What was the last good NFS game?
Underground 2. Adding the police shit made it gay lame and tedious.
>>750892738most wanted 2012 was good but I think the last great one was probably pro street
>>750892819>most wantedagreed>2012AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>750892812>gay lame and tediousAs opposed to U2's horrible pacing issues and, g-d forgive me, URLs?
>>750892738the one where you used cards to upgrade your carspure design genius
>>750892738carbon and anyone saying otherwise is delusionalcarbon was already a step down from most wanted
Shift 2
>>750892738World, combines both MW and Carbon, there is still a cracked version working called SoapBox Race World
>>750892812>forced tuningjust for that U2 is shit
Heat was not bad, but also not good.Couldn't play unbound for too long, the characters are fucking cringe and constantly yapping
Need for Speed: Cabron this is a joke, pls laugh
The Run was pretty good, i enjoy it.HP2010 is good too, has that classic nfs feel where its just open road and exotic stylish luxury cars.Rivals is suprisingly pretty great and i think it looks amazing.But most wanted 2005 might just be my favorite racing game of all time, i do yearly playthroughs of it and I always enjoy it.
>>750894126I chuckled
I really do need to play prostreet finally, that game seems like the true last hurrah of that era of black box.
>>750893156Sadly this is the case.
>>750892738Hot Pursuit 2
>>750893093Ive got a friend that swears by underground 2 but i question when was the last time hes actually played it, hes not really a gamer these days and spends more time doomscrolling reels and youtube shorts than anything else.It truly does have awful pacing and feels so boring and dull, underground 1 was legitimately better.
>>750892738The one I played as a kid
>>750892812ProStreet, but Shift was an interesting experiment, however both of these games suffered because of the peak>Underground 3 NOW!
>>750892738prostreet, only issue the game was buggy out the asshot pursuit 2010 was also pretty fun>>750893156carbon is better than the overrated snooze fest that is most wanted, without mods the cops are ridicously easy and repetitive
>>750892812>addingbrown children genuinely never grow up huh
Underground 1 was pretty lame. Way too long and repetitive. Gonna try 2 soon, but I'm not expecting much of an improvement.
>>750893093Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only person who liked URLs
>>750895326>brown children genuinely never grow up huhretarded and wrong, stop projecting you worthless faggot
most wanted (2005)
>>7508976942 is even longer.
HP2010 and before that it was prostreet.>but what about he-no, you can gtfo
Hot Pursuit (2010), if we don't count the 2020 remaster. My brother and I loved NFS3 as kids. It unironically inspired him to become a cop.It was fun playing NFS 2010 together, the same year he officially became a cop. We were both unstoppable in the interceptor (1v1, racer vs cop) game mode. Literally the only person I ever lost to was him. Weirdly enough he was just as good at escaping as the racer as he was chasing as the cop. Pic related was his preferred choice when playing in sports-tier, of course.
>>750892738Hot Pursuit 2010No wonder it got a remaster
>>750894915I doubt that even half of the ug2 nigs have finished the game.
I heard Heat was good but I haven't played it yet
Fuck you I liked it
>>750900419The best nu-NFS for sure. Not that the bar is very high though.
>>750900552
>>750900402It is obvious those that praise it as the best in the series never have. It is good for sure but not as good as underground 1.
>>750900619>QTEs>in your racing game

>>750892738pro street was the last good one. deeply flawed and extremely easy but it had that "sovl". you can a argue that hot pursuit and rivals were also good but they had zero car customization which makes them meh to me. they were decent games thougheverbeit. hot pursuit's sound effects were s tier. the woman shilling the cars and the engine sound being louder than everything else was an s tier design choice.also as much hate as nfs 2015 gets, its prestige events were some of the hardest nfs events I've ever done. >>750892819the only good thing about most wanted 2012 was the online multiplayer. everything other than that was complete dogshit.
