Profanity
There needs to be an option to shut off the profanity in the game. My son is 11 and this game is definitely geared more towards kids, so give the option to shut PROFANITY off.

Ngl the fact NFS is fence sitting when it comes with who they cater to got old in 2015... You can't expect the kids who grew up playing the legacy titles to come back in adulthood and entertain the dialogue, the cutscenes, and the overall plot when you've got characters behaving like a pixar character.. "Oh no! They stole all my car, all the cars in our garage, and trashed the garage?! Awe gosh darnit!"
...
The graffiti effects are ok...but its quite obvious EA and Criterion are trying to cater towards kids.. but then they go ahead and add A$AP Rocky in the game, basing their ENTIRE games persona around him, his custom car, and his Testing album.. Only to go full 180 once the game released because he stands on business and EA suddenly does not want to associate with someone who literally grew up on the streets.. You make a game about being a felon, yet the characters behave like children, yet they still say s***, yet you include music that talks about/promotes street life/gang life, yet you design the characters and effects to appeal to children, yet you centered the marketing campaign around A$AP Rocky, yet you don't commit to the maturity of the type of game you want to be, yet I can downright murder police officers with my vehicle and watch them violently crash (and do the same to civilians), yet you half-**bleep** attempt at catering to legacy players by downright referencing the same 3 legacy titles that made EA the most money yet refuse to remake them or actually make a game that commits to the maturity of those legacy titles, sure they were cringe too, but at least the stories weren't as spicy as mayonnaise...
I'm having the same problem when I'm trying to add my name on the plates of my cars I didn't have this problem three days ago, it doesn't make any sense at all why do they not let us give our cars unique names?
i cant write "420" to my cars windows via decals :d they make me use two decals for 4 n 20
but when check track names we see subliminal like, get high tonight, bring da ruckus etc.
i think some of the workers are in da mood
I understand the sentiment. Regardless of the writing style, the original post's intent is crucial. Having a passion for cars and wanting to share that culture is a desire shared by many people.
If there are many requests like this, the age restrictions in the next installment are likely to be relaxed. It's a simple matter of expression.
In fact, the essence of this game is quite a social issue. It's about "rebelling against authority." Can we really do such a thing? That's why I like Unbound.
well then its esrb fault for making it a T for teen game when they wrote "Language, Mild Suggestive Themes, Mild Violence" next to that rating. EA and all the companies dont do the rating themselves . Its ESRB that does the age rating for games. So complaining on the games forum wont do much. maybe contact ESRB and voice your concerns for the age rating they gave to a game that has illegal street racing and swearing
It's rated T for Teen though, which is 13 yrs old and older, so unless you fancy 13 yr olds cussing like a sailor, then the OP is completely justified with their concerns. I certainly have no interest in hearing cuss words in T-forTeen games, and I'm 42 yrs old and do cuss from time to time around friends. A Mature rated game, sure don't care, but a game supposedly rated safe for 13 yrs olds, no.
This is kinda an odd thing to complain about... the audience that have stood since the 2000's have grown up, so it would only be natural for the Need for Speed series to grow up as well.
Don't get me started on the profanity filter for the license plates. Back in Heat I made a pretty nice looking BMW M3 E46 in a red color and yellow lights, wanted to put "Akuma" as a license plate and the filter kicked in, despite 悪魔 (Akuma) literally translating to "devil" or a "demon", which I don't think should be considered a profanity. In Unbound, I tried to put Rotary Power onto my RX-8s plate in a shorter form "rotopwr" and the filter kicked in. I'm flabbergasted by how dumb it actually is. Out of curiosity I asked a friend to put both words in question into Forza Horizon 5 and both got applied on the license plate there just fine. So as far as I'm aware, EA has it a bit backwards in this regard.
Exactly lol...
This game literally has a song talking about a dude having b*tches, h*es... However you wanna call them...
And you are asking for a profanity filter for your kid ? Buy him Forza instead since its all sunshine and bunnies there.
Like the user above mentioned, did you even check the age rating ?
I am disappointed to know that the profanity detector even easily finds my native Serbian curse words...
