^*phew*. And I hope it has some kickarse story. I don't want another Most Wanted (2012) or Burnout Paradise.
Unlikely as it is being developed by Ghost in association with Criterion.
And I dont seriously give a crap about having a story or no as long as the gameplay is kickass
(Just like HP,Burnout Paradise and MW'12)
anyone heard about driveclub? this is drive club for pc.
Yeah how can we forget driveclub. Its one of the most anticipated racing simulator for the beasty PS4.
But isn't NFS supposed to be an arcade racer? Is this a sim like gran turismo and the likes?
drive club is nfs with the detail of gran turismo. Offers something for everyone
Driveclub is like TDU
This is completely different to it as this has takedowns,cop chases and customizations.
Oh, i get it now. I thought drive club to be like gran turismo.
Thanks for pointing that out mate.
If those are in-game footage, then this is truly the first next gen racer for pc.
N
EDIT: Yep, they are. Thank goodness.

I hope there are bikes too. they always leave them out .
.
ANd yessss. There should be Ferraris in motogp.I hope there are bikes too. they always leave them out
Open world racing...and also for Xbox One and PS4 good
open world racing, with customization!!!
This uses frostbite 3, so expect jaw dropping visuals. Will surely surpass grid 2 imo.
Coming to current/nextgen consoles and pc, except wii-u.

I mean seriously, why don't they consider Bikes too? GTA has both bikes and cars and what not, though cheats for bikes doesn't exist in GTA:SA. Superbikes can reach 350+ km/hr so, why not include them. EA is being baised about vehicles.
G
If this has a helmet/cockpit cam, I'm in.
Nope. I don't even remember the last nfs game with cockpit.
D
man it should also have guns and pets imo.
Pets!?! BTW, Is it Peds that you were refering to?
G
NFS Shift & Shift 2 Unleashed
Ah yeah, but they're semi simulators aren't they? What about the last arcade nfs game with cockpit? is it nfs porche?
Yes its Nfs Porsche .
N
Fix'd. Sorry, I'm a big fan of that game.
Now I only wonder if there's gonna be a story...

not so strict. they can put as you can see asphalt series. "Need For Speed" title does not binds it only for cars.
Call of speed : rivals!
@thread game looks good, though i hated the new MW2012 . I'll like it if its similar to new Hot Pursuit.
Check out the preview here:

Looks fun to play.
I'm more interested in Ubisoft's The Crew and Drive Club than this game. Although expectations should be high- Criterion is the developer
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2010 V2.
You can also call it Burnout: Paradise 4
All the NFS games developed by Criterion have been an extension of Burnout Paradise IMO

True..
You guys always seem to forget that Ghost games is just not Criterion lol
It has devs from other studios also
And what if it turns out to be Burnout Paradise 3?
That means it will be a hit like BP and MW'12

But boring.
Hope they don't have any crash scene BS in the game. Its really PITA when driving crazy.
Original NFS Most Wanted 2005 had something which will take something really big to replicate. Its called "Addiction". I still can't forget how addicted I was to it.
After CS LAN play , this was the second most addicted game I played ever.

Well addiction is something that now only RPGs cn inflict upon me, long service with games have made me immune to addiction for other genres.
Now NFS games are run of mill products. Nothing special, old wine in new bottle.
So anyone tried this game so far??
Well review looks promising

sounds shitty to me. I still like NFS most wanted 2012 Online, I have reached level63 in onlinemode. Never even played it offline as its boring
Will start playing this game next week probably by Monday.
everyone liked original NFS MW cause of its story and customisation, this game has it.
BTW there is a spoiler alert story ending in this game
which hints for next game
I was talking about the new nfs mw. not the old original mw

ANOTHER like minded individual.. Its good to meet you, good sir
Yeah I get it, I'm trying to say that this game has a good story too

That is bs. he complaints for one timer, its gonna run for single time.
Well Totalbiscuit is a picky gamer, he is called "cynical" for a reason
Yes u r right. I saw his channel and agree he is. But the comments he put forward are all correct but looks like he is complain so much.
The frame rate issue he mentions is correct.
Can someone explain me why devs are doing this. This is why kotaku says NFS rival looks same in PC and ps4
How bad is it ?? I haven't started it yet.

