Need For Speed Heat Gameplay!
The NFS media team promised some gameplay on Monday and they delivered! We can clearly see some top tier hyper and supercars in this trailer such as the McLaren P1, Lamborghini Huracan, Porsche 918 ...

Nice job on noticing the "Health bar" on the HUD, because there's an distinct lack of observation and speculation of this mechanic. I can definitely see how this could go wrong, and am worrying about the real issue of cops just "killing" you outright or being overly reckless just like Payback. Very impressed with your nice summary, the only things I could add is Lieutenant Mercer with his Camaro Z28 (probably a special case though) and that nitrous is slightly different across times of day.
I do have some other major worries, such as the cop cars, Rhino and helicopter being recycled assets (from as far back as Rivals/2015) as well as the fact that spike strips will damage the car. Regera could easily break car balance again. Another thing is that the health system must be very carefully thought about for an online mode. It will be very frustrating if people end up wrecking each other, accidentally or deliberately...
But nonetheless, great observations!
First of all thank you for the nice words! Really appreciate that 🙂
It seems like the cops are a lot more careful and actually preform the box maneuver and try to pit you, So just from the trailer it seems like they are less reckless than Payback.
Many props are usually recycled from old games to save dev time and cost, nothing much to worry about as they will probably handle differently but the look will remain the same, I would imagine hypercars would have a lower health bar than lets say lower tier cars just to balance the game out, If the wreck system is anything like Hot Pursuit i think everything will be okay.
Thanks once more :D
