I tried beating underground with a ford focus (the worst car in the game) and it's literally impossible to win drag races in because you either die or just lose because the car is incredibly slow. In the old games drag races wasn't about speed it was about not crashing into traffic cars. Most wanted is the exact same. The best drag racing that I have tried is pro street as there isn't lane switching. Lane switching is what made drag races so bad. I don't get why they did that.
the early cars in the career mode are the worst,especially given new and the best performance parts at the end of the career mode is dumb because in drag racing if you have low gears you could easily blow up the engine
@@ns3997 that's why In general I just don't like drag racing in underground or most wanted because it's just rigged. Has nothing to do with skill since the traffic cars are always in a pattern and the whole time you just car about trying to avoid traffic rather than actually racing while the other cars are coded to be fast and just avoid everything. At least in every other race the ford focus could at least have a chance in drag racing it had no chance whatsoever.
How about this if they separate drage racing into 2 mods one for track no cars trying to crash you and total your just good old drag straight line , and the other we can call it the street drag and that's it 😅😂
I feel that Underground was better because it was built for this kind of event and you could tell from the gameplay as it looks a lot more refined and smoother than Unbound whose drag events took place in a pretty flawed physics engine and a map where I'm not sure Criterion even planned to put drag events in (they didn't even add drag tires).
imo, the only thing missing in Unbound from old drag races, are the cars jumping in front of you to get you totaled, mw npc used to piss me off soo much in drag races
I just finished playing Underground and i think is so much better than this newest releases. For me NFS series were good because of the ATMOSPHERE. Unbound lacks of that it just looks plain simple, visually has nothing interesting just childish aesthetics, with no soul or something you could feel connected to. As a graphic designer and visual artist I think creative directors need to do more effort in that area, visually and sonically. Idk but the last 3 releases are insipid or give you the sense of empty 🤔
idk I thought the street art aspect was a cool and different idea, i think its a step in the right direction to try new things, because the ui in heat and payback look almost exactly the same
We honestly need 2 features though (at least in my opinion). Track maker, just like forza horizon (I don't mean event lab where you create your map), you just pick a start point of an event and then you keep placing checkpoints, I think that will bring back some light to some areas that are not getting enough attention IN MY OPINION Longer straights, maybe one industrial area and one airport area where we can have drag races, circuits or even organized URLs.
1:10 Bro your launches are bad because you just peg the limiter.. That's not how you do it.. you keep it in the little marked area for a boost launch.. >< that's why people be blowin you away at the line.
Underground was 2003? My mind wants to think it came out in the 90s...🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️😂 Honestly though, Underground did it better & had a fire soundtrack too!! 🔥🔥
Both blow out engine and totaled ''mechanics'' are kinda necessary if you wanna do a proper drag event. Otherwise you are better off racing in a straight line.
The original of course. The NFS Underground duology is the full sauce. The NFS Unbound version is only an inspiration with many missing features e.g Test Track w/ Dyno or Knockout Races.
I liked the drag section of Need for Speed Underground 1. I think there was a tutorial section with a mature women's voice in menu which I took more time to understand 😂. I had to watch YT video walkthrough but I last played in a time when internet was slow. There was a real simulation of engine blown situation due to overheating and drafting opponents. I don't see in Unbound. Also there was traffic and weird train jump in one track 😂. I had a Miata and Nissan 240SX and it's engine blown due to overheating. It was solved by adding a 6th gear or using performance cars such as 350Z,GTR or RX7.
With the Underground update and Speed Pass, i am really hoping now for a Most Wanted Speed Pass. I didn’t play Underground but Most Wanted is hands down the best for me!
Not before 2 to 4 years. That's because a big part of New Criterion devs are helping DICE with the next Battlefield game. Which means a new NFS isn't happening anytime soo. Making a new NFS game with a small skeleton crew is a very bad idea which results in an unfinished product.
don't want that forza rewind sheez that grid introduced to the genre in my beloved nfs series, also the goofy grip and drift handling suks, just give us any most wanted handling that way everyone will be happy, this is a arcade racer brev don't bring the simcade and sim sheez here, those be slur words to us arcade faithful for life
