​@Hydra27 you definitely didn't hear this soundtrack. While not at the level of Ug1, it definitely fits with the atmosphere and it also makes you wanna go fast. Beat of all is that it also uses certain old Nfs songs such as "I am rock", so saying that it isn't good is kinda dumb.

[@WaffleStomper69]

I love that this game had a distinct visual direction that made it feel a lot like what my brain remembers U2 looking like. The graphics aren't amazing, but the stylistic choice does more than enough leg work. As graphics have gotten better we have seen a decline in interesting style since the PS1 era.

[@bobmarley6306]

Same, tbh I'm still more impressed by the graphics in 2015 than Heat or Unbound, the game is constantly stunning and near photorealistic.

[@milkyy4168]

I think I’m glad they didn’t stick with the flooding at night time aesthetic, it would get very tiring if every installment looked the same, but slightly better. I think the visual direction changes they took with later installments was good

[@Weekndautoenthusiast]

I enjoyed 2015 ! Handling was odd but I could manage it maybe 80% of the time. I loved the night only racing. I liked the cheesy cutscenes. I wish the game was less “happy” though. They had a great opportunity to make a darker story line which would’ve matched the game more . Overall I think it’ll stay one of my top 5 NFS games .

[@purwantiallan5089]

For me top 10 despite being online only.

[@tedioussugar384]

I actually liked the drifting, it was the damn time attack events that were impossible. One lap the AI were 5 seconds behind my fastest time, the next they go 8 seconds faster than me. I took every shortcut under the lack of a sun, often ended up pushing the car to the limits of the road, and still got screwed over plenty of times.

[@STRIDER_503]

It's supposed to be a game to demonstrate "underground car culture" but I think they lost their way during the development.

[@wickedspank]

Yeah, it really felt like the story was going to take a bit of a darker turn. If nothing else, there was some jealousy issues between a couple of the characters that I thought was gonna get fleshed out, but there were some other twists I was expecting that never happened. The story just...ended. As far as the story being cheesy and cringe, let's be real, the scene can be cheesy and cringe sometimes. I feel that just added to the realism that this game nailed.

[@WelderB1Family]

Drifting killed this game!!! I never finished the game because the drifting was the last thing I needed to do.

[@umutcolak1876]

You can tune it to grip

[@wulfwolf3663]

Try drift setup with grip tires

[@wulfwolf3663]

Or look a tutorial

[@KuruHS]

haha yea i hated it to hell

[@WaffleStomper69]

Eh I liked the drifting. I just wish there was a more distinct difference between drift races and regular races like the old Underground games.

[@LardoAG]

Removing BTD like Unite does will always be slower than stock handling, and it's an inherent issue with the game: when you exit the drift, you get an instant speed boost, that's equal to the speed you entered the drift with. Since this mechanic is gone with BTD disabled, it means that gripping will always be slower, because then the car will accelerate normally at the corner exit. That's why starter cars with no BTD are too slow, the game is basically built around vanilla BTD, which is essentially cheating.

[@KuruHS]

That’s indeed why Remastered works so much better in this game!

[@Mokoccchi]

Game was absolutely beautiful even now it's perfect screenshot material. With good event variety, all it needed was fun driving physics and these mods both handle that. May draw strange reactions but I think that modded 2015 is the best Need for Speed since black box died. I still remember being absolutely peeved on release when in my eyes the game was incredibly cool to experience but you simply couldn't enjoy actually playing it with the Ghost handling. Great to see how they saved it.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Saved it from being total disaster due to always online only?

[@calamityyy]

The fact that this game is nearing 10 years of existing is crazy

[@dezpotizmOFheaven]

Drift events were what I liked most about this game. And in my opinion it was super easy to drift.

[@sudihoops]

same... idk why is everyone going on about handling and drifting, it was the best here out of the latest nfs titles

[@bryanlenihan5012]

​@@sudihoopsTHANK YOU

[@JaNieWie]

I believe the physics are not fixable because of an engine the game is run on. It's Frostbite, which is for FPS games. Same situation as with Payday 2, which is run on Diesel Engine designed under racing games.

