@Kacpa2 5 лет назад

Thing is that they dont even try nowadays and modern nfs games are just frustrating shit with lots of terribly inferior aspects and 2-3 new/improved features like vinyl editor being smooth and with heaps more of max layers(but awful PC controls for modifying them which should be like NFS World instead), Photomode and graphics to some extendand thats it....everything else including sound is inferior to NFS Carbon and ProStreet, and with gameplay being so annoying it's only good to make liveries and pictures, playing it is mostly going to be annoying and when you get through and max an op car....boring and still frustrating thanks to handling and physics.

@CaptainFALKEN 4 года назад

Customization is not what made NFS Carbon great. You are living under a rock. The cars already look great, it's the feel of the game, the weight of the cars and the camera anglez going down the canyon duels and the canyon duel event itself. It's very movie-like. Manual only, x20 Viper drifts down the canyons, '67 SS396 Camaro vs Murciélago canyon duel, drifting the checkpoint events and races for fun, hour long pursuits like MW, well over 100 cops disabled. C'mon, join the winning team, not the "customization"/"I believe in rubberbanding opponents" team. That time has ended. It's not 1999 anymore. Stop flame-jobbing every car and using bodykits. It doesn't make you faster

Tbh that wingman mechanic (3 types) makes the races less monotonous since you can switch between different characters (providing you with different skills & bonuses) ! Also you get to form a crew with its own logo etc. It was definitely a cool mechanic where your wingman provided you with lots of info regarding your opponents (Ex. if they are trying to overtake you)

NFS Carbon wasn't the beginning of this franchise going to shit, it was the last proper game that felt like a need for speed game. Most Wanted also didn't have drifts which was a huge bummer for me and I didn't enjoy that game as much as carbon, drifting in carbon is def the best in NFS series, it's not about if you win or not, it's about how much score you get. Watch some amazing people drift in carbon on youtube, a lot of skill goes into that, especially the WR runs ...

@stephenmac23 4 года назад

@CaptainFALKEN 4 года назад

Incorrect. Pro Street and Shift 2 were excellent games with great sound tracks. NFS Rivals was a solid game, cool upbeat music, fun gameplay and the most stylish out of all NFS games, or racing games in general, not to mention Yuri Lowenthal voices the "racer" in the original trailer. "You are my rival", directly easy reference to Sasuke and Naruto's rivalry, but only to those who know who's voicing it.

Milestones were a way to make the game artificially longer. Rubberbanding in MW Police in Carbon is vastly improved. Same with tuning. More races in MW, but they are repeatable. Usefull challenges in Carbon Also there was no need to actually buy cars in Most Wanted if you won a car from person from Black List. Yup, you are not crazy.

I decided to give Carbon a try 1 week ago and man, they are around the same place in my eyes. Cop chases, industrial looking visual treatment and the storyline of Most Wanted with Autosculpt, canyon races, drift races and the best crew member ever, Sal, of Carbon. They both are pretty good and I love both as well as "The Run" even though The Run aint on their level

Canyon Drifting in Carbon is really satisfying...especially if you try to do one combo down the entire route with hogh speed built up. Only tweak it needs is to have much higher scores to bit(in hundreds of tousands up to a million territory) and for the scores to be visible since the start

@alf279 5 лет назад

Somehow I always liked Carbon more than the original Most Wanted. I did play through Most Wanted twice I think, and enjoyed it very much, but Carbon has a better vibe to it. Maybe it's the reflections, lights and the darkness rather than the daylight racing of MW. It's a very easy game to beat indeed, very short as well, but the music, the whole atmosphere - I liked it very much. It's almost my favorite NFS in fact, right after Underground 2.

One big reason I like Carbon more than Most Wanted is because Carbon is just shorter. Most people say that it was bad because of that, but come on... Most Wanted was just waaaaay too long. Carbon also gave more personality to the boses since there were only four. The quality of those personalities is questionable though.

what I loved about Carbon was if you did it just right you could push the bad guys off the track, it was quite easy to do with the final boss of the game as that last turn or so was so sadistically placed with the final race of the game. After beating it 2 or 3 times I just ended up selling it. Nostalgia or not I liked Midnight Club 3 Dub Edition more. The only stupid challenge was this one drift race involving a Lamborghini where you've got to switch over from automatic to manual and then you can do it your first try.

