Those who know me know that I try to keep everyone up to date on MX/SX games and news and such. I love our sport and I also love the games of our sport. So I try to keep my finger on the pulse and let everyone here know what I find out as quickly as possible.
Keeping my fingers crossed that this is what I 99% think it is. There's always that 1% chance I'm wrong but feel pretty confident about this and super excited for the reveal!!
But first of all, I ask that the other forum members PLEASE try to keep this about what looks like will be Milestone's new Supercross IP. Please no MX Sim, LCQ, MVA talk. Just for once. Please guys. Just start another topic for those games. It's all good. I support all games but really want to keep this on Milestone's game and whenever a new game comes along the threads usually get hijacked from the competitors. So, let's keep this on point because I think it is big news.
Every indication we saw at A1 (from the Barn Pros video) showed us that Milestone were taking 3d model photos of the riders. We also heard Paige Craig mention something about Christian having a photo shoot with Milestone. That coupled with a new "mystery" game of an entirely new IP from the company I think almost for certain confirms that we will see my dream game, the 2018 Official Supercross video game, from Milestone. What's great though is that we will see an announcement and get a sneak preview (as well as MXGP 3) in less than 2 weeks!!!!! Rejoice!! Here's the link.

Will be interesting to see how it plays out, I'm hopefully optimistic
I personally like Milestone's physics a lot though they, of course, have room for improvement. They get game speed and scale perfect which to me most get wrong. So right off the bat I am pleased with that. And plus I like the authenticity of their titles.
I just find it kinda amazing this could be shown so quick. I guess it has been in the works for a while. I'm confident this is what it is but like I said I'm scared as hell of that 1%!!
To me it seems there is no main player in the mx/sx game industry and it's just waiting for someone to take the reins. With the right licensing, game modes, and online play, these guys could easily take it and this could be a real winner.
The Shop
Nothing wrong with arcade physics, but some people want just a tad more realism, that's all. Even an option would be nice, many racing games across different platforms have this.
Pumping a bunch of money into a game, for example like milestone, and giving it a super realistic and unforgiving physics system would be a terrible idea because the people that are into that kind of thing are in the minority and it wouldn't sell well and they'd lose a ton of money.
I'm not gonna speak for tobz, but I think a lot of us can do without the super sim aspect while still having something that requires a little skill or learning curve to it. I personally just want something that is a full game AND not completely arcade styled. A middle ground between the arcade and super sim would be perfect for a game like milestone if it's legit as we hope it is.
