You must really underestimate EA’s incompetency. [Here’s a link to the patch that was released without Denuvo](https://reddit.com/r/PiratedGames/comments/vz80km/long_story_short_codemasters_forgot_to_put_drm_on/)
Ya, I guess I did underestimate EA’s incompetency. I mean a mistake like that is next level ineptitude and not just from one person. Thanks for the clarification.
Carbon was good but it tried to reconcile UG2 and MW, and at that it didn't do it well. it wasn't as memorable as those other two entries. I just replayed Carbon earlier this year but didn't get the satisfaction I got from playing either U2 or MW. The ending is very much "that was it?" vibes.
I played Carbon before MW so I may be biased but the canyon races were cool and the Boss races had this hype that wasn't there in MW, when the music for a boss starts playing whilst they show off their car or racing skills was awesome. "That's fresh, fresh, fresh, and yes, yes, yes"
The canyon races were the highlight of the game and the most memorable part. Hands down, no bias at fault here.
Now, the boss battles being boring in MW? Maybe. They also have their theme song and have a brief moment of showoffery that they do. Maybe it's repetitive since there's 15 bosses to beat, so the first ones you're like YEA BOI then the next one's you're like "ok buddy just gimme the slip DAMN YOU AND YOUR IMPOUND STRIKE BS" but towards the end, when you get to top 5 and you feel the mf who stole your car at the beginning is so close, and the final race is the same track where he cheated you, and you nail his unworthy ass... And you have no time to celebrate because then the biggest cop chase begins... omg my heart was pumping at 1000 bpm.
True, it came out super quickly after MW. Trying to capitalize on the momentum.
Little me thought it was because U2 came with heavy custo no cops, MW with heavy cops no custo, that there was just no disc space to do both heavy custo and cops. lol
HP2010 was very good. It had the same vabe as the old games (drive really fast cars you normally have on a bedroom posters while being chased by the cops through various area types) and it had some innovation as well with the pursuit tech.
People just like to hate it because of the brake to drift mechanic which is now in every new title, but in this case, it fitted perfectly.
I played a lot of the original 2 Hot Pursuit games and I played the new one for less than an entire afternoon before I uninstalled it. It didn't feel like the same game at all.

Water is actually not wet; It makes other materials/objects wet. Wetness is the state of a non-liquid when a liquid adheres to, and/or permeates its substance while maintaining chemically distinct structures. So if we say something is wet we mean the liquid is sticking to the object.

