The Worst Part of Any Racing Game.

[@mileselectric3677]

the thing i always wanted was to be able to take body parts from different cars and mix and match them. i think the derelict system would be perfect for that. it just kinda feels like that would be perfect for nfs since its more of an arcade racer it doesnt have to be super realistic all the time plus making goofy looking cars just cause you can sounds fun

[@UltraGoki]

So like gta that would be sick

[@LilnormieX]

So Gow? Yes you can mix your equipment without affecting your stats

[@mileselectric3677]

@@LilnormieX not sure what that is but being able to take newer looking bodies wrapped around older bodies of cars for example. Or even taking the body of a Corvette and a Camero and mixing it together. Just the freedom of combining anything and making your own car sounds sick to me. Games get to have custom characters why not do custom cars

[@victor-octavianrusu9297]

Yoooooo, I'm the Skyline from the 13:50 races, really happy you put the race in the vid. And yeah, R34 has an insane start and is pretty damn good in A+, tho I still find myself losing to some cars (especially the F40)

[@Cobra_427]

To me, collectibles are great if done right, I feel like the photo locations and wrecks in TDU2 are a good example of it being done right, they encourage you to explore the entirety of the map, and the photo locations do the same while also showing off beautiful spots on the map, maybe the photo part is just me being a photography nerd, but I genuinely like cruising around looking for stuff like that

[@keegangossett2896]

I don’t mind the collectibles the way NFS Unbound has done it. It gave me incentive to complete them all to unlock everything. It’s not like Payback where they were pointless or even Heat where you still had to buy the car afterwards.

[@Josh_Quillan]

I honestly really enjoy collectables that give me reasons to explore the map - my favourite part of every racing game is learning the world, and collectables can be a really good way to do this. I particularly love map features that you can use to find collectables, it becomes a map-reading detection game and I love maps. Very much enjoyed finding all the gas stations like this (not that there was any reward for that... ). I wish the locations you discover were more useful, though. A lot of collectable locations are really cool, atmospheric spots but they have no real purpose, and I feel like two of the most obvious location-based collectables that we've never seen are cooldown spots and pursuit breakers. Same for safehouses - these should be things you can simply go out and find. My main problem with them is making activities count as 'collectables' and then the idea of locking awesome cars behind them, and not even making the first attempt to link it into the game story. You found 100 ugly statues! Here, have a free Porsche! This makes NO sense. There need to be rewards, but it shouldn't be specific cars - vouchers good for any car, or discounts on any car (or ascending classes, perhaps - first one you get is B, then A, then A+...) would be better, or maybe minor parts like unique vinyls or wheels or something, or a ton of money, but the way it is now, entire cars like this gorgeous M1 are not going to be seen by many players because relatively few people will honestly be arsed to both find all the collectables and do all the activities. And dammit I don't like drifting! Don't make me build a genuinely good drift car and do every damn drift zone just to get a totally unrelated car. Totally agree about the derelict builds in Payback, that was one of the best features of that game and I really enjoyed gradually constructing the cars, it's a major incentive to progress. I remember wishing there was a game that was 100% derelicts. I also really liked the idea of the parts trucks in 2015. I'd like to see something a little like the scanner from Far Cry 2 be used, where a beep/flashing light increases in speed the closer you get, but there's no directional indication. I think it makes you read the map better. I like that seeing them puts them on the map, but I'd like marking the map to be a manual thing you actively have to do if you want to record a position.

[@existentialselkath1264]

For all forzas faults, it has the one collectable I don't mind at all. Fast travel boards. It just makes sense to make sure the player has fully explored the map before freely skipping past it.

[@sundaydriver2117]

i actually can agree with still dont want too many collectibles but I like the fast travel part

[@TheRealdraudE]

I love collectables, to enjoy them it's based on how you get them, collecting collectables is not as fun when you focus on exclusively getting them

[@tresuzuki7936]

For achievement purposes it becomes less fun for sure

[@LilnormieX]

Yea NFS heat did it the best by combining collecting collectibles and and exploring st the same time Also the game rewards you with great cars like the m4 gts or the fkkx and it gives you a reason to replay it unlike unbound which feels very grindy and frustrating

[@NicoKyunKyun]

i built a car specifically for collectable hunting, i made drift car, use the beetle for the speed traps, an offroad truck that jumps like a stadium struck for the ramps

[@Manjustman_25806]

Honestly who ever came up with off-road drifting needs to be “ game ended” Edit: to clarify irl rally’s are really fun and as an amateur driver I highly recommend it I’m just saying that in game ie in inbound or in heat off-road drifting is so annoying

[@ZayySpazz]

[@Lady_Aleera]

When I was a lass and gaming was a mystery that I wanted to explore my little heart out, I would collect everything I could find. As a adult (old lass) I just don't have the patience to collect stuff, it becomes a chore and extremely lamentable. I guess as we get older, we take the easiest way out of doing anything

[@MattePurple1]

I don't mind doing the collectables. I do mind that the collectibles are only $250 ($2,500 in Heat). Also you can only do the activities one time, whereas in Heat you could re-run them for more money, which is DESPERATELY needed in Unbound.

