MotoGP 24 analysis

The Italian development studio Milestone (owned by Deep Silver) and expert in the development of video games in disciplines related to motorsport presents us a new year with the latest opus of the biggest motorcycle competition such as MotoGP24.

Customization and licensing

The first thing we will do in MotoGP 24 will be to customize our rider. To do this we will have to choose between a series of predefined heads that we will not be able to customize to our liking, which prevents us from being able to create drivers with personality or look for a specific resemblance. This is an important element since it would add an additional point to the immersion within the game.

As for our motorcycle and our helmet, we can also customize them with a little more freedom with different stickers and designs to differentiate ourselves from the rest of the riders on the grid. There is an option to upload designs which will be enabled later, so this will surely be the case.

Create your path to MotoGP

Career mode is undoubtedly the star mode of this MotoGP 24 since we can start competing in Moto3 and we will have to earn our place to move up in the category until reaching the goal of reaching MotoGP. Above all, if you have not been a regular player of motorcycle games, this is the ideal mode since in the trajectory mode you can adapt to driving a simple motorcycle, what inclination to take in the curves and how braking well since GP motorcycles are something more complex to transport.

The driver market makes each season different because depending on our performance on the asphalt we can attract the attention of other teams and even be able to move up in category.

This applies to all drivers on the grid since anyone can change teams. We will have to achieve the objectives set for us and surpass our rival to be able to move up in the category. Of course, if we perform poorly, we will have no choice but to return to Moto3 and Moto2 and gain a place again to return to the premier class.

Other MotoGP 24 game modes

We will have the opportunity to participate in a Moto GP season with any of the official riders and try to get the world championship and who knows if we can predict the winner of the season that we will know in a few months. Of course, we will have the opportunity to experience a single Grand Prix from the calendar of our choice and test ourselves during the qualifying, sprint and race sessions.

Regarding the multiplayer section, we can enjoy, on the one hand, a split-screen experience with another user on the same television to see who is ahead of the other in the race. To play online games we will have “Live GP” which will allow us to compete in specific races at a specific time against people with the same abilities. It’s an interesting idea, but it’s true that daily shopping is few and far between. The other option to compete with other players is to create rooms where we can participate in races with a specific configuration.

Rival Gameplay and AI

MotoGP 24 allows both beginners and experienced players to enjoy the game since we will have a series of settings that will allow us to enjoy a simplified experience that allows us to have some help in the relationship with the line, the brakes, etc. Knowing the circuits will be crucial to be able to find the best route and look for the best areas to be able to overtake.

Adaptive difficulty is an interesting mechanic in the game since it will vary as we progress through races, we may start on easy difficulty and after a few races the game may have raised us to a higher average difficulty. Yes, it’s true that at the moment it’s somewhat unfair since the AI players have a somewhat aggressive attitude and on more than one occasion they ended up colliding with my motorcycle and project myself.

Thanks to the rewind we will have a new opportunity to seek a different route to avoid being shot, but this is something that will surely be fixed in a nearby patch.

Visual and technical section

In MotoGP 24 we have a solid technical section in which the title is at 60 frames per second, without suffering a drop in performance in all the races in which I have participated.

The race in the rain is very well recreated in terms of the reaction of the motorcycles on the asphalt, the effect of the tires and the drops of water that fall on our visor. With this weather we have to be more careful not to go off the correct route, otherwise we would like to end up on the ground. Graphically the game is remarkable, although it is true that since it is the official game of the great motorcycling competition, they could look for greater fidelity in the faces of the pilots so that they look even more like the real ones .

Conclusions

MotoGP 24 is the official video game of the motorcycle world championship in which we can compete in each of the 3 categories until winning the title of world champion. On a playable level, it is similar to previous games, although it is true that the inclusion of adaptive difficulty makes the races more unpredictable due to the behavior of the AI, which is sometimes too aggressive.

Career mode is the most interesting of the title since it will allow us to start competing in the lower category and earn our place to look for a more competitive team and even move up in category. The driver market makes each season more interesting because we don’t know which drivers will change teams.
