But man, Rainbow do not listen. At least not to the MX community. They are more concerned about backflips and over the top nonsense. I've tried to give them the benefit of the doubt but they just want to make a casual fan off road vehicle game. Which is fine. More power to them. Just not my preference.
I'm sure it will be better than Encore but if it doesn't have replica tracks I doubt it will hold my interest. They take way too many liberties with their dreamed up tracks and usually are nowhere near anything realistic.
With that being said I've already pre ordered so call me a sucker again. Lol. My expectations are low so maybe it will be a real good game.
Some of their answers just bug the hell out of me. I want it to be good but honestly I think it will be Unleashed 2017. Meh.
And no, they should have focus groups or the MX community to give input. Not random people playing for 10 minutes.
Same ol same ol from this team. Milestone may struggle a bit with air physics but they get nearly everything else right and at least they succeed in representing the true sport we love. Rainbow just wants to make games for non moto fans. It just aggravates me. Sorry for being frustrated.
Just glad I've got something else to look forward to. But like I said, I'll give them another shot...again.
like i said a couple of times...i bet this game is more fun to play then the new supercross game. i’m tellin ya!

If they can't get the physics running right, or have the rider looking goony and launching to the moon in slow motion, then why does it matter if they have pretty replica tracks. Answer : a polished turd is still a turd.
I purchased the Supercross 2017 replica tracks because I thought it would be pretty sweet to be doing the same track that was coming up that weekend. (All the tracks released Tuesday before the race so you could be racing on whatever layout was coming up that weekend.) The rhythms you hit on the game were ridiculous and not even close to what was being done by Tomac and Dung on the weekends. So, in all honesty, I bought the tracks and ran them on Tuesday that they released before the race and that was probably the last time I touched them. By the time Vegas came and they released the Vegas layout, I was over it. You can have replica tracks, but if the physics blow, it. is. pointless.
And also, it would be dumb for these guys to cater to the hard core mx gamer. Why would they base a game around us, when in the end they could make the game for the average bob joe and Billy to have fun on? In the end they know we will buy the game. How many of you guys on here said you've preordered the game? They already have you in the palm of their hand. They need to bring outsiders in, that's their goal. They already have us, they want more.
Back in the early 2000s I much preferred EA Supercross and MX2002 and Superfly to Unleashed. Then I preferred MTX Mototrax to MX ATV Unleashed/Untamed. I did like Reflex and loved Alive's JS7 stuff..the best thing Rainbow has EVER done.. but their inability to create a season points series back then made it pointless. Like having the Redskins in Madden but all you can do is play exhibition games with no season. Meh.
When they finally added back a points series and got replica tracks it was stuck on one of their worst efforts in years so Encore was a huge disappointment. Again, I'd take any of the 3 MXGP titles over it, especially 2 with the super fun Stadium Series.
So history tells me that we should just agree to disagree on what I want and what they are going to do. Its sad because I think they could make a great game. The direction is more the problem than the execution, in my opinion.
The physics on this game will be deciding factor in my opinion. Even without all the real bikes/gear if they made the physics fun like Reflex I'll be a fan. If it's more of the same stuff we've seen since Alive, then I'll give up on the MXvATV series and hope the MXGP physics get better.
I do realize the current team is small and does have a small budget but MVA is the biggest selling MX franchise in gaming history. I'm sure, along the line, they could have made it happen if really wanted to. Milestone isn't exactly the biggest company, either.
MVA has been called the official game of SX since back when Reflex and Alive came out so there have been ties and of course last year with Feld and the replica tracks.
I don't know. I just think it's odd they can never do it, can't be done, etc for 14 years then boom a small Italian company makes it happen.
Regardless, I hope the game is good.
I do want them to listen to us. The MX community. When they don't, yes, I get frustrated. I do so because I've spent lots of dollars on this series, lots of times on forums making suggestions and I support in hopes they improve and give us a serious, good game.
You were able to switch vehicles in an earlier game without having to quit the game, select a new vehicle and load a new environment. I remember just riding up to a monster truck in an open world map, press a button and off you went with the truck, atv, plane, etc.
I think it'll be something like that.
For real though. If what Maverick is saying is accurate (and I think it is) I believe this game will be very fun. And I believe that will make up in a big way (not all the way) for any lack of excellence in physics & track realism. For once though... especially after reading Maverick's post earlier... THQ Nordic seems to be moving in the right direction.

Also, do you guys have an online gaming community for these games? I have a PC and a PS4.
Do you think they are taking a step in the right direction? or no?
Or are you trolling and you never played the game?
I also remember playing a motocross game where you start out as a “nobody” at some compound....maybe that was MTX or Superfly in the beginning? Not sure. I just hope they make this game really good.
Do a search for gamer tags/xbox names on here that way you can atleast add/play with people from the forum. If there's no Vital MX group on Xbox One just start one and invite the people from the board that play on that console. Besides it's free so you have nothing to lose.
Reason I created one is simply because I know I won't have to deal with a bunch of random kids trying to take people out for fun, saying bro/nigga every other word, etc. Not that everyone around here is mature but you know lol.