[@sahil_tayade]

Collectables are optional. Some people really like them, myself included. helps appreciate the entire map and find cool things on a chill rainy day

[@jackdren9974]

Not really optional when they lock cars behind them. They are tedious and lazy game design.

[@sahil_tayade]

@@jackdren9974 there are so many non locked cars. You can't say it's mandatory if u haven't played with all of the already unlocked cars

[@ImmortanDan]

@@sahil_tayade That's such a dumbass argument. "Oh it doesn't count as mandatory because there are so many other cars to play with" well maybe I don't want the other cars. I don't want to grind out $1.5M to get some shitass Chiron, and I sure as hell don't want to tune a dumb old Volvo. I want an M1, and the game making me cheese all the numerous collectable objectives for it - especially seeing how they're not even marked on the map and depend on me driving aimlessly looking for them - is bullshit. Hell, the developers even confirmed it's bullshit by announcing that pay-to-win map pack.

[@sahil_tayade]

@@ImmortanDan that will make the m1 feel great once you get it. If you actually want the car then that's even better, I've done collectibles in nfs games and never used the rewards

[@ImmortanDan]

@@sahil_tayade I don't care if it'll "make it feel great once I get it". I care about the fact that getting all the collectibles extended my playtime of the game by around 8-12 hours, ZERO of which were legitimately enjoyable. If I was looking for filler I would've watched a 1990s anime.

[@JacobShahinian2006]

I feel your pain I hate collectables so much, especially in NFS Heat

[@maidoll_fei]

In Shutokou Battle the opponent racer are the collectables. I dont know why in NFS unbound there are no other street racer on the map. Maybe put them everywhere then we challenge them or do quest for them etc.

[@buff_daddyclub9539]

You can actually unlock bmw legendary custom by just a glitch by holding left d pad and buying the body kit before it just click select and left on d pad at same time

[@shichibukaii]

I like collectibles because you do them while chilling but the downside for me is that game shows you all of them at once and once i see like 200 things looking at me, i don't wanna do them anymore. In fh4, you needed 50 boards for the free teleport so almost everyone did that because they are only 50 and you required them for a good reason. Idk maybe they can find a way to do collectibles without turning the game into grindfest but they need some change fr. If they show me area by area, i would collect all of them but thats just me. They should focus for the general audience, it should be fun for everyone too. Special liveries, maybe bodykits or irl referance stuff idk

[@TheB-Train]

Theo, you should definitely try the Mclaren 600LT. The handling physics on the car are very smooth and predictable. It might just be the full grip build I did, but most other cars I do with full grip still tend to slide. This car doesn't have as much understeer as you'd expect for a car like that. Lastly, it was overpowered in NFS Heat, and if you keep it in S class, it's also very effective in this game, as well

[@SteveBrandon]

I love the BMW M1, quite possibly my all-time favourite BMW, but only the factory version or the Procar version, every custom version of the M1 in that game is a hideous eyesore. (If they let you put on the classic Spectraflame blue or green Hot Wheels Ultra Hots "Wind Splitter" livery on the M1, I would approve.)

I personally don't mind collectibles, but i hate when they're required to complete to unlock certain cars, or just items in general.

I liked collectibles when they didn't get shoved into your face. Like in Midnight Club 3 for example where you could find those 12 Rockstar signs but you only knew once you found the first one and they also wouldn't show on the map.

[@kingofpassionplusyt]

The Nissan z looks so beautiful for a very tiny car.

[@OvAeons]

I like the collectibles (in nfs), something fun to do with friends. Just drive around and hang out. Last week we finished finding all the ones in Heat naturally. A way to see the map from a different angle other than just drive from a to b, race, rinse, repeat. Over and over. I think what would be cool for collectibles: adding drag races and/or mini street x/trial like challenges.

[@Krisund]

Man, i would love to see something like the derelicts from Payback

[@FiZzSTS]

I had them all collected within 2 weeks of the game coming out to say I had the bmw m1😂

[@vash_dakari]

Collecting collectables for the sake of collecting is one thing, some people enjoy hunting for eggs. It's another when it becomes mandatory for unlockable items. If anything, you should get an achievement, and that's it.

[@R19Robbin]

I think a lot of people think the same about those annoying collectables 😂😂

[@udinthetomato]

As much as I like collectables, they are as fun as trying to get a frying pan from a top shelf only for it to fall on you and it is as tedious as putting my head in a blender. Been struggling to find some collectibles for some time now and there was one more to go and it has been like an hour to find the last flamingo in heat so yeah.

