harsly Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Surely, I can't be the only one that's extremely bothered by the Live-Action cutscenes? They make me cringe SO HARD. Also, it's literally the only reason I won't be getting the game, say what you want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slipknot_rooney Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 More to the game than cut scenes my friend. Every game has it's faults. Can't skip them can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welmosca Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 You ain't alone ma friend,since the videos showed at E3 I was afraid this would happen.Won't go so far as to the point of not getting the game but yes that's a terrible mistake,devs need to learn that real people and game don't mix(you know what I mean).I already don't like when they make live-action trailers for games let alone make the whole cut-scenes in the game live-action.I'm extremely bothered by this.

Shadiochao Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Live action or not, I just can't bring myself to care about any of the characters. Neither they or their motivations are really that interesting, but what can you expect from a racing game? It's not the best place to try and introduce some deep and meaningful story. I wonder how much of their budget went into acting all this out and getting these racing celebrities(?) to make appearances. I'm just not interested and I could've done without it all 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yadilie Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I'll take live action cutscenes of actual famous people in the street racing scene over really badly done models of said people. Also it's a racing game. Out of probably 25ish hours of gameplay you're looking at most 50 minutes of cutscenes spread out over that 25 hours. First world problems.

And I don't know, maybe I would if I liked the gameplay enough to compensate for the cutscenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP never said anything about not respecting other members opinions and he is far from shoving his down our throats, calm down bud. On topic, yeah, the cutscenes do look completely awful but that wouldn't be enough to keep me from purchasing the game, personally. Hopefully they're able to be skipped because who really cares about a story in a Need for Speed game? Parker 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HcG Clawz Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Am i the only one that likes the cutscenes then? Oh well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aviditas90 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I somehow like them aswell, but hate that the cutscenes are so random like loosing a race and then the "you are the best we are so bad" cutscene pops and i just was like "wtf dudes?"

Timwit-34 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I think the live action thing is OKAY. It's just the characters, the dialogue and their cringey constant fist bumping which is irritating. If they made a really interesting plot with better characters I think it could work well. What I really hate is how they are constantly calling you on the phone during gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charl_yma6 Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 This thread is everything I've been looking for. Do people like this exist in real life with the way they talk and act? I hate that it came out in the year of 'bae' too Spike is definitely the most annoying with the way he touches his stupid hat every now and then when he talks to you. I feel sorry for the 'Risky Devil' crew. They look so awkward in the scenes. I find it funny with all the monster energy product placement too...suppose its better not to encourage drink driving but maybe all the caffeine is why Spike is so twitchy. Although the scenes are cringy as hell, there is some story and the game overall isnt that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilanYildirim Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I like them they don't bother me but they just don't make sense at all. Amy for example, she is under a car all the time yet she looks perfectly okay with perfect make up no oil at all.I mean, if you're making some cutscenes at least put your back on it to make it just a little bit realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalailama1989 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't think that Live/Real-shot cutscenes aren't bad - a certain level of realism is always nice. And they are shot pretty well, I have to say. But the content is more than awful, I have to agree. But all NfS games have a dumb story: "New racer comes to a town, where gazillions of people race and police can't do anything against it. New racer ranks up and gets respect by others." It's just utter nonsense.. But most people probably play it for the sake of gameplay/racing and not a realistic story - at least so do I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adonisabcd Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 NFS Most Wanted and NFS Carbon were both Live Action and guess what? Both games were freaking great, and everyoe loved them. I think you never played those games. Those two, including Underground and Underground 2 were my Fav NFS games of ALL Time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I've played Most Wanted AND Carbon, but on PSP and I guess that didn't bother me as an 11 year old. And I've played through the new game in the last two days and while I don't think it's terrible, I'm still happy I borrowed it from a friend instead of buying it.

Naaaaah man, Most Wanted and Carbon PSP versions are not even 1/100th of the games on PS2. You need to play those if you haven't. Most Wanted can be bought digitally on PS3 PSN store, in the case of NFS Carbon the game was released on disc for PS3, sad thing is that it doesn't have trophies.

I am planning on getting some NFS's since I like having a racing game to play when I can't be bothered with a heavier game I'm playing.
