I spent over an hour on the weekend just riding my Indian Scout around the virtual world of the Crew, using the in game road markers and no gps while listening to my favourite tunes. Turn the in game music off, load up Pandora or another background music app, and turn off all the HUD elements in the game. On a side note – with the advent of background audio with the latest Xbox One dash this has opened up a new way to enjoy The Crew. This time, let us sell our additional parts for in game currency and allow us to buy houses and garages to show off our awesome car collection.Īs much as I love the original game and even what Wild Run had to offer I’m not convinced Calling All Units is worth your time, unless you have never played The Crew and buy the game with all the expansions included. I think it might be time for a proper sequel to come out soon. I can appreciate a lot of development time went into creating the fictional USA but with the latest expansion this game is just starting to show its age. This sort of business model does annoy me a little because it means the The Crew faithful (like myself) get nothing extra (apart from one car) for having to pay for Wild Run and Calling All Units separately. The reason for this is that buying Calling All Units gives you Wild Run for free. If you are wanting some fun cop vs racer multiplayer fun the expansion is also still worth grabbing if you already have the base game. If you’ve never played The Crew then getting the Ultimate Edition is definitely worth your time as you get the original game plus the two expansions. The cars used for police chases are pretty good. If The Crew: Calling All Units is in that category of games that gets the 4K improvements this game will look a hell of a lot better.
I’ve heard a rumour that Microsoft’s Project Scorpio will be trying to upscale a lot of games to 4K. Wild Run made the game look a lot better than the vanilla game and I was hoping that they were going to tweak it further in lieu of development kit improvements. As good as it looks on PC, it suffers a little on Xbox One and PS4 due to the lack of anti aliasing. What is missing from this expansion is there is was no further tweaking of the game engine. There are crates littered across the huge open world that the racers have to pick up (drive over) and then escape with, leading to smart loot prizes. Other players will get invited to join in the pursuit as well, which can lead to some fun and chaotic results. Like those games you get various abilities as a cop and racer and the main deal is to try as a racer is to get away from the increasing difficult cop presence. The multiplayer is a lot of fun though and hails back to the good ole NFS Hot Pursuit days in an open world.
