Remember only a majority is on Battlefield

#

The core team gave us a lackluster Volume 5 (but then again masking)

#

and now we're probably gonna eat good for Vol.6

clear star
#

Hopefully...

unborn holly
#

hopefully this one will be massive

dusky wyvern
#

It's been 5 months, it'll be 6 by the time Vol. 6 comes out

#

It'll probably be the case

#

Our last update was December

#

Their last mention of the matter was weeks ago

dusky wyvern
#

What comes first, Vol.6 or CarX Street?

unborn holly
#

carx street

frail axle
clear star
#

Someone should leak something theoBruh

dusky wyvern
#

yeah risk getting sued for everything they're worth

clear star
#

GUYS

#

ITS HAPPENING

knotty spindle
#

Finally Audi is back

clear star
#

But premium speed pass? Idk about that

dusky wyvern
#

@frail axle lookie

dusky wyvern
#

That'll be interesting

dusky wyvern
#

going off that pic and the fact that the Payback Audis were cut during development

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

physics update maybe?

#

perhaps an overhaul

knotty spindle
#

Or maybe a new drift mode entirely

dusky wyvern
#

i dunno

#

oh

#

maybe closed track drifting

knotty spindle
#

Possibly

unborn holly
#

Yoooooo

#

Plz be the R8 too

#

Screw heat unbound on top🔥

#

Also seeing drag makes me happy too

dusky wyvern
#

it's the good r8 too it looks like

#

and my guess the rs7

unborn holly
#

Rs7 not bad then

#

But rs6 would have been a dream to be in nfs

dusky wyvern
#

also its nfs

#

but nfs at it's prime

#

so you know the customization will be peak

clear star
#

Imagine rear bumper removal on the R8😍

dusky wyvern
#

and the stock wing

#

and the black paint

frail axle
#

the back bumper removal is a must if the R8 is coming

#

Because the R8 is pretty much the car that normalized this whole rear bumper delete twin turbo setup that supercars use so often now

#

well, either the R8 or the Gallardo

wild summit
#

They cooked

wild summit
unborn holly
#

In heat some audis got good customization but could get better

clear star
#

Audi legendary Bodykit in the next speed pass?

wild summit
clear star
#

Yes

unborn holly
#

Damn

knotty spindle
# wild summit

You know I would be extremely happy if they add the 1st generation R8

unborn holly
#

That would be sick

#

Like in heat i do wanna see the rs5 too

#

Got this photo for some reason lol

knotty spindle
#

Lmao

alpine canopy
alpine canopy
dusky wyvern
#

Because they were just sloppy leftovers from Payback

unborn holly
#

Oh fr?

#

Fuck man

knotty spindle
unborn holly
#

Yooo 6days

wild summit
vale nacelle
clear star
#

More daytime options would be nice

#

Although the current ones look really pretty

dusky wyvern
#

More weather basically

#

like snow

#

or fall

#

or thunder storms

clear star
#

Absolutely

#

Although snow could probably be hard

dusky wyvern
#

If R* could do it in 2013 and Black Box could do it in 2011 I think Criterion can do it in 2024

#

Just replace the rain textures with snow textures, slow down the particles, make snowy textures to match everything, kill the trees

#

and instead of rain drops, just have some snow over the windows and body instead of dirt

#

basically recolor dirt from brown to white

#

whitewash the dirt

clear star
#

Would be funny if the cars that park on the side had little drawings on them

dusky wyvern
#

This gets one of two reactions

#

Either excitement or cringe.

#

I have the former

frail axle
#

Same

vale nacelle
#

I have both

Q&A with Need for Speed Unbound Team Leads, John Stanley (Creative Director) and Patrick Honnoraty (Senior Producer) hosted by James 'TGK' Bralant. Sharing more info about the new “Kaizen” philosophy of continuous improvement for NFS Unbound’s upcoming Volumes, and answering submitted questions from Reddit.

Q&A happened on /r/needforspeed disco...

▶ Play video
#

yeah

#

drift physics are gonna be overhauled I am certain of it

vale nacelle
#

Hopefully

dusky wyvern
#

So they acknowledge the canyon race requests and say that though it wouldn't be easy they'd look into the idea of intense 1v1 battles

#

Oh boy, Volume 6 will be doing something with single player after all

vale nacelle
#

they're seriously tempting me towards either a new console or a pc

#

Actually you know what

#

It's settled

#

PC it is

#

This year that's what I'm gonna get

dusky wyvern
#

someone asked about the M3 GTR

#

"I thought everyone was sick of the M3"
"no one likes that car anymore"

#

that's hilarious but sadly no

dusky wyvern
#

VOLUME 2 CONFIRMED

dusky wyvern
#

@deep knot I believe Volume 6 will fix matchmaking

#

this guy says wait and see for volume 6

unborn holly
#

Nice to hear

frail axle
#

That's good

unborn holly
dusky wyvern
#

it's the same as heat where its a session with people who dont want to race for whatsver reason

#

except it's dumber because racing is the only way to get anywhere

clear star
#

I'm curious how the premium speed pass will look
Is it like Fortnite where there's an free path and premium path or for example brawl stars where some tiers give you 2 rewards if you have the premium one
(I know brawl stars has a premium path but idk what other game has this)

unborn holly
#

i kinda never had that issue but i get what the problem is

dusky wyvern
#

I imagine it'll be double rewards for premium users

#

and one of the new cars will be thrown in there

unborn holly
#

oo

#

interesting

clear star
#

But criterion would never do something like that
right?

