Man, it seems that EA wants to simply ruin the NFS franchise. We first got the 30fps lock and according to EA’s official Q&A page, the game won’t support any driving wheels.

And we are going in circles. A couple of days ago, we informed you about a possible patch that could fix the ridiculous RAM requirement for Call of Duty: Ghosts. Activision claimed back then that it was looking into this issue, however it seems that a PC patch is not a priority for the company. When a fan asked yesterday about a patch for Call of Duty: Ghosts PC in order to fix the game’s fps and lag issues, Activision claimed that there won’t be such a patch anytime soon.
