What would it take for me to buy a new EA game?
• No Origin bull:censored:
• No over-the-top lens flare
• No ram-everyone-off-the-track-to-win gameplay
• No microtransactions whatsoever
• No rubberbanding
• Extremely detailed customization for all cars
• EA surrendering their Porsche licensing stupidity so other developers can use Porsche in their games

Hopefully we don't wind up with another game like Shift 2...Sure they got the engine noises and the looks right, but that was about it. The lens flare was distracting, and it's unplayable on a steering wheel with that horrid input lag. You really need to think ahead to play that game on a wheel.
And EA's not gonna be giving up that license for Porsche, considering that's all they really got going for them.

When i fire up Shift2 i think what a waste of game it is, i mean: good graphics, ok career, nice selection of cars but when it comes down to driving it just sucks big time.
And the fact that everyone complained but SM studios did nothing gives me something to think about future Pcars iterations, from the producer to the consumer i mean, deaf and incommunicative to the next level, even more than PD.
Ugh looks like some faulty game design choice.
I'm not too sure about this; in my opinion EA is not able to release a decent game since 2006 (and carbon wasn't even that much good.)More and more companies are getting in the industry, and if the demand gets high enough, they either negotiate that license thing with other companies willing enough to spend their money or they'll completely give up on that, because i think that the porsche exclusive content might be a little expensive to keep. (keeping in mind that EA risked going bankrupt a few number of times,if you google it you'll find mentions of that going from 2010 to 2013)
Obviously these are only my opinions

Yeah, good point on the Porsche thing. I just figured that since Porsche is the only advantage need for speed have over the other driving games, they'd be reluctant to give up their trump card. But yeah, considering PD have a good relationship with Porsche and all that jazz, I guess it's only a matter of time before EA finally cave or go bankrupt and give up the license.

It's not all about the porsche thing, don't get me wrong i love the full customization of the nfs series, the cool graphics and the sound from the games really give the cars a personality but the precision in rendering every detail and aspect of a car doesn't translate in a precision in driving; if on GT to get a good turn you've got to move the stick of half centimeter on NFS you've got to turn the analog all over and pray that the turn doesn't go as bad.
I just hope that the porsche deal can be fixed asap and don't have to hope for EA to go bankrupt, like someone said before, the people at EA have families too.

As a racing genre as a whole, it seems like there's two general directions the genre's going, open world racing (The Crew and Horizon 2) and simulators (Forza, Gran Turismo, pCARS, and Assetto Corsa).
So I'm suspecting the next Need for Speed will be a more perfected open world game like Rivals or another Shift.

And then a timer because EA wants more money even though if it's not on mobile.
Exactly.

Well EA isn't like this. I think they are more like just get the job done and sell it. I do love NFS but to be honest Asphalt Overdrive is a good example for what you said. Pay to keep playing *timers* and pay to get the cooler rides. *Gold, you can earn gold however without paying real money*
If this carries over to games on home console and PC I'm going to go on a killing spree.

"EA has sort of accidentally had to reveal that Need for Speed: No Limits is a mobile game. All thanks to Ken Block, who is famous for doing elaborate skids.
Block revealed a new car on his Facebook page, an image of which you can see above. And if you look closely you'll spot ads for a new Need for Speedgame on it. This it turns out is EA's first mobile exclusive Need for Speedgame."

Isn't The Crew also going to be getting Porsches? I thought I saw a few images on the internet with possibly some Porsche Caymans. Who knows, could pretty much be RUFs.EA has paid (or still paying, depending on how the contract is set up) for exclusive rights to Porsche, better keep that licence useful somehow.

They're RUFs.

That prevented me from liking The Run and Most Wanted. For the most part I really did like the direction The Run went with for online with their playlists and unlocks. The slow-loading resource-hogging method of programming wasn't cool.
Hot Pursuit was programmed in such a way you wouldn't really benefit from hitting others. The only thing that lacked here was the balancing of cars, menu/options, and flexibility in routes.

Breaking news guys. It looks like there might be a very good chance that there's going to be a NFS Underground 3 and there will be an announcement for the next NFS installment this week at VGX! http://fansided.com/2014/11/21/need-speed-underground-coming-2015/
FYI the employee that leaked this information posted this on 4chan and I don't hear a lot of good things about 4chan according to some of my buddies on PSN. So I'd say don't get your hopes up too much even though this is something that everyone will go crazy over with as this might be fake but the way it was written in my opinion sounds like the guy was being honest.

Sounds like a load of garbage by some troll on 4chan. The number one rule about that site (As it should be for EVERY page you visit on the internet) is you should never take what you read as 100% fact. It doesn't sound true and I know EA will not bring back what fans want. I do not trust EA period. They overhype their awful games and charge you for things that should have been in the game in the first place. Also, having to sign up for Origin just to play is ridiculous.

To back things up. Ghost games did made a statement a while back saying that if NFS Rivals reached 15 million sales, then they would make Underground 3. So after remembering the statement and reading that fansided post, this might be real. I think i've seen more people wanting heists to come to GTA Online more then NFS fans begging for Underground 3. Boy these people are crazy with the heists that they keep posting this stuff on the internet with speculations of possible release dates for Heists on GTA Online.
You don't need to agree with me. Lets just wait until this sunday at VGX and see if this unknown fired employee was right.

Whatever the next NFS game will be (Underground?) it should look really stunning.
As in Rivals Frostbite 3 will be used again but its has since been upgraded to physically based rendering.
http://www.slideshare.net/DICEStudio/moving-frostbite-to-physically-based-rendering
I really enjoyed Rivals and it still looks beautiful.
I know some of you here hated it but I hope they still keep the arcady feel for Underground.
2015 should be very interesting Criterion and Ghost games should have release dates. Im really curious
how EA will schedule the games.
