The Crew™ 2

Do not buy this game, they're just going to make it unplayable like they did with the first game.

perfect game for lazy people who want to travel around america

very bad game, crashes mostly. My specs

Was an euro, driving feels arcade as fuck, world not super detailed (but huge). planes and boats exisist.

All things great, except no way to play in offline and somehow when what's left is endurance racing you can get sleepy while racing

This game is one of the best car games, there is so many cars, race, and much more, the only thing that i dont love about this is, where is the supra? lol

Unplayable, Battle Eye freezes the entire pc not just the game.

Got it for $1 and wasn't expecting much, but I was so wrong. Really, really fun game. Been enjoying it quite a lot.

Just buy Motorfest, or don't, it's Ubisoft we're talking about. Good game though.

The driving in this game feels like it was designed by people who exclusively use public transport.

the graphics and gameplay are very good maybe the gameplay a bit too arcade for me but i like the fact that u can ride a motorcycle and then the next second youre in a plane. It has a very good car catalog and customisation are nice.Playing it with friends will make it more fun. A downgrade is the fact that this game doesnt get updates anymore but whats fair is that this game is pretty old so i kinda get it. 9/10

Only Ubislop would be capable of turning Forza Horizon and turn it into a soulless, boring game. Even Dirt 5 has more soul than this. The gameplay is absolutely repetitive and monotonous. The soundtrack is the most mid, boring thing imaginable. Even Unbound, which has a polarizing soundtrack, elicits more emotion. At least people have feelings about it. The Need for Speed sections are also completely uninspired. They put 0 energy into the police chases as well. Most of the game is spent racing alone on a time trial, or in first place miles away from anybody else. The handling is also dull and lifeless, it's like the car is driving itself. The Laguna Seca recreation is the most apt description of this game: everything is wrong, the elevation, the kerbs, the environment, the turns. The silhouette only vaguely resembles the track. They ruined the Corkscrew. It's like this game was made by an AI. I regret buying it.

How does this game have a mostly positive rating here?

First of all, let's get the basic pluses out of the way:
- the graphics are vibrant (mostly) and the atmospheric effects add to the game's beauty
- the car models are ok
- I appreciate the inclusion of boats and planes
- it has a huge map of the US
- the car focused events can be awesome

However, that's where the positives end. As a former player of The Crew 1 (R.I.P), I expected an all around better game here, something akin to what Assassin's Creed 2 was to Assassin's Creed 1. Yet, I feel like this game is full of missed opportunities, and even regressed in some parts.

My main gripe is with how hollow, barebones the whole thing feels. There's no story to speak of, instead going for a Forza Horizon-like follower/festival cringefest, with passable voice acting and atrocious NPC models. This whole "dudebro, chill"vibe just kills my enjoyment of the game. The world gets barely used to its full potential, and honestly, is it just me, or are some areas actually worse looking than in the previous game? More empty.

The car events are pretty good, from what I've played the game offers a variety of racing events tailored to different car types (drag/street/touring etc.). That's the nice part, the trouble is with the handling, which is extremely arcadey, making the cars feel like go karts with vacuums attached to their bottoms. This works during stunt races but not really for others. The car noises are also pretty bad.

The rest? Apart from the LIVE events (cough Horizon showcase cough), the courses focusing on planes and boats are either too slow, or too boring. They're not that interesting, and feel like time wasters. Though I do like the different view the planes offer, they make the world feel massive, even moreso than the longer car races do.

What's also terrible is the upgrade system. Why, oh why does it need to work like something out of AC Odyssey with colored parts and stats? Really? In a car game? It was bad in other games, but here it feels absolutely despicable as a system, almost like playing a looter shooter or Diablo on wheels without having to work for your reward in a more combat-focused manner.

The music is ok, though NFS and FHorizon have better playlists (honestly even TC1 does, though that game's now unplayable).

