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?

so this game is a good game. IF - You ignore the obvious ai generated stuff - you don't mind grinding for hours - have few friends to play with

[@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.

[@uthopia27]

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

[@Johnnyynf]

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

[@PhoenixTwoFiftySix]

1) CarX Drift sold insane numbers and the studio isnt that “small”, they might be even bigger than criterion lol (in terms of the budget and ppl) 2) You can pickup unbound for 7 bucks on sale, or any other nfs that’s still being sold. I love the physics and the map in CarX street but i cant call it a good game. It feels like a bunch of assets dumped together, it tries to hide obv copying by saying “its’a tribute”. The soundtrack is… weird, there is no stylistic direction this ost tries to paint and the “sigma phonk” shit just pisses me off when i hear it. I WANT to like this game, because i enjoy it sometimes, but i can’t. And the ai voice stuff is just horrendous

[@csabitapaszto]

@@laurant420 unbound is a 2 years old game now, obviously it's discontinued, I bought Heat for £2.99 2 years ago.

[@SicSemperBeats]

One thing I noticed is that the tachometers don't make a ton of sense for sports cars. Most cars' redline are at 5500-6500 like a bunch of diesels or work trucks. If you switch to the interior camera, its a completely different redline on some cars and the rev counter will be way off. Really weird, notice how some of the cars don't even sound like they're fully revving before you modify the camshaft. Really weird oversight for a game with so much attention to detail lol

[@CyanRooper]

To be fair, JDM: Rise of the Scorpion also borrows heavily from NFS Heat. Project Cars 3 borrowed its UI from the Forza Horizon series. Hell, the UI in NFS Heat and NFS Unbound also looks like it was inspired by Forza Horizon's UI.

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.

[@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.

[@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.

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.

[@Dany126PL]

So... They took mobile game rescale it and just removed microtransaction without changes to economy? Good job, I bet these 10 delays was worth it.

[@AshenRJ]

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.

[@JulmustensV8]

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.

[@K3ntucky123]

Game is fine, beside the grinding part. It still manageable atleast, as long you dont waste anything from customization and upgrades.

[@Joshieboy42066]

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.

[@TG-ct2uw]

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.

[@Fewerlious]

Leaderboard races are done for (at least on mobile), because everyone uses the ‘meta’. Upgrading a L08 by an absurd amount, it's initial low weight small size just completely dominates above any other car (upto Class 4).

[@AdamsApples]

Really good review, thanks Dove!

[@CrazyDoug17]

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.

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

Why did the evo look so bad?

[@neuntausendlux]

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

[@sekutofu6471]

The game is good, but the low payouts, street coins and 1hr cooldowns for elite races makes it unplayable.

[@Unchainedful]

Just mod your game to unlock everthing.

[@sekutofu6471]

@@Unchainedful if I want to mod my game and unlock everything, I would have played fhz 5 where everything is handed out to you at the beginning of the game; I want to progress in the game and do races, I don't want to do donuts for 1hr to lvl up by 5 lvls or spend 6 hours racing just to earn 20 street coins, I want a damn functioning game with a function progressions system.

[@sirmez9597]

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

[@berkkarsi]

*Yes, it was.*

[@OuterHeaven210]

Fun game. Easily the best mobile racing game. Great customization system and great tuning system. I highly recommend to anyone who finds themselves with spots of downtime throughout the day

[@SpectBluewolf]

There's a police station in game, tho it never get used since they don't want to get sue by ea for making a cheap copy of nfs (nfs at home)

[@Fewerlious]

Funny thing, it's a possible location for box deliveries! That's how I initially discovered it.

[@ExhumedToConsume]

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

[@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.

[@centje6750]

Litterally all they had to do was add an open world into carx drift racing lol but noo they hd to turn it into a generic arcade racing game with little drifting focuss, its jut all racing and the racing is abs9lut3ly horrible because th3 ai is horrible

[@sylvester2898]

Tried the game with a Logitech wheel and it’s awful… at many moments the ffb just cuts out so when drifting the wheel would just have no resistance making it super hard not to over correct since I have no feedback

[@captaingoogle6574]

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

[@SovietPakachu]

Only bad thing: you have to grind Thats bad? For me its the best i remember old nfs start with bullshit and end with ur dream car

[@skizecraft]

You just know they're gonna add microtransactions

[@goodie2shoes874]

I hope this eventually comes to console

[@lorwdnic]

So the time skip is not present on this game from the phone game???? Shocker!!!

