Need For Speed Payback - LV399 Audi R8 V10 Plus Race Spec Performance & Gameplay

Описание: Fully Upgraded Level 399 1044HP Audi R8 V10 Plus gameplay for Need For Speed Payback. Showcasing it's overall performance in 3 events, 1 online speedlist race and 1 baitcrate event. Performance/Speed Cards and stats are shown at the start of the video. Played with keyboard and manual transmission.

I included an online race here, as you can see it's quite a mess. Sometimes it's to stay behind and wait for everyone to crash.

Audi R8 V10 Plus Race Spec Performance review:
To me, consistent handling and physics is important when it comes to arcade racing games. In almost all of my previous cars, they have weird handling issues, from the NSX's exit drifting, the Murcielago's tendency to not to drift, to the Regera's ability to do gymnastics. The Audi R8 V10 Plus's handling has the most consistent physics so far next to the 911 Carrera RS.

The handling is responsive and no weird issues. It can handle large drift angles, it's responsive to brake drift and it doesn't do weird things at corner exits. It pretty much will do whatever your input controls tells it to do. It has great overall cornering speed at both low and high speeds with a large enough drift angle yet limited enough to prevent you from drifting too much. It's speed recovery from drifts is a bit weak though and you need to be smooth at exits. Downforce wise it's quite planted, more than the Acura NSX. Despite the weak exits, it's probably the most reliable handling model right after the 911 Carrera RSR.

Unfortunately, despite it's reliable handling and cornering speed, it's acceleration is poor. It's NOS accel is pretty pathetic, as weak as the Acura NSX from my last video and it's engine accel is a bit weaker compared to the NSX too.

How does it compare with 911 RSR and Regera:
5 seconds slower in Mountain Run compared to the 911 RSR but somehow the R8 is lumped with quite a lot of cars in the 1:40 zone. Despite it's good and reliable handling, it simply doesn't have the acceleration to compete with the 911 RSR and Regera.
