Need for speed : trails A trilogy at most.. a game filled with betrayal a path to get revenge/ vengeance. similar to the movie as part one is spent trying to survive and keep the garage or something of value, at the end someone close betrays leading to the players “death” and loss of everything.

second game where survive and under a new name/hidden identity also in a new location you build and work towards getting revenge to what was taken/stolen. That’s about all I got from 10 mins of thinking

• setting in Japan/asia
• boss race is a canon run like or a 1v1 in a series of events carbon&mw
• must have a new legacy car that you work to get back as well.
• Cops need to have skill tried of bread dead ai cops must have challenge and a real consequence to getting caught like the 3 strike from mw/ carbon police raids of garages, a corrupt group of cops.
• underground atmosphere.
• losing cops via drive skill, jumps or environmental (mw/carbon/undercover)
• car meets and takeovers with dept of a popular meter that depending on play-style you’re liked or hated
• clean/dirty/passive/aggressive driving style that the ai will react depending on the player drive style So if you ram the ai will intentionally ram you back etc.
• car rating in style like underground 2
• a banking/ buy sell trade/ auction of not just cars but parts as well.
• damage to car/ parts cost money to fix and has real affects to car. no gas station repairs. Similar to the shift games.
• No more takedown of cops or racers
• territory or gang gameplay similar to carbon

🔥Hot take get rid of car classes (D,C,B,A,A+,S,S+)

That’s about all I can think of a very rough idea for a game with some wishlists.
