Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, particularly due to long loading times and an unbalanced economy that requires extensive grinding to upgrade equipment. While the deep career mode and visually impressive arenas are appreciated, the grindy unlock system detracts from the overall experience.
“It’s just a shame those monstrously long loading times and a needlessly grindy unlock system takes away some of its shine.”
“Long load times that occur often, out of whack economy that will have you grinding for hours just to upgrade one part of your bike, no commentary during races.”
“It’s just a shame about the tedious loading times.”

Monster Energy Supercross 2 Review - PS4
Fans of the sport will love the authenticity and vast tweaking options onboard, while the rest of us can enjoy a decent two wheeled off-road racer which looks the part. It’s just a shame about the tedious loading times.
