Oh well I personally think we've had plenty of that with the last 15 NFS iterations. It's about time they changed things up but I think the Criterion team (burnout) who are rumored to be making the off year NFS will appeal to those who like the garbage from Underground -> Undercover.

Thats Shaderaliasing. You would need a special AA methode called SSAA to clean the shaderaliasing because the normal AA doesnt clean the shaderaliasing.

To use this you need
1. nhancer
2. deactivate motionblurr ingame
3. active SSAA in nhancer

BUT... SSAA is very performancehungry

NO IT DOESN'T!! An 8800GT runs the game with max settings at 2560x1600! Ask anyone!!!

Rolling Eyes


Seriously though, I'm running at 1280x1024 (monitor max) and 2xAA. Any higher and I get around 28-30fps when other cars are in view.

I don't understand. Seems like people are never satisfied. The garbage that they've released for the past 6 years was always catching flak and when something like this comes out it gets the same.

And no Underground wasn't awesome. If you didn't notice Underground was/is the same game as Undercover with a change of setting. Which is basically what they did for the last 5 or so games, re hash with some new actors and location.

I couldn't even play Undercover, I found the game broken/unplayable. I raged-qq and uninstalled it and shift-delled the image.

I wouldn't have even downloaded it if it wasn't for a failface friend of mine that wanted to "play the new nfs, durr hurr"

Underground was awesome and unique, I spent a hundred hours on those 2 games, and Most Wanted was even more awesome ! Then the shitstorm began.

I see that our opinions differ, but at least acknowledge the huge success of the 2 underground games, your opinion is the minority.

Anyway, I hope the next NFS is old-school racing like the first games, you know in exotic locations with exotic cabriolet cars ! w00t

@ ragnarus
Pack up your failure and migrate to another forum. The game looks great and the gfx are very good.

you cant be the one to decide what nfs today is all about, thats up to the devs/publishers Very Happy

Thats like saying black people are all about slavery still...

have fun with nfss as you see fit to, im sorry it doesnt have scrolling street scenery with cloned buildings every 10 seconds with slightly diff neon light colours Very Happy but this is release as always stated is about track accuracy with a bit of sim/phsyx/arcade type hud etc all thrown into one..

I dont see what the fuss is, you all knew what it was about, why complain?

 Spoiler:
 


This is the only recent game that doesn't stutter, but with 4xAA (and with a lot of cars on-screen even in 2xAA) it drops to 30s.

it has not metamorphed into anything, its been re-designed and re-pakaged.. I guess you dont like the way the game has "changed direction" thats fine. but no good being upset about it, as I said we all knew, there was tons of info on the game and what they were doing.

makes me laugh thats all, its like people were suddenly given a game they new nothing about and unwrapped it to find it, oh noes its not nfs underground? wtf!!!!!..

Maybe people spend to much time in bed with the curtains closed, dunno ?

What are the 'Arcade' settings? I would like to race with that config too.

During the test lap when you start your career it lets you choose upon completing it. Basically your lap is how the game dictates/suggests which setting you should use based on how close you follow the line/etc. So if you don't want all the traction loss/oversteer/etc turn some of the assists on or use one of the pre defined settings at the end of the test lap.

They're not actually "Arcade" settings (sorry, should have been more clear) they're just not as simulation-like. I'll show you what I'm racing with;

With those I get as close to an "arcade" racer as possible, without being stupid simple (seriously? Steering and Breaking help? Ugh)

There is a way to stop the intro movies. Just create a file with notepad and rename it to *.bik, replacing the files on the game movies folder.

Ok.Game requires xp sp3.For all of you running it in comp mode 98/ME get the sp3 and game runs fine then.With comp mode you'll have a loss of about 35-40% in perfomance.
Bad thing is that before i apply sp3 i updated to 190.62 drivers leaving behind the excellent 186.18.I have 10-15% gain in batman and all other games but Shift either is unoptimized or doesn't like these drivers.With 1680x1050,2xAA,8xAF fps drop to 25-30 with many cars in front on my 8800gt.

I'm running it at 2xAA 1920x1080 and it's working quite smoothly on a 8800GT

but the game is quite crap and boring, will probably uninstall and delete shorty
I haven't played any NFS games since Most wanted
