The Final Stage of The Run, and it is time to close it out. Thank you for joining me along as we said goodbye to this game! I will still upload a few more videos of The Run along with some announcements in the next few days before I put this game to rest.

I really need a sequel, I played this game when my aunt bought me a special edition (I still have the disc and everything), and man, one of the best memories when I took turns with my brother to finish it, a pity it ended up mostly ignored, I'm still waiting for "NFS The Next Run" or something like that, hopefully someday EA will retake this wonderful game concept, and finally give us something more "old school" style where the car tuning was just another part of the game and the story had a relevant role, not now that most games try to imitate Forza.
@@elcobra98 I was thinking of just more NFS The Run. Like instead of going through America you could have a race around the world with stages in different counties and countries and whatnot
@@kevingame3198 well technically. They re-coded the engine to work. As the engine they used was primarily a FPS engine. So they spent most of making the game, recoding the game engine to this specific kind of game
when you look at people who have experience playing this kind of game you realize that when you played it, especially if you were young, it's not that you were bad, it's just that sometimes the AI was actually that "strong" xd
Bro these rival races on Extreme+ are such incredible fun to watch. I never expected the AI Rivals to be this skilled, they blow any other modern NFS boss race in the series out of the water.... Sad to see NFS the Run go, but at least it died having been appreciated and no longer being as despised as it once was. RIP NFS The Run, you were pretty good.
I honestly think the upped difficulty just makes it so that they rubber band to you a lot harder (if you’re ahead of them). I say this because ISAD seemed to win basically all of these races by using a full nitrous tank at the final straight.
Gotta love how after all that badass driving, you stil get cutscened by Marcus, and then having to deal with old trains turned bullet trains lol. I love this game man, awesome run. I really hope we get to see a spin-off someday
I needs to to see that first race again... that was pretty freaking close! It's great to see a UA-camr that loves racing games also like NFS! 👍 I'm just proud to be your supporter/subscriber!
@@andrewrogers3067 Fair enough point, but there's more to this than meets the eye. Think about the kinds of cars Jack's racing by Stage 9. Huayras. Z06 Corvettes. Porsche 918s. Aventadors. And then, right before he hits New Jersey, he runs into some random dude in a mild-looking Boss 302? Think about the caliber of driver it takes to drag THAT thing all the way up past _all of the above._ Eddie's skills are obvious with context. Alternatively, that Stang is one hell of a sleeper. Just what did he do to that thing?
Hopefully the development team of blackbox can make another company to make even more great games, who knows they could probably get woth codemasters and slightly mad studios. And slighty mad studios are the same people who made motorstorm
They already did, it’s called “Ivory Tower”. And no, most of them have retired or even went elsewhere around EA & other studios after the closure of Black Box. I doubt it would happen. Even the new Skate still has thier team, but not as many like before.
Thank you so much for this playthrough, after beating this game for the first time I always had a dream of improving it to show its potential, and this is pretty much the realization of that. It also made me to go back into the game to remember some of the quirks I discovered years ago and to keep enjoying it. Thank you!!
Markus was seen driving his signature Tier 6 One-77 throughout the campaign, in Stage 2, 4 & Stage 7 in the original game but in the final race, it became a stock Tier 5 One-77. I think Blackbox either initially made a Tier 4->5->6 progression throughout the campaign, or planned for a Tier 5/6 campaign, but they never had the time to do it.
Because it is supposed to be, he was seen driving the modified one throughout the campaign. For some reasons only the final race it became a stock One-77. Probably something to do with the T5/T6 campaign being cut.
17:00 - 18:10 THAT EXCELLENT ENDING RACE! Especially 17:27 - 11:43. Thank you for appreciating! :) Sorry for my translation from Russian to English, since I'm from Russia. By the way , my name is George.
It was scripted, you can see Mila, Calvin, DeLeon was beaten in chapter 3,5 and 6 yet they race again in chapter 9 and 10. Its more like they doing it by using 'backdoor' system designed to kick Jack from race permanently and of course Markus is the one who ordered them to eliminate him from race.
If you pay attention to the "elimination race: get to top xx" notifications throughout the game, the only rival who actually got eliminated is Mila's friend, Nikki. So, how they got ahead of Jack again aside, there are no other problems.
That's sad how they clearly opened for a 2nd game but never did it and probably will never anyways. And with how is EA nowadays I'd rather not have it.
I mentioned on one of your other videos of tier 6 cars. But doing the whole game with Tier 1 cars only. With Tier 1 timers as well. I know it sounds stupid, but it will sure in fact make the game longer than it seems.
The Run came out during my senior year of high school, I didn't play it as much because Skyrim, MW3, and Driver: San Francisco were taking up most of my limited free time.
Easy: If you are either in first time on racing game or feeling normal is too hard Normal: Default setup(Very Average) Hard: If you are either pro on racing game or feeling that Normal is too easy Extream: If you wanna prove you are one of best drivers Extream Plus: *If you feels even Extream level was too easy*
Think I'm about to re-install this beautiful piece of NFS. Last time I've stopped about 60% into getting gold on every single event and not having tried the extreme for the campaign. Absolutely loved the solid, weighted feel of the physics with a nod towards the NFS 2000. The only thing that spoiled the playthrough on a modern system was some kind of a timescale/physics bug where the car would sometimes loose all the acceleration and engine power on the straights or hill climbs.
Because it is supposed to be, he was seen driving the modified one throughout the campaign. For some reasons only the final race it became a stock One-77. Probably something to do with the T5/T6 campaign being cut.
I remember this guy's driving skill when I'm using my laptop keyboard as an arrow to move left, right, reverse and brake. But need to be more careful or you may hit the wall if not at good timing. Ahh, miss nfs

