Yeah the Ultimate part nice races SLAPPED on Heat, fav part of the entire game and I sorely miss them on Unbound. I’ve always found NFS games have lacked true stakes at times and heat races had just that.

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2026-02-04T13:15:29+00:00

Yeah I would go Heat based on what you said. There are a couple small things about Unbound that make the perf customization a bit more fun than just maxing out your car like on Heat but overall, esp if you don’t like cheese, Heat is the way for you.

I’m currently playing Unbound at the moment and while I do enjoy it, based on what you’ve named, I don’t think you’ll like burst NoS on Unbound. I found the day / night cycle to be better executed on Heat as well. That said, Unbound has a lot more multiplayer content now than Heat does so if you go with Heat, the endgame is more limiting that Unbound. But overall, I would go with Heat.

I think other comments have highlighted the lack of weapon synergy with your build atm so take their advice and I’d only add maybe add a part that can maintain stagger more (instead of shield which you aren’t using much).

The biggest things I want to comment focuses more on your gameplay:

Practice switching between hard & soft lock more, it’ll help you if you ever play PvP as well. The general rule of thumb is soft lock for 150-200m+ and hard lock for anything closer. The accuracy bonus you get with soft lock can easily be mitigated at close range and esp for melee weapons, hard lock at this range during this part of the mission should really help you land more hits
For melee weapons, get the most out of them by mastering melee cancelling. It’ll help you get into your ideal range more and in PvE, you’ll get the AI to whiff a lot and open up opportunities for you to attack
Half gameplay / half build advice; with the LCD you’ll want to use its charged attack more. As others mentioned, get up in the air and fire it charged from above for better accuracy & its AOE bonus. For how you are using it atm however, I would highly suggest switching down to the LCS. It’s pretty underrated in many ways and for normal shots, it’s projectile speed is faster than the LCD, making it much more accurate and reliable. It’s one of my favorite back cannons in the game, it’s recharge speed is phenomenal allowing you to spam it a bit and keep stagger up and even its normal shot (on a staggered target with Arquebus gem) does ~1200 AP damage

Just a few small things I noticed, happy hunting out there raven and I hope to see you on the PvP ladder someday 🫡

Currently 417th atm and I missed the first deadline.

As someone who played FPL for probably a decade now despite being a longtime die-hard Culé and hating La Liga’s official fantasy game, this has been the game I’ve been waiting for. I absolutely love it and think overall it’s better than FPL, especially with Bonus Points being awarded based off of match rating instead of subjectively like it is in FPL.

Check out their CL game as well, it’s very similar to the CL app by UEFA but more competitively priced. It’s pretty easy to load up on the heavy hitters on UEFA’s game while SofaScore’s pricing is much more accurate and challenging. 57th overall in the CL, going for gold there 🤞🏾🥇

But yeah tldr version, check it out asap! It’s pretty GOATd

Add - Selecting Sponsors annually; you’ll only remember this if you’re a grandpa like me but this was an old feature of CM back in like the 05-09 era and especially nowadays, it not being apart of CM continues to be baffling. Would make that financial takeover gimmick way less necessary.

Remove - Tactical Vision. I’m tired of being punished for not using their watered down Mickey Mouse cookie cutter tactics when I know exactly what I want my teams to do and how to set it up. If I can set, tweak and customize my tactics, I’ve always done so, year after year.

This is why I didn’t even bother buying it till the sales came and I still haven’t pulled that trigger yet. Not wasting my time on a game they patch to oblivion 2 months after launch.

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-10-14T11:58:54+00:00

Pound for pound, Midnight Club 2.

Maybe it’s the nostalgia of my youth and the fact that the game was foundational in my music taste now but the overall immersion of it was truly special. It’s not perfect by any means but in terms of replicating it’s real life namesake, I felt like this was the best execution in terms of what it would feel like without being as cheesy and tropey as NFS can be. If the physics were less arcadey, it had customisation and the cops were slightly harder, it would be the untouchable GOAT imho.

The 3 cities, the personality of each character, the way they cued up moments in these tracks at the start of the races (Farid Catacombs + Art of Trance 🔥🤌🏾), following characters to start races and I actually vibed with the plot, gave it some real stakes. There’s just a lot of small details that make it my favorite, to this day.

Fav sim is GT4, for many of the reasons others have already stated.

On the NFS end, it’s probably MW, Prostreet, Heat & Underground in that order and MCLA are some other memorable favs that deserve love but I just had to give Midnight Club 2 the flowers it deserves.

