DLC Suggestion: Outrun/VaporWave & Sunset Races

I have a suggestion for some DLC that fans might be willing to purchase.

As the subject suggests, an "Outrun" / "Vaporwave" music pack with sunset races to set a mood which I think fits perfectly with the setting of Heat.

A couple suggestions for the music:

Navigating by Astrale, Slyleafe, wyndr

Inhale by New Arcades

Clean Eyes by SYML, the MIdnight

All in Our Eyes by Lielo, Align

More ideas can be found on /r/outrun/

For the races, if something can be done with the lighting system to give some dramatic sunset hues, place the races in the hills that overlook the city to give a full view of the sunsets, set it to this music would set a chill mood I would love to play.  Perhaps a new story could be added that once completed awards you a Delorean or something else appropriate.

Since the races are set at sunset, the player could decide if they want to play a bank or a rep race.  The bank race being like a day race, more chill without serious police interference.

Anyway, I'd buy this, I've muted the in game music and play my own all the time.

Love this game BTW, good job EA!  I want more reasons to play it!

  • @Sub1eGang So basically you want YOUR soundtrack songs and a mild change to lighting... good luck expecting anyone to want to purchase it. Most just run their own music in the background already because the game has terrible songs
  • Thanks for giving me credit for the whole genre, but yes: a new music pack, new races, new side story and a new car.

  • @Sub1eGang Keep dreaming. They can't even fix the bugs they've said they fixed already.... this game won't last long enough for them to put any money in to it.
  • @Sub1eGang That would be sweet. Its a good idea so maybe we will see those songs at least. There is plenty of time for them to make changes game hasn't been out long.
  • @Sub1eGang I doubt Outrun NFS will be a thing. EA/GG can't capture the essential style of 1980s.Also Outrun never had Police actions so it won't fit in this NFS where police chase is a core gameplay.

    @Sub1eGang About Outrun, the game never have a complete story.It was just you drive a Ferrari with a girl on passenger seat to race to the finish line. No character no connection no real dialogue(Main player stay silent all the time)

    Outrun is also a genre/style of music too.  Its based on 80's, 90's electronic music
