NFS The Run - What The Final Race Supposed To Look Like (Hidden & Cut Challenges)

More cut content for Need For Speed The Run, this time showing 3 hidden & cut challenge series from the game. One of which gives insight onto what the Final Race would actually look like but unfortunately was cut in the final game. Another challenge that was cut is a 3 lap Gymkhana/Rallycross inspired track.
Unfortunately The Run perfected mod has issues and some can't access these challenges. You can download the mod here:

BRO IVE SEEN YOU EVERYWHERE!!

[@MisterResistance101]

Honestly it would've made more sense if Marcus had his mob boys hindering you during the final race. Felt pretty off seeing it literally just be you vs him when he clearly has the power to call his boys up. Imagine if they would've followed you into the train tracks and you see them get hit by those trains you dodge. Or better yet, imagine if you never got forced to the train tracks at all if you were ahead of Marcus at that point and instead you both were battling in the alternate route roads with the mob boys still hindering you. Just typing this sounds like good mod material.

[@HeroManNick132]

It will be also harder if the attack helicopter has returned.

[@geffnapp8469]

Let alone the fact he's on a Aston Martin Tier 6 car and us we're forced to use a Tier 5 car

[@marcusblackwell]

My idea for the script is: Marcus just races with Jack without cheating or shooting against him. Clean race. In the final, at the place of the containers, Marcus overpasses Jack's Porsche RSR, Zonda or Aventador (as it happens, although in the final corner the game puts us on Marcus' side) and win The Run. In the final, Marcus say his plans, say about the mafia and, lastly, shoots at Jack, killing him. Honestly, I was rooting for Marcus. Villains are always cooler than the protagonist

[@izanamiisoverpowered6802]

I'm surprised that they didn't use the Porsches for the final race. Being constantly bombarded by the AI from all directions while avoiding traffic and trying to beat the Aston Martin to the finish line seems like a perfect finale to the game, compared to the glorified playable cutscene we got.

Going against the train on extreme mode is a suicide mission because driving perfectly is the only thing stopping that train from rearranging your hole 5 cubic feet

[@NobleGamer0117]

The Docks section of the race is probably the most difficult regardless of the difficulty for two reasons. 1. You have to be near perfect with your speed and the way you weave through the containers. 2. For some reason at that part, Marcus Blackwell's Aston Martin One-77 becomes faster than a Bugatti Veyron and rockets in the lead, regardless of how far you are ahead of him at that point.

[@HeroManNick132]

The only 2 races in the Challenge Series that has kinda like "circuit races" were Porsche Attack and Interstate loop. These were the closest to circuits. Edit: I think for PS3/Xbox 360 there was an event Father of wind that is similar as Porsche Attack.

[@Marrrrtin]

As Nikolay says, most of the maps aren't circuits, they are point-to-point. Can't do laps if the start line is different from the finish line! They would've had to make new circuit maps, which they almost certainly didn't have time for.

[@Oscar97o]

@@Marrrrtin They could have used the same maps, with the same scenery and more road geometry. Though obviously there's basically nothing outside of the playable area, so it wouldn't have been that simple.

As a born and bred New Yorker, the way EA just blatantly misrepresents how NYC actually looks in this game, irks me to no end. Like, the area surrounding the Brooklyn Bridge entrances are nowhere near that large. There are no open subway tunnels easily accessible to cars. The alleyways are nowhere near as long, nor do they remotely look the same. Not to say the map has to be a 100% portrayal, but you can't take design elements from various cities around the globe, stick them in a game slap on the Brooklyn Bridge in there and claim it's an NYC stage. It's an iconic city with arguably the most distinct style of any city ever. I mean, atleast try to make a convincing NYC stage.

NFS Payback seems purposely was made to look bad. Like why the graphics in the trailer seems way better than the final and how 5 year old game even till today even if it is bad still it has the best graphics at night? And yeah just like NFS Heat more promises than added things. Sure it was added more aggressive cops but the problem is they are not free roam cops and to activate them you have to select the random bait crate events and you have to go to specific location to end the chase. Plus it is not that exciting but way better than NFS 2015's cops. Ironically even if NFS Payback is considered one of the worst NFS still it is 10x better than F&F Crossroads aka the worst racing game for 2020 and one of the worst racing games ever made. And the irony is how this game makes NFS Payback to look like a real F&F game.

1:36 it took that Cayenne a second to realize it was wrecked

[@SpitfireTheWolf]

Jeez the rubberband is still there too. You gotta love scripted events lol

[@HeroManNick132]

Rubberbanding has been since NFS U1.

[@eizlaniskandar7946]

Actually, im glad its cut bcz seriously, it doesnt make sense that Porsche Cayenne can go over 250 mph just to chase tier 5 and 6 cars unless they only form roadblocks for the player or a better interceptor mob unit like a Nissan GT-R police or a Gallardo Valentino Balboni police If this was a police chase intended for the race, make sense they use powerful interceptor instead of a heavy risky rollover vehicle like Cayenne

[@M4V3R1CK_13]

The cayennes are from the mob. Like all appearances, they were supposed to chase and sh00t at you

[@unitoftemp]

I'm surprised by the lack of cops and mobs during the last race.

