Great game
Love it!!!Snowgumby
Revising my review
Reckless 1 was ok but too limited. I'm reluctant to try no 3 because of all the negative reviews. But Pixelbite got everything right in no 2. It is, in my opinion, the best racing game EVER. The graphics are remarkable. Handling is great. Flawless and fun. I don't know why so many had crashing problems - no problems on my mini 2. It's close to being the perfect game.
Wait a minute! After iOS 9, I'm having the same problem - game crashes back to the home screen. What a shame. Pay no attention to the glowing review above. I revise my 5 stars to 1. If I could give 0 I would, cause the game's no good to me if I can't play. Deleting.
Revising again: reloaded and I'm delighted to say it works now. All is forgiven. You're still the best and back to 5 stars.
And I have no 3 now. It's good too.Show lessOld ft
Amazing, if it would work.
I originally bought this game back when it came out I don't know how long ago. When I say RR3 PPP up on the storefront I decided this would be fun to install and play again, especially on my new iPhone 6 Plus. The last time I played was on an iPhone 4. So, at first it was perfect. Game ran smooth and it looked incredible. But as of recent, which is less than a day later and probably half way through the career, I can't even get through a race or upgrading a car before it just crashes back to the home screen.
I've thought about just giving up. Uninstalling, or just buying the new RR3. But, my fear is that if this tried and true game doesn't work. Why would I want to buy the new one.
Fix the crashes and this game gets 5 stars, because that is what it deserves.Show lessthehaynesmp
Awful tilt steering
Tilt steering on this version is pitiful. I have tried to adjust the sensitivity to no avail... There is way to much null zone off center.. I can tilt my iPad almost 15 degrees and the car just begins to turn all be it very slowly.. Tilted around 20 degrees and the car snaps violently into oversteer and all I do is fishtail.. Driving straight is almost impossible as you come out of a turn.. Sad really because this version has great tracks and the ability to upgrade and paint your car is brilliant.. I have turned the difficulty way down and stuck with it long enough to purchase the baja truck and rally car and max out all their upgrades thinking maybe the handling would improve with the better cars.. Nope, they all exhibit the same characteristics.. Fix the steering physics or add the ability to adjust the null zone and linearity and I'll gladly give it five stars..Show lessLido class
Favorite game
This game has realistic physics and is fun and engaging- the more you play, the better you realize it is. I have deleted and replayed the whole game, which has a pretty impressive variety of surfaces and styles, 3 times. Still fun. Still manages to be easy to jump into and out of. My only complaint is the fact that I can log into the game, with my name and password, but it doesn't access my stats and credits and cars unless it's on the same device. Why can't I sign in and at least get my credits? I reset my iPad and lost everything. I can see my ranking in the leader board! Now there are like, 3 of me in there. That's why 4 of 5- otherwise it's fun and easy to access.Show lessKomichare
It's not a good game, it's a great one.
I think this is the best racing game I've tried yet. I have not had the crashing issues( 2nd gen iPad ). I read others commenting on having to buy coins. Not me, just play the game and you can earn all you need. I love the physics and the graphics. Both are really really good.
If I was to find a fault it would be in the lack of any randomness with the AI drivers. The AI driver starting in first place ( you will always start in last) always ends up in first if you don't win or second if you do. A small thing but it would be I think it would be better if the AI cars mixed it up a bit.Show lessCharles1317
My favorite racing game EVER!
My name on the leaderboards is B.L.ZeBOB,... I have been a hardcore addict of RR2 since it first came out way back in February. I love this game because unlike practically every other game I have played, RR2 never gets boring, so I have to say that it's quite remarkable to me that I still play it! I sincerely hope that there will soon be a Reckless Racing 3.
That said, there is one problem I have with the playability of the game when in Multiplayer mode (the only mode I play anymore) the issue is with server lag, it gives some players an unfair advantage because they will appear to be in several places at once, ahead of you, behind you next to you,... all over the place! It can cause your car to stop dead in its tracks, or worse, crash! If you would please address this, perhaps by upgrading your servers, it would really enhance the RR2 experience! Thanks for creating such a great game!Show lessBobby_Libra
Fun but repetitive
It's nicely done, but it only takes a handful or races to max out your starting car. So you buy a new one. But now you can't race in any of the easier leagues, you have to go for the harder ones... where your opponents also have better cars, so you're back to even footing. So there's really no progression, unless you prize the abstract "achievement" of having paid $92,000 virtual dollars for your car rather than $6,000.
Also, there's a bias towards the AI, in the physics - any contact is much harder on you than them. This makes it very difficult to run them off the road, or even slow them down at all, but minor bumps from them can send you hurtling off cliffs or into out-of-control spins.
An obvious competitor in this genre is Death Rally, which I find much more enjoyable in all regards.Show lessWade Tregaskis
Good game
I like the game. Very user friendly for a few reasons. First, the control customizations are really cool. You can place the turning arrows and gas and break arrows to practically anywhere on the screen and adjust the size of those buttons too. Great graphics. Also, the dynamic difficulty setting is a great feature to the game too. It adjusts the difficulty level based on whether you win or lose a lot. Haven't seen that feature on any other racing game I have downloaded to my iphone.
On another note, it would be nice to add a closer view for game play. The view seems a tad too distant for me. Also, adding a realistic damage setting where the more times one crashes their car, the more damage their car will suffer and thus slow the car down.
This program does have a noticeable bug though. It crashes a lot, making game play somewhat frustrating. It could be my phone, which is a 3Gs but I don't know..Hopefully this will be taken care of in this programs software update. Overall though, a really fun/addicting game to play.Show lessTrayyy8187
Very awesome games
The best racing game that I have played that is in a 3rd person view, physics are amazing, you can still use your weaker cars because you can do the cups over again. Graphics are really nice, the cars control is crazy as to how realistic it is, everything you do changes how your car races.
I have to admit it is amazingly fun and ranks in my top 5 right along with Real Racing 2. But this game is much more fun to play because of how much you have to customize the car for different track types and setups, you learn how your car performs best with different upgrades.
At first I didn't like the power limitations but now that I know how to use it to your advantage I love it. My only complaint is that the cars are not actually licensed. Which I think would make the game really awesome. Different levels of upgrades would be awesome too, as well as being able to change the graphics type on cars and a few more cosmetic upgrades. But these are really nothing huge.
Love the game, easily worth the $2.Show lessTheDevinG
