I’m sick and tired of these stupid cops being able to bust you so easily!

Why are the cops so much faster than you no matter what car you drive!? Why do they deal so much damage when they ram you even if they are at the same speed as you!? How are we supposed to enjoy this...

@BLVD69 Most people who asked for heavy cop force are players of Black Box NFS.MW05 did have heavy police,but unlike Ghost,Black Box NFS didnt have health bar.That means player can extend the chase as long as he/she wants.This is the major difference and major objection to health bar.Open world racing games aren't suitable for health bar setting.Because there's no get to the safety way to end the chase.

Good point! I don’t remember when health bars were first introduced but it’s gotten out of hand in my eyes. Either they increase the health bar for us to take more damage, or they reduce the amount of damage the cops do so you don’t get busted every 5 minutes...

    @Deviation1997 Health bar was in HP2 for the racer.But that's in Be the Cop mode.So if we only count player health bar then maybe Prostreet for the wrecked state or HP2010 for a real health bar.

      Oh I see! Haven’t played Prostreet but I think I remember HP2010. A health bar change would be nice for this game.

      @GK3512 

      I agree with your assessment of the health bar.

      In my opinion I really am not a fan of this ever since it was first introduced back in the day.

      I always found it to be a huge disadvantage if I played the racer....but as a cop I could crush the A.I. cars in those older games that had the health bar feature. 

      Just my thoughts on this discussion.

      Have a great day. 😁

        @BLVD69 The health bar system only works in close course/circuit races.Hence why MW2012 ditched health bar and Rivals flopped the balance for both health bar and open world were in it.