unborn holly
#

i hope they wont

#

but we'll see

dusky wyvern
#

they said they would

#

One new car will be free, one won't

#

actually wait

#

I don't know if they did or not

#

anyways yeah

unborn holly
#

if they gonna do it like that i dont mind actaully

dusky wyvern
#

Yes except they won't be like Heat in the sense that one is a car we already have - the roof

unborn holly
#

pretty cool building your car through winning races

dusky wyvern
#

I doubt Criterion is like that

unborn holly
#

i hope it would be something like that

#

because it was nice imo

dusky wyvern
#

I dunno about that but it would be cool

#

I think they're gonna be unlocked via Speedpass though

#

at least one of them

unborn holly
#

that would make sense

dusky wyvern
#

Volume 6 tomorrow

#

y'all have stopped bitching and I'm in bliss thanks to it

unborn holly
#

Cannot wait at all

maiden marsh
#

I forgot what the update was already lol

dusky wyvern
#

connor

#

You're you

#

so no surprise

dusky wyvern
#

Unpopular Opinion: Unbound should be made to last as long as World did

#

before a new title is made

frail axle
#

I think that's what the're gonna do anyway

#

Given we roughly know there is a new Burnout game coming

#

so they'd realistically support Unbound for as long as they can, until the new NFS game comes over the horizon

dusky wyvern
#

Burnout is iffy now

#

well to me at least

frail axle
#

Bruh

#

You spoke so confidently about it

#

Now I am not sure

dusky wyvern
#

Oh yeah they really made it out

#

but I think it's gonna be it's own thing, similar to Burnout but it's own thing

frail axle
#

that would be a bad idea

dusky wyvern
#

because supposedly they were hiring designers for "creatures" and all that shit

frail axle
#

What?

dusky wyvern
#

Which isn't very burnout

#

Like a monster racer game

frail axle
#

now I'm confused

dusky wyvern
#

I am too tbh

clear star
dusky wyvern
#

I know

#

I'm not talking to you

clear star
#

Ok 🦻🏿

Time to change the 6 to 7

lament yarrow
#

On God

#

Really excited rn

clear star
#

Same lol

vale nacelle
dusky wyvern
#

okay yeah

#

Volume 6 drops tonight after all

#

I was thinking it'd be last night early morning but nah

#

tonight, well before midnight I think

#

unless 14 hours is 14 hours from now and not 14 hours from 6am when thing was posted

#

logically I think it'll be 14 from now so I think that's 2am actually

#

2am MST

unborn holly
#

I see

#

So basically tuesday?

dusky wyvern
#

Tuesday morning yeah

#

shiiiiiit I was wrong lmao

pulsar trellis
#

Hi guys, I have a question (I just installed the game). When the game updates, some cars or some parts may become strong or weak or are they always bound? (nfs unbound)

dusky wyvern
#

I assume you mean do cars get rebalanced

#

Yes, sometimes they do

#

Not often but sometimes

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

It's possible, yes

#

They've mentioned that they're looking into how to go about nerfing the Golf since it's so fucked up

#

If Theo got early access that video should be live in about 38 minutes from now

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

It is possible, yes.

#

The first generation Volkswagen Golf GTI is overpowered and the developers have said that they are mostly concerned about fixing that so it's more balanced.

#

I hope that can go through the translator well, translators are pretty trash sometimes lol

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

Sure

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

???

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

okay

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

I used to play it everyday but I got burnt out

#

I do play it alot still but I'd say like 4 or 5 times a day

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

Since the game released

pulsar trellis
#

So you are old in this game

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

I don't drive S+ very often

#

but I'd say W16 swapped Q60 or Polestar

#

I hear the Polestar is really good

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

Max it out lol

#

It's S+

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

yes

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

S+

#

because there's no max rating for it

#

for every other tier tuning is a little bit more intricate

pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern
#

Whenever I can, sure.

pulsar trellis
#

Thank

pulsar trellis
maiden marsh
#

If you're in a hurry then have a Google or mess around and find out what works best

#

You'll soon get the hang of it

pulsar trellis

Well have a play around, make your own build

pulsar trellis

I mean.... sure???????????

pulsar trellis
# maiden marsh I mean.... sure???????????

I don't have enough command of English and I am communicating with you through a translator. I didn't understand what you meant. Please speak more clearly. Thank you.

unborn holly
#

anyways

#

nerf golf and especially that regera

pulsar trellis
#

Guys, can you introduce me a great car from each row. Thank you

unborn holly
#

uhh in B class i always use the honda nsx and ford raptor

#

in A class i always use the mercedes A45 and uhh that one honda i forgot the name

#

in A+ my to go to is always the M4 gts for corners and the evo x for long run races

#

in S oh man the lambo murcilago and the r35 pretty sweet cars and if you dont care use the F40

pulsar trellis
unborn holly
#

R34?

pulsar trellis
unborn holly
#

yes thats a nice car for that class

#

for S+ basically anything works if you pick hypercars

pulsar trellis
unborn holly
#

Ok

pulsar trellis
pulsar trellis
# unborn holly Ok

How long has your brother been playing nfs unbound? Like a year? I want to know how much experience you have.

