Need for Speed {DT} - General Discussion Thread

Probably right, could be just plain ingame CGI also.

[Eudemon]

Like was said previously, the real visuals are shown when it says 'actual gameplay'. The game will be at E3 though so we don't have too long to wait to see it in motion. As long as it is fun to play that's all that matters to most people anyway, great visuals can only take a game so far before people stop gawking and start getting bored.

Nice graphics are nice :umm: but they are just a bonus to me. Some of my favourite games are donkeys years old and the sometimes horrendous graphics don't bother me at all as the gameplay is so good.

 

I've even been playing Underground 2 for the past week and we can all remember what that looks like graphics wise. :lol: It's just nice to be 12 again and feel what I felt the first time I played the game. :leaves:

[Eudemon]

Still up there with the engine sounds or is that just rose-tinted umm headphones I'm wearing?

[Camel]

The sounds still beat some modern games tbh. Even though I'm only in a Pug 106 at the moment.

 

I'll stream it tomorrow for a bit if I'm in so you can hear it.

[Eudemon]

That would be sweet, thanks man. Don't forget to watch your rev level on those drag strip events to snag that boost!

[Camel]

I can't do drag races at the moment because my car blows up in top gear. A 106 is never gonna come out on top against a Skyline or Evo. :eek:

[Ryzza5]

12 wasn't that great - NFS Porsche 2000 had some bloody hard missions in it.

 

Shall we investigate if it's still possible to play that one over a fake Hamachi LAN (if you have it on PC)?

[Camel]

Sure, if you can really be bothered setting it all up. :p

10/10 would watch. Possible to play on PC with a 360 controller you think? I'd love another go, don't think I ever got that far, I just loved cruising.

Xbox.com kindly leaked a few more details of NFS 2015 on their website. The game launches on November 3rd and as you can see below, EA have gone in a revolutionary new direction as the game will have a size of 0. I for one am really looking forward to seeing how they can pull this one off!

 

EA's upcoming Need for Speed reboot will launch on November 3, according to a prematurely-revealed product page.

 

The since-removed page popped up on Microsoft's Xbox site, and was swiftly screen-capped and posted on Reddit.

 

 

The accompanying blurb also reveals several new features we haven't previously heard about. Apparently there'll be five "ways to play" called Speed, Style, Build, Crew and Outlaw.

 

There'll also be "multiple overlapping stories" enabling you to "carve your own unique path". Meanwhile, the West Coast Urban setting will be a nocturnal open world you're tasked with exploring and dominating.

 

The reboot itself was only recently revealed, and we don’t know a great deal about the new Need for Speed for now, but we do know this “full reboot” is being built by Ghost Games – the series’ new home in Gothenburg, Sweden – which also developed 2013’s Need for Speed: Rivals.

0 is right, until MS has something to upload and burn to disc.

[Eudemon]

So wait, it wasn't very clear but does it say there will be "five ways" to play this new NFS?

 

And Microsoft must be running this game fully from the cloud. :p

[Camel]

Five ways as in different paths you can take to reach the end game I guess. :shrug: Which sounds good as it should add some re-playability to the game.

[Eudemon]

Yeah but there's "5 unique ways", then "five ways" and then just to be sure there's another mention of "5 unique ways".

[Andreas¹]

Not sure if the 5 ways to play are connected to the storyline. I'm thinking maybe it's similar to the factions in The Crew with different rewards and thingys.

[Camel]

Stickers confirmed!

[Eudemon]

Wait is it stickers or stickers! ?

[Camel]

Crap, you're right. I've let you down but worst of all I've let myself down. :(

[Ryzza5]

I thought it was STICKERS!

 

The question I have about 5 ways is if you chop and change between as them all as you play (like cop v racer in NFS HP 2010), or if it's more like the old Tony Hawks 3 game where you completed one pay-through, then started another and you'd get some different challenges.

[Eudemon]

Guess we'll find that out at E3 as the game is meant to be playable there.

[Ryzza5]

The only other funny thing is hearing everyone screaming UG3, but so far I think it's more similar to Carbon (minus the Canyons)

[Eudemon]

I'm thinking more like OG Most Wanted tbh which would make me quite happy.

[TIMELESS]

Sounds like the 5 ways to play thing means the best of both worlds. Outlaw = MW, style = UG, speed = Pro Street etc.

 

We're looking at you Sweden. Don't screw up. :evil:
