Today, will be posting my essay on the new FR Legends update. I will be giving a quick recap on what happened in the community in the whole year, my thoughts on the new update and i decide whether the update is worth the wait or not. I'm going to gloss over some certain stuff about the this new update as i will mainly focus on the new update's feature itself. Let's dive in. Back in 2022, we have received the 0.3.2 update which featured the Mazda Eunos Roadster/MX-5/Miata, new stickers and new wheels. Everybody was quite happy with the 0.3.2 update as it is packed with new features. Few months later, people all over the community started asking each other when will the developers Feng and Illey release a new update. New year's passed and we still don't get news until one day, someone on Instagram posted a picture that a new car will be added into the next update, this got people excited. And then 2 days before the update, a beta tester was playing the game making public rooms giving hints that the update is near. Many people at the same time said it was fake as those players edited their apk to make it seem legit 0.3.3 update. Well, today(February 4, 2022). The game released its new update and had people excited.
The new car is the Mazda RX-7(FD3S). From a standpoint far away it looks good but if you see the car personally in the game, it doesn't look as good as you might've thought. The car is eqquiped with the 13B-REW engine but its stock power output isn't accurate to real life as the real life version makes 255 Horsepower not 276 Horsepower. My 2nd issue about the new car is how it is modeled, sure i can appreciate that the developers(Feng and Illey) managed to get it somewhat right in terms of height, width and length while still fitting into FR Legends proportions compared to the previous car(Miata/Eunos/MX-5) which is too big and too tall to really say it is accurate. But the FD's overall model has a rough finish which is my issue with it. The 3rd and last issue i have is limited customization options. Sure, we have the Rocketbunny, sure we have the RE Amemiya and sure we have the later model bumped but besides that, the car's customication options is not enough to say it is a good update.
Is this update worth the wait? well, in my opinion, no. Last update was a big bang but it was because of that banger of an update that the people all over the community expected something bigger in the next update and they failed to make an update that lives up to the fans hype. The word i would use to describe the 0.3.3 update is "lazy". The game's developers are lazy. They had 8 months to create another banger of an update but blew it when the update finally came out.
So about the Initial D Specs list video, i've decided to restart the whole project from scratch, i've decided to move my plans on doing the specs of Wataru's supercharged AE86 as the 2nd video of the series, instead, Takeshi's R32 will be the first video as finding all of the parts his R32 has in the manga, anime and Legend trilogy. I've also decided to voice my video rather than just post subtitles so i can be able to explain more.
We have finally finished the first part of FR Legends Battle Stage. We will temporarily stop uploading videos about this series as we will start shooting races. So far, race #1 of the second half is finished.
