The fucking EA app sucks, but when the game works its fun, EA app 0/10, game 10/10

I basically platinum'ed this game 3 times on PlayStation, it has it's flaws mostly about the AI and the physics but this is my favorite modern NFS (Carbon on PS2 still the best tho)

Get Ready for a Wild Ride... After You Fix Your Controller If you're using an Xbox controller, brace yourself: you're about to experience all seven circles of controller hell. Expect countless community posts, tutorials, and config tweaks before you can make this game handle properly. But once you’ve got it sorted, oh man, does NFS 2015 deliver. The underground vibes are spot on, with gritty, neon-lit streets that pull you right into the world of illegal street racing. The gameplay is tight, responsive (once you fix that controller), and keeps you fully engaged, making every race feel intense as you push your way to the top. And the soundtrack? An absolute banger from start to finish. Each track feels perfectly selected to match the intensity of the races, whether you're drifting around tight corners or flooring it down the highway. It's easily one of the best in the series. When "I Am Rock" hit, I nearly threw it back to my Most Wanted days, but that track is just the icing on the cake—every song elevates the experience. Once you're cruising with perfect precision, the only thing you'll be thinking is 'Totally worth it.' And for those stuck in controller hell—[url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/1262540/discussions/0/2287213008810259844/#c2439210059715065783]here’s how to tweak the config to finally make the ride smooth (this worked for me)

Way better than NFS Unbound. +The signature NFS B-movie feel is here, but it's not cringe like more recent games. Plus, the actors do each scene in one take which is impressive too. +The graphics still look really good, and this came out in 2015. +The story isn't the usual, "You're hired by the FBI to infiltrate the street racing scene and move up the ranks", nonsense. Here, it's just friends doing events in hopes they get noticed by the pros in the racing scene. It was kinda refreshing. +Not to difficult. Cops aren't on your ass like glue. +I did the main story with a handful of events in about 14 hours. After you finish the game you can continue on as well, with a Prestige mode available if you want. +Frequently on sale for around 5 bucks. Now the downsides: -Always online. When the servers go down, so will the game. On top of that, you could be playing an event, tweaking your car in your garage, or like me- in the middle of a cutscene- and the game will just lose connection to the server and kick you back to the menu without saving. I actually had to redo an event that was *before* the cutscene I was watching. Not to mention that during an event I would get a lot of popups saying my connection to the server is poor and have no idea why, (hint- EA).

Dec. 2023

The best modern NFS game. The atmosphere, the visuals, the soundtrack are top notch. Handling isn't the best, but suitable for the city. The map is one of the best open world racing maps period. Tonight we ride.
