    Ah, I love this game, it was one of my first games I've ever played, and still its one of my favourites. I agree it shouldnt have been named Most Wanted, but it was so fun to play for me: the stupid jumps, speeds, and awesome sounds and soundtrack. Yes it had a lot of bad things like the stupid crash cutscenes or no body customization, but I still love it to this day.

    Pros: graphics, sound, music, variety of cars, open world and multiplayer
    Cons: no story, no tunning, no people, all cars unlocked, hard driving in city, no manual transmission, no garages, no pursuit music, no pursuit breakers, no punishments (fines or losing cars) when busted, no money, no directions during races (it's easy to take the wrong track), lots of Burnout features and Most Wanted name.
    To conclude, a good racing game, a mediocre NFS, an awful Most Wanted

    I grew up with this game as well. Got it as my 8th birthday present. Played the hell out of it. One of my favorite games. That was in 2013. Now in 2020, 7 years later I saw some clips of people hating on MW 2012 and I see why. I played the original MW from 2005 and it was entirely different. It had a story and more challenging gameplay. The 2012 reboot didn't live up to the expectations of the original and I see now why die hard NFS fans dislike it so much. I also saw people saying that it was basically a Burnout game. Crash cams and not really much of a plot. Also the Fairhaven Map is the EXACT SAME map as Paradise City from Burnout Paradise. In all honesty I love MW 2012. It was one of the first video games I ever played and introduced me to the gaming community. NFS Underground introduced me to the car culture. To NFS MW 2012 I salute you for bringing joy to my life and an approval sticker.

This would make the game that we all expected from the Most Wanted 2 from the Criterion in 2012!!!

    @JTCF Před 2 lety +3

    As someone who played this game since 2013, I love it. I didn't know about 2005 game and for me they are completely different.
    And I have some suggestions for this game: First, I need increased difficulty. Entire game is so easy to beat 100%...
    Second, progression. Kuru mentioned already that this game has shit progression, and that's true. There is already a bit of good progression by unlocking the MW cars after you beat them, but most of these cars are worse than some already available cars, which is embarassing. Especially if you bought DLCs. You can have a cool Aventador without a roof at the very beginning without going through the MW list! SO what I suggest is: make MW list progression unlock other cars. So when you beat abnother MW car, you unlock (make them appear in the world) some cars. This way, extremely fast cars are locked with progression! And also there isn't much challenge for specific car types (Looking at you, Ford Raptor, my lovely chunky boi). So making some events that are not just bound to the car but for some car types would make it more fun. And maybe add car unlocking to it too.
    This game has great potential but it really needs improvements in gameplay design. And it's my favorite, along with Hot Pursuit 2010.

    NFS MW 2012 is what happens when you tell the guys who made burnout paradise to make a new game, then cut the budget out from under them and tell them 3/4ths the way through that it's not Burnout IP, it's a different one. Because let's face it, from someone who well and truly loves the Burnout Franchise and still goes on a Paradise binge for a few weeks every year, MW 2012 felt like a prototype for a new burnout game, not like a need for speed game.
    You even have stuff like how the repair/paint stations work, the crash cam functions (which really don't work without the damage modelling and atmosphere that Paradise had), etc. It all feels like they lifted straight from Paradise.

    Although many people defend this game saying that if it had not been called "Most Wanted" they surely would not have hated it, to me as a game it still seems pretty bad. And Spoiler Alert! Poor physics and controls are acceptable in any video game except a racing game. Apart from the fact that the game does not give you complete control over the car and less in a curve (or also the lack of speedbreaker mechanic), every minimum hit you crash, a cinematic interrupts the race that lasts about 7 seconds, the thing is that its so constant and the hitbox and impact force is super unrealistic as it can happen to you even with a low speed crash. The way to get vehicles in the game is absurd, since it eliminates the progression of the previous games in the series which consisted of starting with a bad car and getting better cars, in this one, you start with an Aston Martin and later you pick up a Porsche. Besides that if you get a good car at the beginning you will no longer need the rest, so this mechanic of finding cars in an open world at any time is terrible (and it is not surprising that other racing games do not have it), since it breaks completely the game. With only the Lamborghini Gallardo that you get in the first city and all the missions will be a piece of cake. The easiest way to solve this would be to block certain places on the map, as happened in Underground 2 or Most Wanted and that when you beat bosses they are enabled so you can pass, but no, you can go anywhere at any time, it that leaves the game very badly balanced.
    I would criticize other things, such as the lack of tuning, the story, the confusing and bad balanced online or the absurd amount of DLC.
    IMO one of the worst in the series. Need For Speed belongs to the PS1/PS2 era.

    I really liked Criterion's Most Wanted precisely because it wasn't like the overrated Black Box game. And also because it's one of the very few modern racing games that focus on racing and racing alone.
    The car selection is one of my favourites in the series, as there isn't any car with multiple versions (at least, not counting DLC) so every car is noticeably different. The one thing that I didn't found convincing was the handling - I remember them saying it would be different from Hot Pursuit's, but it turned out it wasn't the case.

    My biggest gripe with this game was the constant pushing of DLC down your throat at a time when DLC was popular but not as prevalent as it was today, on top of retail price. Paradise at least locked the cars away , where MW2012 just put them on the map and you break your immersion by trying to get into a car and loading up a purchase page instead. This is where I point the decline of NFS.
