2 was a mistake.

>worse physics
Lmao, what? 1 has infamously bad physics, your cars just fly away after every jump

Yeah and 2 is worse for it as vehicles have less grip in general and wider turning circles. Though the turned corolla is gaming breakingly good because it can get up with stupid amounts of grip that it can even beat the rubberbanding.

>worse soundtrack
I'd say it's not really an argument since it all went to shit the moment they dropped Saki Kaskas, Jeff Dyck and Rom Di Prisco in favor of licensed songs.

>zoom zoom thinks showing glorious time capsules of how comfy BK used to be makes this game look bad
Fuck off. NFSU2 was the last good street racing game.

Well yes but there are degrees of shit.

You do realise not everyone disliking a game is a zoomer right? I've had the game sitting on my shelf for (nearly) 20 years. NFSU2 is a significantly worse game than the original and I can justify my position if you need me to.

WHITE WHALE
HOLY GRAIL

Carbon was better than both

SPLIT YOUR LUNGS WITH BLOOD AND THUNDER

People only like Carbon because of “m-muh tofu delivery car” bullshit

>worse soundtrack
>had QOTSA, Killing Joke, Ministry, Rise Against, Mudvayne and Helmet

I like how Need for Speed kind of turned a rather meh BMW into some kind of hyper car holy grail for a lot of gamers

No. Carbon is too short, has absolutely shittastic balance and even more retarded plot.

A duke doesn't stand equal to a king.

People only dislike Carbon because they wanted Most Wanted 2

Based.

Guess someone is taking a stab at remaking it in UE4.

One one hand that looks good, on the other need for burnout underground.

This shit is going to get shut down by EA before it's even finished.

Carbon sucks because there's no neon, that was the coolest part of customization for 12 years old me

>shittastic balance
each car class actually drove different unlike MW where there was barely any difference once you fully upgrade them
>retarded plot
Who cares about story

That piece of shit handled like a brick on an air hockey table

Step aside.

And UG2 doesn't have Autosculpt or as detailed vinyl customization

>each car class actually drove different
Sure but that doesn't excuse the fact that for a game aiming to be about 3 different scenes vying for control of the city the only cars worth using are the muscle cars.

Who gives a shit about handling when you can pretty much gap everyone in the race thanks to high acceleration.

Carbon is literally MW without the bOuNtY padding, kys

It has the best acceleration though which makes it OP in canyon duels

I'd say each class is viable except tuners, those are decent for drifts but too slow

Has anybody tried reshading this game? injecting ambient occlusion to it or any other effect?

Was the Viper in Carbon? And if so, was it a muscle car? Because for some reason, every time a NGS game had a Dodge Viper it was overpowered as shit

And with a crew system that is a nuisance

Only if the people doing it are centralized/making money on it.
If you don't know who to send DMCA to, what the fuck you gonna do?

And I’m sure you totally didn’t start with a white AE86 that you tried to use for the entire game, even though that car is a massive piece of shit, both in game and IRL

I wonder if the people with nostalgia for this game ever got past the stage 4
The game just becomes so repetitive with the URL races, star system and no fast travel

Have a look. nfsmods.xyz/home

Yes, but most cars in carbon had broken acceleration. MW was better cause the cars were a lot more balanced.

Yes and it was the best car along with Corvette

Viper was even more overpowered in MW though lol. The one you win from that guy will carry you for the rest of the game without putting any money into it

You can't even use the Corolla in the career mode without mods dumbass
You don't know what you're talking about

Dang, I wasn't expecting this level of quality on a response. Thanks.

No it wasn't, viper wasn't even in the top 5 fastest cars. The fastest would be the carrera gt with junkman parts and the ford gt.

Vipers, Corvettes and Skylines almost always end up being the best cars in those games I swear

Same with Ming's Gallardo

If you collect all the Junkman parts you can beat the game with a Golf

Everytime I hear a storm coming I hear the start of this song.

Was the Ford GT in MW? I thought NFS didn’t get any Fords until Carbon

you cannot use the AE86 in career mode, retard, you can't even use it normally for quick races since it's locked behind online achievements which only a handful of people can get since EA disabled the option to make EA Nation accounts for the game

The best car in the game is Darius' Audi R8 prototype which has insane grip

Yes
MW and UG2 also had Mustang GT and there were some Ford cars in HP2 as well

It had the mustang gt and ford gt.

The ford GT90, indigo and mach 2 were in need for speed II. The ford falcon is in 3 and high stakes/road challenge.

The skyline is shit it carbon, car has literally no torque and can barely top out.

