Drift
Drift is a driving style and apparently the developers missed this point, the NFS Payback drift is just awful
Ghost are masters in the art of missing the point.
I agree with @viktorpro_271 drift in NFS Payback terrible it's not even a drift but a race for speed that disgusts drift races and do not agree with @Jabberwocky79 because in NFS 2015 was the style of the machine was in a beautiful drift and you can do divine overlays, and in Payback drift for young children
depending on what you focus on i agree more or less, for offline yes its ridicolous just spamming left and right..
for online i think its more realistic, by forcing you to drive fast for having a good multiplier you're also forced to drift more like drift is supposed to be.
but by knowing its an arcade racer, was it ever good in nfs or in other games especially in arcade games ? if so which ones ?
They both cater to kiddies.
Okay so, now I'm confused...now I don't know if it's the game or my lack of drifting skills...somehow I think it's the latter...LOL
I have a Lamborghini aventador level 399 with full upgrades however the opponents with other cars are able to win agaist my car very easily. I am not sure if this car is not the best to use in Drift races in Speedlist or my frifting skills are not that good to win in speedlists.
I have tried a couple of other cars as well but it does not work
Can any one tell what car would be the best one to drift in speed and with perfect control (Braking, acceleration, speed)?
Also I want to know which car is the best for drifting and what live tunning what be the best.
I don't think it's necessarily the "lack of" skill but rather the lack of skill required by Ghost's understanding of drift. Back when GRID 2 came out I held the world drift record for Tier 2 on Cote d'Azur and Hong Kong, but in games like Payback and The Crew I'm bloody awful at drifting.
Games like this reward zig-zagging to connect multiple smaller slides, it's closer to tafheet than drifting. Games like GRID 2 reward long, precise, high speed slides which is how real drifting works.
@mrtun3r Drift in Payback is terrible and not interesting, and I'm wondering whether the developers themselves read the forum EA/Ghost because this topic was raised more than once. Many people want to see high-quality and beautiful drift to enjoy driving
My main problem with drifting in Payback is that it seems to rely on a script to trigger. Which means that unless you're playing it on a quantum computer, there's a good chance that the car won't start drifting even though you did everything right. However this issue was actually worse in NFS 2015 so who knows, maybe they can get it to work correctly in the next game. Somehow, I bloody doubt it.
