Is anyone else on PS4 having the game lock up for 5 seconds or so in the middle of races? Happened to me twice last night at Vegas.

Do your best laptime on any track, then swap over to playing it on your computer monitor if you have one and repeat... im betting 2 to 3 seconds a lap and better control. When youre done that, try playing a first person shooter.
Millions of nerds better than you at video games cant be wrong lol once I realised that nd swallowed my pride my experience has been better
as for the gameplay, i'm of the side that this may be the best moto game in terms of feel. i love the gameplay side of the game, it's spot on. cornering feels fluid and smooth, you can square them up, rail them, take the inside and get on the gas, tip-toe around the long circle-turns.
the clutch is gay.
i don't like having to reload my bike-setup-data before every session.
the loading is fucking horrible. once i load Oakland stadium, i shouldn't have to load again after qualifying, heat, and into the main. that's just poor design.
and again, the menu system is absolute shit.
i'm very hopeful the next patch will go after some of the bigger issues, but some of them are built into the game and i can't see them improving. the game should have been delayed at least 6 months to polish.
my internet is pretty slow so i don't have online activity yet.
the track creator is sweet, going to take a lot of trial and error to learn the jumps/bumps/corners. i did get on and race a couple tracks that other people made though and that's cool. the loading process to ride someone else's custom track was no longer than loading the next race in a series. i dig the shit out of that.
oh, and i raced the first 4 races in 3rd person and had somewhat of a hard time not re-setting my guy a couple times per lap. switched to 1st person, and while it took a good 10 laps to figure out cornering, it's fucking unreal. best first person experience in a moto game i've had.
really stoked with the game. wish they would have put more thought into some areas, but for the most part it's a really solid first attempt. can't wait to get more time in on it.
I played for a couple of hours last night, finished a 250 season, played around with the track editor and did some minor bike tuning. Overall i'd say this is an improvement over the MXGP series, but still deeply flawed. Graphics look good, the track and bike models all look great, rider models look kinda bad but that doesn't detract much. Sound, menus and overall presentation are top notch once again. The fact that you can race heats, semis, lcqs and all those small details add a ton as well.
My biggest problem remain the controls. I played with all assists turned off from the get go and unfortunately it still handles like every other Milestone game. Some tweaks were made for sure, it feels a little looser and easier to control, especially in the air, but everything feels sluggish and on rails to me....and yes, the pre animated whips still look absolutely ridiculous.
Also, if you plan on playing this on the xbox one get ready for some LONG loading times and atrocious frame rate (i'm not kidding here, it gets REALLY bad).
I’m not trying to start an argument, I just don’t want misinformation spread.

Its only helping people on here maybe experiencing what each of us are.
But ya like i said its not simply the size...if u have a terrible screen vs a good screen size does not matter. But I figured if you had 2 options
a 32" screen vs a 65" screen with the exact same specs what would you choose?
Every video ive seen of MLG or Rooster Teeth people and nerds they are all playing on smaller tvs with high res/refresh.
Never seen someone play with a large 50+" 4k 240hz tv like I was used to
Aside from that, they got a lot of things right but missed a lot of little things. Just a few off the top of my head:
No flagger waving the white flag or checkered flag. Hell, nothing really at all jumping out to even let you know when it's the last lap.
The crowd is silent when there is passing for the lead but comes to life if you do a scrub in 14th place.
I use to game very competitively when I was in college. For anyone reading this and having trouble with their TV, trying going under picture or input settings in their TV and look for something called Game Mode. Sometimes this is only found on certain HDMI inputs but most always will be available in HDMI or if you have a HDMI input labeled “PC”. This will put the tv into a mode that lowers the input delay as much as possible and disable post processing stuff meant to smooth out TV feeds. It isn’t uniform though, it still depends on your TV.
Also a glitch where it will freeze for a fraction of a second in the last corner of the last lap on every race. It's as if the system lags a bit while loading the finish line animation.
That said, the tracks are really good for the most part. Some of the jumps seem retarded and impossible to clear on the 250. 450 may be better. Game play was extremely easy, but I also left it on the easiest setting while learning the game. I will change the physics and difficulty level today and try it to see if that makes things better. I do think it's an improvement over GP3. I got bored with that game really fast. The bike seems to respond better in SX to casing jumps and things of that sort.
My only real complaint at this point is the glitch I ran across as it's really annoying. Also after finishing a race, it seems like you have to click proceed 25 times to get though all the garbage.

I’m an avid Counterstrike player and play on a 24” 144hz HP Omen monitor. Used to play on a 17.5” laptop, that’s when it’s too small and you are slower to react to things at a distance or in dark corners. I believe 23”-25” would be the sweet spot.
Personally I prefer to play motocross games on my XBOX ONE that is hooked to a 50” 4K Samsung UHD TV. I like chilling on the couch when I play my moto games. Its a nice change from the stress/high pressure of Counterstrike lol. I’m sure I would race a little better if I hooked my Xbox to my monitor, but like I said, I like playing from the couch in the living room when it comes to MX games
It's a hassle that shouldn't be, but it works for me.