[@KingStretch35]

Man I miss The Run I loved this game it was so underrated I played the crap outta this game

[@kensinny4126]

4:19 oh hey it's a choose your audi theme but better one

[@SleepyPopups]

The cut contents we're weird, especially the WRX restricted ones, it's just laps. ALSO the first cut challenge is basically Final Race but with mobs, which is a bit harder. Edit: The first "Survived" part was not there in the prototype final race, or challenge "Drive Harder" because we're on the right lane. ****CUT**** race is weirder, idk what's the race supposed to be, ik it's T. A. but it's just plain weird. (Also the license plate on the Gymkhana Inspired level has word "Rally" with BBX logo on it.)

[@HeroManNick132]

Another weird fact that this Tier 2 Subaru has the same livery, sound, license plate as Tier 5 Subaru but the performance and the kit are from stock Tier 2 Subaru.

[@SleepyPopups]

Yes. Addition to the BBX license plate. I didn't see that license plate anywhere else.

[@HeroManNick132]

@@SleepyPopups Another weird fact is that if this is a time race why it has normal starting cutscene instead of these that are made for time races? You know these that have flashing timers that appear for a second. And did you notice at 5:51 that it says finish 1st instead of make up time?

[@racerspeedythehedgehog1858]

At 5:16, if you play it at 0.5x or 0.25x speed, you can see some stolen or borrowed footage from the Daniel Craig 007: Quantum of Solace movie. Nuts but I wouldn't mind it, tbh. Just was shocked and caught off guard.

[@mahmoodyousif5204]

Now this game needs a remastered version, or it’s art 2

[@socialistrepublicofvietnam1259]

this is somewhat looking fun

[@Michaeldesanta12356]

1:36 holy fucking shit outta nowhere 😂😂😂

[@TheNamelessRacer]

I liked this game, story wise and all, but this was more fitting for the final

[@AmberHeardofme]

i just realize how unique and amazing the sounds cars here is. is there any way to get this game with there DLC's?

[@HeroManNick132]

Well, if you purchase the game you'll get Signature Edition DLC pack (but since Limited Edition was for limited time you can't get it without unlockers, mods or second-hand Limited Edition copy). And I think this mod - NFS The Run Perfected that ISAD used has the DLC unlocker like Old Spice, Limited Edition, Most Wanted/Underground, Carbon but sadly not the last DLC that was released - the Italian pack. If you want the Italian pack DLC you have to get the PS3 or Xbox 360 version, because sadly seems there is no mod or patch that adds them yet.

[@AmberHeardofme]

@@HeroManNick132 oh okay thanks.

[@cheesyeurotrance95]

@@HeroManNick132 the only DLC that would've made the game worth playing for me isn't for PC :(

[@HeroManNick132]

@@cheesyeurotrance95 Well, seems for now for most modders it it hard to transfer the PS3/Xbox 360 assets.

[@amer2142]

Downloaded the mod through the way back machine gonna try it today !!

[@BL4Q_K]

This was the last relevant NFS.

[@bismarck6]

the first music is straight out of a Metro game

[@The_Martin_Pro]

Ah yes Marcus is a secret JDM fan

[@lk_5_825]

Tbh the story from The Run for Nintendo was slightly better and the end race was great. You do the race to NYC and then you have to escape NYC from the mafias and the police

[@Levi1990Smith]

The venom gt is the one car that needs to be in more games. Awesome vehicle

[@pewpew-_-2157]

this and the wii version are pretty cool nfs games

[@KyleRuggles]

Still my favorite NFS game! And then Porsche Unleashed.

[@choonblaze]

NFS was never the same quality after 2005. Such a shame

[@HeroManNick132]

Are you from these types that say last good NFS is NFS MW 2005 and the rest of them suck?

[@salamov963]

100x better than original one

[@Broald5]

NFS the run is literally press forward thats it

[@giogamergh8168]

Who else wants a remastered/movie or book about this?

[@alejandrosantibanez8574]

​​@@giogamergh8168 you have NFS the movie, which is similar to the run

[@sundaydriver2117]

I actually liked the final race, but it is scripted a lot. It would've been cooler if it was more like the avalanch race from earlier in the game where things were happening as you race. It also would've been cool if they kept the other Mob cars chasing after you.

[@HeroManNick132]

With the cops and attacking helicopter but that is too much. Also if you pass the barriers before the tunnel the cutscene when Marcus is shooting at you it won't play.

[@alejandrosantibanez8574]

The idea of this game was excellent but it felt quite incomplete imo

[@FarmYardGaming]

1:34+ Lord above!
