Drag coming to SHIFT2 as DLC?

Post by Bojan »

http://www.youtube.com/v/-8qTeLcA1C8&&r ... &version=3[/embed]

The video above which is hiding in the movies folder of the PC SHIFT2 Unleashed version shows what appears to be drag mode featuring the Twins Turbo Dodge Viper. This might mean that drag will be coming as a future DLC and that the PC players could also be getting it. We'll keep you posted if it turns out to be true.

Update: there are actually 3 movies hidden showing possible future update, the above Standing Mile DLC trailer, the Drag DLC trailer and the Legends DLC trailer which shows off classic car races with new additions to the car list like the Ford GT40, Alfa Romeo GTA 1600, Porsche 911 Carrera RSR and more.

Thanks to [T][N][3][R] for the heads up.

No idea why the voices are muted in both trailers, I'm guessing the people who recorded this didn't like Gittin calling 'em noobs ^^

New modes? They better come to PC. If i had a choice, modes vs cars, i'd pick the former.

Ok, im pretty sure that as soon as i see a console exclusive car you will see me whine there or somewhere else, but if that's a mode we are speaking about, and specifically its DRAG, which would be so much fun with all those cars available, im gonna raise a shiznit in mere seconds. :lol:



Now, those trailers are probably on PC because they are on consoles as well, except that we can't access them that easily on the console version.


Since its a trailer, then it certainly isnt just left over stuff.

DLC - we knew it would happen..but now thats weird. Hiding DLC TRAILERS in game files....are you serious :lol:


EDIT: Supersport Veyron on that trailer, some Lamborghini, and the Twins Turbo Viper....well thats bad. Cars + Modes mean its not coming for PC. Damn it.


EDITv2: Right now im about to shed a man's tear. Porsche 911 Carrera RSR 3.0. A Classic Porsche and obviously i miss out.
At least i have the other 100 cars to play around with. And then there are mods, i heard Shift 2 has a similar file structure so it will be easier to start modding it.

It would be amazing if SHIFT 2 brings back drag and those classic cars. I seriously hope that gets released on the PC as well, but since it will probably be paid DLC, PC users just won't get it. But mods are already coming for SHIFT 2 after just some days from release day, so I'm sure someone will convert the DLC from the 360. No worries there. :)

PC misses out on the cool stuff again.

There's no way EA will release those cool modes and cars for the PC community they just wont. Can't sell it to us? Then give it to us for free. For once dont screw the PC community over.

Obviously ill get flamed for that, but we deserve at least that much for being unable to buy DLC in last few NFS games.
I think we couldnt buy it in Pro Street(not sure), we could not buy it on Shift, Hot Pursuit...they barely even gave us the 3 free cars that everyone was supposed to get. It took them really long even though they were in-game already.


One thing is good, Shift 2 will probably be modded like the first one, so we will get those cars at least...

The Pro Street DLC was available for PC but it was like $10. As for this DLC I really hope it gets released for PC since I really wanna tune that Fairlady Z

The '99 Eclipse is never coming back to NFS, is it? Unless they make Underground III, which I doubt...

I hope the PC version doesn't get screwed over again...

Well... I think I get it right now... read a lot of Feedbacks now @ PC-Games Magazine & Amazon -
I'm really shocked about the Evolution of Need For Speed... I hope NFS UG3 will be much better...
and about NFS World - even in Street Race Syndicate the World was better than this 1 unfinished!

The Street Racing Series should return back with it's Tuning - it would help NFS to comeback!-o

Pro Street Energizer Lithium pack (aka Patch 1.1) is free as far as I know... what DLC are you talking about exactly? O.o

Don't get your hopes up,

Chances that there will ever be a UG3 is very slim, bordering on non existed.
The whole tuner scene with neons etc is basically over, no where near as big as it was in 2003 (UG)
I'm talking about real life, not the gaming world, and EA is know to follow the trends when it comes to NFS games so I doubt they are willing to put money in a other UG game.

@Pro Street DLC
On PC, if you installed the 1.1 patch you would get 2 cars for free(and some tracks i think) but it was only 2 cars, RoadRunner and some Seat, you weren't getting the other cars in the pack for some reason. You could buy them on consoles i dont know about PC.

No on PC I can download the Booster Pack / Energizer Lithium pack any time for free as patch 1.1 from EA's site. It adds 16 cars and some tracks, buggy as hell though...

It's probably paid for only on consoles, similar to L4D.

@TheStig

The Hot Pursuit scene was also over back in 2001, and yet they managed to bring it back and make it feel new...

That's something completely different, has nothing to do with the whole car culture etc.

Pursuit races is something of all ages.
The whole carpimpin with neons and big bodykits is of that time, now it's not as HOT as it was.
Now if you are driving around with neons and stuff like that, you look like a fool, back in 2003 you also looked like fool but at least thousands of other ricers did the same so you where not alone.

I'm talking real life, back then it was a hype, FnF was just out and a big hit, and so was vinyls and neons on your car, now even the new FnF movie won't have excessive ricing on it.
Car cultures chance and so do NFS games, they change with it.
Hot Pursuit is something that they could always fall back on just like games like shift. there is no real new hype or anything in it.

Now that I think about it... FnF isn't that much pimp anymore ether. Still, where I'm from most people can't afford neons, fancy stereos etc... or can't find a decent shop that can install 'em, therefore settle for these:

Image

Hehe, making fun of my compatriots always puts a smile on my face, anyway. Car stereos, spinners, tinted windows etc might be out of fashion, and tbh in Underground 2 I only added them cause they were there (except neons, they are for the win), however (detailed) tuning isn't out of fashion, I miss being able to customize every little detail (mirrors, lights, etc) on my car. That combined with autosculpt, a decently sensitive 360 camera vinyl system with both mouse and keyboard placement (like in NFS world) and a decent level of customization for each part (like in MCLA) and the visual tuning would be perfect...
