    Need for Speed Friendly Reminders, Our Discord Server, r/NFSrides and more!


    Friendly Reminders, Our Discord Server, r/NFSrides and more!

    Posted: 05 Nov 2019 04:13 AM PST

    Greetings everyone!

     

    As we prepare for the massive wave of activity with NFS Heat's launch, we should go over some tips, rules, and reminders to make life much easier for all of us.

    With new members joining the subreddit and discord, we want to remind you to have a look at our rules and know that there are other platforms that we are on that may better suit your interests.

     

     

    Spoilers

     

    With the new game comes new walkthroughs, storylines, etc. Please try to use the Spoiler filter feature when making posts about it (at least for the first month or until Christmas). Obviously this will be very hard to enforce and that those hoping not to see spoilers shouldn't visit the subreddit, we should and can work together to make this place open for everyone without having the game/story ruined for them.

    To add spoiler tags to any thread is fairly simple. Any title that includes the word "Spoiler", "SPOILERS", etc will automatically filter out. Furthermore, if you forgot to add it, there is a flair you can select (or we can add one retroactively as well). If we feel that the title is a spoiler in itself, we will remove the post and contact you so you can reupload with a more appropriate title.

    If you are on Discord, it's a little more complicated. If you are on desktop, you are able to select the "Spoiler" tab on the bottom right of the preview. This blackens the image and allows other users to open if they choose to. If you're typing a comment, you can either select the part you wish to cover or use the double markdown in between the section you with to cover. Ex. ||insert spoiler here||

     

     

    Downvotes:

     

    Recently we have noticed an increase in the number of unwarranted downvotes being made on the subreddit. We wanted to take this time to remind you that these are NOT meant to be used as a "disagree" button here on r/needforspeed. Rather, it's only to be used to filter out content that doesn't contribute to the discussion (any spam, toxic negativity, etc.), not opinions which you disagree with.

     

     

    In-Game Screenshots

     

    We have a seperate subreddit for in-game screenshots called r/NFSrides. There are no limitations on what or how often you can post so if you have a lot to share, that's the best place for it. You are probably wondering if screenshots are banned in this subreddit; the answer is no. However, there are some limitations.

    On r/needforspeed, you're limited to one screenshot per user every 20 hours. NFS Heat Studio (the mobile app) screenshots are not allowed here. Pictures of a TV screen or monitor are not allowed either. If you have multiple images or follow ups to a WIP design, please put those in the comments of the original thread. Please no vague titles either. We have had issues of people being misled, using single word titles, etc. so it's recommended you briefly explain the picture you are sharing.

    Again, none of these restrictions are present in r/NFSrides so you can go nuts over there - you can also visit the #snapshots channel on our Discord. We know these rules may sound arbitrary but we are just trying to avoid the spam and clutter on the main subreddit.

     

     

    Discord Server

     

    We have a Discord server for more real-time discussion and updates - here is the link. We have 3 Ghost Developers (Ben, Kevin, and Max) in that server who are active daily. We also have a plethora of channels for various topics; whether it be looking for players, in-game snapshots, other games, music, reddit, etc. The place is very active so feel free to drop by.

     

     

    New Moderators

     

    A few have been asking us about new mods in anticipation of the launch of Heat. We heard you, we agree. So we recently had applications for those interested. On both the subreddit and the discord server we have been slowly adding new mods. We have added 2 more on the subreddit in the last month with more being added intermittently in the near future as well. On Discord, we have added 3 new mods recently, with a few more planned in the coming weeks as well. If you weren't chosen in this round, you could be chosen later, so don't be upset if this is the case.

     

     

    Ghost Employees

     

    Most of you already know Ben/F8RGE but a few weeks ago we were introduced to Kev/T0TALfps on Discord and later Reddit. We also have another Ghosty Boi joining us named Max/Joker. Be kind to them, they are here to help us out and engage with us, just because they are affiliated with a large company doesn't mean they aren't human. I should have to say this but unfortunately a few folks like to be uncivil.

