Crew Motofest

[nitesh.dey.2014]

Why Steam does not have Crew Motofest...??? The gameplay is Beautiful....and it is well optimized...I have tried the Trail version...and very light game to play at ultra settings...

Release exclusive on Epic & Ubisoft store for 1+ year.

If you ever wonder Why? Same goes as PS5 games, they are made exclusive forever on playstation store, never PC port. Customer will automatically buy PS5 just for the game.

So that's other Steam competitor will not die, because they have family to feeds too.

families to feed... .
some companies are getting financially damaged by doing the epic "1 year" exclusive thing...

waiting a year makes you think about how crappy they treat their steam customers...

steam customers are people too...

[SecretAgentKiiN 特务健]

As a Steam user perspective, you're right, Steam customers are people. You can continue wish to see other competitor fall, and then cheer for it, just because they are not on your side.

As a 3rd party perspective, both of them are people too, we have to treat them equally. Usually let them to have a fair competition to make a stand in the market.

Same goes to sibling argument, we cannot expect mommy & daddy only loves our-self more than sibling. Our parent only educate us to earn victory in a peaceful way.

Hope you can understand, everyone fight hard to earn money in the market, in the real world.

not sure what customer focus has to do with hate....

[SecretAgentKiiN 特务健]

You're not alone. The same topic discussion started on 15 Sep 2023 just next to the topic you created. You can find the result you want at there.

Hate?

You can see how is the community respond to this topic. Mostly reveal more wrong-doings from ubisoft, which arouse hates.

* Their server issue
* Game performance issue
* Unresponsive tickets
* They lie to customer about deleting account

Mostly not related to the question in the discussion topic. But this is how community will answer.

already have the ubisoft launcher... whata i care. bought it an added to steam. of course i have to have the ubi connect doodad running also.

bought it on xbox and played for a day then bought it on Pc the next day.
and when I played it on Pc, its same game, same cars, avatar, progress, monies, rewards etc. but different player names.
and its limited to 1920x1080 on Pc .. cos crossplay with consoles.

Yearly subscriptions are the bright idea that has doomed many a gaming company...

Ubisoft recently gloating about Motorfest's success:

The game is the highest rated title in the franchise and had the best first week for the franchise in terms of total unit sell through, overall consumer spend, and season pass adoption rate

Funny how they often pull that marketing nonsense just because they can, they always word it in a way that gives no specifics, and makes it seem like they're doing just fine on PC without Steam, which is definitely not the case. Did it obtain the highest week sales for the franchise on console? Ubisoft Connect? without specifics, total unit sell through could mean any of those, either way, both could be true because not only has the gaming market grew considerably since The Crew 2 launched, but they also kept Motorfest off one of the biggest digital gaming storefronts in the world.

The fact that they gave no exact numbers tells me the game underperformed and this is their way of coping.

"Highest rated title in the franchise", but it's not released on the only platform with public reviews so who reviewed it ?

[Wolfsblut]

just wait for steam release.

The Crew: Motorfest only has 81 viewers on Twitch as of this post, that's actually tragic for a brand new AAA release, and it's not even a single player only game, this game needs multiplayer to survive. which is why it's absolutely foolish to keep it off Steam.

Not only does it harm the players who already bought the game elsewhere, but by the time it comes to Steam, the player base will be gone and the cycle will repeat itself, the few people who buy it here will likely know it's not a brand new game, and aren't going to stick around without an active player base, I don't know why Ubisoft keeps doing this, Riders Republic suffered the same fate.

slow growing...

i wont get motorfest til its on steam.. so i dont really
watch motorfest vids anymore.. but others might..

Idk, Thing is, you need Ubisoft's crummy launcher anyway, even if it was on Steam so why not buy it there if you have any interest at all in the game. At least thats the way I see it. If it was only on Epic, yeah I'd not touch it with 20 foot pole.
