Criterion Games hat heute das Update 7.1.0 für Need for Speed Unbound veröffentlicht. Das Update behebt einige Probleme und führt zu dem die Neuerung ein, dass ihr Playlists in der Open World nun auch endlich alleine spielen könnt.
Damit könnt ihr eure Herausforderungen auch endlich abschließen ohne damit auf andere Spieler angewiesen zu sein.
Zusätzlich kommen einige Playlists retour, die deaktiviert wurden.

Den kompletten Changelog findet ihr unterhalb:

QUALITY OF LIFE

Playlist Improvements

• SOLO PLAYLISTS IN FREE ROAM! Reduced the required players in a lobby to start a gamemode from 2 -> 1
  • If you want to play a playlist and other peeps on the server are busy or in another event you can now play it still yourself. This should also help with those challenges that you might have had trouble ticking off or if you just want to play your favorite track.
• Adding back removed playlists
  • A bit of context: This was actually a bunch of playlists that were hardly ever played as per our telemetry and we wanted to not overload the meetups. Also in terms of events, nothing was removed bar Colossus (which got removed as a race playlist due to it being a Darkhorse specific route for Vol7) HOWEVER! Heard you all loud and clear and all playlists are coming back in for you to enjoy especially now with being able to play an event without needing another real world player.

Drift Pro Improvements

• Fixed a bug in which Chaining bonuses were applied incorrectly and reduced the score awarded per chain
• Twin drift now depends on BOTH players drifting, instead of just the scoring player

Drag Improvements

• Don't allow players who are on the starting grid of a drag race to manually reset on track so that they do not end up respawned in unideal positions
• Teleport players back to the starting grid after tire warmup if they have slid forward in some vehicles in Drag

League Improvements

• Fixed an issue with no progress shown in Frontend Garage
• Fixed an issue with the  in-game HUD League-Progress showing 1st completed Racer instead of latest when next Rival is locked

• Added HKS and KUMHO decals to the wrap editor

KNOWN ISSUES

• PVP Doors not always taking you to the correct playlist
  • Ok so this is a tricky one! Firstly, we had difficulty reproducing this in our development environment. As a small team we didn't see this issue when we artificially scaled our environments for testing, but the magical combination of lots of players performing actions at certain times, has made this issue occur now when the feature is live. 
  • On top of that, we are doing different things with our matchmaking systems which haven't been done before and this has exposed issues that we need to work with external teams to fix. 
  • We think we understand what the issue is now and the team is working super hard on ways to fix it with other partners outside of the dev team. As soon as we do, you will hear about it. Thanks for sticking with us on this one. We know it's frustrating (we feel it too!)
