I really don't even know where to start here but I just got done (trying) to play this game for a week solid and i cant for the life of me understand just what it is these people are trying to achieve here. 11 years after MCM2 and this is progress! You've got to be kidding me. If your listening Rainbow why didn't you just continue with the old MCM2 model? The reason I ask that is because MCM2 was ADDICTING!!!!! "Nothing else in the world mattered" ADDICTING! None of your stuff since has even come close to being that, nothing...close...you must be able to tell the difference in what was fun like a game should be. This game here does not resemble any kind of motorcycling thats ever been riden by man(or woman) in this life time. I've riden dirt and street bikes ever since I was 5 and this is not how they work. Not even close. Now I'm not saying that MCM2 was like the real thing but it was WAY closer and WAY MORE FUN!!!! Give us back a game for the PC's where we can create our own tracks so we can get back the community we once had where there was at least a tournament to found every weekend. Thats what its all about, not this crap (im sorry but thats just the way i feel about this game). And another thing that ads to my pain besides the money i wasted on this is the fact I was forced to go waste more money on a xbox controller after buying the game because there was no saying so before i bought this pos. Sorry for ranting and raving on but I just cant take it anymore lol

There is absolutely 0 way in the entire universe that Wide ****ing Open, Bike On Rails MCM2 is more real than what MX vs ATV Reflex is. Reflex is easily the most realistic experience they've put out so far. My favourite MX game. Ever. Care to elaborate on what you actually liked more in MCM2 than just calling Reflex crap overall?

oi rip has a point. mcm2 was addicting and the community was boss. tournaments every weekend and always fun to be able to chat to people aswell.. i agree with rip, they should have made progress with the mcm2 engine then bringing out some half hearted new game just to make sales for xbox and ps3.

also MCM2 had a way of riding and you could hit lines which were more precise. MvA is more technical but i rekon if MCM2 had MVA graphics it would be a better game. just my 2cents.

Reflex / Alive has two major negatives against it when compared to MCM2: 1) MCM2 was "pc only" so the community only had one place to go to get together. With Reflex / Alive being on Xbox360, PS3, and PC (for Reflex), the community is spread pretty thin instead of all gathering on a single platform. 2) User tracks and skins gave the community plenty of free content. This not only gave us more to do at no additional charge, but it also gave some of us something to do besides racing while still being involved with the game, preventing us from getting burned out on the racing alone. Let's face it, things will never be like they were with MCM2 no matter how good the game is. The addition of Alive DLC from THQ is promising, but we're still going to have to pay for what THQ wants to give us instead of creating what we want on our own.

I feel that in games like mcm2 and the unleashed games were better mostly because of how more consistent you could be. Fast guys are fast in both, neither one caters to n00bs but in reflex no matter how much skill you have the game will still screw you over fairily often. I absolutely hate that about reflex.

You're not getting it. They aren't going to give us the option to make our own content when their goal is to SELL us content.
