Need For Speed: Most Wanted : Official Discussion Thread

[DeviousOne]

It's not worth $60 IMO. The games is just way too short!

How about in regards to multi player is it good??

How about in regards to multi player is it good??

The only thing i don't really care about. I don't touch the Multiplayer in almost every game i buy!

[DeviousOne]

I usually have frequent company or my gf likes to play along with me multiplayer is always a concern for me lol

I don't think there is any split screen MP in this game.

Anyway, there is far too much Burnout similarities in this game. Burnout is a great game but I want this to be different.
This smashing of billboards and gates, holding R2/L2 to start a race, easydrive, takedowns/shutdowns, driving through repair stations. It feels like I'm playing Burnout again.

I also don't like how you find cars instead of buying them, and how you can't even choose the colour of the car. I don't like how I'm currently Most Wanted #9 even though I've only won 3 races (non of them being against other Most Wanted drivers). The crashing annoys me, every time I bump into a car, I have to watch a slow motion cut-scene, It's annoying as hell.

The driving is good, the graphics are very nice, but overall I am disappointed with this game. It isn't a patch on the original Most Wanted unfortunately

I'd have to agree that it's a Burnout Paradise clone. I loved Burnout Paradise and I do like this, but i feel like I've done it all before. I've played for just over 6 hours since yesterday when I got it and I already feel like trading it in. I haven't even used the online pass code either.

I'm gonna list what i like and what i don't really like about this game

Pros:
1- it looks better than burnout paradise
2- there's cop chases


Cons:

- some cars handle like shit
- More crashes than actual racing
- Very short for a racer 20 hours +/-
- Nothing to look back to after you're done with the single player
- Customization is utter shit and should not be called a worthy upgrade
- 41 cars and no way to customize any of them, only forced customization!
- billboards and gates? what is this? i can assure everyone that this is not Burnout paradise!
- cop chases are aggressive and not very fun after a couple of chases!

That's about everything i didn't like. I finished the game and i could honestly say that this is the last game i'll ever buy from EA or criterion in the next 3-4 years.

I made a review of this game. You can check it out in the PS3 Games Section.

I haven't played it much due to work etc but so far so good for me. The last NfS game i played was on my ps2 so this obviously beats those hands down.
I am concentrating on the career at the moment but if anyone want's to add me to do some races at some point or just to boost friend numbers for the autolog etc feel free, PSN : BodyCountUK

The image shows a blue Aventador, however the blue colour is not available in game. I am disappointed and request an explanation.

[Makinen]

I love this game so far. My favorite car by far is the Veyron. Love the drifting in it a lot.

Only gripe is that there is no repricution to getting caught by the police.

Hopefully the upcoming dlcs will be nice

Are you trying to platinum the game? I might try doing so.

[brebaz]

Yeah, I'm trying to do so. I'm at 82% of the trophies so far.

Unlocking 3 Pro mods in multi-Player is gonna take a long time!!

[authenticHATE]

None of my current friends are cool enough to play this game with me. Anyone looking to pad their friends list for maximum Autolog competition?


Also, this game is fantastic. Loved ever step of the Burnout series, not so much the Need For Speed series. This hybrid plays a lot like Midnight Club II which makes me nostalgiaphoric. The "customization" is disappointing, but the gameplay easily compensates. DLC ought to be interesting. I think to get the most out of the game you really need a dedicated group of friends. Seeing their billboard-sized faces sneering at you as you race through the city adds a great layer of friendly challenge.

[Cybertox]

The multiplayer aspect of the game however is awful. Very confusing and same as single player just with multiple players. Same cars and same unlocks.

Yeah, that's true. and also the Pro Mod unlocks are ridiculous!! one Pro mod unlock could take more than 4-5 hours just to unlock it!! and that if you are lucky!

I was going to aim for the platinum but that is stupid now.

[Cybertox]

Finally completed my Pagani Huayra Pro build.

Track Tires Pro
Burn Nitrous Pro
Lightweight Chassis Pro
Aero Body Pro
Long Gears Pro

some of the car challenges/races requires you to evade a crazy squadron of police cars within a time limit. I'm not able to win any of those. any hints on how to evade? I try to go in the opposite directions, head onto the highways, go through the paint shop but no matter what, cop cars spawn out of nowhere.

some of the hard challenges are impossible to win..

Police chases are easy. Sometimes its just that you have to try multiple times. If you find them impossible you are a very bad player cause those are easy snd i have done them like 30 times already.

i don't own this game. but that is pure FAIL! correct me if this image is wrong (i found on interwebs)

EA better bust out a patch for this failing in logic

Is the think that tesla roadster is an electric car and nitro cant be used on electric motors right?

[Fijiandoce]

indeed.

Nitrous Oxide is injected into the engine cylinders to allow more oxygen into the engine....Tesla requires neither

[Cybertox]

Could they have added something which could replace the nitro on the tesla? Like a power boost or something.

[Fijiandoce]

fictitiously, yes. which is why a patch should change the name to...'overcharge' or something equally ridiculous.

the tesla is like a giant circuit. whereas fuel engines have theoretical limits (this allows the use of nitrous and such) an electric piece comes with a voltage or current limit and cannot be pushed passed its limit or things start to go horribly wrong. this is why all Tesla's come with a speed cap of 100 mph or so.
