Need For Speed: Carbon

[Sethos]

Probably because the game lost appeal so fast :(

[IceBrewedBeer]

Has anyone unlocked the 1986 Toyota Corolla GTS (AE86)? I wanted to see if it was available in the PC version. I can't seem to find a screenshot but I've heard it's in the game.

After finishing the Career mode quite quickly I can understand why many people might of lost interest. There is plenty more to do though, but with some of the Challenge Series challenges been quite hard and same for some of the Reward Card stuff..I know what was quite fun for a while turns into frustration...

The 360 version crashes too :( I think the game was poorly coded...if EA spend more time on making a quality title rather then trying to pump out a new NFS every year it wouldn't be so bad. I like Carbon despite many people thinking it was crap and personally I felt the NFS series was one of the few quality titles to come out of EA (I followed the series since TNFS:SE), but now it's turned into a ritual of pumping out a NFS every year...Carbon could of been a hell of alot better though if EA spent some more time on it, I would of been happy to wait a few years for a new NFS, if it meant it would be a quality game, packed with features and fun! (like the old NFS games were) but that is just me.

Is it worth buying the SLR Mclaren when you have the Murcielago?

[Snakehn]

Well i just started, but here is my new one.

[Dallas]

Man, anyone remember this thread for the first need for speed underground? It was quite a few pages! I haven't bought one since underground 2 though

[Doolop]

need for speed most wanted is the only one worth buying (or even playing) carbon just plain sucks

The game just doesn't feel that fast compared to MW. I'm guessing maybe it's because the races have TOO MANY DAMN HARD TURNS. It's expected for canyon duels and drifts, but others just don't have enough straight ways to easily cruise on. Did I mention that the highway is sorely underused in this game?

I also can't find a way to increase the turning speed in Carbon, so most times I end up crashing the damn car onto the sides. :pinch:

And finally, they axed the junkman performance parts. Arghhhhhh.

But in any case, here's my car:

[PricklyPoo]

Ea ruined the nfs series after they came out with underground....the racing is horrible (I hate the damn blurry effect) And there were maybe 4 tracks at the most just raced them backwurds to make it seems like there were more tracks.

[Liandros]

with the muscle cars, i found that the steering could be awsome at times and horrible at others, i would drift around corners like it was nothing, and on others it seemed like i was not turning at all. i finally uninstalled the game because it got boring since i was at the boss race and i stopped playing because i just reinstalled some old games that i found interest in.

[Devistation]

i want in!

This game has too much glitter...everything is so shiny and sparkly, horribly inaccurate graphics I'm afraid and hasn't changed at all since need for speed high stakes...They managed to do it right in need for speed porsche unleashed then it went down again. The cars are awesome, however and they are modeled pretty well.

Underground 1, 2 and MW are great games, altought, with Carbon, they did like a "fast" job, a lot of the cars i really wanted in carreer mode never were available, and they were just available as "Custom Cars" with no visual tweakings possible...

Im 3 challenges away from beating em all, then im going for the challenge cards :p

[MiG-]

All my Career cars, on 100% Now.. anyone know how to make money when the game is finished so i can buy my koinigseggy :D

I quite a few cars but imageshack just crapped out on me so i you'll just have to settle for my EVO and Skyline, fully Tuned with Race packages but body's left except for the alloys, i think the kits for them look like shite.

[revvo]

Well, I started playing NFS a few days ago and I'm around 35ish percent. I started with the RX-8. When the RX-7 was unlocked, I just had to. I just think it sucks that theres not a single Acura or Honda in the game. The Honda NSX-R, s2000, Civic SiR 2002+ or the Acura Integra Type-S (DC5) would of fit nicely.

Always keeping it clean and simple :cool:

Found this screeny on wikipedia. I want it :pinch:

I read that only the Japanese version comes with the Trueno (without unlock) but that for the pc we might have to download some patch later?

[Dark Ride]

Not "my" car. Just installed the game and did a quick race with the Carrera GT. Amazing car, altho my favorite is the Shelby Mustang GT500 :cool:

However, I don't like how the car's edges look aliased even on max. settings/details and 4xAA applied. Just look at the spoiler of the Carrera. :/
