its a joke lol
i fucking hate it when people say that as if the current NFS isnt based off of that just to make the 12 year olds who actually never played the BB games satisfied
mfs asking for UG3 even though we have that already
asking got mw remaster because they cant just buy mw05 and play it as is
Yes, 2015
broke asses can't afford a 20yo console to play their game
or if they have a pc, they're too lazy to emulate
The PS2 goes for as low as like $20 at a pawn shop I'm pretty sure btw
Let's ask for UG4 then lol
Hot pursuit 6?
Lets see
Nfs 3 HP
Nfs hp2
Nfs hp2010
Nfs rivals
Nfs hp2010r
Yeah it would be HP6 you're right
Mw05 is HP?
Really?
I had never heard that
Remember how MW was a concept since before Underground released?
I mean it makes sense why they renamed it
It doenst make much sense as a HP game despite having police
I didn't know that no
Ah, well yeah
Black Box had wanted to make Most Wanted since Underground was in development
But originally it was an idea for a third Hot Pursuit
Understandable then
Kind of like how they had UC as an idea for so long
Prwtty much before Carbon even
And that didn't end up. Happening and sealed their fate
I wonder if it was Undercover that sealed their fate or if it was Prostreet
Or maybe even carbon
Because just like how Heat was Ghoet working on borrowed time, World and The Run were BB working on borrowed time
ProStreet was the start of it
because it wasn't Most Wanted
Then EA rushed Undercover which meant Undercover was unfinished and busted
and that obviously didn't help
EA rushed every game enforcing a yearly release, which is why we got Prostreet to begin with
I love how you used Prostreet as the example

Yeah
Good idea
Rushed to all hell
Same with Undercover
But that got an even worse end of the stick
it was more ambitious than what they could handle
with such a short time limit and limited staff count
The idea was born from "oh shit game a year"
and the idea was they'd make assets and stuff as a framework for the proper game to then use and build on
but in reality it was one studio split in two causing both games to be really, really quite broken
Yesterday I found an unused part of Unbounds map @shy summit
Isn't that most of the map?
inaccessible area?
the bit with the train that travels 2 meters, yeah
Yeh yeh
So nearby that
Is another a bit smaller area
But heavily industrialised and cluttered with buildings and roads
Took a pic on it
Which is kinda just
Unused
There's tons of highway exits and on ramps nearby too
I think I know where you mean
And a pretty cool little bridge that leads into a highway onramp
there's one race that goes through it
It's a pretty cool area
It's fine yeah
Idk
Wanna just cruise around the map later?
See what we can find
Feel like I drove about 20% of the map tbh
Same places over and over
Dope shi
there's not many interesting roads in Unbound so I'll pass thank you
bro just does not like chicago
chicago was pretty aight in WD1
And from what I saw. Extremely heavy
Oh man I love Watch Dogs 1.
gonna try NFS Carbon redux
this was a heat 1 chase
and another one
mfs really want the game to just be immensely hard for no reason at the start lmao
its frustrating
i finish a race and then get shoved into a chase double the length
on another note, i really got some new views on the lore
idk if it was old news or if its actually kinda interesting but, maybe the 300C that let the player go in the intro was Cross?