The UI is a mess...it looks cluttered and ugly. Too much style over substance, while trying to ape Forza. Why not, since the devs supposedly have experience with Test Drive Unlimited, not copy its simplicity? Or housing system? Clubs? At least you can walk around your hangar. I'm ranting...but compared to the previous game, that one definitely felt more complete on that front, more usable in many ways.

As for performance, the highest FPS you can have is 60...but the game at least works and doesn't crash all the time.

All in all, the game as a whole feels boring to play. It's true that I only have 5 hours played here, but that's enough for an initial impression me thinks. What's more, with all the other arcade car racing games on Steam, this one feels like a bad option. Again, compare this to Horizon or NFS2015, all much more interesting games from various standpoints.

The best description I can have for this game is that it's trying to be a jack of all trades but it's a master of none.

5/10

Not a great game for PC at lease, very laggy and just not great over all your better off with Need for speed games.

It`s really good, got it for like few cents on a heavy discount, but will not forget how Ubisoft killed the first crew game.

Slop, barely functional, good for one or two launches, forces a ubisoft launcher, which is a crime in itself, mediocre at best. A fruit of corporate "design"

I bought The Crew 2 for 1 € on sale. After playing it for a couple of hours, I can say that it's barely worth that 1€.
Loose and unresponsive controls, totally unrealistic car behavior, boring tracks and a bad upgrade system, all located in a huge world filled with static (unbreakable) objects. That's what you can expect from The Crew 2.
Sure, there are plenty of cars and the graphics are decent, but the gameplay is utterly terrible. I wouldn't even call this game a "Forza for the poor" because the quality of Forza Horizon games is light years ahead of this half-product and it doesn't even deserve the comparison. The only thing I liked about The Crew 2 is the photo mode, which is hands-down a completely useless feature in a racing game (or any game for that matter).

Score (out of 10):

5.5

amazing game, but a con is that you gotta use ubisoft launcher

u play is trash cant even get into the game, have to make an account even though ive played the game before, make the account now i need a product key, its steam no product key, 3 hours trying to get onto the game absolute trash i do not recommend anything with ubisoft play to anyone

great game! been playing for months and still competing for summit car.

Crew 2 is regret, I bought the game for 80 cents at the time, but the game is still terrible graphics, controls, even the game itself is shit, I thank the 7 dollars I gave to Forza Horizon 4 at the time, in short, fuck you and play Forza (fuck Ubisoft)

game didn't even load, asked for a steam cd key but the game doesn't support cd keys

good game but the user interface is very very complicated , the story is not that good , no cut scenes etc , they should make the next one with better story line

The more i try to like this game,the more i hate it. Controls are awful. feels like riding a potato. Try not to crash into anything because physics are gonna make you sick.

Seems like devs never ride a car, never played a good racing game and don't have any understanding of physics.
Maybe worth 1$, only to fly the planes.

such a fire game, even more fire when you play with friends, rear ending each other for hours. You can never get tired of this game, the soundtrack, the huge amount of vehicles to choose from, amazing map and visuals. Challenging at times, but being able to have full freedom of whatever you want to do in the game is the reason i love this game so much. Being able to put on the game whenever you feel like it and spend hours in what feels like seconds just driving around, finding random easter eggs or getting random vehicles you never would have imagined (wth is a hovercraft). This game never gets boring, and i still have so much of the world to explore, and cars to buy.

It's nice to just chill on long drives, but you can also go for action and play some drift missions. Or you can just do whatever you want.

The game would not even start. BattlEye or whatever wouldn't ever load the game. Plus, it forces you to open Ubisoft Connect... I'm glad I only paid $1 for this trash.

Pretty good open-world arcade racer. Graphics aren't great for a 2018 game, but that doesn't really matter when you're going 200 down the interstate. I've had some issues with FPS tanking randomly in cities, but otherwise it runs fine.

The Crew 2: Drive anything, crash everything.

You start with a car. Five minutes later, you're flying a plane.
The game lets you swap vehicles mid-air. Naturally, you try to land a boat on a skyscraper.
Physics? Sometimes they exist. Sometimes they don’t.
The AI racers have supernatural rubberbanding abilities. You’ll pass them, but they’ll always come back.
Someone challenges you to a race. They’re driving a F1 car. You're in a monster truck.
The open world is massive, yet you’ll still somehow end up lost.
"Just one more race" turns into a five-hour cross-country road trip.

