@EA_David Really?A Livery/Wrap editor in HOT PURSUIT?Back in 1999 when NFS first got custom with High Stakes it mocked custom cars in the intro with that Totaled Civic.Yet here in 2021,22 years later dev team bringing cosmetic custom to Hot Pursuit-the sub-series inline with 90s original games.You already have new games like Heat/2015/The Run with cosmetic custom feature to lure most of[Car Culture] players.Why RUINING HOT PURSUIT with a pointless but popular now feature that most of fanbase for HP don't ask.HP is about high end cars racing each other in STOCK FORM with cops in HOT PURSUIT.Not some punks with fancy pointless livery hatchback.If EA wants 90s era fans' money then do it true to the original when HD an old title or just give it up totally.This is turning HP2010 into what it mocked in the first place.Also confirming future NFS won't see a pure 90s style game ever again.Very bad move bring a very pathetic future of the legendary series.RIP NFS,you will be missed.

@GK3512Who cares?, the world does not revolve around you. People can get fun of this because is new for this game but your mad asf because is "ruining" it? Cmon your better than this..

@TBP71_S15 Both SLR 199 are dropped for duel licenses problem.Rivals was the last NFS to have SLR 199 because it was used in the 2014 film then got added as part of film car pack.

I don't think the livery editor is ruining the game, necessarily, but I otherwise mostly agree.This is the first NFS title I've purchased in 10 years. The last title I bought? Hot Pursuit 2010HP2010 and this remaster are the last gasp of what made the NFS series great in the first place, IMO; UG1 and 2 threw the series off the rails and it's never recovered, instead opting to be the Fast and Furious of the racing game genre.I just want exotic cars, exotic locations, cops, and proper wheel support. The first 6 games were a fantastic distillation of the arcade racer genre; no stories, no characters, just open roads and putting the pedal to the metal.And bring back Rom Di Prisco!

Hi, @EA_David.Thanks for the amazing update! It was a super pleasant surprise to see 4K60 support added.One issue with the Xbox version did get surfaced lately by the press, though.Digital Foundry noticed that there is a performance issue in one area of the game where the frame rate dives hard for unclear reasons. This apparently occurs on the PC version as well. This is discussed in DF’s article and their video, which has been getting a lot of attention today on the internet:https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2021-need-for-speed-remastered-ps5-xbox-series-xCould EA please patch this issue? Then it would be an absolutely perfect game!Thanks so much!!

NFS™ Hot Pursuit Remastered Update delivers new wrap editor on February 25

You might have already shown Seacrest County what you’re capable of in terms of pure speed and skills behind the wheel. But are you ready to do it in style? We sure hope so – because the update arriving to Need for Speed™ Hot Pursuit Remastered on February 25 includes the new wrap editor.

And if you’re on PlayStation®5 and Xbox Series X we’ve got some additional slick-looking news for you: downloading this update will improve your resolution and performance to 4K/60FPS. PlayStation®4 Pro and Xbox One X players will also see a boost in visual fidelity with 4K/uncapped 50+ FPS.

The wrap editor is a brand new feature for NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered, one which wasn’t included in the original game. It allows players to create elaborate designs and custom liveries for any of their cars. For those of you who have used the wrap editor in NFS Heat, this will be a familiar experience.

Next to the color picker, you’ll see two more symbols:

One for the wrap editor
One for pre-made wraps.

The option to apply pre-made wraps means that you can outfit your rides with fresh, custom looks even if you’re not into making your own.

Here are some details regarding the wrap editor’s functionality:

Player-made wraps are personal only – they cannot be shared between players
Customized wraps can be seen in online races, including in cross-play
The decal limit for each wrap is 300 decals or 100 MB, whichever is reached first
Functionality to report inappropriate wraps has been implemented at the end screen of a multiplayer race.

Some additional bug fixing and tweaking have gone into this update as well – which you can read all about in our dedicated post from the community team.

We hope that you will enjoy the new update – we can’t wait to see your creations speeding down the roads of Seacrest County starting February 25!

Hi! I just wanted to tell that the E7 isn't coming back because the company who made the futuristic looking police car has gotten bankrupt in some years now. And I'm sorry to say this but it doesn't look like the Stirling Moss is coming back either to Hot Pursuit anytime soon unfortunately.

New rewards like cars/weapons aren't possible since this is a Remaster set to replicate original Criterion HP from 2010(E7/SLR 199 are dropped for licenses problem and their return may remain impossible).New events are also unlikely to happen since both cars and events from 4 main DLC are included from day 1 in this remaster.However Bounty is now unlocked so players can go for bounty over 2 million cap in the original HP2010.Sadly other than more useless bounty there's nothing for players to earn after they unlock everything and got rank 20 Most Wanted/Ultimate Enforcer name.

This update did bring in a wrap editor, which was something that wasn't in the original game.

So it is possible to have new stuff like events, tracks, and rewards added to the Remaster that wasn't in the original game. (Although I am not holding my breath for new events, tracks, and rewards though. It's just something I wish to see.)

@TheRealJony TBH I never think HP needs a wrap editor.However back in Paradise HD Stellar didn't add any modes or cars not in the original game.Cosmetic Custom is for games like UG/MW or Ghost NFS for their focus on street racing with daily cars in busy city.HP on the other hand is like Test Drive from 1980s-Top Cars+Natural Scenery+Police Pursuit.So HP doesn't need Custom from the very beginning.Even EA Canada knows to drop HP name when they added custom into NFS1999(High Stakes)

This is the first NFS title I've purchased in 10 years. The last title I bought? Hot Pursuit 2010

@Judge-Knite Ironically before UG1 launched the original dev EA Canada(DSI) mocked tuned cars in the HS1999 intro.Sadly now EA is doing the exact opposite to add tuning and chav into HP style games(This update and Rivals in general are good example of this)Also since the disrespectful NFS2015 this second identity became the original,which means games like HP2010 and TNFS-HP2 won't return as a brand new entry unless NFS is on the edge of oblivion.NFS is chasing mid 2000s success but failed badly.The blind chase of past success led to such statement-cars and custom are the beating heart of NFS,without either NFS wont survive to this day as what it is now.With Ghost kinda returns for future NFS,HP2010 HD may become the last Cannonball style NFS we will ever get.
