I REALLY dislike the lack of progression - getting any car you find kills any satisfaction of progressing and getting faster cars as you move in the game, which is one of my favorite aspects of the series.

[@shadowknight9395]

Yeah even hot pursuit 2010 had a better progression system than this

[@zedcario]

[did you know ?] In the prototype of the game, when you change cars its alarm activates and if the exchange is made close to a police car, a chase begins. It's a small detail that was removed from the game for no real reason I think.

[@maxwellhosea2724]

Ah yes...its in the July 14th build

[@J3f3R20n]

The most fun "modern" NFS. Also one of the few ones that made map exploration meaningful since you had to find the cars to use AND each car had it's own set of races.

[@asuitabledriver8025]

Not really there's a total of 20-30 races that get reused a lot not counting the airport dlc.

[@J3f3R20n]

@@asuitabledriver8025 yeah, but as far as i remember you would still need to race them with each car if you wanted upgrades and shit like that. The intros were cool too. In contrast, i finished Heat with the 180sx and never bothered doing other races with other cars, unless it was different disciplines like rally or drift which i only did to progress story.

[@thunderjumper7958]

I remember the messed up cop scenes and i thought my game was glitching. Soo… i took out the game, breathed some condensation onto it and cleaned it with my shirt thinking i could fix it. I was so dumb.

This game actually had probably the best car audio sounds in the whole franchise. I loved this game’s fun multiplayer but too bad no one is playing it.

I loved this game. MW 2012 multiplayer was a blast. ☺

[@johnnystankiewicz295]

Imo multiplayer was the worst part about this game, i didnt really like in the first place

[@jaywinters6010]

Had a blast when I first got this on the PSVita though. It was a huge upgrade for NFS on portable consoles because the last NFS portable titles were all on PSP with their own limitations.

[@Quad_Plex]

It was the only real simcade racer on the vita aswell, it filled that role perfectly on the system However I do remember having issues evading oncoming traffic in the vita version due to the low resolution and draw distance

[@filipzwolakiewicz8306]

For me the game wasn't bad. Great soundtrack, a lot of cars and great graphics. There were a couple of thinga I didn't like, but I wasn't dissapointed. Because I didn't compare it to the REAL Most Wanted. This was just another NFS

[@shadowknight9395]

Actually this game wasn’t even bad, but the lack of progression just killed this game for me

[@krystekize5871]

Pro Street and MW 2012 best soundtracks, also really loved gameplay of both.

[@BossDemo]

I personally really like this game, i dont expect every title to stay true to its origin, going in i didnt think about it being a sequel to MW, i just thought of it as a need for speed game and boy did i have fun, i still play it from time to time :D

[@RobinThomson277]

I've only played the Vita version, sure, but for me this is probably bottom of the pile for physics in need for speed... prostreet works if you pretend you're a trackday noob, undercover is silly, HP2010 is boring but reasonably consistent and 2015 at least lets you play around to find a sweet spot. MW2012 has so many brake 2 drift moments where kerbs and hills throw you straight out of the drift into a wall and so many jumps that last forever and kill you and those crash cameras made everything so painful.

[@johnnystankiewicz295]

Yeah, i just get so fucking mad everytime i see new racing games release and none of them has these amazing physics like most wanted (2005) or world. It just all went downhill from this point :

[@SCREAMILLUSION]

See long as the next NFS looks like this visually the handling is as tight, but more a combo of this/Heat and the sounds, I'll be more warmed up by them handling NFS as long as they keep the story, the customization and build upon it instead of making or trying to make NFS Burnout 2.0. Unpopular opinion but I actually wouldn't mind if racing games got 8-year cycles like other game genres, to make a polished fleshed-out experience.

[@TheCapitalWanderer]

thats not really an unpopular opinion lol, tons of people doesnt like rushed games

[@perfectlap9379]

Eight year!?

[@someguy8951]

Nfs burnout already exists, it's called Burnout Paradise.

[@jkliao6486]

I remember the needle point speed challenge. As a kid who didn't know how to drive, that event was really hard. Still, fun game, just never lived up to the expectation.

[@stekarenhd6911]

If this game wasnt called most wanted the general impression would have been way different

[@sdewey4152]

I always found the faster the car the worse the handling and the weirder they act over bumps and elevation. This is why I'd usually use the Aventador online, that said having played online for like 2-300 hours when you do get used to the Koeningsegg and Bugatti you're basically unstoppable.

