This is not the full car list!

More cars will be revealed in the upcoming days before release, I will try and update this list everytime a new car is announced. (Toyota is not in the game, That has been confirmed by Ghost games.)

 

Woop Woop, That's the sound of the police!

Ghost games promises for a more adrenaline-filled pursuits, While thats open for debate we do know a few things about the cops. Here we go!

 

There will be 5 levels of cops that will try and take you down.

 

1. Crown Victoria – The standard and most commonly seen cop car across Need For Speed. The classic Ford Crown Victoria can execute a variety of different manoeuvres and will likely be the first on the scene of any pursuit. Crown Victoria

 

2. Dodge Charger SRT8 – Whilst similar to the Crown Victoria, the Dodge Charger SRT8 has a higher top speed with much more power, proving it to be a worthy adversary.

SRT8

 

3. Corvette GS – The fastest cop car currently residing in Fortune Valley that provides the police department with something that can keep up with the most powerful of supercars.

C7

 

4. Rhino – What the Rhino lacks in speed it makes up for in brute strength and there’s nothing quite as frightening as an approaching Rhino, lining up a shunt. The weight that it carries will also make it considerably tougher to get away from during a pinned-in situation. Though all he wants, Is to take you down. Doesn't matter who's in his way to you, Cop or Racer.

Rhino

 

5. Helicopter – The eye in the sky provides an extra level of drama in the highest intensity cop chases. No matter how fast your supercar is, the cops will always have you under the spotlight when airborne. You’ll have to out-manoeuvre it whilst dodging the ground units if you aim to escape from these overhead, adrenaline-filled pursuits.

Heli

 

Thats not at all though! The cops have a few more tricks up theire sleeves..

 

One of those tricks are Road Blocks. These are a simple, but effective way of re-routing you and an even better way of slowing you down. When being chased by the cops, there’s nothing worse than being forced to make a turn you’d otherwise not be taking.

 

In addition to Road Blocks, the cops of Fortune Valley will also place Spike Strips. You want to avoid these at all costs, as not only will they immobilize your car, but they will also put an end to your pursuit as a result. If you end up driving over a Spike Strip, prepare for the cops to swarm around you, pinning you in and making you an easy target for a bust.

 

From Road Blocks to Spike Strips, that’s not everything. You don’t want to be targeted by a Killswitch, because if you do, you’ll need to shake it off by any means necessary. You’ll need to physically shunt the cops targeting you in order to break the lock.

 

However, should the Killswitch be successful in landing a hit – your engine will shut off temporarily, and it won’t be long until you’re surrounded by a swarm of cops, preparing to be arrested. You’ve screwed yourself this time, racer! We see a glimpse of the Killswitch in-action in the new trailer that debuted at Gamescom, which shows Mac speaking to Tyler over radio communications before the cops create a signal loss with their Killswitch – completely shutting off Tyler’s engine briefly, before he manages to luckily escape as a Rhino begins to approach him!

 

Okay , Did you lose the police? Good, Good. So.. Lets move to Car classes & Customisation shall we?

 

There will be 5 car classes for you to choose from.

 

  1. Race - High-speed cornering and straight-line speed for tarmac street racing.
  2. Off-road - Off-road durability and air time compliant for landing on loose surfaces.
  3. Drag - Only straight-line speed and capable of wheelies with extra powerful nitrous.
  4. Drift - Taking corners sideways at the expense of maintaining speed.
  5. Runner - Built for stealth, dodging cops, and threading through traffic without so much as a licence plate.

Customisation allows for any owned cars to be altered and personalised to a player's taste. Various visual aftermarket components, performance parts, paint schemes, vinyls, and stance can be equipped or manipulated to craft a unique vehicle, Each class will have unique and different car parts for you to choose from.

 

What will you be able to customize? (This will differ between Vehicles and Car Classes.)

