Hot Sauce 2,727 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Very excited to see whether this one is terrible or just mediocre. Exciting times for NFS fans! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Remij 4,670 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 The last great NFS game was NFS3: Hot Persuit. That game was so godly. I have no faith in this series anymore. Hope I'm wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teh_Diplomat 2,054 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) EA? Thinking on it now, I was gifted BF1, so last EA game I bought was Bad Company 2 at 75% discount some time around 2012. Since last summer, they've lost a third of their stock value.

lynux3 2,052 Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 I thought Need for Speed Rivals was alright, but the last one I truly enjoyed was probably Most Wanted and Hot Pursuit (from last gen). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,228 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I don't blame EA for not knowing what to do with the Need for Speed games. I genuinely don't know what the future is for semi-arcadey racing games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Open-area racing games aren't gauranteed to excite anybody. Especially if the open world design comes with the downside of blander-designed racing stages. Nobody likes load times, but I don't think open-world design solves this problem, either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The NFS games are already open world. I was talking more about the driving model since Horizon is so fucking fun to just drive around in, but it's basically an MMO that just throws cars at you every 30 seconds. It's fun to collect them for awhile, but at a point you realize it's not like you're ever going to drive that sweet Ferrari you unlocked so what's the point? There's no sense of accomplishment in that game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope the next Forza Horizon game has missions where there are cops which will chase you down and arrest you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
