Keep nfs rivals online !!

e.a. Showed again they dont give nothing about ther costumers by pulling the plug out off the online multiplayer on the 5th October 2025.
this means that they shutdowns the best multiplayer online ever Made by need for speed , stil love this game but ea forces you this way to buy there new NFS games witch i think is really bad , as if iT dont cost nothing , myself got all the dlc s and extra s and to set records i got a second ps 4 so when i heard they Will stop supporting iT i could belief iT ,(

Rivals is stil very alive!! As i am every day online in the game i see its very busy ,many players are disturb by this news , and Couldnt belief iT when this was being told in the most wanted group witch I made….

Ea leaves his costumers again in the cold , while th
ey still sell the game and wont back iT up!!

Keep NFS rivals online racing alive !!

    Hello swesseling116​,

    Unfortunately every multiplayer game will reach the day that the online services will be shut down. Nothing can be done regarding this issue.

    I find this a really good excuse to get out what’s bin sold to many poeple all over the world , this way they force you to buy there new games , not forcing but if you like playing online with friends  they leave you no choise this I find and I know a lot of players think the same a dirty trick from the companys they don’t think of the customers screw them all you want to play online buy new game some don’t even have the money to buy new games there’s to Mutch going on poeple save there money instead of bying games and to know that within a couple of years the game can’t be online no more , once you bring out a game you should support this for ever

    Need For Speed Rivals online servers are permanently shutting down on October 7, 2025, not on October 5, 2025. You're off by 2 days. 🙂

    At least NFS Rivals can still be played offline after its online servers get permanently shut down. You can still play the game, but only with AIs and not with real players. 

    Worst thing is you can't even play the game anymore after its servers get permanently shut down, which is unfortunately the case for many games such as NFS World and The Crew 1.

    It would be enough to simply accommodate players and make online trophies obtainable offline, especially if they are plagued by serious bugs. For example, I recently started playing NFS Rivals, but I'll never be able to get the two online trophies (and therefore the platinum) due to the infamous Friends list bug.

    This isn't something I created; it's a bug in the game!

    However, if they were obtainable offline, I think NFS Rivals—and all games with online components in general—would still have so much fun to offer!
