that most people will choose other games, and I agree. However, this is due to the fact that many of the game's cars are still in development.
Therefore, I can conclude that this DLC implementation is rather too early as the game itself still doesn't have enough cars.
Conclusion:
A perfect drift game for both casual and drift enthusiasts. Although the game is still in development, it is really good in terms of physics and customization. If you don't have a really beefy PC but want a nice and non-demanding drifting game, you should really consider picking this one up.
NOTE:
After the Version 205 update, the game connection might've been bugged a bit. At the moment, players might experience an issue in profile saving.
However, FEAR NOT! The devs are the kind that listen to the players! They're active on the forum and take suggestions, as well as answer players' questions. Additionally, they always try to provide solutions to players' problems.
