If they made it open world /free roam and MP with in-depth upgrade options, customazations and some better physics, it would be a big game. Most players wanna do wheelies, and stunts with friends, not racing. why not do both.

I currently have ride 3 and I will say the bike models look so much better ! As I feel they look a bit cartoony in ride 3 , however I will say ride 3 is a fun game , with the different bikes you can accumulate ! So I will be looking forward to Ride 5 , but I will be waiting for a good sale !

Does it work with PSVR2?

All I care about are the physics and sound of the bikes. Could not care less about a career mode tbh. Does anyone know if Ride 5 improved a lot on the engine sounds compared to 4?

@CaptainAeroz

Sounds are better IMO. Physics are a little weird. In some corners the brakes are grabby and slow me down. Other corners it feels like someone greased my rotors. Corner speed feels slower than Ride 4 after playing them back to back. Career mode is SUPER linear. You HAVE to go in the order they want you to which is dumb to me. Not sure how I feel about it right now considering the only plus for me is the sounds improvement. EDIT: Another thing I should note is that the prices for bikes and parts is realistic. The H2R is priced at 55,000. 2023 M1000rr is priced around 33000 which is in line with real life which is a big plus for me personally.

Does this game have big bagger races?

Great video quality, y'all. Professionalism, sleek editing, and helpful narration. Keep up the good work 👌

im surprise sports games like Madden or NBA doesnt go full live service and just update rosters as they go seeing as there is little to no real difference between each year release. im assuming it has something to do with licensing or some other nonsense. its just silly that the biggest changes are just roster w/ some features coming and going with each release.

Nope, I'm looking for a 'realistic' handling model (transferred to the limits of a Computer/ Console medium ) along with set up options, tyre modelling, telemetry, dynamic weather, race editor, endurance and night racing. Can't really say I'm that invested in the virtual rider hopes and dreams and what they do between races.

The game feels exactly like Ride 4 when it comes to bike variety, but the physics feel crap. They messed up the game for me, ill stick to Ride4...

How is lacking a story driven career mode a negative? I think it's actually a positive. I don't want to watch a million cut scenes nor skip through them. Ride 3 career mode was perfect for me.

To all the racing games that know what they're supposed to be about! 🍺🏁🍺🏁🍺🏁 I wonder if there's a correlation between 3rd person floaters & the desire for buddies & story modes.🤔

Ride 2 was the best one you can customize more with colors on handle bars brakes lever mirror ECT wheelie was was better also u can drop more back with wheelies and stoppie you can really go far wih stoopies only thing u couldn't do is customize the decals on the bikes like changing the whole color of the bike n adding stickers

I have Ride 4 and as a rider gone with all short of bikes in the past (now I have 2 litre bikes) the handling was/is utter sh!t, its like the devs never riden a bicycle let alone a motorcycle... on top of that, the AI was/is beyond idiotic...let alone the fact that Ride 4 compared to Ride 3 had half the content and the rest came as DLC.... I am skipping Ride 5-6-7-8-9-10...

I love watching review channels do bike racing games because of how bad there lines are on track. That is not a dig though. They are very difficult games. And you actually gave a great review. I saw another channel complain so hard about ride 4 because it "didn't feel good and preformed bad due to mechanics ". Mans was the worst player i saw to date.

Tourist Trophy Series & MotoGP Game Series

They should’ve made this for VR. Why not? You already got GT 7 that was released first on PS4 then on PS5 then upgraded to VR2 why not this game?

Once I heard no supermoto I passed, it was one of the only games you could race supermoto in. Now that that's gone it's basically a copy and paste while removing content. Smh no thanks maybe ride 6 they won't drop the ball, well one can hope

I was hoping this game woukd have a free roam, clearly i am not alone in that from the comments. Crew motorfest has bikes, but its very limited in scope.

This review is from the view of a gamer, albeit a good and pretty legit dude in the gamer world. But he nods to that angle, kudos to that. Not positive, but willing to bet he has never rode a motorcycle, been in a turn at nearly full lean and seen gravel or grooves and relied on instict to get him home. As a racing Sim, the ride series has always suffered, but true motorcycle folks dig what it offers, so to all the true riders, don't be swayed by this dude who probably still has his mom heat his pizza rolls for him while he games and records his vids. But again, as a true motorcycle junkie here, I love pizza rolls too. This review is from a gamer, as a game. And he kinda nails it as the game is concerned. But as a diehard biker, lifelong gamer and racing fan, this game is good, and the good it offers outweighs the bad, so pick it up and enjoy mobbing the northwest 200 circuit, bouncing off the Rev limiter on the main straight at Mugello,and just have fun. And Kudos to an accurate gaming review of ride 5, but for one rider to another, go buy it and enjoy.

Hows it compare to Rims racing, I don’t need to hear about graphics

I chuckled when the reviewer complained the game didn't have a killer narrative like F1 23. C'mon, it's a freaking racing game. You want a killer narrative, go play TLOU.

It looks just the same as the last one with just a couple of new bikes

You say a story would be good? It's literally a sim, have you not played Gran Turismo? They have used the same formula since PS1, and it's still good. If milestone would go forza horizon style than yes a narrative would be necessary. Which IMHO the ride series is past due for an open world arcade style title that anyone can pickup and enjoy 2 wheels, with more arcady forgiving physics, a great map for riders to showcase riding skills. Definitely with added customization as well. We can only wish though.

With VR mod that game is awesome.

Also part degradation/failure/damage makes it one of the kind. I like it. It is much better as a simulation and carrer mode. Ride5 looks for me as another skin in for the same game....

Milestone must be one of the, if not the most complacent gaming companies in the world. They've been churning out the same copy/paste games for decades without (m)any changes or improvements. They need competition, otherwise nothing will change for another 10 years. All their MotoGP games have been the same for years, then they did a search/replace in their code and released WSBK and now Ride 5 seems to be more of the same again. Same engine, same old fake sounds, same uncontrollable physics, same dumb and unbalanced AI. Last game that I bought from them was MotoGP 22 and I don't think I'll be buying anything new from them in the years to come seeing how nothing ever changes. If they put zero effort into their products then I'll put zero money into them.

This is my first Ride game and I'm enjoying it immensely. There's always a balance between the fun arcade feel and ultra realism when it comes to racing games and i think Ride has found that perfectly.

> Racing is racing, that part will never change. Wow. From someone invoking "holistic gameplay experience" you thouroughly simplify things, don't you?

I wonder if the devs actually ride bikes. If so they should know that as everyone says we need open world. Also every bikes sounds the same, big mistake for gearheads.

Honestly seeing how bad you are playing this game makes it difficult to take your word for it. Also using the f1 game as an example while they’ve been hitting new lows every season for the last few years in terms of quality really shows you have no idea what you’re talking about when it comes to the racing genre

It's ridiculous to compare a Milestone game to EA racing titles. They have much more budget than Milestone and can therefore create a much more in-depth and extensive career mode... It is fairer to compare Ride 5 with predecessor Ride 4. And if you do just that, Ride 5 is a significant improvement. An 8 is more appropriate.
