WRC Generations
SCORE: 68
My experience with rally racing video games and the WRC franchise in
particular is some are hits and some are misses. WRC Generations is a
bit fat miss. I found myself extremely disappointed in WRC Generations
when I live streamed it on our YouTube channel. That live stream is
being converted into a video for our video sites. One of the ways I
gauge a video game is how approachable is it to all skillsets.
WRC Generations is not approachable by a great many gamers. We can only
bump the computer down to fifty percent. Even though I have played rally
racing video games for many years I was unable to get a win. The best I
ever did was fifth place out of six. Most of the races I placed in sixth
place. There are penalties for respawns, and crashes in WRC Generations.
With all the assists on too.
As if the penalties for having to use a respawn was not bad enough in
WRC Generations, we are also racing on narrow paths where it can be hard
to see the road. Sweden is horrible in WRC Generations. We are racing on
snow with snow shoulders, and sometimes it is also snowing. Go up on the
shoulder a bit and you flip the car or you get turned around backwards.
It is nearly impossible to turn around quickly on these very narrow
roads.
I turned the vehicle damages to visible only and still had to pay for
repairs to the car. It is like WRC Generations did not apply my
settings. WRC Generations looks okay and the navigator sounds good. I
got so confused so often thanks to the navigator. When I hear: “right
thirty, left thirty, jump, water, hard brake, right corner,” I lose
track of what is happening. There are also visuals on the screen about
what is coming up. That helped a bit more.
The more I played WRC Generations the less I liked it. There are some
cool tracks in different countries. I got stuck in a plethora of places
since sometimes the walls just hold onto the players vehicle. There are
some interesting cars in WRC Generations. There are twenty-two rallies,
one hundred and fifty stages, and seventy teams within WRC Generations.
There is even a split screen for local multiplayer.
