Do you like the idea of VRC, but dislike the lack of content, platforms, vehicle
options, and the ability to use usernames over your real name?
I need to stress that this is nothing as like vrc's simulation as this feels
more like a game, vrc's simulation is very sim like and it feels a lot closer to
the real thing.
I'm not knocking this game as it's still currently in early access, I was very
excited to see this existed. I played a lot of RealRace duratraxs rc
simulator/game and even the second one, I'm not new to rc simulators. I've
played great planes air rc simulator and again this is apples to oranges at this
stage.
I grabbed my vrc dongle so i could use my radio as the controller, the game
already has support for this which I thought was pretty rad. It plays really
well with the controller but again this doesn't feel anything like vrc.
I keep comparing vrc to this why? It's called RC Simulation 2.0, it's still very
early access and I'm very impressed with what they have so far. The user made
tracks, the variety of vehicles, car setups and challenges. It's a very good RC
game at the moment, I can't wait to see what this game turns into and will
update this review as time goes on. I would defiantly recommend this to a
friend.

I have had this for a month now, and I cant give it high marks for user-ability.
The difficulty level is far to advanced for a new user. I have the simulator
because I want to learn. This system does not let me do that. I can fly the
Microsoft 10 with out a problem. This sim just does not work for me.

As someone who has RC cars and a Helicopter you have done a good job on this I
know your still working on it so it would be nice to havw some trim controls
with the aircraft but again well done

Good game all around. As a simulator it is doing its job to simulate the Rc
world. I have messed around with the track editor and it is a strong feature of
the game and was a smart idea to put that in during the period of early access
when actual content is low currently.
Now for the dreded complaints, but wait lets first talk about what my complaints
are. My only things that I think needed improvement on in the game are things
that are fine to have when your game is in early access. The main one being a
lack of overall game options for configuring the game to work best, and thats
fine the creator is working on them so its not that big of a deal. So with that
being explained that I won't go into detail about my complaints because they
don't matter at this point of a new early access game.
Something I would love to see implamented is some kind of a driving tutorial.
just one level to help those new Rc drivers who this is their first time playing
around with a realistic Rc driving mechanics (like the sharp turning and the
quick accel). That and I think it would be cool if there could be a car editor
tool (not configuring the mechanics) but like creating bodies so you could have
that personalized look. That could be cool but I don't think that needs to be a
priority since I would rather see more polish and configurations of the base
game.
I give this game a 7/10 only because this game is early access and needs to be
worked on (something that is happening so I feel that when I review this again
later on that 7 will become a 9)

I was excited to find a simulator that didn't cost too much, then I found you
get what you pay for. Current state of the has awful physics/simulation mediocre
graphics, audio and interface work. This was the first steam game I have ever
had refunded.

I like this game now! At first when I bought it, it needed a lot of work.
Gameplay, physics, effects, and menus all were pretty rough. Recently, RC
Simulation 2.0 has really made itself a very formidable competitor to VRC PRO.
Here what you need to know about both these games. VRC Pro is more popular, has
more professionals on it, has more realistic physics, and has multiplayer races
available for everyone. The huge difference is that if you want all the tracks,
all the components, all the little fun accessories and in game items youre gonna
need to buy a pretty expensive monthly subscription. RC Simulation 2.0 beats it
in affordability, play around fun, bashing mode, availability of RC vehicles,
workshop items, and more casual feel to it. I love that now you can use the VRC
Pro transmitter adapter sold by VRC which allows you to hook up the reciever
from your actual RC car and bind it to a remote and play the video game with the
remote you use on your real life RC car! Thats the thing that I believe made RC
Simulation 2.0 a real competitor to VRC PRO which at a time was the only RC
Simulator game you could find. The things that RC Simulation 2.0 needs in the
future is continued upgrades to physics of the R/C vehicles and the tracks. It
also needs to get name brands behind the game such as Traxxas, HPI, Team
Associated, Losi, Axial, ProBoat, and other brands so that we can have actual
models of the R/C cars we love in this game. I for one would love to see a Team
Associated b5 or b5m buggy replace the generic 1/10 2wd buggy that I have been
whipping lap times with in this game. I would also love to see the edit vehicle
settings expanded to the point where you can use a painting program to paint
designs on your car and its body. I would also like to see the ability to modify
the shapes of the parts on the cars such as wing designs, body shapes, tire
patterns, decals, and scale accessories swapping for the crawlers. My message to
the creators of this game, Keep up the great work! Keep working on this game
until it beats VRC Pro out of the market! Get on the phone with R/C manufacturer
companies marketing departments and get some companies on board with making
licensed R/C products in the game. I definitely recommend this game!