Have you tried installing the classic Need for Speed from Underground to Hot Pursuit on Android? Let me explain that using Winlator you can play any of these as if we were using Windows XP or Windows 7. 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I've been killing a fever with that... It would be great if you made a video playing any game you can think of that your mobile is capable of running. 😎 Tremendous experience and a lot of nostalgia. The only one I couldn't race was the Need for Speed Undercover... I haven't tried the ones that came out later. It would be great to be able to play SoapBoxRace's Need for Speed World, but I couldn't get the installer or launcher running yet. There are even videos out there of people running Grand Theft Auto V on a smartphone.
Do you know any fix to the game crashing like every 15 min? I cant even play tbh. I have a good rig too, my friend who is on a gaming laptop plays it smoothly and I have a 4070 ti and i9 14900k and it crashes.
Unbound is just ass. Just gimme a NFS Heat 2 and don't bring this series back again. Bring back Ghost studios. They had it dialed, before we could even have fixes they axed Heat 😢 Criterion just don't a flying damn F#%$ about us or NFS franchise. The Unite team and everyone else who mods their game has more passion and dedication to make a great game, even greater. Back then we didn't have Unite but we had everything we wanted and that was over two decades ago... what's stopping them now? After this I'm never buying another NFS game again if I have to hear from you and others that I must always use Unite and other mods to make a game playable 😂 thought drifting was gonna be fun, not annoying because if you use a RWD car you definitely gonna lose over AWD/4WD If I was criterion and them I'd just work with these guys and make the game an awesome Vanilla game across ALL platforms because there are people who just wanna be on console over PC. It makes no sense to own 3 copies of one game across all platforms, it just doesn't make any sense. CarX was a mobile game and look how they actually listen and improve upon even with the drama that happened recently... Its 2024 and we still can't go over 400Km/h need mods for it 😂
Underground did it better, unbound sucks so much. It’s just a very low effort copy and paste game, I mean you can get a countach as a starter car lol. I paid for the last 2 NFS games and regretted wasting my time on them, you just feel so empty after finishing those games, there’s no heart and soul in them
No. Toyota cars stopped appearing since NFS 2015. If EA wants Toyota back, they have to conclude a license deal and find agreements in the contract clauses in order to appear in future NFS games. Otherwise, cars from the Toyota group will not comeback anytime soon. Toyota in NFS Mobile doesn't count since it's Tencent which had already paid the license. That doesn't mean Toyota will comeback in mainline NFS games. The same occurrence applies for all car brands.
They managed to make the handling model worse than in the game from 20 years ago. How? I think Most Wanted 2005 despite having some cool ideas has mostly ruined the franchise, with not a single good game after Underground 2..
Does this fix the god awfull story and music of the game which are 2/3 of the game? No so why are we talking about not even 2 min long events being added to a game that other having nicked the physics from Heat and added Race Weeks it has NOTHING good going for it. Dont waste your fucking money.
This isn't even a fair comparison the old nfs games will always be on top of these crappy new ones honestly nfs 2022 was a huge flop in my opinion the story was alright didn't finish it it got to boring no narrative whatsoever the cars are unbalanced literally 2 cars own the whole game especially online people don't use different cars to spice things up it's always the op car just like in nfs heat everyone just raced with the op Porsche 911 the cartoon graphics really killed the game for me I hate the cartoon smoke colors they should've just did what gta 5 did with smoke colors the online is by far the most broken because again 2 op cars own the whole game nobody online wants to race normally it's either race with the most broken car or I ain't participating at all type of scenario and omg people that race dirty asf to get first place is just irritating people that race like that have no business being in a racing game nor a racing scene at all.

As I said earlier they need to add the possibility to blow off the engine, it would fix the op DMC12

I want voice chat on this game. I had so much hope given how the career mode goes each race we get shit talk maybe make it a mic timer thingy

Underground is better beacuse it looks nicer and it's has better handling psychics
It was painful watching you drag race in Underground. It's so simple, how could you mess it up like this.
