Need For Speed ​​Rivals - Limited Edition - [PlayStation 4] (Video Game)

Customer Review

Actually, I've been playing a long time no Need for Speed ​​Parts more because I honestly just do not can cope with it. Most Wanted gabs free for PS Plus and it played out just like everyone else. Like many others, I would like once again an underground, where you can tune properly and can make his car the way you want. I would have therefore also not buy this game, it was but a gift, so I threw it once. When I in the preamble then Criterion Studios las, germinated in me the hope xD burnout I've always enjoyed playing and Paradise also liked it very much, though it indeed went in a different direction than the typical Burnout.
The few videos and story scraps that can be a presents you enter into the bin, they are simply of no interest and are pushed away. In principle, it is simply a question as a racer or cop, what can be changed at will, to make a career and to defeat the other side.

Graphics: 3 stars
The graphics are a special case, it is better than PS3 level, definitely, but it just lacks something. It's a launch title and a multi-platform hybrid, which simply looks entitled. There would be so much more was possible graphically. Every now and then you get delivered nice situations, for example if you move your blue light through a "snow storm", sees just awesome from. Anyone who has ever turned on high beam during snowfall knows what awaits him xD Unfortunately, most of the graphic moves but on average level. It is not bad, the Burner it is unfortunately not. Personally for me, makes it not really matter, because the graphics are consistent and, above all, the speed comes across well.

Sound: 4 stars
The engines sound really extremely good. From the music itself you get really with hardly anything, simply because so much else going on around it. That's a pity, the soundtrack is relatively fit, only rarely do you get him. To complain because there's really nothing else. What is really a major shortcoming, the camera of the PS4 is automatically used as a microphone so the Voice Chat. Where is the camera? Just directly from TV. The sound of engines roaring so so that the camera only perceives and CONFERS. Did you now 2-3 people on the map that do not realize that, you will zugedroehnt in the truest sense of the word. So please disable voice chat, if you have the camera.

Gameplay: 4 stars
After a relatively short time I felt like in Burnout Paradise. If you head up events at intersections and starts it there. Many had indeed complained that you have to go there specially, here you can just jump in directly. Some automotive coatings appear to have been taken over directly from burnout. Compared to the last Need for Speed ​​parts I come finally to the controller clear. The difficulty level rises steadily, but is beatable. What bothers me just a little, the orders for leveling. You can choose any level of three orders, then completed an order and then one level automatically. So far so good, only each player has his strengths and weaknesses. Time every 3 orders consist of heavy missions that are not one, then you just have bad luck and has durchquaelen, but then what can be very frustrating to there. In the case, however, you can then also a change from cop to Racer, or of course vice versa, perform and stop further work on the other career. Would that be "levels" something more balanced, there would be half a star more. Half a star deduction is also available for the Need for Speed ​​typical system: "bang against something, or roaming a garbage can and you turn to 95% against the driving direction shortly before the finish" In short, it makes neat fun.

Remote Play: 2 Stars
Sorry but that is not at all. Fortunately, the key assignment is changed when you play with the Vita, so you are with R gas and not to the rear touchpad, which would indeed simulate R2, but this does not bring much, because when switching between tracking technology (EMP, nail strips and Co. ), which is operated by Delta, the Nitro (X) inevitably the right analog stick is actuated and the smallest contact rolls his camera. Maybe I have just too big thumbs, but that just happens constantly. Only recommended if you have just one joypad and just needs to load.

Other:
2 things need to be mentioned. Firstly, you should if possible without the Limited Edition. Although the supplied code contains a great Nissan, but the problem is that is so imbalanced good that the first 10-15 levels with new unlocked cars nothing can begin and the stale in the garage. This inhibits a bit of the variety, because you only go by Nissan.
Secondly, there is an app that accompanies the game. With the app you can watch live in the game and help his friends / enemies live or put obstacles in the way. The principle is actually really good. If you see a friend who is being persecuted, it can be the nitro replenish or repair his car or the cops just steal the weapons. It is called Overwatch and turns in the game then new cars, paint and emissions-free. The problem in fact is that it after the release are currently no Android app today, just under 2 months. On the website emblazoned only "coming soon", which is but a joke. I'm still here an old iPhone 4 laying around, so that's not quite so bad for me, but when you consider that Android has a market share of 80%, it is difficult to understand why the majority of the players will be able to never use this app before they have through the game. Alternatively, you can still use Overwatch through the browser on the PC, but this is less than optimal because Overwatch also as a kind of navigation works and the mini map in the game extended sense. I dare to doubt that anyone the PC monitor is therefore put beside the TV.

In summary, I would recommend this game to anyone who liked Burnout Paradise. It's not so that you would have the time any alternative xD The Need for Speed ​​group will be rather disappointed, no idea ...