RC simulation 2.0 is a solid, entertaining and promising game.
First of all, i felt in love with the track editor. Despsite the game in an
alpha, you can build detailed and complex tracks with easy intuitive tools. In a
few hours you can build tracks that looks like they were made like pro
developers.
Hard to believe ? I show the receipts on my Steam workshop, where you can
download my custom made tracks. Have a look !
Buggies, varied cars, drift cars, drones and boat, the game offers lots of
vehicle choices. I know RC 2.0's devs is currently working on vehicle setup. I'm
looking forward to this. The multiplayer has to be improved and probably will in
the coming months. You can already race against people online but only with
people from your country yet. The time trial is working tho and you can try to
beat your best laps on the official tracks and self-made community tracks.
Some of the thing that i'd like to see ingame:
- Being able to set more track check-points in the editor (currently 5 + the
finish line). This is not enough to create legit multiplayer races.
- With the global multiplayer, a global leaderboard with the lap times. (best of
all time, best of the week, of the day, etc)
- Water for Larry, he deserves it.

As an RC sim this is pretty amazing. Its EA and with that has the need for
tweaking and bugs to fix. The Dev seems to be very interested in forward
progress and has alot of plans to continue progress. RC cars to boats to quad
copters there is a lot to choose from. Making your own track or place to fly is
really cool. It is worth picking up now and for those that wait keep a close eye
out for the updates. I think this game will take off.

Only played a bit so far, but from what I've already experienced, combined with
the quick support from the developer:
PRO'S:
- Already a great sim for the true RC fanatic, eventhough it's still in it's
starting shoes, it is great fun.
- Physics engine seems to be well made and has great potential.
- Netcode seems great. (In the first hour I've tried some multiplayer (without
opening ports) and even with Europe>USA seemed quite good)
- Generally fun for all ages, especially when running over Larry :)
- Eventhough the content is few, already great variety in content.
- Sandbox/Track-Editor this is an option that stands out, it's already working
great and this also has great potential.
- Great controller support, any game like this should have it this way.
NEUTRALS / TIPS:
- Audio/Sounds, the voices are already quite well, but I do think the vehicular
sounds are up for improvement.
- More information in-game with the Track Editor. (It took me a while to figure
out the track needs all 5 checkpoints, for a lap to be a lap).
- For the Track-Editor to have an option to make long "strokes" of the same
terrain paint to make straight lines.
CONS:
- Staying really objective I can't see any cons.

at first i wasnt very impressed, but i soon realized the potential this game
has!
i spent 99% of my time, so far, on land. the pre set tracks are okay, but there
are some gems on the Workshop.
Rock Crawling is my favorite part. tuning cars to be able to take the fastest
line through a track is very awesome, thanks to being able to tune as you are on
the track!!!! (theres a lot of settings to fine tune) then you just get lost in
the laps with your touring car. the dirt tracks are great for jumps, that you
can level out with throttle control, with the SCTs, buggys, and trophy truck.
its all, so far, a very quick menu interface and very easy to switch cars,
tracks, and to different challenge modes. ...havent had time to create my own
map. looks pretty detailed, i'll pass for now.
cant wait to see custom bodys, or any real parts as settings modifiers; real
tires (branded), instead of the tire front/slide grip settings....
it is indeed an RC Simulation. i'm happy. can't imagine how the final realease
will make me feel.

Devotid aka kevin is always on the forum reading and getting feedback on what to
improve/implement, i´ve seen lot of changes, this game is no VRC, no sim at all
but a pretty fun game, fully customizable and with a ton of fun for a budget
price, go for it, you wont be dissapointed.

I must say for being in Early Access stage of development. This RC Sim is
packing a lot of potential, and I can't wait for what's too come.
For starters there's a lot of unique and new ways to be immersed into the
experience. From seeing bugs flying around lights at night in a realistic way,
to the day and night cycling, and the fact there's rag doll models for the other
randomly placed people. I think that those small yet inventive aspects could
really show the other more expensive RC sims how to be fun and entertaining
without the need of extensive experience in RC vehicle handling. I really can't
wait for what's coming up in the next set of updates, but I'm sure "Devotid"
will live up to their name and really provide something special for RC sim
players and just gamers alike.
Thank you for giving me my dream hobby back Devotid, and may all the future
updates and added content gleam in your efforts.

