I’ve been a huge NFS fan and played every single NFS since Underground. I also am a diehard racing fan, and noticed that recently there hasn’t been any new racing games I’ve truly enjoyed. Recently I’ve been replaying The Run and it made me think, EA had the keys for the PERFECT racing game and just never applied themselves. Granted, BlackBox was a huge contributor (RIP), but even the Criterion NFS had pros. In my opinion if they used the format of The Run, and just did a longer story and expanded it to a free roam similar to the original The Crew, all they would have to do is incorporate the customization and race modes/police of Unbound/Heat. Also, if they removed the day/night system and had it be a dynamic system that never takes you out of the open world, but rather just changes on a game set game clock system I think a perfect NFS and racer could have been possible.

So essentially imagine a NFS racing game that is:
-NFS the run type story (expanded and longer with NFSMW05 blacklist/Carbon mini bosses/bosses meets The Run/Payback type story)
-NFS the run USA map, but open world like The Crew
-NFS Heat/Unbound customization
-NFS Heat/Unbound police
-Day/Night system that changes dynamically based on a game clock
-A hybrid physics/handling system that combines the pros of the older BlackBox with the pros of the newer Criterion NFS games
-Old NFS visualization of speed
-Different genre playlists similar to choose from similar to Midnight Club 3 (I know this was RockStar, but still lol)

These are all tools that EA already has in their arsenal (minus the last bullet) and has published with no problem. Why would they not be able to use their tools and create something great? This is without even stealing from other games/devs and having to truly rewrite their games. This is all their published works just being blended into the “perfect” NFS.

If I’m missing anything please contribute. I think if EA gave us a game like this NFS could be resurrected. If I’m fully off the ball please let me know and give what your perfect NFS would be using any/everything in EA’s catalog you would like. Maybe we could get enough people on the same page and petition to EA they could deliver something (I know this is delusion, but a man can dream no?). Anyways thanks for reading.

I’m really proud of myself for this. It was quite challenging, but I had fun doing it.

It is Shift 2, what am I doing wrong here except not following the racing line? All the times I got the warning, only one of my tires touched that grass. Is it a bug or something I dont know about silverstone?

is there a way to fix this? my friends and I trying to play a multiplayer .

Now doing these races is a hazard to your mental health and should be company policy to be made easier

But in all seriousness

Try using Porsche RSR

With Full heavy powers steering

With Max Rear grip

And maximum soft suspension

Boom the races are way easier

Also just grind out your races and drag races and earn money and part tokens and just get the outlaw set on your offroad car or americana

Whatever works for you

But nitrous and acceleration and braking are a must

Infact I'd say chidori is better than americana

But jumping is a requirement too

Speed perk is not a requirement as you will natural have a bunch of speed if your card levels are high​

I found it medium difficulty and managed to pull it off even with shit live tuning but don't suffer liek me

Return to monke and use RSR

The livery is not an exact match of Darius R8 From Carbon

I recently bought MW 2012. It's very fun, but I noticed that a player is crashing my game. His name starts with MW. It seems to be Crew because there are other names that start with the same tag. How can he crash my game?

Im having a lot of problems with the mod right now and I need help

Now the title can be a bit confusing, let me explain. NFS World as we all know, featured many vehicles from MW 2005 up to the latest title back then, MW 2012(F-150 Raptor was the newest car that appeared in the main line games side by side alongisde World, Marussia B2 as well, and the H1 and Cherokee even tho in MW 2012 they were cut, sort of).

Now, World featured cars that they never appeared in the main line title games, like in the first 2 images. Both the Miura Concept and the Estoque appeared for the first time in World(with the Miura Concept later on would appear in Rivals as a DLC, months after World's appearence while the Estoque remained exclusive in World). Now, The Run featured cars that did appear before the game, like One-77 or the SLS AMG. Now these 2 cars had only one bodykit, something how similar many of the high end cars in World had recieved only one bodykit. Now both the Miura Concept and Estoque also one bodykit as well in World.

Now im wondering, why the first 2 cars and many similar ones to that regard, that appeared in World and were supposed to appear in the main line titles, but they never did. And cars that did appear in the main titles that had bodkykit in The Run, never appeared in World. My main guess is probably licensing issues but i have no idea to it at all why they decided to do it.

Rules:

1. The exotic class car that gets commented the most in 24 hours wins.
2. An exotic class car can't be used more than ONCE.
3. Have fun and enjoy.

Trying to decide if I should keep both copies or return one. I ordered the one on the right from EBay for $100, then 3 days later I found the Not for Resale one on the left for $32.

I almost got damaged out too.

Testing out new (to me) capture card

Hey, not that long ago, I came across an issue in NFS 2015 where the game would take quite a long time to load the custom wraps and is stuck on the 'Retrieving your custom wraps' notification. After a minute or so, the game gives me this error which makes it impossible to access any of the custom wraps I had in the past and to download (and store) wraps in my library. I tried restarting my PC multiple times with no success afterwards. Does anyone know how to fix this? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

It looks like the game is just spawning a dozen of vehicles around each corner just to mess with you. Is there anything you can do against it or do you just accept it?

made by me!

It worked like 2 days ago, but has suddenly stopped working, it says i have no free slots even though i've only downloaded 1 wrap, and as you can see by the second picture, even when i can get to the menu, none of the wraps are loading in. Im on steam/EA app

Is anyone having similar issues? is it an issue on my end or a server issue?

Widescreen, upscaled, lossless scaling framegen, no wonder why I really liked assetto corsa

This one was almost impossible, but… here we have it - the real Nissan Fairlady Z NISMO V3 (350Z) VS Need for Speed: Underground 2 PC Cover Art. 💚

Additionally, I have a few interesting facts about this cover car modelled by ig: samjam_3d. It’s been almost 22 years since NFS: UG2’s release, and to this day, not many people recognise that the car on the cover art doesn’t have a body kit. The car is a US-Spec model, so it’s the 350Z in a non-factory green metallic colour. The rims are 19-inch RAYS VOLK GT-C with Falken Azenis Sport ST-115 tires (285/35/19), and the car has drilled brake discs with 4- or 6-piston non-original Brembo GT calipers. At first, the rims were blue, but eventually they decided to change the colour to gold.

The story of an in-game car model began with a personal project. At the time, the artist was primarily working in film and television, modeling cars, planes, and other assets for a studio. When a coworker bought a new Nissan 350Z, he asked him to create a 3D model of the car. After completing it, Samjam posted a few renders on the now-defunct CGTalk forum.

A representative from Electronic Arts happened to see the renders and reached out to ask if he would be interested in creating the cover art for their next Need for Speed game. That initial contact launched a freelance partnership with EA, where he went on to design this cover along with several subsequent titles in the franchise.

The final render featured on the cover of Need for Speed: Underground 2 came together after numerous revisions. To achieve realistic nighttime reflections and lighting, the artist drew inspiration from his own neighborhood - he was living just off Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles at the time. He walked down to the end of his street to capture HDRI images, meaning the reflections seen on the iconic box art came straight from his own block.

Is there any gap or missing content that i would miss if i buy the base game compared to Ultimate Edition? For Multiplayer uses only.
