I asked the uploaded about the car model and he told me that the car is the Nissan Tiida.

I am glad the switch to the Lambo happened in the last part of the video. The version with the wings looks really bad ass.
 
I better be able to use the Nissan the entire game.

After all, the cars are about style...not stats.


;)
 
Nice to finally see some vita gameplay footage. Hopefully it stays that smooth even with lots of on screen action :D
 
Here's a new interview with producer Matt Webster. He confirms there will be over 50 cars in the game (listen to that, wicken).


Thanks mate, I did listen to that interview before you posted here and yet I didn't heard anything that I didn't knew already.
 
I really like how there aren't level versions of the modifications because this means new players who want to jump straight onto online aren't at the disadvantage with weaker items.

It bugged me a lot when you had low-level cop players call out Saloon-sized roadblocks when you could have been the one to call out SUV-sized roadblocks. Even worse; being disadvantaged by being only able to lay down a single spike strip.
 
There are "pro" versions. I wounder how you get them and what advantages would you have over non-pro users.
 
I actually dislike HP2010. It has great visuals, but you can super easily drift. through every corner and the only thing you had to do was make others crash and avoid crashing yourself... So much for variety... Probably won't buy the game, even though I liked the old Most Wanted a lot.
 
and the only thing you had to do was make others crash

Wrong. Causing others into a major wreck in this game is much more difficult than other games... but even the, you can catch up in HP3 pretty easily. This is why I kept playing this game since people can't forcefully shove you into a wall collision causing you the entire race (unless it was a short race of course)

I hope the advantage isn't dramatically bigger.

The drifting was easy to do but hard to do right. AOS & me would always beat everyone by like 20 seconds because we knew how to get the most out of drifting. It made for very fun battles which came down to whomever screwed up first or whomever drifted better. HP3 required a degree of skill not many people had.
 
I imagine they won't be, going by Burnout Paradise's pro cars. :)

MW has pro mods. Not cars. BP had burning route upgrades which sacrificed something. Also in HP it came down to what car you was driving, whether the traffic was advantageous towards you or if you opponent was sandbagging just to slipstream past you.
 
I almost forgot to mention that while I was looking through the list of cars on the Vita version of the game, I ran into the Bentley Supersports ISR. So it's not the normal convertible but rather the ISR model.

Actually, in 1 on 1 races, which car you picked didn't matter too much. To an extent of course, but for the most part, most cars would keep up with others with the help of slipstreaming.

Someone I know matched an SL65 with an R8 and beat the other guy.
 
What AOS- said. The only cars that really couldn't keep up were the Lancer & Charger. Besides those cars the rest can compete with each other if you had the skill to push them to their limits. Heck AOS use to beat everyone badly with the Bentley in the exotic tier. :lol:
 
So now the car count is less than 50?? According to this 31 cars are available at the start of the game but if you add the Most Wanted cars you don't get 50.
2. How do I get the Most Wanted Cars?
You must earn the right to race the Most Wanted Cars (from #10 to #1). You can do this by earning enough SP (Speed Points) to unlock each of the Most Wanted cars.

For example, there are 31 cars to find in the world from the start of the game (known as Jackspots). Each car has 5 events tied to it that you can complete. Completing these events will earn you SP which will help you unlock the Most Wanted Cars.
 
Maybe there will be special versions of some cars. I know they have the old M3 GTR & a new version GTR replica.
 
I wouldn't consider the "EA Help Center" the best place to get info, Criterion has repeatedly said there's over 50. Whomever wrote that answer could have easily meant 41.

I love those words, I'll be honest, I completely agree with you. People said "the physics are way too easy/arcade style" but when they lost, it sure didn't seem easy. I've been wanting to describe to them, those words exactly, that it was a skill that was very hard to master.

Anyway, not sure about M W 2, to be honest, I've only reserved my LE copy, I'm not going to buy it until I see some release-footage. It could be good, but when you start to think about it, this could be a game where they pretty much start making the games like this more. & yeah I know a lot of you are wondering what I mean by that, I like games to be not perfect, take CoD as an example, they have been making games for a while now. Were any of them perfect? Nope. But that's why they are able to keep making them. M W 2 is going to be a copy of "Burnout Paradise 2" pretty much, and then you got Black Ops 2, which is completely changing how the game is made. That is what I mean, it's going to be completely NEW to a NFS series. Just like CoD Black Ops 2, even though they didn't "copy" any other game's style, they are completely changing the way it is played.
