Today Ubisoft released another video of the upcoming open-world racing game The Crew Motorfest, and this time it's all about the beautiful landscapes of Hawaii.
I'm actually really excited for this, as I spent just short of a year on Oahu for a work contract back in 2009. This looks really nice and brings back warm feelings.
@0:53 looks like it took some artistic liberties and used Maui's Haleakala crater as inspiration. (which feels weird, bc it's such a protected, sacred area!) Western Oahu doesn't look like that, but it's cool to bring a bit more variety to this overworld.
It looks pretty promising; interesting varied location and according to first impressions the gameplay is good this time. But tbh I half expect Ubi to botch it all in the execution when they throw in mandatory sign-ups, always online, micro-transactions, GaaS, etc etc.
This would have been a no-brainer as an offline SP game where you just get a complete package and unlock new stuff through running through missions and a career-mode, but if the focus here is on ‘community’ and milking us dry, then shrugs and hard pass …

Is it company policy for everyone to have a buzz cut...even the women....blah
