For all of Evolution's problems, I have to give it credit for one thing: I have never once seen anyone actually clip through the track. So, it is better than Ignition because, even though it isn't even sort of fun, it is actually playable.

The fact we are debating what game is worst is sad considering the games are less then 6 years apart
I can confidently say that NASCAR 21 is the worst NASCAR game. Say what you want about Heat Evolution, it was functional enough that you can play it for at least an hour without experiencing game breaking issues and at least it didn’t need multiple patches in order to implement BASIC NASCAR RULES

Dude I don’t even think Motorsport Games will survive another couple weeks. Mr Penske doesn’t want to be part of a company that wants to utilize an NFT Scheme (get rich) and then run and wait for all the negative feedback. This company needs to lose everything I do feel bad for their employees in Russia because of the conflict but there’s no excuse of being exposed for trying to use an NFT scheme to make a profit on such a broken game.

Quickest game I’ve bought and uninstalled
What's even worse is now that MSG is (rumored to be) just an NFT scheme. So its less and less likely we see a NASCAR 22
All they had to do was merely polish the production value compared to Heat, and tweak the driving physics. Instead, they set a bar so low it’s beneath the earth’s core.
I think this is just the gaming industry in general. Not just Motorsports games. Gaming has been on a decline since like 2013. I recommend watching Emplemons video on gaming he explains very well
Fans have some serious rose tinted glasses about the Eutechnyx days. Look up “NASCAR 2013 is a finished game” on KZread, and keep in mind that was AFTER a few years of bug fixing and refinement. Not to mention, if you want to talk cut and paste sequels, that series makes Heat 5 look like a revolution

I hear you Nascar Rumble theme
A couple of glaring glitches I noticed was at Bristol the entire field would just stop ., all 39 other cars in one corner.. or I’d randomly go from 195 to 135mph at Daytona for no reason .. this is a terrible game
Cons of Iracing: - Stalkers - Theatre kids - Joke lobbies - Bad customer support - Physics that aren't quite there yet - Jason Jacoby - No proper usernames - No career mode - Subscription service - No Rebel flags allowed - Lacking a lot of tracks from the NASCAR schedule - Annoying players
Austin Ogonoski has a great video out about the truth of Motorsports Games and why Ignition was such a trainwreck. The developer is an NFT scheme. Hate to stay it but unless NASCAR pulls its license this isn't gonna get any better than it is.
This makes me worried for the IndyCar and BTCC games coming.
What's stopping them from following the nascar 2003-2006 formula... Is it really that hard?!?
I love the NASCAR RUMBLE music playing in the background…now that is a fun game to play

Paid the 100 dollar ultimate version and played for about 10 min on Xbox. Cars were sunk into the track and no rearview mirror is absolutely insane. I am more than likely never buying one again until I miss out on an awesome one. Then maybe the next one will be worth it. The F1 games are awesome.

It’s even licensed and will be based on the World of Outlaws series.
My career mode is still broken. I say this every time I see one of these videos, but it’s really fundamentally broken for me. Trying to load into Las Vegas freezes and crashes my game every time. I only bought the game to experience funny glitches, but with how unplayable the game was, even trying to take humor in that was impossible. I just uninstalled it. I needed space for Elden Ring
I'm so glad I deleted this game
2:58 honestly I kinda want that back lmao (as an option to turn it on of course)
This is a cautionary tale, the reason 704 hadn't added those things that many folks thrashed them for is that they wanted to make an actual, playable game with depth. What good is a paint booth when the game barely functions?
I hate that NASCAR 21 didn’t have split screen.
Damn son, daytona usa 1 and 2 are miles ahead of this game and those games out in 1994 and 1998
i realized early on that ignition is just rfactor 2, since in rfactor 2 the glitch at 3:57 always happens and launches you
Some of the glitches look similar to (in my opinion) the worst F1 game, F1 2014. The disappearing into the track glitch is on that game too, so is the illogical physics. The worst thing, however, was the online experience. It was impossible to play online racing against other online racers, there were lag spikes everywhere and because of this, not only couldn't the game place the location of the players in each lobby, but their cars would do all sorts of crazy things due to the lag, like bouncing up and down on the starting grid...even before the race got underway. It was a disaster
We need NASCAR games to focus on the Hardcore player, because they want game modes in the game so Casual fans can play. Also gameplay matters importantly, it has to be realistic or what's the point.
Best game: NASCAR Heat 5 Worst game: NASCAR ‘21

