Was the last Crew game a success?

 

[R3TRO]

I didn't realize people actually played those.

 

[adamsapple]

With contingencies for potential lawsuits, no doubt.

 

[Sephimoth]

Aren't these the games they shutdown servers for a few years after release? If so why would people trust 'em not to do the same?
May be confusing it with another series...

They are still chasing after Forza Horizon. They just saw how much it sold on PS5 and they want part of the pie, yet they still don't understand what is wrong with the Crew.

What is wrong with the Crew though.
It aims to be a casual racing game, how have they fucked it up. (I have not played it)

Ubisoft Job Ad Suggests Rumored Crew Sequel Now In Development; Points To AI-Powered Level Design - Clawsomegamer

Ubisoft Ivory Tower is now hiring for what seems to be another entry in The Crew franchise, asking for developers experienced with AI use.

clawsomegamer.com

The team at Clawsomegamer has spotted a job listing for an unannounced project at Ubisoft Ivory Tower, which suggests that the third major entry in The Crew IP has now begun development.

Ubisoft Ivory Tower is currently hiring a Senior Level Designer for an unannounced project. The studio has historically worked exclusively on the The Crew franchise for Ubisoft, and with recent rumors from reliable sources stating that the next Crew game has already been greenlit, it seems the team has begun working on this project.

Looking at the qualifications section of the job listing (translated via ChatGPT and Google Translate) also reveals something interesting. The qualifications ask for experience with AI-driven level design, more or less confirming that the next Crew title will make use of the technology for its level design.

"Solid experience in Level Design, ideally on AAA productions involving AI-driven Leven Design."

Either The Crew needs to get to the quality level of the FH series or the FH series needs to add in boats, motorcycles, and planes. Just please let one of those happen.

I have played them and it depends on who you ask. I really like the arcadey style of the Crew 2 and 3, but people want things to go back to the Fast and Furious 1-style of game that it was in Crew 1, with movie plotlines and all.

 

[pqueue]

yeah no. they fucked us over with the last release.

no way i would ever buy it from them again.

They started strong with Motorfest, then it all went down hill with the lackluster events, wonky multiplayer lobbies and too little online racing variety. It was always the same old 2 or 3 courses every two races. It got stale fast. It doesn't help that the map lacks variety. Oh, and the parts upgrade is still ass.
