Need for Speed™ Heat Reviews

A good need for speed game, with a lot of things to do but the story could had played out better. Overall good racing game.

The co-op/multi player was a bit strange to get the hang of at first. Otherwise its been a fun game. Race, win, get upgrades. Or if you're like me it goes race, get busted and try again. Still fun.

One of my favorite games was Need for Speed: Most Wanted for Xbox. This is a very similar experience, and probably one of EA's better titles. Very little microtransaction bullshit. Fun balance of arcade and "real" racing. The visual fidelity is fantastic, but there is definitely a "style" that you'll either enjoy or won't. There was a surprising lack of visual graphical choices but still runs fantastic nonetheless. Works great on Steam deck. Cloud save is through EA's godawful app though. Fun!

This game is remarkable even though i've been playing for only 3 hours it's fun,police chases,good graphics,and open world but it was on sale for 7$ but i don't think it's worth full price though

I am a huge fan of the Need for Speed franchise, but I have to say that this game is not my cup of tea. There are several fundamental problems with it that hinder the experience of playing it. For instance, the race and reputation system, one keeps playing races and they reward money, but then you end up with a lot of money that you cannot use because even if you can buy more cars, they more or less have the same rank all the time even with higher levels, so it does not really matter. I might have forgotten the level system, so let us presume you want to play through the night, get rep. Good, but the races don't award all that much and the levels increase sluggishly, to mention cop chases can boost this, but the cops are on such level of difficulty that you cannot hope to beat because whilst their cars are virtually indestructible, your car feels like a dead paperweight that has mere 3 repairs left per night, not to mention that any hits on them do a little damage, while the most basic police car ramming into you just trashes you away like a toy even with highest traction tires. I really tried to get a hang of it, but the steering system is downright atrocious, the progression system is slow and feels unrewarding and the collectibles do not save the day through trying to copy Forza Horizon which just seems like a better game overall. I do not even understand this release. It feels like a cheap copy of NFS 2015, but they took what was good about it and threw it into a trash can for new concept that barely works with music probably chosen by a 12 year old intern with no taste in music. Not recommended.

one of the better ''newer'' nfs games, the customizability is really nice, i think the rep level system is really good, high risk high reward, progression is fine definitely way better than Payback's. Story is alright not the best, and early game night game play is actually really challenging and fun, really enjoyed it.

Picked it up on sale. Had some fun but there's for sure issues with the game and the balance. First off, the cops are OP and seems it's not worth raising your wanted level as you'll lose money and the rep bonus you're trying to get if you're caught. It's pretty insane and just feels like the game cheating. I can be going over 200 MPH and a crown vic is riding my ass. Although the game says it supports steering wheels, it seems it actually doesn't. Emulators don't seem to work either, so just keep that in mind. The game plays fine on a controller, but just in case you wanted it for that reason I would avoid the game. If there was a meh rating I would give that. I would only recommend on an extreme sale like I picked the game up.

Why is this game $70??? It used to be for free and then under $10 LOL What in the hell? It is one of the better new games that has came out but seriously not worth $70 someone is off their meds!

Easy to play, grind, and the machine system is not too complicated, love it

Love everything about this game.The cars,the wide choice of their customization and performance,the cop chases on heat level 5. I like the story too but is little bit shorter than other NFS games like ''PAYBACK'', but overall the game is good.I like the fact that still have online lobby and the opportunity to max out cars with ultimate parts from high heat races which is so cool.I genuinely recommend it. ;}