>>750892738The most recent one I've played was NFS 2015, and I quit after 20 minutes because I hated every single person in the starting cutscenes and I couldn't skip them, game was meh. Heard that NFS Heat was alright but I can't be assed to try, so I'll say NFS The Run>>750894126Good one anon
>>750894126
>>750894126>mfw
>>750892738>What was the last good NFS game?Project Nortubel
>>750898519Never understood why people hate them, only thing I truly hate is having to rice up your car to progress, and even then I buy something like an Escalade just for that (and for the SUV only races)
I tell 'em everywhere anywhere is murder
>>750895110>Underground 3 NOW!The monkey paw hears and obeys.
>>750900709I never saw anyone who prefers Midnight Club 3 to NFSU2 that wasn't black
>>750900402I finished it once when it came out. I have to admit though having 6000 other players driving the streets has stopped it from getting boring so far
>>750901391I guess im black then. Midnight club 3 is way better than those nfs games
>>750901584nigger
Only correct answer.
>>750901201I guess nobody bought an underground game to race on closed tracks. They do flow quite well though, in fact they're better than a lot of the street tracks
>>750892812the police was there from day 1 you faggot
>>750901391Midnight Club 3 has THREE cities, four in Remix, and has the Rockstar/Midtown Madness quality of city design that's crafted to be more like a driving playground. That alone destroys UG2's sole gimmick already. Midnight Club's faster sense of speed is a cherry on top. Compare their highway traffic density to Underground 2's highways that only have like 1 or 2 traffic cars visible at any point. UG2 basically has no reason to exist, might as well have no NFS game that year and it Most Wanted cook for an extra year.
>>750901882Yeah but midnight club is retardedly hard and grippy
>>750901882Midnight Club 3's cities sucks, the cars drive like shit, the car modifications are somehow ricier than Underground 2, and it's the niggerest game to ever nig around, even more than GTA San Andreas
>>750902075>types this while listening to riders on the stormlmao
Some dude made a thrash driver for NFS4 that uses vulkan, has an unlocked framerate and widescreen.>https://www.nfsaddons.com/downloads/nfshs/tools/11454/vulkan-thrash-driver-uncapped-fps-widescreen-patches-all-in-one.html
>>750894840This is the correct answer.
>>750892738Most Wanted for general gameplay for me. The Run was a fun campaign. Most Wanted was the kind I could just do infinite car chases forever. I was obsess with it. Growing up I played HP2 and U1 on my GameCube. I have my save file backed up too. I used to use “LINK” for my save files back then lol. Loved Zelda.
>>750901882Midnight Club 3 is fun as hell but the cities are worse than the ones in 2, even Tokyo was downgraded. UG2's reason to exist is cars that actually feel like cars, more variety in race types and a far better visual style
>>750892738Driveclub.
Is there any way to make the audi tt look good? cause nothing i do makes it look actually good.
>>750902650Make it matte black with a smol spoiler so it is a street submarine.
>>750902650Keep it stock, at best add some BBS wheels
>>750892738Burnout 3 Takedown

>>750902757>>750902780kudos to you 2, always hated how the audi tt looked but i wanted try making one look good anyways
>>750902650Drop it in a car crusher
>>750892738Shift maybe
Here is a legitimate question. How come the jobbers that make need for speed never went for a full sandbox style gta game where you arent just locked to the car. I have wondered this for ages because they already have better car physics than every gta game prior to maybe 5. I dont see why they wouldnt be able to btfo them
>>750903857because need for speed has a long and painful history of devs eating shit and dying due to making a game every year
>>750902020>MC3>grippyu ucking what
>>750903857nfs world lmao
What's the last NFS without brake-to-drift bullshit? I tried playing Heat once but I simply do not get on with the shitty modern steering system.
need for speed shift 1 and 2 are great and i have no idea why people don't like them more
>>750894840This. The niggerification of the series started with Underground and the annoying story segments as if a racing game needed fucking cutscenes to tell a story.
