First off, with any racing game, the racing action has to have a solid feel. In fact, I was a bit surprised just how much this game sunk its claws into me and did not let go. I used the new Speedbreaker feature (think slow-mo bullet time for cars) to drive underneath a semi-trailer it works well and looks cool, but it's nothing that hasn't already been done in Midnight Club and countless action games like Max Payne.Īs you can see from the 'Recommended Buy'? ranking, I really enjoyed this game. The difference in gameplay feel between Most Wanted and its predecessors isn't very noticeable, though. As I barreled out of a dark tunnel into sunlight (that's right, street racing isn't just for nighttime anymore) the screen was washed-out white for a split second to simulate the way a human iris adjusts to large brightness changes. My clearly not stock BMW M3 appeared almost photorealistic, and the asphalt-not something I've ever been moved to comment on in any other game-was networked with tiny and not so tiny cracks. How was it? Only the XB360 version was playable, and though it was a one car, one track drag-race-only demo, it did look pretty damn good. The basics: In Most Wanted, the Man finally cracks down on Underground's import tuning and open-city racing, so you'll have to outrun your fellow street racers and a half dozen smokies. The game looks and plays excellently, and it's a much-needed change of pace. A complete refresh of the franchise and a nice new face. We'll start by saying that this is the best Need for Speed game we've seen in a long time. But the similarities are everywhere, and that's an excellent thing. The game itself acts as a spiritual sequel to Burnout Paradise, sharing a lot of the gameplay mechanics, of course, all of them are improved and taken to the next level here. While the original Most Wanted game looked more like a Fast and Furious movie, this is more clean and refined. You can still customize your vehicles, but it's a completely different take into this.
It doesn't share much with the first Need for Speed Most Wanted title, aside from both being car-racing games.
NEED FOR SPEED MOST WANTED 2012 SOUNDTRACK SERIES
The Need for Speed series has evolved a lot through the years, and this game is proof of this. This game is all about extreme competition, so brace yourself and prepare your engines. This is an excellent multiplayer setting that invites us to beat the times and best scores worldwide and versus our friends. There are many different modes to choose from and the cranes are extreme and fun, it can be a real challenge to be the best in this game.Īnd there's also the Autolog 2.0 integrated into the game, and upgraded from its first appearance in Hot Pursuit. No racing game would be complete without a nice, competitive, and most importantly, fun multiplayer mode. The incredible multiplayer mode would be the second main aspect of this game. It's surprisingly longer than what you'd expect, and that's always welcome The game features an excellent single-player story mode with many crazy races, different game modes, action-packed missions, and more. The files were not taken from artists albums (he even doesn't remember himself what is the real source of the files, but they're better than original ones in the game).There are three fundamental parts in this game, its nice single-player experience would be the first one. Source files were VladlenCry OST FLAC 44kHz (verified in Spek - slight bump of frequencies above 36kHz to 44kHz). OST replacement info: Volume in importer was set to 105 (the music will be slightly louder, but such setting was somehow the best with these files). However, disabling HRTF in config may give better results with music on (alsoft.ini>HRTF=false). DSOAL config is focused on engine sounds quality - with game music off, but it will be good with music too. Set 0Hz or 192000 (if available) in Control Panel>Sound (revert to 44/48 if you use DSOAL in other games to get proper HRTF effect - not only to "tune" the game sound specifically like in this case in a way that it's not only dedicated for headphones. Copy "OpenAL" folder to C:\Users\\appdata\Roaming (%APPDATA%\OpenAL\HRTF) 5*. Copy this DSOAL package to Need for Speed Most Wanted folder near exe (optional but recommended for better overall sound quality): 4*. Make sure that your Level of Detail is not set to 0 (2 or 4 recommended) and restart the game - It will force the game to run in higher sound quality instead of 22kHz. Copy the files to Need for Speed Most Wanted\SOUND\PFDATA and overwrite 2.
