Where to begin, I only played for a short amount of time, but in that time here is what went wrong.

First, its requires Ubisofts stink launcher, yuck.

Then, it would not launch, at all, no error, just won't launch. I spent some time troubleshooting on Google and found you must exit out of Steam completely, not have it running at all, and launch through the Ubisoft launcher (yuck), it would then restart Steam and the game would open.

Once in the menus, I notice all the button prompt icons for my Xbox Controller are broken and you don't know what buttons you meant to be pressing.

Once racing in the tutorial, the button prompts are still broken, so while the game is running you through how to play and teaching the controls, you have to guess what you are doing.

Next I decide to alter the settings because it looks terrible and the racing was sluggish. I set everything to max and it still looks terrible and the FPS is super sluggish. This is because the FPS is hard capped, no matter what, to 60 FPS, but it feels super ugly to ride, not smooth at all.

Then I notice the textures, they often just won't load, or pop in right next to you as you race. If you restart at a checkpoint (which you do a lot) the textures then reload in front of you. Yuck. I have a RTX 4080 and latest CPU with 32GB DDR5 Ram and the game installed on a super high speed NvME Samsung SSD, its not my rig.

I then restarted the game hoping it would fix some issues, closing the game made Steam literally crap the bed, it hard crashed with a error I have never seen in my years of using Steam. I finally load up again and all the issues remain.

Lastly, even on my high end PC, often the loading times into races would get stuck and take 1 minute or more, I think it was something to do with the online connection loading ghost racers to compete with.

Even if all those other issues were not present, the 60 FPS cap and sluggish feeling alone is a deal breaker for me even for the sale price of $6.50

Refunded. Terrible port, stay clear.
