They've taken the road of Fast n the Furious, haven't they? Go undercover, root out some criminals, get caught, stay alive.
Let's hope this one's better than the last few titles!

Impressive trailer. No signs of damage yet, at least none in the trailer posted. But they're going with a story that seems decent, and the same old same old tuner culture. The FMVs for one look impressive, but it's all about what teasers do to you.
I guess no of the NFS oldie-lovers here will like that NFS isn't back to its roots, but it has been announced a long time ago, so I hope we'll avoid posts like "This is not NFS 3 or 4" and "Give us exotics back" or "Give us the sequel of THAT installment" or whatever. This is an announced game, and I'd rather we'd comment on what we know about it and post news.
The feature list is still TBA, so we don't know anything about level of customization, carlists and the rest. That's the important stuff. Still, if anything, although it'll be one of the same, if it doesn't have the extremely short length of Carbon, I'll be playing it through. Once.
EDIT: Wait, there is a preview here. And here's what NFSUnlimited posts as the main info one can take from it.
Quote: | * open world with free roam
* cops
* damage (visual)
* day only driving
* action driving model
* circuit, sprint, canyon, highway battle gaming modes (no drag and drift)
* big hollywood-like story
* visual customization with Autosculpt and separate bumpers and side skirts
* performance tuning
* NOS, speedbreaker |
I have to say I'm disappointed about the fact that it lacks drag, but since it was so poorly implemented in Most Wanted, maybe it's a good thing. I couldn't care less about drifting though, since I'm getting all the drifting I want from GRID. I wouldn't imagine NFS reaching the same level on its Drift Mode.
We'll see how it turns out.
EDIT 2: For those that are actually interested, this page will be updated with any info that comes out on NFS:UC, so instead of going through the bitching, moaning and flaming that will be going on here to find a newspost, keep looking there.

New nfs = new soundtrack which is perfect for finding new music. Cant wait for the cd, the game I dont give 2 cents about but nice that they're trying something new.
One thing i cant stand with nfs games are those arcade style arrows on the side of the road signaling a turn. Just kills all realism for me and looks so 90'ish.

I know. They could've used a better way to show you the way around the predefined course. Midnight Club did it first, allowing you to use any route to get to the next checkpoint. Test Drive Unlimited had the GPS telling you the way to the next checkpoint, but you could use another route. Maybe they should have it too. I mean the city is there, use it. Have a GPS show you the best route to the next checkpoint, but let the players be able to get to the next checkpoint another way if they want. Invisible walls suck, period.

Yeah I agree also. NFSPS was crap and so was Carbon. But the rest was fine I guess.

Well Carbon wasn't something spectacular, but not even miles close to the horrific generic shite that was Pro Street. At least Carbon had some NFS with story thing in it that I grown to like, and Pro Street was just generic, dull, lifeless and boring.

Pro Street sucked, so did Carbon. The only decent NFS game in recent years is Underground2, I'd say, because of the very neat tuning system and the great in-doors racing. Most Wanted was passable, too, but cut out too much stuff.
Personally I'd be happy if they went with Underground 2 as a base, but included day-driving and lots of Ferraris, Porsches and Lamborghinis; the car selection in recent years has been horrible. Driving physics could really need some tweaking too, to make it more like NFS Porsche.

@Spiderman: Don't break the forum. Use a thumbnail or size down your pic. I'm on 1280x1024 and I have to scroll right to read the full messages now.
@Raap: I don't think they're going NFS Porsche physics anytime soon. That was just "too hard" and "boring" for the "average gamer".
P.S. Overexcessive use of quotes intended. That's just how marketing goes.
P.S.2 I know that "over" and "excessive" in one word combined is just a bit too much, if not overexcessive.

I guess Undercover is just another swing at making Most Wanted, with updated graphics and more money on the story, FMV and actors, along with some of the good elements of UG2 that MW missed.
I for one enjoyed MW a lot, so I think I'll have a good time playing UC through.
P.S. I was tempted to just use MW the first time I thought of Most Wanted, but I thought that would be a bit overexcessive.
P.S.2 OH yah, I love P.S.'es!

Heeeee~y, Autosculpt was an awesome feature! ^_^ |
The idea was awesome... but it was still too limited. There were only so many pre-made bodykits and only 5 or 6 zones you could "sculpt."

Which is why I posted this in the NFS-Undercover thread in the 360 section;
Quote: |
I'm hoping they finally do it right! Take the best bits from all the games!
NFS-Porsche Challenge's "Test Drive" feature. That was awesome that was. Test-driving all the different Porsche cars throughout the years.
NFS-Hot Pursuit's "Pursuit" game mode. Being chased by the police, or even BEING the police and chasing other drivers online.
NFS-Carbon's "Customisation" settings. Carbon had the absolute best customisation on the cars, with Auto-Sculpt topping the cake!
NFS-MW or ProStreet's "Graphics" These were easily the best looking of the series.
As for the music? I honestly don't care as long as it's not another DVD full of "gangsta" rap shite.