unborn holly
dusky wyvern
#

You can beat Regera drivers with a Polestar lol

unborn holly
#

i mean true

#

you can fairly beat those regeras anyway

#

but mostly its idiots that cant drive a meta car properly LOL

pulsar trellis
unborn holly
#

koenigsegg regera a car that has no transmission(1 gear) its a fast hypercar a cool one in real life too

unborn holly
#

hell yes

pulsar trellis
#

Are these two cars?

unborn holly
#

yep

pulsar trellis
pulsar trellis
unborn holly
#

in S Class the lamborghini murcielago and the nissan GTR R35 on that specific class which are the 2 cars i always used are indeed pretty great to have for that class, if you got the right tune ofcourse

#

not gonna say it again..

dusky wyvern
#

R35 Nismo is deserving of the Godzilla name in S tier

unborn holly
#

i feel like the nismo is useless

#

but is a nice car

dusky wyvern
#

compared to the normal R35

#

The Nismo hauls ass

#

shit top speed but the acceleration and some good driving is plenty enough to make up for it

unborn holly
#

fair

shut the fuck up group b RS6

also this goes hard as fuck

Ain't no way they are selling asap Rocky's 190e

#

As dlc

dusky wyvern
#

fuck no

unborn holly
#

They dont

dusky wyvern
#

this is just a picture to showcase the dedicated pvp mode

#

Swag Packs and Volume Packs aren't comint back though, they've been replaced by premium speed pass

unborn holly
#

Damn

dusky wyvern
#

Rivals and Rydell being playable characters is crazy

unborn holly
#

They are playable???

#

Insane

rocky briar
dusky wyvern
#

Rydell is a premium reward

#

The RS6 is the premium car

#

S5 and R8 are free

rocky briar
#

Hmmmm

dusky wyvern
#

All the LC Audis are premium as well

#

I wonder if they'll add in older characters into Unbound in Volumes 7 and 8

#

Rachel, Eddie, Clarence, Darius etc.

#

I believe the Group B RS6 is the Legendary Custom version but I could be wrong (partially hoping I am)

rocky briar
#

I'm happy they added @sullen depot's logo

#

Unless it was added some time ago 💀

Guys, is there anyone here who can guide me and has a lot of experience in the game?

knotty spindle
#

Sooo I played NFS payback today since I don't know the full story I got surprised by something

#

HOW THE HELL DID TYLER SURVIVE A FUCKING EXPLOSION?!

blissful cedar
#

He's the GOAT

vale nacelle
#

because hell yeah

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

It's Need for Speed

#

A guy was crushed under the weight of an SUV and a guy was crushed under literal steel pipes

#

and both survived

maiden marsh
#

the steel pipes is kinda reasonable, roll cage after all

dusky wyvern
#

actually

#

that's a good point

maiden marsh
#

you'll find I'm full of those lol

dusky wyvern
#

You're funny

frail axle
#

heh

dusky wyvern
#

Welp

#

People are calling the R8 a Regera killer now

frail axle
#

Wait really?

#

The R8?

#

has it got the top speed to even compete?

dusky wyvern
#

It tops out at like 235 in S+

#

But it's acceleration is insane

frail axle
#

huh, even more than the Huracan?

#

Weird for the R8 to be outdoing the Huracan

dusky wyvern
#

That's because the Audi's have the experimental handling model

#

The Huracan is still a great car though, I have one in S tier

maiden marsh
#

Feels weird that Audi wasn't there at launch but now that they are back they all have a different handling model lol

dusky wyvern
#

It's the F132 all over again

frail axle
#

Yeah maybe the Audis' handlings are a test bed for the futture title

#

perhaps the next NFS, or the next racing title in the works

dusky wyvern
#

I doubt it's anything but NFS

#

I just hope these changes are applied to all cars eventually

#

because that's a yikes if not

frail axle
#

I hope we see it as well

#

Would be a waste if they don't do it

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

Underground 2, yeah

knotty spindle
#

The skyline probably had a roll cage too ngl
But a Explosion to the face is something else 💀

dusky wyvern
#

Nah

#

It woulda been there in the cutscenes, considering they drew everything

#

Those very cutscenes are why it's known Rachel was meant to have an RX-8

#

Rachel went through three cars

pulsar trellis
#

Guys, what are these and what do they do?

lament yarrow
#

They're literally horns

#

💀

pulsar trellis
lament yarrow
#

Airhorn.

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

hardly

knotty spindle
#

Still better than facing an explosion head on

#

Can I get the Audi R8 in story mode?
I don't have ps plus so can't play online

dusky wyvern
#

Good news: You can progress through it in single player now

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

yes

#

races, pursuits, deliveries, etc.

knotty spindle
#

Any idea how much time it will take in order to get to tier 25?

#

I got to tier 2 in 2 sessions

pulsar trellis
#

Guys which one of these is ELITE SINGLE?

dusky wyvern
knotty spindle
#

Does Underground style drifting mean you lose all your points when you hit a wall or is it track drifting?
Volume 7 is going to be good ngl

dusky wyvern
#

That's already the case

#

Hitting a wall hard enough or missing a checkpoint will absolutely fuck you

#

I think it may potentially be more handling updates and maybe track drifting?