[@danielgriffin3169]

I fell in love with this game entirely. Even how the cars handled and drifted. I thought the mechanics were smooth and easy to play with

[@miruharabae]

Yeah, drifting is honestly pretty satisfying to me & easy. However, it's not consistent since it depends on the car because a lot of the cars are God awful. But with cars such as the FD & R32 it feels so good to drift.

[@DaRealDevoly]

The handling from the Remaster Mod really looks the way how Heat handling feels. Maybe i try it out in some time. Appreciate your comparison 🤗

[@Filipe1020]

The lighting and ambient colors from the Remastered mod gives me a lot of Underground 2 vibes, I like it.

[@xSpicySaltx]

I was only 15 when this game was finally revealed . Saw the teaser trailer ofc, & i was like holy cow, The illegal atmosphere is back, but when i realized how broken it was, im like damn

[@rpxghosty2788]

When I first played this game I got really into it and grinded out the content and new content, trying new cars, waiting for updates. I ended up getting bored of grinding the drift races and uninstalled it a few years ago, a year ago I tried it again and uninstalled again.

[@randomfaca]

edit: apparently I didn't play the latest version if you spend about 10 minutes in the tuning menu for your car with the Unite mod you can dial it pretty darn well. Once I did that the game was an utter cake walk, especially the drift events since it was so easy to hold long slides. Unites biggest issue for me was the AI didn't get a boost in speed to make up for the player being faster with the mod

[@nicolae-alexandruluca7853]

Indeed, nfs heat suffers from the same issue, fully upgraded vehicles that can also corner very well given the semi slick racing tires that are insane in cornering makes 1,2,3,4 even 5km distance from the 2nd place quite easy to achieve even in the 400 race events

[@Danteska90]

The handling looks so much smoother with the Remastered mod than in Unite.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Agree. The Unite Mod still has problems tho.

[@crash4267]

​@purwantiallan5089 I think it's because NFS 2015 is made for BTD, So like adding Forza Horizon into this game doesn't really fit

[@PatalJunior]

The race is doable quite easy if you get the good tires and suspension. The handbrake, you need to get the adjustable one and make it stronger so it actually does something, the weaker handbrake is good for transitions of drift.

[@klyvemercado2001]

My favorite thing so far going into this with the NFS modding community, is how you’re allowed to select which mods you want on and off at the same time. So I’ve been playing the game with UNITE physics with Remastered graphics

[@K3ntucky123]

One problem about this game is there are less race events and more drift events, basically the game focused on drifting rather than racing because I can tell they do this on purpose so that the player can experience the new handling model, but it failed.

[@purwantiallan5089]

Yep. And also online only game that ruined everything literally.

[@jamesbolho]

Well, let's get to it then, Remastered it is! Thank you for this Kuru!

[@snaky115]

I remember doing the 10 hour trial without paying for anything and man.. I dunno what happened back then, but my r9 280x struggled to run it so after an hour of 20-28 FPS i surrendered.

[@KuruHS]

Early-release optimization is sometimes quite awful... ~mrxbas

[@KevinZetto]

I remember waiting for this game, even took a week off, I was hyped, got it, played it for 4 hours and returned it, it was just so bad..

[@n1j1nidzo87]

Now I kinda want to give the game a chance since i never played it

[@tarouou4988]

Same. If only my PS4 didn't die, I woulda tried it lol

[@LaendonCaelum]

I have to say Kuru, I hated NFS 2015 when it came out, it took 3 years alright, but I learned to love this game, I've had some experience with Burnout Paradise drifting and realised it wasn't much of a difference, I kinda like it now. And I gotta say, 2015 is the best looking NFS game ever by far, and I've played Payback, Heat and Undound, somehow they look really crappy except for the cars. Ghost games nailed in overall aesthetics, setting and feeling, you can simply park your car, turn your engine off and listen to the rain and sometimes the other AI racers fleeing from the cops, it's just magnificent.

