Suggestions and Feedback from me and my friends

Dear NFS Unbound development team:

Hello, I'm a content creator on Bilibili; my main content is for NFS and other racing games. I want to provide you guys suggestions and feedback on behalf of some players, my friends and my fans:

More updates to Story mode:

- More track layout:

The game will have more updates, which is good news, but some still don't like to play Lakeshore Online. So, how about an updated track layout in both Lakeshore Online and Story Mode simultaneously? It can also add new life to a story mode with more things to do at the end-game stage.

- Night environment change:

In Story mode for Weeks 1 to 4, the environment changes for different weather every night, but when Story mode is turned into the end-game calendar, it will become only one night, so maybe we should have a switch like we have for Lakeshore Online or make a choose the weather option before you go out.

General Gameplay :

- Custom MP3 Player (PC Only) / Radio System

I have no problem with the selected music and soundtrack, but please add an MP3 player if you can do this for the players who don't like hip-hop music.

Furthermore, it would be neat to have a radio system like some other open world game, which would make the whole game more alive when you drive around the city.

- Better Photo Mode

The current Photo mode could use some work. It would be amazing to re it to NFS Heat's Photo Mode.

- 395km/h Speed Limit Remove

Since NFS Heat, the vehicle's top speed has been limited to 395KM/H, but there are two brands in the game, Bugatti and Koenigsegg, both of which can exceed this speed limit in real life. So, can we raise the speed limit or remove it as an upgrade option?

Customization :

- New Real World Rims/Bodykit, etc

Now, after five volume updates, we still don't have any new Rims based on an actual manufacturer, the same as the body kit. Let's say I love these crazy virtual artwork-style body kits, but in the real world, one always feels that cars may lack an element.

- Improve stance tuning

The current stance tuning system is not too bad, but we need an enhanced version of the Need for Speed™(2015) stance tuning system and make it more, like rake, tire profile, etc.

- NFS Legacy Bodykit

Since the Vol.7 theme is "Drift & Drag," I thought I could add some things that NFS had before, like Super Build (for body kit stuff only) in NFS Payback for the drag build and even the re-model body kit for older NFS title like the UG era. We hope to see these connecting in the future.

- Character customization:

Unbound's character style has a very bold move, but that's also a good thing. If we can have more options to customize character looks such as hair, eyes, etc.,

Online Gameplay:

- Increase Party and FreeDrive size:

Four people in a Party is too small and not enough, and the free-roaming of 16 people becomes even worse after half of the people get into the race, making Lakeshore look like a ghost town.

- Quick change PVP Playlist:

Now, when you don't want to continue in the current PVP Playlist, you can only enter another PVP Playlist by going back to the game's main menu and then entering Lakeshore Online. So, can we have an option to quickly change the PVP Playlist?

- Vehicle interaction at the garage:

We want to see it with other cars in the garage, similar to the kind that NFS Heat the garage.

Miscellaneous:

- Add Idle Camera, like what NFS 2015, NFS Payback, and NFS Heat had.

Now that the crash camera is back let's bring the Idle camera back with us. We need it.

- Add crash camera switch:

As the title says, can we disable the crash camera with a switch (not for the car crash itself)?

- Changing the controller bindings:

Also, just as the title refers, some people prefer to avoid bumper keys (aka. L1/R1 for DualSense, LB/RB for Xbox Controller) Shifts. We would also like to see an introduction of the option to allow players to change the controller bindings.

- Remove the Restart Limit or some QOL change for the people who want to make some record:

Racing track times have always been at the heart of racing games, but the restart limit is infuriating. A QoL change for these would be good, or even better, allowing the player to run the playlist alone.

These are the suggestions and feedback for the current game content. I hope some of the ideas will appear in this year's update. Thank you to the team for making this amazing game!

---------

Anyway, out of context:

Can we have an official NFS Channel on the Chinese video platform, such as Bilibili?

  • I agree with you but also I would say how difficult it is to get the cops off of you, they should make a change to let it be a little bit easier because no matter what I do after heat level 3 I cannot get them off of me, they just total my car. then I keep losing, have to restart until I quit the game because it makes the game no fun and it will at least make the game more fun to play

    @Superspeedsingh also cops are in every race. And I literally mean every race. Why not have them randomly in a race or not in a race. No the cops will always spawn during the race at some point and it's annoying.
  • Hello NFS Development Team, I was wondering if there anyway to make more wheels sims compatible with NFS unbound, Like the thurstmaster TX leather edition, and adding in clutch functions to that process? I feel like people like myself, with wheel sims want to able to use clutch and gear shifting,
