The street speed returns

Gamescom 2019 has become during these last days home to many of the great releases that will make its way in the videogame industry over the next few weeks - and months. Electronic Arts, of course, was part of the event as one of the main companies to take into account, and from his hand we could enjoy several great titles, as was the case of Need for Speed Heat.

This is Need for Speed Heat

To show everything EA will present with Need for Speed Heat, the company made use of a demo divided into two parts: a day race, through which we can earn money to invest in our vehicles, and a night race, in which it will be our reputation as a street pilot who will be highly benefited. Likewise, we will point out that it is simple to perceive a clear contrast between both modalities, the first being the one that possibly has the least street presence, but it should not disappoint.

The control of the vehicle, we will indicate, can feel too sensitive in a first contact, with our car taking the odd turn in a somewhat more accentuated way than what is sought. However, it will not take long to understand the relevance of the brake and handbrake game that will allow us to start competing at the same pace as the rest of the opponents - although, we warn you, this will require some conscious practice. This will help the classic presence of nitrous oxide, whose recovery - constant and automatic - and use in appropriate sections will become a key point in order to devise the driving strategy that allows us to get closer to victory.

When night falls, we go directly to the illegal races, in which we will have to carry out the circuit in the shortest time possible, but with a fairly important handicap, and the police will not stop harassing us throughout the tour. Despite this, the truth is that this new game mode has seemed quite fun, and the adrenaline is triggered in races that will leave us very colorful and attractive prints.

Visually we find a correct title, without great pretensions, but that becomes striking by a very successful use of lighting, especially in the night races leaving us with quite colorful prints. Need for Speed Heat has seemed to us a certainly fun title on our first visit, but with many aspects that have to be improved before its launch. If Ghost Games is able to improve the physics, polish the AI, a somewhat awkward control, and slightly improve the feeling of speed before launch, we could be talking about a decent delivery of this saga.

Need for Speed Underground 2... now that was the gem.

Either that or it's my Nostalgia Rose Tinted Glasses working.

But I never enjoyed another NFS game like that one.

Nowadays I have been turning more into a TCG guy...
