MEGATHREAD - Unbound Community Feedback & Wishlist

Since the release of Unbound, a small group has been recording feedback from the community.

After the recent patch, the group has seen the community lose faith in EA as we repeat through title release cycles for NFS.

The attached document goes through everything we have recorded.

Please feel free to comment anything we have missed.

I will be responding to messages.

    I'm not feeling inclined to purchase due to the lack of information. I recently upgraded to the Palace Edition and I'm pleased with the abundance of colorful and humorous decals available for car customization. The driving effects are also impressive, and there's a good variety in clothing options.

    However, there's very little information about clothing and DLC on the sales site. I'd like to know the details of available cars, customization options, clothing, and decals. It seems there isn't much enthusiasm for selling. If I had known this content earlier, I might have made the purchase sooner. And this isn't something that requires programmers. I hope they can make this happen soon.

  • I've posted about this once before, but I think it may be time to consider rebalancing certain vehicles. An issue I've noticed since the initial release of the game was that a lot of vehicles, primarily muscle cars and 90's era tuners seem to suffer at most, if not all tiers they're available in. One particular case I've noticed is the Hellcat Charger, a new addition to the NFS franchise's vehicle roster; Only able to be upgraded to S - S+, the vehicle suffers against everything its put up against, rendering it effectively useless, and a huge waste of time.
    Keep in mind this is not the ONLY vehicle subjected to this, as I'm sure a number of people will state as this is posted.

  • - Please fix texture load/render issue for HDD user. Sometimes the visuals, especially like road, buildings, trees, liveries has slower texture load on HDD. I know it's slower but it just ruining the entire gameplay.
    - Make party member up to 8 or higher instead of 4 in online mode.
    - Able to invite someone to the party without having to add friend first.
    - Add "Create private session" feature in online mode, where a whole server/lobby is booked for personal. The purpose is when someone is planning to do some massive play along with their friends without bothering about server's random population. There will be 2 invitation mechanics/methods, through invitation code (private session maker will have the code once they made it, and anyone else can join the private session maker's lobby as long as they have the code), and the other one is just through regular invitation. As we know we already have "Search for players" feature, then there will be "Search for private session" to make ppl easier to find someone's session. For much better online experience ofc.

    @Ron7RoadworrierWhile I am inclined to agree with the statement that Burnout's legacy should be preserved better, let's not let this take away from what we have in Need For Speed. I feel like the level of added chaos brings a much needed sense of the fact that racing is indeed dangerous, as depicted across multiple installments of the franchise once before.

  • @princenaim 

    I do not necessarily seek the complete removal of crash representations. The legacy of Burnout is very beautiful and captivating, so I hope it is used effectively without being excessive.

    To the destruction artists and the superior who approves such decisions: From now on, instead of impulsively destroying our beloved cars, I would like you to pursue destruction as an expression of "scrap and build" to make the world a better place through our cars. Let's bring a breath of fresh air to the stagnant world.

    Specifically, expressions that bring dynamic changes to the air and the environment would be fantastic. Examples like the 'Battlefield' series or 'Ghost of Tsushima' are excellent references.

    Literally, I continue to be impressed by your work. Thank you for creating something wonderful.

    I think the developers off unbound should bring back cars from older nfs games. In my opinion nfs pro street and shift2 had the best line up.

    I hope they could bring back the Ford Mustang New Edge again. And cars like Honda integra type-s

    Toyota celica ts230

    Cobalt ss

    Chrysler 300c hemi

    Nissan 300zx z31 turbo (i could sell my kidneys for that one)

    Maybe a monte carlo ss 2002?

    And many other ones that has not been heard of in a long time.

    Maybe could do a pro street dlc car pack?

    I hope the developers sees this sometime

  • I really like nfs unbound, i playing it now more then 140h, i really like online but i have collect all cars i want and etc. Playlists is nice and online system is perfect btw BUT i also playing games bcz of ranked system, so i can challenge my self with other like me 'progamers' and playing game everyday to became best. 
    Idk how much u want to change the game and keep it update or want u to just giveup soon. Idk do u want this game to be a big SOLO game, in solo game i mean u dont do anything else but keep this game update and give it new feachers like battlepass (with collectible cars and look feachers like stickers on cars or whole like 'legends edition' look)
    There so many things u can do, but my english is not perfect as u can see already i cant discribe it all like that. Me thinking u know that ur game is can be a greatest and it not over, this game is so early acces btw, have nothing special like the story mod is not 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt' and ur online is missing so many things that it suppost to be so gamers can playing this game for so long time everyday without me telling u but i share smthin' of i thinking lately.
    Maybe add new modes like ranked system and tounaments like in week or mounts thats if u win or get best scores that give u something like cars and vision things IDK i can tell u so much that i would love to see in ur game but there no reason to me saying this and wasting my time to do it if you dont what this game to be a BIG game. I wannt to say like forza but forza is * to my opinion, i buy it and playing like 10 hours and delete it. 0 instesing to play, But Ur game i love. I have been playing all nfs before and this one is best .Again for my opinion. I really want to tell more what i think should be of would be nice in ur game but idk if u even interest in it. sorry for my eng, have a great day and gl in everything u do.
