Certainly looks fun and...different. The setting should make for some excellent roads and scenery.

Definitely keeping an eye on this, especially after spotting a white Focus RS MK1.
Overall, some rather interesting (and lovely) choice of cars as well.

I Watched some of the gameplay clips yesterday. Graphics and lighting are nice, but Framerate was a little janky. Of course they mentioned that still a lot of polishing needs to be done. Im curious to see if they can get the Unreal engine running at a 100% stable framerate.

They are supposedly using a custom version of UE5. I hope they can deliver a solid 60fps experience 🤞

What interested me are the night street race with Midnight Collective. It's seems like the races are based on fans/followers instead of positions.

Theo Martial (MC/Protagonist) were on the trending leaderboard, Despite being on 3rd place.

Anyone explaining the grappling hook yet? I think I'll just have to accept it and maybe point out to the upcoming WRC promoter how effective it could be for hairpins and future audiences if they can do some R&D.

I don't really care about the physics or grappling hook assist for hairpins, but if the main story narrative is bogged down with garbage and cringey "modern" writing and dialogue, then  that is gonna be the deal breaker on if i buy this game.
