Carbon PC Patch in the works

Post by Bojan »

A patch for the PC version of Need for Speed Carbon will soon be released to fix an issue with online play. If you attempt to play online without having this patch installed you will access a "ENTER CD KEY" screen that you will not be able to circumvent. In order to pass this screen you will need to install the patch and re-enter your CD Key.

We will let you know as soon as the patch is actually released.

So they won't bother fixing the random crasching, the screen going black when changing graphics settings, the car floating in mid-air after races etc.?

Or allowing us to actually set the keys for "look back" and "look behind"? or adding motion blur to ATi x800-series cards?

Great.

The first isn't a bug. They took it out because it's stupid. Blur doesn't work on cards that don't support SM3.0.

Guys, believe me, you don't want the blur turned on. It eats up performance like the guy in the movie "Supersize me" eats all those super-big menus. Plus it sucks horribly. It blurrs out everything already @ 80km/h or so... As if you'd constantly travel through time :)

The thing that worries me more than everything is: Why the hell did they remove pause/change camera/look behind binds for gamepad? I mean... I can't jump from a finished race to garage solely with my gamepad. What's the point then? You just lay there and enjoy the game, and suddenly you have to get up all to the keyboard just to press escape key? :?

Is this the patch that makes the game not suck? :wink:

Seriously, what's this bullschmidt about patching this non-issue where it asks for a CD key when playing online? Why not work on real issues, such as all the unbindable buttons, the netcode issues, and the complete lack of Emmanuelle Vaugier naked? :lol:
