Burnout Paradise is set in an open-world environment. Players
have the opportunity to progress at their own pace and level; the game,
unlike others, is not actually set to a rigid gameplay framework.
According to Alex Ward, creative director of the game at developer
Criterion Games, this game is a "complete reinvention" of the
Burnout
series. He also said "To create truly next-generation gameplay, we
needed to create a truly next-generation game from the ground up."
Initially day and night cycles were not included in the game but a
software update entitled "Davis" added this element to the game. For the
first time in the series, records are now kept on a player's drivers
license, including statistics such as fastest time and biggest crash for
every street in the game.
