They finally released the offline mode for The Crew 2 but what a deception it is, without a doubt it was evident that Ubisoft would have failed this as they fail everything they do / touch. - BattlEye still is required to play (even the offline part of the game), remove it at least for the offline part then you'll get a lot of points. - Season pass not working offline unless you go online and export the savegame but …

The Crew 2 had the right idea with its open-world motorsport playground and mix of cars, boats, and planes, but it never quite sticks the landing. The world feels empty and repetitive, progression drags, and most events blur together rather than offering memorable moments. While there’s occasional fun to be had switching between vehicle types, the loose handling and lack of depth make it hard to stay invested. Not a …

Finally — Ubisoft with a W. The Crew 2 has just added an Offline Mode, and it’s honestly the best thing that’s ever happened to the game. When you launch it, if you’re connected to the internet, you can choose between Online or Offline Mode. If you’re not connected, it just boots straight into Offline automatically. Transferring your progress is super easy too, once you’re in Offline Mode, there’s literally a button …

The Crew 2 is one of those games you launch “just to play for a bit” - and suddenly it’s 3 a.m., you’ve been racing for hours, and you genuinely don’t understand where the time went. The sheer scale of the game is insane. The whole USA as your playground, switching between cars, bikes, boats, and planes whenever you want - it never stops feeling cool. One minute you’re drifting through city streets, the next you’re …

The Crew 2 still delivers in 2026. I played this game for years. The huge USA map is unmatched and perfect for cruising, exploring, and making dumb memories with friends — which is exactly why I love it. The driving physics are kinda bad at first, no denying it, but once you get used to them they become their own kind of fun, almost arcade‑smooth in a weird way. Years of updates left the game packed with cars, …

