The freeway was shut down, but reopened around 3:45 p.m. The free-to-play PC action racer will be permanently shutting down its servers on July 14th 2015.

The officer did not return fire, according to police. “We were lucky no one was hit, and our goal now will be to get this person off our roads and the gun out of their hands.” “There is absolutely no reason to get that upset while driving to throw items at another car, or even worse, fire a gun at someone,” Michigan State Police Lt. Officials said nobody was injured, but the shot left a bullet hole in the car. When the cars got near Gratiot Avenue, the officer said he heard a “pop” and realized his car had been struck by gunfire.

Monday, June 19, on I-94 near Gratiot Avenue.Ī 22-year-old off-duty Detroit police officer was heading west on I-94 with a passenger when another driver began throwing bottles and objects at his car, according to authorities. The title's servers were shut down at 16:00 (UTC) on July 14th, 2015 following an official announcement on April 15th, 2015. I’m really confident that this is going to be a pretty positive win for them.DETROIT – An angry driver left a bullet hole in an off-duty officer’s car during a road-rage confrontation that led to a shooting on I-94 in Detroit. Need for Speed: World (formerly known as Need for Speed: World Online) is the 15th installment in the Need for Speed franchise, and was a free-to-play massively multiplayer online racing game that officially launched on July 27, 2010. They’ve worked on Battlefront, they’ve worked on Battlefields, and they have a really tight, close collaborative partnership with DICE. Speaking of the decision to switch Criterion over to working on Battlefield, and concerns surrounding recent moves like the cancellation of Anthem NEXT, EA chief studios officer Laura Miele said, “There’s no way we would have made a decision like this without including and discussing this with them first, and the impact that they could have on. EA announced in March that the next Need for Speed’s development has been put on hold so that Criterion could join the multi-studio effort to get Battlefield 6 shipped later in 2021. After the release of Need for Speed Heat, EA announced that they would be reshuffling the series’ development status, taking it away from Ghost Games and transferring most of that studios’ staff to effectively reform Criterion in February 2020, getting to work on a new generation of Need for Speed. The Need for Speed franchise is currently in limbo at EA. Servers for five older Need for Speed titles - Carbon, Undercover, Shift, Shift 2: Unleashed, and The Run - are closing in August.

The Run was seen as a low point for the series as it forced a story into the racing experience, NfS Shift and its sequel were track-racing spinoffs, while Carbon and Undercover are simply very old games with the series’ earliest takes on multiplayer. In fairness, the games that are being delisted and shut down are all a decade old, and come from a time where the quality of Need for Speed games was wildly inconsistent. There’s still a whole host of Need for Speed games that will continue to have online features, including 2012’s Need for Speed Most Wanted, Need for Speed Rivals, Need for Speed (2015), Need for Speed Payback, Need for Speed Heat and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered. But the number of players has come to a point where it’s no longer feasible to continue the work behind the scenes required to keep Need for Speed Carbon, Need for Speed Undercover, Need for Speed Shift, Need for Speed Shift 2: Unleashed and Need for Speed The Run up and running. The development teams and operational staff have put a lot of time and passion into the development, creation, release and upkeep of the game over the years, and we love to see you play. Decisions to retire games are never made easy, but we are now shifting gears to focus on the future of Need for Speed.
