I feel for those who've forked out for the game right now... I'm still undecided as to whether to buy it not or wait a while. I'm still disappointed, but slightly relieved that my expectations are slightly lower now that you guys have given us all the valuable feedback so far.
Also, I'd agree. The game is NOT perfect, but it is fun and exactly what everyone has been asking in a game for years. I'm super exacted about the game and it's been really fun to play so far.
pros:
-It is a good looking game (except for uncanny valley effect on rider faces).
-The cornering and acceleration feel pretty good.
-I enjoyed picking parts for my bike. (I assume DLC for better graphics kits, bc ones they have aren't good)
cons:
-Just go 4th or 5th pinned into corner, t-bone guy and still make corner just fine.
-I played some online and that felt more like bumper cars than supercross.
-Many connection issues with online.
-Muted players in lobbies don't stay muted when you get to race. (some real annoying guys on last night), but you can turn it off completely. Just thought that some guys I'd actually like to hear.
-The AI is terrible. It may be challenging at harder difficulties, but not for the right reasons.
I saw more than half the field crash on the first straight away... they all spawned in a line wheel to wheel and freight trained around the entire track.
-Game is definitely buggy. A few times had to restart due to unresponsive menus.
-I feel like there is serious lack of depth in the game as well. Once you've won on every track, there's not really a sense that I need to do it again. Most tracks felt like the same thing.
-Track editor is nice, but a little too cookie cutter. I got done with a track and it really didn't feel like it was mine. Just felt like the same whoops, triple, finish jumps as the other tracks.
-In-air feels floaty.
-The only thing that matters for a jump it feels is speed. there is not really any difference in feeling if I lean forward or backward.
I think what made the game more enjoyable is actually taking it out of auto-transmission. I'm having a blast changing gears when the track calls for it.

The Pros:
- The games speed and feel when its working right is great.
- Heats qualifiers etc
- Bike customization (outside of career mode, on the main menu)
- The Flaws:
- Lack of consistency in track design (talking size of whoops, jumps) sometracks feel like a nice scale and big... Then tracks like seattle/ san diego, feel like they were built for an 80.
- Multiple bugs ive encountered
- The fact that i got random corrupt data at the start of salt lake city and my career is fubar now.
- lack of a challenge, in main events... heat races are way way harder.
- The career mode, leaves more to be desired, I wish i could be signed by pro-circuit or whichever real teams they have or created.
- Lack of bike control in mid-air.... I wish i knew programming because im sure you can make the bike move more freely.. (Till this day, i do not understand why nobody but mx sim/reflex can make a motorcycle move freely)
- The skins or liverys of the first sponsor you choose are downright fugly.... In the bike customization on the main screen you have way way better sticker kits.
- Major pet peeve was choosing a number and having to hold right on the joystick forever and a day to get to #115 since i cant be #15.

Honestly unless they release a huge patch that knocks out some major issues, I will be gladly playing Mx Vs Atv Allout... because there games User's interface and functionality is usually good with the exception of (alive & untamed)
- They better patch it fast or AllOut is going to win this mx game battle by default.
Lack of control in mid-air? They improved it a TON from MXGP3. I'm glad it's not near as sensitive as MvA.
I really believe they had to have some beginner style tracks in there to suit some people. Not everyone is a hardcore gamer and can do everything clean. It does take 2 tracks out of the general rotation for me though, but that's okay.
Good suggestion.

i played for a couple hours last night, "played"... most of my time was spent staring at loading screens and resetting my playstation.
i timed a loading screen between the Heat race and the Main... 3 minutes. 3 fucking minutes. that's just outrageous. especially when i already sat through the loading screen from the main menu to the qualifier, then again from the qualifier to the heat race. i can't imagine any scenario in any game i've ever played where that would be acceptable. if you count turning the console on, i had to sit through 4 loading screens just to get to the main event. i think i'll switch it to just go straight to the main so i don't have to sit and stare at a fucking load screen.
the game has a ton of potential, but at it's current state it is broken. and not just a little broken. a lot broken. you shouldn't have to reset your console just to continue through the game. i'm not even sure how many times i had to reset in 2 hours last night, but it was more than 3.
really disappointed because actually racing is fun. but fuck man, the experience from when you turn your console on, fire up the game, and finally get to hit the track are enough to drive a person mad. no amount of "authenticity" will make me blind to that fact.
rant over.
looking more forward to MXvsATV now.
yeah load screens are to be expected in any game, but it's pretty damn ridiculous in this one.
Aside from the problems, this is the best gameplay I've ever experienced in an MX game. I'm super excited to get home from work and play. The load times and bugs are still worth the hassle to me.
I wouldn't put too much stock into the MvA game. It might not be broken but the gameplay will still suck in comparison to MES. What I'm trying to say is I would take a buggy game that plays good over a clean game with trash physics every day.
Milestone deserves to be blasted for what is happening right now, but I trust that they will make it right soon enough.
When I do actually get to race, yes it is very fun. Probably going to refund it back until it's fixed though.
As of now there's no specific time or race series for two reasons. One, it's new so better to give time to learn the game/tracks. Two, there's so many issues with the game it's better to wait and see if Milestone releases a patch to fix them.
For the moment just go to the community and start a party so other members can join your lobby. If there's already one started just join in on the fun.
I know there's two choices.
Pit Row
I'm with you on the restarting the game. Fucking ridiculous. I did a championship series with the 450 and it goes from track to track without any issues except for the track loading between each session. It should load once until the event is done and load the next track and that's it.
Started doing the career mode with the 250 late last night and what a pain in the ass it is. I literally have to restart the game after each race in order to get to the following one. Add that with the loading times and it takes forever just to finish a race. I switched it to qualifying and main event only. Don't think I could do full events in its current form.
Milestone needs to start rolling out patches in the next week or a lot of people will say fuck these guys and move over to THQ Nordic's game and never look back.
The control is improved from mxgp games no doubt. Im talking about in air control like this (I guess you can say body english, movement on faces of jumps etc)
as for the tracks, I see what you mean but it shouldnt be such a discrepancy...Ive only raced 9 of the tracks and 2 of the created ones.
There's issues on all the platforms yet everyone seems to experience different things. Makes absolutely no sense to me.
I'm not sure how Milestone is going to address all of those things but they sure have their work cut out for them that's for damn sure.
