The Crew: Wild Run Edition

Hey guys, I just bought The Crew: Wild Run. Anything to expect from this game? I bought it for $29.99 at GameStop.
 
Got a platinum in the summit without doing the Crew Speedtrap event, it took some doing but at least it's attainable without being in a crew. Can't wait to start modding this car once they add the specs (lol)

I was comfortably in the platinum level without that one too, but decided to do it yesterday before the deadline just to further secure it. Got paired off with randoms, and the whole Find A Crew feature is cumbersome at best. Looks like I won't bother again!

This is why I only do Crew Speedtrap events with at least one person I know (@Elitekilla29 and @PsuPepperoni come to mind), and why I haven't used the find-a-crew feature in 7 months.

This game is a CARPG, leveling your stuff makes the handling a lot better (which is crap in the very beginning).

Level up your driving based Perks at your headquarters often, they help increase the performance and handling of your vehicles by increasing your driver skill. A new contact for perks will be added with each territory you unlock.

Find the Satellites in each area to unlock more skills events which you will use to level up your vehicles.
 
For those on wanting speed results for the MX5 here they are, Level 50 Plat, speed bonus.

Honestly, it's one of the worst games I've ever purchased. Poor graphics, poor gameplay, poor handling, not fun.
Just my opinion though, as I see others having tons of fun with it :P

Should of waited a bit.
Could of had The Crew Complete Edition on the PS Store for $29.99.
 
Anyone else having this issue with the MX-5? I go over a small bump and the car instantly crashes out. (i.e The car gets a small bit of air time, and when it lands, it instantly crashes out.) It's not even a huge air time. It's about 0.5 secs of air time, car lands on its wheels, and then it crashes for no apparent reason. It happened in FullStock and Perf. Not sure about Street.


Or it may be Ivory Tower stepping up their realism game :lol:

Do you think it is a good competitor against the Skyline? (Street)
 
Just tested the MX-5 against a skyline in a street PVP race. I was struggling to keep up with him; the skyline just eats the corners (AWD), while I struggle behind. I finished about 1 to 2 seconds behind. Pretty bad imo if it was like a 3 minute race. However, my MX-5 was only level 1286 and his was 1299. I doubt a difference of 13 in car level is what made me lose. It might be my bad driving...

Event was "Down the Drain." It was only one attempt, so I'm not considering this info that useful. (You know, you have to experiment more than once to make sure it's true.)

EDIT: Did another run recently. Miata vs 5 R34s and a Mini cooper. Most of the R34s were in sport mode (Like I am.) It was like 6 people in Platinum tier 1 vs a person in Silver tier 2 (me).

It was a bit hectic because it was a collision race (You know how those turn out...) I got shunted along but managed to get 3rd place in a field of level 1299 skylines. The guy who finished in second slipstreamed me in the last straight...

(BTW, the mini cooper finished in last.)

I didn't know the "Complete" Crew was available, but I checked everywhere at GameStop, and I couldn't find it except Wild Run. I may enjoy it, who knows.
 
I'm having a weird issue, maybe someone can help:

Trying to do the events in the current qualifier. It's forcing me into provided vehicles for Monster Arena, Drift Trial, Stunt Race, and Drag Trial. Is this normal?

Does your car fit the restrictions? (Pic is an example)

That's what I would think, Is if you don't have the qualifying car you have to "borrow" them.
However there have been some problems where even if you do have the car everyone gets the same car.

I've got cars for all of them. I've even tried entering the summit in my Monster Abarth and it still insists on lending me a car. Hugely frustrating, since it neuters my chances in most events.

Well even if it's a qualifier shouldn't matter what medal you get (It's the monthly) one you should be more worried if they ended up doing something like that.

I can't confirm on my end since well I haven't played since well July 31st, since I have been playing BL TPS and in a few days NMS.

Is there any news on a "The Crew 2" or will The Crew be supported for the time to come?

Well the Crew is going to be continued through the rest of this year, There are already updates lined up for that. No news on Crew 2 or any expansion of the current one.
Can refer back to Future Updates and that will tell you about what is to come.
 
Have you all tried the trick for the circuit spec time trial Summit event? I was able to get into the top 100 worldwide with a fairly sloppy lap.

Here is a video showing how it's done.
 
I've read the last few pages but i haven't got a clue what you guys are talking about. I have just bought my starter car and since I am more of a "lone wolf" player I assume I can complète the story on my own?

From what I played I enjoyed it. Like the story so far and the main character. It's just a bit unclear how all works , how I can get to the map and how I properly build a car. Time will unravel those misteries.

I would like to change my starter car asap. Can someone tell me the do and donts when changing a car?

I recently started playing, once you get to New York to Level 20 "Perf Spec" will go to do PvP lobbies and other multiplayer things. I use a Performance Spec R34 for most of what I do with the Crew Points, and am currently saving for a FD3S.

It will be a long grind, I feel it. If anybody has any suggestions at my level about Crew Bucks and how to earn them easily will do just great.

You can complete the story missions by yourself but there are some that might take a few tries to complete and those are close to the end of the game. At the beginning your car will be horrible but when you complete more skills and mission your car greatly improves. If your playing on the PS4, the button to access the map is the select pad but I'm not sure on the Xbox. If your wanting a new car for dirt spec I would either go for the Ford Focus ST or the R34.

It will be a long grind, I feel it. If anybody has any suggestions at my level about Crew Bucks and how to earn them easily will do just great.

Your best bet about earning money is from PvP, Faction Missions, and Summit Events.
 
Story is quickly turning into a Soap. Very cheesy but I like it. Only thing that annoys me is all those pop-up messages all the time. Also you can't go into photomode when doing a mission :odd:

I like the different challenges and I unlocked NY. Need to battle my first boss. It's fun so far and the scenery can be bloody aweful up to bloody amazing :bowdown:

Want to unlock the map and than starting to do photoshoots. So many great locations :D

So it's some speculation that the crew will be at gamescom. Somebody on the crew forum's posted a link to a ign article that i guess showed a list of games that's gonna be at that event. And it said "the crew expansion". I hope this is true. Maybe show the expansion or whatever off at gamescom and then release it around October or November i guess. Anyway let the speculation begin:D More customization options please. Like the option to paint your rims.

Nice!

Thursday 10.40: Crew expansion

I'm still going with what I said a few pages back, the expansion will be story-driven and feature a new region (possibly Mexico) that the story events take place in. New vehicles (Sand Rail perhaps?) will be included, and more customization options overall.
