The dumpster fire that is Motorsport Games
Running my first race today, everything was going well until my game begun lagging coming through turn 3, and then coming off turn 4 I was met with this monstrosity.

That "bug" , if you can even call it that, happens because the AI don't slowdown when an accident happens infront of them, and in the rare chance they do stop, they don't drive around the crash, causing the whole track to be blocked.
Mostly happens at tracks like Bristol and Martinsville.

Seems like they were originally developing an ARCA sim before the NASCAR deal came through.acerogers58 wrote: ↑2 years ago That "bug" , if you can even call it that, happens because the AI don't slowdown when an accident happens infront of them

Motorsport Games are being sued by multiple companies for extremely shady practices. NASCAR, IndyCar and the BTCC are all reportedly looking to terminate their contracts.

I didn't believe all the "wait for updates" defense the game got when it came out which is why I refunded it, certainly glad I did since most of the bugs still exist. I'd honestly pay more for a 15 year old EA NASCAR game then this game in its current state.

Motorsport Games continues its death spiral, with an anonymous employee threatening to leak the source code of not one, not two, not three but FOUR games, claiming they aren't being paid.

It should be noted a large amount of Motorsports Games employees are Russian, the company claimed they couldn't be paid due to the Ukrainian war and offered them to move to the USA.
With a catch, they'd be paid 20% less.
