'WRC 7' Reviews: Gameplay is Difficult, Just Like Real-Life Rallying
The rallying video game "WRC 7" is finally out, and many gaming pundits agree that its gameplay is not the most ideal for rallying game newcomers.
"WRC 7" allows its players to virtual experience traveling to the four corners of the earth as they take part in the World Championship's 13 rallies, located across 15 countries on 4 continents. While the virtual travel offers various sights to behold, it is said that the game really puts the players' driving skills to the test as they drive along difficult technical tracks, such as snow, gravel, asphalt, mud. As the game progresses, it becomes even more challenging as the roads become narrower, longer, and life-threatening.
Players experience a super race in every continent featured in the game, wherein their driving skills are challenged as they race along difficult tracks for almost 20 minutes. As it is a race, it goes without saying that it is but natural for cars to experience damages. However, as there are no upgrades to a team's car parts or skills, players have to solely rely on their driving skills.
A driver's performance in "WRC 7" affects his team's morale, which, on the other hand, determines the quality of car repairs in the service area at the end of each day. A team's morale is also influenced by how a player matches their preference to racing as some may want to go all-out while others prefer that the car is protected.
Overall, gaming pundits agree that "WRC 7" is a very specific type of driving game. While there is no denying that it is an enjoyable game, apart from having really impressive and realistic graphics, it is not the easiest game around not only for beginners but even for experienced racers as some parts of its stages are tricky, just like the real-life rallying.
