Multiplayer Free-Roam
I am posting this as both a request to Ghost Games, and a warning to the potential buyers of NFS Payback. Multiplayer free roam is a core element of what made NFS 2015 fun, and what people enjoyed...
Forum Discussion
There is online freeroam, but in lobby mode, very short, just multiplayer mode is more long.
That is a loading screen and nothing more. It is not a proper multiplayer free roam, and should stop being claimed as one. You cannot host car meets, you cannot run into and meet new people, and if the host starts the race at any moment, you get thrown into a race whether you wanted to or not, as you may have been cruising around with others.
Payback is built on the same game engine as NFS 2015, removing multiplayer free roam took more effort than it would've if it was kept in the game. So there is NO excuse for it not being in the game, and the fact that the speedlist loading screen puts players into the world together for a brief moment, means there is NO reason it can't be the same drop in-drop out multiplayer free roam like in NFS 2015.
All that, is if you ignore the fact that it was a promised feature, that was only very recently removed from their official post, most likely after the majority of preorders had already come in.
Everyone should refund and boycott Payback UNLESS Ghost games addresses and fixes this. It's not difficult to patch back in, and they know it. Let's see if they listen to community feedback, like they claim.
- Stop trying to boycott Payback.
- U trying to get a job on EA bro? Always comenting extra positive things
- No, I gave my constructive criticism. You think developers listen to empty threats? Saying you're going to boycott a game does not make a developer add or take away things. How about giving constructive criticism a shot instead of threatening a boycott.
- Did you ever get a reply from EA SPORTS or GHOST GAMES about nfs payback multiplayer freeroam?
- They're Silent on free roam.
I'll pick the game up again if they add it but from what i've seen (roughly 30 threads from various sites) nobody knows.
So it's probably a sign thay it may be in developpment but what's to say we won't pay for it.
As it is they've added online drift speedlists (dec19th) but no drag. So the game remains incomplete even after three updates
The true release date should have been 2018 because people are gonna start dropping the game if they haven't already @ThomasTL90 Not here. Only reddit and f8rge is responding to almost n everything.
- Yupp done buying anything EA or Ghost Games related. Ignoring your fan base for 2 months now is just absurd. Going back to forza horizon 3 where online free roam is POSSIBLE.
