so  
 on Black Friday, i bought officially NFS Payback and Heat  
 so here are my thoughts after few play hours on each of them :  
  

• Payback seems to have a better story. Something more written, more “realistic”  
 • Heat let you choose the main chara, and that’s cool (I’ve chosen the redhead with that bra because… why not changing). However I also like the 3 chara change on Payback  
 • Customization of the numberplate while offline is lacking on both  
 • Heat handles better accidents  
 • I love Heat’s glitch effects 😍  
 • Despite the fact that I don’t like rap/trap/and so on, BO of Heat seems better, more diversified. but we can’t change the playing song  
 • Sound is more balanced in Payback  
 • On low quality, Heat struggles to display everything (probably because it’s more detailed)  
 • Load times are equivalent  
 • Gamma on Heat is… too saturated 😐 hard to see on full sun  
 • Maps are correct. And Heat’s one is splitted in 2, so we can’t drive anywhere (yet)  
 • That day/night scheme of Heat is cool, but harder to handle than on Payback (because you need to think about turning into Night for reputation, etc). So no day/night legit cycle  
 • Better damages realism on Heat (colliding somewhere finally have a result)  
 • Heat have overall better graphics and effects  
 • Police is deadly blind on both 👨‍🦯  
 • Nitro management is more punitive on Heat  
  

But yeah, both are very cool, i recommend them definitely 🥰
