    Aunque parezca raro siento después de mucho tiempo que me gusta un NFS. Tiene sus falencias mas que nada al entrar en persecución, ese creo es su punto mas flojo

    Terrible graphics, seems worst than 10 years old Need for Speed: Undercover - stupid gameplay, awful keybinding, crappy music.

    En temas de rendimiento es lo peor que hay. en tema de tunear, autos, variedad es bueno, pero el rendimiento es lamentable.

    After playing unbound, safe to say that my gaming experience is better with heat. I feel like unbound is a cheap copy of heat.

    absolutely don't worth your time at all.

    First: why devs thought that would be cool to make the car drift-steering all? Really? I mean, drifting is cool, I know. But why would drift in a circuit race. You are literally losing precious seconds down there. Just that kills the game for me, so annoying. Second: absolutely piece of crappy music. Too generic, please, give us the good and    absolutely don't worth your time at all.

    Second: absolutely piece of crappy music. Too generic, please, give us the good and old rock, metal. I don't want to read a generic "despacito" while full-throttling...

    In general. Won the first 2 races with easy, but couldn't handle how the car handle in this game (car with soap tires i suppose).

    If you are looking for a game similar of what Forza Horizon is, you came to the wrong place, pal.

    NFS Heat do looks like am mobile game at the final of the day.    … Expand

    at first the game started off slow but once i started to get used to the game and how it worked i was quickly hooked and i loved it up untill the post game which was a huge letdown as i was forced to grind for all the cars i really wanted and i just kind of gave up once unbound was announced and i found out they had the same roster

    Honestly the best instalment in a long time, Hot pursuit was probably the last time I enjoyed any NFS game, Heat offers a balanced gameplay that merges both Sim and Arcade into one flawless component, the entire city feels alive and ambient, night time is my favourite, The graphics are incredible, the UI is simple and eye-catching, the only negative point was the lack of cars, I mean aHonestly the best instalment in a long time, Hot pursuit was probably the last time I enjoyed any NFS game, Heat offers a balanced gameplay that merges both Sim and Arcade into one flawless component, the entire city feels alive and ambient, night time is my favourite, The graphics are incredible, the UI is simple and eye-catching, the only negative point was the lack of cars, I mean a racing game with only 120-ish cars ?

    Pros:
    + A lot of cars
    + Eddie's R34, Rachel's 350Z and Razor's M3! + Customization options + Exhaust tuning + KS Edition cars + Pursuits can be tough Cons: - Story is too short, could've been longer - Soundtrack (day and night) are kinda boring except for the garage music - Same repetitive dialogues post-story - Only modders made graphics better Short summary: Too short    Pros:

    damn it made fun the police chases where very action gaining! but some of the repetitive challanges
    went boring with the time, but after 40 hours i think for my first real RACING game it was a good start!!!

    Not worth even with 95% discount. Deleted after 1st race. Controls awful and crap in garage like - you must buy deluxe edition to own this car, you must buy preorder edition to own this car. No plot just - hey you must make your reputation to be cool...

    I quite enjoy the gameplay, comparing to forza horizon 5. It is much more enjoyable for playing it because it has more things to unlock, police cars chase, etc. The cars in this game can perform differently if I apply different parts. Unlike forza horizon 5, I get the best car, tune it to 10 on most parts, thats it.

I can use it in my entire gameplay to go through the content, because it is very rare to find another better car that can outperform the current one. As for the driving controls, I like this one because I can drift and it's easier to control than Forza Horizon 5.

    The downside is the game only has a few good soundtracks, some of them are quite annoying to listen to.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Играл я без UNITΞ.
    Физика.
    В принципе хорошая. Не симулятор конечно, в shift 2 и prostreet мне нравилось больше. Дрифт как по мне слишком лёгким получился. Даже за самые короткие заезды я получаю по 100-350к очков (состязания не в счёт ибо есть состязания где и 15к получать это целое событие). Остальное неплохое. 6,5/10
    Сюжет.
    Такое себе. Вся лажа в сюжете происходит только по тому, что Ана придумывает хуйню, а гг молча, как болванчик, ей поддакивает и за ней следует. Если была бы возможность выбора в миссиях сюжет, как по мне был бы лучше. Закончился сюжет, как по мне странно. Тип не понятно, что нам дала эта Лига. Я считаю, что в сюжете что-то получила только Торрес. Она скинула Мёрсера и получила звание, а тима гг так и осталась ни с чем, что с Мёрсером, что с Торрес. 6/10
    Графика.
    Хорошая но местами мне не нравиться цветовая гамма. 7/10
    Автопарк и тюнинг
    Тюнинг я считаю лучшим среди последних нфс (начиная с The Run). По кол-во машин не Forza Horizon 4 конечно, но их достаточно. 8,5/10
    Карта.
    Верх и низ карты хорошие, но цент можно было вырезать игра бы ничего не потеряла бы или сделать центр просто плоским, без гор, чтобы можно было разогнать машину на максимум. 7/10
    Музыка.
    Не шедевр, но некоторые треки заслуживают внимания. 7,5/10    … Expand

    I have steering wheel Logitech G923, game does not support that, but you can use it anyway (without clutch, many bindings etc.). Game has drift mechanic which on my wheel is just completely terrible and impossible to do(I had to do story drift quest on keyboard). Physics engine is so weird, with drift you can brake about 200km/h in about 1 second, that's like 5g force, sounds a bit crazy.I have steering wheel Logitech G923, game does not support that, but you can use it anyway (without clutch, many bindings etc.).

Because of weird ways of gaining reputation/money, I was just stuck after 2 hours of playing, not willing to finish some weird drift challenges to push something further, which means it's open world, but not really as without many things you just can't progress.… Expand

    This game is so amazing, and I absolutely love it. It had decent physics, amazing graphics and the one feature that mostly stands out, Ultra rice mode. By that, I mean that you can customize cars with ANY type of body kit you want. Plus, You can literally ENGINE SWAP hypercars. Like imagine a Ferrari hypercar swapped with an SUV'S V8 engine. It would be so cool and funny at the same time.This game is so amazing, and I absolutely love it. It had decent physics, amazing graphics and the one feature that mostly stands out, Ultra rice mode.

    Графика слишком яркая, мультяшная. Оптимизация ужасная. Часто бывают подлагивания. Физика очень странная. Можно разбить бетонную стену на 20 км/ч. Этот движок не предназначен для гонок. Диалоги зачастую бывают очень нелепыми.Графика слишком яркая, мультяшная. Оптимизация ужасная. Часто бывают подлагивания. Физика очень странная. Можно разбить бетонную стену на 20 км/ч.

    Скучная гриндилка без сюжета
    В целом грустно понимать что НФС скатывается с каждой игрой
    Ездить вроде как классно, но понимаешь что тебе надо гриндить запчасти, ибо с недобором ты не можешь никого догнать как бы ты не старался, а с перебором тебе никто не соперник Просто спасибо за визуал и разнообразие машин    Скучная гриндилка без сюжета

    NFS Heat shows a similar problem to me like NFS Payback: the story is no good.
    The NFS Franchise has still a lot of potential - arcade racing is fine - but a better story with serious RPG elements is required.

    Lots of side-activities, barebones story and music that’s very unsuitable for driving – Heat is basically Payback without some of the latter’s shortcomings. [Issue#242, p.40]

    It’s a festival of good and interesting ideas that were drowned in boring grind, features borrowed from Forza Horizon, and reggaeton. [01/2020, p.60]

    Although the story makes no impression, Palm City feels lifeless and the police are sometimes frustratingly powerful, there is a lot of fun to be gained from this game, which offers more than many of the previous parts.
