Earl is notorious for rubberbanding in this game. I had major issues with Ronnie as well. He crashed a couple of times, I had 1,7 km lead on him and he somehow managed to overtake me with crazy speed diffrence even though I wasn't making any major mistakes. These races were won by luck more often than skill. But rubberbanding works both ways. If you make a major mistake and get overtaken there is still a fairly large chance that you can win, unless it's like the last 10% of the race. In games without such rubberbanding...well, once you were in that situation you might as well restart the race here and now. You are not winning that, period. Even if the race had just begun.

I love your vids man, all these old racing games you review make me play them all over again, I wish these game companies can just go back to these type of games without any microtransactions so far gt sport is the only racing game I know where you get new cars each update for free

I wouldn't necessarily say that Rog's dialogue referencing the protagonist(s?) of the Underground games is hinting towards them being the same protagonist in Most Wanted and Carbon. I think it's simply Rog talking to the *player* rather than the protagonist, considering the two previous games were in the Underground, and now the player is playing a NFS game set in the daylight.

Your videos are so interesting. Usually I cant get into long videos but yours are really good. I watched all the way till the end and didnt realize 18 minutes had passed

Keep up the good work. These reviews are very chilled out and straightforward.

I think that downwards trend only started after Carbon TBH. To me Carbon is a more refined and more aesthetically pleasing NFS, because it brought back drifting, it had the Canyons (which would really get me excided) and they really managed to make the city look beautiful (I really dislike MW's yellowish, beige filter, it's really annoying and looks horrible). While yes, I think they haven't fleshed out the story as much and there wasn't as much content, I still think that it's better gameplay-wise. But MW is still very good if not better in general. I just wouldn't call Carbon a part of the downfall of NFS.

Just to clarify - Earl's Sprint is the most egregious case of the Catch Up mechanic going nuts in a race and it's the primary reason why people hate Earl so much. It starts around 60% of the race done and for seemingly *no* reason, Earl will just catch up and most likely pass you by even if he's several seconds behind you. You just practically _need_ Earl to crash near the end of the race to win. It's the hardest race in the whole game, it's just dumb.

Earl rubberbanding on that event is actually an old meme, it's because of the long straight road that he can catch up from so far behind.

I've never in all the years of playing racing games, Most Wanted included, had issues with rubberbanding. The only game that I had difficulty winning in was Midnight Club Los Angeles for some reason. Every other game was a total breeze. I never noticed too much rubberbanding going on with AI in this game, although I noticed that some of the Blacklist rivals are coded so badly that they almost always crash and get stuck. Overall, it's still one of my favourite games and I think the police is really what makes it shine. Everything else was good too, but without police, this world would feel much emptier.

yes finally i’ve been waiting for this!

Amazing video man. Beautiful how you tell us and show the gameplay of it. I think i couldve watch this and know about the game without even playing it. :-)

Hey thanks for the video! My bro and I are watching every day! Keep em up

The graphics still hold up in 2019.

Not sure if a lot of people knew this, but you can fix the "rubber-banding" in the options. Find the option "catch up" and you can turn it off. Helps when you get sick of blacklisters crashing and then being right behind you again. Also a double-edged sword if you're not careful. This is one of my all-time favorite games and when i found out about the option it made the gameplay that much better. Just in case anyone didn't know!

I remember going on 25 minute chases trying to complete the Razor challenges where you had to do insane shit like trade paint 50 times and by 40 you were balls deep in Heat 6 LOOOL

It is artificial difficulty for an excuse of not being able to program competent ai. I recently started playing the game again, with all the graphics mod and extra options.... Well, the game is very easy when you get a hang of the driving mechanics, but the one point that ruins it are the drag races. Man, these are the most pathetic races ever introduced. Luckily they are mostly optional, but still, it almost ruined the experience for me. That and the pathetic motion blurr.

It's a bit unfair when it comes to speed traps because you have to change your playstyle to trailing the AI

It is a nice challenge for the most part but it's not very nice having a bloody stock Lexus speed past you into the zoom of light

Love this game and still play it occasionally. One of my biggest gripes no one ever mentions and thats hitting a pursuit breaker obstacle which has the cut scene like that donut coming out of the cut scene with spike strips under your wheels. Favorite car is the Chevy Cobalt with all the upgrades including the parts you can win from the blacklist races.

Great video man! Keep 'em coming!

I always tried playing most like underground 2 and drive to everywhere with the car that had the highest heat level..... It was fun but I wouldn't recommend it

When I played it back when I was a kid, I stopped at blacklist 3 because of rubber banding. I had a HUGE lead over Ronnie and in the dying moments of the race, he appeared out of fucking nowhere and won without me making any mistakes. Came back about 10 years later, played on PC instead of PS2, renamed the launch icon to "NeedForSpeedNoRubberBanding" and indeed there was no rubber banding. Only then I could drive being satisfied with my own skills. Until then, I was driving Gran Turismo and F1 games so the realism was my thing, only skills mattered, and rubber banding can suck my ass.

just found your channel love it .