Contacted support they wont help at all. needs a CD key / Activation code when i have owned this game for 3 years! and i have logged just fine in the past. But now it says i don't own this game?? How does that make since. Ubisoft support doesn't care what so ever. game was fun when i played it and i want to play it but need a code to play TF I was NEVER give one.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Crew 2 is not a bad game; you just need to understand what it is. It’s an arcade racer probably the most arcade one you can find. I’d even say that some Need for Speed titles feel more realistic than this. I was mainly comparing it to Forza Horizon 4. I decided to install both at the same time and play a bit of TC2 and FH4. In the end, Forza 4 appealed to me much more. It doesn’t have planes or boats, which for me is actually a plus - I play these games to drive cars. Another…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →7000 sq. KMs, takes 40 minutes from New York to Los Angeles! Rating: 9/10 Basically, vast size of Map + vast variety of Races + vast number of Vehicles = Crew 2 Absolutely humongous map of a scaled down version of US - from Las Vegas to San Francisco, there is so much to discover! It has every type of race you probably know: from Street race to Off-road, air, water, & all. Dirt bikes, monster trucks, hovercrafts, speedboats... 16 disciplines, to be precise! I liked country music but there…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I honestly can’t recommend this game at all. I bought The Crew 2 expecting a fun open-world racing experience with cars, boats, and planes. The gameplay looks good, the map is big, and the concept is interesting. But none of that matters if you can’t even play the game. The biggest issue? Login problems. It forces you to use Ubisoft Connect, and my account says it’s suspended. When I try again, it suddenly asks for an activation code/CD key. Why would I need an activation code for a game I…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Too shallow, terrible gameplay, clunky as hell UI. Its a good idea but terribly executed. Its pretty, but just plain not fun to play. I gave it a bit, but I can't see myself playing it again. The UI is terrible and clunky, and unintuitive. The races are somehow worse than an arcade racing game, while still feeling slow and a bit cheap. Also, why do I HAVE to have Battleye anitcheat running in a SINGLE player world? Why does this game take 10 legitimate minutes to open? Why does every cut scene…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No way to reset my progress after taking a break (1 year+), so I literally have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. Also has a 60fps cap which is ridiculous for a PC game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Crew 2 is quite fun especially because players who prefer one type of racing over the other can play that mode (ex. rally, drifting) without having to go for the others. Also, the map is very nice as it captures the United States beautifully, including landscapes, rivers, biomes and cities.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good: - Fun gameplay, really cool vehicle physics, dynamic. - lot's of content - really cheap. - free roam with banger soundtracks is chill, cool and relaxing. Bad: - Season pass which has a 20% permanent discount doesn't work offline so if you want to play offline (which anyways requires you to start BattleEye anticheat requiring online) get ready to grind. - Graphics are not 2018, look bland and average. Racing game so doesn't matter, gameplay is solid. - Flight controls in KBM are…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Crew 2's strong points are huge map and crazy variety of different events. On the other hand you've got terrible UI, unpleasant driving physics and average graphics. 6/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i mean ive spent hours in this game and it isnt very goonable but still fun to do other stuff but if your looking for gooning go play overwatch or something
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Crew 2 played a good amount of time on ps4 and it's still hold up, a nice improvement from the original the crew that gets a strong identity with the vehicle switch and variety that is not relegated to just the open world car game with the U.S map as much it was impressive at the time. my only real critique tbh is just that some disciplines are just added for the sake of adding more things could've done better. i suggest buying this game even just for the fact that you can share your cars…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Crew 2 tries to be an all-in-one racing experience — cars, boats, planes — but ends up failing at almost everything. The voice acting is bad, customization feels weak, and the UI is clunky. Driving doesn’t feel good either: cornering, turning, and general car handling are terrible, like the vehicles have no weight or traction. Planes and boats somehow manage to feel even worse, with awkward controls and no sense of speed or realism. The game looks decent from far away, but up close the…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ubisoft launcher is always a problem with Ubisoft games, but in this one it is particularly grim. The game does not successfully launch it so the game cannot be launched from Steam without first having to find an install of Ubisoft Connect and running it (as administrator??) to be able to even launch the game. Control customization is broken. There are separate control sections for cars, boats, and planes, however paradoxically they are linked such that when I try to change my shift up/shift…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Ah, Ubisoft. You have done it again. Steam claims the game is running beautifully, yet my screen remains completely blank. Meanwhile, Ubisoft Connect forces a manual login every single attempt, entirely ignoring the "keep me logged in" option. A truly marvelous test of my patience. Every single time I face an issue like this, it's Ubisoft. What a shame.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The Crew 2 is honestly really good. The map is massive and there’s always something to do, just driving or flying around is fun on its own. With the whole server situation no longer being an issue, it feels way better knowing the game will stick around.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got this game bundled with Motorfest for a dollar. Just turn off TAA in the config files and you're good to go. Best one dollar I ever spent. Runs 60fps at 1080p native on my 4 year old cheap ahh gaming laptop.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Hell no, I cannot recommend. Standard Ubisoft Connect bs + it doesn't work on Linux because of BattleEye anticheat which is there for whatever reason.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →English: After completing all the achievements, I can say that it was the most stressful game but the most fun at the same time. -Rivals are crazy. No matter how fast you go, they can catch up with you. But it's not that bad either. -The map is huge and full of activities. There are so many that I haven't even completed half. -The fact of being able to handle by air, sea and land is what makes this game unique. Even my sister who doesn't play video games loved it. I was terrible with…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I purchased this game with Motorfest when they promised offline: what I didn't expect was some seriously fun arcade racing from both titles. What I also didn't expect was an actual offline mode. The game is really fun, with a plethora of options and a massive open world, good graphics and stability, and they actually did what they said they were going to. Very sweet. Ubisoft is still a dumpster fire but thank you Ivory Tower for going through with severing the invasive always online…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I haven't played many racing/driving games, as far as I'm concerned this is a great game, I'm having lots of fun with it. They recently published an update featuring an offline mode so that the game will still be playable when the servers shut down which is great news The only issue I can see is that it takes quite a long time to load the game