#

I wouldn't know tbh

frail axle
dusky wyvern
#

A scrape won't do anything, a light-med hit will knock the score but leave the multiplier

#

a heavy hit, crash cam, or missing the checkpoint will take away your points AND the multiplier

frail axle
#

That's impressive, the game can actually recognize the intensity of the hit
In Heat, Payback or 2015 it didn't make a difference how you crashed, the effects would be the same

knotty spindle
#

It'll be fun if it keeps the lose all points element from underground

unborn holly
#

But kids will complain that its "annoying" "too hard"

#

So thats a big issue

#

Actually fuck them plz i hope they wont listen to those idiots let alone they better need to learn math instead😬

knotty spindle
unborn holly
#

Good then

dusky wyvern
#

it does have lose all points

clear star
#

Being able to change the color of the projection would be nice

unborn holly
#

let us have custom speedo meter

clear star
#

Just Like in Underground

unborn holly
#

YES

#

it would fit the next volume so much

wild summit
clear star
#

Tbh out of all the speedo meters since 2015 I find payback to be the most generic one

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

or if you hit a wall hard enough

#

or a parked car

knotty spindle
#

Yes how about just by scraping the car you lose the multiplier
No nitrous and No checkpoint combo just pure drifting

dusky wyvern
#

I'd be on board

#

if the multiplier didn't take forever

knotty spindle
#

The multiplier should be based on how much you score on one drift just like underground

dusky wyvern
#

eh

#

too much

knotty spindle
#

If that's the case let's just keep the regular multiplier from the game

#

And make it fill up faster but you can't nitrous chain it this time

#

One thing I hated about the regular drift races was that they were kinda similar to the takeover event especially with the nitrous multiplier trick and the checkpoint combo

frail axle
dusky wyvern
#

I mean they have Lancia (no cars but the licensing is there) and Alfa Romeo so it ain't impossible

frail axle
#

Is it another credit screen only thing?

frail axle
dusky wyvern
frail axle
#

Weird then

#

I mean the whole Stellantis licensing issue didn't affect NFS
Like it did The Crew and Forza

#

Guess they got the license right on time

clear star
#

When the quickplay playlists are all races instead just the 3 other ones that are available

clear star
#

Adding crews again would be nice
And having some kind of crew war
(Like clan wars from clash of clans)

clear star
#

What would you think if they added electric motor swaps?

lament yarrow
#

Yeah

#

No thanks

frail axle
#

Sounds about as exciting as the wjnd

knotty spindle
#

How about adding Big rigs to the game?
Ik it sounds stupid

unborn holly
#

No

#

What would be much cooler is adding more station wagons fr tho

#

Also i want more opel in the game

smoky mantle
#

Fiat Punto and Renault Clio

vale nacelle
knotty spindle
#

Big rig races with big rigs
Just like Underground 2 SUV races but with big rigs

#

As a bonus you can buy the Mac attack as a dlc

#

Also the Mac attack 2 Mac strikes back

pulsar trellis
#

Guys, can you explain the drift entry part to me. Thank you

knotty spindle
pulsar trellis
dusky wyvern

It means if you tap the brake or tap the gas and turn your car will initiate a drift

Unbound chapter 2 when

obtuse cypress
#

Unbound 2 nouww

#

Day 69 of praying they fix the rsr's wing

dusky wyvern
#

is there something wrong with the wing?

#

or do you mean that they fused the trunk lids and wings together

obtuse cypress
#

Yup, and also how the double and crown (rwb) wings are uncolored in some places

dusky wyvern
#

the side blades are probably just carbon

#

tbh I think it looks cooler like that

maiden marsh
#

should have the option

unborn holly
#

Oh its carbon now?

#

Damn

maiden marsh
#

I think on brightly coloured cars the painted wing will look better

dusky wyvern
#

I dunno, I do think the contrast makes the color pop out a bit better

maiden marsh
#

lose the depth and the visual height

dusky wyvern
#

if everything is painted it just looks tackier

frail axle
#

Would be nice to have the option

dusky wyvern
#

like a mobile game to lazy to properly map out what gets painted and what doesn't

maiden marsh
#

eh, as said it should be a choice

#

I think it looks good though

#

tbf probably helps that the paint has more depth in Heat

frail axle
#

It does?

#

I thought they were the same

dusky wyvern
#

they are the same

#

if anything Unbound has a little bit more

#

but only a little bit

obtuse cypress
dusky wyvern
#

a new material, more fonts

obtuse cypress
#

And when i looked closer.. i think its just metal

dusky wyvern
#

check it outside

#

the virtual space is too dark for carbon fiber to shine

#

so it's harder to tell

obtuse cypress
#

But i mean ive used the rsr alot

#

And ive like started to not get bothered by that anymore

frail axle
dusky wyvern
#

There are like

#

8 fonts now I think?

frail axle
#

8? That;s very good

dusky wyvern
#

One is similar to the GTA font which I find kinda funny

frail axle
#

More than enough to get what one needs to get done with certain decals

dusky wyvern
#

indeed

obtuse cypress
#

I still dont know if i will like the new handling on rwd cars

#

Because its gonna be more grippy soo you wont really be able to micro that much.

dusky wyvern
knotty spindle
#

Hey looks my forum is alive again thanks @obtuse cypress

dusky wyvern
#

I don't like microdrifting anyways so if that gets weeded out them I'm happy

frail axle
dusky wyvern
#

Yeah me, Nima and Connor totally had nothing to do with it

obtuse cypress
#

The nerd is back todo things

frail axle
#

I'll be saying this

#

What NFS needs above all however

dusky wyvern
#

more wrap slots

frail axle
#

Is a livery import system like gran turismo

#

You can create decals in Forza and The crew and gran turismo

obtuse cypress
#

Fr

frail axle
#

But you can't

knotty spindle
obtuse cypress
#

I want to slap boykisser stickers on my car

#

Like a i did with a drag lancia delta

dusky wyvern
frail axle
#

Exactly

#

it's a feature every modern day racing game needs

obtuse cypress
#

I agree

maiden marsh
#

removing brake to drift is probably top for me, would make the driving and car types way more interesting

dusky wyvern
#

I'm fine with b2d

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

I don't use it for racing anyways

frail axle
obtuse cypress
#

And idk who was it who told me to get a g29 once

#

But now uhh..