This game is not very life like, as you would expect, I feel like I am playing
on N64. The cars are pretty much just drive around with the arrow keys and like
an old Mario Kart game. The people in the game are even worse. Their graphics
and walking remind me of N64 characters as well. I need a refund.

Deffinitely a good start to an RC simulation game but it NOWHERE near to being a
finished game. Needs a lot of work still, the graphics are poor and you cannot
see the car if its on the far side of the track, the menu system is bad and the
physics are a good start but needs a lot of work. A few more years and lots
programing and you got youself a decent game.

I really want to like this game. It offers two wheel drive vehicles that VRC
does not offer. However, vehicle tuning is a nightmare and I could never get the
vehicles to perform the way they should. All of the tuning is done through
sliders and is difficult to use. Then when you finally get your vehicle somewhat
working and save the setup, it just doesn't. Even switching between tracks
reloaded the default set up for me and then when I try to load the setup I saved
it's just not there. The game is full release and should still be labeled early
access since it has not been updated since 2018. Don't waste your time. I'm
sticking with VRC and hoping they wise up and add 2 wheel drive.

Devotid did a remarkable job with this title.
It is still in Early Access and yet the controls and game mechanics are very
polished.
There is a decent selection of vehicles and an almost unlimited amount of tracks
thanks to Workshop support.
The addition of tuning to the RC's has added a great touch of realism and with
the ability to actually build from parts in the games future ,this title only
gets better and better.
The track editor is easy and powerful allowing for some great creations that can
be saved and shared to the Steam Workshop
If you like RC's ,racing games and track building this game is going to scratch
a lot of itches.
Highly recommend this game

I feel with time this game will develop into a fun arcade style R/C racer.
However, if you are after a simulator to practise R/C skills stick with VRC Pro.
The physics in this game are not realistic (yet?).
If you DON'T race real R/C cars, give it a go.
If you DO race real R/C cars, give it a miss.

I think that overall, at the moment, this is a pretty decent game. It's in early
access for a reason though...
It doesn't have AI, or enough players for good multiplayer, so your stuck doing
laps around the track solo. AI are currently being worked on at the time of this
review, but aren't in the game yet. You can still challenge yourself in "time
trials" though, aka qualifiers.
The cars are amazing. I think devotid could still add a "soft touch" setting for
controllers and keyboards, as it's difficult to control 2wd cars. Other than
that though, the cars look amazing, handle fairly realistically in my opinion,
(ordered a usb dongle today for the real test) and have SPOT ON suspension
movement.
The in game paint editor (at the time of this update) is crap in my opinion. I
can't even get my bodies to save, the brushes suck, everything is hard. Which is
why you can use photoshop! Thank you devotid! I can't even use photoshop though
(or save) because most of the painting files are missing... It works for most
people, but I'm one of the lucky few I guess. It's still a work in progress
though, so I'm hoping it's fixed in the next update.
The track editor... You can instantly tell this game was made in unity. You can
also tell that it's used in one of devotid's other games along with some of the
cars. I'm gonna be perfectly honest, I don't like it, but it's better then most
games. So be prepared to spend 3mins on a track layout, 1hr on barriers (if you
make em nice) and 20mins making and testing jumps. That's a medium sized track
without a driverstand, pits, trees, or track logic. So it works, but it takes
awhile.
The car setup is indepth, and hard, and complicated. But it's realistic, and if
you know what your doing, you can go from an 18.5 hotlap to a 17.9 hotlap with
more consistency. The setup not only changes the handling of the car, but it
also changes the look. For example, I was feeling ricey one day, so I got a 4x4
shortcourse truck, and I turned it into a slammed drifter with -15 camber, super
stiff suspension, and almost no traction on the tires. It actually looked like
it had -15 camber though. You can also do that with toe in/out, or make your
buggy have 4 wheel steering. The possibilities are close to endless.
Now this may sound like a mediocre game based on this reveiw, but devotid could
very well as a single developer make a better game then VRC-Pro. This game has a
huge amount of potential! Even though it's lost alot of players, buy this game
and stick around, cause if devotid keeps the updates up, we could have active
races in the future, a career mode, and a game that appeals to the arcade racer
who's never heard of a radio controlled car in his/her life. Or a training tool,
where a seasoned veteran can make his/her home track, and log unlimited laps on
it in a realistic, free, (other than initial game cost) and quiet environment.
