The "How to Silence the Nay-sayers and Ubisoft Haters" guide
As the open beta wraps up in the Pacific, so far, the game is alright. It is a racing game, and it's a good one. But, everything has its flaws, The Crew 2 is no exception. After playing the game, and looking into the forums, I've compiled a list of things Ubisoft should work on so they can (hopefully) patch the game up by July
1: Fix those damn headlights
Self-explanatory. The headlights on most cars are pretty dim at night, and need to be corrected
2: Make exploration a thing again
Adding landmarks and data towers like in the first game will take some time, and probably won't be finished by the first few days of July, but some exploration aspects can be fixed. One of these include the option to take trains and planes to locations that aren't unlocked. Speaking of which, you know how you can't fast travel to places you've been to before if they aren't an event or skill? Yeah, that needs to be fixed
3: Touch up the steering physics
The physics of this game have, in my opinion, improved massively from the first game. But some improvements are still needed, especially with new types of vehicles. One post described the handling similar to bumper cars, similar to the old Gran Turismo games. That may or may not be an easy fix, although I've never tried to code a giant game. (But scrapping a game that has been worked on for years?... Really, dude?)
4: Fix the ******* difficulty
I've had hands on experience with this. The sprint boat race in Las Vegas is a perfect example, my boat was stock, but was still above the reccomended power. I had to restart almost 15 times before I could win! I was absolutely fuming during the race, what with the girl who is always on your tail no matter how much you spam the nitrous, and with the extremely thin waterway (I don't know what to call it, water road?). A similar thing happens in the Miami street race, the one where one of the characters mentions there is a baby seat in one of the cars (Despite none of those cars being a middle-class ride in any way).
5: Give us a better parts system
I used to be able to grind skills and make my car better and better, or just buy some parts when I'm not in the mood. But now, you can't even buy parts, and you're REALLY lucky if you get even one part after finishing a skill. This is not straightforward at all, which is what is was in the first game (Well, kind of).
That's it! If you have any suggestions as to what else should be added/fixed/changed, let me know. See you on release!
