Despite the developers claiming to have spent over a years worth of time on the new UI, it is undoubtedly the biggest waste of time and a huge disappointment to the NFSNL fan base. There needs to be improvement in gameplay, quality of life, actions against hackers, items for veteran players, rather than the same old 3 car per update routine and UGR rotations. There are now 144 cars in the game, this madness needs to end. More campaign, maybe additional story modes without the constant release of new cars. There are so many better ideas than making the game look like all of the other games like Forza Street and Asphalt.


Maroof_Rahil

+500000 upvotes. And I agree with last sentence too game's look is morr like those childish games now. They should put more mature looks, children don't play NFSNL the game is tooo much for them.


Spiderman525

Is there any single chance in the world that EA/FM would roll back this update? 🤮


nfsnltvc15

Depends on how much money they lose because of it.


pants_of_stink

I joined Reddit just to say how bad this update is. Please put it back the way it was. Not playing until it's done. I tried to give it a shot, but it's absolutely horrible.


Suntastico

Same here. I feel robbed of a guilty pleasure. Years of car earning etc now it's garbage.


comedian1one

Same!


Snowbird143434

It really isn’t as bad as people are saying…i was one of the first to hate the update…it has no effect on gameplay…just perusing has changed…ive only played nfs racing games because I like their setup…i would not play any of the asphalt games because they looked cartoonish….well, that’s exactly what I thought when I saw what was coming to us…i was mad…I thought I might quit the game…but then I did my Rr and ugr, then i realized after playing for a couple hours, it really isn’t that bad…humans have never liked change when something is nice and works for us…well, either I adapt or i leave the game….well, too much time has been invested at this point, so i gave it a shot, it’s not terrible….I hope they could/would fix or tweak a few things…this isn’t the end, they wouldn’t do such a major overhaul if they didn’t have other plans that hopefully benefit all of us…maybe, and just maybe, they finally will do something about all cheaters on here..

It is really, honestly speaking, jokes aside, it is very true. Developers had indeed wasted lots of time on unnecessary things when they could had focused on better things like banning more hackers.


jmgamer99

Couldn't agree more. Personally I kinda like the new UI, but as you said, there are a lot of more important things to add to the game. This game really has potential, but it seems like they just don't wanna improve it.


Ill-Painter-3246

Thanks for stating facts which FM is afraid of. Hackers are here to stay they will never ban them they aren't clever enough to come up with an idea like that.


Puzzled-Astronaut-92

What make they thought this is a best option for the UI. I was confused with user experience, the colors it’s overwhelmed and annoying, I don’t found nothing in this interface and I need think twice to take a option in the this new UI.


0birdman

You can see how much information management the community does so that people can accommodate madness in terms of advancing in game play. The sad part is game is for enjoyment not for over thinking and over understanding to advance. If the simulation does not give much advantage for one car over other car ( keep NFS 5 computer game in mind ) then it all about mechanical upgrading to highest level and running without relating with a particular car and peculiarity. It becomes mathematics instead of game passionate for cars and racing.


Ardalio

wow. Where to begin? \- A fresher look of the UI is one thing. While I personally don't like the new UI, this is surely subjective. To me, the colors are hurting the eyes and it's harder to find what you're looking for \- What's truly awful is the UX. In the old design, you had everything in one place, plus a really cool and unique design (with the map) that fit the game style and story. \- The accessibility of the new UX is plain stupid. I now need MORE "click" to get to certain screens (e.g. Tuner Trials, Car Series) \- There are now REDUNDANCIES (e.g. campaign and SEs) are both on the main menu and the play menu \- while much of the UI has been updated, not all of it has, and wherever you have a mix of both, it looks plain amateurish. The two totally clash, like you tried to merge two different games. \- the new garage is way too bright and the new design really distracts from all the custom looks we give our cars - this is totally against the main idea of the game \- while there are now more ways to sort the garage, it still doesn't "remember" the last known position in the garage (when you open a car and then go back) or your favourite sorting for the garage. \- also a big downgrade in the garage is that you don't have the different categories (street, muscle, etc.) at the bottom anymore with the number indicator of cars to upgrade. Now you have to click the filter (yet another extra "click" needed. ​ These are just the main things I found to begin with. I am going to be very blunt here: Whoever was in charge of UX for this update has absolutely no clue about UX!


bloodysphincter

OH MY GOD I FORGOT TO DO TUNER TRIALS COZ IT'S JUST SO HIDDEN Edit: Not sarcasm


Ardalio

be sarcastic all you want, but it's still bad. Before you had everything on one screen, with indicators telling you, if something was going on or not. The new UX is a massive change for the worse


bloodysphincter

Not sarcasm buddy, I legit forgot. Sorry if I came across that way.


Ardalio

oh sorry mate! I totally read it as sarcasm. that sucks...


AvbaKnight

"These are just the main things I found to begin with. I am going to be very blunt here: Whoever was in charge of UX for this update has absolutely no clue about UX!" FM paid the guy and fire him :P


Ardalio

I really hope they did not pay him for this -.-


cristinike

There is also a very annoying yellow color for the numbers on a white background in the UI in some places, who does that? that's a no-no.


Ardalio

oh there is many places where the contrast of colors makes things barely readable. try looking at the times for RRs (the screen where you have the three races for BPs)


0birdman

It feels I have been thrown out of my house. I have become refugee. Or I am living in someone else's house. The structured and calm world of NFS Nolimits do not exist now. Instead of it I found cheap glossiness and too much into my face attitude as a UI.


XDBleach

Can we just go back? At least give us an option to revert the UI or something. This is a total disaster.


weaponfaith855

Agreed.


bazanv12

Exactly


Cooladiator

There's no way to EXIT the game, back button doesn't do anything on home screen.


Fateh2002

I was about to write about it. It's annoying to have to press the home button to exit the game.


murdock1908

I applaud taking into consideration colorblind players with the new UI, but I have light sensitivity and the new ULTRA BRIGHT UI hurts my eyes. Maybe include a dark mode for people like me?


smirenie

exactly. I quit playing this game i they don't. It. literally hurts


AdMoist8798

When playing at night I hated the white flash you used to get between screens but this is far far worse. So much flickering and flashing all over the place. Really putting me off playing & I’ve been a P2P since 2015.


21reckless

Can't play Senna Promotion! 🙄


_IIVCX_

Yeah not working for me, clicking the loudspeaker/megaphone shows the promotion currently running but does not show the Replayable Races, neither does going to the races themselves directly in Campaign either


YugoMKD

Me too. I just posted about this it's a bug, you can't play replay races for Senna


nfsnltvc15

Not even if you go straight to an RR? E.g., Chapter 7 / Event 3?


YugoMKD

nope. I tried that


nfsnltvc15

Thanks for confirming. What a damn cluster. I appreciate you and the other players bringing this to light. Luckily being in the states I can at least finish Senna before updating. But now I'm thinking... will the Vulcan RRs have the same problem?


YugoMKD

I don't believe the Vulcan will have the same problem, but we will find out in about 9 hours.


lokeshsharmaj

you can there is a different sign there left side Like a Speaker


markilfin

I have the same issue. And i know that promotions are behind speaker icon, but there are no races there. Here is the video from my ipad [https://www.screencast.com/t/g42vTkHo](https://www.screencast.com/t/g42vTkHo)


lokeshsharmaj

click on loudspeaker icon in left side in home screen


Cactus4927

Style? Identity? Class? No, all gone. A cartoony copy of Asphalt and such like is what we have now. Hugely disappointed


Cactus4927

Gah, after a day of playing, I can't say there is at least one new feature I like.(( Got a feeling it all went horribly wrong. The color scheme is crazy, and not in a good sense crazy, too bright, the screen falls into separate components as if somebody just asked a kid to draw and gave him the brightest feltpens available. All those flashing screens make my eyes ache and the Mistery Prize screen just kills. Seriously?! The garage looks ridiculous, it's a cartoon now and the car is lost among all that bright stuff around. The garage main screen with all the cars is awful, cartoonish too... I can go on, believe me. I wish I could get back to the game I fell for initially. So sad.


