So many players in NFS Unbound Multiplayer are the worst. Do be careful if you are right next to one neck to neck with them. 90% of the time they will pull this nonsense on you.
Single player games that require online connectivity to work should not exist. Not even an update would be enough, people in 100 years should be able to pop a game out of the box in it's 1.0 version and work just fine
The Crew. December 2014 - March 2024.
As of March 31st, 2024: The Crew's servers are shut down. The Crew was a unique racing game with its large map, social features, blend of racing and RPG elements. The reveal trailer is still great to this day.
Legitimately one of the best racing games ever made from one of the most consistently good franchises in gaming. Enjoying a game as a kid is one thing, still enjoying it as an adult is magic few can do
When was the last time you felt truly excited for a new racing game release? I think my last time was with Need for Speed (2015), I wouldn't stop talking about it. I remember too playing the FH3 trailer on repeat and its demo was the first thing I played when I got my GTX 1060
I'm not even joking, we need arcade racers where this behavior is encouraged. We're demanding too much from a videogame if we expect people to drive respectfully when crashing into others has no real consequences. That's why Mario Kart is so much fun to play with friends
Let's say you're in charge of directing a street racing game. Which cars would you make players have right at the beginning? My idea would be to make players feel like they're progressing by starting with an old hatchback but my Spanish bias might be kicking in...
I see this so often
> game comes out, is heavily criticized, general concensus is its bad
> 5-10 years pass
> public opinion takes a 180 and calls it a hidden gem, an underrated masterpiece, always been good actually
and every time I feel like I'm going crazy
I cannot stress enough how much I want to turn someone else's multi million dollar hypercar into an unrecognizable load scrap because I want to get into P1
If I were to make a video for YouTube, what would you rather watch?
- The decline of "the decline of racing games" videos
- Why I don't like The Crew Motorfest while most of my friends do
- Review + fun facts of every single Burnout game
- My idea for a modern Burnout game
Given the current state of EA/Criterion, how expensive and labour-intensive videogames are, player's gravitation towards licensed cars, the push for live-service models and other modern trends in the gaming industry, would the announcement of a new Burnout game make you excited?
Small appreciation post for
@andyblackmore
because the kits he designed back then for need for speed is definitely the craziest and coolest any racing game has done. Crazy but you can see how much thought has been put into every kit. Anyways whats your favourite kit his done?
Introducing my latest creation: the Aglais Supra Criterion Special, a custom Toyota Supra JZA80 inspired by the Kitano Touge Sport from Burnout Paradise.
Modeled and rendered in Blender (Cycles engine).

Why are so many video essays titled "the downfall of racing games" and consist of regurgitating the same talking points I've seen in the other bazillion videos? Lucas Raycevick already did the best video on this issue + brought up suggestions, we don't need more!!! 😭
This was supposed to be a test of my scene for a future artwork but my friends forced me to post it so here it is, 14 stock JZA80 Supras and my own version in the middle, straight from the jar with no post processing. Rendered in Cycles at 1000 samples.

Which Burnout games have you actually played? I have played them all except for Crash. I played the demo for the PS3 as a kid but I never had the chance to experience and complete the full game. I haven't played the mobile game either but we don't talk about that one 🤫
First render using my new PC! Very happy with both the final result and the performance of my new system during the rendering process. Once again I've shot my custom Toyota Supra MK4 rocking the Aglais Criterion package. As always rendered using the cycles engine

Today I came out of the closet to my mom as a trans woman. I'm safe and I'm being supported, everything has gone smoothly. Soon I'll start HRT.
Thanks to everyone who has helped me go this far, I cannot wait to see what will be ahead of me ✌️
Blender cycles in 3.6.4 vs 4.0.0 beta. The new view transform and energy conserving principled shader add a subtle but meaningful layer to every render. Here's an apples to apples comparison of the same exact scene:
How would you feel about cop chases in a new Burnout game? Precedents can be found in Burnout 2, Burnout Legends and Burnout Paradise (as an online only mode), but we never got anything more in depth NFS HP2010/Rivals style without powerups. What do you think?
For a hypothetical new Burnout game, what kind of cars would you like to see? Should there be returning cars? Should they start completely from scratch? Should cars have cartoon-ish proportions or should they lie towards realism? Comment any thoughts you have 👇
How do you imagine a new Burnout game? How would you like it to be? Where would it be located? Which main mechanics would it have? How would the art direction be? Any names? How could it innovate the genre? Any post release content plans? Online experience? Anything goes!
There's something about recent NFS games that I would like to see again, and that is better car culture representation. When NFS 2015 came out I thought that this representation would become the main driving force behind the series... But then Payback happened
It's time again folks,

There's nothing quite like it, it's unique in a sea of similar. No, it doesn't always get everything right, but this is an incredibly special series to a lot of people. We're ready to fight for it 😤

My dream feature: cars that can be completely shredded. I'd love to be able to split a car in half as shown in an early prototype of Paradise + a concept video they did
Which are your favorite cars from the entire Burnout series? Mine has to be the Watson 25 V16 Revenge with the scorpion livery, although there's many more I also like. The Works M-Type GT comes to mind, the Euro Classic LM too and, ofc, the Touge Sport!!!
Driving the Kitano Touge Sport has been a dream of mine ever since I was a kid. That's why I chose to model from scratch a widebody kit for the Supra inspired in the lines of this legendary videogame car
I've been a bit busy these last few weeks but I managed to find some time to finish this Christmas present for
@brawlersworld
, a 3D Appy plush! I've always wanted to have a plush of his little demon so I did one myself in Blender. Happy holidays!
If having a stroker 3.4L HKS modified 2JZ-GTE engine wasn't enough this unique version comes with a NOS bottle to push the block to it's limits. Looking fast isn't enough, you have to be fast.
