1. You can't join ranked matches with friends
2. The races are way too short.
3. Unless you use the koenisegg you don't have much chance of winming. Its got boring very quickly.
I don't tend to play much single player.... i'm far more interested in.playing online with friends against other groups of friends ie team v team events. NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 had multi player nailed. It was fantastic. I played it for 2 years and still have people on my friends list playing it now.
NFS Payback is a missed opportunity in respect of multi player

I enjoyed single player. It was abit grindy sometimes where I had to repeat a race like 20 times to actually win ( Was one or two rally races I found pretty hard), and my car level was just about correct. And yes I played only on hard, even though thoughts did come after repeating a race alot of changing to medium, but I managed to hanlde that pressure and didnt change to medium lol I wanted to get the full tough experience. The fact that I had to do it 20 times doesnt neccesarily mean I didnt like it, yes I got fairly mad at times, but in the long run I am quite happy about the face that it was tough. Im upset that there are only like 5-6 story type missions, where in between them there are the same races, but that isnt necessarily bad either tbh, but they could have made it longer. I play on high settings and I didn ejoy the graphics, they are medium yes but they arent bad either, Id say they are good enough for 2017. The cars, the tuning the design I really enjoyed.. and I really hope they will add more cars soon. And they lost some rating from me for adding stupid card system for tuning your car, it was alot better even in NFS 2015.
So either way il give the single player mode a 7/10 rating.
The multiplayer mode, oh my god, I generally never thought that Need for Speed multiplayer racing could be so horrible, the lags when somebody is right behind you, and flips you out off the road, even though on your screen he didnt even touch you, the ridiculous balancing system, and the fact that there are only two types of races and no FREE ROAM.
Regarding the free roam topic, first of all on the official site there was information, before release, that you will be able to free roam with your friends. Then they just edited it out right before release... Like what does that make them? Is that not fraud? If thats not fraud I dont what else is to be honest. Because to be honest that was one of my main reasons of purchasing the game, and thank god that I didnt buy the deluxe version.
" Multiplayer
Hit the streets and race to win. Take on challengers from all around the world as you compete to be the best.
Compete in Speedlists, which are free events against friends, or challenge other players in Free Roam. There are two types of Speedlists:
- Casual: Casual Speedlists are 5-event tournaments. The best player is crowned at the end.
- Ranked: Ranked Speedlists track the performance of each player on a competitive ranking system."
My rating for the need for speed multiplayer experience is 2/10. and 2 for the fact that it even exists....
My overall rating for this game will be 4/10
PS I changed my rating from 5 to 4 because of the terrible customer support.