[@frogogogo]

Quick tip: action camera is your best friend, for road racing and drifting alike. 600LT is quite good for S class, very quick off the line and can be built to 100% grip. M1 is equally a beast for A+, but heavier and better for smooth drifts on narrow corners/quick exits. Both suffer at higher speeds.

[@el_chucky_6028]

600LT how good is it

[@prettymucheverything1033]

I really liked it on burnout paradise because it introduced shortcuts and super jumps. But with this game they seem tedious and out of the way. The only thing really tedious about paradise were the road time and showtimes

[@jkliao6486]

More showtime because that is the weakest link of that game. It's about hitting the bus.

[@prettymucheverything1033]

@@jkliao6486 very true. Showtime should’ve had its own events. It always reminded me of “Hotwheels: Crash!” in a way. But the thing I always loved most about burnout paradise was the attention to car damage. Like the roof being smashed in or the doors falling off. And marked man. Ooh marked man was so intense. Almost became my new fav over road rage

[@SubparLoki]

On collectibles, Tears Of the Kingdom just came out, and in that game you have 1000 korok seeds, which are given to you by little forest npcs all around the map. Some times you just gotta find em, and sometimes you have to do a little challenge. And after a certain point (~280 I think) they become useless. And I have a theory that Nintendo added them just to spite casual completionists like myself, who want to do the soft completion of beating the game, owning every armor set, owing a house, completing most to all side adventures and quests, and getting every collectible. Istg I hate massive completion goals.

[@Verystoic]

i would prefer if "collectibles" were like scavenger hunts but in the style of a Grand Tour Special that Jezza, james and hammond have done. Give me specific clues, a destination and conditions i must follow to make things interesting, and have it not be slapped on the map, but instead, random easter egg-like challenges i'll come across by chance while just casually exploring, and if i dont want to deal with it, just let me buy it for large amounts of money if you think its worth that much, because at the end of the day they're just collectibles and alot of the time, cosmetic ones, the game already lacks alot anyway.

[@puffball973]

I only like collectibles if every single one is marked on the map from the start. They're collectibles, not run-around-the-map-randomly-for-days-ibles.

[@tturi2]

they should be less quantity and they should require solving riddles and treasure maps etcetera, and missions to get new clues or a certain stat to be given the clue

[@paulgraham7443]

Its like afew collectibles in GTA Online with the 3 weapons that unlock in RDR2 after the challenges have been completed

[@revoblam7975]

Just an opinion, the collectable are good tool to make players explore, they allow all vehicle types to do Something, the issue is ghostgames/criterion were bad at utilizing their map with them Forza and The Crew meld their maps with the collectable well Forza encourages you by being generous with their detection distances and giving you rough areas to look for, the crew makes them rare but a nice event to do for parts

[@arturjukola2925]

I can say that, developers target also to play the game as much as possible, so aside of story they want to make some kind of activity, but here comes the issue. “How to make them fun?” Is it the idea issue or less time to develop the feature or maybe even both. Who knows maybe it’s the marketing specialist problem, because they are the ones that make risky dates, to show the project.

[@whitefurwolf]

Not gonna lie, the Payback really made things fun with searches for parts and the limited runs (tho the new players could get a shot at it somehow too so they don't miss out on the epic cars like the police ford, M3 GTR, and others) but they just NAILED IT with it

I feel if they're is incentive besides "you cant 100% the game unless you collect 100 spray paint cans" or some shit, it would make them worthwhile. a car or a specific visual like a bodykit would reward you for persistence, make you feel satisfied and let other people see you;ve put in work.

[@JokerGaming-iv1tm]

Collectibles are annoying cuz of lots of things: 1.) They are not worth your time you can spend for example with ur gf or family. 2.) They cover pretty much 90% of the map and it evokes you to collect them all just to get them disappear. 3.) If you are already collecting them then the worst part is that they sometimes are not shown on the map depends what game is it. 4.) Collectibles are not fun its just grind for 100% completion which we really hate. 5.) The worst are in FH 5 in my opinion cuz some of em are sooo hard to reach. Conculsion: COLLECTIBLES ARE EVERY GAMERS BIGGEST NIGHTMARE! HOW CAN SOME COMPANIES THINK THAT THE PLAYERS WILL HAVE FUN COLLECTING THEM?!

Bro collectibles should be one of those "easter egg" things like something out of GTA VC, SA or other games from then, they shouldn't be so massive in numbers to the point where they become a side mission of sorts, they should actually just be what their predecessors were. Easter eggs

[@Josh_Quillan]

Classic GTA collectables weren't easter eggs, they were necessary to improve the weapon selection at your house in VC. Every 10 got you more stuff.