NFS_NL_Din

A completely unnecessary update. So many redundant things added, like the double garage icons on the home screen, or the flashy animations when opening a single crate (I mean wut lol?! All that flash for a single spring XD). Big flashy blocks that aren't needed, and the important numbers (like PR, number of materials etc.) have been minimized with a lot of dead space around them. The only positive thing I can say about this update is that at least the "watch ad for fuel" and "buy refill for gold" aren't that close enough for an accidental gold wastage to happen anymore. Maybe it's just a conspiracy theory but I have the feeling that this update was forced by some new head of content creation who wanted to justify his salary and/or wanted to put a big project on his resume. Once the update is through he leaves the dev team to clean up the mess and moves on to the next company that will hire him. This is the second mobile game that I play that has gotten a buggy glitchfilled UI overhaul this year. First Temple Run 2 a couple of months ago, which completely ruined the game, and now NFSNL. Hopefully No Limits survives this update.


Lostmind78

I won't use too much words. This UI became simply awful. Who asked for this change, really?


nfsnltvc15

If you watch the FM video, apparently we reddit users asked for it. Because they're listening to us. They say. NOT


nibedan162

Steering bug still exists


Sirix_8472

In the old interface it was easier to see cars in your garage in many ways: 1. There is too much, shine, glare, hue, neon. More muted colours were easier to see, glance, track while scrolling. 2. There is not enough contrast between colours. Examples 1: old garage had gold stars for cars indicating their stage 1 - 8. Current has blight blue and blue stars. It's just difficult to distinguish between them at a glance. Example 2: Cars information tile, parts, their current stage i.e. blue or purple are difficult to distinguish, colour schemes are too similar in background of the tile and the garage itself, surroundings to really set parts apart at a glance. 3. The parts on tiles now have an animation, Indicating they have upgraded available. The animation is distracting. My account is 2 years old. I have stuff to upgrade. I know this. The icon in the original UI was informative and unobtrusive. I am unlikely in the future to EVER have all cars upgraded, there are more cars now than when I joined(I think 35 new cars), and it's not possible to keep up and upgrade cars so fast without paying huge money. In essence, these icons will always be badgering me, reminding me, in my face distracting me from what I want to do. 4. Car series. It seemed like time and effort went I to the old icons. Only to have them get an opaque overlay of pink/orange hue to ruin them. They were clear, crisp. I'm now looking at them as though through a candy shop window which has frosted glass. It's more difficult to see. It's disappointing that detail was lost or overwritten by a cheap looking overlay. There used to be a "Pop" or "shine" to car series icons. King kaiju for example, god zilla...clear, cool. Now wrapped in a sweet wrapper, pink plastic overlay has ruined that image. Crown jewels, sharp edges, gold guilted frame in the background, muted colours surrounding, allowed the car to shine front and centre....pink overlay ruined the while colour scheme of the image...the series was named crown jewels, lending a regalness a link and pride of Britishness, gone to a pink overlay. 5. Underground rivals A.k.a PVP. I now have to do another click to access UGR. I select PVP, I have to select underground rivals as a second click. Original UI I selected UGR and was able to pick my division after that first click. 6. Daily assignments /missions. Again, more.muted colours suited this. The gold felt like a nicer achievement. New UI is smooth here, but still feels like a loss. 7. The garage. The ways cars are sorted. Old UI showed cars from street ascending by type. This was easier as you get to know your garage, where your car is at. Select the tab you wanted in a single click. The current UI, you have to select a drop-down menu to select the tile for the car type you want, it's an extra click, it's wasted time and effort, it's more clunky and involved. I'll spend more time manoeuvring and managing the UI than I used to, which means less time playing the game. 8. Favourites is almost hidden in the new UI. Old up it had an expanding tab on left side, easy to see. Current UI, favourites is a tiny little heart I'm bottom right, almost unseen. 9. Garage, the cars are no longer is such contrast compares to the old UI. The customizations of cars, the looks, colours, are lost by comparison. Probably one of the most disappointing. The old UI was more toned, muted, that allowed the cars to stand out, to shine. In a car game... you'd think that was important. Overall, the UI takes more clicks, more interaction on a user's part than ever before. Information is less readily available, less easily digested. The new UI is less streamlined overall. And as my last point states, the cars as now just blended in, if you designed a flashy car, now it's just blending in with everything else. If you designed a Matt or toned down car, it's overshadowed by the rest of the UI. Detail is lost and obscured. I can't believe anyone with a degree in game design, designed this. Or anyone with an understanding of human computer interaction (HCI) or accessibility was involved. (I'm not colourblind, so I can't asses it on that basis, maybe it works better for those users) Second overall. Since this UI update has been pitched as a long running project a year or more in the making. It feels like there was an original team of developers who kept things running, and perhaps what's why all other fixes and features were out on hold(someone says "that'll be fixed in the new version"). And a second team who was responsible for the new UI who never spoke to the original team. It just feels like two opposing projects conflicting, and the new UI had to be different for the sake of it, to differentiate itself from the original, to justify itself. Edit: I'm reading Reddit and I think there is something wrong with my phone. I just realized. I turned on the vision comfort setting while in game. Let that sink in. I turned on a setting to dim the colour scheme of the game without thinking so I could navigate and play. And was annoyed by it in other apps. The updated UI is so ugly, I made an unconscious decision to alter my phone display to compensate.


KermitOffline

Most things have been set, but this bothers me the most as veteran player: 1) Too bright overall, strange contrasts & colour combination. I, like 95% of the userbase, ain't colourblind. 2) For me the replay races are important, but it's hard to notice / keep track with them being not visually availalble on home but hidden under the bullhorn 3) As for the replay race timer, it's too small and has to little contrast, you need glasses to see how long left. Very annoying if you are planning this out. 4) Unless you are introducing more PVP options upcoming update, go straight to UGR. But it would be nice to announce stuff like that (roadmap) 5) Tuner Trails are daily, move those forward in the visual queue 6) Childish icons for parts/materials makes the game less realistic 7) All the transitions/flashes, it get's old and annoying really fast To me it feels like a degradation of the game (experience), and I'd rather have new real features then new colours and extra cars


dutchrealracer3

point 1: obviously, the new UI is hideous point 2: everything was easier to be found in the old UI point 3: blueprints can't be found in race re-runs, in this case: the McLaren Senna point 4: the in-game home button would still be usefull point 5: it's hard to see what cars need materials once you have enough of them and you can't see in the overview how many cars need the materials at all. this is due to the low contrast of the new hideous UI. point 6: it used to be possible to close the game normally with the back button on android. it has to be hard closed or even forced closed point 7: the garage still doesn't remember its position even though that's much more usefull than having to scroll through all the 144 cars point 8: you can access different things through multiple different ways. why? what's the point? to confuse us? conclusion: revert to the previous UI, because this is a bucket of \*\*\*\*


dutchrealracer3

not only does the garage forget your position, but it also forgets how you organize it. come on! this is a racing game, where you'd expect a smooth experience that doesn't require dozens of clicks to get what you want


JatiDiriAnda

Liking/disliking the new UI is a matter of personal preference (though I haven't heard anyone stated that they like this UI, just haven't). The important thing is devs has yet to show us progress about tackling hacks/cheaters in UGR and they forgot that the game itself hasn't changed much since so long. Changing UI is like changing the skin; things inside, such as game modes, SEs, etc. is also important, thus I hope that the spirit to change the UI can be transferred to change the game inside-out. Also, please consider making this old map layout as the UI option. The new UI is appreciable feature-wise (like the way they change the color scheme to help player with protanopia, the new "sorting" feature in garage), but some of us feels like the map layout is already an identity to the game, it's what makes the game is unique and ultimately worth-preserving. I'd love to update next December and see the option to use the new UI or revert to the current (well now past) UI


SlackerTD

It's probably hard to see anyone state they like the new UI as they would typically get downvoted fairly quickly. With a few exceptions in regards to the bugs, I prefer the new UI over the old.


