Game Fixes – Need for Speed The Run (Crashing, Freezing, Lag, Controllers, etc)

Vrrrrmmmmmmm! That’s the sound of me driving my fancey racecar in Electronic Arts’ Need for Speed: The Run! EA did a nice job with this latest Need for Speed installment — that’s for sure. You can play it on your computer — Windows XP (sorry! Thanks John 61), Windows Vista, or Windows 7 are supported, or you can play it on your gaming console — Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, or PlayStation 3 (PS3). It’s even available on the Nintendo 3DS. Regardless, get your steering wheels ready or your keyboard and mouse for PC users.

As of this time, it is not available for Steam just yet, but it IS available on Origin instead. It will likely be released on Steamworks too though so if you prefer using Steam, then you can wait.

You may run into some Need for Speed: The Run errors when playing this game, especially if you are playing the game on a PC instead of a console. Use this game fixes guide to help you troubleshoot and solve any bugs, glitches, or other problems you’re experiencing.

Need for Speed The Run Crashes (C2D) / Launch Failure / Freezing

Are you getting a black screen after launch? Is NFSTR crashing to the desktop (CTD)? Does it freeze, hault, or stall? Rough! Try the following solutions:
– Apply the latest patch to the game (for consoles and the PC version)
– Change your resolution to something more common
– In a multiple computer monitor configuration, disable all but the primary monitor
– Upgrade your video card drivers! These provide optimization, bug fixes, and increased frame rates. You can find video card drivers here.
– Run the game in Windows XP Compatibility Mode
– Run the game under admin or administrator mode

 

Need for Speed The Run Lagging / Stuttering

This includes chopping frames or skipping too. Try the following fixes.
– Lower the graphics setting (i.e. resolution)
– Upgrade your graphics card drivers (AMD ATI and NVIDIA provides performance increases for games all the time). You can find video card drivers here.
– Exit all programs and disable ones that may pose problems (though not ideal, some antiviruses and firewalls cause high lag)
– Turn off AntiAliasing (AA) and VSYNC for the game

 

NFSTR Game Controller Not Working

Have a Xbox 360 controller, Steering wheel attachment, or some other USB device for playing this game? Good — that’s how it should be played after all. If your USB device is not working, then try the following…
– Plug in the controller BEFORE you open the game
– Unplug other USB devices that you are not using, especially if you have ANOTHER game controller plugged in
– Update your game controller drivers using the official drivers
– NFS officially support all X input / Direct X compatible controllers
– Set your options for Need for Speed The Run to what you’re using — Keyboard, Wheel Controller, etc
– This may sound odd, but unplug your mouse and keyboard! The Razer Nostromo and others are causing issues with detection and even acceleration.
– If you use Logitech software, then close Lcore.exe in task manager! This some reason causes problems for some people
There are apparently some key mapping issues too. They don’t stick or save for some people. Note that a patch is being released soon and it may help with that.

 

Origin Stuck at “Ready to Install”

Origin brings a whole new host of errors to installing and playing the game. Try running and installing as Admin / Administrator…Otherwise:
1) Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Need for Speed The Run Limited Edition\
2) Ensure that you have the executable ‘Need for Speed the Run.exe”. If it is some reason labeled as “Need for Speed the Run.exe_DiP_STAGED” then rename it to “Need for Speed the Run.exe” and try playing the game

 

Need for Speed: The Run – Cannot Connect to Online Multiplayer / Voice Chat Not Working

Ensure that your router and software firewalls are allowing for the following ports to send and receive / accept or make connections on the following TCP ports so that Speedwall or Autolog is able to work correctly.
TCP: 80, 443, 9988, 10011, 10021, 10031, 10051, 10061
TCP: 10071 10321, 10331, 10341, 10351, 10361, 42127

 

Need for Speed: The Run cars Disappearing / Reappearing in Multiplayer

This happens if you have high latency. If you are doing something such as downloading files through torrenting, then exit it. It takes up a lot of bandwidth.

 

Autolog Photo Error – “Photo upload failed. Please try again”

If you are taking pictures and are trying to upload them, then make sure you are actually connected to Autolog first. There’s a limit of 25 photos per account too so make sure you are not over th limit. Also note that THEIR server may in fact be offline for maintenance or because of an error.

 

Need for Speed The Run Sound Messed Up / Not Working

This pertains to people who have no audio or music, or crackling sound. Other sound issues exist too — such as muted or low volume, stuttering, etc. It can effect your headphones, surround sound speakers, and headsets too. Try these solutions:
– Set your Windows speaker configuration from 7.1 or 5.1 to 2.1
– Change your audio playback to 16bit 48000hz
– Upgrade your sound card drivers
– In DirectX Diagnostic Tool (Start -> RUN -> DXDIAG), go to the “Sound” tab and under DirectX Features turn off hardware sound acceleration
– Lower your Sample Rate Conversion Quality from “best” to “good” (Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio Devices -> Volume -> Speaker Settings -> Advanced -> Performance)

Need for Speed: The Run Summary Pictures Wallpapers And Images

Adrenaline junkies and speed fiends will find themselves on the wrong side of the law when they race for their lives in Need for Speed: The Run. This game takes players on a heart-pounding cross-country race from San Francisco to New York. Players are lured into an underground world of illicit, high-stakes racing. The heat is on -- and it isn't just the fuzz who are after you. Entering the race is just the beginning as you blow across borders, weave through dense urban traffic, rocket down icy mountain passes and navigate narrow canyons at breakneck speeds.


Powered by DICE's state-of-the-art Frostbite 2 engine, Need for Speed: The Run takes the action racing genre to new heights with stunning visuals and car physics that hug the road even at top speeds all built around a gripping storyline. The cars are hot, the racing is intense and the story will have you at the edge of your seat ... all the way from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Empire State building.

Need for Speed – The Run: Storyline

Word has it than in Need for Speed – The Run, the story is just there to get things started. It is not really that deep, just gives the racing a background. So let’s take a closer look at the story. In the game, you get to play Jack. You are a man who has gotten in trouble with the mob and can only get a way by taking part in a cross-country race that can land you the $25 million prize money. The money will not only pay off the mob off your trail but may also give you a life of luxury and lots of hot cars.

Early Need for Speed titles have also attempted in making use of a storyline that should guide the player while playing the game. Carbon, Most Wanted and The Underground have also employed engaging storylines.

So we want to know just how true is it that the “The Run” story is thin. Steve Anthony, who is Need for Speed’s Senior Producer, said that the storyline merely provides a context. Need for Speed – The Run is not going to go heavy on the cinematic sequences and will not rely too much on the story. The game will keep bringing you back to the race itself.

I guess this just makes sense because usually racing games do not really go well with a heavy story. Just providing the context should be enough for the new Need for Speed title. At least you can have a stronger reason for winning without being distracted from the actual racing.
