Vehicles are also upgradable with performance modifications. Players will need to continue earning Speed Points in order to become the Most Wanted racer. Players are awarded Speed Points (SP) upon completing events, performing stunts and beating a friend's Autolog record. Drifting plays a less dominant role than before. Unlike Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010), it is no longer possible to play as the police.
This is a big contrast to the 2005 Most Wanted title, which featured a story. Players will be able to compete against each other in both single player and multiplayer playlist events.Ĭriterion Games' re-imagining of Need for Speed: Most Wanted focuses on gameplay and the player's progression to become the Most Wanted on their Speedwall, although the Blacklist (renamed to 'Most Wanted List') returns with ten rivals. The game takes place within the city of Fairhaven and features an upgraded Autolog 2.0 leaderboard system.
