Well 3 years later i can answer that for you its the same reason nfs 2016 crashes if you hold to many buttons on the controller, BECAUSE the game designer in charge of the settings did not do his job, nfs 2016 has support for the xbox controller infact its the only controller that will work...... for a while if you hold break, handbrake, throttle and nitro and doing fancy maneuvers with the stick YOU GET POOR CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET, if you do not release every key button asap, will CTD POOR GAME DESIGN AT ITS WORST, i made several post about this when i first got game, because same issue happens with using mouse and keyboard i have in detail written how to crash the game but no one from cares, there have been 2 patches problem still exist, but since nfs 2017 is coming, they do not care at all, i also play rivals i am left handed but since you can't change * controllers are setup for right hand, well okay i had an old logitech rumblepad 2 works well FOR AS LONG AS GAME LOADS THEN CTD, okay i have a sidewinder wheel from ms old yes but works, well i got 13 sec play time then CTD in rivals, i tried it in nfs 2016 i got 15 mins play as soon as i start on drifting and do a lot of break speed nitro you get bad con CTD CTD CTD thx for nothing GHOST i have all the nfs games and the games aint getting better sure nice graphics and then a car pops from no where and you crash at least in old rivals you can see the cars in the distance sure i still hit them but thats another matter. i can't wait to see how you F:U:B:A:R NFS 2017
