Velocity Crew is a brand new co-op get together sport that enables gamers to take the position of a pit crew on a race observe. You and your crew will repair all types of mechanical issues on varied automobiles, as quick as you may. The sport follows the identical form of mechanics as Overcooked and Shifting Out, and is far more enjoyable to play with mates than alone. However does Velocity Crew take first place with regards to gameplay? Let’s test it out!
Within the sport, gamers transfer across the pit space and use the varied instruments offered to carry out upkeep on the automobiles that want help. For instance, it’s possible you’ll want to vary a nasty tire. This includes grabbing the jack, jacking the automobile up, eradicating the tire, grabbing a brand new tire, attaching it, then eradicating the jack. Additionally, you will do issues like exchange bumpers, repair dents, exchange elements below the automobile, put out fires, and so forth. This feels like quite a bit, and it is if you happen to’re taking part in solo, however Velocity Crew actually shines when you’ve gotten two or extra gamers within the Pit. When a automobile pulls up, you’ll diagnose its points which will likely be highlighted in yellow so what you want to work on. Splitting up and specializing in completely different duties is your greatest wager.
It appears extra frantic, however quite a bit simpler when you’ve gotten a number of teammates. This may will let you get via extra vehicles quicker, and full every stage with the next rating. It’s additionally simply extra enjoyable usually if you’re not taking part in alone. I believed it was humorous that gamers can get hit by the vehicles in the event that they’re not cautious and out of the way in which once they pull in to the storage. This made for some humorous moments, seeing my teammates fly throughout the display. No want to fret although, as they are going to respawn after 3 seconds. You may as well slap your teammates for some motive. That is simply one thing foolish the builders added for just a little additional enjoyable.
The controls felt a bit sluggish for such a fast-paced sport. Having to seize all the instruments and put them again the place they go earlier than I might transfer on additionally felt irritating; it form of slowed issues down when all I wished to do was transfer quicker and get to the following automobile. That is additionally a gameplay mechanic that’s much less irritating with extra gamers, as you may assign duties to your teammates, like placing the instruments up or eliminating the scrap/rubbish. Don’t fear in case you are missing native mates to play with; Velocity Crew has a web based multiplayer mode that may will let you be part of three different gamers for the varied ranges. So, there’s actually no must play alone except you need some apply otherwise you like a solitary problem.
So far as graphics go, I really feel Velocity Crew might have seemed just a little higher. The way in which it appears to be like form of jogs my memory of a wise telephone sport. It’s nothing horrible, however I wouldn’t name it interesting when it comes to character design or environments. It has moments the place it appears to be like good, however different instances it simply appears to be like a bit generic. The music isn’t a lot better, however it works for the theme of the sport. General, I believe the principle enchantment with Velocity Crew is the enjoyable you may be having whereas taking part in with mates.
If this appears to be like fascinating to you, in I extremely suggest trying out the demo on the eShop before you purchase it. That means you may get really feel for the controls and multiplayer mode. Velocity Crew is a enjoyable sport to play with the household, a bunch of mates, or on-line with three strangers. Nevertheless, I don’t assume it’s very enjoyable if you play it alone. When you’re in search of a enjoyable, co-op sport, undoubtedly add this one to your checklist.
