Developers have been making tweaks to big titles as of recently, following feedback from the games' avid players. It is certainly the case for EA's "Need for Speed Payback," as fans might see some changes made in terms of gameplay.

On the Reddit thread for "Need for Speed," a user named F8RGE addressed the changes that came with the game from the feedback given by fans in terms of their experience with the game's progression. F8RGE shared that they have been using the Community feedback as well as their own in-game data and brought in several changes, most of which are still in the process of going live.

F8RGE went on to write that their goal with the changes that were made was to make the game's progression, especially when it came to the ownership of the cars, a very enjoyable experience.

The changes made to "Need for Speed Payback" included a boost to the amount of REP as well as Bank awards in a wide variety of activities, including the Bait crates, participation in events, as well as Roaming Racer competitions. Players can also expect more REP and Bank for finishing outside of first place as well. F8RGE then advised that players should recycle their speed cards for tokens as they make a good alternative to the tune-up shops.

Fortunately, these tweaks made to the game are just the beginning, F8RGE called it "phase one," so players should expect more changes coming down the line. Some more changes include the way the tune-up shops work, especially regarding the quality or level of parts that they have.

Aside for "Need for Speed Payback" making changes to their gameplay, developers EA have also made a big change in "Star Wars Battlefront II" in terms of microtransactions due to the criticism from the players.
