Need for Speed World rolls out new drag race mode
The developers behind the free-to-play Need for Speed World recently reveled the addition of drag races, allowing players to compete against other racers in the online world. Also mentioned were plans for integration with EA's Origin download service, which is set to roll out in the middle of August. Still coming off the celebration of their two-year anniversary, their open world driving game has stood the test time. With over 17 millions registered players, and more than an average of forty thousand users online at any given time, the developers of NFSW continue to spend a lot of time trying to keep the rich community happy and active. The drag races feature is a perfect example, as this was one of the most requested features for Need For Speed World. Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)What I really wish they would do is expand the world. It's already made up of 3 cities from other NFS games, why not add more? It would probably serve them well. The world isn't exactly that large for an MMO.
