Just post any ideas u have about what should be changed about nfs so far...
my ideas: create-a-driver mode just before u start the game, real locations( like LA, tokyo and more), more cutscenes (i mean MW had several of them at the beginning but stopped when u start owning blacklist members till the end where theres just one other)
west coast customs
shareOne word. Ferrari.
shareFerraris are great but those idiots bought the rights to Ferrari for coast 2 coast, right? West coast is a good idea but they already made LA Rush...
sharecant have ferraris due to the fact that they dont want there cars associated with being chased by police.
i would like to see mini cooper with option of chopping the roof to make convertible and nitros and turbo! Old mini vs new mini.
Is there anyone on board who knows how to fly a plane?
That create-a-driver idea is a really good one, it would bring a whole new depth to the game, especially if u can cutomize them thru out the game
shareCarbon has a team racing concept. That is a cool new addition to the series

They should create an all new never before seen car that doesn't really exist in real life. It should have all the features of all the great cars in the world all mixed into one ultimate supercar.

lol i dont think that would work but they could make an option to transfer engines from one car to another like FF did. Any1 kno if the drifting in this game will be as good as FF? FF had bad graphics but the drifting engine rocked so i dunno how Carbon will beat em...
shareThey should have a out of the car thing too, So you can get out of your car.. I really liked that idea... Gives you more of a freedom feel to the game.. and be able to tune your car more... i know Most wanted let you, But not enough for me.
share"FF had bad graphics but the drifting engine rocked so i dunno how Carbon will beat em..."
How is Carbon gonna beat FF? Only in every way you can imagine my friend....Carbon is gonna be hot! I can't wait for it to come out.
full can of beer thats a great idea to free roam and definately one of the best.
I kno carbon will beat FF by a mile but i asked specifically about DRIFTING. it was hot in FF and i dont kno if it will be in carbon as it was in NFSU2 which wasnt that impressive i think they should use a new drifting engine but thats just me. any way carbon will smoke FF cos it has a storyline and really good gameplay cos its the #1 racing game there is and ever will be but FF was also good 4 me...
Thanks man.
The thing is, in the game i dont want it to be whenever your driving around its all loose and drifting whenever you turn, you should have to hit the handbrake and downshift or something like that, Cause' nothing would annoy me more.
Im very excited about drifting being back. I just hope the physics are good.
I saw a screen shot and it may be a small thing, but it botherd me to much that there wasnt a speedo and tachometer, it was digital speed and the Rpms were bars.. ahhh. Anyone else?
I'm sure that this game WILL redefine the whole street racing genre. I mean, how many other street racers have crews, canyon races, territory, etc.? I can think of NONE. And the screenshots for the game are hot.
Fast and the Furious might be good, but I'm really looking forward to Carbon.
Yeah the getting out of the car thing would be cool, and when the cops corner you, you could get out of your car and run from them!

Another thing ias i wish you could pull up to other cars at stop lights and rev your engine and wthey race you.. That would be super realistic
sharePerhaps as a twist, some of those "racers" you meet are undercover cops, and when you race them, they lead you right into a trap.
sharea ford sierra rs cosworth, i know they are old but they would still give a lot of todays cars a good run for their money ........
sharei like the undercover cop idea, but i dunno if theres going to be cops in the game

I'd like the option of creating custom skins for cars through a program like PSP or Photoshop.
I'd also like to see the option of massive customizability in cars, so you could take something like a lambourghini and turn it into a a car crushing monster car or lower a CXT down to the ground and make a big ass drift racer out of it.
The whole "Autosculpt" thing should help with that, I dunno if you'll be able to do the kinds of things you're talking about but you should be able to customize your car like never before.
And there should be cops. Last I heard the "Fixer" can pay off cops to back off a little bit if your heat is gettin' to ya.
but i cant tell you one thing right now.
it needs to have the parts like in underground 2 (neons, seperate bumpers)
i didnt like it in most wanted, where all you got were widebody kits, and im afraid thats what is happening in Carbon, because i havent seen a pic yet with a neoned- up car.
sure the autosculpt is a good thing, but just those 5 bodykits(in most wanted) really makes it less unique which i didnt like at all.

