Good point. Not really much time to prepare, that's for sure. There was a good response made in the Server Shutdown and Delisting thread that I wanted to share that I think is relevant. This quote from @Lord_Bane999 was responding about a comment similar to yours above, about giving less than 24 hour notice. From @Lord_Bane999: Eh I think Shift 2 was the only one of the lot with a dedicated online community still anyways. But with how quickly it all was pulled I imagine the delistings could've been part of an expired license for either cars or companies represented in them. I hadn't thought about expiring licenses for cars or companies represented in games but I think that's a real possibility since it was so sudden and that it fell on the last day of the month. My guess, if this is correct, the licenses for the cars, music, and/or companies in the game may have had an expiration starting June 1. Speculation on my part, but it's possible. It was almost like they forgot about the communication until the last minute, although past delistings from EA certainly don't help justify this since communications on delistings/shutdowns for other games have been less than stellar at times.

lucky0ne16 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) guess i need to get the run done with the gold medals trophy on the dlc, need 2 golds left to do online Edited June 1, 2021 by lucky0ne16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floorkiller74 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 NFS The Run still carries full lobbies on weekends. At least PSN Kept them up for the Day, Xbox deliested the DLC right away, so people didn't have until the end of the day to buy them. Honestly though, anyone here who really wanted them likely bought them during the PS3 store shutdown fiasco. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hysteria Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) I already completed the MP portion but after the shutdown will I be able to get offline trophies?? Edited June 2, 2021 by Hysteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did the MP part allready and now you ask if you can get the online Trophies after the server shutdown. If so, than the answer would be now. Btw, I did some research. Not every DLC has been delisted yet, but I couldn't immediately find the DLC with Trophies from Shift 2. It wasn't listed as an add-on for the game this morning.

Srry I meant the offline trophies since some or one of need for speed games need to be online all the time . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXb1azed23 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I'm assuming it's safe since it wasn't mentioned, but anyone know if Most Wanted is losing its servers? Little odd every other NFS on PS3 is but MW isn't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange about Hot Pursuit because game is older than shift 2 and the run and have been remastered. The Run near all time have full lobbies on PS3 even on dlc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably just a coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POEman553 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Someone in one of my message groups is claiming that this game requires a constant online connection, did they simply misread this thread?

Need for speed undercover doesn’t need . Need for speed hot pursuit/ most wanted doesn’t need . Need for speed shift 2 unleashed NEED to be online but I don’t remember exactly but I will try today & will update you. So strange since The one Who wrote the guide didn’t even mention that , I mean that’s the most important information how did he forget that!
