The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, with many expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads, particularly unskippable ones that interrupt gameplay. While some players appreciate the option to watch ads for rewards, the overall sentiment leans towards the belief that the game prioritizes ad revenue over user experience, leading to a perception of it being a "cash grab." A few users noted that while the game is enjoyable, the intrusive ads detract from the overall fun, prompting some to uninstall the game entirely.
“I believe Mad Skills MX 2 was a $10 game without any real in-app purchases.”
“But close to no ads, thriving community where you can truly grind through bikes without having to pay.”
“I recommend buying the no ads version.”
“The game itself is fun but the menus are super glitchy, you are bombarded with un-skippable ads, and you have to wait hours to unlock new parts for your bike (yet another incentive to buy gold with real money to avoid the wait).”
“The ads are longer than the gaming sessions.”
“This is an absolute cash grab and they're not even trying to hide it.”

The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with many players reporting significant lag, glitches, and crashes even when using the "performance mode." While some users find the game enjoyable and smooth, others express frustration over inconsistent performance and screen size issues that negatively impact gameplay. Overall, the consensus suggests that the game has potential but requires substantial improvements in optimization to enhance the user experience.
“This is a very fun and addictive game; the only thing I would add is tuning like suspension gear adjustments, and getting parts from different brands and performances like pistons, blocks, clutch, everything on a bike. This game has lots of potential.”
“It's challenging and runs smoothly.”
“Good game, smooth performance 🙂”
“Putting performance upgrades in settings doesn't help at all; still glitches, still crashes. Fix it already, and it will be 5 stars then.”
“Turning the 'performance mode' on in the settings does absolutely nothing to help.”
“Even on a brand new S20 FE, the game struggles to remain constant and freezes at random times, even with performance mode.”

The story aspect of the game is criticized for being frustrating and overly reliant on microtransactions, as players feel compelled to spend money or grind through repetitive missions to progress.

“Worst plot to get someone to pay into it.”
“Game flings you off your bike if you attempt wheelies or even land slightly 'wrong' and some quests you will complete then it will say screw you and not let you complete it.”
