The Crew 2
SCORE: 81
I despised the first Crew video game. I won't lie. I won't sugar coat
it. The Crew was a horrible game on so many levels. Ubisoft obviously
listens because they made The Crew 2 way better. I am not just talking
about racing boats, bikes, and planes. I am talking about toning down
the bad content. The Crew 2 is about the joy of racing, and being the
best there is at it.
Families may wonder why The Crew 2 has the thirteen and older only
rating on it. The reason is the bad language. There are nasty, hate
filled songs in The Crew 2, and there are characters who spout off bad
language. The volume of the music can be turned down to nothing. Which
is what I did. The cut scenes can be skipped in The Crew 2. That will
help avoid the bad language. I really wish the bad language had been
left at the door.
I love all the different kinds of racing in The Crew 2. We can go
off-road, street race, drift, and more. The controls of the planes felt
a little weird to me. Every vehicle in The Crew 2 builds a boost. These
are used up quickly, and they charge pretty quick too. Boosting is how I
won certain races in The Crew 2. I did not find a super easy mode in The
Crew 2. I think the game may try and figure out where you are and
compensate accordingly.
The loading can take some time in The Crew 2. The map in The Crew 2 is
absolutely huge. The Crew 2 is not an accurate scale of the United
States of America. There are plenty of well known cities and locations
in The Crew 2. Players can buy new vehicles with their winnings from
races, drive around the game, modify their vehicles, race, and more. The
Crew 2 is definitely worth fifty dollars in my opinion.
For some strange reason The Crew 2 must always be online. I don't get
that. An Ubisoft account is required to play The Crew 2. They are easy
to set up. That was more of a nuisance than anything else. The Crew 2
looks good, and has us build social media followers by racing. Each time
you level up you will be able to access even more races. I am very
thankful Ubisoft sent Family Friendly Gaming a retail copy of The Crew
2. Check out the Unboxing video
here. Should we do a video game play series of The Crew 2?
