    For me as a gamer for decades it's simply the best computer game of all time. Did I tell that already before? Sorry. Try to race through the water in the river of Los Angeles and then do that triple jump. Get the curves neatly in the night of London, not open world, but you can choose between THREE shortcuts at the same place.

    There are even some puzzles inside. Not ALL shortcuts are marked in the map!

    Thanks for pointing that out, Connector. You are right as well. I hope Hodapp and Sanuku will believe it sooner or later.

    Uhm… Just a moment… "easy"? Well, there were duels in the higher leagues of the career mode where I needed… well, ten attempts? Twenty? (Maybe even more.)

    When you want a real challenge in Asphalt 7 find a buddy who is on par with your skillness. Here we are experiencing the greatest challenge ever in local multiplayer. When you want to lure weaker persons let them intentionally win some early races. Be honest and fair and take a weaker car.

    I had never the feeling that the game told me something like this. It's my second home. Forget that sponsors screen and write a review about the actual gameplay please. How you came through the subway station in New York.

    I LOVE all those moving trains and subways in Asphalt 7!

    Okay. Some words on topic. :eek: There is ONE NFS game which I loved. That one with the Citroën DS.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citroen_DS

    I would LOVE to have some 3D racers with famous classic cars. Kudos to the makers of Need for Speed™ for that fantastic car in a video racing game!!! :)

    PITA. Annoying maybe. But I had worse experiences with other iOS games believe me please. I am pretty sure you can switch that off. I tried to tell you how (pls see above).

    Too fainthearted. Uhm… Please tell me how to switch off the nasty ad bars in your yt videos.

    BTW that sponsor screen in A7 (hated by Hodapp) has almost nothing to do with IAPs. It's a RPG feature. You can ignore it.

    Yes. It's so easy. Tap away that screen in career mode. In multiplayer mode (which is 95% of the gameplay in Asphalt 7) you can switch to "No Sponsors" and you'll never see that screen again.

    And I tapped away even more things that I don't need in OTHER games. And so did you.

    Get over it. It isn't as bad as it sounds from you. Finish the career mode, ignore that "ultra-tacky screen" (which is present as well in your five-stars-rated Need for Speed™ Most Wanted) and then try multiplayer.

    Please tell us how you could overtake the starting aircraft in Nassau.

    Well said, Connector. Thank you!

    You ignored Asphalt 7. Afair I didn't read ONE word by you about A7 gameplay.

    I will believe you.

    There is ignorance.

    Talks about NfS™ Most Wanted:

    Needless to say that the touch controls in Asphalt 7 are flawless (tried it for some time although my preferred method is tilt controls). You can have your arrows (left/right side of the screen; option D). Or a virtual steering wheel. You can even use your iPhone as a controller for your iPad and watch it via HDMI or AirPlay on your LCD TV or beamer. The same advanced features as Real Racing.

    I'd like to have that YT video upload feature of RR in Asphalt (although it never worked for me in RR and I am pretty sure that there is no chance to record/view multiplayer races in the original view).

    Sorry for that hurricane of words.

    Did I tell it already? A6, A7: Best voice acting of all games! Female narrator.

    "Hope you like to get high", the lady says on introducing the hilly, snowy and sun flooded Chamonix track in Asphalt 6. :cool:

    Wow, you should get a job at Gameloft as the PR director!!! Never seen two posts like this with so much information.

    Bottom line, Asphalt 7 is a great game, and it has and looks like it will always be 99 cents. For that price, the game is a steal. The most bang for a buck that you will ever get for a non sale app. Hands down.

    I don't think there's any racing more on rails than asphalt 7. In that game you couldn't get into an accident even if you try hard. Physics are nonexistent. It's the kind of game my 5 yo loves to play cause as long as he keeps his finger on the gas, he will make it to the finish line. Steering is even optional.

    Alright back to the real game here. I've managed to willy my car several times. At one point I hit my boost going up hill my car went airborne and I landed on a cop car. I've also taken a cop n myself out simultaneously. Personally nothing else in the AppStore can compare to the "wow" factor of this game, and when racing is this fun, I don't mind doing the same races over to earn cash.

    Thanks again firemonkeys!

    Solidfart -

    Almost right except that you don't have to keep your finger on the gas ;-)

    You don't in NFSMW either, to be fair.
     
  7. Well, don't know how Habakuk will respond to this one, but there are a whole slew of Asphalt 7 Defense Squad Members, and trust me they will make Habakuk look tame by comparison, haha.

    Never considered myself an official member of the Asphalt 7 defense squad, since I got all of the NFS games and real racing games, actually almost every single racing game on ios, but A7 is a fun arcade racing game even if it is a tech demo and all... :eek:

    But I think this thread would be better suited not as a war over which game is better but how great NFS Most Wanted really is.

    Hah, that is tight! I managed to get bronze after a few tries, but to get gold I had to use 2 mods AND retry many times. Got gold by just 0.02s...considering its a fixed ride I think this event is not easy.

    Hi guys, just a quick question: can you select your own music playlist while gaming and how? Maybe i'm missing something but i can only skip tracks.

    I realy hope they bring local wi-fi mp in future update (probably wont happen)

    Other than that it's realy nice arcade racer

    I've only managed to get a bronze on that one after several attempts. The challenge I'm struggling with is Hallenbeck Rd - Hot Ride challenge with the Pagani. I just can't seem to get past this one. Loving the game though, so I'll keep trying!

    you can put your own music in whatever player music you use the only problem for me is that in this way your own music sound louder that card engine and suchs or maybe an update from firemonkeys so we could add our own music without lowering the sounds of the other things in the game

    It's just a early benchmark but yeah, it was pretty much spot on for iPad3 gains over iPad2 from what i could read and find on the net

    no problem.

    Actually i have manage to get to the place where the songs of the game are saved and manage to extract a few one i liked, i guess if you rename a song with the same name as one there it would play the new one instead since the files are mp3

    So if anyone wants to give this a shot the only thing needed is iexplorer, diskaid or any program like that, i may even try this later since i want those songs from "drive" that sanuku post on the page 11 or 12, all you have to do is go the folder called "NFSMostWanted_Universal.app" then "Published" and open the "Music" folder also there a few folder called "published.ipad3", iphone 5 etc so if anyone have any experience with this it may put higher graphics on olders devices like the iphone 4 like someone did with dead space

    And there is also a line in one of .PLIST files that says "Gamescom build=false" So it makes me think this game was finished alot before we think it was

    That thing with higher gfx also crossed my mind but im not that expirienced

    Read my Original Post again. I never said that the three other Songs are in the Game. Someone just thought they were it too while they aren`t. The first two Songs are 100% in the Game. Have a nice Day.