No
it would make sense because Darius knows him
or well, it probably was but uh
that just wouldn't make alot of sense tbh
From a bounty hunter to suddenly being in a high position in Rockport's PD
well to be fair, Darius does know Cross somehow, maybe theres something behind the scenes idk
yeah that's true
maybe there's some corrupt shit going on idk
it's mostly just another plot hole in reality, a hard one to make sense of on top of that
maybe Cross got the player's number from Darius even tho Mia was the undercover cop its really weird tbh
also all the NFSUG2 player=MW player theories are still dumb and somehow theres still some people that believe them
MW and Carbon weren't originally connected to Underground
but Black Box had thrown that out the window by Undercover
so it's back on the table now
The M3 GTR belonged to Darius, Darius gave it to the player so he can gtfo of Palmont (because i guess the supra would be too notorious or something) then the player got to rockport, Razor wanted that car so he sabotaged it, then the player instead of telling everyone or something he just decided to become most wanted in that city, just to come back to Palmont in that same car, somehow Cross followed the player and caught up (i doubt the player wasn't speeding away) and then did shady shit with Darius, who somehow knows him
too many plotholes, mostly cause Black Box wasn't exactly good at writing a story
that was what the story was supposed to be
but the supra was made canon
and the M3 is a mystery again
ProStreet made the Supra canon since it's been left behind at Super Promotion
the M3 got ruined because of fan service, because it got totaled in Palmont, somehow came back in quite a lot of games after that it reappeared
It only canonically returned in Heat
even in Unbound Razor is canon, and for some fucking reason wants the M3 GTR again
If any sooner, MW12 and No Limits
and for some other fucking reason Razor is in Lakeshore
That isn't hard to explain
He simply got out of prison and moved
Though he's been in Blackridge
well he probably just tracked the car down somehow
Probably heard the news of Mercer, had it found, and got it shipped to Lakeshore
tbh if i stole a car and got busted in it because of the semi-original owner, i would not wanna come back to it
then again, NFS isn't exactly known for greatly written stories
racing games in general
most of the stories feel like filler content
Most Wanted 2005 is a disgrace to story writing and Carbon tried to build it back up into a normal story
Most Wanted's story idea is good but the execution is mid asf
not only the writing but also the acting
"My 60 footer quarter mile, whatever you wanna throw on the table, smokes everything here"
he says as he is the lowest ranked member on the blacklist
Couldn't beat a Golf
Razor and Ryo casually being the worst villains in NFS
also i may just be uneducated in Automobiles but, wtf does he mean by 60 footer? his d... or what?
in terms of acting and writing? true
also Yaz wasn't exactly that hateable, because when the player gets ready to take out some revenge suddenly uh oh plot twist! ||she is no longer the villain ||
I mean she's your childhood friend, she was basically a dumb teenage girl who doesn't know any better
i kinda liked the plot in unbound until that moment, they could have saved it as a post-game
The reason the intro happened was because she was friends with Alec who she was bragging to about the garage
Alec decided to rob Rydell because of that
makes sense
idk why Tess became the villain tho, but i dont mind it as much cause i fucking hate her.
Tess was never a villain
She's just a hustler, she was always just in it for the money lmao
well by the end she did kinda fuck up the deal and just ended up putting the player in danger
Rydell is a homie tho and i love him for that
kinda sad the Alec guy got absolutely no finish, like, we hear he fucked Yaz over and that's that, we just get the cars back and we dont even like, hit back or anything
then again, be the bigger man and dont do more damage as revenge
Heat's story was also imo pretty good
They've all been pretty shit after 2015
Payback's writing and it derailing after the highway heist
Heat should've been more of a revenge story and had Joe as the player AND main protagonist
Payback's story is a wannabe F&F movie
Heat is dissapointing
and Unbound coulda been executed stronger throughout the story, it starts and ends nicely but yeah
Heat's worst mistake is making the NFS girl the main character
i expected Joe to at least appear after the intro in a different way than a reference from Ana
like my man was a victim in the intro only used as the Tutorial formula NFS usually has which is "taste of power"
and then cut to the character creator you used twice in your entire life
People really praise the sense of speed in heat but like
its only there when you're in a way higher end car
otherwise the game just feels sluggish
Heat did all the gameplay right, but messed up many other aspects
and then the cop patch came in

2015 did sense of speed better, Unbound did sense of speed better, and payback felt largely the same
the game was hard and fun, but then 12 year olds complained about the difficulty ||and no supra||
they made them more trash to be honest
like pre-patch could actually get my buttcheeks clenched at times
Which I think was smart
idk why but i found Unbound's pursuits piss easy compared to heat
So the cops aren't too hard for lower skilled players after linkups or whatever
But Gauntlets were ruthless
in my playthrough of unbound i never got busted not even once, but in heat i had times where i skill issued
Because in Unbound your car can actually handle hits
the combat in Heat... true tbh
the car combat in heat is a disgrace to the idea of ramming
Heat's combat is disgraceful to NFS as a franchise
only shunts really deal damage and side-slams are just suicide
Basically you can rear end a crown vic and it'll take them out if you hit them hard enough (top speed while he's just cruising) and you lose half your health in return
speaking of heat's cops, why is the Explorer shown everywhere but never used as a unit
Ghost failed to bring in a LOT of things
why isn't Shaw even like a special unit? sort of like Cross in MW, that would be a very cool thing if i say so myself
They were too focused on the Not Payback part
and the getting fucked over by EA part
2 content updates
in a game that lasted 3 years
oh no
Criterion pushed those out
Ghost was dead before Heat even came out
Which was a bad move
I think Criterion should've made Heat with Ghost there for support
in heat's lifespan, forza and the crew were getting big updates every few weeks or months, and then Fh5 came out and got a few more, but NFS Heat got a new AM which was basically already in the game but with a new bodykit and a McLaren F1 with an ugly bodykit and then yup
that would be a good way to do it, like a mirroring of Rivals
It coulda built off of the Rivals thing
Could be a reason as to why cops have been ramping up in Heat, Unbound, and NL
Heat does feel a lot like rivals with the progression a bit
the way you earn rep is a lot like Speedpoints in Rivals
I think he was a cop, transferred to try and catch you (hence he was so aggressive in MW05 start) then became a bounty hunter specifically to chase you alone
also on this, just no lol
Criterion was far too small at that time being support only aka no leads.
