Need for Speed™ No Limits – The night essence, decorated with rich colors of neon signs, the scream of powerful engines and the constant cries of participants, nullifies the former calm of the city – lonely roads, only occasionally seeing slowly driving cars, from now on, having received the next portion of adrenaline, gather more and more people, disappearing in the dense smoke of exhaust gases and the smell of burnt wheels. The atmosphere is filled with nitrous oxide, swiftness, to the accompaniment of booming sounds, transforms the streets of the night city, eliminating all limits, instructions and laws – the next winner is about to be announced. Racing project Need for Speed™ No Limits lures players with special effects and high-speed atmosphere, but the user, drugged by the expectation of a real holiday, unfortunately,
The inconsistency in a promising racing project is already noticeable from the main moment – the game history. Watching the ups and downs in the special edition of NFS is not to say that it is not interesting, but everything is very confusing – either they lower the “dogs” on the main character, setting all the local policemen on him, or they call to use the last opportunity to achieve crazy success, in short, thrown from side to side. Although, for gamers who have already gone through several parts of this game series, such ambiguity will not be an unpleasant surprise, it has been worse in past projects.
The main advantages of the novelty from ELECTRONIC ARTS are gaining momentum even before the start of an intricate game story – the menu is buried in iridescent colors, and the detail and accurate drawing of all elements is admirable. Spare parts for every budget and taste are available on the shelves of a special store, and future victories already promise replenishment in the virtual garage. Do not give up their positions and other moments characteristic of the series – chases from law enforcement officers, traps on the tracks and police helicopters rapidly flying overhead. We’ll warn you right away that it’s better not to compete with representatives of the law – in this case, your career will quickly go into decline.
The control system in Need for Speed™ No Limits is surprisingly incomprehensible and only raises questions – users were forbidden to use the gas and brake during the trip, leaving only the ability to tap on the screen to set the vehicle’s course. Fortunately, they didn’t forget about “swipes” – a car can be sent into a controlled skid by moving it from bottom to top, and to use nitrous oxide, you should move it from top to bottom. Where did the convenient on-screen joysticks disappear and why completely change the control – questions for the developers.
But these are all “flowers” in comparison with the main problem inherent in many projects from the famous publishing house – the novelty is distributed according to the “shareware” model, therefore, gamers will be forced to walk around the main menu for a long time, waiting for the special energy bar to be filled, without which it is impossible to do and step. For that matter, it would be better if EA just made the project paid – once paid, and frolic to the fullest. And so, it remains to state the fact that the popular game series is gradually shifting towards the constant expectation and episodic appearance of a gamer on the race track. It’s all sad…
