![]() I guess I'm riding my bike wrong, cause when I'm riding at the track I get all my shifting down before I turn in. For some reason Milestone thinks engine braking is better at slowing the bike down than actually using the brakes. Braking: Braking is still bad as it ever was.Because you could at the least choice course that suited your tastes and the objectives were reasonable. In previous Ride games you had WAY more flexibility with the career so if it wasn't really what you were into you could make it less painful. The other option is an insane limited career mode. Single races regardless of setting don't really pay out, so you'd have to spend HOURS to get enough to buy a standard bike let alone a modified bike. pretty much everything is locked and priced insanely high. They advertised play how you want but that's not true at all. Pretty much any contact sends you flying. If you are in a pack the AI will just force you off the line. You either have to check out at the start or be frustrated with being taken out all of the time. You watch the AI react to each other but not to you. Quite simply there is no AI awareness of the player. AI: stated its bad with the only saving grace is that at least most of the time this go round they crash with you when they take you out.but you'd think if it were you'd think the vendors would want the focus on the newer lineup vs older stuff they don't sell anymore Gear: A few upgrades but still basically a rehash of gearset from previous games.I know it had more power buy why would the 07/08 R1 be included over the 04-06 R1? The 04-06 was more grounding braking in that it was a lot of firsts for Yamaha (undertail pipes, true FI, ram air, return to SBK, etc.). For example the choice of the Yamaha R1s included. Bikes PT2: To each his own but yes the omissions have always been interesting.While removing standard bikes to sale them back Any previous Ride game dlc should be standard in the current, Milestone doesn't believe in this so they'll keep selling the same DLC over and over. ![]() They remove content from previous versions to sell it back as DLC. Bikes: This is common Milestone policy.I would hold off on buying this for quite some time and just pick up the Gold Edition if Ride 3 which is like $15 right now until they can rework and revise some of these systems. Sure the game looks pretty, and the physics have improved although every bike still insists on under steering, but I think the overall experience has taken a step back from Ride 3. To sum it up: Less bikes, ridiculous events that gate most of the content, progression is now a grind, AI are awful. Now there’s only a handful of series that’ll award bikes for 100% completion and once again they’re gated behind the ones with these ridiculous Time Attack and Track day events. If you win every event in that series you were gifted a bike which could save you some money if it was one you planned on competing with. The progression in Ride 3 felt good, I could complete a series with one bike and have earned enough credits to purchase and upgrade another bike to compete in a different series if needed. The prices of bikes have also increased ten fold while the amount of credits you’re given for winning has been decreased. It would seem as though Milestone has jacked the aggression slider up to 1000% with no way of adjusting it. They will dive bomb you into corners or run into the back of you and punt you off the track. They race as though you’re not even there. I’m here to tell you that they haven’t at all. Also, there’s no rewind feature during these, so if you’re struggling and decide to let up the pace a bit for a cleaner time, we’ll congratulations you’re time is now too slow.ĪI: Milestone have been patting themselves on the back for this one, claiming the AI has improved immensely. The time attack events will immediately boot you and force a restart if you so much as put a single pixel of a single wheel into the grass and in some cases even a curb, regardless of whether or not it could be classified as an advantage, and it’s most often not. To lock the majority of the career behind these is utterly foolish. License Tests: These have got to be the single most frustrating events I’ve ever come across in a game. Don’t worry though, Milestone will sell you back the bikes you’ve already paid for in their previous versions again in the form of paid dlc. Of the 180 (I think?) bikes are in the game, almost half are just Racing or Endurance Modified versions of their standard counterparts. I’m about 10 hours in right now and can honestly say ride 3 is a better and more complete game for these reasons:īike selection: The amount of bikes they’ve omitted that were in previous versions is ridiculous. Unfortunately I bought into the hype that was their video series on YouTube that made it seem as though Ride 4 had had made leaps and bounds over its predecessor and subsequently bought the $80 special edition.
