Re: What changes can we expect from HP2010 Remastered?

Car list:

Doesn't appear to have changed, at all. However, the DLC looks like it will be included, so technically those on PC will have the opportunity to use cars previously inaccessible. Can be found here for anyone interested: https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/need-for-speed/need-for-speed-hot-pursuit-remastered/news/nfs-hp-remastered-car-list

Three cars have been removed from the Remastered version:

1. Carbon Motors E7

2. Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 722

3. Mercedes-Benz SLR Sterling Moss

Miscellaneous changes and quality of life improvements etc include:

  • An extra six hours of gameplay, with over 30 extra challenges.

It's speculation, but people claimed the extra 6 hours of gameplay is just the DLC content that was released back then (which was entirely missing for the PC version back then).

Both of which I saw in the Need For Speed subreddit: Hot Pursuit Remastered Discussion Thread (Releasing November 6, 2020 PC,XBOX,PS4 - 13th for Switch)

    Goddammit, can't I ever get anything right?

    But thank you for correcting me, if anything that makes it a "demaster" in some regards! The SLR particularly will be missed by myself and others too no doubt... Guessing the E7 would've been difficult to license.

    On the topic of the extra content, you are very right, and should that be the case it'd be highly disappointing. Judging by the track record for EA and GHOST/"old Criterion" (not necessarily indicative of Criterion's return of course) that may well be the case. I do hope for the best though (that'd be the scenario where there are significant differences and the events were brand-new) which is unlike me!

    Very sorry for my stupidity. Thought I'd jump on the NFS HP2010 remastered board as quickly as possible, but that clearly backfired, haha.

    Thanks again, have yourself a good one!

    @TheRealJony The 3 packs events of Porsche Unleashed/Lamborghini Untamed(I wish this become next NFS game)/Super Sports were possible to be used in PC version of original HP2010 with mods.But the cars are still impossible to be moved to PC(without emulator of PS3)

    @Jacobba55 SLR duo wont return because the complexity of Mc/Merc license problem(AKA EA refuse to pay double time)E7 was because Carbon bankrupted back in 2013 for fraud and lack of funding.So all 3 missing cars are reasonable.SLR 722 was used by SCPD in the event Hotting Up(Shown in trailer)so they were replaced by Sesto Elemento from Lamborghini Untamed pack.Quite weird replacement,I thought MP4-12C will be the replacement.