Very cool koenigsegg
Could you please share us how did you make The Run to be a Tier 5/6 gameplay?
Nice move
I wish that “I got a call” job could’ve been a sequel to The Run(really really like this game a lot, thanks for playing this again IsuckAtdriving)
Would love a sequel that has you racing around the world. You could literally triple the content of the first game. EA is missing on a lot with this

NFS: The Crew Run?

17:20 It don't matter if you're driving a tier 6 car, Marcus Blackwell is still gonna activate the illegal DRS to get away from you.
That tiny wing on its back haha
Hey, That's Not Even Fair, Man!
laughs in hammer time
His car is tier 6 top
The graphics in this game still holds up pretty well to this day imo. Imagine if this game gets remastered
Honestly, doesn’t even need a remaster.
You could literally just rebrand it for the newer generation and they wouldn’t know it was from back in 2010’s
It’s used the same engine as battlefield 3
@@TsukezPlayz couldn’t agree more
@@kevingame3198 well technically. They re-coded the engine to work.
As the engine they used was primarily a FPS engine. So they spent most of making the game, recoding the game engine to this specific kind of game
@@TsukezPlayz he's running it on a 2020 PC, but still it does hold up.
6:16 still the hardest AI in the game imo, the real final boss on extreme difficulty
Also 17:20 okay marcus casually activates warp speed
The ai got an absolute grip lol
the desert time trial.
That and Calvin
when you look at people who have experience playing this kind of game you realize that when you played it, especially if you were young, it's not that you were bad, it's just that sometimes the AI was actually that "strong" xd
He cracked the game. This AI doesnt appear in the game
Bro these rival races on Extreme+ are such incredible fun to watch. I never expected the AI Rivals to be this skilled, they blow any other modern NFS boss race in the series out of the water....

These pursuits and races got me sweating
@@hewhobattles8869 Same, the rivals are damn good

@@federalbureauofindigestion4084 That’s because his car is much better in terms of top speed by comparison, but I understand where you’re coming from

Or The Run 2, this storie game has much ways to create another adventure
@@axlnawirose yup waiting for 10 years still no sequel
Yes man, that's my dream!NFS The Run Remastered for PS4.
yeah remake
Is Need For 2,3,4 Hot Pursuit 2 and Underground 2 the only sequels NFS made?
I like how Eddie is driving the NFSU Skyline. Nice reference! 😏
Yeah lol
I also noticed the Ken Miles Le Mans livery on some of them. Nice throwback
@@exiles299 first race. The skyline r32 has the livery of the underground 1 r34 that’s seen in the cover art and menus
Been waiting for this one, great series and great driving as always
18:09 So Jack was so concentrated that he didn't even know his feet were out of the bottom of his car. Guess he's really flooring the paddle.
was gonna say sum too
That was the e-brake...
@@Timberwolf69 so you're telling me that a supercar has an e brake and it's used by foot?
FRED FLINtSTONE
@@RAIHAN____ the 'e' stands for eco friendly.. all natural 😂
Can we just accept the fact that this guy is a damn good driver?
Yep😅
you : riding a red Agera R
me : wouldn't that make you....as Tobey Marshall ??
Video just started and you're already pulling the closest call so far, I love this game so much and it's sad to see it go
I have never clicked faster in my life. This series was so good!!!!!
Great re-run of the campaign, and great driving as always. Thanks for this!
12:35 I was starting to think that this mod nerfed Calvin Garrett, thank you for proving me wrong.
The last race was mostly straights where he drove a Veyron
Here Calvin can flex his muscles in the corners
Hopefully the development team of blackbox can make another company to make even more great games, who knows they could probably get woth codemasters and slightly mad studios. And slighty mad studios are the same people who made motorstorm
Me too man, me too.
Few guys moved to Ubisoft Ivory Tower, the makers of The Crew
They already did, it’s called “Ivory Tower”.
And no, most of them have retired or even went elsewhere around EA & other studios after the closure of Black Box. I doubt it would happen.
Even the new Skate still has thier team, but not as many like before.
>who knows they could probably get woth codemasters and slightly mad studios
talk about aging like a milk under the sun
And other funny thimg slighty mad studios make after ea fire them they make project cars
Well done, you finally Complete the game forever! Anyway, Enough is enough.
Thank you for playing this game again, it brings back childhood memories of my fav game :)
Finally! I thought you'd never upload this.
Why would you think so?
@@HyperVanilo He was doing, almost daily uploads, so I thought this'd come out pretty quick... But since It didn't, i got my hopes down, lol.
Man, you just gotta love the cop commentary in this game. It always made the races more intense
F for the suicidal cops in this stage tho
Cesar transformed his el camino into a Corvette and a Train is goin 160mph the Game is full of Wonders
Man how I love this cutscene 7:32
What can we say thank you for all your work to make series just like old times we had ❤🙏
17:42 That was massive impact
14:38 The new time of day made this section easier.
But not the final one when you drive through containers
The epic music in this game is unmatched with any other NFS titles

