NFS Unbound - Bugatti Chiron's Top Speed Is Disappointing (Fully Upgraded Gameplay)

The most expensive car in Need For Speed Unbound. Bugatti Chiron widebody customization and fully upgraded S+ Class gameplay. Sadly like every other car in this game, the Bugatti Chiron is also top speed limited to the same top speed as the Regera of 245mph/395kmh but without the acceleration. Showcasing its performance against some Intense Difficulty AI & Heat 5 Police Pursuit.

Speed caps are so weird. They should allow these cars to reach their full potential. But to a devs point of view, in a multi-player environment, people would just choose the fastest car, and you'll have an 8 player race of Bugatti Chirons 🤣

[@MedicalBillz]

Or get this, buff other cars and let the bugatti and regera be at their fullest. I really feel like some cars should do 240+ like the F1 and the very high hp cars.

[@Liger_Soba]

@@MedicalBillz But after using common sense that’s not very smart. Why take the time and buff the speed of literally nearly 130 cars just to match like 14 cars in their top speed, when they could take those 14 cars and lower their speed a little so they can keep every cars top speed similar. Plus seeing a Volkswagen Golf going nearly 300 miles per hour just to match a Chiron doesn’t seem right, and 220-240’s mph is plenty to feel the speed of the game already, so no damn point..

It’s been in most recent nfs games

[@domasbaliulis23]

so's the same thing for those who don't want to spend a single penny on this. besides, i don't think you wanna go over the limit of the maximum speed you can get in this nfs game. i can imagine it will feel WAY too fast in this one and you can crash into a wall or a traffic car, hell, maybe even the police Raptor or any other obstacle easily. that's the reason for the speed cap. there's a trainer that is probably out there already (maybe not yet, but then again, there's always at least one waiting), the "professional modders" can wait. they can easily cause a another "GTA 6 leak" situation.

[@kevingame3198]

[@lawrencechikowore9227]

Classic nfs for you rubber band in all their games

[@Cluvey]

For people asking themselves why there's such a limited speed cap: It's a mix between loading performance and contracts and licensing with the cars' manufacturers. In one hand you get your game's city which needs to load more sections and faster proportionally to your in-game speed (main reason). On the other hand you have big manufacturers using these games as a marketing platform for their vehicles, trying not to overpromise the performance and customisation options (not all manufacturers and partial reason). In order for the developers to keep an understanding balance in nice cars and good game performance at high speed they needed to limit the total speed of the cars (They even coded the traffic AI to spawn and crash into you to ease the system as one of the solutions).

[@SolAirCx560]

To add to this comment, I don't think anyone wants to go 255mph and fly into or over the train tracks 💀 I'm speaking from experience 😂😂😂

[@damn6039]

In heat with mods you can unlock the speed limits and game still works and loads fine Plus unbound got the benefit of being a next gen only game not limited in structure by last gen's HDDs

[@Cluvey]

@@damn6039 Well yeah the console runs it just fine but put a bunch of fast players with different Wi-Fi speeds on a server and it all slows down and lags. Under-powering people's cars online while keeping the local play unbounded would unbalance your gameplay and transition form On and Offline.

[@Eeveethegamer26]

In FH5 you can push Bugatti's to go faster lol. I don't think licensing or whatever has much to do with how fast a car should be able to go with max upgrades

[@yungplague2535]

i know the video is about the top speed but I'm really impressed with how much tighter the handling feels on unbound. you can still randomly lose grip and end up flying somewhere uncontrollably. buuuuut you can keep grip for the most part.

I assume for the same reasons why your top speed is around 240 kmh in gta v and burnout paradise. Map doesn’t load fast enough and it causes performance issues due to open world. But that’s just my guess

In Forza Horizon 5 you can drive 470-500 km/h and see what happens on xbox one s or weaker computers.

NFS Pro Street had too and even older NFS of Black Box before that had a rev limiter too which also limited the top speed.

Because if you go too fast then the map doesn't load, and this is completely on the game devs poor optimization of the games.

[@MattePurple1]

Is it capped at 245? Or is there just not enough road to get up to 261? At the upper limits, even the slightest steering adjustment will hinder it from picking up speed. The air resistance is also magnified at top speed, making each subsequent mph harder to reach (irl at least). I have a feeling that on a long enough, perfectly straight route, you might be able to hit 261 mph within the game's parameters.

[@Lebxano]