dusky wyvern
obtuse cypress
#

Yea..

maiden marsh
#

b2d is why cars understeer then snap, would rather they brought back car classes from Payback and had better driving

frail axle
#

Fludity and flow is what I want

frail axle
obtuse cypress
#

Honestly i dont mind the old handling.

maiden marsh
frail axle
obtuse cypress
#

It doesnt need to be glued to the floor for me

dusky wyvern
#

and they're gonna be updating the physics for Volume 7 it seems, and not just for drag and drift but also for grip now since people like the Audi handling

maiden marsh
#

you still have that demonic pull in drifts that just yanks you in a direction and its so annoying when that happens and you're driving in a straight line XD

frail axle
#

I hated that particular in Heat

#

Certain corners just won't work whether you drift or grip

maiden marsh
#

it's in every B2D game

I won't say much but I want single player updates which would probably never happen 😞

dusky wyvern
#

crabwalking

#

I don't mind crabwalking either tbh

frail axle
dusky wyvern
#

It only happens in the Frostbite 3 b2d games

#

Not the chameleon ones

obtuse cypress
#

Tho heat had some good drift handling in my opinion, i think they tried to make it harder in unbound and instead made the drifting handling worse..

frail axle
maiden marsh
#

the chameleon b2d had it's own issues though

dusky wyvern
#

Heat's handling was comparable to 2015 imo

#

though instead of unfinished as in buggy, it was just unfinished as in not figured out entirely

obtuse cypress
dusky wyvern
#

Even Unbound's handling isn't perfect, but those Audis are definitely a step in the right direction

maiden marsh
#

the whole drift mode is clearly an afterthought

frail axle
obtuse cypress
maiden marsh
#

and yknow

#

literally being on rails

frail axle
frail axle
#

The handling is simplu designed around such driving

dusky wyvern
#

at launch yes

#

the original drift events (besides like 2) are garbage

#

and the handling was pretty much the same as Heat

#

but then Volume 3 improved it and added proper tracks to LSO

maiden marsh
dusky wyvern
#

I think it was

#

Bad and only certain cars actually drifted properly

maiden marsh
#

I get where you're coming from but it's because they're both B2D games

dusky wyvern
#

nono

frail axle
#

Also connor, say what you must and complain what you will about HP2010
Hp2010 had Zonda and none of the Ghost/Frostbite 3 games did, that alone is an automatic win

dusky wyvern
#

In both cars just did not like to drift if you had a full build

obtuse cypress
#

They havent done much to the rally playlist.

dusky wyvern
#

Unless it was specific ones like the 350Z or WRX

maiden marsh
#

only game where cars drifted "properly" is Payback

knotty spindle
#

Are there any off-road races in the game?

obtuse cypress
#

I mean like i know its nfs but like.. it was fun to say the least

dusky wyvern
#

Rumble in Unbound

obtuse cypress
#

Yea rumble

dusky wyvern
#

Otherwise they pretty much stopped doing off-road

frail axle
obtuse cypress
#

The rumble playlist

dusky wyvern
#

good riddance

maiden marsh
#

which ones rumble? lol

dusky wyvern
#

They're basically modern Street-X in the sense that they're Takeover tracks but races instead of Speedcross

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

Rumble is the race version of takeovers

#

in LSO

maiden marsh
#

oh that thing I played once during like, update 2 was it

knotty spindle
#

Well I never played LSO cuz I don't have ps plus

maiden marsh
#

yeah those were shit

dusky wyvern
#

rip

obtuse cypress
dusky wyvern
#

They're fun

#

I like the takeover tracks so making them race courses was a nice move

maiden marsh
#

They're not interesting enough imo

#

but that's an Unbound map issue tbf

knotty spindle
#

Any chances of map expansion?

dusky wyvern
#

Unbound's map is good though

dusky wyvern
knotty spindle
obtuse cypress
#

Ive always thought it would be really cool and funny if they just entirely pulled off a cod move and just slap an old nfs island next to lakeshore

maiden marsh
#

There's not much to it and what there is isn't utilised

obtuse cypress
dusky wyvern
dusky wyvern
obtuse cypress
#

Or like just expand the map with a new original area.

dusky wyvern
#

and yes, they do utilize a good deal of it

#

unlike Heat

maiden marsh
#

cities boring, biomes are plain, whole thing feels repetitive and like stuff I've seen in other recent games

