Need For Speed High Stakes

I cannot be the only one that dreams of a sequel to Need for speed High Stakes or a remaster with more tracks, more cars, updated graphics with the same sim/arcade style physics.

like I find myself wanting to play it to this day 3-4 times a year, just hearing the music gets me excited, no other game ever got me so excited.

make a poll and see how many people would be interested , id pay a premium not even going to lie. 

I want it to be very challenging with having to pay to fix your car and that crashing is very punishing to be very high risk vs reward so it is "high stakes". 

maybe even add aspects of other games like "the run" and add fuel stops , maintenance and repairs.  have a cannon ball mode so there is a lot of replay ability of trying to beat your high score or your friends time, having modifications like adding things like radio's, satellite GPS and dual fuel tanks  etc. that can be unlocked as you replay the game. adding a new car could change the meta and keep bringing new players in for a new season etc. with a season pass. 

I would love to see a remaster of the run, and high stakes, id love to see both into one game.

  • Imagine having different series like

    -Toyota Prius cross country with a high score ladder

    - musket ball cross country ( car with less then 100 horsepower ) 

    - race car class w/ cross country race

    - Italian super car round up 

    - team mode or vs mode ( drafting event )  cross country

    ect ect

    the slow classes would be very challenging to escape cops making them very fun and interesting, you would have to avoid getting heat , you also have to avoid slowing down as it would take a long time to speed up and also eat up your gas.

    Thanks for trying the time to share your feedback @Donutsupply.

    Would be great to see more NFS games.

  • I am a big fan of cannonball and I would love a game where it is very punishing to break laws, but highly rewarding to pull it off without crashing, this is a game mechanic I wish we could have, imagine being stuck behind a cop in a slow car wanting to get passed but being scared to speed past him and having to wait for them to get on a off ramp, this could break your record run but all in good fun adding randomness to the gameplay, or you see some other car get pulled over so you can speed past ( could be your friend or random AI or even a crash) 

    also please no Hollywood scenes like The Run, it was fun but I would really like realism to be the number 1 factor making this type of game, also you would have Ed at vin wiki ( YouTube personality) super happy and I am sure he would be a great person to consult with when making the game, it would even be great for him to read the dialog,

    and please add a remastered soundtrack of highstakes :D