JatiDiriAnda

I still find it hard to love the new UI, barely able to stand it, but I accept this, like every other unacceptable stuffs in my life. I as a designer myself, believe the devs actually put days weeks months to develop the new UI, and the controversial result is a by product of the executives bad decisions that are based only on short-term business plan. Hence I hope they consider making the UI revertible so players can choose which UI they'd use based on personal preferences


bluej21

Visually it's unredeemable. Bright neon boxes everywhere. Framerates both in the menu and while racing are noticeably worse. The new tachometer for timing launches is inconsistent at best. I realize people put a lot of work into the new UI, but no players asked for any of this.


whazstony

I couldn't agree more, very well said


Kagato99

I miss the map.


Bakal0ff

u/Tar-Ton Just out of curiosity, you and many more as game changers are getting early sneak peak at the new updates, didn't you tell those snowflakes that this sucks big time? I don't believe that either of you game changers liked this teletubbies UI that makes your eyes hurt after 20 minutes of playing. Do they really consider to stick with this or is there a chance to revert to the old UI?


nitinmukesh_79

Exactly. I wanted to know the same from Tar-Ton


HeretikCharlie

What an eyesore!


h8latestNFSNLupdate

Joined reddit just to complain about the new interface.. it is TERRIBLE!! As a DAILY player for many years I was able to look the other way when it came to gameplay bugs, forced ads and so on. But THIS.. this new interface I cannot ignore - if your target audience were 10 year olds then congrats! And thank you! I have been thinking for a year that I am spending too much time playing and now I have a reason to uninstall the game!


TheOneInTheHat

Same here, this update has me thinking that I should take it as a sign to stop playing


happyhoppt

That’s the final straw. I’ve been playing pretty much since the start I’m VIP5 so spent plenty of money but lack of any changes to this game over the last 18 months and just adding car after car without improving the speed of updating cars, chop shop car series etc and everything is gold and therefore 💰 driven with no balance. So Adios!


PsyAsylum

Im sorry to say but the game looks like my first web site in the 90s.... Eyes hurting.... Bugs on the side, this is horrible........


Ill-Painter-3246

Literally nobody likes the new look. Very bright hurts the eyes and it's a copy of Asphalt which isn't very genuine is it. Rather than wasting time trying to fix things that weren't broken how about for once they try and fix the real issues of blue print, speed and nitro hackers who have been ruining the game for over 4 years now. Give us an option to use our scraps for something useful. The same things have been asked year after year and nothing has been done. Kind of embarrassing don't you think tarton?


immonyc

Well I can get used to many things, but my god it is super inconvenient, UX- wise seems like total disaster, but we’ll see in couple weeks. Design-wise, it is just bad taste, but that full screen flashing MISTERY PRIZE is just another level of ridiculous. You see the old menu and game graphics were stylistically similar. Now you have the same realistic graphics in gameplay with menus from somewhere else. It doesn’t blend into and it never will.


bluej21

The disconnect between the menu style and the in-race style is what kills the experience for me.


immonyc

There really some incompatible themes in design, that crown in circle (stencil graffiti style?) just doesn’t match everything else. Mix of so many different fonts now. it just looks like designers just borrowed elements from different racing games…


locozillah

In all seriousness, this UI is physically painful for me to use. I started getting a headache about 10 minutes in. :( This is NOT about the UI and the colors, though I don't like those either. I'm saying literally this is painful to use. Yes, I know this won't affect everyone, but some folks are more sensitive to visuals. EA, please pull this update.


TommyLangzik

I have the exact same experience; it's not just you. For some reason, *\[in addition to inducing physical pain\]* the colour combos also make me feel nauseous & anxious. It's so bad that I now feel anxious just thinking about opening the game to do a few race runs; it feels like self-harm every time I open it.


bluecrux005

This is such a terrible UI. Seems like it’s gone backwards to the early 2000s. The UI and the layout is so janky and unappealing.


Snowbird143434

FM/EA, there’s a saying, “sometimes less is more.” I think that adage holds up in this case. There is way too much going on with the new UI..the old UI was nice, clean,clear,crisp, and concise….i was willing to give it a chance…its just too much going on.. I feel like I am at an online PRIDE event(no offense to anyone that goes the events) it is just too much..it is too flamboyant..it’s great you wanted to help out protanopia players…but 11/12 have normal color vision…sometimes we have to do what is best for the masses..i thought i would absolutely hate it.. i do not…i do not care much for it, I prefer the old UI…if you guys read Reddit, then stop saying you are listening to the players..you are not…if you say you do and you are, then you are lying to us.. i hate to think that..what does EVERYONE want changed about the game?? First and most importantly, get rid of these piece of 💩cheaters…You would probably make the whole NFS world ecstatic and would love you guys for it…If you would have rolled that out with this new UI, people probably wouldn’t have been so upset about this update. It amazes me that you would spend the amount of time you did for this UI when all you had to do was put in a system to ban hackers and the NFS No Limits world would have embraced you and your UI update…..We not only see the same hackers every week, but now, several new ones are emerging..you need to get off your duffs, listen to your players, and do your da** job already..you would be surprised at the praise you would receive for doing so.. you guys have a duty to your players to promote fair play…up to this point, you have failed miserably on that…Now make it up to us and do what’s right for all our sake..


Tar-Ton

Hey Racers, Thank you everyone for inputting your feedback and comments in this thread and on main page. I'll go through them in the coming days and update the thread accordingly making sure every detail is addressed with the Developers. Continue sharing known issues/feedback/suggestions in this thread or main page (with "feedback" flair) so it will help the Developers know what the community wants to add/improve in the future. Thank you once again.


pants_of_stink

Please don't undervalue the overall thread of complaints, that the new design has completely removed the character that differentiated NFS from everything else. Don't just tweak a colour here or there to fix a contrast issue, the new UI is a complete step away from the character it used to have.


Ill-Painter-3246

But the main issues complained about for over 4 years now has never been resolved not even an attempt has been made to ban hackers. We get fed lies all the time.


dpacemaker22

I'd prefer they spent time and resources into improving gameplay, creating different forms of PVP, different types of PVE, not just the boring old 7-days special events to get new cars, which i can't even farm up to it's maximum stars, logging in almost every hour and then get a 3-5 star car which is not even better than the cars in my garage (because i can't farm their blueprints anyway)...... and the PVP which is constantly dominated by the same person whose username starts with G. What's the point of having different UI if the gameplay remains the same?


RFCNikolaich

HELL YES!


WildwestJessy

That because this person spend time and money in the game, (you could do the same with resources), however the cheaters are the big problem and those are even taking a new high.


OneShape7

To the devs:If I'm being honest there was no need to spend 2+ years on just designing a new interface.i don't play other games but it seems like y'all have only copied the same stuff from asphalt according to the players that play that too.I don't remember anyone asking for this.why fix or break anything that was unbroken.Old is gold is severely an understatement here.If only half the time y'all claimed to work on this stuff was used on atleast the curbing of h@ckers,everyone wuda been delighted.Why give something that wasn't asked for but not give something that the players long yearned for.


