Glad to see the track editor. Should be fun.

Yet another mediocre motocross game from Milestone. Yay.

No publisher/developer takes official licenses and waters them down quite like Milestone.

No, but then no other developer would invest in such licenses. Remember every game we play is made within a budget. Some, like FIFA/NBA/Madden have large budgets that allow bigger investment. The fact that we have reasonably if not outstandingly solid games within such niche genres counts for quite a lot. Otherwise we’ll be pretty much down to a sports gaming experience that includes 4 or 5 games.

The two Supercross games and MXGP Pro are far better than mediocre. Very solid games. With the exception of MXGP 3 each new installment has been a nice step forward for each series.

Here's a look at the track editor. A bit disappointing at this point. However they are asking for input on Facebook so hopefully they will be able to add elevation changes.

13 days until release. The game is up for pre order on both consoles although I did have to do a search to find it on the PS4.

I've been pretty busy this summer so I haven't followed this game super close.

I will do a pre order for sure.

THQ Nordic has bought Milestone.
I hope this isn't the beginning of the end. Encore , and MX All Out are not good games.

Anyway here's some game play:

I will say I like how the tracks improve each year.

Re: MXGP 2019 Announced - Trailer, Screenshots, Release Date, and Some Features Revea

I'll have 4 hours in the morning before work to check the game out. I'll post a few briefs thoughts then.

Re: MXGP 2019 Announced - Trailer, Screenshots, Release Date, and Some Features Revea

Ok , Yesterday morning I played the opening race. I Joined the Kawasaki team that was available. After the opening race I ran a single short race on every track to check them all out. Milestone excels at track creation , I think they do a fantastic job.

A few new tracks on the circuit this year : Semarang , Imola . Afyonkarahisar , and Shanghi. It's also nice to see the return of Matterly Basin , Mantova and Saint Jean D'Angely. I could probably call Kegums a new track also because it's a completely different layout. Matterly Basin has changed in places also.

This game has a different feel than MXGP Pro has , the bikes have more weight to them , they are more grounded. In a small way the riding reminded me of the old MTX Mototrax game , not so much the handling but the weight.

Graphic's are nice game looks clean and crisp. The terrain deformation is good , some very nice ruts form although you don't seem to be able to use them they way you can in real life. I have been able to use the outer edge of the turns (The crown molding as Grant Langston calls it) so that’s nice. I stared my season race at Matterly Basin it was pouring rain at the start and by the end of the race the sun was out , mud , ruts , it was a mess , looked great.

I've continued on with my career a bit I moved up to Team Honda Red Moto , some of these teams have some nice bike graphics. I'm doing the double race season , short races to try and get some credits built up so i can buy some bikes then I'll go full race mode.

I've played on medium difficulty which got to easy fast and turned it up to hard and that's presenting a challenge so far but I'd say in a day or two I'll be maxing the difficulty out. The A.I. does seem tougher.

I like the game , it's very good , it didn't blow me away at first but the more I play it the more I like it. I think the overall change in feel from MXGP Pro is nice. It's like going from Supercross 1 to 2.

Haven't really checked out the playground a lot yet but it seems like there's a good amount to do there.


My only complaints so far are I really wish they would create a mode for people that want a realistic game , and by that I mean when I crash instead of re-spawning on the bike , I wish I had the option to have to get up , run to my bike and get back on and get going. Probably a lot to ask but I think it would add a lot to the game for people that like to run full length races.

My other compliant , there are no Suzuki's in the game. I realize there are no teams running them this season but they should still be in the game. WTF Milestone?

That's it for now. I'm sure my thought's will change after I play through the weekend. I will say this , I find myself leaving work early so I can get home to play this game , the perk of being self employed.

I was able to run a couple races yesterday.

I like it as well.

Looks way better and feels better on the bike.