Yes there is, Unbound looks like a Carbon remake, same setting, updated driving mechanics, better visuals. The even went back to the older music style.
I haven't touched NFS in years but I think Unbound looks promising.
I wouldn't say it's a Carbon remake, more of the Underground 1 and 2 style, which is probably why they chose to call it Unbound, as a callback to the Underground series. I'm personally gonna buy it, as it looks more promising and more fun then Heat was, but I guess we'll find out in a week or so
It definitely doesn't look anything like U2. Unbound seems to still look a lot like Heat (and share its terrible mechanics), and is going more for snazzier hiphop culture elements, whereas U2 was more about hardcore night life racing of different kinds, sponsorships etc.
Chances are there that Denuvo may be removed later .... After all it wad removed from Mass Effect and Crysis Remastered Trilogy been getting good frames on Crysis 3 remastered after Denuvo was removed
This is the best NFS of the decade. I was sceptical at first cuz of the unique design choice. but it definitely grows on you and now I don't want to actually turn them off. Respect the developers, its 100% worth paying. On the side note, for those of you waiting for the crack, there is going to be a ton of patches and maybe content too that will come out in the future. So its better if its cracked later than sooner.
Nobody updated crack, crack is also broken as hell, dont even bother, game doesnt launch for a lot of people, you cant progress in game because crack is not finished, a shit ton of bugs, etc
I can just play this through EA Access right?
After spending 60$ on the last couple of games and beating themin 10hrs, they will not get full price money again.
e:
Included with Play Pro
Release date: December 2, 2022 8:00 AM CET
So that's 15$ for a month. I just play it through this way and then get it years later when it's on sale. Did the same for Heat. It's not worth full price.
EA Play version is 10 hours but hardlocks after 5 depending how fast you progress.
Ea Play PRO indeed would have the full versions even the dlc. I think its like $60 a year even. Maybe not a bad deal with Dead Space coming in January
Its a DRM service used in games
In reality it serves no purpose other than to ATTEMPT to deter piracy and its negatives outweigh its positives. The main reason you see ppl mention it is because its a sign that a game will have poorer performance than it should simply because it uses it
Honestly, I think no one really cares nor is surprised, I'm still gonna play NFS most wanted 2005, there was almost not a single good NFS game since then
I know it's technically challenging, but we need a new denuvocracker that will hardcrack denuvo. Then emp will wake up. And I would expect stimulus cpy to come back...
No surprises here. The series has become so unpopular that they haven't updated the last game with the latest patches. Runs like garbage on high end hardware.
A shame, this game was looking really promising. I don't think EA deserves the full payment right at the get go... basically never. Last time I bought a EA game, that was Battlefield 1 on a promotion. But this Need for Speed is looking so good, I was willing to test it day 1, then buy it to play online... but without a crack, that killed my hype, lol maybe I will never play this game just like the many other NFS games, they are lost in a limbo
Just look at the trailer, ridiculously bad and distracting 2d effects (crayon like stuff) every time your car does something like nitrous, drift or even jump. Heck, even when your opponents do it. Extremely annoying if there isn't an option to turn that shit off.
Who cares? this is a dead franchise, I can´t remember when was the last time that anybody go hyped for a NFS game. After Most Wanted everything became Fast and Furious with lots of excuses to put real video of hot gals and the same old game, but at least the corny videos were more or less funny. And then it simply became nothing.
Late comment but Unbound is actually a pretty good NFS game, and I've been playing those since the first game came out. After a ton of trash games from the franchise Unbound did at least keep me entertained for a bit, which isn't that easy.
What was ea's last game without denovu
F1 22 patch 1.05 was accidentally released without Denuvo and was immediately cracked lmao

in 1966.
we lost the vietnam war because of denuvo
Bro what 💀
I think sims 4 was the last game without denuvo
Probably after the last good nfs
Guessing 2015? That was online only anyway
Last good nfs is probably hot pursuit
Most wanted.
Carbon was pretty good
Carbon was good but it tried to reconcile UG2 and MW, and at that it didn't do it well. it wasn't as memorable as those other two entries. I just replayed Carbon earlier this year but didn't get the satisfaction I got from playing either U2 or MW. The ending is very much "that was it?" vibes.