8.5/10 - Would turn a Lamborghini into a submarine again.

It is really well made for the most part, and its a lot of arcade fun, but it doesn't look like it is really supported. Guess that's why I got it for eight bucks American.

I would recommend if they were doing upkeep, but stupid simple fixes are not addressed. Like the fact that if you want to get the achievement for a bridge picture in the fog, you have to set it to "sandstorm" Or if you want the most expensive car driving award, you have to drive a mid-ranged one that costs HALF the price of the most expensive. Stupid stuff like this will waste your time trying to finish this game. Seems like they don't care about supporting it. Kinda like the original one.

We'll see if things change, but I expect disappointment and abandonment.

Fun, a lot of different cars to try, the motorfest version is better tho, I bought the game on sale for 1.52$, I was pretty amazed how it runs really smooth on potato devices on ultra graphics, the game modes are pretty amazing, I recommend playing this even in 2025

I love the game, it has its flaws that could be improved, to put a little more love in. Because the game is beautiful but the world is too empty and the races are mostly the same.

The game has overall bad physics, but it is beacouse the game is just huge. I totally recommend buying the game but consider buying motorfest beacouse its just newer and thats it.

You know the phrase "It just works"? This game is the opposite of that.

Game is advertised as working with Logitech G29, and it does... until you press 'x' and enter the menu. Then it reads it as a generic wheel and all of the binds for the controls are empty. Restarted the game, ran it as admin, reinstalled G-Hub, restarted the PC, nothing works. Ubisoft recommends running a clean boot of Windows and "seeing if that works". As if that's an acceptable thing to ask a customer to do. This is also a well-known and documented issue, that they have just refused to fix.

If you Alt+TAB the game will flicker incessantly between desktop and the game until you force close it. You turn the audio settings for music and radio down, but the game still blasts music on launch. The quit button on the main menu literally does nothing. I pressed it repeatedly to zero effect.

Like most Ubisoft games, this one is a half-baked, unsupported mess, with advertised functionality missing from the game. If you like Forza Horizon, but hate yourself, this is the game for you.

The Crew 2 is an open-world racing game that offers an exciting and diverse experience, but with some ups and downs. Set in a beautifully recreated United States, the game allows you to race across cities, mountains, rivers, and skies in various vehicles, including cars, boats, planes, and motorcycles. I appreciate the sheer variety of options and the freedom to switch between vehicles mid-race. The map is massive, and I love how I can just jump in and explore without feeling confined to specific routes. However, while the gameplay is fun, I feel that the progression system can be repetitive at times, and the AI racers don’t always provide a real challenge. The multiplayer mode is a highlight, letting you connect with friends or compete in thrilling events. Overall, The Crew 2 is a solid racing game, but it could use some improvements in AI and mission variety. I’d give it a 7.5/10. I will recommend this game for people that loves cars and racing!

i'm not sure if this has an offline mode as yet but otherwise this game is amazinggggg. wish the crew 1 had an offline mode for console tho could've gotten the chance to finish it when the time came :)

Very cool open world drive any vehicle you can think of. Being made by Ubisoft you can expect much love for detail and more activity signs on the map than you can ever complete. I like it a lot! Especially the races where you transform into another vehicle during the race several times. Much fun to be had here, there is something for everyone. It's a bit flat at the start, but there are harder difficulties later which are some good challenges!

Short review: Score 8/10. I think this is one of the best driving game that I've played. Not the better, since the story mode does not have any story haha but I didn't buy it for the story, and I think that the game gives you what it promises in the trailer ♡♡♡

Detailed review:
* Story: 1/10.

* Game play: 8/10. I wouldn't play it for too long at a time, since it can be repetitive.

* Art / Design: 9/10. I LOVE THIS MAP AND VEHICLES.

