If you already have the Crew base game and Season Pass, the Calling All Units DLC will include the Wild Run as well. Sweet deal. But a bummer for all that bought WR before.

I don't know if this new DLC will save The Crew.

Their reluctance to fix the bad bike physics (dirt/raid) and stupid returning bugs are annoying.

Also wheel support for Fanatec wheels is gone. And no reaction from the community manager on questions. :roll:

I did Summit events this morning and within 1 hour after doing most events once or twice, i was already near Top100, even if i still have to do 3 Crew events.
The new batch of players certainly has not brought quality to The Crew. And most will move on quickly when a new free game arrives.

Maybe it went to their heads the 9MLN copies sold. There are certainly not 9m players in the Crew.
If there are 5000 player doing Summit events, it is all.

They simply try to sell as much new DLC as possible. If it is enough to continue developments on The Crew remains to be seen.

The reluctance to deal with cheaters of all kinds has turned many good players away from the game.
And they fail to recognize the abuse of in-game flaws to set high scores. Deadly for a good competition.

So even if they do deal with those, using external tools to cheat, the in-game glitch abusers still ruin every Summit.

As long s they don't fix the reset button abuse, crash cam abuse, clutch cheat and lag switchers, any chance on fair play is gone.
Players like myself like a good competition. Not act like these idiots with their game abuse behavior, who are acting like it is cool to do so.

Current leaderboards are filled with losers who try to rig every event in The Crew. Too bad really, but it seems to be a plague with all online games.

I will only continue to do events to get the free Cars and Bikes. But the play for fun level has dropped dramatically in The Crew

I have my doubts if The Crew can come back from this, sure a cheesy police gamemod could buy them a few weeks, but long term FH3 is nailing their coffin shot, so the Frenchies better figure something out quickly or The Crew will suffer the exact same fate as TDU2 did which would be a shame.

But it is not like the community haven't tried to push the game in another direction, but apparently they don't care enough to fix it.

so if Forza Horizon 3 plays out it will replace The Crew, so RIP The Crew.

I agree with you in all terms. I will get this expansion for lower price (g2a.com, etc) and I hope they fix the game physics to favor clean and fair competition. For example: this Summit TA with Zonda F, I'm forced to do some wallride to get a good time. On the other hand I have my eyes put on FH3, so as soon as I get a new powerful PC I'll get it.

So this is a pretty cool thing they're doing!
As many of you will know, The Crew’s second anniversary is coming up in December this year! As we prepare to celebrate this important milestone, we can’t help but think about everything that has been accomplished since we first revealed the game, and how much we’re grateful for our incredible community.

That's why, to mark the occasion, we’d like to reward all the players that have been with us since it all started!

As such, everyone who played The Crew in December 2014 and January 2015 will receive the new Lamborghini Huracán for free, as well as an exclusive 2 year anniversary sticker!

Image

The reward will be pushed to all eligible players at the launch of Calling All Units, on the 29th of November. Just log in once the expansion is live and the vehicle and sticker will automatically be unlocked on your account.

Please note that players do not need to own Wild Run or Calling All Units to be eligible.

Thank you so much for your support over the last 2 years, and we’ll see you on the roads!

The annoying this is that I don't think I played the game in December/January because I was at school! Or maybe I was on break at the time. I don't remember, so I guess I'll find out if a Huracán appears in my garage!

Community Take Down Challenge

15/11/2016 05:00 PM

Greetings!

With the 29th of November fast approaching, we thought it was about time to up the stakes for our next community challenge!

That’s right, we’ve got 60 The Crew Calling All Units keys up for grabs!

This time we’re harking back to an iconic Racer/Cop face-off in 510 history, with the Fake Out Community Challenge that will pit you against a prison bus with a hefty Police escort.

The challenge is open to all The Crew players, and you’ll find it in Los Angeles from the 16th to the 22nd of November. We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for the top 20 players each on PS4, Xbox One and PC!

The keys will be sent as soon as the challenge finishes. Please note that it’s crucial you have your game account linked to Uplay to participate, so that we can contact the winners.

Best of luck 510s, and we’ll see you in L.A!

The Crew Team

It's nearly 7PM and The Crew is still not working, IvoryTower failed big time on this release, but atleast their trailer is good :lol:


Hello everyone,

As you know, with the release of The Crew Calling All Units an extended maintenance was scheduled and is still ongoing today.

While the game itself doesn’t generate any issues (hence why Xbox One players are able to access it), an unhealthy service on PS4 and PC was identified during this maintenance.

Our team has been working on improving the quality of this service, and will be bringing the game online in the best condition for all players as soon as possible.

We currently estimate the game to be back online within the next two hours.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding.

The Crew Team
