What’s Bad about Need For Speed: No Limit

Similarly, there are also many bad things about Need For Speed: No Limits. These bad things contribute to the game’s limitations. Below are some of the significant limitations the game has.

 

You Can’t Play as Much as You Want

When you are starting, it’s easy to get lost playing Need For Speed: No Limits. You can play the game for hours without realizing it. However, as you progress further in the game, you will soon have a hard time playing as much as you want. Below are the reasons why:

1. Limited Gas Timers – The major limiter in this game is the Gas Timers that you will need to participate in races. In the beginning, this won’t be an issue since it automatically fills up once you rank up. But as you progress further, ranking up takes more time. You can choose to use the gold you earn to refill your Gas Timers, but it’s not advisable since you need to use them for something better.

2. Minimum Power Needed – Another limiting factor you will experience is the minimum power needed for certain races. Each race will have a suggested power needed for vehicles to participate in. This doesn’t mean you can’t participate if your vehicle’s power is lower than the ones recommended. However, doing so is a waste of Gas Timers since your chances of winning that race is very low. To reach the minimum power needed, you will have to upgrade your vehicle. You will need to earn the parts required to do the upgrade.

3. Vehicle Exclusive Races – The game has a lot of car series that you can participate in. But, these are vehicle exclusive. This means that you need to own a particular vehicle first before they unlock and provide you access to it. This also means you need to collect as many vehicles as possible to unlock the different car series available.

 

Need For Speed: No Limits Multiplayer

The only multiplayer mode that the game has right now is the Rival Races. It is a ghost-based multiplayer race. This means that you race against the ghost vehicle of other players. It’s just a typical race and it’s not even live. There aren’t any updates yet on whether the game will have a better multiplayer system or not.

Conclusion

Need For Speed: No Limits live up to its Need For Speed name. It provides gamers with good racing experience, a good line-up of supercars, and even a great campaign mode. However, the game has several limitations. But the main one is that there will come a time where you can’t play as much as you want unless you spend money. Nevertheless, it’s a fun and exciting game and you won’t regret playing it.