#

Paybacks was better

#

I'll die on that hill

maiden marsh
#

and I famously hate Paybacks map

dusky wyvern
#

Payback's map is as it should be

#

Heat's map is as it should be

#

Unbound's map is how it should be

#

A desert

#

Florida

#

mid-west fields and Chicago

maiden marsh
#

Payback is a desert
Unbound is deserted

dusky wyvern
#

yeah no

maiden marsh
#

it's like a one armed man using an etch a sketch man

knotty spindle
maiden marsh
#

yeah it's too bland

dusky wyvern
#

It really isn't

maiden marsh
#

the road layout isn't interesting or thought out

knotty spindle
#

It's the most basic map you can expect

dusky wyvern
#

The mountains coulda been bigger but other than that Unbound's map was fine

maiden marsh
#

it's lacking elevation apart from the ski slope area which is generic and laid out poorly

dusky wyvern
#

It wasn't going for anything super crazy to begin with

maiden marsh
#

to be fair I blame a lot of this on the "true open world" which lets you autograss

dusky wyvern
#

even though you're on the road most of the time

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

I mean I don't like true open world either but shit

maiden marsh
#

what elevates heats map is that it's more varied and a number of the roads are smaller

#

but Unbound is way wider

obtuse cypress
#

True tho, fits the handling well because its understeery sometimes..

maiden marsh
#

yeah that's fair

obtuse cypress
#

And i mean the old handlin

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

yeah that's true

obtuse cypress
#

I feel like inbound all v8s are just busted to a another level

maiden marsh
#

is this where I try and convert you all to the 200mph top speed gang?

dusky wyvern
#

I'm already a part of it, I mainly race S tier

maiden marsh
obtuse cypress
#

LOL

dusky wyvern
maiden marsh
dusky wyvern
#

Especially Carbon and Undercover

maiden marsh
#

all of the NFS maps are compromised because they cater to 250~mph

#

it's why they're straight and boring

dusky wyvern
#

I do agree though, it's called Need for Speed but the cars should be made a bit slower

maiden marsh
#

and wide

dusky wyvern
#

That would make for opportunities like canyon roads and whatnot

maiden marsh
#

if they upped the traffic and actually had a sense of speed you could get away with 150

dusky wyvern
#

That's why I don't think Unbound should add canyon races, the game is too fast for those types of maps

#

Unbound does though

#

I have cars topping out at 130 and I feel fast as fuck

obtuse cypress
#

Im actually happy they nerfed afk grinding

#

Because now i cant bully them :]

knotty spindle
maiden marsh
#

I always feel super slow in Unbound idk

obtuse cypress
#

Funny these people will now do burnouts and shit and even try to stop the leader

dusky wyvern
#

I mean sure, Unbound isn't as fast as say Undercover or

#

ProStreet actually

maiden marsh
#

prostreet in one event type*

dusky wyvern
#

but it definitely beats out 2015 and Heat and Payback in terms of lower end sense of speed

obtuse cypress
#

High acceleration = more sense of speed

maiden marsh
#

flatter line of the graph

dusky wyvern
#

Eh I dunno about that either

knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

the traffic on the highways could be more dense but even then it is pretty scary

#

especially going into tunnels

maiden marsh
#

the tunnels are scary because of Frostbite

obtuse cypress
maiden marsh
#

the highways are like me commuting to work but if I left the house at 11AM XD

#

there's fucking nobody

knotty spindle
obtuse cypress
#

Oh

#

To me the tracks are like really fun

knotty spindle
#

But I didn't total on any other track

obtuse cypress
#

Well.

#

Oh yes now i remember

#

Like just play it realistic

#

People like divebombing alot

#

So take the inside

#

Always

knotty spindle
#

It's the bumps that gets me

obtuse cypress
#

Wait no i thought you were talking about the "shitting me" race

knotty spindle
obtuse cypress
#

Its the new s+ race

#

That is just the traintracks

knotty spindle
#

I was talking about pro street

obtuse cypress
#

Nvm

dusky wyvern
#

Wait they made a race on train tracks?

obtuse cypress
#

On unbound

#

Theres a race on the traintracks called "shittin' me"

dusky wyvern
#

I haven't really raced S+ much but that sounds like fun

obtuse cypress
#

Its an actual nightmare lol

#

People are just trying to cheese it soo hard

dusky wyvern
#

Everyone wants to be a "pRo GaMeR" nowadays

#

so it's just sweatlords on sweatlords on sweatlords

unborn holly
#

And rammers

#

Dont forget about those fuckers

dusky wyvern
#

well rammers are just children but that too

unborn holly
#

Fair

obtuse cypress
#

Im a respectable sweatlord

#

I will not let anyone be hurt.

unborn holly
#

Idc honestly if they ram me ill make sure they will lose harder

maiden marsh
#

can't get a clean race in Unbound online idk about you folk

#

if it's not ramming it's pushing too

dusky wyvern
#

I'm in a server for good races

#

Though I get good rng when it comes to races in free roam

#

Unfortunately I can't get that good rng in life

maiden marsh
#

I don't expect anything crazy, I mean it's only children playing it but like

unborn holly
maiden marsh
#

when it's every race every class I just can't

dusky wyvern
#

PVP was a blessing

#

it weeds out the "pros"

