Seeking some opinions on something. And I know that this can and will be each individual's preference.
Do any of you...other than myself and also Kellen from the awesome Moto YouTube page Start Your Systems...think that Milestone sped 3 up too much? I know some complained 1 and 2 was too slow. Too me, it felt just right as does MX Sim speed wise. Everything else always feels a little to a lot too fast.
3 isn't too bad but it def is faster than real life. You can see that easily and also where lap times used to be pretty accurate for the replica tracks now they are no where near realistic. Most importantly, to me, it just feels too fast. Not Encore ridiculous fast but still quicker than it needs to be whereas 1 and 2 felt dead on perfect at replicating the true speed of a real bike.
And camera view does often alter how it feels. 1st person seems more the correct speed but 3rd person, which I prefer, feels faster. Though I'm sure they are the same.
Just curious on other's opinions. Thanks.

You would just sink in the air, very little float. When in real life the speed gives you lift and you reach your maximum trajectory before starting to fall. Seemed like 1 and 2 as soon as both wheels got off the ground the trajectory just pulled you down.
I think 3 tried to fix that by speeding the game up so it changes the trajectory but the bikes still feel fairly heavy to me.
Having said that I like the game I ran a 2 stroke in both series and had a blast. Although the bias in the 2 strokes is heavily on KTM.
if I were to judge MXGPIII by the third person cam I honestly wouldn’t be that big of a fan of the game, so to me first person view changes the game completely. Then again I’ve always been a fan of first person view in the most recent games. When I play Moto games I want to feel like I’m riding a dirtbike and that’s what does it for me the best. But I tell you what, to anyone that really wants to get extreme realism in a Moto game, you have to put some time in on MX simulator. It’s definitely worth the extremely hard learning curve and the amount of time that it takes to get good.
Sim is great but when you use aircards and such due to no high speed in area it really hurts the game as the AI programming is zero on the priority list.
I was actually really digging 2's Stadium series tracks. I do like the improved feel and physics of 3 but i do wish they hadn't sped it up so much. A game doesn't have to be overly accelerated for it to be fun to me. It would be like playing the Redskins in Madden but everyone is running 40% faster than in real life. Sorta hurts it. Simcade or not. I don't want correct speed or scale sacrificed.
Its not unbearable like Encore but it's right on the verge, to me at least.
I loved how you actually had to be patient in corners and shit..
On topic, I think the speed is good! You actually feel like ya gettin at it
Speaking of "stadium" tracks, I really wish we would get some info on the 2018 Official Supercross Video Game. Maybe an announcement at MEC? Milestone def stays tight lipped about their games. Hope it is still in development.
And I'll echo what some of you have said: If you're not playing MXGP3 in 1st person, you're really missing out. This game comes alive in 1st person.
I was wondering what in the actual F any of you were talking about.
I was thinking Milestone 3? the vet track?
Duh...
Carry on
I love mxgp3. Only complaints I have for the game is horrible lobbies. Sometimes it can take 5-10min to get more than 1 other person into the lobby. So its more of a game of entering/exiting lobbies until you're in one w/ multiple people, or get invited into a lobby.
2nd complaint, I'll be racing online and sometimes I will get reset when I'm in the center of the track. Zero reason to be reset, and when it does, sometimes it resets me 1-4 corners prior to where the reset was. It'll happen race to race as well, unless I exit that lobby and join a new one.
Otherwise fantastic game
I know everyone is worried about whips but weighting outside peg and ground physics are more important to me.
3 also seems a bit fast in 3rd person. But some aspects are better in 3. I've got to go back and play 1 a bit but curious what others thought.
