Re: Need For Speed Heat Car Wishlist

I think what matters is not specifically what cars are going to take part in the game but how much balance exists between the amount of Japanese European or American cars are taking part in the game.

Personally I feel like adding more old school 80's-90's cars from what ever region  would be a good Idea and mainly the reason why am pointing out such a suggestion is because of the fact that racing games nowadays tend to throw you in the action straight from the beginning and you ll find your self using a high-end super car once you got in the game. That is a feature that I don't like anymore I really missed the rewarding progress of the old NFS games where you start as a nobody with a low-end car and then you get to the top !

As for cars sadly a good variety of TOYOTA cars are going to be missing from the game since the game supports the illegal street races and TOYOTA mentioned that they don't want to be part of that.Also if TOYOTA isn't part of this party means LEXUS won't be here as well. For now I have to give more attention to Mazda which for some reason they only added 3 cars  I mean ok RX7 and mx5's are a must have in the game but where is the Mazdaspeed 3 or any other Mazda?

Now for EU cars it's pretty depressing to see how many Lambos, Porche and BMW's are in there and yet they added only 2 Audi's 3 Aston Martins and for some weird reason 1 Alfa Romeo. I won't get my hands on the other companies but I would prefer to have at least 5 cars from each of the companies and have more car companies added in the game. At least for that we can hope for later update's after the game comes out !

As for Americans I feel like there is a balance between the companies and the cars but Ford takes the lead having more cars than the other companies.

Over all personally am a bit skeptical about the game and having a racing game with that type of list well it almost feels like we be starting the game with a super car and moving our way up to.. I don't know probably a missile. It would be impossible but I really hope to see an update of the car list before the game comes out !

    EA, please try and get Toyota on board for this.  Toyota has been a big backbone in this whole car scene. The nostalgia alone is incredible.  From the Celica 2000 GT, TE27, AE86, Celica GT-Four, 7M supra, Aw11 Mr2, A80 Supra.  To many icons that need to be utilized.

    @the4guyz That's up to Toyota not EA,if Toyota says no,theres nothing EA can do to force Toyota return to NFS

    I know its up to Toyota but there has to be a way to persuade them. This game yes its street racing but at its core its more about the cars themselves and the modifications. Free promoting/marketing goes a long way as well.  Enthusiasts would love to unlock the new Supra and have a nice glance at the interior.  I understand where Toyota is coming from but this is a video game as long as they include a disclaimer they can cover their *.

    @the4guyz I'm not Toyota officials so I don't have official answer, but I guess it's a thing of patriotism. Japanese games still have Toyota like Initial D and Wangan, but other non-Japanese games can't have licensed Toyota street cars now. The only sensible idea is JDM exclusivity of patriotism. And that's acceptable