>>750892738Either Hot Pursuit 2010 or Rivals. MW2012 wasn't good btw. It could've clearly been good but it's like they decided to make it bad and as far away from a Most Wanted game as possible on purpose, for some strange reason.I still wonder how good Carbon could've been if they gave black box more time
>>750905010Whoops, I meant to say The Run or Rivals. I haven't played these in a while, sorry.
>>750904830then hot pursuit 2010 was also good no? it was just a better version of hot pursuit 2. zero story all gameplay.>>750905010raycevick did a whole video on carbon and he extensively talked about the original plans for carbon. but i hate youtubers so i don't recommend watching it.
>>750904585Shift 2 probably.
>>750905010>MW2012 wasn't good btw. It could've clearly been good but it's like they decided to make it bad and as far away from a Most Wanted game as possible on purpose, for some strange reason.from what i understand, it was actually meant to be a proper sequel to MW2005 but they had to can it and the MW2012 that we got was rushed out at lightspeed so they could release it on time
>>750904634Shift just does not fit in what people wanted from need for speed, be it the OG crowd or the fast and furious larpers.
old but gold
>>750905114>raycevickHe made me download the Battle Royale mod, have you checked out that one? It's actually challenging unlike the main game
>>750902650I loved the TT around this time when I was a kid, but this car sucks balls in this game
>>750905347but it's not just NFS fans who ignore, it's basically ALL racing game fans
>>750892812fpbp.
>>750904634because they genuinely drive awful that fans had to do a physics overhaul mod for anyone to truly give a fuck about it. maybe you weren't here around for launch, but the physics were so fucked in vanilla cars would bounce and get air time from just driving straight
>>750893402heat is just... too urban for me.constant, unending naggerbabble music, exactly one white char to use. pass.
The NFS franchise was always intriguing for me. One thing that I haven't really seen be done the way it was in MW05 and Carbon is the blacklist/boss car liveries. It almost feel like taking masterful, unique character design and then slapping that same doctrine onto car liveries to make them unique and memorable, sometimes even giving them a certain 'vibe' or 'personality'.The franchise as a whole was always refreshing because they were always trying to do something different with each game.>>750898519URLs won. I actually think the city wasn't that interesting to drive in. UG1 tracks were better. It makes sense, it was their first open world map after all.>>750905114I know plenty, it's really odd how much of a rabbit hole that game is when it comes to what was originally planned. I don't think any other NFS game is quite like that as far as I know. Besides maybe MW2012, but that one is just downright insulting.
>>750905620>because they genuinely drive awfuli know that in shift 1 the oscillations get crazy when you drive over multiple bumps in a row and after a few seconds the front suspension feels like it's being jacked up by hydraulics like a pimp my ride scene or something but it doesn't happen too often, i think it only happens on certain bumpy tracks or when you take sharp curbs too aggressivelyshift 2 doesn't seem to have that problem, at least not to the same extent that i've encounteredother than that, the driving model feels fine but i haven't gotten to the GT1/GT3 in shift 2 just yet
>>750905495yeah its the only way I play carbon now.
>>750897694>>750900094UG2 feels like like a mod.It lacks structure that UG1 and MW had.I understand why people have it as their favorite, but as many have said in the thread, on replay it really feels like a slog.Worst of all, and this is something that could actually be fixed by all these recomps (but probably won't) is the car list was very lackluster in UG2, but it also goes for most NFS games.It would be nice to get UG1, UG2 and MW with fully fleshed out carlists that are fully functional, also used by the NPCs and aren't weird work arounds that have to replace existing cars.In this same vein, I would love a High Stakes decomp that removes the 50 car limit, fixes crashing because of too many high poly cars and also fixes the track list so that new tracks can be added without having to replace old ones.This is the shit that decomps promise but I feel no one will pick up and do actual game changing stuff like this.
>>750905720>I know plenty, it's really odd how much of a rabbit hole that game is when it comes to what was originally planned. I don't think any other NFS game is quite like that as far as I know. Besides maybe MW2012, but that one is just downright insulting.what was carbon supposed to be like originally?
