Need for Speed Payback - EA Servers connectivity issues (Playstation 5)
Hi, in the last few days I have tried to connect to the online features, several times a day but to no success. I always get the error: "ATTENTION you need to sign in to your ea account to access the online features of this game ..... ". It's worth mentioning that I own several EA games and I have tested them with no issues. I tried everything possible, changed the password, changed DNS manually, restored licenses, restarted the console, everything. I wanted to open a ticket/incident/case with EA but it's impossible to find where to do it. This whole situation is very frustrating. Thanks for your attention!2Views0likes0CommentsUnbound is the best modern NFS for me.
I've been an avid Unbound player since April 2023. I played all the volumes released by Team Kaizen and greatly enjoyed them. Of course, the game is not perfect, riddled with many bugs here and there, but that hasn't stopped me from enjoying it. When I tried 2015 and Heat, I personally found them less enjoyable then Unbound. The physics of the 2015 reboot were terrible, and in Heat, cars feel heavy and understeery. I haven't tried Payback, and I probably won't ever try it because of all the negative reviews I heard about it. Because of this, I personally consider Unbound the best among modern NFS.12Views0likes0CommentsProposal for the Future of NFS: A Direct Sequel to the 2005 Legend
Dear Need for Speed Development Team, As a long time fan of this franchise, I am writing to share a vision shared by a massive segment of the global gaming community. Despite the passage of nearly two decades, Need for Speed Most Wanted 2005 remains the undisputed peak of the series. To this day, it is rare to find a PC gamer who does not still have this masterpiece installed. The unique atmosphere, the high stakes Blacklist progression, and the intense police pursuits created a formula that has not been matched since. In light of the mixed reception of recent titles, I believe the most innovative out of the box move would be to return to the past. Developing a direct sequel to the 2005 original preserving its core identity while utilizing modern engine capabilities would be a guaranteed revolution that restores the franchise to its former glory. I would highly appreciate it if you could share your thoughts on this proposal. I am eager to hear whether this direction aligns with your future vision, and I look forward to your feedback on this idea. Best regards, Mohamad Salim13Views0likes0CommentsI can’t access the middle section of the interface in NFS No limits
This issue first appeared when I accidentally clicked something in the store, the Apple pay popped up and I cancelled it. Ever since I did that I can’t access the middle section of the interface which means I can’t access special events, storage, mods, or anything that is located in between the upper and lower bar, which is freaking annoying. I’m on iOS 26 and I guess they still haven’t figured how to modify the game so that it’s compatible with the latest iOS. I tried to elevate it with the support, but the support is hopeless and helpless.8Views0likes0CommentsCannot log into EA account on PS4 – linked but error appears

Hello Need for Speed team / EA. I have an idea for the future of the Need for Speed franchise. I would love to see a new NFS game that combines realism, freedom, and the best features from previous games: Graphics quality similar to Forza Horizon 5 Fully dynamic day and night cycle (not separated). A large open world with city, highways, and countryside. A big car roster including Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren. Deep car customization like the Underground era. Improved police chases similar to Need for Speed Heat but with smarter AI. More realistic visuals (no cartoon-style effects). Basically: a mix of Need for Speed Heat atmosphere, No Limits car variety, and Forza Horizon 5-level graphics. I believe this direction could bring the franchise back to its peak popularity and attract many new players. Thank you for reading!30Views0likes0CommentsHunter Hunted jack 10 vehicles
So I must be misunderstanding the mission or something, I attacked people until they’re unable to leave and then “jack” their ride. The whole “the owner can see you now best be ready” by driver X or whatever he’s called….. I’ve done it twice in 1 session and nothing happened, I grab it drive a bit look at the mission status nothing…. So I grab my own vehicle again and try again and once more it does nothing so what else am I supposed to do? Any tips aid or whatever would be nice please. Kinda feel bad to do this to ppl when my mission isn’t even progressing21Views0likes0CommentsNfs idea
Hey @NeedforSpeed / @CriterionGames 👋👋 I’ve been a BIG fan of nfs and I wanted to share some ideas I think would make the next NFS amazing: 1. Japan map🗺️ 2. Nfs heat back fire🔥 3. Open world 🌆 4. More cars (ex. Subaru legacy 3.0r, volvo s60R, etc)🚗 5. More customization 6. Better sounds🔊 7. Name idea (Need for Speed: Neon)💡 I’m even trying to make my own racing game inspired by NFS 🎮 Would love to hear what you think! 💬31Views0likes0CommentsCome on, make this need for Speed?
