It's based entirely on the 2017 season. That's how Milestone always does their games and I like that because they truly replicate everything to perfection and that could not be done if done before the events. So I kinda doubt it.

However, if they think it will cause confusion...like with the absence of semis...they may just go heats and lcqs. Prob be easier than also including semis. I could see that happening. And maybe new point system as well. I kinda doubt that though.

I don't think a guy like Tomac can "refuse" to be in the game. This is a licensed game, not the weird "only name and number on the jersey"-MVA style.

Factory Kawasaki is either not included in the license for some very odd reason or it's an DLC(Monster energy pack including: MEC and Monster Energy Kawasaki).

Yeah, I think you are right on this one. Maybe it will be a DLC thing but I kinda just think it is some issue with licensing. Very strange. I mean, I wish they were in there but we're getting like WAY WAY more authenticity than has ever even been thought of before in this game so if it doesn't happen then it's ok. You would think that if anything was an issue that it would be Red Bull but, front and center in the trailer, Red Bull and Dunge were the main focal point. So go figure.
Btw, go back to MXGP3. For some reason the KXF450 is still the old one(2012-2015). Not the 2016 model.

What if Milestone can't(because of legal reasons) make the 2016-2018 bike and therefore Kawasaki doesn't want Grant and Tomac in the game on the old platform?

Just a thought.


Edit: I was wrong, i went back and looked at some of the gameplay and i saw the 2016-2018 KXF. That leaves us at the DLC theory as the most likely scenario. It would be a huge surprise if Factory Kawasaki is not included in the license(i can't see any reason why they wouldn't be included).

DLC for Team Monster Energy riders would be really stupid if you ask me. Monster Energy Pro Circuit riders are included. Both teams are Monster supported so again it would be odd for them not to be included in the game.

Who knows they might have a special role in the game as part of the career mode or something and Milestone just hasn't unveiled it yet. Doubtful but never know.

In the MXGP games the MXdN is included in it and is not a DLC so I don't think that the MEC will be a DLC. I think it'll be included in the game at launch.

It'll be weird if Tomac and Grant are not included but not really the end of the world. At least not for me since I never play with the in game riders. Pretty certain most people play as themselves.

Wait and see I guess.

I like it when they have DLC bc it makes it easier for ppl to mod it seems. No Tomac and Grant does seem odd but lets not get too picky here. This game looks really cool and although the air physics don't look good, the ground physics look pretty good just like the MXGP series games and that to me is more important. Good cornering physics allows for great racing/battles and isn't that what a sx/mx game is all about? Racing? Overall I'm looking forward to this game more the then All out, but ill be buying both because both are good for the sport I love and I want to support that so they continue in making mx/sx games in the future

Lol.there you go. I never play as myself. To me that would be the definition of unrealistic! Me against Kenny and Chad! Yeah, that would never happen. Smile I just play as my favorite riders thru season mode.

Yes, having Factory Kawasaki as DLC would be stupid. Maybe you're right, they have some kind of special plan for them? I agree, i don't really care if they are in it. They would be the only ones that aren't in it and it doesn't really make a difference for me and my experience of the game. .

SMX cup was DLC in MXGP3 so i expect that MEC is DLC in this supercross game.

Sorry if this has already been theorized (haven't been through the whole thread). Is it confirmed that Monster Kawi isn't in the game? If not, could it be an unlock via achievement?

No it's not confirmed but there is no footage of Grant and Tomac in the game.

I think that Monster sponsors the series but when it comes down to licensing it's in Feld's hands. To which maybe Feld wanted Dungey on the cover and Monster wanted Tomac, and instead pulled them from the game out of spite. These things happen.

Here's a little more inside info. We will indeed get qualifiers, heats and LCQs. Not sure about semis yet but we'll be getting the whole full day's/night's events. I figured we would but that is great news to get confirmation.

what about 250s? Are they splitting East/West or will it just be one large 250 championship?

Well to each their own. I think you're the first person that I've come across that doesn't play as himself. I get why you're doing it but for most of us playing as our self is the only chance we'll ever get to line up against those guys but I'm sure you knew that already.

Besides, why would I want to play as someone else? I'll use some of your words. To me that is unrealistic. I can't play as someone else as I can't physically change bodies and cloning humans isn't reality as of yet lol.

Technically speaking yes Team Monster Kawasaki could be unlocked via achievement in the game say when you win the 450 SX title but I don't see why they would've gone that route for 2 riders. What's so special about them? That along with the fact that Tomac wasn't the 2017 SX champ makes unlocking those 2 specific riders via achievement make even less sense.

Had Tomac won the 2017 SX title I could see it make sense only because it would allow you to play as Eli with the number 1 as oppose to the number 3. Playing as Eli with the number 1 in a Monster sponsored game would make sense when you think of it as unlocking them via achievement.

I'm sure there's a reason behind it and I'm sure we'll eventually find out why they weren't included or if they were included via a special role.

