The name is "Need for Speed"

This is a full reboot of the franchise and not a sequel. We've been listening to what people are wanting so you can expect deep customisation, a nocturnal open world and a narrative experience.

 

[chadskin]

All footage captured in-game :O

 

[alr1ght]

Hey guys, I think the game will totally look like that when it launches.

 

[HotHamWater]

"Game engine footage representative of all platforms."

Is that a first?

 

[JetBlackPanda]

All footage captured in game

sure.

 

[TimmiT]

All footage captured in-game :O

Somehow I doubt that the final game will actually look that good.

 

[Acquiescence]

Have they not finalised the full title yet or are they just being lazy?

 

[Zombie James]

"Game engine footage representative of all platforms."

Yay, parity :/

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I like the idea of this just being called "Need for Speed."

 

[Setsuna]

"Game Engine footage representative of all platforms"

Ok

 

[Chris1]

So it's a NFS reboot completely? No subtitle? Interesting.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

It seems it uses the updated Frostbite version used in Star Wars Battlefront with PBR.

 

[Chobel]

All footage captured in-game :O

Yeah... Bullshit

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

I trust this trailer completely.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

"Game footage representative of all platforms."

Yay, parity :/

If the final game actually looked like the teaser trailer... would that really matter?

 

[PHOTOSHOP]

thats all!? god damn it

 

[Alienous]

Ah, just lie to me. I'm used to it.

Fuck this industry.

 

[Xeroblade]

Is this the arcade racer we are looking for?

 

[FelipeMGM]

Looks like a mix from Underground and Most Wanted, and I really like those games.

 

[T.O.P]

"Game footage representative of all platforms."

Yay, parity :/

PC getting the short end of the stick again, ugh

 

[alr1ght]

Is this the arcade racer we are looking for?

No, more open world junk.

 

[SerTapTap]

If that "all ingame" line is legit, that is awesome and AAA in general should be doing this (between EA and Ubi it's already an interesting trend). If it's downgraded it'll be an even bigger problem though. They really need to stop bullshitting pre-launch. Show us what you've got now, deliver better at release. Sony's been doing that pretty well, as have basically all indie developers.

I'm a wee bit doubtful it's accurate but we'll see.

 

[dramatis]

I get that they were trying to present it from a "bystander with a phone" perspective, but there's two problems: a bystander with a phone would use vertical video, and for a horizontal video it's too shaky lol.

 

[Xater]

Just like Battlefront will look like it's reveal trailer on all platforms.

 

[R3TRODYCE]

"Game Engine footage representative of all platforms"

Pfft my ass....

 

[Brazil]

So it's called Need for Speed Live?

 

[Broadbandito]

Not a cross gen title helps the in game claim

 

[Gestault]

They have my attention. Not my trust mind you, but I know what the Need for Speed teams have achieved in the past compared to other titles, and they've had some amazing-looking games.

They need to nail the handling model though.

 

[King326]

Hard to believe that was "in-game". Need to see it played live. E3!

 

[Vossler]

EA BS once again.

 

[Diprosalic]

worthless teaser.

 

[crash-14]

seems reddit info it's legit

 

[Jb]

That's it? Seriously?

 

[Cidd]

"Game Engine footage representative of all platforms"

Surely this will end well.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Well- that looked interesting-Ill say that

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

All footage captured in-game

I'll believe it when I see it.

And everyone should do the same considered how many times people have been burned in the last couple of years.

Also I would want to see non-shaky cam video, without the artifacts to simulate a digital camera.

 

[BY2K]

If that's what the game actually looks like, it's mind-blowing.

 

[YianGaruga]

It's refreshing to see a BS reveal trailer thread full of people calling it what it is

 

[SUPERJEM94]

Current Gen only, good. I need gameplay. D:

 

[SerTapTap]

I get that they were trying to present it from a "bystander with a phone" perspective, but there's two problems: a bystander with a phone would use vertical video, and for a horizontal video it's too shaky lol.

Some of us are not cretins and record horizontally on our phones. But yes the shaky cam is annoying

 

[Enosh]

"cops"

god dammit, wbt NFS where you just race other people not having to deal with ramming, spikes, emp and other shit -.-

 

[Dahaka]

it's probably in-engine

[CassidyIzABeast]

representative of all platforms eh?

 

[Akai__]

I have mixed feelings about this, because of the Police. :/

 

[XxRampage07xX]

*Watching the trailer again*

Nah this can't be in-game graphics. Not a chance!

 

[yagal]

All footage captured in-game :O

Cinematic?

 

[jmaine_ph]

Was anywhere here really expecting gameplay? I'm sure they just said it would be a reveal right? Unless they say gameplay never get your hopes up

 

[privitsan02]

The new NFS game will feature deep customisation, authentic urban car culture, a nocturnal open world, and an immersive narrative that pulls you through the game.

Well I'm in. Will be keeping an eye out.

Best wishes.
