Monster Jam: Steel Titans 2 Review - The Final Verdict

- Monster Jam: Steel Titans 2 is at its best when it embraces the arcadiness, depth, and lightheartedness that define its most exciting moments, though it sometimes punishes the very ambition behind those aspects.

I wish they bring back the monster truck/motocross/midtown madness games, maybe combine them in a single game. That would be way more interesting.
Great games I still have them, and the motion censor controller that came with Motocross Madness 2 :-)
Yep or even the last two motorstorm games (Pacific Rift and Apocalypse)
Wreckfest should just add this as a mode that'd be great
The beetle monstertruck is kind of underwhelming in wreckfest tho :(
@@leovalencia3152 it's too small 🦐
I would totally buy a monster truck car pack
Wreckfest has more than a monster truck and much better driving and damage FX.. this game here is for kids about 8 years old.. and GTA5 has some great Monster truck mods..
i feel like a game like this could be made to be so much cooler...it just doesnt feel like enough
Yeah this is just off road racing with minimal content
They're all the same wheel set it looks like, no point in new trucks
monster truck games are always awful
I feel like the time of realistic racers is slowing down because these arcadey games are cheaper to make and often get a pass for being simple just because it is arcade fun.
I like the fact that there is difficulty keeping the truck from flipping over. That is what adds difficulty and fun to the game. And also adds a risk and reward aspect.
I feel like they are getting closer with every release to a complete and fun game we just need to wait for monster jam steel titans 9
When you mentioned the truck selection, ones like Higher Education and Backwards Bob. You do know those are real life monster trucks, right? Sure, the developers chose to license those to appeal to the kids, but they are real. Higher Education was run by Vaters Motorsports, who have been running the Black Stallion truck since the 80's. I understand what you were trying to get at, but these are actual real competition trucks.
controls are wayyyy better than the first steel titans
Wayyyyyy better for sure!
Can you really refer to them as "larger than life" when they do indeed exist?
Did they make this game so that a 2nd player can use player 1's unlocked trucks for split screen? Or is it like the first game where you only could use unlocked trucks on the profile you unlocked them with?
Im a year late but yes, you can only use unlocked trucks on the account used to unlock them
@@rockyravage7154 Thank you for the reply. I have not purchased the game yet but I have been tempted to buy the 2 game bundle at the sale price they have had it at recently.
Love the obscure reviews.
This game looks like something that should be free
Yep looks pretty basic.
I saw this on a warez site and came here to check it out - not going to download it so not even free is good enough!
The game provides good controls and I die for the engine sounds it sounds amazing and I love the stadium set ups it all feels so alive. The game could do a little better with the whole freeroam aspect where you go into a fictional world where certain trucks act as keys to unlock things but ngl this game has serious potential but Steel Titans 2 overall is not a bad game but maybe some updates and more work by devs could bring it to what we dream of it becoming
How would you sum it compared to the first monster jam... Looks lot same just with more added
It's 100 times better than the first one
It's really fun. The devs have already released 2 update patches on PC so the few issues it has can be patched.
Can u create your own truck yet?
pros:
1) game fixes some issues like lame pay-to-upgrade are changed with a level up system that allows the player to use a monster truck he likes to get more experience
2) it haves more independent trucks than the first game
3) each monster truck gets a spot in their world that allows them to interact, a good evolution from the first game's Alien Invasion easter egg
4) every original DLC related trucks makes a comeback for free (like the golden trucks)
cons:
1) very wonky gameplay that was also in the first game (sluggish and hard to manage)
2) leveling system force people to use one monster truck to be able to compete in races (this goes with truck emblems as well)
final vote: 8/10
fixes some of the problems but still not that good
Cool
Can you play 2 players?
I give it 5/10. Got it for the kids who know the trucks and enjoy it. I try not to let my frustration with the physics, AI and lack of quality control tarnish their experience.
Floating environment assets. Every truck handles the same. Lack of progression other than "race all the events in order". Poorly defined track bounds in the world circuit events so you randomly get reset taking a corner too wide.
AI that follow a predefined path that you can't nudge, ram, or affect in any way. The events where half the trucks race the circuit in the opposite direction are complete luck if you come round a corner and meet an AI head on. You'll both stop dead and the AI immediately respawns ahead and takes off. Or if you hit one from behind because you have more speed? You instantly decelerate to their speed and get stuck behind them while they keep driving. On the narrow tracks of the final world it becomes truly frustrating.
Sounds like your just bad at the game. "Backlflip being the most exotic move" come on there's not a HUGE variety of moves that a 15,000 pound truck can do but they've evolved over the last 10 yrs from jsut simple flips. If you actually Watch monster jam you know there's more technical moves to do. If you want the arcade feel play the first one. They took feedback and made this one half arcade half Sim. You just can't please anyone these days..ima still definitely getting this and playing it.
for a kid yeah they may like it but... i was hoping for more. beamng or even wreckfest physics so much better than this mobile port
Uhm
This guy does know Backwards bob and Higher education are real trucks right
Yeah I agree monster trucks is cool
I mean I really don't want to play the game but I want to one I rather look at one in real life I don't know I don't think a video game would do it justice it's nothing like seeing a monster truck in real life
game was fun for about 1 min.... but my 8 year old loves it....
Free game on PSplus for sure.
Noice
For some reason this game reminds me of twisted metal. hahaha
That’s the first MJ game that’s the Twisted Metal clone.
MOBIL PORT .
You are really pushing for arcade lol Which is why I don't play them I want a challenge I'm glad you can flip over easily lol
be honost... u play cod in recruit mode
@@Omega-uj6qz Huh? Besides the fact that your way off topic here whats CoD got to do with a monster truck game?
Is there a market for this?
Yes. My nephew loves monster trucks.
If I see it for $5 or less sure I play it
Especially now with covid.
You mean a Monster Truck flips over? Say it aint so
I have monster jam steall titans 1 it's funer
Hi
I’m still pushing for a realistic monster jam game I want real money hats why I left Mario kart in the fast
Sigh, smh. Was going ot buy it but once again, just too cartoonish. It's pretty dumb that I have to go play BeamNG Drive just to do monster jam stuff.
downhill copy past
Game no fun. Me no play.
Boring
I would rather have a ingrown toenail removal with no anesthesia then play this game🙄
No. You overexaggerate. I think you're a wimp.
@@clementine2001 this guy🤨
Look at Mr.High and mighty
@@biblicaladrian6007 He's mr. High and mighty because he doesnt like this basic ass game?
Thiccum yes
Making it sound like it's Metal Gear Survive or Anthem level of Bad
It looks nice but plays like garbage. That's all you had to say.
zzzzzzzzzz
you call this fun? it's repetitive after 5 mins ... This game would be great on a kiddy console and if you were 8 years old...... for real fun.. Get WRECKFEST and call it a day.. yur welcome...