[@Denniz69]

Is one of that mods an offline mode mod? Or is any available for that game?

[@BLLACKSTTAR]

I seem to remember the main conplaint I heard for the handling was the random twitching at highs speeds. Like brother, you try going 250 on a public road and see just how much work you gotta put in to make the car stay straight over all the bumps and dips.

[@nicolae-alexandruluca7853]

It's not just twitching, downforce is insane in the mods that and also steering delay, nfs payback unite 1.0 had this issue and I absolutely hated it, racing was a nono for me especially after hitting 300km/h or 180mp/h the delay was half a second, it made racing impossible

[@DatOneCat]

My first honest experience with the game was me enjoying it. However, it was only after giving it a solid month or two of playtime where I started noticing all the flaws after the initial magic wore off. From the always online requirement, weird physics and collision bugs, and the awkward handling at times amongst other things. I gave up on the game after getting the cars I want and maximizing their performance. Still, it was fun though when I discovered that the 32 Ford in the game has a weird physics bug where in if you drift in a circle for a good while and exit it, your car will gain rocket speed.

[@210djdephboi93]

This was the perfect atmosphere for underground 3 but with a better story line and outrageous customization options for everything. We deserve underground 3 already. Come on EA you know we want it.

[@Freezorgium]

Can I pick-and-choose the features? I like the crash cutscenes because, in any game, I always try to prioritize not crashing over being fast. I like it when there's a severe penalty for crashing into traffic.

[@Marcos42563]

Same! As someone who used to play the golden age BB NFS games, and now alternates between NFS 2015, FH4, and BeamNG, I really like the crash cutscenes. I mean the whole game's physics are based around not hitting walls - especially with the focus on drift events - so it fits in with the general design philosophy, too. In general, whenever I touch a wall and the game doesn't crash me, I consider it forgiving, rather than considering the times where it does crash me as punishing.

[@Kipsell]

somehow I really like the drifting of 2015, its far from realistic but it feels great

[@xsct878]

Feels like dogshit

[@SpiderMax95]

biggest gripe with NFS since 2015 was always how slow and heavy everything felt amd how little control the player has over the car, especially in comparison to Forza horizon which was still fun back then, unlike nowadays... i will check out remastered once baldurs gate loosens its addictive grip over me 😅

[@jackle-ko2wm]

can you still play with friends with the remastered mod?

[@AR3Q]

This was Unite or Unite 2.0? Cause in the 2nd version the Grip is a bit faster I think that Drift setup. I had a RX-7 for grip and it was a beast. The problem is in the Drift events with cops. You can't ever outrun them, as even small contact with them spins you out.

[@KuruHS]

The UNITE version was 2.0. ~mrxbas

[@mrjones4085]

This game was really fun back then when i played it in 2017... until I started to fall through the map while going really fast. That was when i played it on an HDD in my laptop. Got a new PC with SSD. Same thing happened. That really turned me off from the game completely, despite the beautiful graphics.

My biggest question is: any of this mods fix the delayed steering that simulates you turning the wheel? Cause that's the worst thing EA didn't fix in any of the NFSs since Rivals and it makes the game terrible in keyboard and gamepad

Sorry but I don't agree that it "doesn't matter that you pull the regular brake to drift" The problem with that is, you can't just normally brake anymore. It removes actual skill from using proper braking etiquette for racing. Same with the nonsense that Heat had, where you tap the gas twice to initiate a drift, meaning that every time I let go of the gas to follow the corner and then press the gas again halfway through, suddenly I drift without wanting to Drifting should only ever be initiated via handbrake, weight shift or if they want, via kicking the clutch to temporarily raise the RPMs which in turn makes the tires lose traction when they suddenly have to spin way faster after you let go of the clutch Brake and Throttle should just do that, either slow the car down or speed it up.
