Need for Speed Payback to add online free roam
Need for Speed Payback fans have had their calls for an online free roam mode (belatedly) answered: it will be added to the game in 2018. Currently, the only time you can roam around with friends is when you're waiting for a lobby to fill up, but in the new mode you'll be able to muck around in the streets of Fortune Valley with friends or randoms without having to jump into a race.
It's something that fans called for before the game released and its exclusion caused a bit of a stir, which has no doubt in part motivated developer Ghost Games and publisher EA to act (and it's not the first time fan pressure has caused the game to change).