The game is a port of the console game to PC, that is why when the FPS increases the game runs overfast lol
Same thing happens when you emulate most ps2 games using pcsx2
[noob post]Wow wait, could it be that the game actually has a ps4 emulator hidden in the code? Interesting![/noob post]
Started today , the graphics are good . But the should have removed the Crash scenes and should have provided the options for skipping the intro. etc. Its a PITA in many sense.
What a POS game , locked at 30fps and even drop to mid 20s . I feel like i am playing on my pentium 4 pc .
Most wanted 2012 was playing in hd 3000 but this game minimum requirement is hd 4000 or higher so can't play
so can't play
eh? what graphics card is that?
A
Intel Hd 3000/4000, Intel's integrated Gpu
Another crap game from NFS 
There is a method of successfully bypassing the fps limit WITHOUT speeding up the game BTW
everything has a fix , but the effing crash scenes... gosh. SOmebody needs to tell the NFS dev. team that we are to play a game and not watch some fast and furious 7 action movie. Dayum!!! those crash scenes.
That 60fps fix will only work if your pc can manage constant 60fps , if it drop to 40s and 50s , game become slow motion .
You change the value to 40 or 50 depending what your PC is capable of
And FYI this game has a story at least for the Cop side.
it has got 7/10 in tech2 reviews and yes they also complained about FPS in PC version but console versions are superb
Need for Speed: Rivals Review, Price in India, Specifications - Tech2
Sadly enough, the PC version of the game should be avoided at all costs. For some unfathomable reason, the developers decided to lock the frame rate at 30 fps.
so it has Story + Visuals

I thought , it'll be good since there are exams. Mission based games are exam-killer , TBH.
A student can understand the meaning of my statement in depth.

*Yawn*
how bad is the lag issue on the pc version?is the game absolutely unplayable even on fairly powerful pcs?
CreateBuffer = null directx error ?
very bad . Cant even manage stable 30fps @ low .
i am getting it for xbox 360: next week may be
N
^That's worse than PC version.
but reviewer saying that it shines on console so i thought i will get it for xbox 360. Now i have to hold my purchase before confirmation.
yes 360 version is worsed , dont waste your money .
^^Got it Buddy. Now I think i will stick with F1 2012/Grid 2 till the next racing game comes. I have decided not to buy this game but i read a review from tech2 saying that console version of this game is good. may be they were talking about PS3 but i am not gonna get it because it is already priced high and no multi player ( i mean less players) is big letdown for me. My next Game on X360 would be Don Bradman Cricket 14 Whenever it comes (this month or next month i guess)
Thats good
^^ Yeah. EA is Taking Premier money But not giving Back anything in this game and i have purchased AC4 already so i cant take a chance now.
And I am Following DBC14 from long time and After seeing the game play video from big ant it is on of the best cricket game for me especially i can have a career mode in cricket game. so it is first day buy from me.

^ me too waiting for it better than cancelled ashes 13
Oftopic:- Why there is no thread of that game. i mean i cant create a cricket game thread in my office as it is blocked word. Some one please do it because it is a great game for country like inida where cricket is worshiped as a sport.
^^
cause its cancelled?

yeah exactly

oops sry for jumping in
the game is not laggy at all at constant 30 FPS, i played it in ultra, if there is NO FPS drop or spikes, it wont feel laggy at all, yes the mind will play trick in tough races that "i could run this better if were at 60 FPS", get the tweak available in internet for 60FPS and then use CC to enable the game speed check to any modifier such as 0.5 or 0.6 ( 0.7 perfect for me) smooth. Point is even with the fps lock, one need to find the exact visual setting to set it to "continuous 30", the game is perfectly playable.
What is CC?
well you are right , after playing for 4 hour i can say that this game is indeed better than last year most wanted . And i didnt understand the CC thing :/
Console Commands ~
CheatEngine Console
download cheat engine, run the game, alt tab, open cheat engine console, press the flashing computer button at top left, find NFS exe, select it, look at right hand middle section, enable speed check box, type any value less than 0.8, play the game.
A
wont we get flagged for using a cheat software while playing like this?
where is the cheat? dont know about u, i am already past 4 hour gameplay, 10 cars unlocked.
B
Even if you have i7 4930k and gtx 690,you are going to face issues
Not at all, i am playing @1080p with everything on ultra and FPS never dropped to 29 even its constant 30 on just 7850 card xD
^^ yes, super speedy, the game physics will mess up, also there will be random crashes. One thing i dint like about the game is when u complete a race/pursuit the speed points u earn will totally go to waste even if u score gold and then get busted/wrecked after the the race completes trying to flee from cops, this way the game is progressing but upgrading cars/buying new cars altogether is becoming very hard
it happens often that you complete the pursuit with much effort with a gold with a good car with lot of top speed/acce/control but less durability, then cops bust your balls real bad coz u had already inflicted critical damage while running in that awfully tough race. Then ur SPs go waste. one cant afford to upgrade every car to their full aspects everytime

Its a downside really for anyone. Rewards should be granted if you have completed the event.