I enjoyed playing all of the NFS games for diffrent reasons, but i think MW would of been so much more. There was a real lack of mods available for the cars and in the end when you have kitted your car to the highest standard it doesnt look unique to any of the other cars in the game.
I think Carbon will make the same mistake as the other NFS games with the mods. If i was to develope the game, i would use for example HKS, Blitz, Nismo parts that can only be used on Japanese cars e.g Skyline and products like Year One can only be used on US Muscle cars. That way the cars will look more original with a real custom look. Lets say they issue a Drift Bodykit in the game, i think a Skyline would look much better than seeing a Shelby with the big bumpers an skirts.
I am into tuning cars big time and to make this game better that the rest i like to see the big names of the tuning world e.g Nismo, TRD, Prodrive, Spoon, Mugen, Year One etc. This will just be another good not great but good driving game.
I hope the Police are in the game again as that was what made MW. Without the police in MW it would of been boring. I hope Carbon doesnt just have pretty graphics, and i hope it does have the police in again.
As for one of the previous posts said regarding "Race at the Lights". That happens in the game doesnt it...its called Drag Race? I know what you meen though, you want a choice and freedom in the game.
Also in MW there where hardly anyother modded cars driving around and it felt really isolated, unlike NFS2 where there was 1 on 1 races.
What we have to remember is that it is only a game with limited memory, speed, data, physics etc. If you want realism then get into real car tuning, only problem it costs so much. The more advanced the games become and the more realistic the graphics appear people want the real feel and look of the dream cars that they lust after.
Well thats my 2 pence worth, thanks for reading my post.

Have the option to replay races, especially in split screen mode. I agree that the story line pretty much dropped as you made your way up the black list in MW until the last once when Cross yells he wants everyone afer you.
share-Bring back the replay mode.
-bring back 'showcase' menu.
-bring back those beautiful tracks.
-I really like weather control, mirror and reverse mode for the tracks.
-give me a chance to save the replays.
-add damage models, i rather play burnout just because the crashes look better.
-make crashes look better, its fun!(I remember NFS2 and when I get bored I just play with the traffic cars and flip those cars until the finish line!)
-bring back LAN party for the PC.
-stop with the stupid underground thing.
-NFSU2 had a replay mode but wasn't that good.
-The online in Carbon in the PC version is buggy at least having an option to host a private game would be good.
-Bring back the modding( I want more cars in my garage and gives the chance for the mod community to show their talents. In NFS 3 and NFS 4 some modders were recognized by EA and are now working in EA.)
-Bring back the 3d dashboard view or at least give players a chance to view the car inside.
-Make the wheels actually connect to something(Show some suspensions man!). Computers are so powerful today that I don't see any excuse in not seeing the wheels connected to the car. (Colin Mcrae 3 did a good job on this and it didn't need a high spec machine to run it! I guess people at EA are lazy modelling the little details in cars.)
Bring back the drag races....

i would like the nfs games the be more like the nfs porsche, but with old american cars, from the beginning of cars until today, mixed with a little bit of those old street rod games, but mostly like nfs porsche but with drifting and styling =) that is what i and many of my friends really want too see in a car game
share"Computers are so powerful today that I don't see any excuse in not seeing the wheels connected to the car."
I hate this point of view! One thing I hate the most in games is that we usually have to keep our PC updated enough to play certain games!! That totally sucks!! I was quite amazed when NFS Carbon doesn't require too much from my system...the only thing that pushes a little bit more is the memory...but hell..that's probably one of (if not "the") the cheapest things to buy!!
Those kind of graphics are good to the new console engines...in PC the suspensions would be irrelevant!! What would you do?? race or look at the springs??
Anyway...what I want in the game is to have all kinds of races in (but still keeping up with the new ideas)...and like NFSU2...the inumerous look features...like neons and speakers, etc!! The game could be bigger...but still playable!! That's what I want with NFS series...that everybody can play them...I played NFS from Underground 1 till Carbon without having to change a thing on my PC...any other game would put unnecessary stuff to build up requirements...and that's stupid!! Need For Speed keeps being a gamer friendly game!!
About people that want Ferraris...bahhh...what's the deal with Ferrari people...everybody knows that other exotic cars are way better!! Besides...Ferrari would ask too much money to have their cars in NFSU...they are too proud to have their cars in a game where all of the others can beat them!!
I WANT A PONTIAC!!!!!!!

77 Trans Am special edition

COme on Any of these would fit in perfectly.

Go back to the roots. I, myself, am tired of a NFS game based on whatever "The Fast and The Furious" was released that year. One was fine but now it's becoming horribly stale.
