NFS really needs to go back to it's roots.... unless it does that, i doubt it'll satisfy me enough to buy any more NFS games.
You forgot one thing, the roots are just a bunch of old people that dont work for EA anymore. Now its just a bunch of 30 yr olds who dont know anything about racing lifestyles that are in Hawaiin shirts.

Games change. Big deal. Move on to another series if you dont like where this game is going.

By the looks of it, I got the feeling MW is the last NFS game I own for now.

with MW I got the feeling EA is going the right way again. it needed some improvements and some things added and needed some things back that was good in U1.

I really wonder.... WHY EA WHY do you do it... the community only askes for a few things that we really want in a game. and you can fill it up with everything you want... but no...
a few small things are clearly to much to ask!

I am going to play a real game, where I can tune alot of cars with REAL parts and without a 12yo game style...

I'm going to play some FORZA!

The NFS series is starting to sound a little bit too much like FIFA. It wouldn't actually surprise me if EA Black Box were *too* affiliated with the EA Canada dev team.

I mean, you have some good versions that you go WOW over, like Most Wanted, which had pretty much what everyone wanted. Tuners, exotics, day racing, cops that provided some real challenge (remember the last chase...?) and a full experience.

Kind of like... FIFA 2003.

Then comes FIFA 2004 and 2005, and you see features removed over and over again, features people had asked for never ending up in the game, community getting frustrated and going over to PES.

But! Not all went to PES. I, for one, no matter how frustrated I am at the series, I'm always more than curious to try the latest demo, even if I know I'm going to be disappointed. And what do you know, sometimes it turns out to be better than you think.

I know, and I agree that Carbon is not a step forward. Sounds too much like UG2, they took out Drag and Day racing, and what have they given us? Crew, which we all prey will be better implemented than in Juiced, and that it will really allow for a GOOD online experience, or even a LAN one, and oh-so-dangerous mountain drifting, which some people like and some people don't.

I guess we're all frustrated jumping to things such as "MW is the last NFS I'll buy", and no offence Stig, but I know that every single one of us in this forum is going to try the demo, no matter how disappointing the concept proves to be until release.

Because I know, it CAN get more disappointing, it's the EA we all know. But I'll stay tuned for news. Who knows. We might just like it in the end. Hopefully.

P.S. I really, really enjoyed the way LaPierre shiznit on our faces saying that the polls and community actually act for him the opposite way they're supposed to. Next time people, vote for what you DON'T want to be in the game.
I don't use pwned. I use BSODed. It's less cool and harder to say. I know.

i'm with kid cro...if they dont even give a crap for their custumers then i will try and screw them over the best way that i can...that way i won't spend any money and won't lose anything if the game sucks and i want to delete it...

each one knows about himself!i don't encourage it but...when companies make the same product three times knowing what people want but not giving a damn and not putting it on the products and on top of that,ask us 50/60 euros for it...then i try to screw them like they screwed on me...getting the game and not paying for it and go tell them that it sucks if it does!

Why are all you complaining? like someone else said, all of us are going to try the demo. more than half the people who said they didnt like most wanted actually ended up buying it, so more that half the people who say they are going to hate carbon are going to end up buying it!
in fact, if you dont like this, why are some of you guys members? I joined this site because I am a real nfs fan ready for any new releases.

hey i am from jamaica too. xD i used to live in St. Catherine Portmore but now i live in sucky florida. =/

anyways, it seems like ea is takin things out one new game at a time and adding their own wacky ideas.

first it was the cars, now, they takin away race modes and concepts. >_>

ea is in its own world now. they dont care about what the people think who are actually playing the games but they think they have a monopoly going on....

Well said Flameking. If juiced was a bit maore user friendly(controls) it would be much better than NFS simply because they have real life parts.

Sure I will get the demo, man I might even get the game (from EA) but that doesn't mean I like it so far.
What I see now recycled version of U2 and that I don't like.
At first I wasn't to sure about MW. but when I saw more of the enviroment and the cars (mainly the exotics) I started to like the game. and even though they added some useless stuff (speedbreaker, alot of useless bodyparts etc) I liked the game.

For me, i am sure i'll get the game, the problem is.....that every NFS that comes out is better than the previous installment, but SLIGHTLY better to make you play it for a month at most, and then throw it away. The only game that i played for a quite long time was NFSU, maybe because it was kinda original.

but Seriously, EA team should focus on improving their NFS games more than that, and at least putting some damn real bodykits.....WTF is that EA.... a monster ??

Image

and same goes for the tuners too, so please put some real bodykits and damage and all of us will be happy.

ya, and why does LaPierre think that doing what people want is a failure? " because you need to do something that will suprise them" is the lamest excuse ever.