NFS got a lot of handheld games during its peak period, Carbon Own the City is the most interesting one because it had a completely different story with quite a big twist and reused the map from Most Wanted.Underground Rivals was also kinda fun although repetitive but the other PSP games were quite boring, especially Most Wanted 510 which was notoriously rushed and not fun to play at all with repetitive tracks, insane rubber banding and annoying cops.The DS and GBA games are kinda cool if you are interested in seeing demakes of console games, but most other people won't find much enjoyment in them, just avoid the awful DS version of Most Wanted.There was also the weird 3DS version of The Run with a different story that got ported to the Wii and I think the Vita version of Most Wanted 2012 is almost the same as on consoles.
>>750905575If you want to be a closed circuit racist there are better options. Shift 1 & 2 are just games made for a market that was segmenting heavily at the time and did not stand out enough for either side to care about.
>>750904634>>750905575Because there is no reason to play these games over Project Cars, TOCA or Grid
So the franchise is basically dead now?Is there a current developer who could make a good NFS game?
>Need for speed 3 hot pursuit>Its sequel, need for speed hot pursuit 2>And its sequel, need for speed hot pursuitMAKE IT MAKE SENSE
>>750905929>what was carbon supposed to be like originally?Who knows, but they were definitely going for a RETURN TO FORM from Underground(s).It's still one of my least favorite NFS games.
>>750906153It was one of the first NFS games I played after II and Hot Pursuit 2 so I have a lot of nostalgia for it
>>750905720>The franchise as a whole was always refreshing because they were always trying to do something different with each gameGlad to see someone else recognize it. Sad that it could only be appreciated in hindsight.They came in pairs, sort of.>NFS I and II>Hot Pursuit, High Stakes.>Porsche Unleashed, Motorcity Online>Hot Pursuit 2>Underground 1 and 2>Most Wanted and Carbon>ProStreet>Shift>>750901324I think that was attempted with Undercover, I think that Undercover was their first real major fumble and the one fumble the franchise never recovered.I am not happy with the Burnout and NFS merged that happened, but it seems that because of this experimental nature NFS had, it never developed as strong of an iconic gamefeel as Burnout did.
>>750892738Most Wanted on PS2 cause womens fashion peaked in the early 2000s
NFS3 is the peak of the genre and I will not be accepting different opinions at this time.
>>750906002TOCA and grid are great but you can't customize your cars in any of those gamesyou can in shift AND it's got one of the neatest customization features ever: stripping out your interior and making it more suitable for racingyou start off with simple stuff like replacing the door panels, etc. with carbon versions, replacing the wheel with a racing wheel, until it gets more serious like adding switch panels, data loggers, a roll cage, etc. and all of this is in addition to all the visual and performance customizationit often times has that track day feel that people praise prostreet for
>>750906117The NFS3:HP and NFSHP2 shit confused me as a child, I thought my then friend had a newer version of HP than me even though it looked more dated.
>>750892738The last good game ever made.
