Have to admit it was catchy though.
That's why I mentioned I wished they kept up with the times. Personally I don't play with music but in the odd time that I do want music the Spotify app takes care of that.
Just think it's resources they could save and put towards the development of the game.
I've played games where I've literally only kept a handfull of songs turned on because I can't stand the other ones. Listening to the same 5 songs on repeat for hours on end gets old real quick.
So far they've released 2 songs instead of some gameplay footage. This is suppose to be a racing game not Guitar Hero/Rock Band. I couldn't care less about the music and I know I'm not the only one that feels that way.
I've been playing MX games since 1998. I've ALWAYS cut the music off. Let's see, one company pushes music first when everyone wants to see some game play and the other releases game play plus focuses on 100% authenticity of the sport and has the official voice of Monster Energy Supercross in their game as their focal point for sound. I mean, this is a no brainer especially to someone like myself who loves commentary (or at least pre/post race commentary..something I have suggested to MVA for years) and has wanted it back in since we last had it with Art and David in EA Supercross and EA Supercross 2000.
And before someone calls me out as being a complete Milestone fanboy...which with the announcement of Monster Energy Supercross I guess I am now...let me share something with you. I've always been let down by MVA's lack of authenticity and lack of desire to replicate the sport as an official licensed series, authentically. But with that being said, I want all MX games to be good. I support all MX games. And though I don't play Encore, I have spent plenty of money on the game and supported them to the fullest financially. And I have tried quite a bit to help that particular franchise. And I don't just mean posting on forums, which hey, is VERY important.
It's funny. I've probably conversed in a hundred emails or more with one of the higher ups at Nordic since the actual week they acquired the THQ IP and MVA franchise. I actually, with the individual's permission, gave the higher up at Nordic several of the emails of the old Rainbow team so he could contact them to ask if interested in getting back together to re-start the MVA franchise. This was all, obviously, way before they got the team together. This led to that. Some, like Chris and Elliot, had other things they were committed to and thus didn't come on board. But others did.
This was days after acquiring the franchise. I reached out to him to thank him for buying MVA and asked how I could help and it went from there. I sent him pages of ideas early on as well as MX contacts to reach out to and to contact when the game was first being announced (MVA Supercross). They had the gaming contacts but didn't have the MX contacts. Vital and Racer X were first on list as well as Pulp. I had worked previously a bit in the gaming industry with Treyarch on NHL2K2 and NHL2K3 in a more specific capacity so gaming is a passion of mine and especially MX gaming.
I still speak with him quite frequently, even as recent as when All Out was announced. I have shared my concerns, my desires to get the full license, etc. He knew I wouldn't be happy with what they released with Supercross but they felt that was the way to go. And the guy is super cool and totally professional. But it just seems, as I said, that they have their own agenda.
Sure, they did do the replica track DLC which was cool. Unfortunately, it was on their worst game in years. Well, I would obviously put Reflex and Alive as being far superior games. But that was still cool they got the replicas. But not getting the SX license and saying it couldn't be done and then Milestone doing it ALL right...well, that just really makes MVA look like they didn't try very hard. Who knows. It's politics, but they had the connection with Feld but failed to make it happen, no pun intended. like I said, you never know why things do or don't happen.
Maybe All Out will be good. I think it will be an improvement but with the competition releasing a game I have been asking for for 20 years and seem to nail everything I want in a licensed game...well, let's just say I'm not really waiting for All Out nearly much anymore. I pre-ordered...I'll support but it's not the game I've been waiting for forever while the other appears to be.
Nonetheless, I wish them the best. Yeah, I'm having a heart attack over Monster Energy Supercross but that's me. That game is everything I want in a SX game and that will be MY game, for sure. Other's prefer different things so it's good to have more than one game around and glad we do have 3 MX/SX series on consoles now as well as a few for PC.
But man, it really is hard to understand their logic sometimes.

I’m NOT a fan of wasting money on a game that’s hardly playable and not as good as other options.
Do you go out and buy every brand of bike because you’re a “real” fan or do you buy one brand of bike because it’s better than the other, or because you favor it?
Your comment was ignorant, lol.
On another note I wonder if Mx Unleashed will be on the new original Xbox backwards compatible list for the One... That would be pretty cool, I enjoyed that game quite a bit back in the day!
Pit Row
you can’t compare that to the very few companies that make moto games. if you don’t support one company because you’re too picky then they are going to go away from lack of support and funding.
saying their games are hardly playable is a little much dont you think?
your comparisons are horrible.
The point I was trying to make in my first post was suggesting that If milestone makes a quality game, and MvA makes a not so quality game, MvA might be in serious trouble.
Yes, competition between the two companies would be great, would surely result in better games, but MvA can’t just keep cranking out bad games with Milestone setting the bar.
Basically MvA has to step it up, or milestone might be the only MX video game developer around anymore.
And sorry my comparisons were a little shitty, but just because I don’t want to spend my money on something I won’t use, doesn’t make me any less of a Moto “fan” than anyone else.
Bought the new MXGP, played it for about a month, and went back to MX vs ATV.
I hope I am wrong, but the physics in Milestone's new game will not be as realistic as we all want (well at least flatout911 & myself). As I mentioned in an earlier post the scrub we are all seeing in the vids is a button combo much like a freestyle trick vs a technique that would be cool if it were hard to do and require much practice lending realism to the game. The hang time still appears to be too light and floaty like the MXGP series games. With those points noted I do believe the bike looks to handle better on the ground in terms of acceleration, braking, and turning than the MXGP games. And of course the visuals are stunning. And they look to try and mimic every detail of the real riders, bikes and tracks as possible.
I am going to buy both games and hope for the best.
I played MXGP2 but haven't played MXGP3. I found that playing in 3rd person absolutely sucked as the rider looked way too goofy and the air physics were horrible but loved playing it in 1st person view. I didn't play it all the much but found that it was a little sluggish so wasn't that big of a fan of it. It seemed like it played slow.
Personally I prefer playing in 3rd person so it's crucial that things looks right for me and both of those game didn't achieve that.
I'm just curious to know why you ditched the MXGP games and went back to MX vs ATV?
I'll be buying both games since I haven't played any MX games in years and I need a good one for my MX fix.
Last thing are you on PS4, Xbox One or PC?
And Kwad Up? Fucking legit bro. So good.

Off Road Fury 4 and Reflex seems like a good mix. Hopefully we see some gameplay soon.
