crashed 30 minutes into a heated match when two of us had two cards left, and i'm going to hold a grudge about it for at least the next 15 years

Great for making meme cars for Beam, but seriously lacking any depth past that. I have a feeling this game is going to be stuck in early access limbo forever.

Why am I getting friend requests from furries now?

Hope to add a couple more digits to my hours played soon.

I feel like an abused spouse that keeps coming back. I hate this game so much but I keep playing it. Please help me.

I wouldn't be surprised if the "best use of a farm animal" award was created just for this game. It's a pretty fun time killer, with addicting, challenging, cartoony gameplay. Best of all, you get it for the wonderful price of free!

1xp for wounding someone, 5xp for killing someone, 50 - 150xp for running around a capture point doing nothing while your teammates take it, takes roughly 1000xp to level up...

good luck finding a session without toxic modders

I threw an iron ingot at a chicken and killed it, then I threw the chicken into a river and watched it float away while playing Bohemian Rhapsody.

A manly tear was shed that day.

10/10

This is a tough game to review. I wish there was an "okay" button, something inbetween the good and bad. Unfortunately, I have to give this game a thumbs down.

~~~PROS~~~
For $5, it wasn't the worst deal I've made... I spent $20 on Goat Sim and only played it for a couple hours.

The car customization is great, the police AI has VASTLY improved since Most Wanted, there are lots of races and events, and a decent selection of cars. The soundtrack isn't too bad, either.

In terms of visuals, this game looks pretty impressive. I have a GT 640 and can max it out in 1080p, which came as a surprise to me.

The audio FX are amazing, though I don't think the cars sound quite as "mean" as they did in MW.
~~~CONS~~~
I came from Need For Speed: Most Wanted with high hopes, and what I got out of this game was... uh... troubling, at best. The career in this game doesn't even compare to Most Wanted, and I mean that in a bad way. In Most Wanted, I spent hours replaying the career several different times, with different cars, I grew up with that game. Undercover, however... I kind of had to drag myself through the story. It was mediocre, at best. On top of that, the career mode seems to only have two difficulties; impossible, and ridiculously easy. One second, you win a race with the next opponent trailing 20+ seconds behind. The next, you get ripped a new one and end up in 8th place. It's really odd...

The multiplayer is a joke. Good luck finding a server. Also, your graphic schemes don't show up in multiplayer.

Menu navigation is NOT optimized for a mouse. In fact, I would unplug your mouse before you even play the game. All it could really do is get in the way.

Overall, I'd give this game a 4/10. If you want multiplayer, buy a different NFS.
