Need for Speed: Undercover

Ne znam da li je bilo ranije ali evo jedne malo lose glasine

Need For Speed Series Possibly Cut By EA

Director of communications says publisher is "working through a process" with their products.
By Philip Kollar, 12/12/2008

Not more than a month after the release of Need For Speed: Undercover, the Electric Playground is reporting that Electronic Arts may be cutting the franchise entirely. The videogame web show claims that future titles in the series have been canceled. EA director of communications Colin Macrae provided Electric Playground with the following comment:

"We're working through a process on people, products, and facilities at EA and don't have any announcements today."

Undercover, the most recent entry in the long-running franchise, was received fairly well but didn't crack the top 20 in the NPD sales charts for the month of November. Earlier in the year, EA CEO John Riccitiello had spoken of plans to split the Need for Speed development team into two groups, allowing for a 24-month cycle for creating each game rather than the 12 months cycle that he said "torture[d] a very talented group of people."

If this report is true, I'm disappointed that we'll never get the chance to see what could have come from giving this series a much-needed boost in development time to try out new ideas. And unless the publisher already has new plans for the creators of Need For Speed, we could be seeing further layoffs from EA soon, as has been previously predicted. We'll keep checking for official confirmation and word from EA on what's happening to the Need for Speed franchise and why.

hmm, i ako nfs postaje polako sve dosadniji, ipak cu se obradovati sledece godine, novom nastavku, ali ce definitivno morati stvarno da se potrude, i da se vrate u Underground fazon, jel ovo vise ne pije vode. Od Most Wanteda koji je po meni vec bio stramputica u serijalu moglo se reci da se ovo i moglo ocekivati.

Oh dobro je da im je konačno došlo iz doopeta u glavu da NFS nije Sims, gde je dovoljno dodati novu kolekciju šeširića pa da se prodaje k`o alva

Mada i početkom godine su pričali kako će da prave pauzu i da će NFS da izlazi na dvogodišnjoj bazi, pa se desio Undercover

[La.Prestige]

Znaci sad ce izlaziti jednom u 2 godine?

[_NEBOYSHA_]

Mogli su malo više da se pootrude!

[La.Prestige]

Pa dobro,nije tako los kao PS,ali nije ni tako sjajan,kakvog smo ga ocekivali.

Iskren da budem meni je PS nekako bio interesantniji i dosta tezi od Undercovera.

[GrofSuboticki]

NFS Undercover je g***o u poređenju sa Most Wantedom,ili Undergroundom.Čak je i Carbon bolji.

Možda su smor EA suck postovi, ali mislim da bi trebali da počnu da prave dobre igre, a to uključuje i NFS. Umesto da brinu kako će da zarade na što lakši način na poznata imena i da zadovolje što više kriterijuma, trebalo bi da se fokusiraju na kvalitet

Evo jos jednog rumora dosta ohrabrujuceg

Rumour: Update regarding possible end NFS

With the last episode of Electric Playground a » rumour is going on, that EA is cutting the Need for Speed series. According to the onlinemagazine Joystiq this might not be entirely true. Instead of shutting down NFS, EA wants to close the EA Black Box Studios in Vancouver, which developed the latest NFS games, and move the development team to the larger studios in Burnaby.

Joystiq's source says, that the next NFS game in the series will be developed by Criterion, the developers of the Burnout series and most likely use their own engine. The three teams from EA Black Box currently developing NFS will consolidate into one drastically downsized team, leading into less NFS releases with more continuity.

There is no official confirmation from EA yet, but we might can expect more information this week.

E, sad koliko ohrabrujućeg, ja se pitam. Da li je tu kriv razvojni studio ili je tu izdavač vršio veliki pritisak, ili možda i jedno i drugo?

[crazy_LG]

Odeš na GPS mapu pritiskom na G, pritisneš 1, pojaviće ti se neki novi prozor, pa pritisneš 2 (ako se sećam) i tu dobiješ detaljan prikaz koliko si posto prešao i odnos Dominated i Win trka, vreme igranja, koliki ti je ukupni Cost to State i sl.

Trac je delom istina

We recently reported about a possible cancellation of the Need for Speed series and later on about closing NFS development studio Blackbox.
Part of that news is now true: EA issued a press statement about reducing it's work force by 10% (about 1000 employees) and the closure of several studios facilities, including the NFS series maker Blackbox' in downtown Vancouver. Blackbox will move to the nearby EA Canada's location in Burnaby. The press statement does not mention any games being canceled which means the production of NFS10 will most likely continue.

Evo posle zavrsene karijere za 18h aktivnog igranja da iznesem svoje utiske.Igra je slobodno mogu reci podbacila.Prvo prica je slaba, filmsi delovi nikakvi a setimo se samo MW i Carbona.Ovde nema ni cestitog uvoda ni cestitog zavrsnog filmskog materijala.Jednom recju bruka.
Drugo, onoliki grad fakticki za dzabe pravljen kad i onako vozajuci se po njemu ne nailazite na zastavice sa oznakama vrste trka kao u MW i Carbonu vec se sve svodi na tab taster ili ulaskom preko mape.Totalno bezveze. Trece, dueli sa protivnickim automobilima u okviru job zadataka se skoro odvijaju na isti nacin i sto je najgore po istim putanjama samo kad vidim da protivnik ulazi u onaj tesnac iza garaze ili sta je vec odakle moze da se skoci na drugu ulicu protrljam ruke jer cu tu posteno da ga oderem i unistim, a to se dogodilo od 16 protivnika bar 8 puta.Cetvrto, ljudi dal je realno da policijski dzip prestize 370km/h i blokira put.E sto je mnogo mnogo je. A kad vidim kakavo je unapredjenje vozila na raspolaganju izvedeno kao u juiced2 muka me uhvati.Dobro u prostreetu je ista stvar sa paketnim unapredjivanjima ali tu se radi o trkama na stazi i to je u redu ali ovo je cist promasaj. Voznja je sama po sebi dobra ali po mom licnom misljenju trke ili barem njen deo su se morale odigravati nocu jer svi znamo da su ulicne trke iza ponoci (kao i u vecini filmova) iz jednostavnog razloga a to je smanjeni intezitet saobracaja!Po mom misljenju tu je Carbon pogodio u srz.Pa cak je i PS po meni bolji, ako makar nista drugo realniji je i tezi od undergraunda koji je lagan ko carbon.
Steta a bas sam se nadao ovom nastavku ali sad mi je drago sto je ova nasa zemlja takva da nisi primoran da kupis original igru jer zasta davati 40 e kad ces ostati gotovo praznih saka.

Evo jos zanimljivosti

Info: EA restructuring, Black Box is moving

The publisher Electronic Arts is currently undergoing some restructuring and announced today redundancies of 10% (~1,000 people) of its work force (which represents a four percent increase from the six percent reduction EA announced in October).

Additionally at least nine studio and publishing locations are going to be closed or consolidated, among them EA Black Box, the developers of the Need for Speed series since Hot Pursuit 2. The development team will move to the nearby EA studio location in Burnaby, British Columbia.

So the rumours of shutting down the NFS series last week are partly true, but it doesn't seem like EA is cutting NFS. It's not sure however, who will continue the series: the Black Box team, maybe Criterion Games (the makers of Burnout) or a fusioned team...

The layoffs and restructuring plan will result in annual cost savings of approximately $120 million and restructuring charges of approximately $55-65 million over the next several quarters.
