Re: To NFS NO LIMITS Developers - Stop Being so HARD & add new locations soon,

@Stylehot5 I don't understand your logic here at all.

FIrst you mention being in love with the game, then that it gets boring. And yet you are begging for unlimited fuel and tickets, so you can play more? Wow.

You mention it is a small game with very few locations, yet after only a month, I'd be surprised if you are in a half, even with an open wallet. In one sentence you beg for more value for your buck, and in another you regret they force you to pay?!

Just some more thoughts:

1) Tickets/fuel limitations: in a way it allows you to enjoy real life (or other games, if you are into it) while recharging. You can view it the other way round: while having full capacity (fuel, tickets and so on) you are losing opportunities to race, thus it creates some pressure during the morning, where to start 🙂 Or on busy hours throughout the day. Sometimes you are relieved once you spend your fuel and can move to other things. If you lift the limit completely, you both remove the tension (so some people would play even less) and allow other to sink their whole life here. And all the tournaments and other things will be meaningless, as it wont compare skills at all, only the time invested.

2) More locations - this is a double-edged sword as well. Of course it adds more variance, but on the other hand it prevents you from mastering a race, which in turns leads to more fails. Or to weaker (and more boring) opponents, if you are to maintain the rate of success. Is it a good way to go?

3) Pay to play - while some people tried to claim the opposite, NFS NL definitely is NOT a pay2play game, and I find it a good thing. There are players that already finished the campaign, reached the level cap and successfully finished all the special events (gaining every car possible) without paying a dime. I'd consider that a proof that playing without paying is possible. On the other hand, especially during many special events there emerges a couple of whiners, who dumps huge amount of gold (and dollars) and fails. Thus, some skills and knowledge of game mechanics does come handy, indeed (and see point 2 above).

The most famous reply I remember from this forum about value of invested money into the game is that you get longer pee breaks ;-) Which is good - anyone can play without paying if he invests more time (or at least more often) and plays well (thus not wasting fuel/tickets).

Happy racing.
