MX sim definitely has a better 1st person camera and damping forces on steering. When landing a jump in MX sim the bike goes where the front wheel is pointed but in MX bikes it feels the bike might go where ever it wants to if the bike is even little bit sideways.

In 3rd person I can't play MX sim or MX bikes at all. This might not be as big of a difference for 3rd person players. Of course I'm playing in 1st person as a simulator should be played. Also leaning very fast from one side to another causes weird crashes because you can't feel the bike. In MX bikes it is really difficult to tell when you are on the limit of the grip. In MX sim you really know what the bike is doing at all times because the camera is rigid and attached to the rider. One of the hardest things when moving from MX sim to MX bikes is the camera. You don't have to be fast to be good.īut what do I know, alot of people with agree with this, and alot will disagree. It has a great learning curve, and he is just a sad, mad little man because you don't have to sit in a room for 4 days with a shit bucket grinding the game to get good. This game is not easy to just start playing and do a lap. And to hell with Spencer Turley for literally saying 'You all just like MX Bikes because you can hop on and ride and feel like somebody because the game is easy.' No sir. Show me someone who rides irl without weighting the outside peg? MXS is great, if it's 2013 and you're looking for a killer sim in it's prime, but MX Bikes will give you a better online experience, and a good ride. The literal raw feeling when riding a bike, seeing it move out from beneath you when throwing it sideways. The tail of the bikes getting kicked by braking bumps, the whoops hop, the whips, the way the bars spit and stutter on rough terrain.

FFS, jlv refuses to create sound mods, the bikes sound like something created in a mixer. It's a masterpiece that one man created the whole thing, but it's just outdated. Because 8 years is alot for a game, but it's outdated. The top dogs do nothing BUT play that game.

But you goto a friends house over the weekend? Then maybe do some work? Then go on vacation? Now you suck at the game. The game is hard yes, but when you get good, it's a great feeling. Then they gave us dirt kicking up, and decals. MXS requires your full attention every day, for hours that day. This topic hits me different because being an avid player of 8 years you'd think i was a legend or veteran at this time. MXS was so ugly when i was 12 (I'm 20 now). But that said i should say i have been playing MX Simulator for 8 years now.

I see this topic is kinda old but I really wanted to voice my opinion on it coming from my experience.