     

     

    Full details on the Rules below

     

    1. Do not link to/discuss key-reselling sites or where to get pirated material.

    Should be very straight forward. Mods and Soapbox Race World are fine but everything else is not ok. We understand the situation with abandonware but it's not worth taking that risk - most of you already know where to go anyway.

     

    2. Follow Reddit's rules of promotion.

    This isn't solely a rule for our subreddit, it's also against Reddit's ToS. No referral, affiliate,, discord, subreddit links and no links to your personal (or even a coworker or friend) YouTube video. Reddit Video is fine. If you wish to make a survey, run it by us first - more often than not we give you the go-ahead. If you see blatant advertising, report it to the mods.

     

    3. No reposts or unnecessary resubmissions

    While we understand it's not possible for you to know every previous post when uploading; we kindly ask to do a quick browse and quick search when making a post - especially if it's a recent breaking news piece. A lot of your questions may be answered before, and if you're wondering which game to buy, there are a plethora of those posts to search for. Please refrain from taking a piece or entirety of an existing post just to talk about something else within that post. It all belongs in that same thread as it's all related.

     

    4. Submit the original source of items.

    Don't copy and paste entire articles. You are free to share the articles but we would prefer that users visit said article rather than read copypasta. It's only fair that the content creator gets the appropriate traffic for their piece.

     

    5. Be respectful

    Name calling, witchhunting, harassment and repeated rude behaviour will result in a ban. This includes repeated toxic, contrarian, argumentative behaviour toward members of the server, the server and it's moderators and other related parties (Ghost Games, YouTubers, etc.). Disagreeing is fine but when you are constantly arguing with users, getting downvoted and being reported, your character comes into question. Please try to remain civil.

     

    6. No Low effort/vaguely titled submissions and/or memes

    When making a submission, make sure your title and post content are related and specific as possible. Collection Posts, Reposts, Titles with less than 5 words, Spam, Milestones, Heat Studio App, Pictures of a Screen etc. will be removed. We all have the games, we all have a collection. We have all played the game. We understand this and it's great that you have reached a goal but we can't all sit here and share that same goal every week. Additionally, any posts showcasing a car/design on NFS Heat Studio Mobile App will be removed. It can get repetitive with its preset camera angles and lack of anti-aliasing. You are free to share these in r/NFSrides. If you want to report a bug you found in the Heat App or you are showing us the latest car drop, that is completely fine.

     

    7. No Wishlists

    No wishlists, vague posts of a picture of a car with "Please Add This" or posts linking a music video saying "this should be in the game". We all have our favourite cars / songs / locales / kits etc. that we want to see in the game, however, we can't have a bunch of singular posts of each random thing that comes to mind. If you have a concept for DLC or a game that contains a carlist among other things, that is allowed. We just can't have a list of 8 cars you'd like to see in the game. We usually make exceptions if you are discussing parts/features/cars that were in previous games but missing here, or cars that should have a different part.

    Someone's excited about their new wrap. (Not done, want to add to the sides but don't know what to add.)

    Posted: 04 Jan 2020 08:30 PM PST

    They really need to add more forged versions of stock engines.

    Posted: 04 Jan 2020 08:28 PM PST

    I dont want to put a v8 In my s15 for example. It just doesn't seem right. It's not like adding more forged engines would be a lot of work. Just the same one with better Max HP. Did we get any news on that yet?

    The little engine that could.

    Posted: 05 Jan 2020 12:08 AM PST

    Bikes would be neat ngl

    Posted: 04 Jan 2020 11:31 PM PST

    This game would rise to the top of my favorite street racing game list if we got to ride on at least one bike. One of the characters in the story can ride one which is odd considering that we can't. Idk even if it isn't added I'll still love this game but bikes would be one hell of an adrenaline rush at night.
