Awsome

Nice game, is cool to figure out how to make gearboxes for a mad v12. Really nice tech progression tree when you learn how it works. As a free game this is 10/10 no adds, no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ and no pay2win crap.

As close to playing with Lego as it gets.

Fun game!

Sad the killing this game along with the studio, should give everyone a refound due to this Early Access never gonna be a game.

Felt like a small mod for South America thats underproduction so 15€ is kinda steep price for a "full DLC".

There are some good stuff
+ Some of the focus paths are kinda cool, where you can effect the outcome of the global world stage.
+ Also nice to focus on South America due to it kinda get forgotten in 90% of all normal games, even tho this did't really change anything in a game.

Now why its a No for me... After reading the Patch note were they tried to justify themselves it just left a bad taste in my mouth, they did't really get why its a 30% negative rating and did not addres the reason why, so I hope my languish is not rude so they don't just clump me in to that "group".

There are alot of bad, and most of them is just everything feels like a rip off from a mod called: Unión y Libertad, so to add focus trees to Brazil, Argentina and Chile, and smaller ones to Paraguay and Uruguay, where they share a big part of it (ecco) is just sad.
Felt like they got rushed to a deadline and just made shortcuts, if you gonna do South America do all of it or focus all in on the countries you pick, when it is 3 big + 2 smaller focus trees thats not to much to ask.

And if there were any change to the overall gameplay like a new mechanic ect. then i could overlook the lackluster focustrees, but its even skipped alot of mechanics that was used in the last 3 DLC's countries for the 5 they picked and this is just a "Focus tree update" nothing more, so any modder can make this and do, but far better.

I would say if you planning on buying this, YOU CAN SKIP THIS ONE and if you wanna play any of the countries this DLC change get a mod.

3.5/10
+:
1:I like the race structure where you have to put up money for races, also that some events give more Heat then other, makes it a bit of planning each day on what raceses to do first or at all.
-
1: The story, Its just weak, alot of cringe and you don't really care about youre character due to his/her pesona is a douchebag with the most cringe responses I have ever heard in a game, bring back Ryan Cooper, keep the protagonist silent or write a good story. Main characters are also real bad, everything sounds and feels like a game for "THE COOL KIDS".
2: The drifting, So they added cartoon smoke when you drift (No problem there) but to push this new effect you can't make a turn without drifting, drifting in a street race drops way more speed then you gain doing a drift but alot of corners you have to do it.
3: Events: So this is a problem in the start, due to cash is hard to comeby and you mainly gonna have 1-3 cars before getting to week one showdown you are forced to change your tuning for youre car for drift, takedown events and then turn in back for normal events. It also reward you of having 2-4 cars, 2 of the highest class and 2 for the lower class where the two is one race car and one drift car.
4: The Car rank system: I just feel this is lazy, would rader have higher priceses for upgrades then bottlenecking a car so it don't go up to S when you are in A+. Stop stealing Forza stuff and do a NFS game.
5: Resets; I feel that this is a good thing in it self just kinda get punished with the game it self, due to one small mistake can be the diffrence from nr1 or last, and a mistake can be something you kinda don't have any controll over, like a cop or opponent crashes in to you so you get a reset, or in drift / takedown events a jump just buggs out and you lose your combo.

Other notes:
I feel the cars feel sluggish, just finished Pro street for the 50th time and the cars and modes in that game just feel 100 times better, Im not saying the handeling of cars are bad, but it just feels boring some times.
Drift raceses: Just feel wierd, it not drifting, more of taking a corner use nos to the checkpoint and don't loose your combo, it should be a drift race where you need to keep your drift going around a track.
The music: Feels sad that its now 100% trap music, like some songs are okey, fun that there are songs in other languages, but what happen to the mix?

All in all, its a modern NFS game, nothing changed from the last really. Would be nice if they went back and focused on what worked in the past, and drop the Agenda driven story race game and make it a fun car game of the mid 2000.

Scratched my itch only wish it was more.

Solid and fun pussels that was polished.

2h of free fun, only wish they would take my money they deserve it.

Good game

Good and fun! A small game that feels great and smooth AF! Good job
