The Multiplayer experience is terrible. Tried to refund on PS after 2 hours, no dice, their "support" is EVEN WORSE. Bet this game will lose support just like Heat did, only thing is that Heat was actually a good game. DO NOT BUY THIS FOR MP!! My brother bought this game on steam, played for as long as I did, was able to refund right away. Fucking hell.
After years complaining abou modern NFS, this game actually made me like the series again, of course there are some issues, mainly physics related, sometimes when drifting the car just doesn't want to get straight again and starts doing some weird movement, also, lower level cars understeer so much, you need to be really slow and gentle to be able to take a corner without drifting or sliding away because your front tyres have no grip, it's a pretty weird mechanic since it's an arcade game, sometimes it makes me feel I'm playing some sort of simulator, also, something that really brakes the immersion for me, is the sound track, it feels so small and repetitive, the garage sound track is so good, but the open world and racing one don't match up, the songs are kind of out of place in my opinion, not that the song itself are bad, they just don't match the action, you are on a lvl 5 heat chase, with 2 helis, 15 cop cars, racing against the top tier cars, and it's playing "Kolo Kolo" as I said, the song is actually cool for some kind of meet or just cruising around, but not on the action, I really thought this game would have more drift phonk, since it's basically the only thing young car guys hear today, I've played the 10 hours test from EA play, and actually considered buying the game, but the price is too expensive in my country, but it's definitely in my steam wishlist for future sales
I'm commenting early so maybe I haven't seen it yet, but I really really hope we get new cars and more cars than heat was. I love NFS heat, only recently stopped playing it daily.
Overall it doesn’t seem like a bad game but I don’t think it’s worth $70 though. Only problems with the art styles for characters is that they look like they stepped out of a cartoon, which is what I think they were going for, but it’s weird seeing them right next hyper realistic cars and environments, reminds me of Who framed Roger Rabbit or Looney Tunes back in action. I can already guess that the soundtrack would suck, imo the soundtrack for nfs hasn’t been good since 2015. Will probably buy when it goes on sale though.
The effects are crap, and you know it. And I want you to know that there is one person who knows for a fact, that The Falcon takes it up his ass for these reviews… Its all about pushing sales, but in your case, pushing you stool back up inside you.
Note: Falcon said you only have 4 restarts. It is somewhat true but that entirely depends on the difficulty you choose. Normal gives 4 restarts (which Falcon chose), Easy gives
I'm surprised you didn't mention how polished the game is. It's been a LONG time since I've bought a game, especially published by EA, that has so little or no bugs. Worth the money for that alone in my opinion. The voice acting sucks, and they throw equality at you left, right and centre which can be a little jarring, but I love this game now. Coming from someone who thought they'd hate this art style.
One thing I really like about this game is that each racer has a backstory and talks to you during the race, also when you pick them up they give dialogue as well. Instead of just being computers that you beat for cash.
Thanks for the review guys, a refreshing welcome for the new changes for the game. However I'll pick it up when it's on sell.
Tbh nobody wants qnother need for speed. Why?
First thing i will do is disable the weird tik tok effects.
Game is fire and updates is gone make it that much better 🔥🔥🔥
Love that need for speed mixed themselves with hip hop/graffiti type scenes
The cartoonish characters are my only ,,problem" in rest ok game to bad I didn't wait till was cheeper but….o well

This on sale yet…
Is there a language filter where you can cut out profanity?
if they put in the burnout style of crashing and taking people out like burnout 3 or burnout paradise into this game it would be quite good fun i bet
WTF is this??? Thank God for Forza.
Seriously ? Those effects and realistic vs cartoon styles is a total deal breaker for me. Either one or the other, both combined just looks shit imo
The sense of speed looks really bad. 70mph looks like 20mph.

My opinion dosent matter but honestly.
NOT IMPRESSED Nfs heat was better. Like bro this is Into the spider verse if miles was on drugs and a racer.
To be honest – I don’t think the style is refreshing. It’s reminds me at the 4th SSX Game which was also from EA from 2005…
Maaaaaan Fuck them doodle effects
oh dear why

I see no one talking about the multiplayer, thoughts on that?
I’ll wait for a price drop. It’s too expensive

Game seems like nfs heat. Which was boring after a week.
I hate the artsy garbage

Im still waiting on need for speed heat dlc😂
Hate the style, effects and the tire smoke but whatever I might still buy it :/
Note: Falcon said you only have 4 restarts. It is somewhat true but that entirely depends on the difficulty you choose. Normal gives 4 restarts (which Falcon chose), Easy gives
This is a pass for me. I hate the driving effects and seeing the people in the same space as the cars is just, ugh…
Those effects are difinatly for kids…
anime need for speed
This shit looks stupid 😒
This… Has my attention. Might Gamefly it. I don't ever play racing games but this looks cool af
I just wanna know why they think they can charge 69.99 for a video game

Quite possibly the best NFS game to come out in ages! I hope they stick with this new identity because this shizzle rocks!
How does the game handle with a steering wheel?

For everyone this game will eventually come to Gamepass through EA play so waiting for that is a wise move.
what happened to NFS….
The takeover event isn't really new. NFS payback had pretty much an identical event.
is there a couch co op?
NFS took too long to find its identity after the second most wanted. Forza Horizon stole the show and I ain't coming back EA. Sorrrrryyyyy
The game actually worth buying cuz I can get it on the series s
