@Attila
Thanks for sharing your true and fair opinion about the game. We guys wait too much for their releases and they don't even consider what we want in the game.

@Daoluong
I think Attila made it clear about customization. We don't NEED FOR SPEED if our car is not beautiful. I don't want to run an UGLY CAR by a speed of 300 mph and cops hitting me like a hammer from everywhere.

Criterion Games! Please leave Need for Speed alone, you are spoiling it 😜.

I played Most Wanted
And after play Most Wanted 2012, there are too much things cannot acceptable
Can't drive favorite car to the end of game.
And the franking cops
And Why do they need to change color after repair?
And the stupid easy drive system.
On Most Wanted 2005, it has amazing customize system. But I could't spend enough money for best part.

@adxv
I totally agree with you!
Instead I'm gonna give it a 1/10 because they ruined the whole game for me! 😉

@daoluong
That's not customization by changing some of the parts! Did you played the original Most Wanted, Underground 2 or Undercover?
Those one had awesome customization options! But not this!!!!!!
They just ruined the whole series when they took out customization!
They just made another generic racing game so they could get money, they aren't focusing on story anymore which is bullshit!
They just don't have the right to call it Most Wanted, because it's nothing like the good old Most Wanted that I played back in the day!
They just ruined the dreams of us, hardcore original Most Wanted fans, with this piece of shit game!
THERE I SAID IT!

This game is a total waste of time.
- No Customization of cars except paint.
- Totally unreal cops (they can spawn from anywhere on the road making it totally unreal).
- Graphics are good but this is the only one good thing in whole game trust me.
Criterion Games totally spoiled the concept of Need For Speed by removing customizations and making it a FANTASY GAME. You won't love your cars anymore because they are just STOCK CARS.
3/10. (3 is only for good graphics).

Graphics Card: Raedon Saphir HD 7970 OC | 3GB | 384-bit

When I play the game, at some moments one picture is there and I can´t restart the game and so on...
Please help, what can I do, that the game will not (crash).

@Attila-13 Running the game in 1080p on medium settings with full-screen fps lock set on 30 fps. No lag or stuttering; runs like a console game now. CPU may be compensating for any GPU bottlenecks. Somehow the game automatically adjusts the refresh rate depending on the video settings while in full screen. I noticed this when the game was locked on 20 fps with settings maxed out. The auto fps lock in this game is godsend. I wish all games were like this.😀

@maadhavroking03
Yes, it will work!
But I highly suggest to upgrade to 64bit, because in 32bit you can't use all of your RAM!
Like you see, you can only use 3GB now! If you want to be able to use all of the 8GB you need 64bit!

I didn't say that...😜
But this is more demanding than Battlefield so that is the reason...
If games have the same requirements it doesn't mean that they'll bring equal performances...

@Attila-13 What??!? Battlefield 3 has the same system requirements and I can run that game on high settings @ 1080p and get 40+ fps. Please don't tell me I need a Radeon HD 7970 to run that game on high settings at that resolution.

You could try to lower you resolution 😜
And i suggest you to buy a GTX series graphics card or a Radeon HD xxxx series.
The GT series is not very good at gaming because they have DDR3 memory, so it is slower.

Well yes.... the site if gives you big scores, it doesn't mean that you'll be able to run it in ULTRA+1080p+60FPS...
If you get a good score that means that is playable on your machine...
games are playable at 25-30FPS...(console performance).
If you want anything bigger you need to play yourself with the settings...

The game is very graphically demanding and the cracked version of the game has a lag bug that will lag no matter what, even if your PC is the best!

But to answer your question, if you remain in 720p you'll be able to play it up to medium! 😀
But if you still want 1080p you need to got o lower graphics! 😞

Don't really remember, but if the game has AA, AF, AO then you need to turn them off, because for them you need a bit better GPU, but in rest it should be OK! 😀

Yes, the Intel HD wont be used, but that's a positive thing, because your CPU isn't solicited so much!
But even so don't let that bother you because the Intel graphics are worthless for gaming .... they were made for Office users or Media streaming so that they don't buy a separate GPU, because for office work or media stream the Intel HD is more than enough! 😀

Well...what to suggest...
If you have the money buy or a GTX 670 or better or from AMD a 7970 or better!
If you don't have the money then a good solution for decent gaming would be a GTX 560 or better, or from AMD a 6950 or better! 😀

You have a great system! Minus the GPU...
Don't get me wrong.... it's not a bad one, but with that setup it could've been a better one, like a GTX card...

With this card you can't run better then a max of medium in a resolution of 720p or lower!
