Need for Speed 2017

There's a new Need for Speed set to be announced and revealed around 11pm tonight. 

I actually enjoyed the most recent one more than I thought I would (despite the restriction on car ownership and customization)
 

Also, in their teaser photo theres an R34.

im still yet to play the last one. The trailers didnt sell me on it, but it might be worth a few hours of my time if I can pick it up for under $10

 

this one looks like the same shit-different smell with liquid Speedhunters poured all over it.

I've sworn off Need for Speed after too many time getting my hopes up only to have them completely shatter by the gameplay/physics. Did anyone ever try "The Run" probably the worst physics I've ever seen in a car game (at least a big budget game).

This video was the one that got me super excited and the game delivered none of what appeared be promised... (bear in mind 2010).

Edit:

My favourite part is at 1.31, you can hear the Koenigsegg pedalling the throttle to correct a slide (headphones up loud).

If they had made this game as good as this trailer i'd still be playing it.

I've been trying to hunt down a copy and mods for NFS Porsche 2000. Was my favourite of the series. Most detailed cars, nice maps, handling is very average but around 2010 people were modding it. Trying to find those files now is a challenge though

    • Found the answer: it wont fit without a bit of work- you'd have to change the guards as well
    • Ok cool, because I do have some OEM BMW options for light(er) wheels. 17x8.5 M Sport wheels are 11kg and I could put 255's on them. Maybe that's an initial test.
    • So, in the effort of pulling apart airboxes and testing enclosures to see if this aids in MAP loss at WOT I noticed: 1) The ducts up the OEM intercooler holes from the front bar help IAT drastically, whether the pod is shielded from the engine bay by an airbox missing a lid, or an airbox WITH a lid. Plus you get more induction sound without the lid. Having half the airbox (with no lid) acting as a barrier to the headers seems to help. 2) For shits and giggles I checked the TB. This was full pedal travel. This is actually full travel of the TB. Photos aren't perfect, but there was definitely an amount of play in it and it wasn't against the stop. After much swearing and adjusting the pedal, I realised that the cable is actually too long for the skyline pedal travel to fully articulate it. Having the pedal adjusted so WOT was actually hard open on WOT resulted in an idle of 3500rpm. As an aside, this was also the TPS registering at 3.1%. I removed the above to give the pedal enough travel to actually fully open the TB. I now get a satisfying 'thonk' on full open and full closed which you can hear pumping the pedal as it hits the TB stops (with the bonnet open and intake back on). Luckily for me, the screw screws into a raised metal boss under this plastic piece that is now acting as the new throttle stop. I've gained about 20mm (ish) of pedal travel and I can move it maybe a mm or two post open-thonk before it's hard against the stop. After all of this I did a bit of road tuning because a 102MM throttle is sensitive. The difference between holding an 950rpm idle and instantly stalling is about 0.4% of TPS movement. Will that help? I suppose it can't hurt. I set 'closed' point back to where it was, I can definitely feel the extra pedal travel that is needed to actually open the TB fully. But this morning I dropped the car off at Paint Jail again, so who knows when this will re-eventuate out to see if it helps with the top of the dyno hitting a ceiling.
    • Take heart that everyone else seems to have found a way. The OEM S1 indicators do slot in pretty firmly. It may simply be a case of having them sit slightly looser and nobody actually ever noticed this when attempting to remove a indicator from a JSAI bar :p
