Was CarX Street a Disappointment?

While most racing title of recent time seems formulaic and disappointing, sometimes we'd get something interesting from the Indie and AA market and this is one of those examples, CarX Street has been developed for several years now with different ambitions and goal to its predecessor CarX Drift Racing, taking a lot of inspirations from Need for Speed, Forza Horizon and The Crew. But compared to its mobile counterpart, is it actually good?

[@D3VYN3]

Honestly, i'm kinda glad it's a grind. (Still needs slight adjustments though) Racing games these days give you everything right away. Plus random online lobby car meets/cruises are fun and pretty common since you earn decent xp/cash from "skill points" from free-drive

[@CyanRooper]

​@@D3VYN3 yeah, the fact that it's grindy is good. It's just that it's a little too grindy because its economy is still based on a free-to-play mobile game's economy.

As the mobile version player I agree with u it's fcking frustrating but I personally feel tht the racing tires is the Most insulting thing about this game, seriously the difference in performance between sport and racing tires is too jaring u think dev intentionally put it for player to buy it with real money if their too lazy

[@splatpro957]

I gotta say,my opinion on this game improved alot as i played it,and is imo worth the price (i especially enjoy max traffic and the ai difficulty reminds me of midnight club 3 a bit)

[@C1-Runner]

8:55 Nalak is on that leaderboard lol, a very competitive Forza Horizon player who forms part of the 1% club. 😅 That aside I think 20 bucks for a game like this is alright though the economy I feel needs to be tweaked a little so you can have more to play around with. I guess that and the fuel/tire wear is the only things I have nitpicks with, you already have to deal with expensive parts and cars why would they add something like this that drains even more money from you. I think it's an okay game but I'm on the spectrum of not seeing the hype with this I guess, just my opinion. Thanks for reviewing the game, you and Sharicite are always cooking with your uploads!

[@FS17TAC]

The AI definitely needs some work. It can sometimes be a challenge completing a race without being pit-maneuvered, punted into a corner, or run off the road by the other racers. Traffic needs a small rework too, like every car blasts through intersections where a normal person would at least slow down or they turn right onto a road from the passing lane. And the economy, as everyone has already mentioned, definitely needs a rework. Either beef up the race rewards or decrease the price of everything.

[@sagitta98]

I have a theory of why CarX dev uses AI voice in this game. I think it have a connection of ban of doing business with Russian companies.

For anyone looking to run this on mobile, make sure that you have fairly modern flagship. My Pixel 6A is on the struggle bus at minimum settings.

[@UncleRJ]

The game is _really_ good, been playing for over 10 hours now. The graphics are _very_ beautiful and the map is _huge_ and diverse. The customization and diversity of cars are also big. It is a fun game to play. But it has _many_ issues. Currently the game is _very_ buggy and has tons of issues with the current biggest issue where you are stuck in map and can't do anything else. The handling is wonky and takes time to get used to. It is very arcadey yet you have a _huge_ variety of tuning to change the handling, which is quite the dissonance. The game isn't "a bit" too grindy. It is *_VERY_* grindy, _especially_ the premium currency. It is too expensive. While I enjoy the game so far, the bugs and the grinds are some HUGE minus points. My biggest *_HATE_* of this game is that you *_MUST_* be connected to WIFI to play it... but rumors have it that a future update will allow you to play without WIFI.

I find the part where the fule and the tire are consumable while the boost is rechargeable a bit odd. Like having them as consumables in my opinion makes it more of a strategic and economic decision and fits into other mechanics better.

[@PhoenixTwoFiftySix]

I think it's mostly just cause that's how they've done it since they introduced tire wear. That, or if we had to pay for it to refill, the game would have extreme repercussions. Think about it, Nitrous is a necessary thing when you're racing in this game (Traffic, AI, Blind corners, hell, honest mistakes), so if you had to pay for it, it'd have to be adjusted to be more like fuel in terms of its rate of consumption. And *that* would necessitate a new balancing for most of the races in general.

[@davidaugustofc2574]

​@@PhoenixTwoFiftySix nitrous in racing games has always been a one time purchase, when we purchase the upgrade. Doing it otherwise it's not for better immersion, just creates an inconvenience

[@Daveforever]

[@CyanRooper]

I think overall its a good game for the money. I get the feeling that the map was partly inspired by San Fransokyo from Big Hero 6. IMO instead of adding collectibles like neon flamingos for the player to find they should instead have crates of money for the players to find out in the map to help make the game a little less grindy. I actually like the fact that its grindy and doesn't shower the player with cars but unfortunately the in-game economy is still based on a free-to-play mobile game's economy so it needs a little work. Instead of using AI art and voices they should have just hired an actual artist to make comic book style cutscenes similar to how a game like JDM: Rise of the Scorpion uses manga style comic book cutscenes to tell the story. The car sounds also need some work. And I think that CarX Drift had more cars than this game so I find it odd how not all of those cars made it to this game like the FC RX7 for example. None of the cars are licensed so it's not like there's a licensing issue preventing them from adding all the cars from their previous games.

