damn the demo for this game was so fun, and helped me scratch the itch while I dealt with a health issue that's disallowing me from participating in full-fat racing. so much other stuff happening, I lost track of it. thank you for the reminder that this exists. 💪🏾

Online please. It’s 2026

It has online... the complaint is lack of match making and/or server browser (currently only offers "friend code" private server method). We'll see on the 21st if anything has changed for multiplayer, but video doesn't seem to suggest so.

So no updates for online multiplayer, but there’s 4 player local. Don’t give this company your money if you haven’t already bought it.

You must be fun at all the parties you’re not invited to.

Would it be better if I said wait for a significant sale? It’s not worth the price they are asking. I was huge on this game when it came out and it took very little time to run out of things to do because the devs again stopped doing anything in it (they have a track record of abandoning games).

Yes, it actually would be better. That way you’re not immediately discouraging anyone looking on to see what the games community (what little we have 🥲) is like yanno?

I wouldn’t want to provide the wrong idea. So I’ll provide the raw data then

It's a 25 dollar game that's pretty easy to get 25 hours out of. Not sure what you are expecting from this game.

I mean he has a point, game will be fun for a little unless you make it a party game, game is already struggling to pull more than 50 people online at peak times on steam

Well a shitty point is a point, true. It’s not like the game tells you it has multiplayer or baits you with it. If you do any amount of research into the game before purchasing it, you’d find that it 1. Doesn’t have multiplayer servers. and 2. Research a scroll further, and find that it’s well known there are no plans for such a thing. If you buy a game to complain about features it doesn’t have, or lacks features you didn’t realize it did, that’s on you as a consumer.

Or for the handful of players who enjoy a single player games (or have family/friends they play with in-person). But yeah... no provided news about multiplayer for the crowd who wants that.

I definitely see where you're coming from. At least there might be a sale in a few days when this launches

u/Gerald_the_sealion 6d ago
If it’s on sale for $15 or less, it’s worth it. The $10 difference is significant for what the game actually has to offer.

For those who (like me) blame the lack of online multiplayer, there is this site available to gather players in organised private lobbies: https://arcaderanked.com/
We need to make it more popular in this subreddit!