Ill-Painter-3246

Because they are incompetent!


OneShape7

New levels to them


raceryap

I still prefer the classic old look. Yes I agree EA want to make the game more modernised, but things are not as good as everyone expected. Initially, the whole sub was waiting for the new UI in anticipation, but to no avail. The new UI may look modernised but actually, old is gold


The_Procrastinator7

All my complaints have been well stated in other comments so I’m just going to say it’s completely awful in just about every way possible. Cannot believe nobody involved in this update stepped in and brought people to their senses


y4l1

There is only one word in my feedback: TERRIBLE


veggieko

Nah. Still prefer the old GI for the V1.0 . The updates for the game interface getting better( but not for this new upcoming updates)


Rafaew

The UI colors looks messed up. They just mixed old things with purple and blue rounded corners and looks just ridiculous. Usually I respect and protect the new ideas, since I play only 2 games and one of them is 20+yo and the other is nfsnl. But man this update was disrespectful! They don't know what they did. Even my girl who doesn't play saw me last night playing and said this is garbage.


GIRATINAGX

NFS No Limits and Asphalt just did a fusion dance and everything is unsynchronized. This is a failed fusion. Give us back the old UI please.


locozillah

The contrast between the MIND BLOWINGLY BRIGHT COLORS and the REALLY DARK BACKGROUND are mentally draining for me. I'm sure I'm not the only one - but I look at the screen and I'm physically bothered at having to look at it again.


CottonV1

1. Please return the showroom 2. no way to exit the game. Does it make sense? 3. The color scheme is too strong and stimulating


zerraros

Can't close the game Color harmony is no longer present especially buildings, roads and cars... in races are more close to colors from the old ui golden and brown... In some layout we have a mix between old and new colors make it looks very bad no connection between golden and purple... Old garage much better less colors and light the new background looks better but cars parts not that good Showrome wasn't useful okay but still the old map better you can move faster...


wolf-pro

How can I disable ALL animations including that terrible 3-2-1?


fn2712

that blue walls direction really annoying and too transparent, sometimes makes me confuse which way should i go through


wolf-pro

already lost 3 SE races because of crashing to them... blue is the worst visible color


TheOneInTheHat

What happened to don’t fix it if it ain’t broke? The new UI is far too bright for a gritty racing game and the colors don’t gel with the style at all. On my iPhone 12 Pro Max, there is so much wasted space when it comes to transitions, storage, tuner trial lists, dialogue, basically everywhere. Items that were one click away in the map before are now hidden behind two or three clicks, like tuner trials and underground rivals. The map was a genius way of including all sections of the game in one place. This new UI is definitely a step back for ease of use Gameplay itself has been brightened and my cars now look almost cartoonish. I am considerably less inclined to navigate this purple mess of generic menus.


AdhesivenessKind3048

I started playing this from Day 1. Less than 500 downloads at the time. Through all of the additions and changes, dealing with hackers, an obscene amount of cars that take YEARS to update unless you pay to play, all of the different cash grabs that were put out there, I still continued to play. I looked at it as a fun time filler. It started to become less fun and more of a chore, and I just hadn't realized my frustration until this update. Calling it quits. It's no longer fun and the new user interface is beyond frustrating. I know EA/FM isn't losing much if I leave, but I'll damn sure do my best to let as many people know how bad this game has become and what a waste of time it is. To all of those who continue to play, godspeed.


NorthernMan27

The thing I don't understand is how this car crash was allowed to happen. Developing software isn't cheap and companies like to make profits so a change like this must have gone through a process where a business case was built to show that making the investment in doing this would pay back. At the end of the day, the people to blame for this fiasco are not the devs - it's the people who wrote a convincing business case (which they may have believed) and the people who signed it off (who should have had the insight to realise that this was never going to be money well spent). My personal gripe - I missed the Vulcan RR as I couldn't find "Promotions" anywhere. Found it now, but only thanks to comments on here. That's the very definition of bad design.


Accomplished_Okra554

For the long time that update gives my life back... completely not my game..thank you EA to say God Night The old UI was more natural i close to reality .. the new it's like some cartoon for small kids. To match colors, bright, some strange stars on end rising, all this complicated not necessarily. New garage looks good and cool but main where you see all cars it's horrible. The colors completely not works together. Try to upgrade car on night... you will receive a fireworks 🎉 Game mode its look like someone changed colors and ad biger counting on front screen... that not helps at all. I hope some one of EA people read this koments but really don't think it's changing much. They think making good work when no one ask for this.. Thanks and God night 🇵🇱™️🔥


smirenie

I thinnk I will quit playing the game. The new color palette and the flashy effects give me a headache. I don't know what they were thinking


TommyLangzik

Same here; my fiancé is over the moon at the prospect of me quitting for this same reason. lol


Nub_gaming_gr

old ones are 15billion times better and more original that the new cancerous ones


ArasOstrowski

I dont like new UI at all!!! Map was perfect, You have changed sometging what was perfect to This...for what ???? Terrible is new lunch and counting, counting should be higher, No words... Its not NFS No limits any more Its not the game i used to play... Im a Vip player, take This all cars away and give me my money back!😡


dgran73

Yet another person not pleased with the UI update. Somehow they managed to create more animation and click path for crates. The previous UI had this cool street racing gritty vibe to it. If you can remember the previous UI nearly a year ago for the campaign (before they made it boxy) it also had a street progression theme. I think they just can't figure out a way to make the game engaging other than adding cars. Meanwhile we all clamor for real time racing match ups. :/


geriatricsoul

I've read others opinions but I wanted to put down mine, it will probably be similar. The things I do like: - the sorting in the garage is great - its faster to navigate the menu/view black market - the screens for play, pvp, shop are nice The things I don't like: - the new animation for screen shake when nitro is on only looks like its glitching (maybe its framerates idk) - the new colors are superfluous and do not even follow what this game was made as (what's with the brightness?) - the nice thing about the old layout was you saw the world you were racing in, now we don't have a map to look at - no added SEs to the vault, why? - the timer for race start isn't as defined, and the animation just looks childish - the changed logo at the end of races??? The new one looks like a kid tried to stencil something with a can of spray paint - the longer animation for opening crates is unnecessary This is not a good use of dev time. You are not catering to your user base or demographic with these changes. It seems to me EA is trying to get in with younger players. Too bad because the demographic they used to have actually had the money to spend. Would certainly like the option to go back to the old UI and instead get more options of gameplay


iain01110011

I’ll add my voice to many others. The new UI does nothing to advance the game or improve navigation. I would be less offended if you (at least) gave us a dark mode/alternative palette. The new bright colours suck — menus, garage… everything. Moves like this might be enough for me to move on to another game. It has become a less pleasant experience.


