RiMS Racing

RiMS Racing

This game makes Ride4 look like Roblox without the fun.

I’ve only played through the different bikes on a trackday type session, and I’m already astonished. The sensation of being on a real, overwhelmingly fast machine is second to none. Not even the best car simulation matches the sensation of speed of Rims.

First of all, I assume that the people reading this review will want a serious simulation, and will be playing in one of the ‘cockpit’ cam modes. Its not an arcade racer, be warned.

Why is it so good? Well, for a start the bikes have a heft to them that makes them feel like real, weighty machines, not the lightweight nonsense of Ride4. The steering feels grippy and correct, but is genuinely terrifying when you drop it to a steep angle on a sharp turn. It was actually shocking when I pushed it over hard on a chicane - the change of your weight from side to side felt real to me, so much so that I was disorientated for a moment. No other bike game has achieved that sense of immersion. You can really get in the flow.

RiMS Racing is a game unlike any other motorcycle title we have been given in past few years. It has features that make it unique. Thats why it is hard to compare it to Milestone games, GP Bikes or TDR. One of the main focus was set to attention to bike details and mechanics, with possibility to manually mount and dismount parts, allowing to upgrade and customise your ride. Additionaly each part can be damaged or used up, what requires to buy new stuff and replace the old ones to keep the motorbike in top condition.

all in all currently played 2 hours, had a bunch of fun.

I’m hoping for some lag fixes and keybind editing possibilities

Edit : since this comment , a bunch of stuff has been fixed : keyboard layout is now something you can change inthe settings, the lag has been fixed, loading times have been optimized, camera controls have been fixed (for working on the bikes, paint booth still is wonky)

disregard those in the cons !

More details :

Pro’s

its fun

if you like bikes, you’ll like this

a plus if you like to tinker and know a bit of what goes where

Update: Feb 2021

Since the developers did a major revamp including a gazillion customised parts and colours I find playing the game tedious. No longer am I able to simply take parts off and on, paint them or build my own bike I find it extremely annoying having to memorise part numbers and colours. When I use to blaze through a repair now its a head beating against the wall experience that has ruined the fun for me. I did have fun with it initially but now I rarely play it.

I really enjoyed this game especially since I got rid of my own bike last year. This game is setup very similarly to other mechanic simulator games like CMS. Problematic parts are shown in red when it diagnostic mode and show as rusty in the regular view. Camera angles are pretty good. There are a few instances where you’ll select a part to re-assemble and the camera thrusts your viewpoint forward, past the area you are working in requiring a slight zoom-out or downward pan.

Everything considered, and believe me I could write A4 pages and A4 pages of text on the subject, but I won’t bore you with the details, I’M LOVIN' IT !!

(BUILD 1.0.80.02 introducing the 1000cc Superbikes into the game with updated physics)

A GP500 for the 2020s? (an Assetto Corsa for 2 wheels?) (Finally? ) (Bloody, freakin' Finally?) I HOPE SO!

Please give it you very best shot MadCow s.r.l. ! I, for one would be, eternally grateful if you can deliver on this.

I have been playing this game for the last year and a half as a long time alpha tester. I saw the astonishing evolution of the game in the last few months and I know well its potential as a bike simulator which reproduces the physics of a two-wheeler while remaining well enjoyable through a game pad.

Even if they are a small team, I saw the commitment of developers and their politics of development based on users' feedback. I can only imagine how good the game will be in a few months with the contribution of the community.

Great and currently unique concept, though still a bit buggy. My biggest issue is with the frame rate though, as I personally got a bit motion sick with this.

Definitely worth it even at the current state, but with a bit more polishing will become that much more enjoyable.

This game is quite strange but enjoyable, I would like to master it soon to explore the whole worlds. It runs better while holding right click so it becomes its own challenge trying to hold right click while steering. either way for a dollar I am satisfied with my purchase, hope from more from flex etnerainment

It is worth that you buy this game on sale.

  • Is has some bugs. After some missions, if you try to replace the footrests, you can´t, then can´t advance. The only way is not repairing the footrests in the missions ahead.

  • Only one type of motorbike, chopper.

  • Music is cool, but repetitive.

  • You are obligated to paint the repaired parts. The first time is just curious. Then is horribly and stupidly repetitive, you feel dumb having to paint the repaired parts again and again.

  • Average graphics and I feel it has a bad optimization, as doesn´t run smoothly.

Anyone who tries this game all I can say is it’s boring and slow, and very unexciting. I went into it thinking the game would be better. I kept it hoping that there might be some improvements to make this game actually worth playing and that just proved to be my biggest mistake in the world. I regret buying it and wish I return what I’m stuck with but can’t. For anyone looking at it, I would recommend seeing if there’s a demo available first so you can try it out before spending your money on it, that’s a much better idea.

Hardcore MX fans will love this. Controls felt strange compared to Reflex but once you’ve given them 30 minutes, you’re laughing. Would recommend to any MX fan!

EDIT

Having played this a lot more now, I’m going to write a half decent review.

Firstly, I will go onto the base game. As you can see the game is officially licensed, and as such contains most if not all riders, teams, and tracks of the Motocross Grand Prix. Bike sounds (MX2 and MX1) and physics have been faithfully re-created (I’m playing with ‘pro’ physics enabled) as have the decals and gear etc. The game plays very well, and any fan of the late MX vs ATV games will feel right at home with this having had to deal with the goon riding of ‘Alive’ (Although Reflex was outstanding imo).

MXGP is a dirtbike simulation removed from the slightly more arcade MX franchise from THQ. It draws from the actual sport as far as the career.

One would think that after making Car Mechanic 2018 and then coming out with the new version 2021 to fix the issues of the first one, would have taught you something, but no. You for some dumb reason started from scratch here and it has the same issues as the Car version of 2018, but worse! you have a home run in the Car version 2021, so do yourself a favor and make this Motorcycle one run like the 2021 Car version and you will have something here. The fact that I feel like I will get see sick from how it sways and glitches up, is just horrible. Not being able to use my game controller instead of just mouse and keyboard is stupid when I have the option and it works in Car 2021. I get you are a different developer, but same gaming company that makes the other, so just not sure why I have to hunt tiny bolts on screen instead of just being able to unscrew them all with the hold of a button like other game. Just a strain on the eyes and makes the game slow and crappy. I get it should feel like a new game, however the game play on the Car 2021 is just tops and should have crossed over to this one for easy of use and flow from other. I am not asking for a refund yet, waiting to see if you can fix this horrible game that should have been easy since you already made the car one that works. Get your stuff together before you lose customers. Thanks.

i think this game has a lot of potential and it teaches basic mechanics about motorcycles and i recommend this game for anyone wanting to learn a little bit about bikes and how they work, although from someone that rides and sometimes works on bikes i’d love to see a few things added as such:

a better way to drain oil as sucking it out isn’t that realistic as theres usually a drain bolt underneath the engine to drain the oil out.

adding oil filters to the engines.

adding fork protectors to protect the fork legs as seen on most dirtbikes.
