Stop trying to be Burnout
What is wrong with EA? No one wants thses physics, everyone has been asking for a NFS title that resembles the old underground and most wanted and in your attempt to do so you guys completely ignore t...

Exactly, I hate the Burnout style handling, please bring back the good old handling style from NFS Underground (1+2), NFS Most Wanted (original) and NFS Carbon!
all of you complaining about brake to drift, you do realize you can turn break to drift and drift stability assist off? and unlike NFS15 you can actually turn with brake to drift off according to all the people who played the game behind closed doors.
and on the topic of NFS "copying" Burnout, yeah some things are copied from burnout, but it's only the good things from burnout being brought over; ya know, it's not like Most Wanted 2012 where there were massive ramps that would launch you into outer space. really the only thing that screamed burnout to me in the gameplay trailer was the takedown camera, however, that takedown camera ONLY EXISTS IN MISSIONS and DOESNT EXIST IN RACES according to multiple sources and players who played behind closed doors. some people have a concern that there will be takedown events, but it has been confirmed that there are no Burnout style takedown missions. not only this but Ghost Games have removed the player crash camera (a Burnout feature that was in 2015) so now in PB when you crash there is NO CUTSCENE FOR YOUR CRASH.
speaking of plus sides let me list them down below.
- More Customization
- An Actual Story
- Improved Cop AI
- Improved Racer AI
- Day-Night Cycle
- The Return of Car Lots
- Mainly Focused Around Racing
- A More Open World
- Unlimited Garage Space
- Derelict Cars
- Switchable Characters With Presumably Different Skills
- Intense Action Missions
- Improved Physics
- Offline Mode
- More Environmental Destruction (presumably)
- Car Class System
- Tuning Now In The Open World
I could probably list more bullet points as to improvements the game has made, but I think you get the point I'm trying to convey. you all are just negative nancies looking for the bad parts that you assume are in the game and most of these things you all are complaining about have no substance. such as the argument that the handling is bad. everyone who has played the game says the handling is improved. now am I going to believe you someone who hasn't played the game, or am I going to believe the people who have actually played the game? i mean come on be serious. make better arguments.
Good info here. Its very annoying when people say Payback looks like Burnout. There are some aspects of it but that is called getting influences. The reason why Most Wanted 2012 is because it was made by the same developer. People will complain about anything.
- Criterion the creators of Burnout worked on a few NFS games bringing there signature physics style and trademark action crashes with them and since then NFS has played practically like those games,regardless of whether you feel that it doesn't look like Burnout it's using what makes Burnout Burnout and that's enough of a reason to make the statement that the driving is almost exactly like Burnout.
@Sparco_MLR action crashes weren't invented or trademarked by burnout, many games including previous games in the series had the action crash cams. NFS Undercover comes to mind, with its takedown events (which by the way came from burnout) just like undercover, payback only has the takedown camera in missions, so when you are racing that takedown camera won't exist, so it won't distract you.
i think its stupid to say a game is a burnout copy paste because there is break to drift. you need to realize there are more to game physics than just the way your car turns. plus if its that big of an issue for you, YOU CAN TURN OFF BRAKE TO DRIFT AND DRIFT STABILITY ASSIST OFF so you don't have to deal with that "burnout" handling. you see since 2015 ghost has been trying to please both crowds, the vets who were here since anything before undercover and the newcomers who came here with Most Wanted 2012 and they are trying to please both by having 2 different styles of physics it's up to you whether or not you drive with the burnout physics those physics are not forced upon you.
- I'd love to see your sources for these so called "improved handling claims" because I've also heard people say that the handling has just been slightly tweaked and overall the cars handle the same. Just looking at how the car moves outside of drifting looks bad.
Hey if when the game comes out and they really did change it for the better then that's great but I'm looking at non youtuber opinions,gameplay and their track record of the last 5 games and their physics have all been trash and extremely arcadey and it wasn't like that until Criterion came along and even though they're gone now what makes Burnout unique is now in NFS and that's a problem.@Sparco_MLR the people who played at the open event have said the physics are better (people who are not youtubers mind you) other than the EA Play event the only people who have played the game to know whether the physics are good or bad are the youtubers. *GASP* I know SHOCKER! please dude get better arguments. everyone who has played it says the physics are better.
and you want sources here you go. watch away.
there's more out there, but im not about to dig through hours of NFS video on hundreds of channels just to prove a point. i think the fact that a Forza fanboy saying the handling is better than 2015 is proof that the handling is better.
- I dont take anything from Black Pantha or AR12 seriously they are both pretty terrible youtubers who really don't know much or even care about the franchise, they're more so just happy to be able to play and get views,on top of that EA is known to pay youtubers to say positive things about their games,like I've said before there are other post from Twitter and iG that say differently. As for the turn off brake drift option (if this is actually a option) we still have no idea how the cars will handle with that off,looking back at 2015 NFS the cars still handled very poorly with a "grip" setup.
As for takedowns when talking about trademark it was more so to imply that Burnout is very much known for that,if you ask anyone what is Burnout known for they will without a doubt name their action crash cams and how their cars drive because that's what made that game fun and unique whether other games have done it before or not they have done it that best,you claim it's been confirmed that you can turn these features off and the crash cam is only used in mission but seeing as this hasn't been revealed in gameplay I will reserve my opinion on that until I see it.I would much rather be negative about a game that has been trash for years to make sure I'm not let down again than to be overly positive and end up let down again its as simple as that, sales for nfs games have been going down ever since Pro Street there is clearly a problem that they refuse to listen to,I really do hope that they fixed their issues but my money is on that they haven't.
