The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many users describing them as "bare bones" and reminiscent of older systems like the N64, while others noted decent visuals and good lighting effects. Performance issues, such as long loading times and lag, were frequently mentioned, especially given the lack of graphical fidelity. Overall, while some aspects of the graphics, like vehicle details, were appreciated, many players feel significant improvements are needed to enhance the overall experience.

“Rcsim2 may not have ground-breaking graphics but what it does have are good enough to enjoy the game.”
“I'm running this on Linux with open source Radeon (r600) drivers on an APU (A10-5800K) and it's fairly smooth at 'beautiful' graphical options.”
“Everything takes way too long to load, considering that the graphics aren't pushing any boundaries.”
“Needs a lot of work still, the graphics are poor and you cannot see the car if it's on the far side of the track.”
“No game should have performance as bad as this, especially when the graphics look like something that came from an old Xbox game!”

Gameplay has received mixed feedback, with some players finding the mechanics and physics rough, leading to confusion, particularly for newcomers. While the game offers enjoyable hours of creative play and polished controls, there are calls for improvements in camera perspectives and a car editor tool to enhance personalization. Overall, the gameplay experience is still evolving, as the game is in early access.
“It is still in early access and yet the controls and game mechanics are very polished.”
“Very enjoyable: can provide hours of gameplay just screwing around, maybe testing your creations, or trying out what others have made.”
“Just one level to help those new RC drivers who are playing around with realistic RC driving mechanics for the first time (like the sharp turning and quick acceleration).”
“Unlike VRC Pro, or real driving for that matter, the views during gameplay do not correspond with how you would naturally follow an RC car.”
“Gameplay, physics, effects, and menus all were pretty rough.”
“One: the gameplay is confusing as hell.”
