Before u say I suck, I have to tell you, that I have beaten the speedcross record by almost a 100,000 points and when I finished there was a new record, there's no way someone could've beaten that record that fast, people are cheating. When I began record was 840,000 and then when I played I have scored 900,000 + points and then when I finished there was someone with more points, there's no way he could've beaten that record that fast. I will try to beat a record again and I will record it and post a video!!!!!!! EA FIX YOUR GODDAMN SERVERS!!!!! PLS MAKE TEST THAT WILL PREVENT BOTS!! PLS!!!!!!

    That aside, if I think there seems to be a bit of misunderstanding here regarding how Autolog Rival system works. Here is the explanation:

    1) Once you top the friends leaderboard, the game will give you a new target in form of time/score (depending on event) of a random Payback player with existing personal best that is slightly better than yours. It is not a world record or anything, just a time/score randomly picked from a pool of times/scores slightly better than yours.

    2) When you beat your Autolog Rival, Autolog will assign you a new rival, whose existing result on that track is slightly better than your new personal best. Once again, it is not a world record.

    The mechanism is exactly the same as in 1). There are no bots instantly overtaking your new personal best, it simply is matched up against an even better already existing personal best of other Payback player and that will always happen unless you have #1 time/score in the entire world.

    HERE I BEAT A RECORD: (Yt video)

    https://youtu.be/_VP2qEV5Oww

    (You can see a previous record on the right side of the screen)

    But then less than a 5 sec later, there's a new record. Which will stay there for days, but mine doesn't. This is BS!!!

    @skoales Hey, thanks for taking the time to post and bring this to our attention, cheating is something which is taken very seriously. I've had to edit your post to remove mention of other users which is something that is not allowed on AHQ, if you suspect another use of cheating then I would ask that you take a look at this help article which sets out how you can report any user you suspect of cheating: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/

    Well if that's the case then alright, but multiplayer is still *,  anyone who played it will know what I'm talking about, nitro boost, no slowing down of the road, teleporting when crashing and * like that. BTW: I switched to crew 2 it's way more fun.

    EA is doing NOTHING to adress this plague... EVERY multiplayer games by EA are PLAGGED BY FILTY CHEATERS...  

    There's people who paid the 100$+ version of BFV and they can't play without the frustration of this CANCER who are CHEATERS and HACKERS....... 

    These PoS should be facing charges and get lifetime ban.
