@GK3512 Yeah and that is making me so sad, because im actually older then the NFS series. 6 years older too be honest, so i actually hate too see it die. But if they cant ditch this FF trend and bring back cannonball, the series can just die out honestly.
About Cannon Ball NFS games.
I'm not a fan of them, but I don't see why they can't make one. They've tried recreating the Underground experience, twice if you count Heat, and failed, they've tried a Casino NFS, literally, and failed; so why not try another Cannon Ball NFS game.
Not saying I'd buy it, but it's worth a try.
- @ZeroMcDol Because EA is obsessed with 16 Million sales success of MW05 and 12 Million sales success of UG1.HP2010 which was the most recent polished Cannonball NFS only sold 5-6 Millon,about 1/3 of MW05.However the success of MW05/UG are based on the fever of FF ricer/chav films.The time of chav is gone now.Hence why PS4 era NFS reboot and Heat failed as hell.
Cannonball style proved to be successful across generations.Also used as the style of first for every generation ever since HP1 put out in 1998.It's reasonable to bring it back for next gen(what fake useless Criterion is working on/looking for devs to work on now)Personally, and this is just my opinion. Heat failed due to bad design mechanics. Traffic = Bad design mechanics, Cops = Bad design mechanics, AI Racers above easy = Bad design mechanics, and now for me, Camera swaying left and right = Bad design mechanics; Plus an incomplete story, and nothing to do after reaching the Rep cap, besides farming money for cars that get blitzed by a single car.
These things and others that have been mentioned in the forums are game breaking, and IMO, what destroyed Heat from the get go.
Edit: If I had known that all of this was going on, I never would've bought Heat. Unfortunately tho, these are things that were not mentioned in the YouTube Reviews.
I agree about Cannonball games, in terms of the amount of sales. They did well, but nowhere near as successfully as the FF/MW style games.
As a gamer who started out in the NFS series with UG1, Cannonball NFS games were just not something that I was in to. Even now, I much prefer excellent physics and gameplay in-combination with a decent story for the racing games that I choose to play.
- @ZeroMcDol NFS always start a generation with Cannonball style and HP2010 was the last polished Cannonball game.It's natural for EA/Fake Criterion to make such style as the next NFS since it's the first of PS5/XSX era.However without a replacement for Fake Criterion NFS isn't gonna stay for much longer judging by how many devs/series has been shut down previously.