>>750906357>porsche unleashedDid they ever revisit the posh european flair after that game? Feels like past Underground NFS alternated between grungy tuner stuff ala Most Wanted or these weird story driven games. Would have liked less of that and more driving a Ferrari or Porsche through Tuscan or French villages
>>750906552High stakes is just 3 but better
>>750906153i've seen a few of those videos where they talk about the development of the NFS games and there's just so much stuff that went to waste, like cut content. i have no idea why they didn't try to lean their production process somehow so that they wouldn't create as much unused content so that they could save time and resources. maybe they just didn't know how or didn't want to? it's a headscratcher
>>750897694I like UG1 but mostly because I actually lowk like how the rubberbanding makes the game feel like a car combat game where you constantly have to block your opponents from getting the lead. I mean the moment they get the lead it's real hard to get past them because it's almost like they have invisible speed boost lines that you do not have. It made the game feel more active in my opinion. I also like how you can just trade in any car you want so you can just play with a different car each race to make it more interesting.>>750905929I made it sound more complicated than it really is, it's actually pretty simple. They were simply more ambitious. The city was supposed to look quite different. More crews that were cut, LeSamurai being the most notorious one, Some stuff they clearly built up to like the Yellow Lambo, Red Evo and the Challenger that seemed to be important yet don't really appear anywhere in the actual game. Promotional material shows a cut canyon that you could actually play on Flashpoint right now if you look for it. It shows a very different skyline of what is supposed to be Palmont. The canyons were supposed to be connected to the city as well I think but I'm not quite sure on that one. I'm also willing to bet they might have had more planned for police pursuits because they play absolutely no role in the career mode, yet they do in the challenge series.The rabbit hole part for me is how much stuff is left in the games, promotional material, and the betas for people to be able to piece this together. Stuff like San Juan, or the city skyline in Lookout Point for example. Otherwise it's pretty simple, they were either just more ambitious or locked in on concepts far too long in development that they eventually dropped, causing them to rush a few things.
>>750906732It's even more confusing because Hot Pursuit 2 had a different version on PS2 from other consoles and PC
>>750906862Thry were forced to make a new game every year from 2003 to 2008
you can explore MW's map in your browser btw https://noclip.website/#nfsmw/rockport
>>750905510this but the eclipse/3000gt they're heavy turds but i like them very much
>>750906832Not on either platform is that true.
>>750907016i know; i'm saying that since they were making games annually, it would have been prudent to create a more efficient production pipeline so that they could make the games smoothly and punctually instead of what they actually did, which was to crunch most of the time
>>750906915I forgot to mention, that image is an example of promotional material that points towards dropped concepts in the development of the game.>>750906357It's so sad that Undercover was so bad that the PS2/Wii version that reuses assets is somehow the better version.I still wonder what the fuck they were thinking with that game. I don't know if there's any videos that explain it.
>>750906785Porsche with some high res skyboxes looks amazing.
>>750905942I always found that era of games fascinating seeing how different games got ported with completely different game mechanics and stories. I think NFS Own the city had a crazy ass story?
>>750905720>Besides maybe MW2012, but that one is just downright insulting.Still, would you guys believe me if I told you that there's an even *worse* case of wasted potential in the racing game genre...?https://youtu.be/9oXT-H6ueLg
>>750903857Because they had to keep churning yearly Need for Speed releases
>>750907291>3 cars wide lanes
>>750907827Forza Horizon players would love Porsche Unleashed
>>750907827you're gonna wish the lanes are fucking 10 cars wide if you play it on keyboard
>>750907827It is about the cruise, not the race.
>>750903857there's a multi theft auto server called NFS:SAthough you can't get out of the car which sucks
>>750908308>SAi'm guessing that stands for south america
>>750907612Burnout and Midnight Club got the best racing games on the PSP by farBurnout Legends containd tracks and cars from first 3 games with the mechanics of 3 while Dominator had boost chaining from 2Midnght Club 3 was a pretty faithful pot of the PS2 game while LA Remix reused the LA ad Tokyo map from 3, despite lot of reused assets it was still a very enjoyable experience.
>>750908082Why yes, rear engined cars with a chassis from the 60's ARE best controlled on a keyboard.
>>750908858Porsche engines are mid
It was good and I'm tired of pretending its not>but its burnoutOk? Burnout is fucking based
>>750909759Most people ITT said it's the last great game
>>750909880I remember /v/ hated it when it came out.
Imagine being the kid who only played the shitty Wii version of Hot Pursuithttps://youtu.be/rnnbWizoeJA?is=pQJyOmUgUHGO66TZ
>>750909950>shitty Wii versionWhy did you type shitty twice?
>>750909759the cops vs racer races is one of the greatest racing modes in general
>>750909950It was flatout a worse version of need for speed nitro.
