Need For Speed Payback: Play as the Cop

Yeah that would be cool. It would be pretty fun running racers off the road with the PIT mechanic.

Your post:

We all know for those people who played or heard of Need For Speed Rivals, you can play as a racer or a cop. This is the only game in the whole Need For Speed series that has a mode where you can play as a cop. But what if you can play as a cop roaming the streets of Fortune Valley trying to hunt down racers. You can do your career. Basically close to the cop mode in Need For Speed Rivals. Will the developers release an update?

 If you are the developer/s of NFS Payback, please let me know.

 For those players who play this game, do you want the cop mode added?

My Reply:

Dude, you know NFS has a long history of games, and we were able to play as the cop in other versions from the past.

NFS High Stakes comes to mind and Hot Pursuit 3, &  Porche Unleashed and so many others.

Go check them out at your local game store and play them.

You're right about that. I do this all the time online in AllDrive freeroam servers, it's great! Me and my friends often play as cops, to deliver player-driven "freeroam cops" which is very interesting in my opinion, as a player controlled police car can't have rubberbanding like an AI, yet can make up for it by using shortcuts and driving skill. We can't use spike strips or call in air support, but even with just the Crown Vic and some custom police cars we still have a great time, all you need is a Crown Victoria or some cop vanity items and then you're set. With some backup units in the form of your friends and other random cop cars in the server, you can request roadblocks, use advanced pursuit techniques, and have an awesome time playing as the FVPD, to some extent. For these reasons, I tried to convince the devs to add the FVPD Charger (and others, maybe as abandoned car?) on the same basis as the CVPI, but that clearly didn't work. Hope that your question has been answered. Essentially, we can play as a cop.

I think that's fabulous you found a way to be creative in the game and invite your friends.

Enjoy your day!:eahigh_file:

Guys i think that what i want is all u guys want, I just want to bring back old police system as rockport police civic cruiser undercover civic cruiser all that staff where we can join in that team i want to feel that side of game disable weapons and that *, we can be only part of unit who chase the racer with others units backup same thing as most wanted not crash the racer, surrend him and get busted create pursuit brakers and theese staff i really want to play on that way i really wish ea read this comment and make that kind of game. 

SAME ROCKPORT POLICE CARS

SAME ROCKPORT POLICE SYSTEMS

SAME ROCKPORT POLICE TACTICS 

CAN JOIN THE TEAM. 

THAT WHAT PLAYERS NEED

@racermkd

Exactly! You hit the nail on the head, definitely my dream. Wouldn't have to deal with the damage bar either... I love Most Wanted 2005.

It's exactly what I do on NFS Payback, and it really helps to build a community with other players! That's why I came up with the concept of player-powered freeroam cops, which embodies exactly what you've described.

In an ideal NFS, I'd love it if your ideas could be realised. A return to Rockport that genuinely focuses on the Cop vs Racer theme, with the blacklist coming back, better visuals, and even more cars to enjoy. 

I really want to join in rockport departmant and feel how is good that systm bro, collecting bounties by racers catch them exactlly the same system, for example we take cross place in the department and try catch the most wanted racer in the game with other units just like cross was, if u remember how pursuit goes in 2005 that i like to see of my perspective bro as a cop, dont need real police cars like crown vic, enough is the old cars civic cruisers federal...
