I know there is a few Milestone haters around and Milestone have released a few questionable titles. But I must say this is looking good, really good. To date we (me) are still waiting for the first bike sim/game to support VR , sadly no mention of VR here, so again it looks likes another bike sim/game with no VR, this of course does sadden me. I can not also help feeling, it is a huge lost opportunity for Milestone, I must say it confuses the hell out of me...but then I am no coder, maybe it is very difficult and time consuming to implement :confused::(

I will buy this title for sure, if things keep heading in the right direction and certainly looking forward to it :thumbsup:

Thank you Paul for another excellent review :thumbsup:
GP Bikes has VR support, and is a proper sim as well. Only issue is, no AI
 
I'm really hoping they fix the completely broken PP system from the 2nd game. Fed up of having a Diavel Carbon annihilate me on acceleration and top speed when on my Brutale 675, I can hold off most of the other 1000cc bikes but not that thing, or the Speed triple on tracks with any sort of long straight.

Oh and the cruddy bonus for adding laps, why on earth would I do a 4 lap race for just 10% extra credits when I can do 2 two lap races for almost 100% extra? Or 4 1 lap races for an even greater amount....give us incentive to go the longer races.

And Tire wear wouldn't go amiss , at least the option for it ...

totally agree, and per bike per track setup saving and the ability to have user setups as default. I'm fed up of the default understeery (but without the tucking(unless hard on the brakes)) front end. Bikes should be grippy as hell on the front and fun at the rear. More damping on the fronts to stop the "pogo" effect of wheelies too.
 
Are you listening Milestoned ? :rolleyes: . Why not while they are at it .. wouldn't it be easy to in time trial to save a fastest time on a particular Bike , then jump on another and pit it up against the the previous one . This would make clear of how you would like to set a bike up for your style and push the bike and its set up to the absolute limit .. haha:sneaky:
 
With that understeer thing ... I up the preload at least a click at the rear and soften the front (front unless there are a lot of hard breaking points ) I also increase the rebound at the front to hold the front down more when compressed .:thumbsup:

Never thought of upping the rear preload, I mainly drop the front, soften the front. Rebound changes don't do enough IMO, then again I only ever wheelied once (dumped the clutch at traffic lights in full on boy racer mode, front lifted what felt like 2 miles (probably 2 inches lol). I closed the throttle sharpish and all I know is the front didn't bounce back up like in Ride 1+2!!
 
In a trade off for the disappointment of a delayed release to November 30th, Ride 3 developers Milestone Games have released a new trailer and the full 230+ vanilla content list for the game...


Understandably fans will be disappointed to hear that Ride 3 won't be coming to our digital shelves quite as early as initially expected, the development team having taken to social media to confirm that a new release date of November 30th has now been pencilled in for this potentially rather exciting bike driving and racing title.

In a rather astute move, rather than leaving the bad taste of a delay in the collective mouths of the community, Milestone have looked to offset some of that disappointment by revealing the full 230 strong list of bikes set to come in the initial release of the game, marking a very impressive collection of machines, the most bikes to appear in any video game to date in fact.. not bad going for racers who prefer their fun on two wheels...

So what is set to come in the base version of Ride 3 then? Full list below...

Not bad eh?

Additional to the full bike list reveal, Milestone have also released a nice new trailer entitled “The Motorcycle Encyclopedia Trailer”. The trailer runs for just over one minute and shows fans plenty of footage from the game, showing off many of the different categories of machine set to be included in Ride 3. You can check the trailer out at the head of this article.

Ride 3 is expected to release for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC November 30th, 2018.
