BeamNG.drive has come a long way from being just a sandbox crash-your-car game. How well does it fare as a rally sim, though? Emily wants to find out.
There is no denying that BeamNG.drive is near the top of the list for car-based games and sims with a great damage model. The title's node-based physics and soft-body damage are the source of entertainment for many who enjoy flinging cars off a cliff or into a tree.
But there is much more to BeamNG.drive than that. The sim has progressed steadily, albeit slowly. And its unforgiving damage makes it a perfect platform for a rally sim, complete with the danger of your day being over always looming if you hit a rock ever so slightly in the wrong spot.
How well does it actually work as a rally sim, though? @Emily Jones took a closer look to find out - maybe the next rally gem is already available right now.
