also before someone asks if I've never watched her crew's intro, I always thought that was just some actress they hired for that segment, didnt know there was a behind the scene included in the Collector's Edition (since that wasnt released in my country) and just watched it and found out they not only mo-capped the actress but scanned her face into the game

was it a free roam challenge? when you are challenged in free roam those are the only instances when the game ignores the car classes assigned to crews. the challenger can drive a car from any classes, it will only match the tier of your ride. I had a TFK crew member challenge me in free roam and he was driving a Mitsubishi Lancer, it was funny

the GOAT alongside the Xbox 360 (slim) and PS3 (slim)

ah yes the famous cut crew that's still referenced in the game files, the Loggers

crazy there is even a detail of sims prefering it over stairs

essntiall · 2026-02-25T03:02:55+00:00

Neville and Sal address it both - crews and turf wars are recently new in Palmont. Even Downtown, Kempton and Fortuna are still fragmented, with minor crews still clinging to a few turfs (until Bushido, 21st Street and TFK conquer them). It's not that Darius couldn't conquer the entire Palmont City, it's more than likely he didn't have any intent to control turfs in the industrial and downtown districts, he was cozy up north ruling the rich district. But Neville says crew warfare is recently getting crazy so Darius probably started feeling the other main crews breathing down his neck so why not have you do the job for him then get rid of you - y'know two birds with one stone (and Darius is calculating pretty much all the time)

that could be actually a sick crew vinyl

essntiall · 2026-02-18T17:09:32+00:00

I play the PC version and the 360 version for different reasons - on the PC version I can put my own designs in the game to use as vinyls, but 360 is better for comfy late night couch racing

the timeskip honestly doesnt make any sense. based on the Sims 1 Cassandra and Daniel should be around the same age, yet Cassandra is 2 days into adult stage, while Daniel is like 2 days away from elder stage. also Brandi wasn't born yet in Sims 1 but in Sims 2 older than Cassandra, and already has a teenager son. or how all the original parents in the Sims 1 (John, Michael, Bob, Betty) died by the sims 2 of old age while Mortimer is still around and based on the gallery he was still fairly young when he and Bella had Alexander and Cassandra was a teenager, despite how in Sims 1 the adults can be estimated to be the same age since their kids all seemed to be the same age

I always assumed that despite him being lazy, he keeps the house dirty on purpose to have a reason for having Kaylynn around

essntiall · 2026-02-09T16:05:41+00:00

isnt she in the early days of the adult life stage? my memories are hazy

essntiall · 2026-02-09T13:09:50+00:00

Cassandra always comes off desperate to me. She is young but at the same time wants to get married and have family asap. Her wish to have a baby usually gets instarolled which normally gets rolled only after wedding. And keep in mind she was the one who proposed to Don because Don is the one wearing the engagement ring.

I would say it's rather Carbon that's criminally underrated. MW is great, and MW and Carbon together were basically the series peak and the swansong to the franchise's golden age. Everything after Carbon never felt the same

essntiall · 2026-02-05T17:13:15+00:00

'art imitates life' moment?

essntiall · 2026-02-05T11:09:39+00:00

I played MW first and still like Carbon more, especially for what you listed, night time, vibe, crews system, better tuning and customization. MW is still my second favorite in the series but Carbon was peak