^^ How is the SP ONLY experience so far.
if i compare to the games released by EA under Need for Speed titles over last couple of years and back till the dusk of MOST WANTED the original legendary showstopper, this game has so far has not disappointed me in any aspect except from the SP loss i mentioned above. I literally despised all other NFS games except "The Run"for more than one reasons, Rivals has touched all missing corners whatsoever failed previously, car customization, tech upgrade, visuals, variety of events and exceptionally beautiful and beastly cars...cop chases... they remind of the one of the most beloved racing game of all time.So yes i would give Rivals a 8/10 based on SP, since i will never race online.
^^ +1 , multiplayer is also a strong point for this game . Much better than grid 2 . Although it still is not worth the price . If anyone decide to buy , pay 1k max .
Its good to read that SP part is equally good. I thought that without MP the SP experience would be kinda incomplete so wanted to clarify that.
I thought I wud skip this game like other bad NFS Titles...but visuals are asking me to play
One of my friend was saying there is lack of players around the world for this game. is it true? or he might have tried earlier and Now scenario changed.
I am Too inclined towered this game but cant decide what to do after seeing Price.
$hit EA
Indeed , only 6 player max racing simultaneously . it becomes boring and lonely sometime . At current price , game is definitely not worth .
thats why I am unsure about getting it. Anyway thanks for the info.

Well visuals are no doubt good , but you see so much annoying HUD and notification pop at your screen covering around 30-50% of your monitor display . And there is no option to remove those annoying HUD .
This was not in case with Hot pursuit

Well fortunately they are transparent.Well visuals are no doubt good , but you see so much annoying HUD and notification pop at your screen covering around 30-50% of your monitor display . And there is no option to remove those annoying HUD .

Q E O, go to keyboard config, you can also speed drift the car and take snap at the right moment
@topper, HUD is necessary, i connect the laptop to a 32 inch TV and play, big enough to see the car and the headsup distinctly, never bothered me, guess i'm used to it.
on a economic note: i keep a very precise profile on "the choice of buying a game" i don't always buy "just another" game from Steam or origin, nevertheless i buy them other way , but when i do either way, i make sure that i know it wont be a total waste of money. Not to mention i do not play online ( no game ), so the judgement is always based solely on SP experience. Speaking from that perspective i call the money is wasted on a game which failed very hard on points such as "a story that makes at least one-sense", visuals which are not form india pre independence era, NPC/chars are not incredibly stupid, game has a unique taint of humor/violence/philosophy/chaos/tradition which attracts gamers.
Apart from these a game can "seem" to be waste of money is the SP is too damn small and the bigger picture lies in MP, in my case i skip this feel big-time as i look for SP only, so i could say BF4 was waste..but i did not, and then i'm saying, in rivals the other points are as strong as this one, i would like to see if people here finish all races in SP with all cars unlocked in short time
this game ain't for kid-ing...if u know what i mean.
I have an AMD 7770 1GB and I was surprised by the performance I got from this game @ 1080P. That is saying something because Battlefield 4 which is the same engine doesn't do as good with similar settings.
I don't know if its because FPS are more detailed hence more demanding or this game was optimized really well compared to BF4 but I am happy
I don't know if its because FPS are more detailed hence more demanding or this game was optimized really well compared to BF4 but I am happy
is there any FPS fix patch? heard that it is 30fps only in PC
Isn't the game locked at 30fps, you won't really know the performance unless it isn't capped.I have an AMD 7770 1GB and I was surprised by the performance I got from this game @ 1080P. That is saying something because Battlefield 4 which is the same engine doesn't do as good with similar settings.

Yeah it is capped, but it isnt dropping below 30fps as well. It was quite stable for the 2 hours that I played initially. Certainly better than the Most Wanted rehash where the FPS would dip during nighttime and certain locations.
I think There is one working patch above few posts
u can have at most 40-45 FPS gaming experience , not 60, the trick i use is said to provide 60FPS at a half game-speed rate ( as , which it certainly doesn't deliver, but its an improvement definitely.

which file to edit?
my bad, just create a shortcut of the game binary from game installation folder to desktop, and add this arguments in properties tab target box, after the binary location line ends, a space then paste it.
one more thing, you're system must be powerful enough to render the game in constant 60FPS at all times, otherwise the game speed will be screwed.

I gave up on NFS series long time ago. Now I play other racing games like Grid series, Dirt series and several others as well from Steam.
After original Most wanted, all the NFS games looks repetitive
I enjoyed some NFS games post MW 2005 like Carbon, Hot Pursuit 2010 and Shift but after that it was a downhill really. Even those games were not that good but good enough that you can enjoy.
G
Dirt & Grid aren't special either. PC gaming deserve better racing games.
^Project Cars ?
Grid was awesome and previously Dirt series was nice as well.
As for PC gaming well Project Cars and Assetto Corsetta are looking very good as for now.
Well, I mostly enjoyed my sessions with Burnout Paradise.
Still play it occasionally in Party mode with friends. It's fun.
And talking about racing games how can one forget Trackmania. It was awesome, while we (members) use to play.
