@Speedyheart You’re right

[@SoulCast7]

@@Speedyheart yeah....I wouldn't go so far. Although this would have a giant advantage over Most Wanted 2005 because it's newer and has better physics and graphics, there's a certain vibe or style that MW05 had and I really doubt they've replicated that. MW05 had car customization too, so yeah... It could've been a great Most Wanted Reboot and a brilliant NFS game, but to go as far as saying it would've been much better than MW05...yeah, no.

[@ALMF-iz9nn]

So sad Criterion didn't have enough time to make a complete MW2 project. But I hate EA and fans who blamed Criterion for the Burnout MW2012 we got in the end. EA rush order caused both this project and Burnout are gone.But at least Criterion still show enough talent in the final product.

[@Speedyheart]

i think its a fault that can't exactly be pinned on anybody. criterion knew the time constraints (there is a myth that the game was going to release in 2013 which is created from the fact the game is named nfs2013 but all nfs games had the year after they released in their name) and ea couldn't really let them take forever to make a game.

[@ALMF-iz9nn]

@@Speedyheart But the game rushed to 2012 for the failure of The Run/Shift2, thus led to many deletion of contents. So Criterion was blamed hard for the fake MW game and the rush also caused Criterion fell apart with core devs left studio for indie games. I guess if The Run/Shift2 weren't so disappointing, the game we got in the end may still be Burnout2012

It's hard for him to keep up this up trying to avoid contact with the police since every police department(Tri-City Bay, Fairhaven, etc.) has been alerted. But as time goes on, he starts to "blend in" with the other traffic. He arrives at fairhaven which an unknown person (could be Clarence Callahan) telling him see of he still got the guts in him to fight against the cops. (Could explain some of the missions) and then he revs the engine of his M3 E92 and begins the chase..." And we made never know what happen to Paul since the story was scrapped sadly.

[@ZoomieDeer]

I don't think I'd enjoy it (In it's alpha / beta state). It may have been much more ambitious / intriguing, but at the end of the day this is unfinished, buggy, not necessarily optimized, and probably only has a bit more content than a short demo, at most. It's really cool watching and learning about it, but this isn't a full game (Like many other development builds of other games).

[@arctic_andrew]

this is literally the Need for Speed The Run but with free roam would be a excellent game because i loved The Run physics!

Is that the engine sound that would be used? Omg that's one thing that nfs does well is sound. If only this game was made, it would be my fav NFS. But EA and Ubisoft are not fans of making masterpieces. Just throwing games out as much as possible. Sigh... I would be playing this game today still if it existed.

Yeah the V8 E92 engine sound is muuuuuuuch lower than what is given to the car in this build..EA and Criterion got the sound right in the current MW2012..

Being a huge mega fan of the franchise i was really hoping for there to be more busted cutscenes and things like this but at least still thankful for what we got don’t get me wrong it still runs a little short but we need more need for speed games including ones with cutscenes when you get busted.