[@Andretti420]

I'm trying to enjoy this game, but still nothing

[@ZeeSixReemFRFR_]

this game is perfect and addictive!

[@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

[@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 ?

[@avellinesevolante]

Can you sell the cars if you don't need them?

[@Sharicite]

you can

[@assassinxsteveo]

I love this game!! Sure. It needs a bit of work.. but it’s still a lot of fun.. pretty sure it will last longer than Concord…😂

[@Angelbomb-73]

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

[@KGEE-WeTheGees]

On launch? No… but I think it’ll get there..

[@bad_emil8945]

Yes, video finished

[@servicerifle16]

Isn't this supposed to be coming to consoles eventually?

[@-thebatman-]

Supposedly

[@twitch8763]

These now a days games make y'all too lazy to grind a game to get what you want

[@PublicParkingEntertainment]

This might be a long read for some but... I think what everyone (especially the younger generation of car gamers) fail to realize what matters is the "replayability" of car games an why some excel while others fail. No1 and I repeat no1 plays a car game for the story since most of the time it's rinse and repeat. (You drive there, find said antagonist that pushes the story forward which you guessed it, includes more driving and racing) once you beat the story 9 out of 10 you won't redo the story over again. All thats left is the open world and having to buy/customize all the cars. Once you've exhausted all the cars and found your favs, all thats really left is to enjoy/cruise with friends. THIS is the part that alot of tripleA car games fail at or they will have 1 thing but not the other. I'm looking at forza especially. Open world, private lobbys, LACKLUSTER customization. Meanwhile NFS has open world, "decent# customization, NO PRIVATE LOBBYS, or only 4player party's. Car X Street answers all of these issues albeit with a few mishaps (economy being one). When it's all said an done you get a massive open world with tunnels, mountains, city alleyways, parking garages, exceptional tuning from the ground up for drift, drag, track focus, etc and to top it off 16 player private lobbys to cruise, make vids, take photos an do actual dope shit. If you're upset that they didn't use real voice actors to push a "story" forward why are you really playing the game? It's clearly focused around car enthusiasts hence why they didn't get licensed cars (if they did theyre would be a lot less cars and hardly any of the old school jdm/edm cars we've all enjoyed). People complaining about traffic and ai racers almost as if they want them to just hand the win or they forget your illegally street racing. This would happen irl let's keep it 💯. Now the economy is understandable although I prefer to grind and earn versus receiving 50wheel spins for drifting a corner or losing a race. That being said I believe this to be one of the best street racing games since midnight club LA (2008) that caters to arcade/Sim fans alike. Yes they need to iron some stuff out but it hasn't been a month yet. Let them do what they got too and watch how Forza/NFS (the 2 dominate car racing franchise. Wont include Assetto Corsa since its only dope with mods on PC) change there tone. And to add insult to injury they made the game affordable for everyone. $20. TripleA games could never

[@Helloguy3264]

this game is so good now!

[@trogers2120]

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

[@brenoldt]

Was CarX Street a Disappointment? Lets find out!

[@PhoenixTwoFiftySix]

Now I don't blame CarX Street for accidentally making a mobile game's economy without microtransactions Because that's what they promised us to be fair.

[@manparido]

Biggest flop I've seen as a car game. Boring? Boring is short. Full of cheaters, absolutely ded. You grind for a car then what? Nothing lol, you aren't using it for nun. Wtf is this!

[@Bigdoghirohito]

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

[@420cm]

5/10, the only i like from this game is the map and how dense the traffic, AI is still sucks

[@davidlundmark9359]

5:36 "apartments" british accent 5:41 "apartments" american accent why?

[@mendyshelios0451]

I mean... it sounds good. Now i need to upgrade pc, cause my cpu aint enough.

[@kevinX47]

Man bring back midnight club and split/second

[@jozsef98]

Was, is, and will be

[@Xemina]

the 572th had me like that aint even a number it should be 572nd like wtf?! XDDDD

[@muhng-kee989]

this is a far from perfect but amazing game. yes the economy is fucked up, just cheat. if you just wanna build cars with friends and tandem and cruise and shit its an amazing game. also keep in mind this is definitely not a finished version of the game it’s obvious.