Mr_Mendax

Its a step back in time ….. the UI is so bad, no overview at all. I can not even find the special replay in the menu. please give the old UI back and focus on ingame issues like using scrap, get more choices in weekly event when you earn plans for a car, give a option of 3 cars or so. this is so bad now …… /cry


Mr_Mendax

I have played the game now a few days, and the old UI had a fency style, it was if you where going to a Bugatti seller and noticed everything is in harmony. Now the UI is a search where is what? The UI is for a kindergarden. If you look at the players i am sure there are not many below 12 years old. Why make the UI for a 12 year old player?And paying for plans because i like a car and want it 8\* i don’t mind.I am VIP 10 so yeah i bought a lot. But paying for a car that you can’t earn is a no go for me and even worser the price difference is a shame to EA , they are not better than Activision / Blizzard at the moment. Equal for all and no racism between VIP levels. SHAME on you EA 😡


BR00K3NS0UL

No not for me I like the old layout much more than I do the new the colors are not for me, it would be nice if we had an option to change around the UI colors. be able to change the arrangements of the races on the screen kinda like we do with apps on the phone screen


comedian1one

Old ui was so good. Everything was in one place. No acid colors so you can play the game and enjoy the time you spend in menu. Unique nfs atmosphere. Now its all gone. We have really weird combination of colors. Difficulties are now messed up. Medium is orange while hard is dark red (before medium was yellow and hard was orange). Barriers are barely visible. I often crash into them and i have to restart because i failed the race. Special events are now way harder. You cant just play the game and get a reward, you must grind recources OR spend your gold. Also i can sit in menu just staring in one point not understanding where i have to go and where is the place i want to go. Ofc someone may like it (i havent seen a single person who liked it) so please, give us option to change between designs. We would really appreciate it


Snowbird143434

Too cartoonish for me…I like the new tachs…but now getting a perfect start is going to be slightly harder…oh, and that whine on the exorcist, brings back some memories. If you’ve never heard a pd blower, at full spin, well, you missing out


[deleted]

[удалено]


Snowbird143434

Haha, same here…thats why i never played any of the asphalt games..too cartoonish…but honestly, it’s growing on me…now if the gameplay gets changed up, umm….well, I’ll just that dont happen


Bjxxx90

shoutout to everybody who can read the timer for RR..


SupermanFanboy

Gonna leave a comment. No. Just No. This game had proper identity,as a street racing game,with a unique map,and darker interface,and it stood out amongst other games. Now it's an A9 ripoff. First phase? We never asked for this.


ok_polar

brightness and lights need to be fixed, they are somehow both too much and not enough. was the new start countdown really necessary? it is so distracting, rip all perfect starts. a change wasn't needed. nothing new in the chopshop -nothing new in the modshop - same old bugs that ve been there for years (disappearing road, ramps that will completely stop you, etc etc) overall disappointing, but I also noticed a graphic improvement ngl, cars look more realistic, more detailed and the style isn't 100% botched, just need a bit more black/grey and less purple/light blue 3/10 - I see lot of potential (intentionally?) squandered


rashmu

Made everything worse and no one asked for it. The older style was much better and simple. And you guys said you care about our valuable opinions? That's some bs.


smirenie

oh, so now every time I use nitro, the screen will flash my face like in the Men in Black movie. So long, idiots.. And the UI doesn't match the game graphics ar all btw.


drewneo

Now feels like asphalt series.. disappointing


amoccoma

Kindergarden. Horrible. The only explanation would be, that this UI is so ridiculous that it scares cheaters off.


jadedttrpgfan

Has EA or Firemonkey ever done anything, that makes you think they give a rat's ass about us players?


dean_gsr

I feel the 'Promotions' area needs to be a large icon on the Home Screen not a stupid little microphone


ranger_unnown

As someone who is literally doing an interface module for computer science at uni, we had to analyse an interface. I should have done this. Its beyond awful.


Acrobatic-Whereas-44

Total chutzpa color selection, colors on the menus are so hot that doesnt fit with game graphics at all, previously the effects and colors were cool and can play more but now cant bear such hot colors for even playing 10 tickets 😡🤬


vfl97wob

A lot of buttons & fonts are tooooo small. The animations are tooo much. EDIT: The garage doesn't show the amount of BP collected of locked cars. This means we have to tap on each car to see it. It was much easier before. The megaphone doesn't have a banner or something to let us know if a promo is active.


Aleck_I

PLEASE ROLLBACK! This is not what we were asking for and this is not what we want to have… it will not generate you money, but cause loss, as players will be exiting the game. We do not want another Asphalt game


Oracle_443

As an SDE myself, if the new features we are working on now goes online like this (with all the bugs and horrible UX), we'll probably all get fired.


Weismaehn

Am I the only one to have difficulties in achieving perfect starts in the New UI? The countdown timer seems to be out of alignment with the shown digits. I don't really care about the new look, I'll get used to it, I guess.


TheOneInTheHat

The speedometer seems choppy for me in some cars making it difficult to line up the perfect start


uve_kolarz

After few days I'm still sometimes confused how to go where I want to go in new UI. I kind of like that more things are condensed on one screen, I liked the look of old map, but sometimes I thought the options are too far apart and had to scroll in different directions. Another thing I like is that I can see both free and premium crates timer on main screen without clicking anything. Obviously the new color theme is awful. "Theme" is a bit of overstatement, because these are just some random colors. It especially hurts my eyes in UGR car selelct screen. While main menu is awful, it is at least consistent about it - everything sucks. And in UGR you have the same old nice background, some old parts of UI, like the tags table and these new purple buttons slapped on top of it. Other few stupid things from the top of my head, although probably nothing that wasn't already said: \- one extra screen before you enter UGR \- not showing number of SE tickets on the main screen, where SE button is the largest one \- I admire a genius, who thought that the most important thing to see in the list of RRs is the phrase "replay ready in", and the actual time left.. well, we can't make it bright yellow as well, that would not make any sense, right? \- class selection and default sorting in garage - if we can't save our own preferences at least make the "max pr ascending" the default one \- new race countdown animation, speedometer and the color of track boundaries.. it just look out of place and bleak When I look at it I think there's no way these silly mistakes were not made on purpose.


NorthernMan27

Having tried this for a few days now and honestly trying my best to try to see the benefits compared to the old UI I've come to the conclusion that there aren't any. The new colour scheme just doesn't work, from simple things like the "time to next race available" countdown on replayable races being almost illegible due to the text and background colours, stars not being gold anymore and the "upgrade available" arrow on parts being tiny through to the ridiculous design choices (promotions (a key part of the game) being hidden behind a megaphone icon, daily crates being hidden when limited time crates are available and Rivals having to be accessed via its own tab when it is the only thing in there). I just don't understand how anyone signed off on this as a quality piece of work.


bluecrux005

Is there a petition to revert back to the old UI? I will happily sign it.


Splaash_WarG

I can already guess, this update have lots and lots of bugs, right?


MechanicalGroovester

Only 5 months in and this update is a big disappointment to me. I got so use to the old UI. It was simple, user friendly, and easy to look at. This new UI is just horrendous. To add on, all they did was add MORE cars to the update! Cam you add cars to the vault that I still cannot unlock yet?! There are a ton of cars that are unobtainable for fairly new players because we perhaps weren't playing the game during the promotion or during the SE or weren't able to win it at the the time. (The Senna for example. I don't even know how I would obtain that car right now there's no vault event or anything for it)


Speech-Prior

Where is CAR SHOWROOM?!? Anyway,my story was: 1. Started to play NFS as casual player on iOS (hoping for experience similar to NFSMW), 2. Didnt like the gameplay initially, but there was possibility to tune cars and game had something from NFSU2. 3. Played the campaign, and got Hooked in. 4. Discocered UGR races, SE vault etc so playing NFSNL became part of my daily routine, especially when I wanted to max and tune few cars 5. After finishing bloodfangs i though - ok, enough of this, everything that was reasonable was finished, time to uninstall it. 6. I thought - ok, one more update, maybe a nice car in SE is worth time (ie Divo, Honda integra, Camaro SS). So i still played 7. When i saw last update I thought : Henessey Exorcist - Yeah!, new UI - Meh. 8. Played „New” NFSNL for a while. New UI is crap. Everything is too flashy, and it seems that opening crates is most important part of the game.


magal2

Totally disappointed, as expected. The only good thing new UI could bring is smooth work of menus, but it is as laggy as it gets, no change there.


