Best Arcade Racer long!

For me personally, The Crew is a really good successful Arcade Racer become of his money is definitely worth and my previous season and many more hours has brought fun and will bring. Particularly noteworthy positive are the incredibly atmospheric designed and huge (without reloading) freely passable game world the United States, which many so-called "tests" the overthrow a middle while exploring this world with no loading time of the action and the possibility of really all about, along with up to 3 friends play.

My rating by category and below Rating:

Graphics: 5 - for the size of the game world and you are constantly on the go with other players is remarkable. The issue here is not more to the performance limits of the current console generation but even if certain have been possible for the PC games would now be developed at the same time for all platforms. Nett have it at least got a 60fps function and some additional details in the PC version

Gameplay: 5 - Unbelievably great tests and races as well as a change in the story missions

Control: 4 - If you can live with the fact that the control system is precisely that of an arcade racer and no race simulation as Gran Tourismo, it is well done. Only at game start (vehicle level
Story: 3 - would have the story and render sequences exciting and can be predicted less, the conversations of the characters are also rather badly advised and the setting corresponds but very the movie "The Fast and the Furious" what has been too often taken up.

Multiplayer: 4 - It's a super Coop racing game with friends, but not the racing MMO as it was a mediated in the trailers.

My Appreciation trend despite the negative examples mentioned below 5 stars as the game me in its current state makes a lot more fun than the last NFS parts and the best racing game has become in 2014 for me.

In the appendix a few more personal negative points which would have to be improved so that it could be a reference for the ultimate racing experience.

The game has in my opinion potential to be much more than it is currently. At the moment it is missing some elements or were poorly implemented:
1. Failure to provide communities Feature - How can it be that a game has been touted as what MMO Racer allows players only groups of up to 4 players and even social interaction with a larger group / community are possible.
2. The factional struggles which, although held for the predetermined 5 factions of the US is a nice feature but because the fractions are introduced without any identification options, so no reasons exist why you should feel particularly attracted a fraction, I do not care for that group, I fights and destroys much sentiment. It must be said, one should even introduce clans would Clan Rankings thousand times better than the current factional struggles.
3. The car selection to start is scarce even if intended to be supplied by DLC content packages car in my opinion, because they are not included in the normal purchase price you have to complain about the current selection, just because some cars can occupy only certain roles. Why can not such as a Golf GTI to be used only as a street car and not as a performance car?