>>750907827it's not just the lane width, the entire game world is scaled up compared to the size of your car
>>750894126haha
>>750909931i thought it was undercover?
>>750913114>flatoutThat reminds me that there was an awful Flatout game on the Wii by the same people who made 3https://youtu.be/zYvUUM5YgX4?is=E4zMnxYlPbWOPlmH
>>750909332911s are most definitely not mid engined.
>>750913563yeah that guardrail is fucking hugei never got why they did that, sure it makes tall things look taller but why not just model them taller to start with
>>750908665>Midnght Club 3 was a pretty faithful pot of the PS2 gameit's really, really close to 1:1. IIRC the only things cut are the texture quality and draw distance (obviously), and the unique splash screens for the tournaments/rival races. everything else is there AND if you overclock the PSP slightly it'll even do 60FPS and feel just as good
>>750915612I heard it had long loading times
>>750902650looks cool to me
>>750915834the individual loading times ain't that bad, there are just a LOT of themthe PS2 original is the same way
>>750908665No love for TDU?
>>750915289Flatout 3 is proof god hates us all.
>>750892812Your post is so confusing. There's 6 games before Underground 2 that have police
>>750915997TDU's driving is kinda ass. It's only appeal is being proto Forza Horizon
>>750916223I like the PSP handling more than the PS2 and way more than the next gen versions, actually. It's a little clunky sure but with TCS off it surprised me just how different the cars feel, especially based on weight and engine location. The Elise is a goddamn squirrelly little bastard.
>Most Wanted sold 18m copies worldwide >RE4 did 15m damn was this series huge
>>750916223>It's only appeal is being proto Forza Horizonif you enjoy smuggler's run 2, or specifically the 'vibes' and trance soundtrack, try PSP TDUit sounds like i'm on crack and i'm not (other substances may be involved) but trust me bro
Has the Shift games been delisted? I can't find them anywhere.
>>750892738Wario's Woods I guess? It's the final released game on the system and it's good.
>>750916645
>>7509161936 games?TNFSNFS3NFS4HP2II has no police and iirc porsche only has 2 police vehicles as addons in the pc version rather than any sort of police pursuit like the titles above.
>>750916576>if you enjoy smuggler's run 2nta but yes and you have piqued my interest as I would've assumed the psp version was the worst version of the game.
>>750916848so TDU has 3 versions, the PC/xbox version, PS2 and PSPthe PS2 version was developed by a separate company and strips back the graphical aspects a lot, but actually has more races and tournaments because it adds 'clubs' of 1v1 races and limited car type (coupes only, imports only, one-make clubs, cars with stripes, vintage race cars, etc) which in the 'proper' version of TDU are player-driven, online-only features and thus completely missing if you try to play now. it's missing some of the custom stuff and the cool dealer-car-buying experience but adds its own new soundtrack alongside the existing stuff and it's ALL awesome nfs3/SR2 style trance and house, shit's bitchinthe PSP version is just the PS2 version with lower draw distance, no driver avatar and no interior cam. framerate is iffy but 60fps MOSTLY works with a patch. both the PS versions still include the entire oahu island, they didn't cut any roads or reduce the scale, which alone makes it pretty noteworthy in my book
>>750917165So surely the ps2 version would be the one to play over the psp version under the assumption of emulation?
>>750917273yeah probably, it has some better graphical effects built in and probably runs better, i just picked the PSP version because i'm playing MCLA Remix at the same time
>>750916774Sorry. It was 5 games before Underground 2 with police, and you missed High Stakes. Also, >>750892812 said police, not police chases.
>>750917504NFS4 is High Stakes for burgers, Road Challenge for folks across the pond.
>>750917504> and you missed High StakesPray tell what number game in the series is high stakes, also >>750917597 and it had other names as well, so calling it 4 covers every version of it.
>>750917662High Stakes is the 4th in the series: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Need_for_Speed_video_games#Primary_installments
awesome game
>>750892812fuck the police!