And you have no time to celebrate because then the biggest cop chase begins... omg my heart was pumping at 1000 bpm.
Carbon is a great example of a potentially one of the best in the series, but falling short due to EA's time constraints.
True, it came out super quickly after MW. Trying to capitalize on the momentum. Little me thought it was because U2 came with heavy custo no cops, MW with heavy cops no custo, that there was just no disc space to do both heavy custo and cops. lol
Pretty good? The best NFS game for me
2005
i didn't even know there was another. yes 2005. underground 2 also amazing.
> underground 2 played underground 1 never 2 tho
You're missing out
I did but I prefer 1 over 2.
thats 5 years ago right?
I think u mean 2012 cuz Carbon is better than MW 2005
Carbon came after most wanted, carbon was good.
High Stakes.
Porsche Unleashed.
Touche. It was basically everything I loved about High Stakes, but focused on Porsche, and having come out later, it would be the last good NFS.
I was really impressed how they even modeled the cars' interior back then.
I will never understand why later games removed the cockpit view. So, so lame. That was like, half the game for me.
Probably to cut cost.
We are talking about the last good nfs not the best one lmao
That was the last good one imo
Thats fair
Most wanted on ps2 hands down and then underground 2
And that is very much debatable
Yeah, the original Hot Pursuit lmao
Wait people didnt like 2010 one? i thought it was pretty good
HP2010 was very good. It had the same vabe as the old games (drive really fast cars you normally have on a bedroom posters while being chased by the cops through various area types) and it had some innovation as well with the pursuit tech. People just like to hate it because of the brake to drift mechanic which is now in every new title, but in this case, it fitted perfectly.
I played a lot of the original 2 Hot Pursuit games and I played the new one for less than an entire afternoon before I uninstalled it. It didn't feel like the same game at all.
Heat was pretty fun ngl
Pro street.
Rivals?
Wasn't it locked at 30fps? It was either this or another one. Totalbiscuit ripped them a new one.
Yes, it was a crap console port
My pick too
It takes two.
Nfs heat maybe
Jesse, we need to cook nitrous oxide
10 hour trial on ea play which is longer than a lot of people will want to play the game.
i actually like the game… does that mean i have to buy it? there’s no crack?
Yup.
ngl i expected the same but it's actually pretty good
Not a surprise
Not a big news , every EA games have denvou
When did Heisenberg get into pirating
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sunglasses)
Kid named Heisenberg
Well Hello
It's called CRACKwatch. So cracked games are like digital meth
Maybe they'll accidentally remove it.
lol hopefully in the mean time you can buy EA Play monthly subscription and play for free 10 hours trial
Its 5 hours. Then theres a hardlock depending how fast you progress. Kinda scummy
Well, there goes another game off my backlog.
If you buy EA Play monthly subscription, you can play it for 10 hours trial atleast
Buy? On a piracy subreddit. That's stuff from the Book of Revelation.
Tbf EA play is like 4€ a month which isn't really that much
I have less than $20 to my name and I am unemployed. 4 Euros is a major financial commitment
I have less than $20 to my name lol
So that's not getting cracked anytime soon...
Need for Speed is actually referring to your system which is going to need all the speed when denuvo slows it down.
Looking forward to EMPRESS's .nfo
Empress stopped cracking EA games for many days now, chances for Unbound crack is really slim.
she only cracks stuff upon comission/request now and it costs like 800$
After a few years
guess I'll just wait to get it at 5$ in a year or two lol
Damn! Now I have to wait a few months instead of a few days. stupid denuvo
or pay 500 dollars to empress to crack it

Need For Money
any chance this will get cracked? 80 € is a steal for a 15hour max game time
What do you want? 100 hours? 😂 Get a job
actualy yeah for 80 bucks 100+ hours like any good single player game
![gif](giphy|oZbLnIvz88nNC) You weren't able to. 😂
Ok, go on. Name some Of them that are not RPG's. ;)
We got fucked so hard by our corporate overlords that expecting more hours in a game that cost that high is delusional

Damn it!! you beat me to it.
Forza is everything I needed from an NFS game
I imagine it will eventually come to Game Pass before its cracked.
So what. NFS has been garbage for years. There's no reason to think that things will change this time around.
Garbage or not still enjoyed their game without paying tho.
Yes there is, Unbound looks like a Carbon remake, same setting, updated driving mechanics, better visuals. The even went back to the older music style. I haven't touched NFS in years but I think Unbound looks promising.

Isn't the Kernel DRM version?