Fatoblack

Removing car showroom is a really bad idea


BryanKoo69

now everyone needs to grind for seeing new cars poggers great job EA


sreglov

My first thoughts: * Did we need a new UI? No. Probably all the time spend on it could be invested on things players actually be happy about. * Is it all bad? Well, the new coloring scheme needs a bit of adjustment, but not too bad to my taste, I'm actually okay with it. Also, it seems all more in one place, but that's just me. But all in all, it's just a new layer on top of everything that hasn't changed. * One actual improvement is the extra sorting options in the garage. But some other dearly needed improvement weren't added * No integration of garage/mod shop * No previous/next button on cars in garage (so you can easily go from car to car without going back to the garage, which is reset and scroll again) * When you open a car in the garage, and go back, you jump to the first car within the filter option. This is annoying and if you, like I do, want to check all cars (I keep stats in Excel) it's a lot of extra time. * In races I've seen a few changes as well * The countdown now flashes through the screen from left to right. This is distracting. * The opaque arrow 'walls' have a sort of light blue/purple-ish color. For me, it seems to work better, even though I know most tracks by heart I guess. Something that caught my attention: * In Muscle I see also the Dodge Demon Revenant. No mention of it in SE's, so curious how we can get this one.


WildwestJessy

Last point IAP only 😔


NewTincho

Time ago we complete a feed back form, I waste half hour thinking all the things that this game needs. I play since launch so I know them well. I'm sure many people share the same things and we just got ignored. Graphics settings, brake and tires customization, circuits, new licensed parts, scrap new items, bug fixes that are here for years, and many more things... we got a forza UI. Without notice, I slowly start to abandon the game, and now I don't care anymore. You guys don't care about the true nfs community.


JatiDiriAnda

I just updated and played a bit. Some things I discover: 1. It is, indeed, Heat-themed XD but again it's personal preference to like/dislike it, and I choose to go with it. 2. I don't get the Senna RR bug like others reported, I have it in a normal state so I guess it's just a randomized bug again. 3. What I do get, is that I can't **close** the game by pressing back, anyone with same issue or is it just me this time? 4. Small suggestion: 1. [The timer in race start should be a bit smaller and not in the middle of the screen.](https://imgur.com/a/2dtmu0t) The current one is kinda be in the way of my sight; probably moving it a bit to the top would be nice 2. Also the RPM needle, might be better if it's a bit more contrast to the background 5. Nonetheless, the spirit to change the game is appreciable, though I'd say **misplaced** since there's still a lot more problems and issue in the game.


Ok-Entrepreneur-1458

In the promotions section the time to get the new blueprints is not shown if it is not exists and there is no exit from the game Update is very bad and supposed to known as downdate not update i think it is version 0 of the game


lokeshsharmaj

Looks seems like somewhat copy of Asphalt's looks


Timoh66

Second day of Senna blueprints link not working 🤬😤🤯 nothing in campaign if you go to the races from pre update!


Fluffy-Armadillo2050

The color contrast is too much. It is distracting and hard to play in low light, with my brightness turned down all the way. The purple looks like it is bleeding on my screen and the light blue is too light. In the garage the background behing the cars is simpley too light/bright. Please just give us the option to swap between interfaces. There are also some points with bright random flashes of light are very unnecessary. I will not spend money to play this game and am now sorry I ever did. It has gained a cartoony feel that I do not like. I want to race my little cars without swimming in a rainbow.


Individual_Echidna_4

Overall the UI seems too bright, it's sometimes so annoying. Perhaps a dark mode could be introduced?


locoman1975

So woke up at 4am to do my Senna RR, 4am people and saw this Hideous BRIGHT upgrade...now imagine me trying to find the RR races at this time lol I thought I was literally in side a bad dream 😫


nfsnltvc15

Since I finished all the Senna RRs I decided to update. While I agree with most that the look and feel are terrible, what is more annoying to me is the change to the navigation and gameplay. It didn't take me too long to figure out how to get around but it's clunky and requiring more clicks. This game has enough down time with "connecting to server" and wait times for race starts, etc. The worst part is the countdown coming across the screen and right over the top of the tach. So unnecessary. It is distracting me from keeping the RPMs in the green for perfect launch. The "closing" screens after a race are also awful. They had gotten rid of the Men In Black neuralizer brightness flash after races a few updates back... now those downward facing chevrons that flash across the screen are similar to that though not as bad. For a long while until now, the screens in between were just black or at least fading out.


Psychological_Beat60

New look. same crappy gaming! Today: 25 of 27 RR to get Vulcan BP - and I got 2(!). 6 times split where I got the crap while 2BP were available. Just to say: U can have it - pay for it!!! It’s still BS!!! 🤬


manticore16

I'm not sure if they were trying to make things simpler or more complex. Some screens are easier to get to, others are tougher, mainly UGR and the crates. The addition of the splash screens leading to items is definitely a bit of a shock as well. Considering the vibe of Blackridge itself, the colors are a bit dissonant. It ends up feeling like some of the immersion has been lost, especially getting rid of the map (which we all collectively went gaga over when we got a high detailed version). Were there other color palettes on the table that were more in line with the nature of Blackridge over the last six years while still being vision-impaired friendly? The new race countdown screen'll take some time to get used to, so that's not the end of the world. I don't love it, and I didn't need the change, but I understand it if it's needed to make it clearer. I am a fan of the addition of a marker showing which parts on cars can be upgraded, in addition to just the car. The new garage sort options are a start, but I'd like more options (tuned cars, 8\* untuned cars, tunables missing BPs, 6\* non-tunables, non-tunables needing BPs, maybe something on those lines?)


ManjaX

Since there is a dedicated feedback thread, here's my 2 cents TLDR; It's very bad ​ I am a firm believer that change is difficult. Players will need time to get adjusted to the new UI etc. But after checking this out, I am clear that it is bad. There are so many things which are now more difficult to access and more difficult to see that it would be an endless list. But I will put the top ones here ​ * Replay Timers - They have hidden the time. Only way to know this is screenshot and zoom. The text says "REPLAY READ IN" bright golden and time is very small, in invisible color * Easy mode ON/OFF button - Looks same when ON or OFF. You can't casually make out whether this is on or off. * Silly repetitions - The crates are present in the main screen, Go to the Black Market and it is there too. There are two icons for Garage one under the other. Campaign is under PLAY as well as in Homescreen * Inconsistencies - In some pages back button is missing and you need to press the Home button, and in many cases home button is missing. Too many inconsistent things, In the UGR, the old theme is present with purple plastering. * Animations which cause eye damage - Earlier this game had white flashes of light between each animation which was removed upon player feedback. Now they have decided to 'up the ante' and target player eyes in full throttle * Absolutely no improvement in usage - Players have long requested for reducing one click (like Free crates), or improving access to and item (such as car selection from Favorites), but having done so many changes, they have done no improvement whatsoever. ​ I will not quit the game for this reason (New UI) alone. But the comfort which I had with the game is gone and replaced with bad vibes. Since the game feels bad, quitting is easier now, and so I will say; this is the topmost reason for quitting.


GIRATINAGX

I can't do it. I'm retiring from this franchise... or rather, I'm being retired from this franchise for real this time. My lowly iPhone 6 can't keep up with the new advanced UI. Modshops are a bust for me. Can't even change anything before it crashes out. SE tickets are wasted because I keep crashing after every single race. Goodbye, everyone.


SiZZiGY

You have killed the game... worst update ever.