Also what would it achieve switching it around, it would probably just result in another Rivals situation
"Saving" heat would require EA to not scrap a studio after EAs own mistakes
Ghost was effectively shuttered before Heat launched
Heat became the best selling game in NFS history
then we got Criterion and one of the worst selling games in NFS history
I think I can say that safely looking at statistics
It didn't do well
and I blame the marketing more than anything
and I know that because the first NFS games people think of whenever I end up mentioning NFS are either Payback or Heat
I tell them about Unbound and they go "There's a new NFS???"
So a ton of people don't even know it exists
That's where they mostly fucked up, is marketing
Unbound flew under the radar
marketing didn't help but the game also was less appealing than Heat
if you were there during and after the reveal that was clear
also, Heat didn't have crazy marketing either
Heat had a lot more marketing than Unbound
plus Unbound wasn't revealed until a good month from launch
Heat at least had half the year
as for the appeal, I only really see that affecting the nfs fans
though granted there are people who are playing Unbound as their first NFS, either that or it was Heat or Payback
but a few of them go in expecting to hate it and end up loving it
player counts don't say so
Steam is pretty representative tbh
if a games popping off it's popping on all platforms
PS will have a higher playercount for racing games on average I'll give you that
it's up 800 or so
for context for everyone, this is Payback
which didn't launch on Steam
so it's all time peak for a launch game is 2k less than a game a lot of people would have bought on Origin etc
and then I can again bring Heat into the mix which just says it all
send that across all platforms
idk it's just stats
its just stats yes
then again you can also look to the community and people who play the game
for instance
and imma try to be unbiased, there are people who still prefer heat obviously
but they'd rather play unbound for the simple reason that heat doesnt have much in terms of multiplayer
this was before Vol.7 btw
LOL
multi helps sure
again though, stats don't lie
NFS is also a weird holdout for the singleplayer too
just peer into user reviews
this is where the majority of players will air their frustrations
reddit is with the "core" players, but even with them there's a distinct lack of Unbound love
there's mainly just "I want black box back" and "oh we have multiplayer again"
and it's not even good multiplayer xd
I gave this one an award lmao
yeah it's a pretty good review after what they did to Ghost tbh
No, that's just EA ever since they became
I mean can you imagine what they'd have done with Rivals if Criterion was kept on it
LMAO best review
Criterion have a habit of polishing thin paint
No but then yes
I've just realised you'll need to have done car bodywork or have a hobby in models to get that xd
I agree, I always thought Need for Speed, be it 2015, The Run, Heat, Unbound, doesn't matter
NFS should be a $40 game
$30 probably even better
every game shouldnt cost more then 70
imo
unless the value of these games proofs me wrong
this was a thumbs up
Nfs limits
this guy says it well
Lack of offroading is a positive
hard disagree on this. Making your smoke cartoony isn't flipping the genre ln it's head
the games literally one of the most cookie cutter NFS games to date
(they only had two shapes of cookie cutters though)
eh
I give it a 7.5 on the moist meter
This guy is the truth 😤
Schizophrenia
7.5 isn't great for a game review though, that's average
damn people be making a whole essay just to get proven wrong now because it got many great updates

Most modern AAA games are 2.5/10 at best

I mean not really, nothing about his review got fixed with updates
We gotta compare it to the competition