Believe me I know and it sucks because some of them aren't cheap. On the other hand from a developers point of view I totally get. It doesn't cost them all that much to make and the returns are insane.

Just look up how much money Grand Theft Auto 5 has made off those micro transactions alone. It's really easy to see why they all do it. The online portion of gaming is big business. I can't say I blame them but personally I miss playing single player games that have a really good story mode.

DLC for Team Monster Energy riders would be really stupid if you ask me. Monster Energy Pro Circuit riders are included. Both teams are Monster supported so again it would be odd for them not to be included in the game.

Who knows they might have a special role in the game as part of the career mode or something and Milestone just hasn't unveiled it yet. Doubtful but never know.

In the MXGP games the MXdN is included in it and is not a DLC so I don't think that the MEC will be a DLC. I think it'll be included in the game at launch.

It'll be weird if Tomac and Grant are not included but not really the end of the world. At least not for me since I never play with the in game riders. Pretty certain most people play as themselves.

Wait and see I guess.

Lol.there you go. I never play as myself. To me that would be the definition of unrealistic! Me against Kenny and Chad! Yeah, that would never happen. Smile I just play as my favorite riders thru season mode.

Well to each their own. I think you're the first person that I've come across that doesn't play as himself. I get why you're doing it but for most of us playing as our self is the only chance we'll ever get to line up against those guys but I'm sure you knew that already.

Besides, why would I want to play as someone else? I'll use some of your words. To me that is unrealistic. I can't play as someone else as I can't physically change bodies and cloning humans isn't reality as of yet lol.
Yeah, it's just up to the individual. But like if you play Madden or something do you put yourself as QB? Of course, being we ride it makes a little bit of difference. So I get it. I just prefer to pick a rider and play thru replicating a real season.

Here's a little more inside info. We will indeed get qualifiers, heats and LCQs. Not sure about semis yet but we'll be getting the whole full day's/night's events. I figured we would but that is great news to get confirmation.

what about 250s? Are they splitting East/West or will it just be one large 250 championship?
Not confirmed but I would bet on it being set up just like the 2017 season was. Whoever was West will be West, etc.

I wouldn't know this because I always play as myself but can you even play as an in-game rider online?

Speaking of online I think this is officially the first MX game that has online seasons. Not exactly sure how that will workout. Sitting there playing 17 rounds straight will make for a very long day of playing. Maybe you'll have to play 1 round every Friday at 9pm or something similar.

Wasn’t Kawasaki an issue before? Like in Alive? Seems I recall THQ getting licensing for all the OEMs for DLC except Kawasaki, then they finally got Kawasaki a little while after all the others had been released. I know Kawasaki is in the MXGP games, but I’m assuming that team license is from Kawasaki Motors Europe N.V. as opposed to Kawasaki Motors Corp, U.S.A. like THQ used for their OEMs and would be needed for Supercross.

If it is anything like the MXGP games, you can play as your created rider on any bike u want (real life team or your own customized bike) or as a professional rider on their 2017 bike. Also, there is a "championship" mode in online races that consists anywhere from 3 to 17 online races, but it is a very bare-bones championship mode. I doubt it will be like some other games like F1 that feature a Co-op season mode where u can race an entire season with ur friend, you both lining up on the gate with 22 total riders. (Albeit 20 of them being A.I.)
Edit: I'm speaking about the MXGP series, specifcially MXGP3 when talking about the rider choice online and the online championships.

Ok, I just got confirmation from a 100% reliable source that we will indeed get the full nights event in Monster Energy Supercross.

Qualifiers, heats... everything. This will be the first time ever in any SX console game that we will be able to replicate the entire day and night's event in all 17 rounds plus Monster Cup. Smile Smile

Yeah, I couldn't answer that honestly. I'm getting some info from someone who worked on the project but that's pretty specific. You would think they could but it would take a little extra work I would think. But I think they will make it right.

iight , i kno in the only nascar game ive had , they had a race tht u can play on the game thts really similar to mec where u had to make a pit stop during the race before it was over , if not u would get docked in positions , no cautions stop so u had to put some strategy into the race on when to take the pit stop just like with the joker lane @ mec ,would be cool if they can insert the joker lane in there & figure out a way where the game will recognize it

Its a pretty integral part of that race so I would think they will make it work. Unless it's just a crazy amount of work to recognize it. Not sure.

The DiRT games have a joker lane and you’re penalized if you don’t take it once during the race, so I don’t see why someone like Milestone couldn’t do it.

I don't get people complaining about "overjumping issues" in milestone games. Try letting off the gas through the face of the jump. If you go to a pro outdoor national there are plenty of jumps that those guys run pinned to the face of it and use their momentum & scrubbing (not throttle) to put them where they want to be when they land.

Am I the only one here? I just don't get all the fuss. I feel like some people want the game to play itself for Gods sake.

I think people want a game where they can just go flat out and turn with no skill...maybe they don't have any real life experience