The mobile version of car x street I urge player to never and I mean never look at its direction. People think the monetization on PC is bad, oh boy wait till u see mobile. For me to buy a C2 car a racing turbo its gonna take not 10 not 20 not 30 but nearly 60 races with a c6 car if I get 3 place or higher. This is with a c6 car. If you starting new the chances are ur only getting 7th or 6th place in time trails which means your earning 300-500 bucks and the upgrade cost 127,000 so it will take u nearly 200+ races to get that upgrade. Car x technology should be shamed every day for such practices and noticed how I said racing turbo. Elite and ultimate cost over 120 gold which u can only get 1 per elite races with about a 2 hour wait time for low tier elite races or upto 6 hours for the high tier elite race yeah as far as I'm concerned most upgrades only go to racing which means my car will never be fast. Hack over half the performance is locked away on upgrades that cost 15 bucks a pop. This is why there are so many mobile hacker and for once I'm thankful they are cause this company dumped on us so I'm glad other are making their lives harder for wasting ours

[@DimstTalon]

honestly i see the racing AI as a true simulation of what its like to race against real people. No lane awareness. little car control. HUGE corrections across an entire road (just to put you into a tree and dead stop you) Also, I feel like the traffic settings are unique, and hardset, for each race. I play with traffic at maximum setting. The chaos is... palpable. Although rest assured, the traffic density on the highway in freeroam and in a race is VASTLY different. So even setting traffic to 0, i imagine would still include traffic in nearly every race. I really feel like the cars are placed in a very specific pattern and are to be considered as shortcuts. Splitting the gap between the wall and that ONE FUCKING CAR THAT IS ALWAYS TAKING THAT BLIND CORNER EVERY DAMN LAP... always gives me a decent way to gap second or catch up to first.

Map is amazing, i've never played on a map like this. It has practically evertything you could ask for. Car models are great, the graphics are pretty good aswell. Physics are decent, cars get better with tuning but that has issues, drifting feels very nice and smooth imo. Carlist and customization is very solid and has the cars you expect and want, could use some more cars though. Economy is horrible, grinding and working to build your car is great, but you can feel how much of an afterthought it is on this game. I rarely even tune my cars because even that costs money after you've bought the parts needed, which also stops you in a way from really experiencing and playing around with the physics. The game simply not well done in terms of the economy, and alot of people who say this do want to work for their cars like it past games that modern games doesnt pull off as well. Story pretty much doesnt exist, you have the small talk at the start to set you up in the game and then it's gone, never to be found again. You get no context or info about every club you go up against so it never feels worth it or special to race against them. The races you can tell are still from a mobile game given how short some races can be, and the imo kinda weird points system the drift events have. Overall a solid 6/10 for me. Good game that could easily be a soild 7/10 if the economy wasnt as bad as it is.

I love the game, been at it for a few hours now, this is what i would consider NFS UNDERGROUND/HEAT Hybrid. This game brings me back straight nostalgia to when i used to switch on my PS2 at the weekends after school, whack on Linkin Park, race and modify my car. Love the map, love that arcade style handling mechanics, love the cheesy "ride and beat the best to get to the top" clichè story line. Love the in depth modifications you can do to your cars, tune it however you want to...for a sprinter, a dragger, for style or for drifting. With all those things said, the game also needs work and improvements. The economy needs reworking, i wouldn't put too much emphasis XP LEVEL gained but on the CASH income. You grind so much, that you want to whack on a body kit? Well...gotta think about it wisely or you'll be skint. Some of the prices are just ridiculous, so more ways to grind for cash would be welcome. Perhaps have the ability have passive income with some added content like...being able to set up races or something like that. Ai needs reworking, and voices need to be reworked. Would be awesome to have COPS to add a little bit of extra depth to the game also. MODS would also be welcome to expand our experience. Thats my 2 cents anyway.

