![]() We had the most fun with the DLC's other mod, Jump Nitrous, which - you guessed it - can be deployed in mid-air to propel your car forward as if rockets were attached, while colored exhaust fumes billow from the back of the vehicle. Drift Tires make it possible to pull off longer drifts, and they also cause colored smoke to spew forth from your wheels, a visual marker that's particularly useful and noticeable in multiplayer. Two new car mods comprise the game-changing piece of Terminal Velocity. And the airport's main runway serves as Most Wanted's longest straightaway, although you'll end up in the drink if you're too reckless. ![]() Off-road racers will enjoy the dirt floor and makeshift ramps of the half-finished terminal. It's also possible to drive around on the terminal itself, an undulating path that will let you get some big air. The terminal features narrow, winding avenues that are designed for the expansion's smaller cars and their tight handling. ![]() It adds the Hughes International Airport to Fairhaven City, a massive new area - the biggest in the game - that is broken up into three parts: one standard terminal, one that's under construction and the airport's runways.Įach section offers a unique vehicular playground to mess around in. With the DLC packs, Criterion is looking to redefine what's possible in Most WantedĬriterion is taking the same approach with the Terminal Velocity expansion to Most Wanted. That add-on, which brought a new stunt-oriented locale into the world of Paradise City, could legitimately be called an "expansion" rather than mere "DLC." Something that worked for Criterion in its pre-Need for Speed days was building a significant chunk of new content for Burnout Paradise's Big Surf Island DLC. Terminal Velocity ($14.99 / 1200 Microsoft Points) what worked and what didn't work," said Roberts. The title update also adds a Ram Chassis mod to the game, giving players a collision-friendly front end. The studio "wanted a more cinematic night," so nightfall will now drape Fairhaven City in almost complete darkness, making headlights matter. "We weren't happy with how night looked," Roberts told Polygon. With the new mechanics and areas, the studio is looking to redefine what's possible in Most Wanted, and pave the way for fans to sink dozens more hours into the game.Īlongside the DLC packs, Criterion will deliver a free Most Wanted title update with some tweaks to the game. In each piece of DLC, the studio is reaching back into history - into its own past, into the canon of car chase films and into the legacy of the Need for Speed franchise itself, respectively.Īt the same time, said senior designer Chris Roberts during a recent hands-on demo, Criterion is adding pieces to the game that evolve its competitive elements. It contained a handful of new cars, collectibles and events, but fans who are familiar with Criterion's racing heritage wanted something more substantial.Ĭriterion believes it is delivering the kind of content that will satisfy those fans with its next three Most Wanted DLC packs: Terminal Velocity, Need for Speed Movie Legends and Need for Speed Heroes. Need for Speed Most Wanted developer Criterion Games released the game's first add-on, the Ultimate Speed Pack, in December. ![]()