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →ts game so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ass why tf do the bots get perfect ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ handling while i get the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing u can ever see even though i have the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ car
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was in the middle of the street and suddenly turned into a plane. I don’t know why but the game did. Thanks Crew, you always get me.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're coming to The Crew 2 expecting a deep narrative or ultra-realistic racing simulation, you'll be disappointed. But if you're looking for a massive, unadulterated open-world playground where the core loop is simply having fun with a staggering variety of vehicles, this game is a gem.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's 2025 and we still have to login Ubisoft account just to play this game then why have this game on steam in the first place? Customer service at Ubisoft is practically dead, no one there to help you if you ever forget your account details or worse lose your account. Come on man, y'all can do better than this..
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Can't start the game at all. Unlinking accounts on ubisoft, running in compatibility mode, reinstall, verifying game files all don't work. Hard to believe this is still a problem in 2025
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Another ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game with no soul, please do not waste your time on this money grab just buy any of the forza games they will literally be better than this dog ass and i know your reading this Lukas and maybe Audrius soo chill
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game has given me many of the best memories with my friends. The atmosphere, especially during the rain, feels incredibly unique and immersive. There are moments when I find myself simply driving alone, lost in thought and enjoying the calmness it brings. For me, this game is more than just a game. It’s an experience filled with memories, emotions, and unforgettable moments.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's cool to play in the evening, just 4 relax. But completing the game with 100% achievements is very boring tbh
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I had zero expectations for The Crew 2 and the game just blew me away. It's very rare when I try 100%-ing a game, but I did it with this one. I've been craving sooooo much for another good Forza Horizon game after 4... that The Crew 2 was a good substitute. In many aspects it's better than Forza since not every fence is breakable. I know this sounds dumb, but having so much destructible environment in Forza means that there is no guidance, you can just fly though the fields and reach your…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not bad at all just try it, maybe this game not the best, but it better than another ♥♥♥♥ arcade expensive game. not best like forza series, assetto corsa, NFS heat, and another peak game. but its better than Burnout, Carx series, and etc for the price so this worth to buy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Incredible game and it feels very relaxing to explore the whole of USA (miniature version) It is a visual treat and peak of gaming, others may feel different about it, but I personally enjoy it a lot. We have a lot of races, vehicles, and events, plus an amazing Photo Mode that I need to explore further. Here are a few examples: 1) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3576995529 2) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3568001576 Story is…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the game it self is not super fun but the open world map is a game changer, it still needs some work on the graphics quality and physics.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Reviewing every game i've 100%ed No. 7: The second most playtime with 300+ hours on my steam account. I fricking love The Crew and The Crew 2. Me and a good friend always used these games just for driving around the US and talking all night long. Its just a game with so many differnet Tasks but also being so chill that you can just talk with your buddys while playing. The Crew 2 is essentially a giant playground for anything fast – cars, motorcycles, boats, and planes. The story is secondary,…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this with 98% discount in 2024. Honestly, this is the only driving game I have in my library as of now, and i really enjoy it. There are thousands of different cars with endless modifiactions and you can even create your own paint patterns. Despite the crew having a beautiful scenery, songs, rides and missions, I wouldn't reccomend buying it for the original full price, because it doesn't really match Forza's and others' driving sim games level. But if there is a huge discount, don't wait…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this "game" isn't so much a game, as it is a UI designers wet dream, and a BAD wet dream at that. the entire screen at all times is completely FLOODED with useless "dynamic" visuals which are more distracting than anything. the driving is absolutely abysmal and NFS most wanted(2012) feels like it's a racing sim compared to this game. seriously, no car on EARTH, controls like these moronic devs seem to think, because instead of steering, you're essentially just rotating the vehicle around a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's pretty fun. A LOT of content to grind. Ubisoft added the offline patch that's why I gave it a positive review. If you plan on buying it, get it on sale.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this is the first game in my life that made me feel and show pure physical disgust. I've only played it for a few minutes, and it was more than enough to make me hate it. luckily, I bought it at a discount, this game should be free-to-play at best
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its a ubisoft game with ubisoft launcher!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →BEST MAP ever made in racing game ever ! I want crew2 like map in every racing game and the races with so many shortcuts. Only thing missing is a lobby for more than 4 players maybe upto 10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Still one of my favorite racing games because of the sheer variety. Are u thinking of adding space themed races? Like space station or space track, or different planet track. With less gravity etc?