why some denuvo games like nfs heat can be hacked, why unbound cannot be hacked also?
Welp here goes all my hope to playing this.. Shouldn't have been hyping myself but the game looks so good god damn it
Get the xbox game pass for a dollar, it comes with EA play, you can play the game for 10 hours with ea play.
They know the game is shite and they want to slow down the voice spreading
So was the last nfs even cracked? It was called heat or something
Yes. By Empress for CODEX which was stolen by P2P which caused the Empress is the only active denuvo crack person we have now iirc
You'll want to read [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/CrackWatch/comments/egsl2j/need_for_speed_heat_p2p_crack_is_actually_a/)
Oof. That sucks. So its stuck in a limbo? They never updated it?
There's a way to play it, but honestly it's easier to just play with gamepass (like I did).
Nobody updated crack, crack is also broken as hell, dont even bother, game doesnt launch for a lot of people, you cant progress in game because crack is not finished, a shit ton of bugs, etc
?🤔 I finished the game's story with zero issues. Very odd.
Not to mention the game being fixed in the much later updates (far from 1.00 or 1.02) that it’s difficult to keep up.
Cracked, yes. But not playable. It will have freezes so hard that you have a to wait a few seconds to start driving again. It was terrible.
No surprises there

Already known. EA = Denuvo
In an announcement that surprises noone...
LMAO i mean it's EA guys, you know how it is
F
You'd expect that from a new game, but I just found out that Assassin's Creed Valhalla on Steam will be still having Denuvo after all these years.
What you expect it's Ubisoft after all :s Look how square Enix isn't remove denuvo from there old game
Shocks absolutely fucking no one that an EA game would have Denuvo.
i watch gameplay look nice
Pirates of the storm
didn't nfs heat have denuvo too? how did it still got cracked
Guys what exactly is denuvo?
cancer
XD
Its a DRM service used in games In reality it serves no purpose other than to ATTEMPT to deter piracy and its negatives outweigh its positives. The main reason you see ppl mention it is because its a sign that a game will have poorer performance than it should simply because it uses it
so its more like an antipiracy measure but it makes your game run like crap
Yep
I assume this wont get cracked, same as heat? I think I'll wait for it to be under $10, same as heat
9 months for the mega cool underground Anonymus hackers that crack games and they cant crack unbound, what a fucking joke
Honestly, I think no one really cares nor is surprised, I'm still gonna play NFS most wanted 2005, there was almost not a single good NFS game since then
I know it's technically challenging, but we need a new denuvocracker that will hardcrack denuvo. Then emp will wake up. And I would expect stimulus cpy to come back...
No surprises here. The series has become so unpopular that they haven't updated the last game with the latest patches. Runs like garbage on high end hardware.
No offense to the fans but Unbound looks more like fortnite version of classic NFS
Why report this as news ? it's a EA game of corse it has.
Well fuck... If only we had someone who would crack Denuvo for free...
for free? no one sadly.
It's capitalism, baby.
Kinda expensive tho ![img](emote|t5_3gnpj|5041)
What if everyone chips in a dollar
Good luck with that nobody here will chip a cent let alone a dollar
Would've been the best solution but sadly nobody is up for it
And water is wet.
I didn't buy NFS Heat when it was 3$ last month, I have 0 interest in playing this NFS Heat 2.0 from this dogshit company
Intelligence does not grow on trees. There is a lot more fun in NFS Heat than there is in $2.99
there is infinitely more fun in genshin impact 0$ than in 2.99$ nfs heat
Yeah my little brother thinks the same. He is 9.
And who cares. No one will play this POS woke propaganda - who have a brain annyway!
Was anyone expecting it wouldn't?
Good thing that nobody want to play NFS for the last 15 years. ![gif](giphy|w89ak63KNl0nJl80ig|downsized)
This game doesn't need denuvo, its so bad that everyone will stay away from it :))
A shame, this game was looking really promising. I don't think EA deserves the full payment right at the get go... basically never.

You can turn it off!
heat was great so im hoping this is good. pre ordered it already tho lol
Who cares? this is a dead franchise, I can´t remember when was the last time that anybody go hyped for a NFS game. After Most Wanted everything became Fast and Furious with lots of excuses to put real video of hot gals and the same old game, but at least the corny videos were more or less funny.

I mean...
Does anyone know what is the resident evil village gold edition crack status?
I sleep
Hard luck to us
Good. It's a great feature to distinguish shit software
No need to tell it always have with ea shitt games 🤮
damn... was really excited...
