Chases at a high level game

First of all: when it comes to Need For Speed ​​Hot Pursuit 2 was made in 2002 still one of my favorite parts of the series, and perhaps because I am so happy that EA after all the tuning and motorsport nonsense finally back to ancient times is linked.

With Criterion (developer of the series "burnout") them is also entirely succeeded.

With the new Autolog feature for networking with friends in the luggage you get offered an absolute racing game Pearl here.

Content very similar to the old Hot Pursuit-parts, but with modern additions, the gameplay has nothing eingebüst of its fascination. Whether mutually hunting as speeders or police stops sinners: the high-speed driving on the highway and motorway are just awesome.

Thanks DICE (Battlefield) as a developer of the landscape around you get a change to visually present high level, that the range of landforms almost completely covers and which merge seamlessly.

While some may criticize the control of the cars but very reminiscent of Burnout and really have nothing for friends of traceable drivability. But I as a Gran Turismo freak and non-owners of Burnout Paradise'm perfectly happy with what I get. Just by simplifying the driving behavior and the law catchy (but not quite unkomplexen) control makes the grass and hunt as much fun as frustrating moments are minimized due to runaway subsets and you can concentrate fully on top speed, evasive maneuvers and cornering.

Who wants to please even bite every 10 meters in the controller, because he did not get along with the car and that thing hanging back in the guard rail because of the complex control?

So a lot of content is supplied with which one is busy for weeks. A multiplayer mode which, in conjunction with the gameplay for one or two friends screaming (I can only confirm) and an extensive race in career mode, the abfordert as speeders and cop a lot.

Here some might criticize the fact that many races-sequences are similar and they often do the same, which is also true. But through the varied environments, the complex fleet and the thrilling gameplay I've had very little problems with it. Also, because the Autolog feature to do his part and illustrating how the friends have cut off, in which table space you are in and whether you want to comply with the request to strike a better friend-time, the game still remains quite high.

Very also like the mentioned bus fleet imposes luckily no Nuckel crabs a la Fiat 500, but equal time in the classroom of a Subaru Impreza WRX and BMW M3 begins and only when bombers like the Pagani Zonda, Bugatti Veyron or Koenigsegg CCXR Edition has me stop , Funny thing is that all vehicles are ready as Polzeifahrzeug in fictional designs and you must activate the siren at a speed 350 times well (where there really such a thing?).

Each race will be accompanied by "cool" and "showy" introductory and final sequences that enhance the atmosphere and give the intense race that certain something.

And here for all lazy reader my usual summary:

per:

+ Technically on a very high level
+ Visually in almost every respect a treat
+ Sounds also top
+ Extremely intense gameplay
+ For speeders well effusion
+ Environments and landscapes very detailed and varied
+ Lots of content for long-term game fun
+ Autolog feature makes its own friends to tough competition and intensify the gameplay
+ Multiplayer mode a game fun enjoyment
+ Beautiful photo mode in the middle of the race for their own recordings
+ Extensive vehicle park
+ Super crash sequences and good claims system

- To stop opponents as a police officer, you have this drive in the total loss
- The Autolog feature notifies a to go Events of friends that have been unlocked in your own career even not at all and go back later must
- Annoying in the long run, that each new police unit will be announced during the race as a sequence
- Extra game content with costs and price totally unacceptable (for three cars you pay for 7, ie for four packages you pay for the current match value again)

My personal highlights in the game:

- Driving in the open desert with 400km / h head to head on a 3km long straight to the finish
- Multiplayer race ending in intervals of 0.01 seconds: D

Sure it's wiedermal own taste, just whether you like the control. For me as racing games, the easy times change needed to GT5, an absolute success title.
