A sandbox world full of possibilitiesĭue to the fact that this is basically a tech demo of an yet unfinished product, the sandbox world is just a collection of ramps, obstacles and various other curious constructions that enable you to crash the vehicle in any way you can imagine. Hence, regardless of how you manage to crash, the vehicle is able to accurately represent the damage and make it increasingly difficult for you to keep going, since the operational components are affected as well. Whenever your vehicle hits something, or lands harshly after a bold jump, it deforms in a very realistic way, taking into the consideration the speed of the impact and the collision angle.
Thus, although nothing is stopping you from driving safely and avoiding the wide variety of ramps spread across the landscape, the fun is kind of lost in the process and you do not get to witness the true power of the game engine.
Let your imagination run wildīeamNG.drive is mostly an experiment concerning car physics and their interaction with the environment, especially when it comes to crashes. Thus, it is rather unfeasible to witness how vehicles react in certain situations, because someone must be exposed to a serious injury risk in order to find out.
Although cars are mostly made out of steel, they quickly crumble under their own weight whenever they crash, putting lives at risk in the process.
