3/29/2023 0 Comments Rims racing update![]() Thank you Raceward and I look forward to following your next adventure! … Expand Considering this is Raceward’s first outing and they’re a small team, it’s incredible what they’ve achieved and I think we’re so lucky as both gamers and motorbike fans to have this to enjoy. I was cautiously optimistic on launch day but I can confidently say I am blown away with how good the game is. I’ve followed this game since it was announced a year ago and have really enjoyed how open and honest the dev team has been along the way. I can see myself spending hours on RiMS because not only does it do the simulation aspects well, but it’s actually really fun to play! I often find the more sim aspects there are in a game, the more rigid and stale it is, not the case here! On the realistic setting you can feel when you’re pushing the tyres too far through the vibration in the controller before you see any impacts on screen, it helps you feel in tune. ![]() Not just stock either, it changes with each one you swap out, I love it. From the early 00’s inspired intro kicking right off when you boot the game up to the electro charged beats pushing you faster and faster during your races, it’s intense! RiMS is also the first bike game EVER to nail the exhaust sound. I think, without realising it, this is something I really miss in other bike games. Then there are online challenges too which have proved very fun to compete against others times for a reward. Practise is like a time trial mode on all of the tracks and reverse modes, allowing you to change the weather snd road surface in each. However, the way the game intuitively let’s you experiment with tuning and then seeing each part come off and go back on again has inspired me to get stuck in! The career mode is lengthy and varied, really helping you bond with your chosen bike and learn to ride well, not just fast, otherwise your repair bills will rack up! Ive also enjoyed the other modes on offer. I’ve ridden bikes over half of my life now but have never dabbled with the mechanics. There are so many options here to really spec what you want. I love how you can completely strip your bike and build it back up with custom parts. ![]() So many things about the level of realism strike me which combined with the presentation and music form a very slick package. RiMS is what I’ve been waiting for since Tourist Trophy on the PS2 - something which takes the realism to the next level, the Gran Turismo (or Forza!) of the bike world! I’ve put in a good 10 - 15 hours now and I’m progressing well into the career mode.
