![]() Personally there are in fact enough cars and tracks, including variations of each track, to satisfy me. The only upside is that your teammate helps you earn money but money means nothing in the game at all as there are no repair or maintenance costs and the cost of buying cars rapidly becomes irrelevant. Only personal victories count towards progress so hiring a good teammate actually means stronger competition for yourself. The only team building feature is that you can hire a driver as a teammate and I have no idea what is even the point of that. Win enough of these showdowns and you qualify for the championships which lead to the end of the game. It’s just a set of preset races across the various classes of cars culminating in a showdown event. The single-player career mode is weak in that it doesn’t feel much like the career of a real driver at all. Though this isn’t a simulation, the physics model is still rigorous enough to reward good driving and seeing the racing line like this was a great help in properly learning circuit racing this time around and I had a good time experiencing all of the different cars. I’m sure the feature was present in previous games but I haven’t paid much attention before I only started taking this more seriously now that I have a racing wheel. This last feature was highly useful to me as it also shows when the car is moving too fast for that corner and lets you know how much to brake in order to navigate that turn safely. This meant that the AI wasn’t too difficult, some assists are on and most interestingly the optimal racing line is displayed on corners. ![]() I chose to play this at normal difficulty as I didn’t want to spend too much time fully mastering it. You only need to go into the tuning screen to see how few options there are and as other players have pointed out, you’ll only ever need one setup as it works perfectly for every car in the game. However this is also the first time I have played a Grid game with my racing wheel and in fact only the second game I’ve played with the wheel at all.ĭespite being a soft reboot, this game doesn’t pretend to be a realistic simulation. ![]() I’ve played many of Grid series of games over the years but I don’t have the kind of passion I have for rally games when it comes to circuit racing. As with films, we’re at the point where we need to add the year of release to video games to disambiguate between games with the same title. ![]()