#

the fuckin no life cucks who try way too hard to win a video game

#

that will ram you after a race because you were better

obtuse cypress
#

Fr

#

Thones kinds of mfs

#

Just because im better

#

Doesnt mean you need to equip your military grade regera and audi r8

dusky wyvern
#

They don't care about cars

#

Their garage consists of only five cars

unborn holly
#

And their custom cars look always so shit

dusky wyvern
#

Golf GTI, Regera, Testarossa, R8

#

four*

unborn holly
#

R8? Thats new to hear for the sweats

obtuse cypress
#

Yea and i still kick their asses

dusky wyvern
#

I'm not making that shit up either

#

I was doing an S+ race last year and bro drove the Regera

#

won

#

We did a B tier race and he joined

#

mf had to drive a rental

unborn holly
obtuse cypress
#

Like i totally agree they just use everything in the meta rotation

#

And like they cant fucking drive too

#

I just smoke them with the m1

knotty spindle
obtuse cypress
#

Like i hated it soo much

#

I was an rsr simp 💀

unborn holly
#

Same

#

Rsr became kinda useless and just been there in the garage for ages

obtuse cypress
#

I use it in a+

dusky wyvern
#

The RSR is pretty fucked in B tier

unborn holly
obtuse cypress
#

Idk why but lower tiers feel better with less grip

#

Like s & s+ are good with a 100%

#

A & A+ with 80% grip

unborn holly
#

Depends i didnt had that issue much honestly

obtuse cypress
#

And B should be like 80% & below too

unborn holly
#

Fwd cars got really decent grip

obtuse cypress
#

Yea they defenetly need 100%

unborn holly
#

Yes

knotty spindle
# obtuse cypress Idk why but lower tiers feel better with less grip

The reason slower tier cars feel better with less grip is because it depends on how fast you take a corner with a grip car
For example with S+ car grip is good cuz it can take a corner much quicker and because of that the Burst NOS fills up more
But with a B or a A car you can't take corners that much quickly so your burst NOS doesn't fill up as much
And also with the slower tier cars you are extremely restricted cuz you can't use better tires, suspensions, differential etc because if you do use them the car will change classes

#

Drifting is much more effective in lower tier cars since they can't fill up burst NOS more with grip

obtuse cypress
#

I just slap on elite everything for suspension and tires..

#

On like everything

#

Even b class cars

dusky wyvern
#

Exactly lmo

#

There is no reason not to max out handling no matter the tier

unborn holly
#

Yep correct

#

Almost all my low tier cars got elite susp and tires

dusky wyvern
#

Every single car I drive does

#

Like real life, tires and suspension should be your very first modifications

obtuse cypress
#

Facts.

obtuse cypress
#

I now actually enjoy playing freeroam, because it works how it has to, and i really can say that theyre taking a great step with the game.

timing is just about right tho

they keep pushing it back lmao

I mean it's fine if they delay

#

I don't really care

frail axle

You wouldn't be the only one who's stopped caring

dusky wyvern
#

Nima

#

The difference is

#

I'm seeing it as polish

#

as tweaking

#

It's not like indie games where they keep pushing back years and asking for a fuckton of cash

#

No

I don't care if it gets delayed because it's going to come regardless, actually coming.

Depending on who you ask

Welp great, finally some more time to choose if i should buy the speed pass or not.

dusky wyvern
#

I have more time to finish it

#

I'm level 70 rn

shut barn
maiden marsh
knotty spindle
dusky wyvern
#

$5 for the car

frail axle
#

Seems too much

#

Then again the point of catch up packs is for them to be expensive

dusky wyvern
#

I mean

#

if you only care about the car then yeah

#

if you missed out on everything for the past 4 volumes then idk

maiden marsh
#

Looks to me like you gotta you have to pay $2.99 for the non-car content on top

dusky wyvern
#

tbf

#

thats still cheaper

maiden marsh
#

It is, it's also still not cheap enough to be good value

dusky wyvern
#

depends on who you ask tbf

#

$15 for a bodykit or $5 for a new car with bodykits plural

#

imo, it's good enough, about the price of a bag of chips nowadays

maiden marsh
#

So it's better than the old bad thing?

dusky wyvern
#

In my honest opinion I do think mainline NFS should stick to singleplayer, to make money they should just make another MMO and not charge people up the ass for prices up to $100 like they did with World

#

keep the multiplayer and single player seperate, and I mean multiplayer in the main NFS is fine but just make it like a basic quick race thing

#

I doubt they'll do it but that would be better off imo

maiden marsh
#

I don't think they'd sell well doing that

#

then again they aren't selling rn anyway

#

It's weird people celebrating this but then you have older NFS games which gave you more car/kit for the money and no forced grind was a bad thing

dusky wyvern
#

Black Box locked cars behind collectors edition numerous times, Heat made you grind for the "special" bodykits, and Payback

#

well Payback was fine tbh

maiden marsh
#

Payback in the end was £8 for all the cars

#

and they had more than 2 bodykits

#

Heat was more progression focussed and was like 15 minutes to complete

#

and going past that wasn't really commenting but yeah, locked behind collectors editions was kinda shitty if common for the time period

dusky wyvern
#

I don't think Unbound's monetization is great, mainly bc of the speedpass, it should have stayed fully free at best but

maiden marsh
#

I get they need to make money

#

ir

#

well try to lmao

#

but this isn't how it should be done

#

But I called it when they did the free speedpass

dusky wyvern
#

No, it isn't

maiden marsh
#

£10 for two bodykits, they didn't even bring ABT on board of anything

#

and the fomo

#

I just can't be dealing with it while they're also making the game look cheaper with f2p style cosmetics, I paid £65 for this shite yknow

dusky wyvern
#

FOMO is a disease, though they do at least bring it back around every update with the paid stuff, $3 for everything if you missed it is kinda smart

#

even if it's still really shitty

maiden marsh
#

Yeah I acknowledge it's smart, and tbh it is better than usual.
It just makes me want to play even less

dusky wyvern
#

Yeah that's completely fair

#

I got burnt out of it, though that might change with the drag racing and cops vs racers stuff coming up

