Need for Speed: Payback

[crack-king]

Eigentlich müßten es die Leute bei Ghost Games können, viele kamen von Criterion, aber leider wurden die Spiele immer schlechter statt besser.

Letztes Jahr konnte man es noch auf die Frostbite-Engine schieben, aber dieses Jahr gibt es keine Entschuldigung mehr.

Mittlerweile weiß ich nicht mehr, was die Serie noch retten könnte.

 

[Shagy]

Glaube eher, die wollten mit Burnout keine eigene NFS Konkurrenz

 

[crack-king]

Dafür waren burnout und NFS IMHO aber zu unterschiedlich. Außerdem hätte EA ja eine Strategie fahren können, wie mit Battlefield und Battlefront derzeit. Ein Jahr gibts Burnout und das andere Jahr gibts NFS. Aber wahrscheinlich war Burnout nicht angesagt genug, was ich schon ein wenig überraschend fand. Burnout 3 war IMHO der Arcade-Racer der PS2-Generation.

 

[Sanguinis]

Bei Burnout ist eher das Problem, dass sich keine lizensierten Karren einbauen lassen, weil das kein Hersteller wollen würde. Man ist bei EA wahrscheinlich der Meinung, nur so genug Käufer bekommen zu können.

 

[AngelvsMadman]

Zur PS2-Ära waren auch die Produktionskosten noch geringer. Heute kostet selbst ein Arcade-Racer genug und die stehen quasi in direkter Konkurrenz zu Openworld-Actionspielen, die dann auch ingame Racing bieten.

Rennspiele haben es einfach schwerer und da will man nur die Vorzeigemarken ins Rennen schicken. Zumind. habe ich diesen Eindruck gewonnen.

Das ist sicher nicht falsch. Man kann halt gut Werbung machen, wenn man den neuesten BMW, Nissan oder sonstwas als Werbung bekommt. Machen ja Gran Turismo und Forza Motorsport auch nicht anders.

Aber ich glaube nicht, dass dies das größte Problem davon war. Rennspiele sind ja irgendwie generell unattraktiv geworden. Bis auf Gran Turismo und Forza scheint ja kaum eine Rennspielserie erfolgreich zu sein, egal wie gut sie war.

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit II

 

[falcon5]

Ich fand ja das erste Hot Pursuit einfach krachermäßig. Was haben wir das auf LAN-Parties gesuchtet... Einfach spitze mit dem Mercedes CLK GTR und dann eigentlich immer nur Vollgas+Handbremse antippen um den Kurvenradius zu bestimmen. Das härteste Material im Spiel: Kaktus xD

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit II

Bester Ableger, unglaublich wie tief die Serie gesunken ist, sodass man jedes neue NFS-Game nur noch müde belächelt... Remake plz, parallel zu Burnout.

Rivals hat auch schon Frostbite genutzt...

[maar3k]

Ich werd mir das Spiel mal anschauen wenn es bei ea Access verfügbar ist.

 

[Benny#]

Haha, genau so habe ich es auch geplant. Bin aber eigentlich auch nur an dem Spiel interessiert, weil es One X enhanced ist. Ansonsten würde es mich komplett kalt lassen.

 

[Lutzke_xD]

Kann mir einer dass mit dem EA Access erklären bitte? Hab jetzt auch eine Xbox aber Steig da noch nicht so durch :/

[Benny#]

Die ganzen EA Spiele sind nach sechs bis zwölf Monaten über EA Access verfügbar. Das bedeutet, wenn du dir z. B. das Jahresabo für EA Access (~24 Euro) holst, kannst du diese Spiele ohne irgendwelche Einschränkungen spielen. Darüber hinaus erhältst du zusätzlich noch Schmankerl wie 10h Trial Access von nagelneuen Spielen sowie 10% Rabatt auf EA Produkte.

 

[Lutzke_xD]

Top Danke für die Erklärung

da es im weihnachtssale für 14 € zu haben ist die frage, taugt das mittlerweile was oder kann man sich auch die 14€ sparen.
the crew 2 ist ja leider auch nicht so der bringer was man gehört hat.

sonst bleib ich lieber bei gt und driveclub.

 

[-MORF-]

Payback ist cool, wenn man rein auf das Tuning großen Wert legt und sich daran ergötzt, wie geil sein Auto aussieht.
Leider haben sie exakt diesen Punkt aber auch massiv verkackt. Man keine Tuningteile explizit kaufen, sondern muss sich alles zufällig über beschissene Karten freischalten, die man nach Rennen erhält. Ähnlich zu The Crew 1.
Wenn ich schon wieder so nachdenke, nein Payback lohnt sich definitiv nicht. Die Story ist sowieso absoluter Mist, grafisch ist es auch nur nett.

The Crew 2 ist ja dieses Wochenende kostenlos Spielbar, schau dir lieber das an.