>>750917597Road challenge feels much more in line with what classic NFS was about (the french name is pretty cool too) than high stakes.
>you'd be happy like a faggot in jail>sex sells so fuck you allHow did this get into a game rated for kids?
i dig Heat. the criticisms ITT are valid ("modern" feel to the driving that is sort of a bastard mix of arcade and sim that doesnt feel as good as older games, lots of YO WADDAP PLAYA brownoid shit, retarded driver models and useless driver customization options like hats and shoes) but it has a nice mix of ricers and luxury/super cars and decent customization. i mostly like the gameplay loop though, doing sanctioned races during the day to earn money, then illegal street races at night to outrun the cops and earn reputation was a nice choice. also, the logo is awesome and i like the tropical neon motif

>>750894754It's absolutely great, but get a modpack, vanilla has some weird delay on the steering and a few other minor bugs.
>>750918619I got heat for free and I only played for 23 minutes, maybe I'll reinstall
>>750905942I remember the PS2 version of NFS Undercover being different from the Xbox 360/PS3/PC version
>>750892738>What was the last good NFS game?Pro Street.
>>750918350High Stakes makes more sense since betting your car against your opponent was the big gimmick of the game.I also don't understand why they never did this anymore, it makes even more sense to bet cars in the underground series since that happened a lot on the F&F movies.
>>750920675>High Stakes makes more sense since betting your car against your opponent was the big gimmick of the game.It barely features in the game at all. The majority of the game is traditional tournament races and special cups.
>>750920504I see you are a man of refined taste.
>>750918690>>750919017i put about 20 hours into it before i got bored. didnt beat it or anything but i was having fun gaining rep to unlock cars and parts then gaining money to purchase said unlocks. i am reinstalling right now actually, this thread has me in a racist mood
>>750918619Heat was an ok game just to enjoy all the cars. It's a shame they lost the Toyota license after 2015. Unbound somehow felt like a downgrade, and facing the same handful of racers every race got repetitive.
>>750918619>retarded driver models and useless driver customization options like hats and shoeswhat is your problem with hats and shoes
>>750921087women don't need them and men shouldn't wear them
>>750921130you mean women don't need shoes, so we can see feet
>>750899171I finished this last month and jesus fuck it was a fucking drag. The NPC catch-up logic is so incredibly shitty and annoying.
>>750894126nice lol
Unbound unironically has a fuckton of good ideas that could move the genre aheadShame about the you knowDriving in a driving gameAnd the generic nog VA's with the shitty story but that's secondary
>>750923023There is an upcoming game called clutch that was making all the right noises riiiiiiiiiiight until it revealed it has a story that looks just like the sort of shit heat or unbond would have and my day was ruined.
>>750923023>>750923138>We are LE VICTIMS and the police are corrupt>Also we do property damage, break speed laws and do ilegal racingIt says a lot people says most wanted story is the best one for racing games on the fact it never bothers with this kind of shit and makes it you are a criminal fucking other criminals
>>750923398> most wanted story is the best one for racing games No it is the best story in the need for speed franchise. The best racing game story is in split/second.
>>750923398The radio in unbound was fucking stupid about that but it turns out it was just the host's mommy issues. Heat went all in on cops bad but to be fair the antagonists were literally corrupt cops
>>750908858>picoh no, poor thing
>>750892738I enjoyed Heat but i was playing with a friend, often drunk, which helps with many games. This was my ride of choice.
>>750923810The nevada speed challenges in prostreet while drunk are some hair raising shit.
>>750923138Clutch had made it pretty clear it was going to be hollywood-esque so basically nu NFS
>>750906785>Would have liked less of that and more driving a Ferrari or Porsche through Tuscan or French villagesI agree. It's sad, a huge a waste, and also a head-scratcher, that after Porsche Unleashed the NFS franchise never again attempted to revisit the theme of racing super sportscars and hypercars through scenic European roads. Even after generational leaps in technology and graphics fidelity.