#

I'm glad they're trying to add actual content besides cars and cosmetics, especially since it's free

maiden marsh
#

idk I'm firmly in the belief that this content should have been there from the start

#

as it's been what, 1.5 years and the games still content starved

#

with no unique draws

dusky wyvern
#

it is what it is

#

EA and all

#

I've given up trying to complain about that ages ago, especially seeing that they could have been as bad as Ubisoft

maiden marsh
#

nah this feels like a Criterion, they did the exact same thing with HP10, MW12 and rivals

#

content impoverished but admittedly well running (apart from Unbound which is the worst NFS port) which is why they got booted to begin with

dusky wyvern
#

I dunno about that

maiden marsh
#

They had a massive budget and the same amount of time as Ghost and gave us less than even 2015

dusky wyvern
#

tbf Heat and Payback also had less than 2015

maiden marsh
#

Payback had more

dusky wyvern
#

It's just been a downwards slope, and now Unbound is trying to slowly roll back up

#

Payback moreso traded some for others

#

We had less race types in exchange for off-road and speedcross

#

Had they worked on those race types to make them better they woulda been, well better obv

maiden marsh
#

Heat had more than 2015 but less than Payback, the more I think about it

dusky wyvern
#

Heat absolutely didn't

maiden marsh
#

race variation, customisation and map size,

dusky wyvern
#

There was little race variation

#

Customization and map size were gonna be a given since it's a newer game

#

It'd be even worse for Heat if it didn't have those

maiden marsh
#

I'd say event types too because I count having actual cops and the gameplay loop as content

#

where 2015 had race, drift and drag

#

tho the drag was just straight line race

dusky wyvern
#

2015 had sprint/circuit, drag which sucked, time attack, time trial, multiple variants of drift, and then prestige to top it off

#

Heat has race, drift, and off-road

#

and like two takedown missions that you can't replay

maiden marsh
#

if we're seperating sprint and circuit then I think you still lose

dusky wyvern
#

No drag, no speedcross, nothing for the crew system

#

they advertised off-road night events which also don't appear

#

multiplayer drifting also doesn't appear

#

no speedlists either

#

Both have pursuits, it's just that 2015s is dogshit because the cops are so insanely slow

maiden marsh
#

Circuit Sprint (plus off road variant) time trial then the story only content (only fair to include because you're separating it) then the drift plus the entire cop loop and then to be extra petty (again, soon as we're seperating circuit and sprint etc) you have the collectable events

dusky wyvern
#

I didn't separate circuit and sprint lol

#

also 2015 has collectibles as well, though they're photoshoots instead of touching flamingos

maiden marsh
dusky wyvern
#

I'm saying that because Heat only has two variants, on road and off road

maiden marsh
dusky wyvern
#

same for the races

#

on road and off road

#

otherwise they're the same thing and don't have any unique aspects other than terrain

#

not to mention I coulda sworn nobody wanted off-road anyways

maiden marsh
#

it's natural for newer games to have "more" content so again why does Unbound fail at that to bring us back to the point

maiden marsh
#

I mean Unbound kinda still has it, they just don't separate it

dusky wyvern
#

Yeah, Unbound merely pushed it to the side

maiden marsh
#

apart from in the drifting where it's the entire first half of the game

maiden marsh
#

They're AAA, reselling and rereleasing

dusky wyvern
#

I still think it's better off than Heat though

#

even at launch

#

As long as it's a step up it's something

#

instead of the step down

maiden marsh
#

I mean by my definition and the player count it's a step down

dusky wyvern
#

the player count is a joke

maiden marsh
#

I agree

dusky wyvern
#

I mean the comparison guy

maiden marsh
#

probably not in the way you mean it though

dusky wyvern
#

God you really are putting it onto me as usual

maiden marsh
#

don't take it personally, I'm talking about the game

dusky wyvern
#

Oh I know

maiden marsh
#

I was gonna day

dusky wyvern
#

though you did admit to being petty about it

maiden marsh
#

yeah, when you got petty about it XD

dusky wyvern
#

I didn't though

maiden marsh
#

I was gonna say I didn't take you for the type to take it personally anyway

dusky wyvern
#

You say I was separating things but that wasn't my intention

#

The point is one game had variety in the different variations while the other didn't, I'm sorry if I came off as petty for that

maiden marsh
#

it's np

#

I knew what you were getting at, the small touches add polish and finish

#

and I want more

#

but I don't treat it as a separate thing, I can tell what it is

dusky wyvern
#

But wouldn't that apply to the other games too?

#

I mean it's a racing game at the end of the day, there's only so much you can do being stuck in a car

#

especially when you're a specific genre, like street racing

#

y'know?

#

Can't really go all-out trackmaina on it, I say while the chinese game kinda does

maiden marsh
#

I agree to a point

#

it's what you do with the racing that counts

#

does your handling model suit it

#

have you got a varied terrain

#

are the roads and biomes interesting

dusky wyvern
#

That's where Payback+ does well compared to 2015, that is true

maiden marsh
#

are the AI like, worth a damn

#

I think that's why I dislike 2015 so much despite, yes, going back to it

#

the handling mod and an FWD car does feel good, torque steer isn't something you get in games normally

#

combined with it being the only game with a closed open world, (well, apart from Payback, kinda)

#

it does feel nice

#

hence I only drive my civic and just pootle about XD