That's my review
Starfield is a 4/10 slop
Motorfest 6/10
FH5 5.5/10
What other games were made
Oh yeab
fair enough
I forgot about Payday 3
Yeah it just exists
and I was talking about it 2 days ago
Lmfao
Halo Infinite 4.5/10 cos story was kinda fun
the average is 55%
or moreso 6-7.5
recent reviews are actually lower than all time on Unbound too
guess it's because the Underground update didn't have much underground XD
It was Underground inspired, it's not trying to turn the game into Underground
But coloring the shit, adding underground themed parts, and adding an entire game mode from Underground, idk how that wouldn't be enough
i mean they tried especially since its a small team
They did try
Good effort
for what I presume is like 7 blokes/blokettes, yeah
Special autistic ops
not enough for me to stick around
fair
too inconsistent, and I can play fiveM for that drift model
Yellow RX7 with burned bumper near the exhaust tip
the classic
lmao
Goat bound sexual relationship
anyway
kisses
the steam deck I hear mixed results from friends
Some say Unbound runs fine on theirs
Others say it can't handle Unbound
oh the unbound PC port is one of the worst in the franchise
Bamboozlery
fuck no
yeah
Unbound's PC port is awful but I wouldn't say one of the worst
it's slow as shit on my 7900xt
modded assetto runs more consistently
on my old 1070 it was unplayable with FSR
yeah not suprised tho
like it's just actually an awful port
Those titles go to ProStreet, Undercover, The Run, and Carbon
Unbound runs fine on my laptop lmao
ProStreet and The Run are unplayable without scripts and workarounds no thanks to their servers shutting down, Undercover refuses to work until I either downgrade the version or my own PC, and Carbon just fucks up constantly
and on period hardware too
Carbon and Undercover DO NOT like my PC because it's too good
Unbound runs fine, it sucks sometimes but most of my issues were with the launcher, not the game itself
interesting
Carbon????
Yes, the cutscenes go silent and then I get softlocked
I actively have to lower my core count everytime I play it so I just started playing it on my PS2 instead
Never had this
That feels like an issue with the crack tbh
maybe
yet another pointlessly hard pursuit
what mod are you playing with?
holy shit thats such an underrated op car fr
easily beats any car in the game
https://youtu.be/4VDIljQMRgs?si=ux_DtqrDfyt8q6Tf but looking at this, i find it sad that most of the kits didn't get reused for the other nfs games

NFS Carbon Redux
wanted to try it out for the extra cars
ended up staying for the difficulty
cause the Heat 1 cops are better than base game Heat 5 cops
i even encountered Craugh on Heat 2
oh, so it's like "battle royale" then
MW05 also has one of the most annoying NFS songs of all time
What is it
B Side Wins Again
The intro version sounds cool
and then the actual song comes on and holy shit it gets annoying fast
I’ve played the black box games thank you very much
Sorry if that topic is practically a dead one but it’s the one I saw when I checked the blog
The point is people want the old school style nfs back
even though we've had it back for almost a decade now
that one part with like the shitty siren sfx is not even music
also i hate You'll be Under My Wheels by The Prodigy
sue me
IRAQ IRAQ IRAQ IRAQ IRAQ
Though it sucks that Firestarter was left out as MWs trailer music
its kinda catchy but makes my head hurt hearing "I rock" and "I roll"
especially in a long race
Firestarter would go fucking hard in MW12
Need for Speed™ Most Wanted Gameplay Video -- E3 2012 Official
Introducing the first ever gameplay footage of Criterion Games' highly anticipated Need For Speed Most Wanted. Watch as an epic race through the city turns into a frantic open world cop chase with spectacular consequences.
To be Most Wanted, you'll need to outrun the cops, outdrive...
