💬 Volume 7 The League - Looking for feedback! 💬

Question

👇👇👇 FEEDBACK WANTED 👇👇👇

Introduced in Vol. 7, The League revitalizes the competitive spirit of NFS Underground, offering a richer single player experience in Free Roam, letting you challenge Rival Racers in head-to-head battles throughout the volume to win their unique rides.

This feature also introduced a community challenge, requiring collective effort to unlock the final boss and claim a new custom&nbsp;&nbsp;

With rivals showing up regularly and with new leagues on the way, this is where strategy, skill, and community converge, pushing players to earn their place among street racing legends &nbsp;

As we mentioned in our Y2 Roadmap blog, we're looking for your feedback to inform the future of #NeedForSpeed. Now that many of you have had a chance to play it and unlocked the Racer X custom, we want to know what you think.

1 🟢 What do you think of the League so far?
2 🟢 What benefit did it bring to the game for you?
3 🟢 Did it help solve some of the issue of mostly multiplayer-focused updates so far?
4 🟢 Are you a Story Mode player who decided to try out Free Roam for this?
5 🟢 Was it worth it for the Rival Racer customs?
6 🟢 Are you looking forward to the League returning in Vol.8?
7 🟢 How would you like to see us expand or tweak this feature moving forward?

1 🟢 What do you think of the League so far?

The Underground League that's supposedly inspired by the URL (Underground Racing League) from NFS Underground 2 felt more like the Blacklist 15 from NFS Most Wanted 2005 to me.

Despite that, I do like the League system in NFS Unbound.

My biggest problem with the League right now is the Underground League is only available for a limited-time (only available during Volume 7), which brings FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). If someone were to start playing NFS Unbound in Volume 8 or later volumes, they missed out on the Volume 7 League cars and have no way to obtain them.

I prefer the Underground League (and any other subsequent Leagues) to be available permanently in the game and not be limited-time things.
I'm sick and tired of so many games having FOMO into them.

2 🟢 What benefit did it bring to the game for you?

The Underground League gave me something to do in NFS Unbound and rewarded me certain rival racers' cars from defeating them.

No, because single-player Story mode continues to be neglected.

4 🟢 Are you a Story Mode player who decided to try out Free Roam for this?

I was already playing the Multiplayer Lakeshore Online after completing the single-player Story mode from way back in December 2022.
But this still doesn't mean that I don't want to play the single-player Story mode. I want to play it, but there's nothing for me to do in it right now.

5 🟢 Was it worth it for the Rival Racer customs?

Yea, I do think the Underground League was worth it for the Rival racer cars. I always wanted to drive opponents' cars from the single-player Story mode somehow, such as Justicia's Nissan 350Z.

6 🟢 Are you looking forward to the League returning in Vol.8?

Contrary to what everyone else says (from what I seen) and to what my positive comments about the League system, I am not looking forward to the League returning in Volume 8 unless the League system has no time limit to complete (basically no FOMO).

I already said I am sick and tired of so many games having FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) into them.

Have the League system have no time limit to complete to remove any FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) elements.

From what I seen, nobody else is pointing this out and it seems I'm the minority of disliking the League having a time limit to complete.

@EA_IlliumSo, my statement on the questions.1 🟢 What do you think of the league so far?OK, I think the league is OK, but it was much too easy to complete the tasks, it could be more difficult.2 🟢 What benefit did it bring to the game for you?You could complete additional tasks for which we received cars as a reward.3 🟢 Did it help solve some of the issue of mostly multiplayer-focused updates so farWell, advantage. You can now race aloneDisadvantage: Before the update, you only drove 3-4 races per hour, in which several gamers took part, now you drive 5-6 races, but alone, everyone drives their own race.4 🟢 Are you a Story Mode player who decided to try out Free Roam for this?No, when the story is finished, I only drive multiplayer mode.5 🟢 Was it worth it for the Rival Racer customs?yes6 🟢 Are you looking forward to the League returning in Vol.8?Yes, please make it a little more difficult.7 🟢 How would you like to see us expand or tweak this feature moving forward?Positive, extensions are always good

Gave me something to work toward.

No.

So far.
