HeyHeyItsSupreme Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 (edited) I know, it's simply an arcade-styled game. I've played NFS and all the type of racing games for years and I'm aware of that. But the handling on offroad races on NFS Payback is simply awful. Races are so frustrating, it's so hard to mantain the car on the road as the handling is so unpredictable. Plus, the rubber-band effect is sooo strong in this type of races. Sometimes your leading the race for 70% of its lenght and a random guy just shows up in a fcked up car and overtakes you... No matter how upgraded your car is. Bleh.

It’s pretty bad I been struggling with the drifting zones for a while now but I can help you finish some races via share play if you want 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUDGER666 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) AI shouldn't be catching you I found them to be a long way behind with difficulty set to easy. But yea handling sucks, I think mainly because of the slight input lag. But also if you look at the mini cutscenes before races your car isn't even on the ground it's floating. Best car imo for off road is the Chevy Bel Air. Edited January 14, 2023 by GUDGER666 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about to finish the career and time to tackle drift zones and the rest of the collectibles ?

Best car imo for off road is the Chevy Bel Air. I think I made a bad choice in terms of offroad car, I bought a Subaru Impreza WRX thinking it would act like a true Impreza WRX but it doesn't ? Also, I turned the difficult down to easy exclusively for offroad races and the AI still managed to catch me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRR---OFFICIAL Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Been an NFS fan since the PS2 Days (starting at Hot Pursuit 2, the first one on the platform, followed by Underground 1 etc.) and It's very simple, the game is TRASH... Take your copy of Payback, or if you have it Digital, the entire PS4 as it's now tainted by that crap and THROW IT IN THE BIN ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyingtiger888 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Payback is my second favorite NFS title, but I REALLY struggled with the off-road races. I figured it was just me because I'm not a fan of off-road but it's nice to see I'm not the only one that struggled with it lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played all NFS on PS2 and PSP, missed on PS3 (bought NFS TheRun for PC) and played Payback, Heat and NFS 2015. My favourite was NFS 2015, payback sits lowwww 18 hours ago, Annoyingtiger888 said: Payback is my second favorite NFS title, but I REALLY struggled with the off-road races.

I hate offroads with arcade physics. Offroad with proper physics is fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