It also made me to go back into the game to remember some of the quirks I discovered years ago and to keep enjoying it. Thank you!!
>that first race
Dude that was amazing
17:46 kinda cool how you modded his original cover art wheels while In vanilla the wheels change

"That's some driving son , that's one hell of a car "
“That’s gonna cost me 2.7 mil”nfs movie references of the mustang top speed test
I love it how Calvin Garett car was the Audi R8 from Need For Speed Carbon and the last race was at night👍❤️
its been a long run buddy its good to see you always love you nfs the run🥲
Finally, they put Marcus's modified One-77 instead cuz that one has stock wheels
Because it is supposed to be, he was seen driving the modified one throughout the campaign. For some reasons only the final race it became a stock One-77. Probably something to do with the T5/T6 campaign being cut.
@@IsuckAtDriving I see. And how did you modified the whole Campaign, I always wondered how was using only Level 5-6 Cars

I'm always confused on how some of the characters managed to be top 10 even thought they were eliminated earlier in the game

They never got eliminated. They surely caught up when Jack was chased by the mob or when Marcus made him crash.

So, how they got ahead of Jack again aside, there are no other problems.
Yeah, the racing logic doesn't make sense. Just accept it ig.
@@epicm999 are you blind?
That Oncoming on the Highway still blows my mind today

That's sad how they clearly opened for a 2nd game but never did it and probably will never anyways.
And with how is EA nowadays I'd rather not have it.
17:43 let's hope he has insurance
That game was definitely a must-buy.
Marcus Blackwell vs Tobey Marshall
Jack Rouke become Tobey Marshall 😉
-How often does that train go by?
-So often you don't even notice.
Absolutely hated going against that One-77 even on *NORMAL* difficulty because it's so fast. Thankfully the Extreme Difficulty evens things out a bit.
Loved having the final race be at night in New York

Nothing new for MSWGR
is the best story need for speed the run nice video champion
Easy: If you are either in first time on racing game or feeling normal is too hard
Normal: Default setup(Very Average)
Hard: If you are either pro on racing game or feeling that Normal is too easy
Extream: If you wanna prove you are one of best drivers
Extream Plus: *If you feels even Extream level was too easy*
Extreme*
The one thing I dislike about this game is the inability to corner at high speeds without drifting, truly infuriating game mechanic
Aren't cars with Easy handling can do just that?
You know IsuckAtDriving is pulling out the big guns in this game when he's using shortcuts and nitrous.. so intense! Those opponents were no joke.
10:36
It seems after carbon he's decided to join the race win the money and get revenge Darius is definitely one of my favorites next to razor 😂❤️
I need to unlock this challenge series am still playing it doing hard mode then extreme once I can get tier 6 cars to do the run!
A Konneg drifting is the epitome of unreal racing.
master piece i ont even have to see it to believe it

Silly question but do you got a link for this mod? Looks fun.
maybe...
Modder who did this said that it was unstable for now and he will announce when mods will stable to play for longer duration.
Glad that One-77 didn revert to its original wheels
Because it is supposed to be, he was seen driving the modified one throughout the campaign. For some reasons only the final race it became a stock One-77. Probably something to do with the T5/T6 campaign being cut.
Cj from GTA San Andreas:"After 5 years in the East coast, it's time to go home "

Lesson : fight untill the last second
17:43 that was the first time i realized that marcus car was purple, i lived thinking it was black