@Storethis 4 года назад

IMO Carbon's map, events, track design, customization, multiplayer, challenge series, and visual design are a vast improvement over Most Wanted. The story was incomplete at best, the crew member system needed an overhaul, and the cop chases not being important is a missed opportunity, but I think it really is the best of the series.

@awildfilingcabinet6239 5 лет назад

About the crew members: Their issues only really come up in speedtrap events. Usually if your crew member wins, you’re gonna be right behind them anyways, and when I race I don’t use their abilities that much. They’re very important in speed trap however, because no matter how fast you drive the ai will rubber band through the gates faster then you. Your crew members will try to stick next to you, and so they rubber band even harder. By the end of the race, you’ll finish 10 seconds ahead of the pack, but still only be in 5 points wise, and your pal Neville will have a 200 point lead over second

You need to try NFS: Hot Pursuit (2010), it was made by Criterion Games (the Burnout developer) and was arguably the best NFS title since MW. NFS: The Run is also worth a playthrough.

@BlueflagAlpha 5 лет назад

HP2010 , the last great nfs game

@lordeilluminati 5 лет назад

I like The Run but the idea is too ambitious and I find the execution very dull. If you could race seamlessly and had more dangerous tracks it would be more engaging (99% of the game is straights and wide roads). I didnt like the cutscenes either.

@lordeilluminati 5 лет назад

And the PS3 version is kinda bad because of Blu Ray speeds. It is not game breaking by any means, but it lacks the option to install, so loadings can be long sometimes and it can wear the Blu Ray drive quicker

@naufalprima9818 5 лет назад

@@BlueflagAlpha it's a good game, but not great (but i still recommend it tho). I like the career story in grid 1&2 and how you build your racing team, also you can buy, collect, customize your car. That's why i think that grid autosport feels like a stripped down version of the predecessor. I like how varied the racing in grid autosport, unlike grid 2 which mostly dominated by street racing.

Most Wanted and Carbon are some of the best NFS games ever made in the golden era of NFS. To say anything else about these games is criminal.

This is the best Need For Speed in my opinion. Nevermind the disappearance of drag racing when you got canyon battle and drifting. I also love the crew members and their ability to help you during the race. Also the customization is freaking huge. You can adjust anything from ride height, bumper cannards, wheel size and vinyls. Not to mention the amount of car options to choose from

@tudythegangster 4 года назад

Also you're not wrong about the pacing. I played both of them on PC and NFS Carbon is noticeably slower than NFS Most Wanted. People say it's mainly because of the roads, which have a lot more corners that actually require you to brake as opposed to being 70% freeways like in NFS Most Wanted. That's true but the cars themselves are also slower, hence why starter cars feel so tedious to drive in Carbon but not in Most Wanted.

@hellknightf1 5 лет назад

the canyon races were enough for me to be my favourite NFS when it released, also on pc you could maped keys for each gear so you could go from 6th to 3rd or 1st, and it was awesome, the only NFS to ever had that feature, made it a lot more imersive for me, i guess most people play with automatic and that just puting the game on ez mode, and less enjoyable.

@pingu1508 5 лет назад

How did you change your crew logo to a custom ones?

@CrazyChemistPL 5 лет назад

I have a soft spot for this one. Yes, it probably has the weakest city of the series, yes it feels short and somewhat lacking in terms of events, but it also introduced muscle cars as a group to the series and that was a selling point for me. I also really liked drifting in this one, I just kept mashing handbrake and switching steering from left to right in U1 and U2. It wasn't drifting but it usually gave me enough points. Here for the first time it felt like I was doing it right. Also I don't mind drag being gone, especially its afwully scripted Most Wanted iteration in which winning an event boiled down to memorizing traffic car parttern that didn't change between retries.

