Anyone else enjoying the soundtrack?

[John_Länsmansgården]

I seem to be in the minority on this one

[Astasia]

No. A few of the tracks were alright, some of them don't even sound like music, and it gets way too repetitive too quickly. I had to turn music off completely after a couple hours, loaded up my own stuff in the background which I rarely do with games.

[BTrismegisto]

Worst music ever...

[WrexTheOnly]

It's ok, I think. It fits the game's style. Though I prefer the Underground style music, I don't think it would work here.
As for repetitivity, there's a lot of songs. From what I know this game have biggest tracklist of all NFS games. But it splitted for different scenarios, so there's like 10-15 songs for day race, 10-15 for free roam, 10-15 for night race and etc.

I just load up a custom playlist on Spotify.

I do the same for most racing games anyway

[VoidSixx]

I've never turned the music off quicker. Worst sound track of any game I've ever played.

The "music" in game sucks very bad. Some of it can't even be considered music. If we compare it to the Most Wanted '05 soundtrack we can really see the difference of quality between them.

You can turn Most Wanted music over this game, but it simply will not work.
It's not only about tastes, but how music mix with rest of the game. And in that regard they did a good job.

Since Spotify has every soundtrack for NFS, which would go best with this game? I've only played Underground, Most Wanted and Shift.

[KnightLat]

Some of it is okay, in garage mostly. But I find the music very disappointing and there is a notable lack of variety. There isn't even a way to filter which songs to listen to, which is very weird, as it was a feature in all the previous games. I recommend taking a playlist of your choice and disabling in-game music

Sure it wouldn't fit as nicely but the soundtrack in this game is very very poor. Specially the day time tunes, those really wreck the radio. I wasn't saying the MW soundtrack fit this game, I was saying the quality difference in both games is very noticeable (While MW's fit that game perfectly, in Heat we just want to turn off the radio)

I dunno, I don't have any problems with the soundtrack, and I'm a Megadeth fan.
But I'm don't focus on music much, since it is in the background now. Maybe that's the reason many people don't like it. In 15 y.o. NFS it was the drive core, but now the sound design changed, engine sound is much louder than music, and driving requires more concentration.
Dunno, I see it that way, thoug I'm yet to play the Payback, and people say it has better sountrack. Didn't played that kind of games for a long time, and in racing sims music is evil.

[shanafan]

Ha, I actually like the music in the game..

[Waahson]

It's complete garbage, reminds me of why I hate going to Miami.

Wow, That's some 1st world problem right there xD
I wish I could go to Miami to visit it one day, It has always been one of my dream travels since I was a kid.
Out of curiosity, why do you hate it so much?

[KampRotte]

nah, don't like it. Spotify is a savior, and i listen to Flying Lotus or Aphex Twin mostly when playing NFS heat
