Nighttime racing pays off in cash only, all of which you can lose after a race if the police chase and catch you.

As such, you never lost cash, just rep.īut in Unbound, the climb to the top of a cash pile is going to go much more slowly. The basic gameplay loop of Need for Speed Unbound is much the same as 2019’s Need for Speed Heat, whose day-night cycle had players racing in sanctioned events in daylight, but increasing their “rep” - and drawing cop attention - with activities at night. Moreover, I feel like I’m actually racing, rather than trying to engineer a cinematic first-place finish in every event just to get to the next one.
