Whats wrong with Generations on PC?

Its the best version of the game. Optimized very well compared to most PC games, and the massive number of mods make it beat the console versions by miles.

Unplayable. Starts ignoring input after about 10–20 minutes, tried with three different computers and around twelve different controllers, as well as keyboard. Have also tried the hotswapping mod. Not to mention the game itself only has Sonic playable and perhaps the worst story in a 3D Sonic game.

That controller problem is just strange. I might have had something similar to this happen in another game, but its been so long that I can only guess the solution I used.

Having only one character is a decision, but I think it works well enough there. Story-wise, its the usual Colors story with writers who got their knowledge from the characters from looking them up on Wikipedia. That probably explains a lot about the low quality of 2010+ game stories xD. At least those two writers arent coming back anytime soon.

I don't have the issue with any other game, just Generations. And I suppose Generations is the only game where only Sonic playable makes sense.

I can try guessing, but I dont even remember what game I had that problem in. Maybe check your Steam controller settings and only checkmark the one controller type instead of multiple? Instead of having PS4, Xbox, and Switch on at once you only pick one.

But I loved Need for Speed Undercover. I used to play it "differently".

I'd try and get as many cops chasing me as possible and to disable as many as possible.

One time I broke the game as it tried sending to many cops after me and the count overflowed making them all disappear.

PC version.

That game is actually the worst racing game i have ever played. compared to all the previous NFS games it is extremely dull and downright broken at times. NFS Undercover is an actually bad game in my opinion, especially since i really liked most NFS games up until Underground 2.

You're a person after my own heart. That's something I thoroughly enjoy doing too.

I used to have great fun when I got back into gaming heavily, with Driver on the PS1. Putting the game into the "survival" like mode where you just keep getting cops relentlesssly going after you. That was awesome, as you'd have the best fun going full tilt to get some space between you and enough cops would spawn. Then handbrake, turn around and wait for the torrent of cop cars wildly being thrown at you - landing in trees and so on.

If enough hit you, they would catapult you out of the game.

I loved that.