[@derpyderp1991]

The srt viper gts is one of the few cars that you can beat the hard races unupgraded

[@JTCF]

I had no previous context on Most Wanted and it was just a game (along with The Run) thta my dad installed on my pc when he gifted me my first gamepad. I love this game. I played 2005 much later and it is a completely different game.

[@saadhasan2518]

This game and Rivals are the most fun modern NFS games it feels so much fun to drive in these games

[@paw565]

What changes have you made to the config file? Input delay really looks reduced by a lot.

[@dylansandoval9841]

Definitely would not mind this being remastered with all the dlc on next gen. Would be great if they added the cut cars too that are basically there but that would be too much effort. Have so many great memories with this on ps3 when it was new. Got it for Christmas in 2012 and that was a great year with the dlc.

[@dalelumina3]

the cop cutscenes are proper bollywood material LOL

[@karim_isma]

Imagine if Criterion make a proper Carbon reboot with good storyline featuring some of the original actors.. that would be epic

[@itskaspahoe7161]

I enjoyed this nfs when it came out, I had alot of friends that I played it with, made it alot of run I had no complaints about it. I enjoyed you had to drive the car to actually unlock stuff for it. It made you drive cars you wouldn't 💯

[@IAmAPerson27]

Agreed! I also had a blast with this game. Actually met a few life-long friends through it. It will always be special to me. It’s definitely not a great NFS game (especially doesn’t deserve the Most Wanted name), but if you forget the name it is genuinely a lot of fun!

[@rekt_n_line]

Definitely one of my favorite NFS games along with Prostreet and UG2. I can agree that they shouldn't have given it the Most Wanted title, but seeing as they were trying to give the fans a true Most Wanted 2 before the game became what it was, I can live with it. A great game in it's own right, just not as Most Wanted.

[@Vagodroch3rz]

You literally said my set of games lmao

[@coltwalker8688]

Ok, my take on how they could've implemented some sort of car progression Make certain cars or a couple of cars open when reaching a certain sp limit, their swap points appear on the map but you have to manually drive to them and swap to be able to fast travel there at any moment

[@FloxieImpy]

If I'm correct he said that when someone mentioned nfs 2015 pepega mod or nfs 2015 remaster

[@Kangiru_Noah]

I mean, its pretty obvious that this game will be remastered, its just that criterion will give the source code to the hpr devs (that they gave it already months ago or something) then pretty much work on upscaling the graphics + maybe add a livery editor then release it in 2022 or 2023 (depending on how well the licensing goes, i hope they will give the same car list + dlc cars as the original)

I played the shit out of the multiplayer in this game and really liked it, I just wish we were able to pick the kind of events we wanted to play. Apart from the takedown mechanics and crash cams, I think the multiplayer was very underrated.

[@Sombreropancake-cakemix]

This game is a good example of what happens when nfs hot pursuit does a one night stand with burnout paradise.

[@HisameSymouri1995]

I loved this game for the soundtrack and how simple it was.....it was a bare bones NFS experience like the original 5 games with the added car upgrades. I'm getting extremely tired of the modern NFS games trying to emulate the feeling of NFS most wanted and carbon but with over the top customization and garbage soundtracks. I grew up with NFS III and High Stakes.....that is what the true NFS experience is to me and what I truly want out of a NFS game. I like the simplicity of pick a car and drive fast and those cool showcases they had in the menus. There was no story, no customization....just you and your fast cars using skill to drive rather than upgrades and tuning. NFS 2022 I expect a great soundtrack and sound design.....but I feel like it's gonna be another most wanted/carbon style attempt with a goofy story and weird physics.

[@vaulthunterfromterra4053]

The main thing Burnout Fairhaven needed (gameplay wise) is higher top speeds for non hyper cars. Everything has upgrades, but nothing has power upgrades. If someone could make a mod that gives Venom or Veyron acceleration & speed to everything else, that would be great.

[@vaulthunterfromterra4053]

Along with obviously needing to be a property finished game, but we already knew that.

"The game will be remastered by 2023." I'd really like to see the Wii U version with the DLC on the Switch. If they want to sell me on a remaster on other consoles, they'll have to add something new (like HPR's livery/paint editor or the ability to play every event with every car).

This is the first need for speed with multiple car classes and each car having their own TOP SPEED. People do not understand how great that was at the time and still is. Too much NFS games have cars topping out at the same too speed, hell even The Crew 2 does this. Each car was its own. Not sitting up here worrying about why a hellcat and Z06 are BOTH goin 220mph when one is clearly more powerful.
