Review of the game NFS: The RUN

Good afternoon everyone.
I’ll say right away that I’m a fan of street racing and racing.
I love playing NFS.
And now I finally completed RUN.
And now I can say a few words about the game that I wasn’t really looking forward to.
Featured Frostbite 2, kilometers of roads, adrenaline, racing without limits, realism.
The game ran on ultra without any problems.Passed at intermediate level.On the difficult one I got nervous)
At the beginning of the game you are running away from the mafia in an AUDI RS4.

The first thing that caught my eye was the graphics.She’s kind of primitive here…
It seems to me that when developing NFS they completely forgot about anti-aliasing.You can see the side of the port from the consoles((

More to come.The pursuit of you is carried out in Porsche Cayenne-2 pieces.
Noticed? When they shoot at you from the windows of jeeps, those same windows are closed))).
Shooting from closed windows.
I crashed into them, into their sides, etc.d.The windows remained intact, but bullets were pouring out of them at me))) (well, maybe these are new developments of the military, I don’t know) In short, I sent all the developers over the mountains.

I noticed that on the BMW GTS there are no signs on the back that it is an MZ GTS, only a BMW badge and that’s it!

The driver’s hands do not https://jolibetcasino.co.uk/login/ turn the steering wheel.They are simply welded to the steering wheel which does not rotate and that’s all!
I think the windows were tinted to hide this flaw.
Machine destruction is primitive.
Styling was done only so that we would not later say that it is not in the game.It seems to exist, but it’s conditional.There are 4 types to choose from – uh, not a lot.Put it your way or go through the forest..
And there can be no talk about tuning.

Drifting cars come with surprises.
Before the rocky mountains, a period with long roads, so I took a Shelby Mustang (since I couldn’t win in sports cars), won the race.
The next period is, of course, snow-capped mountains, and riding a mustang there is like riding a cow at the races.The drifts are incredible, I cursed as best I could.
And probably the developers knew that I would be driving a muscle car in the mountains.
And where is the freedom of choice?. They decide for us what we should drive

Soundtracks, I understand, everyone has different tastes.
But remember the early NFS series, even the latest Hot Pursuit.
The soundtracks are varied, powerful and not so powerful, designed for a wide audience.
Usually, after playing NFS, I learned a lot of new artists, and immediately downloaded the tracks to my mobile and listened.
After this game, I just realized that whoever picked them up was probably drunk, or out of his mind, or just a cowboy.And that I don’t care about them.
As you can when racing a supercar, bullets are flying, a helicopter is overhead, two Porsches are again firing at you from the sides, and then a country music music is playing from the speakers.
Wonderful.I’m on fire, and some crap is playing from the speakers.
Everything has its place.In the underground, calm music played in the garage, fast music during the race.
Immediately understand what the hell.Race, no race, plays one sorry crap.
And this is rare, since there is often garbage on the tail, and you have to listen to flashing lights and conversations on the walkie-talkie.
In short, I was disappointed.

The game is as short as the life of a penguin in the teeth of a killer whale.
Is it really designed for multiplayer again??
Or have the principles of creating games changed now?? Or they were just running out of time?(Frostbite still needs to be repaid somehow).

There is one guy and one girl in the game.Yeah, I understand racing and all that.
But if the developers, for example, decided to take the carrier out, then please finish it efficiently.

I didn’t like that when you go to a new race, whether it’s a nature reserve or the rocky mountains, they don’t tell you anything.
Generally quiet.Why is there a race there, what kind of terrain is it, for example, I would like to know.
While racing through avalanches, someone was shooting at the mountains.It is unclear who shot.Mafia or police played?(It’s a small thing, but it all starts with the little things).
The game was made in haste.
It feels like blacks with soldering irons stood over the creators of the game and urged them on.

The plot of the game is similar to a quickly made cheap movie.Stupid, stupid, boring.

So what did you like:

1 sound of engines
2 long straight
3 development of levels, as well as their diversity (rocky mountains and the reserve especially)
4 maneuver in traffic, the feeling is bomb) the feeling of speed is transferred to 5
5 smart opponent
6 experiment with the driver going into the city, escape, etc.d.(I liked the risky step of the developers)
7 graphics (still yes, it is captivating in places, sun, light through the trees, thunder, sky. )
8 Destructible objects.
9 in the last period I drove a Renault Megan.When I got on the subway, the sign was illuminated in the dark with blue light.Cool))) It amused me)))
9 plot twists and the race in general.
10 number of cars
11 damage (primitive but it exists)
12 they did a great job on the dashboard of the car, it can be seen through the rear window.glow at night))

Conclusion: I understand progress, everything moves in the world, etc.d.
But what matters is where you are moving and why.EA’s movement vector is unclear to me.I now began to understand why the game was called THE RUN.
This is an escape, an escape from the past to the present, an escape from the beloved NFS series with carbon fiber and powerful sound, crazy racing and adrenaline to rides without a variety of tuning and styling, busty girls and neon.
From freedom of choice, first of all, to the fact that we are now being sold on the basis of a new engine, which seems to me to be inferior in comparison with cryengine 3 (this is my personal opinion).
Time will tell where all this will lead, but I can guess why EA is doing all this – for the sake of money.
Of course, everything in the world is done for the sake of money, but in this case the thirst for profit outweighs sound calculation and the soul invested in the next brainchild of the once great NFS series.After completing the game, there was a residue of misunderstanding and sadness left.
It’s like when you come to work and your boss says, “You’re fired.”. "(and the only question left in my head is why?).
I don’t know why EA forgot about autosculpt, why they forgot about dark cities and rivals that can be pulled out into a race.
The formula is simple, you drive, earn money, and invest in your brainchild (car), and naturally you need more money to make your car better and more powerful.This is what spurs me on.Everything ingenious is simple.
Nothing stimulates the player here.You just drive stupidly and that’s all!
Motivation is what’s missing.
You know, I once went out into the street without any sleep at all.And no one asked me why, because everyone knew – I played NFS UNDERGROUND all night.
Now I’ve been getting enough sleep for a long time now, my sleep has become healthy and sound.Thanks at least for this to the people from EA Games..
