Pantalla Negra / Black Screen
Acabo de comprar todos los Need For Speed en steam y los 2 de Mass Effect.... ninguno se ejecuta, se quedan en pantalla negra, ya intenté ejecutarlos en pantalla completa, como administrador, instalé DXVK y nada, no debe de haber problema con mi configuración puesto que con ningun otro juego tengo problemas tengo Xeon 1660 v3, GTX 1660 y 32gb de ram DDR4... juego cualquier cosa sin problemas excepto estos juegos molestos en los que se abre un launcher molesto :) I just bought all the Need for Speed games on Steam and both Mass Effect games... none of them will run, they just get stuck on a black screen. I've already tried running them in full screen, as administrator, I installed DXVK and nothing works. There must not be a problem with my setup since I don't have problems with any other games. I have a Xeon 1660 v3, a GTX 1660, and 32GB of DDR4 RAM... any game runs perfectly except for these annoying games that open an annoying launcher.
Lotus siege s rap disappear
I just unlocked the lotus siege s for winning the win a car race, and for some reason when I changed the body kit, the main japan style rap disappeared. This makes me really angry because I love Japan and it has made up most of my personality, so I was really happy that the car had that. But when I tried to change the body kit back to the one it came with, with the japan custom rap, it was just gone! I cant get it back and was wondering if anyone could help. I didn't exit the garage, and I didn't save the changes I made, so I'm confused why it deleted itself.
Controller Mapping for nfs unbound completely off
after trying everything, updating controllers, restarting everything, reinstalling everytging, reseting the controller settings ingame, clearing the chache, launching it via steam through big picture mode nothing worked the ps5 controller still has completely messed up controlls... R2 ist X L2 is O while X is direction up and triangle is direction down please help I fixing it for hours right now.Changing Vehicle Glitch
I tried doing any of the races and the game will automatically put me in a select vehicle. What's worse is when you put a side bet and leave, you loose all the funds. Has anyone had this issue the at the game will put you in a vehicle that you clearly didn't select. I tried to repeat and it indeed happened again.
Problem launching NFS Unbound
I recently tried to install mods on my NFS unbound, after they didnt work I decided to just play the game normally. So I decided to uninstall the mod files and mod manager I had. After that my game started acting up and crashing. I tried opening it afterwards and kept giving me an Try again error, I would wait a few minutes but wouldnt launch. Tried reinstalling and still wouldn't work, unlinked and relinked steam and EA, and even asked ChatGPT for a walkthrough to help fix it but nothing I have tried seems to be working. The game just wont launch no matter how long I wait. I m stuck and dont know what to do.
Corrupted game save? Really lost.
So recently in lakeshore online, i got error code 9, and 6 message, and had fixed them by deleting the corrupted wrap and a few others, and sold the cars to be safe. Not long after, one of the wrap’s duplicated itself onto a car i don’t own, couldn’t delete it as it said it was equipped too, the fix for that was to remove everything i had in storymode. Now, when i went back to lakeshore online, anytime i tried to make a wrap, it would immediately corrupt my game and i have tried so many fixes, i’m genuinely lost because this is ridiculous. Has anyone else dealt with this? Is there just no way to fix the game at this point?
