Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Dedicated fans have finished the server emulator. For now it's single player only, but they want to release multiplayer later.

You have to get the actual game files yourself (for obvious reasons), but you can find them easily, for example in the internet archive.

I'm in the middle of the campaign right now, and so far it works flawlessly.

And since this was the only racing game I played on a regular basis, I am happy! Fuck you Ubisoft! Thank you dedicated fans!!

Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I'm just mildly irritated.

Good for pc players though, it's something!

If you have a PC or Laptop there is a good chance you could get it running, the game is pretty "old" and doesn't scream for a high end gaming rig. Maybe that would be an option.

Yeah, a pc that runs the Crew well would be fairly cheap now. If you can't just get one donated to you that would otherwise be going to the dump, picking one up from a garage sale or something would be pretty cheap. And you can hook a pc to a TV, set Steam to launch with Windows and enter bigscreen mode when it does. Steam bigscreen mode is used with a controller and has an option to turn off the computer in it's menu. So you could do without a keyboard and mouse 99% of the time.
