Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds

Game is fun for a bit until you play for a while, hit legend rank/legend comp, and realize how atrocious online matches can get and how bad the balancing for this game is, but to summarize it a bit. ‣ Items are still a problem in matches where you can easily drop from a solid 1st or 3rd to 9th or 10th due to the constant item spam + players constantly slip streaming off each other. I can't tell you how many races where I get hit by an item, only to then recover and get hit by another item and land into a solid 11th or 10th place. ‣ Who thought that item chance based on how far you are from whoever is in 1st place was a good idea? Why is it that I could be in 8th place only to get a single boost while some guy behind me is getting a monster truck or drill off rip or even worse sitting in 5th or higher and still getting these items? ‣ Slip streaming is STILL a problem. Players are grouped into these massive clumps where you're constantly bumming into each other. God forbid you use something that's low on the power stat such as the hoverboards or acceleration cars. If you're not using the meta, you'll barely have control over your vehicle at times. ‣ Losing control over your vehicle after getting ran over by a monster truck is peak game design, especially on tracks where you can easily fall off while being busy drifting. ‣ Hitting a player with an item only to see them not be affected at all due to desync... ‣ We can't block players from matching up with them? (even the ones that are suspect of disconnecting from matches due to getting a placement in a race they didn't want) Or a match history stat that shows how frequent disconnects are in matches? ‣ Glitches/bugs on certain tracks that can kill your run... ‣ Another 3 months of mine cart, ring engine, and perfect charge bounty... while barely buffing anything else... ‣ No extra game modes for online, you are completely locked to the typical 12 player race, outside of festivals. ‣ Allowing players to bag certain items (monster trucks, laser whips, etc) for the entire race is a choice. tl:dr - The game is fun if don't frequently play online, only play with friends, or you actually enjoy the new but actually not new meta (hyper ring engine, perfect charge bounty, 130 rings, and lvl 2 charge) but if you're someone like me who's been playing for a while now (currently legend 5), you'll feel like the game fundamentally hasn't changed so far and all this competitive stuff such as legend comp 6 and world championship just feels like a goofy attempt at pushing Esports.

$70 is not worth it. Buy it on sale like I did. Tracks feel too flat, linear, and unpolished. Having riders characters feels like a cash grab imo feels strange with the tracks like they don't fit. Using Items are annoying some are large, can't hardly see when racing and some are the same. Feels like too much clutter in the game with mechanics etc. Cool tricks, I like the boat tricks. I wish tricks wasn't automatic feels like it. Overall you can put hours in it its fun...

Depois de platinar esse jogo, posso dizer com tranquilidade que ele virou um dos meus jogos de corrida favoritos. Muita gente olha para ele e fala que os crossovers são aleatórios ou que tem personagens que não combinam com o universo do Sonic. Sinceramente? Para mim, essa é justamente uma das partes mais divertidas. Ver personagens de diferentes franquias correndo juntos deixa cada corrida mais única e imprevisível. Mas o que realmente me conquistou foram as pistas. Dá para perceber o carinho colocado nelas, principalmente para quem acompanha a franquia há anos. Correr por cenários inspirados em jogos como Sonic Unleashed e Sonic Frontiers foi uma experiência incrível. Em vários momentos eu me pegava admirando as referências em vez de prestar atenção na corrida. A jogabilidade também é muito divertida. A interação dos personagens, as corridas são agitadas e sempre acontece alguma coisa que transforma a disputa em uma completa loucura. É aquele tipo de jogo que você entra para jogar uma corrida rápida e, quando percebe, já passou horas. As DLCs também ajudam bastante, trazendo ainda mais personagens e conteúdo para quem gosta de crossovers. Para alguns isso pode parecer exagero, mas para mim só deixou o jogo ainda mais interessante. No fim das contas, esse é um daqueles jogos que me divertiu do começo ao fim. Platinar foi uma experiência muito prazerosa e eu provavelmente vou continuar jogando mesmo depois de conquistar todas as conquistas 👍

I got it 50% off and am having an absolute blast!!! I've mostly played it on my Steam Deck OLED plugged into my 4K resolution TV and it runs on max settings flawlessly! Played a lot of split screen and occasionally it would dip to 45 fps whenever driving into the warp, but as soon as you're in the next realm it's back to 60 fps!

If you're thinking about buying. Don't like actually don't if you want to keep your sanity. If this is a kids game then im a potato in the mud. I have wanted to smash my monitor at least 5295071423907501923740 times since installing. if you want a single player experience then go ahead. but if you're planning on racing online id just spend my money elsewhere. EVERYONE uses that stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ monster truck starter which imo SHOULD BE REMOVED the monster truck itself needs to be HEAVILY NERFED. and the invuln after being hit needs to get doubled cause you can just get comboed into last place and the game just ♥♥♥♥♥ you over hard!!!!!! like i dont care how little points you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lose its too many points. honestly if you get ♥♥♥♥♥♥ over that hard in a game the devs should just give you your money back and then 10% more on top while letting you keep the game as a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way to help pay off the medical debt you're gonna be in after needing a mental institution. and you can say "Oh skill issue skill issue" UP YOURS BUDDY it took me probably 17 hours to hit legend rank! and its been nothing but me wanting to ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ break ♥♥♥♥ since! they need to heavily rebalance this game if they want online to be an okay experience. Just play with your friends or the single player ♥♥♥♥ if you want this game that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bad. online is a nightmare and its literally garbo. I really honestly hope and pray that the devs read this message and realize they have some major patches that are needed. Oh and to further my point on the bs on this game, im using basically the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ build as a player i ran into with 63k points. guess what was different? MY CART i dont have any of the dlc. but the best build in the game is garbage without the minecart. Seems like to be good at the game you gonna spend even more money than their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ $70 price tag. PTW bs nerf the minecart, nerf the monster truck, extend the invuln so its more balanced. or just idk get a good anti cheat? Ive ran into several speed hackers. like do something with your game devs its done nothing but ruin my love for sonic and his friends. FIX YO ♥♥♥♥♥

Перед финишем меня раздавили, в меня влетела дрель, потом 3 ракеты, меня переехали на монстр траке, отрезали жопу, и в итоге с 1го места улетел на 12, рекомендую

this game is like the abusive ex i keep coming back to while the girl in the corner called Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed that regularly goes on sale for $5, doesn’t disconnect me every 20 minutes in online, and doesn’t induce suicide in me everytime I get hit by an item waits for me to realise I’m better off with her

This is the worst kart-racing game in term of balancing ever: from constant slicer taking away your items, random gloves hitting u out of nowhere, bombs bouncing around crushing u with barely any warnings (in short items play is just spamming to dead); net code is horrible with so much desync bumping; most maps are just ok or even mid nothing outstanding; so many gadgets just to boil down to u either play meta build or just straight up lost no fun build allow. I like racing game and love these characters but this is not enough and it shows cause the game doesn't even have much players active. The devs don't really listen they just want to push out shiny contents while ignore the core problems. I'm so tired to see such a wasted potential :(

best Kart racer since MK8 Deluxe. shame about the garbage price-tag because hardly any of my friends are willing to pay for it even on sale. but most fun iv had with a kart racer in a long long time. Salt and all~