Yeah but Fords weren’t in any of the Street Racing NFS games for a while.
Actually they weren’t in any Midnight Club games either, makes me wonder if someone at Ford got uppity about the idea of using their cars for street racing.

>fast travel in a fucking driving game
Do zoomers really?

URL races are fucking great fuck you talking about

>driving from the south to the hills over and over for some event and then going through various shops to increase your star rating
People hated the lack of fast travel even back then which is why MW added it

>open world in a fucking racing game
I won't blame anyone for wanting that.

MIDNIGHT CLUB BROS????

They are just prototype of Prostreet and Prostreet sucks

>pick exotics
>all the OP as hell cars from MW like the Elise were smacked with the nerf bat
>remaining cars don't have the power to win easily like muscles and cant handle for shit even with precise steering and throttle thanks to non-digital controls
>eventually have to give up and buy the Corvette anyway to win
mistakes were made

carbon is MW with a worse map and even more annoying police chases when they do happen and fucked balance and a lame soundtrack and half the systems from MW half-removed or just dummied out

There was a PSP spin off NFS Underground Rivals which contained some of American cars like Dodge, Chevrolet and Ford

Because the Viper is awesome.

Are you the user modding RR liveries into forza?

Retard.

>lame soundtrack
I really don't get why people enjoy the buttock MW soundtrack

no, but i think the user you're thinking of is doing it for GT7 instead and he's a madman who's after my own heart

Junkman parts can make any car go fast but supercars and higher tier cars actually benefit from them better since they have better default stats. Thing is there's not really much of a difference, if you were to make a list of the fastest cars each of them are only about a second or two faster than the previous. The only major difference is the handling and people seem to forget about tuning despite the fact that MW dumbed it down from UG2.

Attached: I AM ROCK.png (1920x1080, 3.84M)

Sure, if you are Richard Hammond or something

I still don't get why people hate MW's golden filter so much, I think it's stylish. Not really a fan of how the game looks without it.

Yeah those are pretty much my same issues I have with carbon except I like the soundtrack. I think it has a better vehicle selection but it sucks half of the newer cars are locked behind challenge cars and can't be customized.

It is one of 3 god machines in gran turismo 1 which makes it cool to me.

The racing itself is definitely better in Carbon with less aggressive rubber band , I'm also glad they got rid of drag and brought drift events back

I don't know how but the PC port looks worse than the 360 version.

PC ports of MW and Carbon don't even support widescreen without a patch

If you used Fast Travel, you're a bitch.

Play the battle Royale mod

I don't know that the fuck is up with carbon but I keep having framerate problems, starts off at a solid 60fps and then after a while it just starts to dip all the way down to 32fps.

this but Undercover and instead of drops to 32 its constant 10-20 on a beefy rig.

Redux is better, adds more vehicles and customization.

I just want to get to the event without cops in my way

Most Wanted is a cheesy game and cheesy buttrock is fun, and extremely memorable to boot. I think everyone who's played it will remember cresting the hill before the stadium while hearing SHAAAAAAAAAAPE SHIFTERRRRRRRRRR or SKIIIIIIIIIIINNYMAAAAAAAAAN. Carbon's soundtrack just largely falls flat for me other than a couple songs, and worse, you don't even end up hearing most of it without mods because the races use the specific muscle/tuner/exotic race song so you hear that over and over and all the actual songs go unused.

I don't hate it, but I do think it's too strong by default, especially in the middle of the day. Tone it back a bit with mods and it's fine- disabling it entirely by turning off Visual Treatment in the menu removes some other graphical effects, too. The 360 shaders mod helps too.

I am running the 360 pack and I'm glad they finally fixed the fucking motion blur masking. I love the motion blur but it wasn't masked properly in earlier versions which made it look really odd (picrel).

>playing Undercover
That was your first mistake

Yeah I don't know why it keeps happening, maybe my GPU is on it's way out. It has been acting weird but if that was the case then I should have issues running MW and UG2 as well which run just fine.

A friend of mine has it as his favorite NFS. I really want to play it properly someday but despite having tried both Origin's and Steam's version I simply cannot get a decent framerate regardless of what I do.

MW and Carbon just don't like modern systems. You've gotta hard cap it to 60fps through Vsync (which adds horrible input delay) or Inspector anyway or else the physics go nuts, and even then you get occasional frame drops on modern OSs. It's a shame, but at least it isn't constant.

Oh, I saw that effect and thought it was kind of weird, but didn't know if it looked that way on purpose since I never use motion blur anyway.
