This bad reviews are just haters hating on a good game basically. The game has both day/night mode, good car handling, great graphics and the physics of driving has always been arcad-ish which I have no problem with. The story mode is interesting and the customization is amazing. Players wanted day/night- they got that, they wanted amazing competitive cops->now some players complaining about the cops being actually good, talk about the irony.. If you actually look at the reviews and decides to play this game, then you're missing out on something that is really amazing. This nfs throughout the years is the closest title that got close to mw(2005) and u2, and pro street in my opinion. I had amazing times with my friends in this game like setting up a party and had a car meet, had few runs in the highway.. This bad reviews are seriously from haters and it's because some people just can't accept the fact that (EA) actually published a good game after all these recent backlashes the company facing without realizing that GHOST GAMES's effort in this game.. Look at LP-RIPPER24 (a youtuber's view) on the nfs heat's bad review.. Just ignore this reviews and try it out, I'm telling you, this is an entertaining racing game that gives you the feel of underground 2, pro street, carbon, most wanted all combined..… Expand

    Me encantó el juego un vuelta a la saga memorable! Las persecuciones son intensas y las modificaciones te plantean una estrategia de como se va a comportar el vehículo cuando se maneja! Es lo mejor desde NFS MW a mi parecer aunque el payback no estuvo mal excepto por la forma de modificar el vehículo que era como para niños de primaria.

    Overall this game is pretty good, while it does not have the best story or characters of the franchise, where it really shines is it's gameplay with good graphics, a wide variety of cars and notoriously difficult cops, however, I wish the cops were a little harder on heat 4 and 5 because they become easy to escape once you have 400+ cars which takes some of the risk it all feel away,Overall this game is pretty good, while it does not have the best story or characters of the franchise, where it really shines is it's gameplay with good graphics, a wide variety of cars and notoriously difficult cops, however, I wish the cops were a little harder on heat 4 and 5 because they become easy to escape once you have 400+ cars which takes some of the risk it all feel away, however in the early stages of the game the cops are insanely hard.

    My favorite NFS game. Mechanics and the whole vibe of the game are amazing. The only problem that I have with it is that the replayability is crap. Once you reach level 50 and obtain the best car with the best upgrades it just becomes boring (which took me a week). It is very fun when you begin playing it. Can't forget about the incredible customization.

The mechanics behind the game bring me back to the NFS underground 2 days with a slight aftertaste of NFS: Takedown in the mix. I enjoy the fact that the developers put time into some small details, while there is no collision damage in this game, some of the small details that grabbed my eye were sun reflections and audio differential of certain sounds. This make me feel as if i am realistically driving into the sun and I can hear my car's rumble when i either floor it or am just cruising. The thing that has impressed me most about this game is the hundreds, if not thousands, of customization options! WOW! They did a excellent job on this! From changing rim type, size, color to being about to smoke out taillights I was very impressed. The inedible amount of options had me stunned. There are not to many games that let you change every part of the vehicle, this is awesome because it lets the user have the ability to make their car unique to themselves! No two cars will look the same. Not to mention the amount cars in this game! Holy cow! Most every car you would want to drive either big or small is in this game! Which makes the auto-head me really like it. That I can drive a Z06 corvette to a Ford Raptor truck. You could spend hours just test driving cars. This is a huge win for this game. There are a few small things I would change. First being the music. At first listen you think the music in the game is good and up to date however, you realize its sounds like there are only 4-5 different songs and they all sound the same. EDM beat with lyrics, or just all up-pace beat. Not to mention I get tired of hearing Cardi B go "Okrrruutt" over and over in my ears. I tend to turn music drastically down or off all together as it gets very very old and repetitive. Second, I would like to see more of a lobby select section of online PVP racers. While i do like the open world concept, I would like to have the option of setting up a lobby where I could race 1 on 1 or with a group of racers on a specific course. Still a top not racer for anyone who owns an Xbox One console.… Expand

It captures every good aspects taken from the great nfs titles like most wanted (2005), underground 2, pro street and carbon. The game doesn't get boring by no means. Of course just like any other previous nfs titles, you have to participate in different types of races to win money. This is really different from payback as the city is more living, the story is more interesting and of course the cops level is really competitive. The ai level is ok, if your car rating is more than the recommended rating in any specific race you're selecting, you're good. The driving physics is of course arcade and I'm loving the new drifting physics. The customization is outstanding with loads of options available to customize your car and FINALLY NO SPEEDCARDS from payback. The graphics looks great. Now, I would want EA to kinda tweak the photo mode a little bit because it's kinda tricky and annoying to work with but other than everything is good. If you just wanna have fun and race with your friends and hang around and wanna host car meets and stuff, this game is a way to go, it gives more pro street, underground 2, and carbon as in general. Also, I like one of the most important of the game is that you can play offline and people who don't want to multiplayer can play offline. The character customization is a new thing and it's nice you can customize your own driver with different sorts of style, it kinda took aspects from gta which is really good… Expand

    For me NFS Heat is a long awaited return to glory. Im affording it extra respect as it's clear that Ghost Games have actually listened to the community. What they've done is taken everything they did right with the previous few titles while completely erasing everything that people hated, and the result is imo the best NFS game since pre 2010.