It would man
lots of Fat Of The Land would fit in MW12
also No Tourists (song), We Live Forever, Champions of London and TimeBomb Zone would fit in NFS
i fucking love the prodigy
also Nasty (Spor Remix) from NFS 2015 goes hard
hugely disappointed we didnt have any prodigy after that as far as im aware
fucking banger
These two in Shift
love this song in MotorStorm Arctic Edge
Omen was my introduction to Prodigy
still probably my favorite song
making me wanna play NFS Shift now
The handling is messy but god Shift is fun
Shift 1 has stronger soul to it but Shift 2 is probably better in every other way
because Shift 2 (i am not fully sure maybe it was shift 1) has a polish song in it and as a polish man i am obviously addicted to poland in media
Pull Up is a banger
in terms of gaming soundtracks in racing games my all time favorite is DiRT Showdown
heavily underrated
in terms of NFS
its a tie between Underground, ProStreet and 2015 for me
For me, ProStreet, Undercover, 2012, and 2015
MW 2012 has an underrated soundtrack
the only song people mention is Fireflies and Hurricanes
Butterflies*'
but yeah
Blue Ghosts by Riverboat gamblers is a banger
also Light Goes off by RuN Riot
Payback soundtrack was underrated
Empathy
bad opinion
best nfs mw05 song
and when it plays at the end of tokyo drift its heat
burnout paradise and revenge for me
Honestly Underground 2 and most wanted 05 are my go to nfs soundtracks! Burnout revenge however, all time favorite racing game ost!
UG2 and MW05 have mid soundtracks
I love Blinded in Chains, Decadence and UG2s soundtracks but
They're kinda mid
idk with nfs i like mw05 and heat, i like mw12
only one i dislike is unbound
the A$AP stuff is good but theres wayy better rappers and hiphop they couldve got on there which is modern
logic, some new eminem, kendrick, ty$
sorry but i dont think charlie xcx fits hip hop.
Erm actu-🤓☝️
Carbon better
Bottom text
true asf
the electronica playlist in carbon fucks hard, and its basically unfair advantage mentioning the OST
Hot take: HP2 NuMetal > MW05 NuMetal
thats just a fact
Hot take: NFSUG2 is mid
UG2 is solid, the campaign is an absolute bore but everything else is just nice
I can play it because I want the customisation
I play it because modding it is fun
It's good practice and a good medium for trying out designs
Lool smoked them all regeras the fact i could barely keep up with a svj coupe is wild
yet people shit on the Aventador
Ikr
I was drifting with a rental car
there is no meta in drift pro
Ive seen people drift in pickups
Drifto
You can drift almost anything
True
So long as it puts power to the back wheels
Its weird still but it works
More so than power you'll need torque to keep it going I think
I should try drifting a Z4
bc this one guy was complaining it doesn't have enough power for him to make good points
it was engine swapped btw
I'll build a Z4 sometime and whoop ass
No, it's a Z4
Not like it's comparable anymore tbh
It's frankly ridiculous how much of that car is a BMW.
It's practically 90%
All Toyota did was style a new body, tune suspension and slap the badge on it
People were pissed but that isn't a new practice lol
The Ford Probe is just a Mazda MX-6
The SRT4 Neon is a sports coupe PT Cruiser
The Eclipse is a Sebring, or the other way around I think
Yeah but the Supra is the modern day version of it
And in modern day, there's the power of internet
Meaning it will spread alot faster and harder then car makers do this
As a wise man once said. The internet did not create stupidity, it simply spread it all over the world.
I guess what pissses people off especially is how they wanted a new Supra so badly and they were teased such a cool concept car
it's the blind fanboyism of people who never udnerstood the Supra was a failure of a sub-brand and never got Toyota anywhere.
And Toyota never will bring it back after the MK5 either since all Sports cars are dying.
ICE sports cars are dying*
Unless Toyota and whatever other companies are working on it can get it out there, hydrogen is the only alternative.
They never will get it out there
and it won't make it, not anytime soon
They only tell us sweet little lies.
Oh no, they have hydrogen cars out and about
and they work
It's just that hydrogen right now is expensive
There's a differnece between having them out, and having them be popular and successful
So it's onlt really seen (in the US at least) in California
Yeah and in an era where everyone is getting ready to go fully electric, this is the timing for hydrogen to come back in
It had no place in the 90s, same with electric back in the 1800s
And given even Electric cars are finding it difficult to find a proper market world wide, doubt that'll happen.
