I think the devs lied about you can customize every aspect of every car. I would not mind the limited car selection if every car could be customized but after playing the trial on EA Access, I am even more disappointed.

For example the Mustang Foxbody has no available parts to customize the front and real lights. Also I can not change the rear or front bumpers. The only option I have to change anything body wise is the horrid by kit for the fox body.

Correct me if I am wrong but does anybody seem to notice that some cars have no parts in certain areas to customise? Maybe its just the EA Access version and the full retail game will have it.

I mean even if the parts don't exist at least the dev could make their own like in Underground series. I mean, in underground there were some fake parts to compensate so people could customize their lights and such.

I really do enjoy the game but for the lack of cars and promising every aspect of the car can be customized is ridiculous.

And I don't consider it 50 cars as 3 of the cars are basically the same vehicle. I wonder what went though ghosts thought process when they decided to include all 3 of the same car (FRS BRZ and GT86)

On another note, the always online aspect is showing its weakness. I was in the middle of a very important race, and the EA servers had issues and I lost my progress. Even if you have great internet, the servers at EA can screw your game over. Hoping there will be a lot of backlash with this and EA will remove the always online aspect in single player in the future.

Quite a few games have all 3 of those cars together.

I understand but many of them have more than 50 cars to comepnsate. For the lack of cars there should be way more customization options. The lack of cars should have been supplemented with more customization of each car.

If you always have to be online , does that mean you need Xbox gold/ Playstation Plus to play th game?

on another note, I was really looking forward to this game but the "Let's plays" on youtube for the career look poor, good graphics but the gameplay doesn't look inspiring. There seems to be no sense of speed, stiff handling and auto gears (which i already was aware of to be fair.).

Multiplayer - Yes
Single player - No

Q) I don't have PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold, can I still play single player without it?
A) Yes you can. PlayStation Plus and Xbox Live Gold will not be required for single player. But as per any multiplayer experience on console, you will require an active PlayStation Plus or Xbox Live Gold subscription.

You just pretty much confirmed my suspicions. Customization not as extensive as it looks and online still as unrealiable as ever.

Glad I didn't preorder this game. Waiting for the PC release is gonna be a bit easier now.

Yep no way am I buying a console for this, it's good but only a few cars have the BRZ level of customisation. Hopefully the free content they add will be more options for the existing cars.

Wow, the cops are very realistic, as seen from gameplay videos so far. They have the same sirens as the police in LA use.

And the speed are realistic. They seem to top out around 125MPH in Crown Vics. Not sure about Charger's but since they're SRT's I imagine they'll top out around 160MPH.
 
YES! Although they say "upcoming" update. I wonder how many "updates" there will be before we actually see mirror functionality.

I sure hope this is only due to EA Access, otherwise, 2015 will mark the first year in a long time that I have not purchased a NEW racing game.

First FM6 and now this? :banghead:
 
I think it was in the beta so we actually got to see it working. I think they are going to make some final adjustments too it to make sure it's properly ready for release (or the day 1 patch) hence why it isn't in the EA Access version.

wow... the best nfs ever we will have soon .. supercars,japanese,uk classic welldone ...f40 finally its been along time since we play classic nfs.. cant wait for it

This is Underground 3 basically :)
Quite excited for the upcoming NFS, I'm hoping it's very similar to the older Underground games, having played the beta, it did seem like Underground 2 in many ways, though the Online-required thing will annoy many people.

It was available and completely functional in the beta. They removed it from the trial for some unknown reason. Probably because of the time limit.
Click to expand...
that would make sense if they did it like Hardline and didn't let you completely beat the game but they haven't. I have 330 points for the game so far. Seems like they put it behind a server that isn't up yet. Which is bad.

Yeah seeing this and reading more, I'm going to wait on buying this now.

Apparently, the code for the livery editor is just not in the game as of now. Maybe it's cause of the Early access or what, but still, gg EA. This game is just turning out to be a cluster imo.

Day 1 update, maybe?

However I will say now after a couple of hours with it, THIS GAME NEEDS FREAKING MANUAL TRANSMISSION! I don't care what ANYONE says, the lack of control when breaking with the auto shift down, the shifter selecting the wrong damn gears when going up hills/coasting round corners and the low rev auto shift is frustrating, limiting, and very controlling. This is obvious, try driving up a hill and see what gear it selects, ALWAYS the wrong gear! Try slowing for a corner and keeping the car in a high rev range when going round a bend...NOPE shift up/shift down automatically, no control over speed. GIVE US MANUAL is all I will say.

Are people seriously talking about this still?

They sound very outdated, honestly.
 
Here's how they can add the body kit/customization options

Have a bunch of interns go on Google Images, insert "x car body kit" and go from there.

But giving a few inexperienced workers the pressure of making a 3D model of a body kit from a Google Image search rather than CAD blueprints is a terrible idea because the end result would be very poor.

God no I'm not saying the interns model the kit, just have them actually find kits that exist that don't have Bunny or Rocket or Liberty in the name.
