Please add Private Lobbies and P2P Speedlists - Request

Hey NFS Community, a Ghost Games developer said that there won't be Private Lobbies and P2P Speedlists in NFS Heat, at least at launch. You can watch the full interview by clicking on this link:  ...

@Michael_Rush @BLVD69 @Michael_Rush @BrahmaBull915 

I am glad that you guys share the same view on this subject. It is indeed incredible that we have to specifically request this feature, which shouldn't be called a feature anyway. It should be standard in every game already. 

For instance, I still play NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 mainly because of private lobbies, since it makes lots of fun. That game is 9 years old. 

I want to have that long time motivation for Heat as well. It just shows how people can be kept satisfied after everything has been achieved in-game. What happened to The Crew 2 is a warning as well. 

@EA_Barry @EA_Andy @EA_Ataashi can you guys confirm to forward or that you have already forwarded this needed request to the Ghost Games developer? Ben Walke has already been tagged on this. I already tweeted him on Twitter but sadly no reply. 

Thank you in advance guys. 

Regards

As you've already pointed out - developers are aware of the feedback around this.

We wouldn't have any further information to share about that at the moment.

    Yeah, just don’t forget leaderboards should be added to this request. Any racing game has PVP and time trial as ‘endgame’. Nfs Heat should be no different.

    About Speedlists, there one aspect I wanted to talk about: don’t mix race categories like you did on Payback. Drifters and racers, for example, usually have different interests and it’s really annoying having to race a category you don’t want to.

      NFS Heat NEEDs Custom Public Lobbies!!  This means any player can create a lobby, label it, and all players all around the world can join (no invite required).  The host can set all the criteria for the lobby such as race course, cars allowed, car level allowed.

        @babaluk 

        Yes I fully support your idea of Custom Public Lobbies! 

        Let's hope Ghost Studios picks up the idea and updates the game like you addressed here. 

        Have a great day brother 😎
