The Crew 2 Official Game Discussion Thread

What does create livery mean? Will we be able to have freedom in that area?

 

[awcar28]

What about the Alfa Giulia quadrifoglio ?
I didn't see this car at all
Im i wright ?

 

[CSMDuty11]

That's an interesting point actually, considering it was listed on IGCD along with other cars that are, infact, in the game.

 

[Wolfe]

Oh...so I'll have to make an Ubisoft account and jump through hoops if I want the RX-7, S30 Z, BMW M2, or 124 Spider. Can't decide if they're quite worth the bother.

There are enough alternatives; pretty good car roster this time around. 👍 No more BRZ though, for sure?

Somebody said not to trust IGCD with games that are releasing, and I am inclined to agree. Often times they pluck pictures from the web, and cannot be verified.

That might be true, but the Giulia screenshot lines up with lots of other cars that happen to be in the game and the video, such as the Porsche 964, Megane, or the Abarth 124, all three of which happened to appear in the carlist video linked in this thread.
The Giulia however, despite being a model there and as well as listed on InCloud's spreadsheet with a price of around 356k credits, was nowhere to be found in the video.

That's because the video skipped a few manufacturers and blazed through a few others, with Alfa being one of those belonging to the latter. The logo was in the video, I'm fairly certain that the Giulia is in the game, alongside the Megane RS (It was in the video as well, but they blew through it) and the 964 (it has the Season Pass addition on the car select screen in the video) so no need to worry.

Yes

What about the Alfa Giulia quadrifoglio

Spoiler: inside

Season pass content, after some time will be available for СС and B. There are 3 exclusives for Season pass and bunch of timed exclusives that you can see in my spreadsheet with price tags, but cant see in video. Same with Pre-order and Deluxe packs, vehicles are timed exclusives.

That was implemented in last test phase and my main spreadsheet isnt updated properly. Will try to update it before beta, maybe even add some event data(its gathered) to it.

 

[Wolfe]

Meh. Microsoft is dead to me and therefore so is the Forza Horizon series so I might as well play along with the next best alternative. I already earned ten of the fifteen awards before signing up, netting me the M2, and Unlimited Test Drive Budget took a minute to acquire for the S30. The RX-7 is likely more of a hassle than I'm willing to put into it and without PS Plus I won't get all fifteen for the Abarth 124. Oh well.

I guess I'm all set.

 

[LOonIE]

Does anbody know, if we are going to be able to drive the bone stock / factory cars, as we did in the first game?

[dzumaalcapone]

Wanna know if T500 works with it.. Thrustmaster site doesn't list it (yet).

 

[TJ13]

It is kinda sad that police isn't in, but then the trophy list should be easier if some of the things in TC1 isn't in.

Unless it has to do fly thousand of miles in a plane or boat.

 

[FT-1]

Given how TC2 is centred around a racing festival theme much like the Horizon series, I don't see the lack of police as a big deal. I would even go as far as saying implementing police would make the game feel awkward - how would the law keep up if you suddenly transition from a car to a boat to a plane in the space of 30 seconds?

Maybe they could allow the cops to do the same?

Surely all that transitioning would be extremely taxing on base console systems? Especially on a 5-star chase.

 

[rallymorten]

..they could do what Payback did and simply have the cops not exist outside of dedicated missions/activities - where I'd imagine transforming is more limited, predictable, probably even fully scripted - they could even pull a Calling All Units 2.0 and make chases a PVP mode..

It'd be a bit sad because instantaneous freemode police escapades are best police escapades, but there are ways in which they could include them.

 

[CSMDuty11]

Oooh I think I see the clause behind the RUF inclusion.

None of the two RUFs with the RT35 seemingly outright RIP are available in Street Race spec nor Hypercar spec, yet in the specs that there are no Porsches available you can get a RUF instead, seems like a pretty peculiar clause. Especially when you notice that the CTR3 seems to be quite dominant compared to the three 911s The 3400K drift however, is about a tad bit faster than the 964 by 10 km/h

...Except Rally Raid spec for some reason, has both a 3400K and a 959 Raid terrific waste by not including the normal one by the way, probably just the one spec Porsche felt their cars had a chance against a RUF.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Wait, there's no cops in this game? Said who? I could have sworn I saw some cops in the first trailer.
Edit: Yep, there's cops. Near the end you can see cops chasing somebody on the Golden Gate Bridge along with a police helicopter swooping in as a plane flies by.
Was this said by Ubisoft themselves, or was this just a rumor? I don't see why they would scrap something from the first game that played a crucial part in the story.
Also they could just make it where if you're in a police chase you can't switch vehicles like the first game. Plus it wouldn't surprise me if the cops only exist in California since apparently according to the coast to coast trailer that's where the street racing is taking place. Hopefully I'm wrong on that front.

 

[rallymorten]

I'm guessing all this speculation is because that's about all the mention there's been about cops and that it "wouldn't fit in", but right you are - there were indeed cops in the first trailer.

I guess that *could* technically still be a mission/activity/PVP thing, but.. it's something.

I would be okay with it being just it's own game mode as long as they don't screw it up like Payback did. Although free roam chases are always the best in my opinion, and there's surprisingly very few open world games out there this generation that have free roaming cops.

Not to be ignorant but I'm not going to believe that there's no cops in The Crew 2 until an actual member of the Ubisoft team comes out and confirms it, or we see for ourselves in the closed beta.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

I found the source of the rumor, but I refuse to post it, as it's a clickbait video simply stealing information from a reply on Reddit that had no credibility or proof.

 

[TJ13]

From the first 10 minutes of peoples first looks have said multiple times that there are no police roaming around.
Must of been removed from announcement trailer and now.
Or
It's in code and after a certain amount of time they'll release it as a standalone pack. (CAU)

 

[inCloud]

if we are going to be able to drive the bone stock / factory cars, as we did in the first game

Not like in first game. There arent stock and spec'ed cars, only spec'ed cars with NOS. Difference is that in first game after buying spec'ed car you should upgrade it from 1to299 level and in second all cars by default has some minimum performance level(10 for Wrangler and 240 for Murcielago, for example).

Said who

There wasnt in early builds. Actually things may change in beta or post release updates.

that there are no police roaming around

There were police in e3 build, Slaptrain even crash into them and nothing happens.

 

[TJ13]

Latest gameplays I've seen have none going around.
So I am guessing if there is any, it's part of the "story"

 

[inCloud]

Latest gameplays I've seen have none going around.

Cause there isnt police in latest builds. My guess is that they would add it in post release update or even addon. I can say that this isnt their number one problem, game lacking something much more important.

it's part of the "story"

no. Actually there isnt "story mode" just progression like in Forza Horizon.

 

[jake2013guy]

game lacking something much more important

What do you mean by this?

 

[inCloud]

What do you mean by this

Half of the game. Cant talk about it, just hope that they will bring it in Beta.

Basically a GT copy.
Push an unfinished game and try and make it finished with updates.
