A bit gutted at how this game has turned out. Skill does not matter anymore, you can be 1st for the entire race and on the final stretch you’ll see the AI racers flying past you at around 260-300mph, I’ve had to start playing Need For Speed 2015 as it’s the only recent title I haven’t played yet and I just can’t have fun playing this or even pretend to. I wish I could get my money back but a loss is a loss. I really looked forward to Unbound with how Heat was looking, I thought they’d definitely get it right the next game and it’d be amazing. if Heat (or even NFS 2015) had Unbounds driving physics minus the roll overs after lightly brushing an oncoming vehicle, it’d be absolutely perfect. The vehicle customisation has absolutely fell through, most cars will only let you lower them by 5mm visually, you can fit an entire shoe box in the majority of the wheel arches, it’s incredibly inconsistent amongst all the cars. An option to turn off the god awful effects would have been nice too, why they even put them in is beyond me and it completely breaks immersion. Just tacky and personally I think they got lazy or they just paid A$AP Rocky too much (he legit adds no value to this game) and just made it a big cartoon to save time/money on rendering. We’re on next gen, we should expect to see next gen graphics. It shouldn’t cost any more than £20, at least it’s free on gamepass so people can try it before they buy it!
