nice update, thanks beth

please just kill the name Need for Speed.
stop this madness

FIX THE DAMN GAME ALREADY
every few seconds, the game stutters due to "packet burst", still not fixed months later HOW IS THIS ACCEPTABLE?
the only thing they ever do is add new skins and some new maps, that's it, why should they bother with anything else, right?

I enjoy running around an empty boring map for 20+ minutes only to get suddenly sniped without ever even seeing anyone, effectively wasting 100% of my time for absolutely nothing

battle royale games are fun, peak gaming

The game itself is really good and I would recommend it, the story, characters, sounds, music, graphics and levels you get to explore are all very good and gameplay is fun. However, the game is simply broken and BARELY playable, every update introduces new bugs and fixes very few. Has the stuttering improved since the release? Yes, actually, it has, though it's not entirely gone yet. I have a very high end PC (specs below) and never really had FPS issues (played since day of release until Patch 5) outside of very few, very short instances where it dropped to 20's for ~4 seconds. I am still giving this game a Not Recommended though, because the state it's in, especially for the high price of 70€, is simply unacceptable and these companies can't keep getting away with it. Thanks for MAYBE fixing the game AFTER most people already played it and are done with it?

played on Epic settings with FSR on Quality @1440p, average FPS would probably be around 110 for me

-crashes and bugs
-60fps lock
-can't connect my google play account and continue playing what I already played on phone
-extremely pay 2 win later in the game
-multiplayer is complete pay 2 win cancer and neccessary to continue
-was a good phone game until now, at 76% completion, I simply can't progress anymore without spending loads of real money or grinding non stop, I simply don't have the cars needed to continue... shame, had lots of fun here (on phone)

anyway, it doesn't matter if they fix the game, I still won't play it on PC unless I can continue with my google play saves.

the game was great but this remaster is a catastrophic failure.
I will DEFINITELY not buy anything from Hangar 13 again anytime soon and even the little hype I had for Mafia 1 Remake is completely gone.
-graphics are buggy, missing textures, flickering etc.
-performance is very poor for some reason - in some missions, my FPS dropped to 20

-and worst of all, extremely buggy - had multiple game breaking bugs and lots of smaller ones, such as:
>Joe getting stuck in objects when I needed him to follow me to complete a mission and had to restart 4 times to finally have him respawn properly,
>Vito's hair disappearing,
>characters repeating every line 3 times,
>a mission near the end of the game reloaded my previous save instead of loading the next area for some reason,
>broken AI where they'd completely ignore me, be stuck and not do anything or straight up shoot me through walls,
>Joe shooting random civilians and alerting the cops for no reason during a mission,
>broken AI driving during a mission where when I had to follow someone, their car would crash into another car and just stay there forever without moving again...

-I haven't experienced any crashes or freezes myself

it's simply incredible how disgusting my experience with an otherwise great game was. I'm so glad I haven't paid for this. I'm also not sure why the game is literally 6 times the size of the original when there is very little improvement in visuals (44GB for me)

PLAY THE ORIGINAL GAME INSTEAD.

nice

got to top 1% highest ELO / top 13K placement worldwide after only 12 won matches because in every single one of them, I had the better cheaters on my team

only had to accept the match and wait until it ends to get easy wins.

my average premier k/d is probably about 0.000001

EDIT: no, VAC is still not fixed - amount of spinbotters I meet is lower but obvious wallhackers are still present in 9 out of 10 games