@uum6 4 года назад

Love your reviews, but I'm quite biased on this one. I spent an entire summer beating this in middle school and loved it. The game felt hard start to finish, with the boss races being downright impossible. The drifting was so addicting, and canyons were terrifying. They tried to rectify complaints about MW's story being so barebones and, while I hated some characters, the added frequency and variety (however cliche) was welcome. The customization was revolutionary to me. Shame that autosculpt has gotten the axe in this gen. However, Heat has brought us that perfect blend of MW and Carbon to restore my faith in NFS and my long-lost pools of nostalgia.

@Kacpa2 5 лет назад

Its Palmont not Palminton xD Great review btw :v Drifts could be adjusted so you have to do one continous drift down the canyon, i did that alot and usually get in 1-2 million score territory so opponents should have hnudreds of tousands of points instead of just 20 or 50 tousand. Drifting in Carbon has best physics of all series and is really nice to pull off 1 continous drift down the entire track

@HDPew 5 лет назад

Mate, i remember me and my twin brother spending hours upon hours tuning cars when we did not even know what the game was about, our big brother had completed the game so we had all the parts and all that.

I always enjoyed NFS Carbon. It isn't the greatest NFS but I think it is still one of the best. It still fits into era of the greatest NFS games. Some would say that it was last good NFS game but I don't agree with that. It was last classic NFS that NFS used to be. From this point whole NFS took a big turn but I wouldn't say to bad destination. Some of the newer games are good games, at least for me they were - The Run, Shift 1/2, Hot Pursuit 2010 and even Pro Street. But that's probably it. NFS 2015 was a bit of dissapointment because it promised to come back to Underground style but it was just coat, promise that was never trully fulfilled. Payback is a payback... and Most Wanted 2012... let's just not talk about it. Only one that could be pretty great was NFS World, but... money. And the few that remain? They are not even worth mentioning.

@dr.arkhamplays7209 3 года назад

For me it's opposite. I first played Carbon and absolutely loved it. It's still one of my favourite racing games. I always found most wanted not that interesting. I don't know I just liked the vibe of carbon.

@Johnny-ux7yi 2 года назад

''Canyon races are just a spring down a stupid hill'' it's actually a homage to Touge racing which was popular in the Import tuning scene in Japan. The focus on Touge is not necessarily on overtaking but scoring points by keeping a close distance with your opponent in two rounds where you follow the opponent and then are being followed by said opponent.

Scouts are useless if you already know the city. Your crew members will always rubberband to catch up to you, and it’s most easily abused in speed traps, especially with blockers. You have you crew member block someone before a speed trap, they’ll rocket back up to you. The highest I got was Neville winning by more than 800 mph, even above me

@Ecliptor. 5 лет назад

I could replicate paul walker's silver and blue r34 so it's a 10/10 game. In all seriousness I think the game was just as good as Most Wanted, but 95% of the game being turboeasy and the other 5% being either annoying as hell or too hard to keep me playing (final boss events, and the hardest challenges... the fucking lambo canyon drift...). As I mentioned in the joke, I loved how customizable the cars were. Also, I loved how powerful the muscle cars felt (mostly the classic ones), though, I couldn't drive them for shit... If I had to choose only 1 of the NFS tuning games, I'd probably pick Underground 2, tho.

@rosendanailov3238 4 года назад

I've beaten the game with all 3 classes of cars and I've gotta say: I was awful at the game in general and it didn't help that my first run was with muscles. In fact, I lost to Darius seven times or something and I was about to give up. Then I woke up the next day and beat him on the first turn and I was like "Oh, so that's how you drive muscles!". I never touched a muscle car ever again unless it was a challenge and even then I sucked.

Not sure if it's present in the PS3 or PC versions just yet, but in my 360 copy, my car tended to magnetize to the cop cars during pursuits which was the main reason I kept failing the later challenges. Didn't matter if I was boosting away or pulling a fast U -Turn, if a cop was close enough, I was either fully stopped or pulled into a t-bone position. I wonder if this was an unfixed glitch for when they couldn't bash properly.
