Poor framerate and poor graphics. It just seems a step backwards from Most Wanted which I liked.

oweneades explains it rather well.

Ohhh no i didnt think it could get worse than MW. Granted i only played that on my PC, but it was truely bad, the framerate was constant but just didnt look it lol

I'll stick this on a background download i think and see. Is this a daytime or nighttime one?? maybe one day we will get a game with day night sunshine and rain! take off some fancy effects and take a wee bit logner to do that pleaseeeeeeee
 
well i loved it, its seems if you liked the N4SU 1+2 series then you'll like this rather than those who just like N4SMW.

And the framerates on this are a lot better than N4SMW, which wass truely the worst stutter feast to ever exsist on the 360
 
Not read the thread, but for ages I've been saying it'll be a pos NFSU2 rehash. Bet it is.
 
Oh dear, its all gone horribly wrong.

Cant even put my finger on one thing thats bad - it all is! Crap graphics, awful blur effect around the screen, terrible handling (drift races = shopping trolley). That automold thing even seems rubbish as you have no idea what you are going to end up with.

Only slight saving grace, is that when the frate rate is at its highest, which is rarely, it does feel smoother than NFSMW. Unfortunately its not maintained long enough to be able to enjoy it, as its all over the place.
 
Had a go in the Lambo. It didnt seem to want to change direction even at a fairly low speed then seemed to snap into oversteer.

The graphics didnt seem great. The car modification bit at the begining was odd as well, didnt seem well thought out.

Pity as i enjoyed MW until i got to about 4 on the blacklist.
 
\0/ \0/ Hopefully EA will realise how carp the series has now become.

I got to BL2 and then the AI (pc version) eventually totally did my head in. The rubberband AI went into OTT mode and tbh it was the worst AI i'd ever seen. I gaveup in disgust.

I thought the same. It even oversteered with the slow down feature.
 
Just thought of another thing I don't like about this demo (yes I don't like it lol :p )

WTF have they done to the car customization thingy. I mean on MW it was logical on this its just menu after menu after menu with sliders for everything which don't actually tell you what they are for until you start doing something.

Also where is all of the AI traffic from MW gone?!
 
Well I won't be buying that.

Mildly fun, but it looks awful, feels awful and the jumpy frame rate with all the blur gave me an instant headache.
 
I think you all been playing a different demo than the one i played, i really liked it and found in no different handling wise than any of the previous N4S games. Also found the drifting section to be very good and the trick with this is high speed and smallest adjustments, and can pratically do a whole drift around the track without much trouble if you can mentain momentum.
 
Downloading the demo now but not expecting much after reading the above posts...

I find it shocking that 360 games (Particularly EA ones) are still suffering bad framerates and slow down....Early games i accepted it but we're nearly a year into the 360 and still games are suffering from it....I personally think it's now unforgiveable sending games out that suffer such problems :(
 
I found it ok. :)

The canyon duel got me quite tensed up D:


I do aggree it feels, rushed, no where near as good as most wanted either.
 
Maybe the framerate issues won't be as bad upon release. Just like Saints Row then again we are talking about EA. Bah who knows! :D

Ooh good stuff, I was hoping for Lumines Live today :(

Do you no if Lumines Live is going to have the original music in it the same as on the PSP as that is the only reason i loved it because of the trance music :D

XD-3

PS: And do you no when it will be on the markeplace?
