But in reality, I think we’re going to have both those consoles pretty much on parity – maybe one sticking up a little bit.

“What we’re seeing with the consoles are actually that they are a little bit more powerful than we thought for a really long time – especially one of them, but I’m not going to tell you which one,” Nilsson told at Gamescom earlier today. Rivals is a must-play for those who loves Need for Speed, high speed chases, and for those who love cars.Need For Speed Rivals will feature better graphics on one next-gen console than the other, Ghost Games’ executive producer Marcus Nilsson has suggested – but refused to clarify which. The game makes the player learn the map to be able to use the nearby environment & obstacles to their advantage. Rivals isn’t perfect but it’s a good game for those who loves the high speed cop chases in the Need for Speed games. The “thrill of the chase” is very present in the game. Ghost games made a good first impression with Need for Speed Rivals. Need for Speed Rivals has its fair share of glitches and bugs. Most of the DLC being car packs and decal designs. Thirdly, the game has a lot of paid DLC (Downloadable Content). This lowers your chance of winning races or escaping the cops. The crash cam extends the time before the player can keep racing. But, if another racer crashes into your car while in crash cam. If you crash your car, the game will show your car’s collision in a crash cam. Secondly, the game has a tendency to extend the crash cams. Shock Ram, which is similar to the shockwave, but is located in the front of the cop car and causes a high amount of damage to the racer’s car.Īnd Spike Strip, which allows you to deploy a spike strip in order to pop the racer’s tires. Roadblock, which allows you to block a road to stop or divert a pursuit target. Helicopter, which allows you to keep a visual on a pursing racer. Stun mine, which can disable any vehicle’s electrical system who drives over it.Īnd Turbo, which allows your car to have a temporary high burst of speed. Shockwave, which emits a burst of energy from a vehicle that can forcibly repel and damage vehicles that are close by causing them to collide with the environment’s elements or civilian cars. Jammer, which surrounds your car with a temporary field that protects it from pursuit tech hits. There is different pursuit tech for cops and racers.Įlectromagnetic pulse or EMP, which can temporarily disable both racers and cops.Įlectrostatic Field or ESF, which can make a vehicle temporarily lose control when hit by a car with the ESF.
WHEN DID NEED FOR SPEED RIVALS COME OUT UPGRADE
The more you upgrade your pursuit tech, the more you can fire it and the stronger it becomes. The game has added “pursuit tech”, which allows the player to be more aggressive to both cops and racers. The police will do just about anything in their power to stop you from racing and that level of complexity is really thrilling. The cops add that “fear factor” to a game that showcases the cop versus racer rivalry. Rivals has the most brutal cops in Need for Speed history. If you get caught by cops or end up wrecking your car, you’ll lose all the money you’ve collected so far. The longer you keep racing, the higher your heat level rises, and the tougher it is to get away from cops. The game gives your car a health bar and driving through gas station maxes out your health bar and refills your pursuit tech. The game also you to alternate between being a cop and being a street racer. Rivals’ mechanics and overall gameplay is very good.
