NFS Unbound SUCKS!

Need For Speed Unbound was an abysmal disappointment.... the sad thing is it didn't have to be.

EA should know that you introduce just enough new things but retain some of the existing to not lose your audience. Some bright spark executive has made this game unrecognisable, in fact the only good thing about this title is that its called NFS and not Need For Speed to help differentiate and separate this abomination from the much loved Need For Speed racing game series.

Its evident that EA is out of touch with what players want from them! Besides being marketed at teenagers which it shouldn't be as this title has a wide age group of players, also it's nearly impossible to get 1st place in a race.

Whose idea was it to brand it NFS? It's Need For Speed! I bought this game as a fan of the series plus I wanted mod the Mercedes W140 which sadly I didn't get a chance to do, as this game to me was unplayable and unenjoyable so after playing it a handful of times, I made the choice to trade it in. 

I have never come across this kind of situation with any of the other Need For Speed games, besides Payback which I didn't complete as the last few races were too hard.... I still enjoyed it but Unbound I hardly play it, I just got passed the stage where the Lamborghini Countache gets jacked.

Anyway I was really looking forward to this game but you guys ruined it and we ain't getting a new title for at least another year....

    After getting Nissan Skyline GT-R Premium Edition in Multiplayer PvP and doing some races in a meetup playlists multiple times, it's mid.

    You didn't proceed to complete the story after your Lambo Countach 1988 got stolen by Yaz' acquaintances? I managed to finish the insufferable 3 Qualifiers and the Grand.
    Anyway, the story was abysmal that made me play Multiplayer PvP often than the story one.

    The new Criterion Games or a new game dev (like NFS Shift made by Slightly Mad Studios) is on the line to make a good NFS or derivative one at this point.

    I expect some derivative NFS games will come out in the future that they feel apathetic in this decade. 

    I don't disagree with you, MF41SAL. 

    Too bad there's no NFS alternative games out there...


    P.S.
    I'm looking forward to other games that are not related to NFS. Like Resistor, Aero GPX or Exo Rally Championship.

    I don't think they're remastering/remaking most wanted. It was a rumor.

    I deleted this game a while ago. They're focus on multiplayer is a major turnoff. I beat the game, plated some online mode and was done. I'm not interested in downloading and playing this game again.

  • It won't be a remaster but a remake. Basically it's gonna be probably like other modern NFS games core gameplay and car selection related but everything else MW05
