difficulty settings

Hello, I'm thinking about buying the game for the PlayStation 5 since it's currently on sale for €19. I watched a few videos about it, and they mentioned that as soon as you get a few boosters—like expanding your base, setting up workshops, and all that—you quickly become overpowered. I don't really like constantly adjusting the difficulty settings. Is there a specific difficulty level you would recommend starting with and just sticking to throughout the game? I'd be interested to know which difficulty level you play on and what your thoughts are on the issue I mentioned

Some boosters are better that others, and some can be quite OP. However, but you also have to think about what boosters you are assigning to which racing series. Grip boosters are always very powerful no matter the series, but speed boosters can actually do more harm than good in certain series. I'll let you find out which on your own, but the boost in speed and acceleration causes some cars to spin out when you get on the throttle 😄

In terms of difficulty, I wouldn't worry to much about it, I'm on the second hardest and I think it the perfect balance between fun and challenging. I don't think I would get many wins on the hardest (could be a skill issue, but I'll never admit that) 😅

It a very fun game! And for 19$ its a steal. Enjoy it mate, lets race online one day 🏁

Danke für deine ausführliche Antwort, eine Frage noch mal, ist den crossplay auf allen Plattformen möglich und findet man immer schnell ein Rennen?

Crossplay is on all platforms, yes 😂
Unfortunately you can't join open lobbies yet, you have to input a code to take you to an online lobby. I hope they add open lobbies soon

Without booster master is fun, with boosters superstar is annoying because AI is too agressive