This biggest need is to fix the economy. You can't just move a microtransaction model into a non-microtransaction model. Other than that, I have faith in the devs to make the game right from past history with CarsX Online. The racing AI is annoying as they can barely touch you and send you flying or spinning and they bounce off you like you never touched them. They do also get affected by the traffic or wreck themselves into certain spots in races, which is funny. Cars being upgraded do matter and make them feel a lot better when driving. I have put in a lot of time and have enjoyed the game outside of the economy issue. I wish it had more of an actual story or why you are racing the other clubs. The unlimited boost is also a big issue and needs to be fixed in online races, especially for the leaderboards.

art of rally keeps on giving, ost is timeless.

Just played for my own review. The game is awesome, Cool physics, nice night graphics, great inside view, some great rare cars. City full of traffic. It’s better than NFS Heat etc. The bad thing is SSD MANDATORY and huge overprice for Russia, it should be 1/4 if that price and not higher than TDUSC.

if you bought the deluxe edition on release (was only an extra 2 or 3 dollars) you get immediate access to a c3 convertible supra, allowing you to get a little money boost or you could want and upgrade it to higher c class for more money. Also highway runs with your fastest car will solve the leveling issue lol, spent probably 2-3hrs running back and forth and got to level 30

got this the day it came out loved it but then it started to lag the ai was so hard to beat, was like facing forza drivers, traffic kept crashing into you and the eco system was such a grind where you was loosing money refueling after each time you retry. i do like the deliveries as its a break and stops the possible of soft locking yourself.

[@timtams4547]

I love this game but i can't play it in the state that it's in ai in the club races are like pro supercar drivers and getting mental frame drops and i have a very powerful system im going back to car x and playing more streets when it's fully fixed and im not shit talking the game 😊

[@islammedheryamz8546]

Better value than the new TDUSC

[@uthopia27]

Out of topic but anyone who works in city building ( is tht wht its called ? ) how realistic the city in this game is ? Is it possible in real life ?

[@ZeeSixReemFRFR_]

this game is perfect and addictive!

[@Tanvaras]

Shame the PVP time trials have become a top tier of people running a certain mod with unlimited nos etc. Its a decent game for the price point. But due to the huge mobile grind mechanics, most people are using a so called mod to give money, coins and as previously said, unlimited nos.

[@blackavant9405]

Got a question, are the club races glitched or something? I did the first one and now i am waiting for the timer of the elite race to end so i can do it, but seems like i can't join any other club races until i finish the first one? I thought it was a car requirement but no. I can't do the Union Underground club races.

[@LeWeedMonke]

For anybody wondering if it’s worth it. Yes it is. Literally feels like og nfs and honestly gets me excited to see if they become the new nfs with how many elements reflect underground 1 and 2

[@jtvercetti4076]

Its 20$ and has more customization and cars than any other game out right now yeah the AI sucks yeah the grinding kind of sucks but for $20 I think it’s awesome

[@captaingoogle6574]

The game is actually good. It has its issues. But for $20 it's better than nfs unbound which is quite the achievement

[@neuntausendlux]

some turbofan wheels are especially made for matching liveries. whoops, there is no livery editor in your game.

[@cliffhogue3076]

big story short games shaite for its price its shaite way to much grinding way to much chaos of ai and the timer on elite races pure shaite

[@Donni_10]

The one thing a really like is the griding ,for me its much better than something like forza that you get all the cars and the money to tune fast af.

[@ExhumedToConsume]

Not sure why they didn't make an open world game that felt and played like Drift but okay....

[@ZinhoMegaman]

This game would be great on the Nintendo Switch as there is no competitor on the system.

[@Angelbomb-73]

The game looks cool, albeit its flaws. Imo looks better than Unbound on release

[@rockzs74r]

For 20 dollar game it is not. But for how much the fans and the early reviews hyping it. Like it's Better than any newer NFS. No it's definitely not stop glazing it. And to be fair no one bought Unbound for 70 dollar either but youtuber wanted to review it. Majority of Unbound player come from the people buying it during summer sales. They went as low as 10 dollar at some point ( I bought it when it was 20 dollar) The disappointment from normal people believing the shit their mobile fans hyping it up only to get a ported mobile game My biggest complain is the economy. The prize is to low. You could easily get 30K worth of prize money in one race in NFS heat and unbound

[@skizecraft]

You just know they're gonna add microtransactions

[@beni_Silva]

This game is trash, it's a concord on a diferent game genre

[@alimaroof2111]

The physics of car is 🤮🤮🤮🤮. I refund this game in steam

[@sirmez9597]

the ultimate breakdown if you ask me, W dove yet again

[@RomnysGonzalez]

*G U D*

[@Turner2211]

The freedrift events are one of the dumbest things I’ve seen in a car/drift game. 🤦‍♂️

[@Bigdoghirohito]

It’s ok, just waiting on mods and more cars
