>>736340808Heat and unbound are so fucking close to what NFS fans want but they still miss the damn mark in different ways. Now that series is dead except for that 10 year old mobile game and a chick NFS heat based game.
HEAT FROM THE COPSHEAT FROM THE COPSYOU GET REP YOU GET HEATHEAT FROM THE COPS
>>736340894>Heat and unboundthose two were targeting niggers so much youd think they were minnesota cops
>>736341274I mean in terms of gameplay, should've added that. Of course the music in both games is a trashfire, the car selection is a mixed bag, the characters are one note and annoying, and the devs fail to go all in on either of their respective games asthetic choices.
>>736341407fair enough. personally the gameplay was the least of my issue with the games, as its just fairly standard race modes with a decent enough arcade handling model in both. its the presentation and writing where it falls apart for me. tho i vaguely remember the structure of the story mode not being that great either but i cant recall specifics.
>>736340808Unbound was 10x worse in this aspect.
>>736340808Heat ost is one of the worst soundtracks i've ever heard, sincerely. It's terrible even if you like the genres
>>736341274kek
>>736342010This.NFS Heat is mostly fine aside from the technical issues (game is badly optimized and the PC version runs like ass on machines that far exceed the recommended specs, with lots of stuttering), and the awful soundtrack which is just as terrible as in Unbound. But other than that, NFS Heat is the closest thing we ever got to a NFS Underground 3.NFS Unbound however is a complete trashfire, with its only saving grace being that the game is technically a lot more stable and optimized than Heat (graphics have been heavily downgraded though, just take a stroll in downtown in both games, Unbound has buildings that wouldn't look out of place in Garry's Mod or Roblox)They tripled down in trying to appeal to zoomers and mystery meat audience. Actually worse, they tripled down on what an out-of-touch boomer pencil pusher thinks these audiences want.Gameplay, mechanics, handling and driving physics are awful and 10x worse than in NFS Heat. It's the first racing game I've ever played where you can understeer and oversteer at the same time.NFS Unbound is probably the worst NFS game ever made. It makes Rivals and Payback look good.
