I'm not seeing any threads about the new NFS game.
Should be released today for PC, is it worth the buy?
Of course not
If the free Need for Speed they shit out on me is any indication.
No.
>>331094175
Ignore all the anime weebos on here that shit on a game for not having an Oscar nomination worthy story.
Things you need to accept to enjoy the game:
>handling and realism
This isn't an ultra real Sim. Police act like potatoes, some cars have too many gears, the handling isn't perfect but you can pick it up.
That being said if you want a realistic cop game or arcadey racing game this isn't for you either.
>cut scenes
Death by cutscenes, but if you can have fun with it then it's not a problem. If not throw on some music or a podcast as you don't really need them.
>tuning
This is where the game is pretty legit. Sure people will shit on it for no bbs wheels or whatever, but there's a ton of tuning options. Go wild tuning cars.
>how I'm approaching it
I played all the old nfs games but I'm now a pc mustard. I know the handling is jank compared to Iracing but this is about the tuning. I'm just grinding out money, which is easy to come by as the economy isn't fucked like gta. When I have enough I tune a car I'd love to tune irl.
So yeah fuckbois here will shit on it for story and "ea is worse than Hitler" but it's a bunch of fun if you approach it right. If you want a realistic car game, or story don't get it.
If you're into tuning it's definitely worth buying
>>331094702
Now please tell us in actual English how it compares to NFSU/U2/MW.
>>331094702
Sounds good man, i realy enjoyed the old NFS games, but always found the lack of tuning options took the fun out.
Might just buy it later tonight
>>331094175
Iv e stop caring for nfs since most wanted i dont even want to shitpost the never ever meme
My roommate got Origin Access so I've been playing it for a while, it's alright but I'd wait for a sale.
>>331095528
You can play the game on origin access??
>>331095669
You could play for 10 hours and like a week early. Sane with PvZ GW2
>>331094175
>always online
get that shit outta here
>>331094949
There's always going to be nostalgia clouding vision comparing it to classic games but will give it a go.
>tuning
Best of series imo
>cars
Not much depth but the cars are new and ones you see irl in US/Japan/Euro to a degree. Could be more of them given the price and that it's current gen but overall pretty solid.
>handling
Akin the undergrounds drifting handling imo. Once you get used to it it's bearable
>story
Would've preferred a most wanted 2005 style story and better cops it'd be solid but this is probably the weakest area.
>graphics
Gorgeous if not on toaster but the same style as underground in terms of mostly rainy nights
If you like underground and most wanted you'll probably like this. >>331095291
>>331094175
Oh damn I didn't know it was out already, I hardly come across any promotions about the pc version. Last thing I saw was the official pc video showing 60 fps gameplay and racing wheel support.
I would try it but I'm not really invested in Origin to care. I only have it to get the free on the house games.
>>331094702
i smell a marketer
>>331097970
I smell your b/o. Go wash buddy
>>331094175
Looks shit. I'd rather replay Underground 2
>>331098503
but Underground 2 is shit too
>>331098957
Why?
>>331096928
Oh right, I even thought of playing it before that.
>>331094702
Sliders between drift and grip does not tuning make.
>>331099106
AI is awful
the tuning is garbage
thats all i remember, last time i played was in 2009
>>331094702
>not mentioning the artificial difficulty on the races
come on man, that's a big one. you can have the fastest car in the game, yet the "bosses" will always catch up on you, no matter what
>>331100107
You mean one of the best tuning systems in a NFS game?
>>331100107
>tuning is garbage
Why? It has literally a shit ton of options
>AI is awful
It's mostly fine
>>331100308
>>331100327
Carbon had a fuck ton more tunning
>>331100275
>Bitching about rubberbanding in a Need for Speed game
>>331094175
>EA
>is it worth the buy?
take a wild guess
Isn't this game night time only, lol?
JUST
>>331100383
It's also a newer game. Doesn't make the tuning in Underground 2 garbage, it's pretty decent
>>331100651
It's a hell of a lot better than the new one. It's just a fucking slider between drift and grip.
Im having fun with it, but my favorite racing game of all time is Burnout Paradise, sooo...
If you want to go stupidly fast in expensive, riced out cars, this is a good game for that.
>>331094175
i have seen a friend playing this.
Is not THE GAME , but is one of the best need for speed so far.
I was thinking they will fuck up the tunning again , but this time they did not , The game looks damn good.
Story was OK not that big or great
What i have seen , police AI sometimes are damn smart , some time are total idiots , i dont get what's wrong there
buy ? i don't think so , buy it if there is an offert , pirate it if you can.
"never buy a game from ubi or EA"
>>331100327
>mostly fine
its awful in the URL races
they take the corners on-rails and then proceed to brake on the straights
and the fucking slingshots holy shit
the tuning does have a lot of options, which all makes the car look like shit
you either race it stock or go full mexican
OMG
this game has be released on consoles 5 months ago.
Can pc be more irrelevant.
>there are people that feel they need anything more than pic related
>inb4 NFSU2 faggots
>inb4 Carbon faggots
>>331100970I like MW and NFSU2
>>331101058You can stay I guess.
>>331100970
Is there any car in this series that sounds better than the M3?
https://youtu.be/FstXpvGzxZI
>>331100970
>all these kids who don't know about Hot Pursuit and Porsche games
>>331096708
That's actually a decent deal.
>>331102338
We've gone to the point where people can have legitimate nostalgia over street ricing games, Grandpa.
>>331102408
>tfw you will never speed down your city streets at 120mph in a fully customized Supra
>>331103292
>120mph
try 190
>>331103767
>try 190
No no, that's for the 40 mile landing strips we call highways out here.
>>331094175
>Origin
I'll wait for the Codex release.
40 euromonies is a bit steep though for what it is.
And doubt there will be a crack because denuvo.
Just tell if you can disable that shitty camera sway when going into corners. I might pick it up from a key reseller.
>always online
>physics tied to the connection
No, get fucked.
>>331107436
You can turn that shit off. I'm tempted to get it from a keysite too, just looking for the best price.