Regardless of that
Wait, you can actually change the collor of these wheels? I thought it was permanent on one💀
I imagine the reason the Supra blew up particularly was both because of internet and the word of mouth
And the fact that people are simply too eager for that car
And I'd say they got lucky, at least the new Supra didn't end up becoming a crossover
unlike a certain other famous and beloved sports car, or two, the Puma and Capri
And eclipse
Yup, goes without saying
B tier races in a nutshell
bruh wtf happened to unbound
as in
Guess the rise to relenavance caused it
EU servers were always like this
Yeah it sucks how almost every kid picks the testarossa fucking cringe
They got definitely upset that the B pista is gone for sure😂
Im trying to unlock the evo 9 so i can use it on B class seen its doing much better than my nsx and 180sx
Do they even know why this car is in the game?
Dont think they're smart enough to know that
Anyways we should push Criterion to add an E Class to Unbound
All E classes should come
Including the pre courser to them
W123 and W124
Frankly turn NFS into Mercedes-Benz simulator
Basically play World Racing 1 xd
cue cp music
Pffft
I didn't realize how it sounded out of context
But yeah, World Racing 1 is ridiculous
I ain't exaggerating when I say
Every single Mercedes-Benz up until the date of this game's release.
And yes that means 20 different trims of each model.
bruh
BROOOOO
i fucking remember playing that game years ago
one of the best games ive enjoyed as a kid
It's an extremely in-depth game indeed.
it really is
its probably one of the most unqiue among the slew of one make racing games.
yes
Hell, so much so that the 2nd game isn't even a one make game anymore.
It's still available on Steam, though they had to slightly alter the names and models to avoid licensing.
A ton of mods are available for it however.
damn
Infraction x Aim to Head - Falling
Not that one
W211 or W212 instead
oh no plz not that mercedes
yeah we are lacking mercedes models in unbound
Literally the worst looking E Class
190 E was definitely a nice addition but still not my cup of tea
||oh wait nvm the w214 exists||
Come ooooon
it looks so gooooood
It's a very unusual look admittedly
That's the w212
Mixing the quad headlight design with newer one piece headlights
is that the mercedes benz E63 AMG 2010?
I was talking about the w210
LMAO i was exactly looking for that car on google
W210 is the nicest
Mmhm
Actually the best looking Benz is the '07 C230 Sport but still
But like I said nvm the W214 exists
I don't think the W210 is bad looking.
Thing with Mercedes is
You have to understand the design phases they had
It's such a nice and classy car
its not but also ehh i dont like it by alot
This was the era of Mercedes' entrance into the 2000s
I'd love to drive one when I get old
Mercedes are for old people? xd
Black, slammed on some Lownharts
My dad's middle age crisis car was the C230 Sport lol
with an AMG exhaust system
those old mercedes were truely a beast
You know what NFS should add?
The World's most perfect sedan
The Mercedes W124 500E
Nicknamed "The Wolf"
Makes me happy that somebody recreated the car in Unbound
Even if it's the smaller of the twins, the W190
Buy a real AMg.
I will just buy a Nissan tbh
or if I want luxury, a DeVille would be cool
albeit, it won't be so luxurious anymore
People like you who have a higher preference for Japanese stuff will always gravitate towards their offerings.
I grew up with Mercs around me and on TV.
So an old Mercedes is simply the dream.
I just don't want to deal with the problems of a German car lmao
Eh, older Mercedes were bullet proof
not as bulletproof as your cuteness

the reason why I’m slowly drifting away from frequently playing mp pvp games
but at least S class isn’t RSX clusterfuck
still waiting for Testarossa to be unable to go down to B class
they need to do that to every fucking hyper sport whatever car that isnt base A or B class
like why would you detune a high class car into B class? what do you gain from detuning fast cars?
get over with this kids😭
the meta is bullshit here
I was thinking of making a server for some proper pvp
different leagues and all
unswapped leagues, no meta anywhere whatsoever, crew battles, etc.
or a similar thing that MCLA had
actually nvm
that’d be only restricting forced induction types
testarossa is A+ class
if I’m right you can’t set any car down more than two levels from stock
well fuck guess it depends on the car ig?
well like the s class rsx meta it isn’t going anywhere unfortunately
unless they add new cars to change up the meta
True
or until i keep throwing cars at it until i get a breakthrough
We'll see wat will happen next
Hopefully they will fix that
Because no other higher tier should be competing with low class cars civic etc.
issue is getting someone to join a tier b race
Well in pvp mode theres alway people joining
Free roam its hard but sometimes they do but then they rage quit..