can't play lockdown because bug lifetime points & contracts
So, the first contract has all been completed, the problem is that to play you have to choose a contract first, I chose Rockport Legends, it couldn't be selected, but I also couldn't choose the Our for the Takings contract because the lifetime points weren't enough, in the end I couldn't play lockdown mode because I hadn't chosen a contract, and the contract had to have lifetime points, looking for lifetime points had to play lockdown, but playing lockdown without bringing a contract was also not allowed, what's the solution? I've searched this forum, there was one person who had the same problem, but no solution was given, he just said "you can play lockdown without having to choose a contract" but you can see for yourself in the screenshot I provided, in fact I can't do that because I have to choose a contract first before playing, and until now there is still no clear solution. It looks like there won't be a solution because the developer is no longer in charge of this game, it's a shame, but who knows, the community here has experienced it and knows the solution, that would really help me.Races only giving me $250 and not increasing
I just won two races, one for $28,000 and another for $30,000 in single player mode, I just realized that the amount is at $250 at risk. I went to my Garage to see if it was just a bug and it only banked the $250. I played another high pay out race, and still only gave me $250 l, is anyone going through this issue? How can I get this fixed?G923 - Steering Wheel Issue
I can’t use my Logitech G923 in Xbox Unbound. I don’t think integrating this wheel would be difficult, and there are a large number of players experiencing the same issue. I purchased the game with all available packages, but I’m unable to play it with my G923. This is very disappointing, and I hope you can address this problem as soon as possible
Drift counter bug
The drift counter in Drift Pro Series has serious problems. It cannot correctly count drift chains on most cars, but this problem is partially absent on the 2023 BMW M2 Coupe. Proximity does not appear during drifting near bumpers, but simply from lobby to lobby. As a player who greatly enjoys the presence of such drift mechanics in the game, which were introduced with Drift Pro tires, I kindly request that you return to the game for a short period and please fix the drift counter.NFS Unbound: Lockdown Mode Infinite loading blackscreen
Yesterday I have extracted the Razor's BMW M3 GTR, after the cutscene, it gets stuck to a blackscreen for almost 10 minutes, I decided to restart the game, after clicking on multiplayer menu, I saw the loading thing that tells you "checking inventory", it took longer than usual, and once I could get in, I checked first the garage and I couldn't see this car anywhere but when I checked contracts, it was marked as completed. I have sent an email to the support, chatted with a support thing, I don't know if it was an IA or not because it asked me to send a proof that I have completed the contract. And now I am just waiting. I also have checked others forums and some people said that cars cannot be duplicated and get replaced by cash, and some of them say you cannot have too many cars (some people say the maximum is 200 and it counts solo cars you have too) , just to know: it was the first time I extract this car, I may have a similar one but is the 30 years edition so I don't know if it's the reason why I can't have 2 BMW M3, I don't have 100 in both solo and multiplayer so I don't even have 200 cars. I am now confused so if someone can explain to me it would be nice.
DX12 instability and long-session crashes on PC (DX11 stable)
Platform PC (Windows 11 Pro) Game Version Latest available version (post-Vol. 9, end-of-support build) Issue Summary Need for Speed Unbound exhibits consistent instability when running under DirectX 12, resulting in crashes after variable playtime (10 minutes to ~1–2 hours). The same system is fully stable under DirectX 11, and other DX12 titles run without issue. This strongly suggests an engine-level DX12 issue specific to NFS Unbound, rather than a hardware or driver problem. This issue has been reproduced across multiple driver versions and persists on next-generation hardware. System Specifications • Motherboard : ASUS GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI DDR5 • PSU : ASUS ROG Thor Titanium III 1600W ATX 3.1 Platinum • CPU : Intel core i9-14900KF 6.00 GHz • RAM : Crucial Pro UDIMM 2x 64GB DDR5-5600 (128GB) • GPU : ASUS ROG Astral GeForce RTX 5090 White OC 32GB • WaterCooler : Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 420 A-RGB Black (System is stable in all other DX12 games, including new Battlefield and Call Of Duty.) Reproduction Details Launch the game using default settings (DX12, no custom launch options) Play normally (offline or online) Crash occurs after: 30–45 minutes in some cases Up to ~1–2 hours in others Crashes commonly occur during: Police chases Race transitions Garage/menu transitions Long uninterrupted sessions (such as collectables etc.) No consistent error message is shown; game exits to desktop. Expected Result Stable long-session gameplay under DX12, comparable to DX11 stability and to other modern DX12 titles. Troubleshooting Already Performed Clean GPU driver installs (multiple versions tested) Windows system checks (event logs, system integrity) Verified no malware or OS corruption Hardware inspection and thermal maintenance No GPU overclocking or instability Confirmed stability in other DX12 games None of the above resolved DX12 crashes in NFS Unbound. Workarounds Forcing DirectX 11 via launch option (-dx11) results in full stability, even during long sessions. This suggests DX11 driver-level memory management is masking an underlying DX12 engine issue. Additional Notes This issue persisted across multiple updates/volumes. Patch notes mention “general stability fixes” but do not reference DX12-specific crash fixes. With Vol. 9 appearing to be the final major update, it is unclear whether this issue was ever fully addressed. The same issue was previously observed on an RTX 3090. Stability was achieved only by forcing DX11 and limiting GPU power to 70–80%, allowing 6–7 hour sessions without crashes. Conclusion This appears to be a DX12 implementation or memory/resource management issue within Need For Speed Unbound, not a system-specific or hardware-related problem. Even on next-generation hardware, DX12 remains unstable while DX11 is reliable. Any clarification on whether this issue is: Known internally Considered resolved Or no longer planned to be addressed would be appreciated.
