Need for Speed Racing Games

Okay so I have seen quite a few posts on Underground 3. Here's some of my ideas for if there is a new one coming.

EVERYTHING from Underground 2 needs to be in it. All the cars, all the vinyls customization etc. with some changes.

Changes:

1) Needs to have more modern cars, SUV's, but the same ones also in the Underground 2.

2) Customization needs to be fairly the same, lots of body kits, spoilers, window tint, neons, all that was in Underground 2.

3) Exotics should not be in it, because it needs the feel of tuners, muscles and SUV/Trucks.

4) Vinyls system should be somewhat like Forza 3 if possible. Would probably take a while but would make the game that much better.

5) Multiplayer gametypes: The Standard drift, drag, circuit, sprint, etc that was in Underground 2.

6) Races should be like in multiplayer, and spread out around the map for Career mode.

7) Cars should have prices but prices that are how much they would actually be worth in good condition.

8.) Damage needs to be added, but with the option of only looks or actual engine damage.

9) No cops.

10) FREE ROAM. I hate how there hasn't been a good free roam game from NFS since Underground 2. And make the option in Multiplayer to Free Roam around with your friends.

11) The map should be something like Underground 2 with the different sections to unlock and fun cruise map.

12) Underground 2 had good driver feel, with a little more realism, it would be perfect.

13) Updated graphics, of course.

These are the things that would make the perfect NFS Underground game. Got any other ideas, post 'em.

No cops?I don't think a street racing game can do without cops.= =

I know, make it a PC only game, digital download only AND make it $60, with the way to make payment through a bank account.
That's so you little children would never buy it... So nobody would buy it..

No not PC only... I want it on Xbox 360 too...

I agree with everything you say. I'm also wondering: does EA see anything in the forums? I searched "Need for Speed Underground 3" and a million results came up! EA really needs to make a Underground 3

Make it available for PS3, Xbox, and PC. I do think though that it would be very much in the nature of Underground to make it a download only game.

Awesome I already posted this on another tread but im going to repost this here so everyone can see it. Here are my ideas for NFSU3; your ideas are awesome but a street racing game without cops well it doesnt make much, the first to NFSU didnt have cops probly because of the limitations but nowdays ANYTHING can be done. Anyhow here are my ideas if you like/dislike feel free to coment or add:
1) Story: Really simple and straight foward, you are a guy with the need for speed and want to be the best street racer and beat the "legends of the streets" (more like the Tokyo Extreme Racer series) And lets say you have 2 rivals that are constantly on your toes. No need to waste money on actors or cutscenes or make a story about a undercover cop that aims to save the world from the russian mafia that uses street racing and extraterrestials to smugle nuclear bombs... NO!! People buy a racing game BECAUSE of the racing and not for the story. Just like people buy RPG's for the story, not the menus.
2)Gameplay: Basicaly keep the same gameplay styles as the old Underground2 with the free roam and cops like on nfs most wanted. Shops for body, paint and vinyls, parts, and secret shops with special one of parts. Have drifting, drag, sprint/circuit, and a better form of the "distance" races that were present in underground2 when in free roam (maybe do something similar to the T.X.R. series) also a couple of challenges would be good. It would be good to see some sort of rolling start froms some races and have a reaction sistem like the one on Burnout's crash mode. Add the manual clutch. also it would be good to have diferent cars for diferent types of races like drag and drift. Also for the dyno tuning, to be made a bit more user friendly.
3)Customization: Bring back the good ol days of mixed body kits like on the underground series, obiously make more modern and funcional looking bodykits (ex have a front bumper that incorporates a ram air like the ones used on the integras or evos, have the rear bumper run difusers) Have them built based more on race cars adapted to street cars, instead of building some ugly bumper (like the ones on Most Wanted), add widebody kits, add those little bits like hid's headlamps tailamps etc. DONT use the autosculpt on the bumpers, they werent of any use for making any "unique" bodykit. DO use it on the wheels of the offset, and lip size, also for the rear spoilers too, so you can set the height and how the spoiler is mounted at the back, also have a refined vercion of autosculpt to adjust the stance of the car for muscle cars its also cool for choping the roof. Have purpouse built modifications for some classes like drift, sprint, drag mods) Paint and vinyls and stikers but try and make a better sistem than the ones at Shift 1-2 (try something more like forza with at least some sort of meassurement) To be able to paint wheels, exhaust, calipers, and maybe individual parts like hoods, roll cages, rear spoilers.
4)Cars: DO NOT add supercars!! Its a street racing game so unless you are a ritch arabian guy then you are not going to have 5 lambos to modify . be more realistic, i really loved the first games because the cars were comon. civics, corollas, golf, ecplipse, neons, cars that one can buy, shure ferraris and porsches cmay draw in 8 year olds but i really think that EA is going overboard with putting supercars on street racing... i want normal cars and some sports cars as the "top tier" like have skylines, M3's, Corvette's etc.. NO Gallardos or stuff like that ok.
5) Tracks: since its a stret racing game the U2 game had a really good world and every series after that too so on the world i would not worry to much.
6)Music: Underground always had good music!, from hip hop to metal, but lately the games havent had that kind of pumped up music that gets you racing, maybe try something more like the soundtrack from blur(drum and base/techno music) and add something from criterion (their soundtracks are always awesome from burnout to hot pursuit) Also I believe that music is a critical part of anything so it would be awesome if your rivals had kinda like a theme to the music (ex one to have a metal style while the other has a more techno electric sound) its similar to the sistem used on carbon in the canyon races but a bit more refined to be more reactive to the actual situations.

Okay, if I was an UG fanboy I'd ask for cops, visual damage a la Burnout Paradise, 60's - 2012 cars, a big map, the ability to drive through malls, buildings, construction sites, warehouses; Underground 2 physics, Frostbite 2 engine and a lot of crazy jumps.

Underground didn't have cops. Hot Pursuit did.

Yes, but now they can make new UG with cops which will be the best of all.

ditto. Any street racing game without cops, is not a street racing game. Its just, boring.

Though, you should be able to turn them on or off...