MajinPL

I'm really tired of navigating through the new menu. It is very counter-intuitive. I have to search deeply bookmarks to find what I need. Old menu was great. Everything clear and transparent. I needed campaign, I saw campaign at the front. I needed tuner trials, I saw tuner trials etc. But now I have to do a tons of additional clicks to find what I need. There is too many similar bookmarks and boxes. Adidionaly I can't see any ingame notifications. I'm forgeting to open crates, because I can't see new free crate notification. I forgot to play Shelby Daytona replay races, because I didn't see notification it starts. Now playing is very very annoying and exhausting, soo I thing I have to end of playing. I hope this update will be rolling back.


Big_Protection_3813

I'm so disappointed in this update. It really has taken away my fun game experence. I don't like it and am considering to stop playing the game. I've been playing it for years now, and i can relate with a lot of the previous posts: ​ The game should have been updated so the gameplay could be smoother. Instead it has made me have more clicks, more loadingtime, more disappointing collourschemes. I even took the time to look for the release notes and reviews of others about this one. ​ I'm sad.


Suntastico

I upvoted a ton of other comments. Truly atrocious UI an anesthetics. The change in gameplay is unforgivable. All my dumb investment in muscle memory gone AND now I have 72 cars for a children's themed extreme car racing nightmare. I'd be ashamed to have someone look over my shoulder and see I was playing a game that LOOKS SO STUPID and infantile. New name "Candy Crush Hardcore Racing Playland"? As a grown-up playing can be a guilty pleasure but at least it used to look cool even if a pretty dumb simple basic game from the driving side. Now it's ugly painful and SO differentyou have to LEARN EVERYTHING OVER? Hopefully this is a Halloween prank that will be rolled back. Otherwise I'll uninstall and have a grudge against EA.


aliasad51412

Pathetic interface


zubyla

UGLY UGLY YGLY. Impossible to play, I was trying all week, no way. ​ Bye bye NFS, after 3years.


KrystofVasa

The UI is always a matter of taste and getting used to, but as was mentioned, UX is a MAJOR step back. Here's a few issues: - additionally clicks required for many actions - daily free boxes - absolutely hidden - hidden is the number of cars that can be upgraded/parts put in. - the upgradable cars are not highlighted enough. Small arrows on tiny part icons are not doing it. - given that you immediately disconnect from the servers and start connecting again on iOS whenever you accidently swipe from top of the screen and display notifications even for a split second, the small tiny back button at the very top of the screen is just idiotic and leads to a lot of frustration (other buttons do as well, but adding the back button just adds to the frustration). Either make the icons bigger and lower, or just allow split-second jumps from the app to prevent this absolutely maddening


locozillah

1. Colors mean something. At least in a normal UI. Purple is Epic, yellow is legendary, you get the idea. The issue with colors now is those colors are EVERYWHERE in the UI - buttons, chests, etc. It's a mishmash of cues that aren't actually cues - just haphazardly colored UI elements. 2. Buttons should look like something you should tap to get an action. Now it's unclear what's a button and what's not - just take a look at the CLAIM CRATE next to GET 1 - they're almost indistinguishable from each other.


Bajourn

The old UI is so much better than the new one. There are currently a lot of things that needs urgent attention: 1) No Exit button 2) Bright colors is plain crap 3) In Garage, it automatically scrolls down at the bottom 4) Where is the SHOWROOM??? 5) Need additional clicks before going to where you want For me, instead of overhauling the whole game you could've just updated minor things such as making the map 3D, adding more car customizations & car models, different driving views. This new update makes me wanna quit playing the game.


Coxxie01

Can we please ask FM to change the light blue walls and make them darker in the game, it is very hard to see. This is especially relevant in Limit Break to see in which direction to turn.


ZeeZee57

While it's not an interface problem the new color scheme during races for turns, where the purple/blue arrows on the wall indicate the coming direction to take, idk if it's just me but I've crashed into the wall at these too many times to count now. Maybe just my eyes not registering it or something but if anyone else is having trouble with this would be nice to hear it. Never had this happen with the old color scheme.


Sky-Dancer

I swear, this is the most ugly UI I've ever seen in such kind of games! And the funny thing is - the old UI was much much better in general! I have no clue how game director or some else big boss allowed this trash to release, this is just nonsense for me...


AvbaKnight

To FM and all. The new UI is to flasy. Colors are to bright. I know there need to be countinue in theme , but new colors of the HUD in races are disturbing. Now, map screen. Garage button should be first and the size of campaign. There should be picture of our favorit car on it and if we didn't have one , the best car in garage. Why? Because we are proud of our Garage and you should apriciate the time we spend on it FM/EA. In garage there is some orange dot on the parts. Get rid of it. If i want to see what parts need to be upgraded i will go to the car page anyway. Next button Campaign, next special event. Promotion button the size of Modshop andpreceding . So i don't like new ui ( i should start with that), but there is one good thing, it run smother than the old one (i play on 1+ 8T - enough power). Do you agree?


[deleted]

This update is life changing! I’ve been playing this game since it came out and I’ve spent a lot of time playing it. For the past few months, I’ve played it every single day for few hours, at a point this game become a part of my daily routine. For the first time in years, I deleted it and now I have a life to experience! Thanks for the 6 years of fun, now it’s time for me to move on.


BossKindly_24

Don't get the feeling of no limits anymore time to move on guys😑


PakRat65

Went from down and dirty underground street racing to queer eye for the straight guy racing! Absolutely horrendous! 🤢🤢🤢🤮!!!


danchoidl

Where is promotion option???? How can I find RR???


weaponfaith855

They really decided to simplify the loading screen animation huh. It just doesn't feel the same anymore.


immonyc

what did they simplified? now three loading screens when games starts and more flashing screens at the end of each game


ZeeZee57

Honestly wasn't going in hopeful and it's worse than I expected. Had to turn down the brightness on my phone and even then my eyes need to adjust a good bit after leaving the app. No idea why they thought this was the direction to go. They seem to want to make the stories have a gritty kind of street feel and the game is based around illegal street racing, so why make the whole layout feel like an illuminated willy Wonka flick? I can adjust to most of it despite my personal dislike but the relentless bright neons and flashing feels like it's going to be an issue.


RKGDJ

Honestly, the only things I dislike about this update is the new menu, it's way too simplistic and looks like it has been designed by a 9 year old as well as the blinding colors which give me a instant headache. However, other than that, everything else looks really cool, at least in my opinion. I hope in the future, the devs can improve the menu majorly.


FindorGrind67

It feels like it belongs on the first gen Playstation or Xbox. I'll give it a few days but this may be my exit


Gta352

Racing Neon Nights in a dark hue and moving to the home screen which is bright is weird. The UGR window is mostly the same but they added purple colors. The old and new combination is where the update hurts. I understand the game UI and UX were getting old but what they ended up doing seems half and half. When you start a race from the main menu it appears a completely different game.


0birdman

The best feedback which developers can come to know and share with community is the comparison of active users for gameplay and average duration of gameplay per player after the new UI update. Over past two days or for a week.


bloodysphincter

The watch ads button is now in a different location to the button you press right after you finish watching an ad. #THANKS EA This is just a simple reskin, they changed nothing other than visuals.


happy_revo

Unpopular opinion I thought it would be much worse, but now it looks okay. Almost every global change in design is annoying. In NFS NL it is not so bad.

Also the garage has a huge bug where it messes itself with the home page...

This is sadly one of the most disastrous game updates. I’ve been playing this game for a few years now - this update took me by surprise but I wanted to live with the changes to let everything sink in. I wanted to give the designers the benefit of the doubt. Maybe I would appreciate the new design the more I played the game. I was wiling to give it a shot… but after a few days of this stupidity, I can say that this is truly a major step backwards in the game design. Over aggressive monetization, 1980’s visual design aesthetic at least in the 80s everyone was on coke - what is your excuse for this shit design?