Subject: Feature Request for Next NFS: The "Ultimate Underground" Vision To the Need for Speed Development Team, I am writing to share a vision for the next generation of Need for Speed on PS5 that would bridge the gap between classic tuner culture and modern open-world freedom. To make this the "baddest" game in the franchise's history, it needs to focus on these specific features: 8K Photorealistic Graphics: We want gritty, photorealistic graphics optimized for 8K resolution. The world needs to look real—no cartoon effects—with realistic lighting on neon streets and rain-slicked asphalt. On-Foot Escapes & GTA Freedom: Players should be able to jump out of their cars to evade police on foot, hide in alleys, or walk through realistic car meets. If the car is cornered, the chase isn't over until the player is caught. Ultimate Engine Building: No "either/or" restrictions. We want to build Compound Twin-Charged setups (turbo feeding a supercharger) with nitrous. Let us build the engine the way we want with total freedom. Total Customization: Customization for everything—hoods, wings, the entire interior (dash, seats, wheels), and "cutaway" options to show off engine swaps and custom frames. Online World with AI Cops: A seamless online experience where AI "Computer Cops" are always hunting you, using PIT maneuvers, helicopters, and aggressive tactics. Must-Have "Bad Boy" Car List: The Complete Pontiac GTO Legacy: Every generation from the oldest 1964/1965 originals and the 1969 Judge, all the way up to the newest 2006 models with LS1, LS2, and LS3 engine options. The Complete Toyota Supra Legacy: Every generation from the oldest Celica Supras to the legendary A80 (2JZ-GTE) all the way up to the newest A90 models. The Nissan Skyline/GT-R Legacy: Every generation from the oldest "Hakosuka" to the R32, R33, R34, and the newest R35 GT-R. The Complete Honda Civic Collection: Every generation from the classic 90s hatchbacks (EG/EK) to the Si and the 2026 Type R. Modern Powerhouses: 2011 Mazda Mazdaspeed 3 Sport, Chevy Corvette (LS9/ZR1), Chevy Tahoe, Dodge Demon/Hellcat Redeye, 2015/16 BMW M5 (Twin-Turbo V8), and Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. Classic "Oldies" & 2026 Future: 1969 Dodge Charger R/T, 1970 Chevelle SS, 2026 Dodge Charger EV, and 2026 Porsche 911 Hybrid. This is the game the streets are talking about. If you build this, it will be the most successful racing game29Views0likes0Commentsrenew Need for speed undeground serwers Me ex Projekt manager
Hi, it's me, Frank Benton, who wants to renew the servers of the game Need for Speed Underground 2 at my own request as a former Project Manager and I want to renew the game. It has gained a lot of popularity and has a lot of interest in it.34Views0likes0CommentsNeed for Speed Underground 1 Nostalgia
The best Need For Speed I've ever played is Underground 1 - no doubt and with big lead. Let's start with the stunning intro videos and amazing soundtrack through the street-tuning culture to the customising of amazing iconic cars (like Nissan Skyline, Toyota Supra and many others) while they are moving in the underground garage seen from different angles. A remaster of this game for PS5 and other modern / current consoles would immortalise it in the gaming history. And personally for me - it would be a dream come truth - as well as for million gamers around the world. EA, just ask yourselves - would it worth it recreating a remaster of NFS Underground 1? This is the game that I definitely miss every day.40Views0likes0CommentsLockdown mode Racing AI driver and lane reset
Good game and all that blahblah but I got 2 major issues that should be fixed A S A P. NFS Unbound Lockdown mode online 1st When leaving a race if you crash within 5 seconds (because of worthless AI driver driving at full speed while passing off to the user) you should not be Wrecked and lose everything. 5 second invincibility will fix this after the user takes control. The fact AI drives at full speed for up to 30 seconds in online is absolutely **bleep** and needs to immediately be stopped or become invincible until 5 seconds after user takes control. 2nd is when you reset during a race for leaving lanes, flipped, whatever the case may be. Again 5 second invincibility. I should not reset back onto the race lane and be immediately hit by cops racers or NPC civilians then wrecked that’s just **bleep** specially during lockdown where wrecked means losing everything 3rd and last, a cop should not be able to pin you in the fkn air without you being able to reset vehicle to be on land with all wheels. (User’s car should not be able to sit ontop of Enemy or Police vehicle without the car reseting nor halfway on cop/racer pinned against wall. To be boxed in and lose is fair but to be air pinned or half air pinned is NOT acceptable way to be busted since the game is supposed to reset you back to full ground touch) I can deal with this not being fixed since technically it’s a way to get busted by cops but since the game is supposed to reset when you’re on your side I don’t find this acceptable way to have been busted so yes I’m being a crybaby about it.25Views0likes0CommentsNo poder Unirse a Bandas/Can’t Join Crews
Volvi a instalarme el juego después de un tiempo pero no me deja unirme s bandas, al buscar o crear una banda, me sale que contiene lenguaje obsceno. Intente hablar con EA y no me pudieron ayudar, quien tiene soluciones. I installed the game again and can’t even create or join a crew because it got obscene language, I typed even hello and it say is obscene36Views0likes0CommentsWhat the heck?! EA-NFS-Heat
I’ve got no idea what’s going on with their stuff but there is no way for me to play online. I’ve tried to load it and it’s given me 3 different error codes at different times, but it won’t synchronize my items. Then it tells me to contact customer support. I’ve tried that. The AI program they have running a chat room can’t connect you to a live person because for a 50 something billion dollar company they can’t even answer a phone. Yet they take our money with our blissful ignorance to ever get ahold of them if a problem arises. Such nonsense that a company can charge so much per person every month and make money off us, and we can’t even get them to pick up a phone and handle a situation. 👎 your service sucks. Your AI bots just put people in a loop and you still get away with asinine jackassery like this.53Views0likes0CommentsNFS 2015 constantly crashing upon opening
Hi all, I wanted to go back and play NFS 2015 on my PlayStation. However since downloading it, upon opening the game I can’t make it past the menus the game just crashes. I have downloaded it on my ps4, my ps5, both to try and get it to work and no matter what I do I can’t get it to work. I’m wondering if anyone has had the same issue and if they’ve managed to fix? thank you54Views0likes0CommentsPantalla 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.36Views0likes0Comments