Mods:-
Rivals + mod by GrabussPC: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/2654
cops2racers mod by Hypernucle: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/1182
Framerate unlocker mod by Brawltendo: https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/5133
The filters are just gone
"ultra realistic graphics" when they just remove the PostFX and make them game look less appealing
Still.good to see Rivals.
looks chinese to me
TO be fair, it does look like NFS edge
which was a chinese version of Rivals and on the same engine.
you can’t park there mate
Pfft
LF someone who can help me finish the take downs in unbound
I can help out rq
Sure
call?
no
Volume 8 is almost there!1!1!1!11111!!!!
too laaaaaate
Almost
Where is iiiiiiiit
Meow
boop
xd
okay i think the heat RSR kids are more prevalent than anything
next race two of em broke out the 200gtr
Damn
Well i always see people use the R8
I never had any problems with the rsr kids in heat tho
Fucking hell
helling fuck
Because of the lack of actual mp?
Man, the rare times a random actually did want to race, they were 8/10 times an RSR kid
for me i ran into more Evos and F1s than anything
i once had a miata that could have outran RSRs but one power outage later it mysteriously disappeared
i mean i did race alot of them but managed to beat the living shit out of them since 80% ive faced were trash at driving lmao
me in 2015
Impressive
majority of RSR users had zero driver prowess
if anything majority were chronic rammers lol
14 days
Almost there!1!1!1!1!11111!!!!
Yooooo

Lol
Do anyone have a crew in need of speed heat
Someone send the gif please
which one?
Read the message above mine and you will get it
In heat
i do have a crew tho but cant get into heat my ea play has expired long ago
Dam
every single ghosts crew or any random lvl 50 crew is probably public
Oh god
True
When i joined into a crew automatically i became the leader and made the crew better than ever lol
I built mine solo from the ground up
Atleast you did from the ground up unlike turn10
so true
shit I also circled “solo”
Lmao
joined just as it ended lol
if you know my stances on underground 2, its obvious i have a massive fucking red mist over this game, especially the career mode
which is why im setting out a challenge to beat the game
me preparing to get past 2 races in the game
barely opened up the game for 5 minutes and im already having issues
lmfao
i hate URL races :))))))
i do love the drifting tho, the drifting in UG2 kinda fun
the model that only appeared in need for speed carbon of all the nfs games
I love the XK
I never understood why future games didn't get it
Its barely even remembered being in this game due to its insane unlock procedure
Bros playing in 25p
25 polygons
in A class PVP and there’s a speed glitcher in a R34 with Walker’s livery
can see why they speedglitch
Jesus chrrkh man
imagine speedglitching and still only managing 2 seconds ahead lmao
does anyone know if nfs unbound progress saves across multiple pcs?
im contemplating buying it cause its on sale but i'll prolly be playing the game in an internet cafe cause i'll be back in college
You all remember the old days the crew 1
Sir, this is a Need for Speed forum.