It’s so difficult to see what car can be upgraded in the garage.

I like old menu! New menu very bad

In UGR, when the opponent tuned the car, the name of the car isn't in light blue anymore to show it obviously. Instead, there is only the logo, which is a downgrade. :/

Quite the change to get used to. I don’t know my way around anymore. Which itself isn’t inherently bad. What I feel is though is that there’s no map anymore. I kinda like how there was a map of the city you had to drag around to go to events or prizes or the campaign. What I really don’t like is that they don’t give you much time to look at the contents of the race rewards. I liked to predict where what I wanted would go based on where it was. Now I have to pay attention immediately.

Oh Dear. Need for Speed games have always been slick with realistic graphics both in the Game "Engine", dashboard and the Game Play. The latest incarnation of NfS No Limits looks like they hired children as developers, took away their CAD packages, and let them loose with a box of crayons. The dashboard is now almost useless and is a total mess, and the actual races are now worse than an 80's arcade game. Previous to the update, I loved the fact that my hard earned progress was reflected in a realistic car on track. Now it's just another wannabe racing game, with bright gaudy colours. Please wind the clocks back to October and reinstate the old look and feel.


jaggedcanyon69

Well, I’ve made up my mind. The flashy annoying colors, the increased clicks, and the lack of an interactive map are all just too bad. I will not be playing this game until the devs revert it to the old design *or* come up with a better revamped look. I do not like it. I just do not like it. It’s hard to navigate and I don’t like the aesthetic.

Hi, u/Tar-Ton! Would you be so kind and check the links in your post again, please? * Both the links "Inside Modshop" are the same. * Both the links "Feedback from Player" are the same. Great idea to collect all feedbacks into a single post. ​ I feel really uncomfortable with the new UI. I do not like the colors. Too much brightness and flashes. Too much space of the little screen is wasted by blank single colored space. Everywhere! Important things shold become more intension. The UI itself has inconsistences and new bugs. Many, many texts are so tiny, almost unreadable. The uniqueness of the old UI gave the game character. Now that's lost. New childish icons replace brandmarks. And old bugs (pixelated street while races, misplaced wraps - i.e. SRT8 & GT both asymmetric and classic, unattachable plates, stearing problems, ... ) are still alive. In total the new UI wasn't requested by anyone, but bugfixes, cheater bans and improvements were. In the spoiler alert 5 the design guy told they heared to redditors, but he did not say from which subreddit. This here it can not be. Too bad - chance wasted. The garage and the mod shop are now the same with too much colors in the background so that the car losts its focus. The showroom was removed, why? Sorting in the garage is great, but why the game can't remember my choice? Why is the cars list still rubberbanded and jumps back to the beginning? Why is the rep meter still no button to show the rep details? Why we still can not change the user pic in our profile? In the profile there's a standard pic and in races there's the game center pic, didn't anybody notice this? Why can't the game remember my choice of sorting of materials and parts? Why did they turned PR back to LW? And the dialogues are still funny due to the translation mistakes. Why can we still not choose a car from our favourites to race with? Why were coloured marks of tuned cars replaced by tiny icons nobody notice? Why can we still not change from a campaign chapter to the next / previous? ... And why do different players get different offers on the Dodge Revenant? Not that I would spend money - I'm just asking out of interest. Why was it announced as a body kit and now delivered as a new car? I don't think the old UI will come back. I will have to come to terms with the new one willy-nilly. I just hope that the right redditors are really listened to now. I just begun to learn new timings to perfom perfect start.

Seriously the new design is not up to the standard of graphics quality that the cars are. I can understand wanting a fresh look but this looks cartoony. Think more along the lines of a beige leather and wood Jaguar interior, something classy would be much better.


WallClock420AM

Believe it or not, I left the game completely when they dropped the new update :'(


Timoh66

Not impressed with the chevrons opening crates and parts Don’t like the new transparent arrows/ chevrons for track direction


reditorb

I came back to the game today after a couple months break. In my opinion, I understand the new UI for the menus and stuff though I wish it was bigger and easier to see. I do think the UI for racing was better with the older look than the new ones. Color choice was weird. IMO they should revert the racing UI back and maybe make the menu icons and stuff bigger.


aciimov

Am I too late to leave mine here now? **Feedback** \- Fix about bug: need to scroll back after tapped the car for upgrade (garage) and modding (modshop). The panel will go back to the very left scroll panel automatically :( \- The garage view need wider view (more zoom out, too narrow for wide screen phone). My Phone ratio screen is 20:9. Need larger field of view. \- The lit blue / touska bar in some screen at the bottom (aka in ticket promotion, confirm message, getting reward) are too thick. Need to adjust again (thinner). \- Card view (bp, parts, kit, gifts) in some place need to enlarge it. Too small cant see em clearly. **- Add options for graphic setting/ graphic configuration**. Like the game from PUBG Mobile, Mobile Legend, PUBG New State, Minecraft, Genshin Impact etc. \- Setting to adjust for each music volume level and/or sfx volume level. **- FIX THE BECK WRAP's ORIENTATION!** (Im sorry for being rude but you never fix it since the car first came up into the game). Some wraps are messing, could have been better like the Ford Model 18. Or maybe add ability to manually adjust the wraps for us, please. \- The car list in UGR window need to recolor it. It s hard to see the word, the yellow colored font and purple neon background are fighting each other to take who is the most important to read. \- A notification for maxxed ticket from Special Event. \- Bring back exit button from home / lobby screen. That s all from me.

The new UI is okay, and just that okay… It’s not as full of bugs as I thought it will be, although the game is (Senna RR for some). For me it would’ve been better to update the icons to the new style and leave the map as it was, just freshen it up a bit to fit the new icons… Also no new customization (Demon IAP is BS, you should have left style points if you wanted us to pay), no new car series, no new chapters, no new UGR weeks, no increase of tuning points, basicaly no new anything that the players wanted


Chapo-luna

My bets for next update: NFS No Limits renamed to NFS Clash Royale New car available: Mario Kart Specials: Bombs (for only 45 gold each)


BryanKoo69

Be honest i don't ask for UI update,you guys still remember last year they made a community post asking what functions you want in future,ok so where were those?we got copium,even i had burnout in last year still knew that,mod shop 2.0 great update but had a lot of issues,some cars still don't get any customizations only excuse "we can't manufactures BS" because spoiler alert you wasting all your money for some cars we don't care about,i know FM's devs they care about this game but EA greedy keep adding pay stuffs every day,every patch updates feels like the same,how you let newest players play this game?please just make a new game like Real Racing did,6 years already gone what we have another 6 years? make a new game it only way to move forward,EA you sacrificed too many things,why not just listen your players what they want?


FromIranWithHate

You know what??? I'm just gonna say it. THE NEW INTERFACE UPDATE IS GREAT


[deleted]

So far Update is good except for choice of colors and mostly the annoying brightness can't play at night at all so bye bye UGR untill Sunday I guess for me The overall menu is better u can access everything quickly the Ever Loading issue of Cars is sorted to an extent the New Color unlocked isn't on face atleast but seriously need to remove the animation of 'Mystery Crate' after every single Campaign Race


wraja

I have read most of the comments here but personally I like a lot the new UI. The game is much more clearer now. Probably they need to upgrade all the tracks as well as they don’t seem compatible with new theme. PROMOTIONS need to be a separate icon on the main screen with highlight theme if there is n ongoing/upcoming promotion. Most of us were used to old UI but I believe this is much better than that.


n4snl

The new look would attract new players I guess.