No. Best is Nascar Thunder 2004 PS1 and PS2.
NASCAR 21 Ignition was So Bad NASCAR Terminated their contract with Motorsport Games
That 4 wide part at 9:08 was intense
Me at the start of the video: “hey this game’s graphics don’t look too bad, how is it the worst NASCAR game?” Me barely halfway through: “this game is a mess”
3:07 - the flipping contest~
Hopefully NASCAR Ignition sees a big turnaround like the one No Man Sky went through.
How hard is it to just give us what Heat 4 gave us with the addition of ARCA, fully customizable paint schemes with sponsors, a wide difficulty radius from super easy to hard and realistic, and little things like drivers retiring or changing teams? That's literally all you've gotta fucking do. But they turn it into rocket science.
I’m still baffled how it could have been this bad. I mean it’s not like a racing game is the most ground breaking game over completed to develop.
These glitches remind me of my Assetto Corsa with NASCAR mods, Daytona specifically had engine destroying walls. Only difference is that in AC you can fix most mods with the Notepad or the Model Editor that comes with the game, while official Nascar Games barely have any modding posibilities
As an Indycar fan, I hope that the new Indycar game coming out next year isn't as bad as this especially considering Motorsport Games is the same developer for the Indycar game as this.
This is unacceptable. I remember Nascar 98 ......
Wish Iracing would help develop something like what they got maybe not all they have but give us three NASCAR series
No one with a brain thought this game was gonna be any good
Imagine a world in which Papyrus kept making NASCAR games after NASCAR Racing Season 2003...

I mostly had problems with the assists, and I am a wheel player. In high steering assist it pretty much just drives for you and can't go high at Daytona straightaways, medium had the car be very tight, and the low was just out of control for me. No steering assist which is in my game has some really comfortable gameplay, that is until you are in a pack. I can't make laps with no assist pack racing because the contact physics are so bad. I'd touch somebody on the side and it would spin my car straight into the infield. This makes the game unplayable for me, you don't have a fun time with either setting off assists, medium is at least decent. It should be like My game heat 3 that has no steering assist, but you can edit the sensitivity and there is no crazy contact physics.
This game was so bad that Xbox lowered the price and I only bought it for $20 I still feel like I overpaid
I currently have NH5 should i skip nascar 21 (its $19 currently on sale) and wait for the next game?
Why can’t they ever make a NASCAR game that has real damage physics
I think It’s time for a new studio to make a NASCAR game.
This game has potentially killed this entire company for me. I'm extremely extremely unsure about purchasing anything they put out in the future because of how horrible this is. To me it's straight up unplayable.
Love the nascar rumble background music! Classic game!
Throwing this out there. If Nascar would pay someone to make a good consistent and complete game for their cup serries. They wouldn't use Iracing for the invitation serries... Just think about that.
Hey Black Flags Matter do you think you could do a video on Trenton Speedway if thats possible.
Am I the only one noticing the background music from Nascar Rumble on PS1?
overall a ton of potential with some of the retirement and new drivers taking over. but they just gotta get the gameplay right and features like custom setups
Don't buy a game because it has "potential". Only buy a game if it is good NOW.

I'd have to say 21 by far, cause while Heat Evolution is probably the most feature stripped NASCAR game, at least it was actually playable and at least for me, there weren't too many glitches besides some cars occasionally flying high in the air and the infamous pause glitch. As for 21, it probably takes a good 3 minutes to get in a race, online is probably 5, sometimes the game just crashes or you'll be just be staring at your cars roll cage when you try to get in a race. And you can't even create your own driver or car in career mode ;-;
Nascar heat evolution was atleast playable and hell I’ve herd they are having trouble with nascar 22 so yeah keep that in mind as well
It's like they didn't even play the game themselves, not once
Evolution was Atleast playable with a custom setup