    For me NFS Heat is a long awaited return to glory. Im affording it extra respect as it's clear that Ghost Games have actually listened to the community.
    What they've done is taken everything they did right with the previous few titles while completely erasing everything that people hated, and the result is imo the best NFS game since pre 2010. Most people are probably familiar with the formula, so I'll summarise.
    No micro transactions, no pointless online only restrictions, no lottery upgrade system, no restrictions on visual car mods, no invasive story forcing you down certain disciplines and no soggy heavy driving model...... Instead we have a sensible and progressive array of performance mods and proper engine swap options, sharper and more responsive handling, an excellent map of decent size designed with driving pleasure in mind, free roam police that provide a great challenge and tangible sense of tension when racing at night, wide array of unrestricted and highly customization visual parts and paint options and the complete freedom to play however you want. Want to focus on the story and immerse yourself, empathizing with the cast and RP'ing as a proper street racer? do it. Want to completely ignore the story and just enjoy exploring and building up your rep and car(s)? do it. Want to drive in peace, take your time searching for collectibles and playing races/challenges uninterrupted? just play mainly in daytime mode. Want to be pushed into precise calculated driving with a constant mountain of pressure as numerous and actually competent cops hunt you down every second? play mainly night time mode.

    No the game isnt perfect, cutscenes seem to drop frames frequently, the difficulty balance for racing early in the game seems a bit off and the cops at night can be punishingly hard; but overall if you're after a free roam street racing game then this is the best entry since Midnight Club LA and NFS Carbon. Easy 8.5/10 , well done Ghost Games! :)    … Expand

    This is the first need for speed game in a very long time that I have truly enjoyed. I tried the reboot in 2015 and really wanted to like it - however didn't.

I tried the reboot in 2015 and really wanted to like it - however didn't. I didn't bother with need for speed payback given the horrific upgrade mechanics. So I entered this game with low expectations - positively or negatively it's been for the better. This reminds me of the need for speed underground games of yesteryear and for the better. I really love the night and day mechanics of the game, controlled racing during the day and street racing at night. It gives the game 2 personalities. Graphically in the Xbox one X the game is gorgeous. Especially so at night with the neon lights, subtle fog and rain effects - it looks beautiful. I'm unsure what resolution it is running at however it looks high - I have noted some ghosting particularly when it's raining and watching NPC vehicles driving over reflections in the rain on the ground, however it's not really noticeable unless you're stopped. Gameplay wise the cars feel good, with plenty of weight for older cars (the Mustang I started with) and better more taught handling with newer cars (the Audi S5 I later upgraded to). The drift mechanism won't be for everyone, however as someone who sucks at drinking ,- I find it really approachable and easy. AI scales well with difficulty levels however I find the police to be too tough. They easily crash your car and have a spring mechanic to them - meaning they magically appear next to you even after losing them. This needs to be balanced better. Overall though, only 6 hours in, I'm really enjoying it. This is by far for me the best NFS game in decades. If you've been on the fence for a while then I recommend giving it a go, but only if you can get it on sale or are able to return it in person if you don't enjoy it.… Expand

    The perfect mix of underground, most wanted and prostreet. The best need for speed in years. Cops can seem overly difficult at heat 3 and above at the start of the game, but as you progress, outrunning them does become easier. The risk/reward of night is always a thrill though.

And it shows in the gameplay of racing around this very nice world with improved but not yet perfect handling (way better than previous ghost games). The cops can be pretty unforgiving at low levels, but if you be patient and practice and wait until youre truely ready to take on high heat levels, you will have some of the most intense fun ever in a racing game! Of course there are problems like a so so framerate and a map that should really have more ai drivers to make it feel more alive, but through post game support i hope this can be a new beginning for NFS.… Expand

    Ultimately, Need for Speed: Heat is a decent racer. In fact, I would say it is a great playing one. It’s just missing something new. Since Most Wanted on the 360, the formula hasn’t changed much. Payback tried to, but never really came into its own. Heat has everything that is needed to make a fun racing game, and it does so very well. Maybe I’m just looking for something and don’t really know what it is. I enjoyed my time with Heat and I’m sure other arcade racing fans will too. It’s a solid game that plays and looks great, even with the little grind that may come along with it.

    This latest Need for Speed doesn’t have any luck-based schemes disrupting the progression this time around, but there’s nothing moving the series forward either. The core parts that have been strong in the past aren’t quite as potent here, and the supporting elements feel directionless and half-baked. Need for Speed Heat is like a beat up old ride that’s still good to burn some rubber and get you around town, but don’t expect to turn any heads along the way.

    Need For Speed Heat is more fun than I was expecting. It's hugely enjoyable, and almost relaxing, to fly down the roads of Palm City. If you like NFS games, you'll have a good time with Heat. Personally, grinding away to fully unlock everything in the game doesn't wholly appeal, but I'm sure to be jumping back into this one, for an hour of so of escapism, driving recklessly to raucous music.