already reported the user under “offensive gameplay” or something like that
i mean cheating in a racing game is so lowbrow
i honestly could tell this mfer’s age wasn’t in the double digits because his r34 had the paul livery but zero bodykit customization
Lmao
and the aforementioned “lack of knowing how to turn”
Rofl even
funnily enough if there was a race with more corners than straights he’d only win with a two second gap tops
That's good
Holy shit that 959 is W I D E
WAIT THE INSTAGRAM ONE HAS MUSIC
Thursday's gonna be a hell of a throwback 🚔
#NeedForSpeed
Damnn
The music might be from high stakes
Song: Projectile Comet (Intermission theme 2)
Artist: Jeff Van Dyck & Saki Kaskas
Album: NHL 97
Year: 1996
Genre: Metal
Chel FM
Original air date: July 3, 2018
#NHL97 #NHL97Soundtrack #NHL97OST
but the link I found shows NHL
so maybe, maybe not
wait that doesnt make sense hang on
ok yeah its just nhl
fitting but funny
A real bad man
makes sense it is from an EA game so they probably can use some songs easily
cringe meta car especially being used by some lvl 200 that never touched grass before
tired of these kids
im glad my Ford GT s class can hold up to those well
he’s got a Golf too
like how tf lol
(ik ik i bumped him i see)
@magic halo this mfer has a p1 gtr in S class
LMAO all of them R8💀
P1 GTR in S class??? Wtf
one thing i like about the current Porsche rendition i got going on is it pulls on R8s
but that skyline is a whole other beast
True
it is ridiculously stable and oddly nimble
so back to throwing 500k at cars to find a counter
unfortunately that’s my luck half the time
take a more speed oriented angle in corner-oop there’s a npc
Im more carefull around these sweats i dont wanna push the hardest and end up facing a car at the wrong timing
Oof
anyways I’m goofing around with the centrifugal supercharger
because fuck turbos and the bias they get
also because other superchargers aren’t that powerful
I rarely use the centrifugal supercharger but it works for sure
update: so far looks like am building a viper
It is in most classes
It goes pretty good on A+
thoughts on which class the 959 is gonna be busted in
From the looks i believe A+/S
Volume 7 Retrospective
Between the largest drift scores and the most-picked cars, here's the run down on Volume 7 before cops and racers wreak havoc in the streets of Lakeshore.
Full end of Volume report here.
|| @News ||
Im impressed seeing the E92 there
This is quite interesting
Can anyone help me with Unbound?
I need one person to assist pursuits with a Mustang
I can help
Are you the Zephyr from Rivals?
Heh
That's alot.
Thats where I took the name from so yeah 50% correct on this one
@pine sleet I’m back
Can we do it?
Ofc
Pfft
Yeah
just one day left
17 hours
Literally the R34 skyline as Japanese police car is insane FUCKK YEAHHH
Seems like they also fixed the issue with the chopper being annoying to escape from. Thank god
welcome back need for speed rivals
welp guess i now have a incentive to finish the livery on my vic lol
Would be sick if we also get police smoke and license plate would make your own cop car actually complete
can you even use the cop cars in freeroam
Nope
no this update is crazy limited
I thought we would be able to free roam as a cop
you mean “hot pursuit mode in pvp and freeroam”
apparently they mean the meet-up things (where you start races)
Hmm
probably picked freemode because joining mp you can either go freeroam or pvp
still tho this cash boost on the cop playlist go crazy
went from 250k to a mil
Yeah same
yup same
This is insane
im not complaining at all lmao
some mfer has a Pagani in S class lol
i somehow got one busted
tho i got put in a lobby where everybody goes for first place thank god i picked the viper lol
got busted because someone put spikestrips directly infront one of those tiny ass checkpoints
mfw everyone and they momma goes for first and ignores everyone else 😐
Yeah thats annoying
nah you're evil
Are there any new races made for this mode?
This is what playtesting looks like
yes yes you've made your point already
PC version is close to unplayable also
lie
Nah just only people who can do more then us console players
When im going to ask fahim about unbound he will say the game is totally fine on pc
Guess he got too frustrated with the cops vs racers event
Doesnt mean its unplayable💀
it can be frustrating when you're teamed up on, I can get that but
thats kinda every event anyways
some bullshit happens, be it a bug, a skill issue, a rammer, a meta cuck, etc.
Though I don't really get frustrated when I lose unless it's some bullshit, so getting ganged up on was just fun
I made it to the start of the final stretch in a race before they finally got me
I probably coulda done better had I not uh
detuned my M3 to brake to drift
Game runs worse than before, and it's already unoptimised
And I noticed significant input latency issues, I had burst not just not register at all once
oh hell yeah
I mean if they annoy you as a cop you can just spawn up ahead
OH THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED
That regera has no chance at all lmao
The evija is the fastest car in the game
And drives pretty amazing
I didn’t place that there lol
redeploy sometimes puts you facing a wall based on where the racers are
"Skyfall left your game"
yeah happens really frequently
That's unfortunate
Satisfying
Yeah sucks when people instantly rage quit
apparently the cop cars don’t scale with set perf levels
so you can go up against A class cars in S and above cop cars
such a oversight lol
@shy summit
😬 no thought head empty game design
