Fool me once.
In the Crew 2 showcase, Fergus himself just confirmed Offline Mode for The Crew 2 and The Crew Motorfest, https://youtu.be/Nij-T01zQzk
Confirmed =/= released
Seen as they are adding a proper offline option, does anyone know if I can launch this straight from steam or do I need another shitty launcher with another account?
edit never mind it says requires 3rd party account, in which case even for such a price you can get fucked
Hey I’m moving to PC, given the state of consoles, can one take to the high seas and launch those games through Steam? I already own GTA V like 3 times now and Im not buying it again.
If so is that an alternative to third party launchers in this case?
As the other commenter mentioned you can add games to steam as a non steam game to launch it via that. With pirated games I’m more than happy to launch from an icon though, it isn’t the actual method of launching that bothers me as much as it does making different bs accounts from these shitty companies.
Rockstar forces its own launcher if you want a legit copy but I’m guessing a pirate version will circumvent this.
You can add non-steam games to steam if thats what you mean. Theres a launcher called hydra which does, things. Playnite is a launcher I use that I plug all my other accounts in to and launch all games thru that. There are also ways to unlock dlc and stuff but that will require a little bit of research. Havent sailed the seas for games in a while.
TLDR; Yes you can add otherwise aquired games to steam. For the most part
Not working under Linux. So it’s not even worth $1. https://www.protondb.com/app/646910
Just checked it out on steam and it seems that it’s micro transactions focuse. If it just was cosmetics it would have been ok, but since you can purchase vehicles it sounds like it’s leaning towards “get the upper hand by paying money”.
Anyone who have played the game that can tell if there’s better cars to buy for real money than you can “earn” ingame?
I’ve finished all missions.
Honestly? It’s fine. The game is worse than the crew 1 (the map is considerably smaller despite both depicting the US, and the upgrade system feels worthless), but I’ve never felt the need to pay to get anything, and beyond 1 pop up on login, I’ve never even looked or been made to look at the store. If you’re after top performance in online races then probably most people in the top of the rankings paid to be there, but imo the crew 2 is simply not a good multiplayer competition game. For solo or coop, you’ll outclass the bots most of the time, the challenge is against yourself.
so how is the coop in this game? Racing as a team? How does it work? My friendgroup is VERY coop focused and 1€ is peanuts.
It’s not incredible. The crew 2 is overall a very okay game that didn’t need to exist, they could have easily remastered the crew 1 and make a better game. The coop is basically you get to play through any race including most story related ones with members of your party and if someone from your party wins you all get the progression. This means nothing as progressing is generally quite easy since the bots usually have way worse cars than you because getting parts upgrades is easy. Also the story isn’t anything to write home about, it’s the now classic “influencer drives car good”, unlike the crew 1 which at least tried.
so, what I’m hearing is: for the price of 1€ per head, makes an okay timewaster for friday night beer-fueled gaming for 40-something coop-folk.
Yeah that’s about right
1 Dollar is too much for requiring a third party launcher
Does this game work on Proton?
No official statement of SteamOS support. SO I have doubts at first. Let me check protondb… Uh… The answer is NO… Not worth $1. https://www.protondb.com/app/646910
How is the game? I don’t play a lot of racing games but that’s a deal and a half
Nah just dont. Get ACC or something instead.
Yeah nope. I won’t touch Ubisoft anymore after they removed my license from The Crew after I reported them to the french consumer protection regarding stopkillinggames
