Rivals (basically a finished open world hot pursuit) so even worse.
You could be cruising on the map between races, not actually racing anyone and some arse would turn their sirens on to chase you. And this was integrated into the campaign mode by default and there was no way to pause the game. I turned off the online play so quickly.
Yeah they made a hot pursuit reboot in 2010 that was pretty good, just unfinished, so the open world aspects of the game didn't fully work, you could explore the map but it was empty, you had to select races from a menu. Rivals was basically that reboot but finished with all the features. The map was technically new in terms of the road layout, but there were so many reused assets.
