Absolutely, and you make a great point! Looks as if NFS is going to be stuck in a weird limbo for the best part of a year or so now, so updates (whether major additions or minor patches) are definitely the way forward.
Initially, I was wary of proposing suggestions, especially since this is a "remaster" rather than a "remake" etc which would be the go-to response to anyone asking for virtually anything. However, with the recent addition of the wrap editor, I feel that there's scope for more updates or features not present in the original.
Ultimately, I wanted to support this topic and outline a few of my suggestions; should be enough to keep the game alive, but without compromising the values or tradition of the original game:
I know that's a lot to read, but I'm hoping some of them are at least relatively realistic. Thanks for creating the topic! Hope we hear more from NFS soon, instead of complete radio silence...
Whilst ambitious, the inclusion of the wrap editor shows us that the folks at Stellar Entertainment are willing to push the boundaries, even if they more or less just imported the wrap system from Heat... Therefore, it's not entirely out of the question, surely?
Also, the SCPD have multiple liveries/colour schemes. Don't worry, I'm not saying people should be able to create obscene cop cars or begging for cameo police schemes (though that'd be awesome if you could have Rockport, Palmont, TCB, Federal from TR, Fairhaven, Redview County, Ventura Bay, Fortune Valley, Palm City/Eden Shores etc) I'm just suggesting that players could pick from a selection of pre-made wraps, much like their racer counterparts.
As I detailed, this would likely involve remapping some of the SCPD wraps onto other cars, but again Stellar have already demonstrated their ability to do this. To the best of my knowledge, this would include:
That's pretty much all of them from what I can remember... No need to re-map every single one necessarily, seeing as racers only have four pre-made wrap slots, but as you can see there's clearly ample choice regardless.
In simple terms, cops would get to choose from a selection of four pre-made police schemes as I've listed, just like racers can do. Not too unreasonable, right? Hope you can come round to my way of thinking, but if not, don't worry!
I hate to be a pooper but its possible tht the wrap editor may be the last and final update for HPR most likely. Which sucks bc theres many things tht needed to be fix (traffic spawn online is still terrible bruh).
I actually like a few of these ideas (preset cop liveries would be awesome). But knowing Stellar and the fact they only mentioned wrap editor, I doubt they gonna do anything else to this game. Maybe a patch fix and a very very VERY slim chance of bringing back the SLRs but other than tht its done with developement.
