Best Lap Time



Circuit races give us the overall time.
I am sure me along with all the time attack fanatics would love best lap time at the race end screen along with the full race time.

This will help us do time trials and play forever and ever :D 
Please let me know what you guys think about it.

MUCH LOVE NEED FOR SPEED HEAT, CHEERS !!

  • @Agentcamels I would also love to see times saved and posted for races! I might like to see leader-boards posted for each class of vehicle. Maybe a different leader-board for each 100 vehicle points (The actual name of them eludes me right now)

    So if your car is 400+ your time will be grouped in the 400+ leader-board; 300-400 leader-board; 200-300 leader-board; etc.

    I'm personally one that enjoys slower cars over faster cars and it would also give a chance to try and rank yourself among multiple boards rather than just one.

    And while I'm not a personal fan of the drifting in this game, the same concept could go for the drift races where top scores for each class are listed on a leader-board.

    I absolutely LOVE doing the crew time trials because I want to see my name on the top of every race there is. I can run those same races for hours just trying to get half a second off my time for a single race.
  • @Agentcamels YES YES YES YES YES! We definitely need this. This would prolong the life of the game, many of us are in the end game and are not to sure what to do next. Grind for cash/cars/parts/engine swaps, race with crews and 100% the game but whats next, whats can I do that will help me stay playing this game? Leader boards would be something to help keep me. Seeing someones top run and wondering how they achieved that makes me want to run that race over and over again to meet or beat that time!
  • 100%.

    It's what's lacking in NFS games. Time trials + some way to compare crews (crew leaderboard - not sure what this would be ranked on though)

  • @Agentcamels I posted about this a few days ago and 100% agree.


    Anything in this game with a score should have some form of high score recorded on it. (Currently only time trials display a leaderboard but its for your crew and friends only)

    If speed and drift traps displayed the world records as I went by them I’d spend hours just going around the world trying to beat as many as possible.

    I also mentioned a leaderboard for crews and players for their overall reputation theyve attained.

    A sort of “most wanted” list displaying players with the highest reputations. (A leaderboard showing the most rep gained in a single night by a player would be pre cool as well)

    These additions would expand the games lifespan exponentially.

  • a simple way to start would be add best lap time on circuit races.

    easiest fix, then starting adding new stuff

  • Yes I do agree my self it will bring long life to the game as we have something to battle groups and crews with when it comes to trials.
