I'm seeing a growing pattern with the Motorpass (which is probably intentional). For each Motorpass that is introduced, the vehicles offered with it seem to significantly improve your performances in the Season-specific events. I personally hate this Motorpass but if the vehicles have been proven to be helpful in the events, then they'd probably benefit me where it counts: THE SUMMIT EVENTS.
So I'm asking the gear heads of TC2. Have you noticed if the Motorpass-exclusive vehicles help you benefit more in the Season-specific events? For example, like THE CHASE vehicles significantly improve SR Time Trial times or how THE AGENCY Nighthawk makes wheeling significantly easier to pull off?
I can confirm that. The new motorpass-cars are all mediocre to say the least, in fact the VW-bus and this icecreamtruck look interesting but are actually total crap. (I tested them in the pre-recording before they got into the game.) The Corvette is also nothing to worry about and the Shelby is better than most of the old rx-cars but definitely not better than the Lancer or the Escalade (for example). The only mp-car so far that can considered to be "pay2win" was the M8 Interceptor.
Handling bonus?Originally Posted by Mike41k Go to original post
Well you can't deny that when THE CHASE was around, the vehicles offered in the Motorpass gave a significant performance increase over the FREE ones and any other vehicle you could use during the Summit Events. And besides the Kawasaki, no other MX bike seems to be able to pull off wheelies as good or as quickly as the Nighthawk.
I can pull wheelies with normal or Red Bull KTM just as easily. But Nighthawk has highest top speed among all MX bikes.
Same story with VW bus MT in current battle pass. Average handling, acceleration is similar to other top MTs so it doesnt give any advantage in stunt events. But it has the highest top speed, outpacing closest competition by at least 10-15 kmh. It just destroys both RR-style MT events. I just unlocked it today. Top 30 in wide wide west event on 1st attempt solo (outside of summit ofc since summit is vehicle locked). No doubt you can easily beat WR in crew before someone else realizes how busted this thing is.
"Armored" Corvette is a bit faster than its normal version but nothing special overall. Americar combines newer handling model with easy drifts but again nothing special, there are faster cars and Audi is even easier to drift (probably the best RX for stunts right now, if you dont exploit them ofc). Icecream truck is just a meme.