We need a straight remaster for the PS4 and Xbox! With new graphics! We just need some faith they’ll do this! Because they remaster CTR GOD DaMNIT

Quick trivia. In the demo you originally played as rog who was supposed to be the main charicter.But they changed it. I think rog was the charicter you play as in the underground series since he brings up bayview multiple times throughout the game.

This game literally took hundreds of hours of my childhood. I’ve played through the career at least 4-5 times. The E46 M3 with a widebody kit was one of my dream cars for over a decade because of this game.

It's a legit strategy in this game to not be in first till near the end. Rubber-banding works both ways to a certain extent and they slow down a bit, and like you said, they crash constantly. Once I got the corvette, my favorite car at that time, I really didn't feel the urge to play anymore. It's a chore due to the AI, both the racers and the cops, who get frustratingly dense towards the end.. They can literally overwhelm an entire road leaving you nowhere to go. I enjoyed Underground 2 the most because it was a good blend of everything that makes NFS fun. That said I grew up with Hot Pursuit and for some reason I'll always hold that one in super high regard. The tracks were fascinating, the cars were awesome, and the cops made each race intense. Sure it didn't have the open world, but it had so much style. As NFS got more trendy it got more intolerable, and my god the cutscenes in the newer ones are downright unwatchable.

Not a problem on the PC version of the game. You can turn the yellow filter off on the PC version. I have the yellow filter turned off, and I have a mod that allows me to create a custom filter. I replaced the yellow filter with a blue filter; similar to NFS Carbon. It's the NFS Most Wanted Extra Options Mod. By far, the best mod available for NFS Most Wanted. Adds so much more functionalility to the game.

Just look at sites like NFS cars and there's still mods being posted weekly. Also, if you join any modding discord servers, you'd know that people are always releasing new mods and talking with each other to develop new mods.

How was it a downgrade? I heard it was a step up.

This game got into Heavy Metal. I remember Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold and Mastodon in constant rotation in my head.

You forgot how in the highest pursuit level, the police cars get replaced by Corvettes and even Cross will take part in pursuits occasionally. And how sweet it is to win your BMW back from Razor and then race the whole town with it.

I just KNEW you'd mention Earl's second race. That race was the absolute epitome of everything that was wrong with an otherwise exceptional game. Christ, even thinking about it makes me shiver, since I ran into that same situation in that very race more than once as a kid.

About freaking time. Good vid

I remember doing hours long pursuit,so much fun. Definitely the best of the franchise

Just finished this game after not being able to fine the setup on my pc for a while. One of my favorite games that I found eventually. I loved playing it all the time. I remember playing it on my older brother's computer laptop when I was much younger. So playing it again and beating it was such a fun game to play again. I agree that a lot of the mechanics specifically for pc are a pain, but that's what made it a challenge for me. I never even knew about the rubber band system at all and always played at default settings. The pursuits were enjoyable all the time. I loved the cutscenes that would play whenever you were able to take a cop down using one of them. When your heat got to about 3+ was when it would get nerve racking. Hitting one wall accidently could cost you either money or a marker from a rival. The milestones were always a pain thought. Always throwing your car into the police to tag them, or even get extra bounty. I remember spending around 3+ hours trying to finished blacklist #3's milestones and it made me so mad. Worth it though. I really enjoyed customizing the cars though. The customization was my favorite part, being an artist and all. Something that pained me a lot though was that on PC I couldn't change a secondary color and I had no idea why. Upsetting. Overall, such a good game for being made in 05. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to try out an old game.

Very good review, as always!

I had so many late nights playing NFS Underground, Most Wanted, Carbon and Pro Street... Who here is loving the new NFS, Need For Speed Heat??? I've had a damn blast with it!!

This game's story was the first in a racer to actually involke emotion from me. I remember my reaction when I lost the Beemer to Razor and how angry I was. A shame that the blackbox games are better than the newer titles.

This, San Andreas, and Agent Under Fire are still some of my favorite games from the early 2000s

Love your content! Keep it up!!

Need For Speed: Most Wanted's BMW M3 GTR has to be THE MOST iconic video game car ever!!!

I enjoyed your review for _Most Wanted_ and I can't wait to see your thoughts on _Carbon_ if you decide to review it. In my opinion, it was a much shorter game than the previous three, but it was still one hell of a good game.

The best thing about this game, is the visual blur you get as you go faster, that experience although makes my adrenaline pumping, it also makes me scare, not even modern games can replicate the feel of speed of this game. And the pursuit system, although very frustrating when you get caught, but it's actually not that hard, listen carefully for certain callout of the cops and you get a advantage over them, just watch out for rhino unit and spikes, those would be the big problem. And making your car stay on higher pursuit level is actually a good thing, cuz that way you'll rank up your bounty at a faster pace.

Pretty solid and well done video! Wait... You pronounced Porsche correctly? 1+ sub.