* Characters: 6/10. Not a long list of playable vehicles.

* Bugs: None.

It's actually a pretty decent racing game, Not just cars, but bikes, planes and even boats. The map is HUGE, and there's alot of activities in the game. Honestly, this game would be a really good racing game if the developers had done better.

but there's alot of stuff I don't enjoy/cons:
- 60 FPS limit sucks.
- Limited car choices, (somehow there's too much "edition" in the game.)
- It NEEDS to be ONLINE.
- THE WEBSITE IS DEAD! I CAN'T HAVE MY REPLAYS!

(Personal cons): I can't say that I enjoy the gameplay, on how the cars go corner just feels off to me, the physics are something else.

amazing game, i love that there are many different vehicles to choose from. would recomend.

Decent game but if I compare its mechanics and graphics with forza 4 or 5, forza is way better

cons:
the driving does not feel smooth at all
there is no exit to menu or restart option during a mission (wtf???)
must be connected to the play solo single player
graphics looks like unfinished texture
pros:
probabely a great coop if enjoy the genre
such a big and vast map for an openworld racing game
u can master the game easily
various game mods and races
(this one's personal :) ) u can find a Godzila gtr34 on almost every car class in the game

Open-world yet the streets feels way too empty most of the time for a game set in America.
Half-baked features and being unable to change your avatar. If you picked the wrong gender+nationality well though luck.
The fact that a hentai game like Koikatsu has better avatar creation over a big game like this is frustrating.

I really want to love this game, but there are so many flaws here and the developers just forgot about it. First of all, I want to point out that the 60 FPS limit is complete crap. The game world is empty, and the weak graphics complement this even more. Only grind. Next, about the Live Summit events. After almost 7 years (!), it's still hard to get into the top 4,000 players to get platinum, even when the online on Steam reaches a peak of 1,000 people. It's really not worth the time. I want to highlight the cool opportunity to transfer cars and cosmetics to The Crew Motorfest. Maybe someday the developers will add the promised offline mode and not repeat the fate of the first part of the game.

its very nice i like the fact that it is almost free roam and stuff if you want there are cool vehicals and the races are very nice and the fact that you have ur own followers account is more sick sooooo i guess its very nice 9/10 it just needs more fast cars i guess there not that fasts for me lol plus there was an offer for this game being 2 dhs and 1 doller is 3 dhs soooo im rich yay lol theres is to many errors in this but im to lazyyyyy

This game is still good tho but for livery community I prefer FH because it can be search by the name of livery instead scrolling it like this game

The Crew™ 2 is a massive, ambitious racing game that lets you explore a scaled-down version of the United States in a variety of vehicles, from cars and motorcycles to boats and planes. The sheer scope of the game is impressive, offering a seamless open world filled with diverse landscapes, iconic landmarks, and endless opportunities for exploration.

The gameplay is fun and accessible, with a focus on variety and freedom. You can switch between land, sea, and air vehicles at any time, and the game encourages you to try different disciplines, from street racing and off-roading to aerobatics and powerboat racing. The controls are solid across all vehicle types, though some may feel more polished than others.

The story is light and serves more as a backdrop for the action, but the real draw is the game’s sense of freedom and progression. Building your reputation and unlocking new vehicles and events is satisfying, and the online multiplayer adds an extra layer of excitement.

Visually, the game is stunning, with detailed environments and dynamic weather effects that bring the world to life. The soundtrack is a mix of genres that fits the game’s energetic tone, and the sound design is top-notch.

Rating: 8/10 - A thrilling and diverse racing experience that’s perfect for fans of open-world exploration.

Feels like fast and furious fever dream where physics took the day off, Great concept but questionable goobisoft execution much like my driving

Completley garbage. If you are on a laptop that doesnt have a "right control" button you literally cannot beat the tutorial. And yes, you I tried changing the keybind, and it doesnt seem to work. Only way to play it is if I buy a new keyboard or a controller.

Doesnt work with PlayStation controller and when it is working , the controls are so scuffed
