Crews are also available to drive around the map with friends. Racing other players within each server can only be done if they first found within the server and then they accept the race. Need for Speed’s online lacks in so many ways. Allowing the player to adjust handling, drift, grip, etc., through specific areas of the car means it’s a car with each player’s specific handprint on the wheel. But there are still many cars that cannot be touched in some very basic areas."ĭriving styles in Need for Speed are also up for customization. "Customization is the key in Need for Speed. Swapping parts, paint jobs, adding wraps, and surprisingly a lot more to offer is a nice additive. Exterior car customization is a pretty cool feature. As continually putting new upgrades into that car will ultimately lead to it becoming faster than the competition and gaining wins becomes much easier. It’s likely that most players will finish the entire single player with the same car as I did. Changing the hood, rims or wheels of some vehicles is completely locked.Ĭustomization for cars has a nice depth that can be almost completely controlled. But there are still many cars that cannot be touched in some very basic areas. Customization is the key in Need for Speed. Collecting cars was not the main focus EA and Ghost Games had in mind. The garage can only hold up to five cars and the amount of cars to choose from is no where near Gran Turismo or Forza. I know it’s not fair to compare the two, but the point is that physics work incredibly well in Need for Speed. Police AI works well within Outlaw, and it felt very typical of what could possibly happen in real life rather GTA where the cops become almost unstoppable and don’t abide by in game physics. Outlaw is a great game mode that mixes up all the racer’s game types and places a cop in the race to stir things up. Driving is smooth and handles well especially with the customization options. Within the actual single player races AI characters felt under performing and don’t do much to keep the player from winning like they would in Forza titles with their Drivatars. "What entertainment can be found within the single player story is quickly swept over. Each story path will eventually lead to a real life racing icon that was actually very interesting and brought better value to what little the single player truly had. When single player begins, it runs over 79 events that can be quickly wrapped up in less than a few days of play.Ĭharacters within the story account for separate paths within the campaign. What entertainment can be found within the single player story is quickly swept over. I suppose using real actors for the scenes and plot is one way of getting out of some graphical expenses– which is fine to do if done with good acting.
Especially when playing in first person perspective, when the characters are talking right into the screen, fist bumping right through the TV, it gets even harder to ignore the irrelevance of what relevance these characters try to add to a racing game story. Over acting and pitiful dialog is only outdone with what seems like an endless fist bumping train. I must not be that “racing underground” hip to get it. Young adults over acting and saying phrases I’m not even sure what many of them mean. When diving into single player, there’s an over abundance of live action cut scenes. With an extra year of development under its hood and an anticipating crowd yearning for another lap, EA and Ghost Games’ arcade racer feels a bit incomplete.
Being an enormous fan favorite franchise, Need for Speed had a lot to live up to in 2015. However, cooking in the over an entire year still has this title a little half baked. Missing out on 2014, Need For Speed is back.
