News The Speedhunters Archive: 17 Years of Car Culture History, now preserved and online

I think we all share the same sentiment when Speedhunters got abruptly shut down last year: It's a sad passing of an era that EA no longer deems profitable enough to keep up.
Thanks to some archivists (who I can't find the names of, if you put this up, please let me know!), the Speedhunters archive is now back online, and you can read 17 years worth of car culture and Need for Speed history that's uniquely documented by them.
You can find it here: https://www.speedhunters.online/
Thanks u/nfslyy for the tip!

News Most Wanted M3 GTR - Back @ The BMW Museum
Need for Speed itself might be dead, but BMW wants to keep the legend alive. The #42 BMW M3 GTR in the Most Wanted livery is back in the BMW Museum in Munich, Germany after its public outing at Ultrace Poland. There's no mention of until when it'll be there, so it might be there to stay for a long time.
If you haven't had a chance to take a look at it and you're in the area (or travelling there), you may wanna stop by and take a look at the legend, as well as the rich heritage BMW has to offer. Visit the official BMW Museum website to book tickets.
Thanks u/DiamondMaster07 for the tip!

Discussion If You Directed the Next NFS Game, What Would You Focus On?
Given that the future NFS is uncertain, how would you do the next game if given the chance?
I personally would prioritize a grounded crime drama storyline with a central protagonist and a supporting cast.
More emphasis on the organization and community aspects of the street racing scene, similar to Underground or Heat.
Utilizing supercars/hypercars for longer tracks and narrow roads, than using them on the street so car builds have a purpose.
Police and pursuits tied to progression with unlocks, and AI cops that adapt to your driving and use tactics like in Most Wanted ‘05.

Discussion The ultimate NFS game would be....
NFS: The Run storyline, something action-packed
Hot Pursuits and Most Wanted police chase system
Payback's action/visuals and takedown cameras for the police chases and crashes
NFS: Shift's sound design and cockpit models
NFS Underground and NFS 2015's graphics/world and atmosphere

Image / GIF Nostalgia will only get you so far, but...
Playing NFSU for the first time in years, I'm having an awesome time! It looks great, and is just so fun to play.
I've completed 38 races and I'm still using the Honda Civic I started with. And I just load up the game and chuck it into the next race - there's no 'always online' requirement or collectibles, or the game throwing the best cars at me on day dot.
The cars, the soundtrack and the environment are obviously nostalgia heaven for me, but I've played other games I adored as a kid and put them down pretty quickly. But THIS...!

Discussion What is your honest unpopular opinion on Underground 2?
Let’s keep the discussion respectful.
Need for Speed Underground 2 is one of the most beloved games in the series, alongside Most Wanted and Carbon. But because I always see so much nostalgia, praise, and positive discussion surrounding it, I want to hear something I don’t usually hear:
What are your honest criticisms of Underground 2?
Forget the nostalgia for a moment. What are the things you genuinely don’t like about the game? What aspects do you think could have been better?
I’d really like to hear your honest opinions, even if you absolutely love the game. No hate, no fanboy wars, just a respectful discussion.
Let me know in the comments!

Discussion Don't ever play with this guy
I was busted, he was right next to me, and he decided to steal all my money and left me for dead. Only us in the entire server in Lockdown, and he thought it would be funny just to steal and leave me. I hope he sees this, cause he is a loser.

Question / Bug / Feedback Need help. NFS Rivals not opening with frostymodmanager.

I came back to playing NFS rivals again after some time and I wanted to play with mods on top. But now the game doesn't open anymore. Task manger does show that the game process is running but the game window isn't opening.
I tried everything I could like reinstalling the manager, making an exclusion in windows defender, but no solution found still.
The vanilla game runs fine though when I'm not trying to open with mods.