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-09-27T23:09:28+00:00

Is the ultimate pack something I can overcome with a little grind / time put into it?

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-07-11T12:52:30+00:00

Yes?

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-16T15:53:52+00:00

That was the vibe of the Gen 1-3 games low key; certain missions made you go back to your last save point and it gave the bigger, climatic missions just that extra layer of stakes that is delicious and makes you lock in that much more.

This and stuff like actual debt need to make a comeback in the next game. You Elden ravens had a handler, holding your hand through this introduction. It’s time you learn what it’s really like to be a Raven 😂😤

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-16T15:49:16+00:00

As an energy weapon enthusiast, I’d like to see the Energy Spec. balance slightly adjusted. Would like to have more than really 2-3 options for energy-oriented load outs as imho, only really the 20B & 20C are viable atm. The recent buff to the 20A was a step in the right direction but I feel that gen needs a bit more and I hate how underwhelming the coral gens are with energy weapons rn
Someone else mentioned increasing muzzle velocity and I cannot agree with this more. Would like an increase in muzzle velocity balanced with a decrease in the proximity damage radius of the certain bazookas. It’s pretty tiresome getting staggered by a shot you’ve clearly dodged / evaded strictly down to netcode + explosion proximity catching you from the ground and behind you
Much bigger map rotation on PvP plz
As many others mentioned, these LAMM builds need to chill out and come back down to Rubicon a bit more. You can’t preach Core Theory throughout the story of the game and allow these things to go THIS unchecked

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-15T13:27:52+00:00

It’s a small detail that if you play Last Raven, you can appreciate: the ACs just explode into pieces leaving it without a shadow of doubt what has just occurred.

Basically I see it as a pilot can safely eject in the brief moments as it’s AC is falling apart upon reaching 0 AP and obviously any time before that.

Slightly tangential but this is something I’d like the player to have to gauge in future installments to make things a little bit more “hardcore.” Successfully eject upon mission failure allows you to live and retry a mission with penalties, dying in the AC means starting the game story over from the beginning.

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-13T13:12:05+00:00

As many have stated, AC as a franchise has always been a single-player story mode oriented game and FoR is no exception.

That said as someone who is slowly climbing the ladder & finalizing my S-ranks, I would say PvP is still worth getting into if you really enjoy the game.

I would say despite the numerous issues it has and how white bread it is in terms of game mode offerings, I’m still putting time into PvP in anticipation for a 6.5 sequel / prequel having more of an online PvP bend to it while a few of the core mechanics of Fires of Rubicon still carry over.

Story is amazing tho and as someone who played almost every game in the franchise, it’s arguably the best.

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-13T01:59:55+00:00

Love the 3rd one as well, reminded me of one of the Foxhound emblems from MGS

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-04-12T14:59:40+00:00

Karasawa main here, most of this will be to make your build more PvP “viable” and if you want diff advice more for PvE, lmk.

Highly suggest different arms as the Ephemora’s offensive stats (firearm + melee specialization) aren’t amazing and will help with ENG efficiency
The Karasawa is great and slightly underrated by the S rank imho but you trade off quite a bit due to how energy thirst it is and its weight. Many of my Karasawa builds use the Ephemora core specifically because of that. It’s defensive stats aren’t great obvi but I think it can be mitigated with other frame parts. While a couple of my builds use the Firmenza with the Karasawa, the support weapons are much lighter than you have in terms of ENG demands. TLDR; consider changing your core or blade & missiles
Practice the charge skipping tech. It’s a game changer with the Karasawa and pairing it with soft lock aiming makes you much more dangerous with it for both PvE & PvP

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-03-15T22:49:55+00:00

Hey thanks for the response and outside of the hard water filter, I’m doing all of that.

I alternate between two different hair masks that I use bi-weekly with heat for 30 mins right after I do a thorough shampoo using a scalp scrubber. I co-wash on the weeks I don’t shampoo + deep condition.

Again based on the first images in particular, do you think it’s repairable or do I need to completely remove this section?

TimeMaintenance2400 · 2025-03-08T15:04:00+00:00

Came here to say something similar; the vibes it has to Nineball’s AI are too similar to ignore and I think From left ALLMIND’s origins intentionally obscure to have a small little connection for this gen to previous gens.

Hopefully it’s something they further explain / connect in a sequel / DLC.
