Tried the EarlyAccess since release and heres the pros and cons. Pros. - Sounddesign is better than WF1 even with its basic EA release - FWD handling is the best ive seen in any game - 4 tracks, and they are all alot of fun to mess around in - Softengine at its peak and carparts can start flying if yorue not carefull. - 4 cars, all handle differently and all realisticly - Fastloading MP servers - Even with the little content it has atm, the game is sure alot of fun Cons: - Not much contentwise as of 24/03-25 - Cars tend to do some weird wheelspins that loses you alot of time if youre going for a leaderboardtime (Doesnt need to be full throttle or at gravel for this to happen middrive) - The Racing Wheel feel is one of the worst ive ever seen unfortunatly. FFB is laggy and turns on bigtime to make it hard to steer and then randomly shuts off making it easier than a powersteered car which makes you crash out. - Trying to get settings to work on said wheel, controller or keyboard (if youre a savant haha) is also one of the worst things in WF to date, having to do it all by hand is a pain in the Cornholio. - Bots are too passive even at the hardest settings, would like to see them want to compete more in the future with blockattempts, aggressive overtakes and take a chance with late braking or anything in that manner. I want to get the full Folkrace experience, not race against grannies! (And this comes from a VERY slow driver) OVERALL RATING: 7/10. Alot of fun but needs to fix afew things to make me wanna play it for longer periods of time. FFB fix is the most important there! :) Edit as of Update 1. - Your FFB isnt fixed, it still dies completley when restarting and is still weak with full ffb and force on. Cant even compare full force with a powersteered car so light it is the few times it works! - Another Edit on this issue here. Seems like the FFB with full force does decide to turn on sometimes and THEN it feels exactly like a non-powersteered car. But then again, after a reset/restart the wheel goes limp again. The full FFB rarely turn on with a 2/10 chance to turn on at the start of the race. - I miss the music, can we expect some One Desire, Jay Ray or Cyan Kicks in WF2 in the future perhaps? Update 15/05-25 Pros: -Fincross has gotten a real awesome lift and i love the feeling you get on the new track and the details put into it! -The new E36 feels awesome on track, great balance and well i hate BMW in real life so its still ugly af in my eyes, but drives like a Volvoraggare on the Swedish winters! -Rammers back in the game, tanky as always with a rear i just wanna bite my lips and smash 10/10 Cons: -Still no fix to the FFB problems when you restart a race (Still a 50/50 chance you get FFB at all) -The game still resets your wheels input so when i started the game i had the steering left and right on the same axis for some reason (Both set to Axis X instead of X+ and X-) -Messed up my finger because the FFB went from 0 to 100 force midrace when it decided to work, wouldnt recommend setting your FFB to high to kickstart the FFB, because you will mess up your hand if it takes you by surprise

first of let me say that this EA of this game is just a demo so you know what to expect..there are 4 cars and 3 circuits with different layouts and multiplayer with these attributres...thats it...no career,no tuning no more maps etc...you will see how the game will be developed from the beginning...what i saw is really great....lets start great graphics great destruction and driving models fantastic aggressive AI pretty good optimization just from the start what it needs banger soundtrack good career lots of tuning customizations more particles effect on destruction and nature effects...the dirt behind and at the front of the car is pretty lackluster and what i really miss from that flatout days?lots of those redneck maps through woods,farms,redneck villages oval racing is kinda meh... this game has the potential to be one of the greatest arcade racers right after forza... keep it up bugbear...big fan of flatout series

written day 1 early access lol its better than wreckfest 1 technologically this game is SUUUUPER early access, its got about an hour of content if you reeaaaaaallly stretch it. some fail to realize this "game" is out a whole year before the actual release, it kind of goes to show how quickly and simultaneously slowly (non-indie) game dev is lmao. i can def sympathize with people saying theres probably too little content to even warrant paying 24 dollars (at least the release discount takes off six dollars... to ease the pain a bit?) for what is literally nothing. but i see it as paying 24 dollars for the promise of a full 60 dollar game, and based off of wreckfest 1, there will be a lot of game. if anything, we get to vote on what we want from the game, which i find it really fun! that is if i ever pay attention enough to participate lmao. here is my main suggestion from wreckfest 1 that i really want in wreckfest 2: SPLITSCREEN MULTIPLAYER, PLEAAAAASE DUDE i cant even fathom the amount of hours i would happily dump into this game if i could play it with friends locally. i know not many games nowadays prioritize that, but i personally do lol. so devs, if you see this, please consider adding splitscreen multiplayer. please and thank you.

I love it, all the Negative reviews seem to focus on lack of content, I remember playing the first game in early access and it had 1 track but the final product ended up being awesome and this early release is way better than that, the physics , graphics and game-play are all improved, some people have no patience and want the game to be loaded with content from the outset for £20 quid, Let Bugbear do their thing, they know how to make the best Demolition derby style games, frickin loved Flatout 1 and 2, Oh and the wreckfest community was one of the best, If you don't like early access hold your horses and pay more for the 1.0 release in a year or two whilst I rack up killer lap times and skills.

DISCLAIMER This is a chance for wreckers to drive an early (!) version of the game. For anybody who is expecting a fully-fledged, perfectly optimized game with several modes, dozens of tracks and vehicles, as well as an extensive career mode, please consider buying once we are releasing the 1.0 version of the game.
