There's some ridiculously obvious AI rubberbanding going on which sucks. Why must this still be a thing when it's a thing that's complained about in virtually every game it was implemented in?

The theme of the game is also kinda meh, the whole followers and public stream live craze and stuff that basically is a copy of Forza Horizon 3; Cars are still the forte, and flying and boats events feel kinda shabby. Why even allow you to tilt the boat back to get more speed. There seems to be physically no reason to tilt the boat forward to go slower, and overall this just seems like poor design.

Other than that, I also don't like how heavy the handling / vehicles feel. It feels like every racing games released lately have this thing going on while it supposedly makes them feel more realistic. I hated this in Forza Horizon 3, I hate it here. I don't have a racing wheel, I have a Xbox controller, and it feels mildly awful... but I did get used to it about 2 hours in.

Everything else however has been improved as far as I am aware.

I don't feel the rubber banding to be that bad to be honest, once you upgrade your vehicle and make it faster the races starts to get easier.

agreed, the game feels very optimized.

I played a few hours of the game, here's what I think. The boating is definitely the part of the game that falls short imo. If I pick up the full game, I won't be touching the boats unless absolutely necessary. Flying feels good, but driving is still the star of the show. The way the demo splits up the disciplines feels strange, I think it should've just been split up into different vehicle types instead of different categories of sports. The ability to hotswitch between the three vehicle types in freeroam is my favorite part of the game, and I hope it's utilized in races in some way.

I like the idea of splitting into different categories, I've seen some people who don't wanna play with the planes or boats so street racing can only allow you to use cars and bikes.

That's true. It's good for the street racing category, but they've also locked professional racing behind the boat racing. Driving F1 cars around a circle may not be the most exciting thing, but I'd want those cars in freeroam ASAP dammit.
Also, on the activities page on the start menu, you can see there are supposed to be more races in the game similar to the one the beta opens up with. If those races are required to unlock more content in the game, then you'll be forced to grind parts for the types of vehicles you don't like until they're good enough to win.

the only thing I'm hating about this game is the menus are pretty confusing, and the lack of any pause menu too is gay

I have to exit the game by task manager every time lol
