Welp. Seems like this will be Dead after a week or two just like Heat if they pull the exact same crap then EA blames the players that no one plays it and they'll cut all future updates like Heat.
Heat is one of the worst online experiences out there. It's unbelievably bad i can't even believe it. You are thrown into a world with few players that just messes around. You want to race? Ping players! Maybe one or two will care will play with you and that's all. No dedicated rooms, no filters on which class to use, absolutely nothing. Just pure frustration all around. Might as well just remove online mode altogether if EA won't bother putting effort into it.
Lobbies/Stats/Leaderboards were in all NFS games that had the online component since Porsche unleashed until like NFS 2015. Even Underground 2 had x5 the features than even payback did (at least Payback had lobbies). It even had a dedicated competitive scene in the older NFS titles such as UG2 & Most wanted.
Most wanted from 2005 was extremely active and had 20-40 lobbies on PC racing all the time during peak time even in 2010. It was pure fun and was very competitive.
Congratulations on cutting every online feature from the newest NFS titles
Exactly my point.
Hell, even NFS HP 2010 was alive for 10 years because of the proper pvp system. I actively played it until the switch came to HPR in 2020. Same story, active lobbies and players. I still play it.
Heat was ridiculous in comparison.
This concept simply doesn't work and is not effective to keep a game alive.
