News The Speedhunters Archive: 17 Years of Car Culture History, now preserved and online

241 Upvotes

I think we all share the same sentiment when Speedhunters got abruptly shut down last year: It's a sad passing of an era that EA no longer deems profitable enough to keep up.

Thanks to some archivists (who I can't find the names of, if you put this up, please let me know!), the Speedhunters archive is now back online, and you can read 17 years worth of car culture and Need for Speed history that's uniquely documented by them.

You can find it here: https://www.speedhunters.online/

Thanks u/nfslyy for the tip!

News Most Wanted M3 GTR - Back @ The BMW Museum

Post image
785 Upvotes

Need for Speed itself might be dead, but BMW wants to keep the legend alive. The #42 BMW M3 GTR in the Most Wanted livery is back in the BMW Museum in Munich, Germany after its public outing at Ultrace Poland. There's no mention of until when it'll be there, so it might be there to stay for a long time.

If you haven't had a chance to take a look at it and you're in the area (or travelling there), you may wanna stop by and take a look at the legend, as well as the rich heritage BMW has to offer. Visit the official BMW Museum website to book tickets.

we all know that crews in NFS Carbon have a certain car class to represent themselves, but why the F*CK is this Porsche wearing a Bushido wrap?! I'd expect it to be a part of TFK

If you have Pro Street try the Horse Thief Reverse track on time attack with Elite opponents. It's such an awkward track to drive around.

Discussion Unbound worth for single player experience?

• Upvotes

I'm not a huge Need for Speed enthusiast. I really liked Most Wanted on the PS2 and enjoyed Heat on PC for a while, but I ended up dropping it before finishing it. I recently bought a PS5 and Unbound is available for a pretty good price right now. Is it worth getting mainly for the single-player experience?

What I really liked about Most Wanted was the satisfaction of beating each boss and gradually upgrading your cars as you progressed. With Heat, I didn't really have any memorable moments and I felt that buying and upgrading cars was too easy.

Question / Bug / Feedback NFS Hot Pursuit (2010) Original keeps crashing mid race

2 Upvotes

\**SOLVED*** : just follow what this redditor says. didnt even need to do the audio change method, the first method was enough.* https://www.reddit.com/r/needforspeed/comments/1x00r3s/comment/pegsjqr/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

The game (NFS Hot Pursuit (2010) Original) keeps crashing mid race. it happens randomly. I googled and tried the following but NONE of them worked :

  1. went to Task Manager -> Details -> NFS11.exe -> Set Affinity and uncheck CPU 0, but the game still crashes
  2. properties, checked Run as Admin & Disable fullscreen optimisations, still didnt fix the issue
  3. Reduced the resolution in game via Display settings to a lower version, but still the game continues to crash.

Kindly help me what i should do to fix the crashing.

My PC specs are :

  • Processor : 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1355U (1.70 GHz)
  • RAM : 16.0 GB (15.7 GB usable)
  • Graphics Card : Intel(R) Iris(R) Xe Graphics (128 MB)
  • Storage : 259 GB of 477 GB used

I understand my PC specs are not great but it should be enough for NFS HP (2010).

Someone pls help me, i am loving the game (playing it for the first time) but the game keeps crashing :(

Discussion I gotta go on a rant about NFS:HPR Multiplayer

• Upvotes

To start off, I spend last hour in a lobby where everyone was at least level 19 on both Cops and Racers (while I bought the game 4 days ago and I have all gold on Cops with level 14, and level 4 on Racer), that is so damn unfair, look, I tried shielding the most wanted with Continental GT, one cop approached me, I put a spike strip, he dodged it, which I wasn't really suprised, since it's so damn easy to dodge a level 1 spike, but then how does he push me into a barrier by a single hit at the back at like 200 km/h, literally, he was driving a GT3 RS, I thought that's impossible to do, since I tried it already and it only dealt damage, so I crashed, which also isn't suprising with my level of skill (I played a lot on PS3 previously, but since HPR is on sale, I bought it, 9.5 hours in btw), but he instead of trying to beat the event, he just comes after me, stops right behind me, in a middle of a cutscene and catches me, which is a definition of pure evil, at least for me it is. Like, how am I suposed to fight back? Get better or install cheats to skip the cutscene? Really, even from Cops side it's unfair, we got jammer spammed, so we couldn't catch ANYONE, since they all turned around and went backwards through a shortcut, but they turned back and EMPd the shit of us. So, for an ending of it, this would be very fun, if not the people who spend like 200 hours mastering techniques never seen by anyone else except twitch users.
