At its core, there's not much more to say since last time: it's an ambitious and potentially fantastic MMO version of the Need for Speed series. If you like those games, there is a good chance you'll like this. However, for those who missed last time, EA Black Box has taken much of what made up Need for Speed Carbon and Need for Speed: Most Wanted, tossed together some new areas to unite the worlds, added a stronger focus on multiplayer to MMO proportions, mixed in power-ups and new games modes, gave it a whirl, and are now almost ready to release it to the public."

"EA's free-to-play titles are shutting down in 90 days."
I always meant to check out Battlefield Heroes, but I always ended up turning back to Team Fortress 2. I guess I'm not the only one.
Yeh as far ad f2p goes the only ones I ever find myself going back to are Team Fortress 2 and Robocraft. Grow tired too quickly of everything else.
Just simply means EA's cash flow isn't flowing as much as they wanted. This works for sequels but can ruin certain games permanently!
I have a friend who recently picked up a PS3 (for the first time) with a bunch of games, one of them being Lord of the Rings Conquest (EA title). She was disappointed to discover that MP in Conquest doesn't work at all. Turns out the servers shut down a long time ago and as a result, MP is completely crippled on consoles (except on PC, via Tunngle).
I'd say the same. I went as far as to get ready/sign up but never got around to actually playing it.
It actually wasn't bad for a free to play game. Probably one of the best f2p racing games I've ever played.
From what I heard there was a lot of cheating going on. Maybe there shutting it down due to this?
Such a good feeling to know a game I'm still playing 3 and a half years later is still making enough money to keep going for many years yet :)
I dont wish that they were gone but in against many of their practices. Like what they did with BF4 for example or what they did with Hardline.
Just because EA gave me Plant Vs Zombies for free I still am able to disagree with them.
