First steps when you load in
Step
When the game loads you'll be asked to choose one of the five maps before you spawn. A car selection screen follows, so don't stress about picking perfectly the first time — you can switch later. Before you head out, decide which steering style suits you, then just drive around until the controls feel natural.
- Choose a map pick any of the five to start; you can visit the others later.
- Pick a car try a couple before committing, since you're free to swap at any time.
- Set your steering UI choose between Steering Button UI and Steering Wheel UI.
- Drive freely spend a few minutes just getting used to how your car handles on that map.
