What’s also weird is watching other players zoom around engaged in their own races that you can’t see, which completely breaks the sense of immersion that was presumably the whole point in the first place. But as you might be gathering there’s not a lot in this game that makes much sense.Īnd just to make things even worse there’s a real lack of variety or imagination in the multiplayer modes anyway, with fan favourites such as capture the flag and drag racing conspicuous by their absence.
This is exactly what always happens when a company tries something like this, so why EA would want to create such a rod for their back we have no idea. There is zero benefit to this for you as a player, and considerable disadvantage if your Internet connection, or EA’s servers, happen to fritz out for a second and you lose your progress. Even if you’ve said you don’t want to play with other people. As such, the most distinctive element of Need For Speed’s online features is that it has to be online at all times or the game simply won’t work. As is the concept of forming ‘crews’ and racing as a team.
Maybe it’s the fact that the game is always set at night (sometimes it gets as far as pre-dawn but then immediately switches back to night again), and so there’s not actually that much traffic on the roads, but none of the cars ever seem to move nearly as fast their accelerometers are pretending.įilling the city with online players is also something other racers, including other Need For Speed games, have been doing for years now.
