Underrated, but still

The game is really fun and looks wonderfull. But the track designs are sometimes unforgiving, to clunky and sometimes confusing. The handling of the vehicles is ok, the physics is great. But there is no possibility to strife when choosing a glider. You can also not avoid a tracking missle from behind and a deflector is something you have to collect and keep just in case. The game is very fast and with the confusing trackdesign you often end up in space and you have to reset the vehicle with no speed at all while the opthers blast away and leave you behind. There is no Option to upgrade your vehicles besides the shape and color of the wheels and tires, some stickers and some wings - but thats about it. Doesnt effect the handling what so ever. The destruction derby mode often lets you search for weapons that you can only use once like in a mario kart style and then your opponents are very fast and far away so you sometimes hit your opponents maybe two times before the round ends because it ends way to early while in elimination races you have to drive like 10 minutes before every one is eliminated unless nobody hit you from behind and you end up faceing the other direction on the ceiling falling down while the camera tries to understand what just happend as well as you and you reset with 1/10 of the potential speed way back onto the track to slow to make the next jump and the race is over in 2 minutes. I can say that there was a lot of potential wasted and the game was released way to early, tracks that are confusing while you are being attaked from behind with accurate physics, 0.7g gravity, and sometimes no track borders that keeps you catapulting into a rock over and over again while you lead the race until 10 seconds before the race would have been won crushes the will to try that track again and move on. So a missed opportunity to redefine the genre but still fun and very nice to look at. If you have tendencies to become seasick, I warned you.