  • Air Suspension - This means you will be able to drop your vehicle while stopped.
  • Brake Discs
  • Calipers
  • Diffuser
  • Exhaust
  • Fenders
  • Front Bumper
  • Front Canards
  • Headlights
  • Hood
  • Licence Plate Background
  • Licence Plate Frame
  • Licence Plate Text
  • Neons
  • Nitrous Colour
  • Rear Bumper
  • Rear Canards
  • Rims
  • Rim Primary Colour
  • Rim Secondary Colour
  • Rim Size
  • Roof
  • Roof Light Bar
  • Roof Scoops
  • Side Skirts
  • Splitter
  • Spoiler
  • Smoke color
  • Tail Lights
  • Trunk Lid
  • Tyres
  • Tyre Smoke Colour
  • Wheelie Bar
  • Window Tint
  • Wing Mirrors

Volkswagen

Stance will be just like the last game, Camber Front & Back (Less or more) , Height (Less or More) , Track Width - Front & Back (Less or More).

 

So , After your car looks sick and ready you might want to put some POWER in it!

 

Each vehicle has six categories that can be swapped and upgraded with better performing parts;

  • Engine Block
  • Cylinder Head
  • ECU
  • Turbo
  • Exhaust
  • Transmission

 You might spot a part with a Perk symbol on it. Perks can be equipped to performance parts to provide an additional bonus to an improved part in aspects such as top speed, acceleration, nitrous, air, and braking. Some parts can be equipped with more than one perk.

 

The brand name of a performance part will highlight a particular specialisation towards improving a vehicle. Installing multiple parts from the same brand will invoke a bonus based through brand synergy.

 

Tuning can be accessed whilst in free roam and allows for fine-tuning of a vehicle's performance or driving characteristics. The available selection of tuning options differs between car classes with some offering specific tuning sliders.

A:Really big according to this map released by Need For Speed - ''The smell of burnt rubber lingers through the city streets, a remnant of the activities that were carried out during the early hours of the morning. But the darkness of night now gives way to the light of day as the city of Silver Rock begins to spark into life as the sun breaks across the entire Fortune Valley region. Head out into Liberty Desert, traverse the mountain roads of Mount Providence or simply park up and admire the sunset from Silver Canyon. Fortune Valley has it all.''map

 

Q:There is this Youtuber/Friend/Whatever who i want to team up with , How do i do that?

A:From the last trailer we can see that there are now Crews in the game. There is no real solid info about this feature other then being in the game.

 

 

Things i want to point out

 

COPS WILL NOT BE IN FREE-ROAM. 

Yes, Im sorry to say this but cops will not be in free-roam. If you want to start a pursuit you will need to start a mission.

 

Garages across Fortune Valley allow the player to switch cars, customise owned vehicles, or construct derelicts. Owning multiple garages will increase the number of vehicles a player can own, and upon owning all five garages, will unlock an unlimited number of slots in the virtual warehouse to store cars.

 

If you haven't noticed yet , You will be able to change your Smoke & Nitrous color.. Actually its one of the Pre order bonuses aswell Red Tire smoke

 

Dealerships can be found across Fortune Valley with each having a rotating availability of stock and each specialising in a certain style of vehicle such as exotics, classic, muscle, rally, sports, and sports compact.

 

Gas Stations across Fortune Valley can be driven through to refill nitrous and repair any visual damage to a vehicle.

 

Once you finish a race you will have 3 free parts to choose from, If you didnt get the part you were looking for, you are able to drive up to a parts shop and buy that part you want.

This is a great list of features! When payback first revealed its intentions I was very underwhelmed. But seeing more cars, a lovely customisation list; plus performance tuning that looks like some real thought has to go into it, I'm happy.

 

A few dope surprises too. Mercury cougar? Huayra? Vulcan? Regera? NICE.

 

I wonder what year the Civic Type R is... important as we'll have to start with something affordable like that. No integra is a little shame but honestly my faith is restored.

 

Lowkey planning purchases for each event type already!

Looks like the Mazda RX-7 and (I will have to look again) the 70-71 Dodge Challenger is in this game also. Also, the AMG G63 is the official G series in the game.
