I've played all NFS entry's on all Playstation consoles.. and that's aside (NFS World Tour, NFS Live & NFS Nitro) every entry the series ever had. 

I really like(d) the NFS series, but to me quality was better before they went "Open World"... with NFS HP II (on PS2) as climax of the series (in my opinion).. I also liked Underground 1 more then 2..

Wouldn't it be nice for the series to relaunch it self with spectaculair A->B tracks + shortcuts as it was before... it would allow more variation and the possibility to add som cool breathtaking effects.. (crashing helicopters, tree"s falling down, Rocks tumbling down)... 

It woud feel more "'new" to all gamers then another open world with a coastel and mountain area..

@Seijouro Open world is a mainstream of current games.From Forza Horizon to Cyberpunk 2077,it's hard to lure gamers to driving around a fixed track that's not about real track's pro racing(Assetto Corsa or GT for example)Also ever since Horizon became a big name after FH3 went to PC platform too,open world became more popular than ever.Even NFS itself is copying what Burnout Paradise and Forza Horizone did in the past.EA like I've said is a money-focused company.If majority of gamers like open-world as they are now,NFS is open-world for more sales and profits.If closed-course is mainstream in following years,open world will be dropped again.
