MotoGP14

[FastFreddy]

MotoGP14 is one of the worst games i have every installed on my pc. i deinstalled it after i played 5min this i-dont-know-how-to-call-this-garbage handygame...

totally agree! For me discover gpbikes is a breath of fresh air after a bath in the shit (mg14)

the point is that it is not even good as arcade-game.

Whilst I agree that gpbikes is a breath of fresh air, out of interest what would you consider to be a good quality "arcade" motorcycle racing game?

the pleasure to ride with a physics credible, but affordable for everyone. Mgp14 is simply annoying, not arcade.

O.K. I hear what you're saying. You are not alone in your viewpoint concerning Milestone's games. I have my reservations also.

Are you saying though that there is an "arcade" style motorcycle racing game that you enjoy playing and you think is quite good or are you saying you dislike all "arcade" style motorcycle racing games? That's a genuine question from me. 

I agree with you that gpbikes is awesome and I am also very glad to have found it.

Well .. if we are here, it is because we love the hardcore simulations and i take them very seriously. But I also like to do some good laps on good Arcade games just for fun

GP14 is a pretty game with no soul.

GP1 (Climax) was the last fun arcade GP game IMO. The connection between the tires and tarmac  was great.. The weight of the bike was right and the sliding wasn't silly like it became as the series turned to $hit. 

The PC version of GP1 is different than the xbl demo where as its much more sim than arcade and the times are a bit slower.  The game was tweaked for xbl.

The terrible thing about motorcycle games or racing games in general on consoles is that it attracts many walks of life. When the developers are looking for feedback they are getting general feedback from the masses and they take the most mentioned things and build from there to sell more games...

Setting times to a set of scoreboards and racing online are for sure the carrot. But physics and netcode go hand in hand.

As far as buying GPBikes I am content with what I have and feel my money went to a good cause. I have been with GPBikes since Alpha1 and even if Piboso pulled the plug tomorrow I would still feel that I got my moneys worth regardless.

Believe it or not... +1 

I have never played gp1 online but I can visualise what it must have been like. I can only imagine it was great fun..

Motogp14 is way better imo than motogp13. But if you cannot race competitively online then I can certainly understand why you might consider it to be souless. It comes alive, as any game does, when racing  amongst very stiff competition online. Offline it is rubbish really..I couldn't play it offline. I'd much rather race the  gp500 pc game, moto1, moto2 or motogp7 with the physics mod any day of the week.

I agree completely with your sentiments re. gpbikes. I think I have already had much more than my money's worth with the simulation. I would be more than happy to pay a yearly subscription of £50 to fund its development. It would be money very well spent imo. I would do it willingly with a big smile on my cheeky face.

So there!

Ratio of "kids on facebook" to "core gamers and enthusiast" is likely 100 to 1. So the discussion is not even on the table.

IMO there are only a few sites where input should be observed.

I don't feel the console community offers much at all in terms of feed back as its all about who can beat who and how badass you are.

The Xboxlive community is the worst!

Yes, but your goal and their goal is not the same.
You want a game that suits you (and me, and others here), while they want a game that sells a lot: so if they have to make a facebook interface in their game in order to sell a lot, they will do it.

I agree.

The problem is MotoGP is like a beautiful woman that the mainstream console market treats like a filthy whore.

MotoGP should be treated with the utmost respect! There are plenty of shitty sport game titles they can consolize...
