The Ultimate NFS Sequel Concept: Connecting Rockport, Bayview, and Palmont
GAME 1: NEED FOR SPEED: LEGENDS OF SPEED The story begins in a massive open world that seamlessly connects the legendary cities of Rockport, Bayview, and Palmont through giant highways. The atmosphere is peak realism; when driving at night through Bayview, neon lights reflect perfectly in the wet asphalt, and the rain physics are so advanced that water flows aerodynamically off the car's body, forming long streaks that fly toward the back. In the vast fields between cities, a Distance Fog effect is used to create a sense of infinite scale where you see thousands of tiny, flickering point-lights from distant streetlamps and small towns, making the map feel endless. The progression is brutal, requiring you to defeat 20 Blacklist members, each commanding their own gang of 6 to 8 racers who freely roam the map. You can encounter them at any time, and as you climb the ranks to Blacklist 3, the streets clear of amateurs, leaving only the elite gangs patrolling, racing each other, or provoking Heat 5 police pursuits right in front of you. After defeating all 20 members, a massive plot twist occurs when a rival you thought was defeated, The Traitor, makes a secret alliance with Officer Cross. In a midnight ambush, while your crew is celebrating, hundreds of police units descend upon the hideout. In the chaos, The Traitor steals your legendary BMW M3 GTR right out of the garage. You manage to escape through the mud and rain, but Mia and the rest of your crew, including legends like Tyler Morgan and Anna, are captured and thrown in jail. The game ends with you alone in a dusty shack, staring at photos of your crew while a news report shows Officer Mercer announcing he has taken control of the cities with an army of 300 secret agents. GAME 2: NEED FOR SPEED: FINAL EXODUS The sequel starts months after the disaster, with you acting as a ghost. You begin working from the shadows, hacking into police databases through Prep missions to break your crew out of prison transport vans. When you finally intercept the armored trucks and free Tyler or Anna, they are shocked to see you, asking if you are really that legendary racer from the stories. As the crew reunites, you begin sabotaging Mercers high-tech infrastructure. The turning point comes when Mia appears in her iconic red Mazda RX-8, now fully rendered in high-definition 3D. She tells you to get in because she has found where the traitor is hiding your BMW. After a high-stakes chase where she drives to the absolute limit through the canyons of Palmont, you finally corner the traitor, drag him out of his seat, and reclaim your BMW M3 GTR. With the beast back in your hands, the ultimate plan begins: The Great Exodus. Mercer and Cross activate all 300 secret agents to stop you. Your entire crew of 20 legendary cars unites for a final 50-kilometer High-Speed Chase toward a massive cargo ship waiting in the industrial port. Drones explode around you and helicopters fire EMPs, but you push the BMW to 350 km/h, watching the rain fly off the hood in the most realistic way possible. At the port, the ship's ramp is closing, and one by one, your friends jump their cars onto the vessel. You fly in last with the M3 GTR, feeling the tires hit the metal just as the massive steel door slams shut. Cross and Mercer, in their armored interceptors, attempt a desperate final jump but slam into the closed door and plunge directly into the deep waters of the port. Through the ships porthole, you watch them sink into the darkness, their police lights flickering underwater until they go out forever. The game does not end there; the ship sails toward a new horizon, becoming a World Tour where the story continues in new cities like Tokyo or London, while in Online mode, you perform massive Heists to fund the most complex tuning for your entire collection.
To NFS NO LIMITS Developers - Stop Being so HARD & add new locations soon,
Hello EA Team I downloaded NFS No limits a month ago,and i started playing this game it was really fun at start and then its like Asphalt 8 Pay2proceed further. To be honest,I REALLY Loved the realistic Graphics..so i didn't hesitate to give my hard earned money to EA I've spended more than 220$ and I'm VIP 6 NOW I think you fool the users by your ads and after i become vip only thing i can see in my account is gold,fuels increased,event replays,race skips 5 per day,tournament tickets what you added like all access pass and Purchase all access 1 per day is lie and you don't give access.. If i have to just wait like other free users then what is the use of me being Vip ? I know how to race on tracks like this...if some other normal novice user paid this money he would have lost everything you offered and he had to pay it again in order to play this game No matter how much users feed you money...they can't proceed further and have to pay it again coz thats what you want from us We like to play games for fun. EA games are really the best but its sad instead of making games for fun you make awesome game like this to make business This is how you designed this game Starting the game with easy levels then increasing the PR level in campaign and rep level...so people should go and play car series to increase their rep level ...Within few levels people will run out of cash and gold and they must definitely feed you money to proceed further ..Also the fuel,ticket restrictions kills the fun in this game Moreover,this is a very short game with very few level and it is boring as hell to play that same levels again & again... I will accept that this game is good if you have added so many levels in this game WITH VARIOUS LOCATIONS. I feel bad that i should pay you money again inorder to complete this game ..I Will be happy if i pay some money to you and play in different location but this game has insane graphics but its too small and those location that are played in this entire game are all with same locations..Duh My favorite game from EA is NFS Run...its the best racing game...and the location were really cool to play... So instead of wasting the development time on thinking how to grab more money from people and to put people in dead trap...so that they must pay you money Please start adding new locations...i wish i can see more locations in this game like NFS Run i dont know whether you try to shrink the size of the game with very few levels..please add new locations....Even if this game is 3 gb we won't hesitate to download because simply its awesome.. I'm not satisfied with purchase...so i asked for refund...EA sending false report to google like you have refunded the money where you truly didn't refunded me. When i asked this to support...they are gifting me cash ..i really dont like this attitude from EA.Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered-Find Session stopped working Xbox
On 10/20/25 there was a aws outage and ever since then the “find session” no longer works for xb players. It will try searching for the first time but will stop soon after and each subsequent time the search is shorter and shorter until it just kicks you back to the online multiplayer menu screen.

Speed points not increasing - NFS Most wanted 2012 PC
Hi all, I've been playing NFS Most Wanted (2012) on PC for a while but my Speed Points won't increase anymore whenever I win a race. I can see the game says I have won more points, but my total does not increase. I have tried the repair option on the EA desktop app, and tried reinstalling the game but these have not worked. I know I have not reached the in game limit of speed points Unfortunately this is stopping me from progressing in the game. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks!

Symptoms include: * Video stutter / frame drops * Audio crackling or cutting out * FPS drops only during cinematics * Gameplay remains smooth and stable The issue appears **only on cutscenes**, not during racing or normal gameplay. --- ### **Reproduction Steps** 1.

A patch or workaround for video playback decoding would help affected users.
Just wanted to drop it here so I can tell myself I gave my opinion
Hello, I know it will probably never happen but well why not XD I really think they should remaster NFSMW 2005. Like just slap good graphic on there and sell it! They could even make a remaster like mass effect with underground 1-2 Most Wanted and carbon all in one and they would literally make millions and players all around the world will be really happy! That's it for me please don't be mean ahahah i just love those old NFS and none of the new ones grab the feeling i had while playing those! i still fire my gamecube once a year to play MW 2005 all over again. Have a great day all!!!did not get verification code when loggin in game
