    Хорошая попытка сделать идеальный Need For Speed. Игра очень хорошая, хоть и имеет свои недостатки. В игре лёгкая карьера, кому-то покажется сюжет скучным.

В игре лёгкая карьера, кому-то покажется сюжет скучным. Да, в нём нет резких поворотов, вообще никаких поворотов. Да и зачем? Удовольствие мы получаем от езды, и сюжет просто добавляет семейной и дружеской обстановке к каждой встрече и гонке. Управление в игре аркадное, скриптованное, но приятное и удобное. Для фаната игр NFS и Burnout привыкать к управлению не придётся. В игре лучшая графика за всю историю NFS! Не плохой тюнинг, хотя деталей откровенно не хватает, могло быть и больше. Игру сильно недооценили я считаю, ибо упор тут был на реализм, и это очень чувствуется: фотореалистичная картинка, в погоне за тобой не больше 3-х авто (ну где в жизни за тобой весь город гонялся?), кинематографичные ролики с реальными актёрами! Не поскупились, и это радует! В игре маленькая карта, как впрочем и во всех NFS после 2010-ого года. Зато есть чёткий дрифт, дрифтить по городу и в каньоне огромное удовольствие! Я очень люблю систему AllDrive (когда одиночный режим одновременно с мультиплеером), очень круто встретить кого-нибудь когда и сам гоняешь ночью. Жаль нельзя моргнуть фарами или "бибикнуть". Игру советую к покупке! Expand

    *the* best racing game out there, even to date. It realy does everything righ, the soundtrack, the atmosphere, the handling, customisation, the cast, which in classic need for speed fashion, can't be too serious, the story is pretty good, fits the game and competing with the Pros from the scene feels amazing
    It also has NO micro transactions or lootboxes

    Really disappointing NFS game.
    The drifting and graphics are nice but besides that, the rest is quite terrible. Grip handling feels really heavy, sometimes it's really difficult to steer. The AI is a big problem in this game especially with their 'rubber band'. No matter how fast and far and how well you're doing, they'll always catch up. It also feels like they have a lot more speed than

I would have preferred to be able to purchase more cars, but I undersatand they wanted us to love our cars and in the end we use one or two cars mostly.
    This game lack of challenge. So you finish the game and it's like you got a glimpse of what it is. There's no challenge at all. Thankfully once you end this game, you unlock new challenges and those are very very hard, Drifting is the one that got me stuck for hours to get gold in some events. But it's a shame that you have to finish the game to get serious challenge. Online is what you expect and finally the cops, very easy, not a challenge at all, no updates there, this game never needed cops and been added (don't know why - "yeeeay we got cops here") - BAD.

Also, I don't understand all the importance this game gives to the drifting part....Why ? There are so many drifting missions that I find quite boring....Ah..and the worst part is the cut-scenes with questionable acting play. The story is really not engaging. Also, I find that the collectibles are totally unrelevant and the police chases are not exciting at all. I'm now level 29 at this game and honestly, I still enjoyed some moments I had with this game...but I doubt I will continue for the reasons I mentioned. That's the first NFS game I played and I think I will try other franchises instead....I don't mean NFS is bad but it doesn't seem a good fit for me....And one last thing, there are no real tutorials for neophytes like me...I had to check video on youtube to do proper drifting.

    In general, I can say that in recent years it has been the best part of NFS.
    Excellent selection of cars, sometimes good music, great tuning. Plus, the game had a small and fairly simple plot. But he, in turn, motivated to pass the game. There was a good multiplayer. The best possible graphics for that year was precisely in this game.
    What of the minuses? Pretty bad driving. You will not

    What of the minuses? Pretty bad driving. You will not pass a single turn without drift. This is sad. Not enough of the very arcade. And the almost complete absence of the police.

    La historia es buena pero hay veces que te quedas un poco WTF por las cosas raras que llegan a hacer los coches, y hablando de coches... Pues no hay muchos, la personalización de prestaciones es buena, ya no es una moneda al aire cada vez que vas a una carrera en multijugador, por todo esto no le puedo dar menos nota que a Rivals.

    NFS (2015) is a game that is good at its core but is ruined by a plethora of EA-isms.
    While the driving feels quite good and there is a fair bit of customization available, those are the only real positives.
    Although the open world isn't ugly at all, it's so monotonous and dead you will fast travel everywhere just to save yourself from it. The story features horrendous live action
    NFS (2015) is a game that is good at its core but is ruined by a plethora of EA-isms.
    While the driving feels quite good and there is a fair bit of customization available, those are the only real positives.
    Although the open world isn't ugly at all, it's so monotonous and dead you will fast travel everywhere just to save yourself from it. The story features horrendous live action cutscenes which include some of the worst writing I've ever witnessed - no way to tell if the actors are any good as the material they had to work with was straight up garbage. Despite the great driving, races suffer from laughably obvious and aggressive rubber banding. Doesn't really matter how far ahead you are and how much better your car is - 10/10 times 1-2 km before the finish someone is going to spawn behind you going 800 km/h and they'll usually beat you unless you've upgraded your car to the max.

    And now for the worst problem... The online component. Make no mistake NFS 2015 is a strictly offline game - nothing about it suggests online play or even a need for an online component. Yet for some reason EA have made an online connection at all times mandatory. It makes zero sense and results in nothing more than server crashes and other racers crashing into you, thus ruining your race and forcing you to start over. Why this decision was made is beyond me and I truly hope whoever made it realised they don't belong in the gaming industry and left. Absolute joke

    Need For Speed (2015) could have actually been quite a good game but EA did what EA does best and destroyed it.

    Need for Speed looks the part, sounds the part, and is surprisingly reverent to real-world car culture. I like the direction Ghost has taken here, and I think it’s the right one, but beneath its flashy exterior it's not quite firing on all cylinders.

Major problem is that this game is online only, the loading times are horrendous and if you want to play in your own map you have to suffer though 2 loading screens, after that you do forget about it because you load in to a map that looks stunning. Rain falling on your roof when you turn of the engine, just amazing. Cars sound nice, driving tho took some getting used to as I was trying to find the sweet spot of handling versus drift. After a while, when you get more cars set up its enough to have your older ones set up only for drifting. The other IMO even worse thing was the money, i wanted to immerse myself in to car tuning not grinding for money with my old drift bmw on a hard drift track that gave 8k each time i finished it. Story is fine enough, i would have gone for more nfsu2 thing, but more in depth. Expand

    Very customizable. Very fun to drift around corners. However, cops are way too easy to evade. The storyline is decently long but cringe-inducing acting. Not a 10/10 because online-only is a huge pain sometimes and it's annoying when random players run right into you when you're 95% done with a race.

    At first, the game has adequate complexity, but then it grows to heaven! There is no choice of complexity, and without some races that for me it’s not realistic to go through the plot, not progress, the game sucks!

    Need for Speed is a well-wrought game, full of interesting features, albeit without many fresh ideas. However, it is prone to deliver most of the gamers in the uncomfortable arms of boredom sooner than later, although it is bound to satisfy the hardcore fans.
