Need for speed needs to stick to its street racing roots as opposed to trying compete with the millions of circut racing games.

..it has simulator roots

I'd love to see a simulator underground style game, with say, real items, and real results, taken from a billion dyno results from all these cars with different parts around the world... maybe in 2025.

That would definetly be an awesome game. I suppose I didnt really think about NFS 1 and 2, to me its High Stakes and Underground that made the NFS series, I dont really know why with Shift and Pro Street they tried to take on the likes of GT and Forza. Just keep making street racing games its what your good at EA.

yeah problem with NFS games is the whole handicap system where lame cars keep up with some pretty impressive cars all from a few bolt on mods. Physics were never that good, so really you would treat it as an arcade game.

NFS Porsche was probably the best NFS game in terms of physics accuracy and the like, I played that game for ages to try and get all the porsches around. Each one handled great, with real changes to handling with damage and mods. Had a lot of promise, they should have did NFS Ferrari :)

pfft... Who needs textured graphics and 7.1 audio?

Stunts FTW

:)

</sarcasm>

Looks like a good game though, enjoyed Grid and haven't played Pro Street, but the original NFS Underground and Underground 2 were pretty well done I thought, considering the hype. I thought Most Wanted was fun too.

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
