The story in the game is generally viewed as enjoyable but somewhat lacking in depth, with some players finding it annoying and disconnected from the open-world experience. While the main narrative is short, the game offers plenty of replay value through exploration and various missions, though some missions, like transport tasks, are considered silly. Overall, the story serves as a backdrop to a fun and engaging gameplay experience, despite criticisms regarding vehicle handling and narrative integration.
- “This game is so much fun I can't seem to put the controller down. It has a lot of replay value and tons of cars to buy and modify. The great thing about the crew is once you complete the main story, there's still lots to do like exploring and finding landmarks that you can visit to earn extra XP. Great game, I'm glad I finally bought it.”
- “I am giving this 4 stars because I really like the game. The instructions on how to get the monster trucks and motorcycles are not very clear, and also because PSN is required just to play. But otherwise, I would recommend this to any car-game enthusiast because there are missions to do, races, and a lot of cool stuff to experience in this game.”
- “Nice story, but poor car handling. You feel like you are driving on ice all the time. The vehicles are soulless; let's hope the next edition is better.”
- “Story is actually quite annoying.”
- “[Bland story; the narrative does not tie in with the open world aspects of the game.]”
- “Need missions - transport/taxi missions seem silly, but it's an open world map, and people want to cruise on it and make some money doing so.”
