Impossible to get gold on all Prestige events!!!

No one at TrueAchievements has gotten Gold Plated on XBox One, only 16 tracked gamers have gotten Basic Bronze, and only 63 gamers have gotten Speed Master.  The TrueAchievements forums are full of people that want the Gold, Silver, and Bronze times and drift scores severely nerfed down to way more acceptable levels!  This is one Need For Speed that's trying way to hard to be Forza!  EA!!!  WHEN WILL YOU LISTEN TO THE GAMERS WHO MAKE YOU WHAT YOU ARE?!

*See attached picture directly from TrueAchievements showing how many tracked gamers have unlocked achievements from the Speedlists Update.

Another vote here, EA, this is just impossible!

Gold times are not realistic, after trying the first race for over 20 times, I only managed to get to 1:49, and that was simply perfect driving with a fully upgraded Aventador.

The speedlist trophy is also ridiculously hard and this is just a shame because I want to keep this game at 100%, and these DLC trophy requirements, it won't happen.

Please nerf!

EA seem to be deleting posts on this as well, classy stuff EA, you're DLC sucks admit it.

It is a worst DLC in my life when I played. Really because I don't have any fun only frustration with this game right now. After update are trouble with playing normally sry but this is true. Have to be perfect, a lot depends from luck, every corner must be do perfectly You haven't , any chance to mistake and all is against You. They called this pretige mode but this mode it is always in fps and right now we got this in arcade series game sry this is not even arcade but on strenght that they did simulator. A lot people asked a nerf, saw few twitch about them and we don't have any answer, any answer that they will patch this or not. And later they will think what their games will not sell. I will not support this company who not support us sry but right now this is still the hottest topic in this site, also when I talked with friend is still topic about need for speed. But those opinions are not good.

impossible . please ea repair the gold events

+1. It's imposible

FIX YOUR DLC GOLD, SILVER, AND BRONZE TIMES EA!!! I AM ALL ABOUT HARD TROPHIES, BUT YOU CAN NOT TAKE THE BEST TIMES FOR COURSES FROM YOUR SERVERS AND THEN MAKE THEM THE TIMES PLAYERS HAVE TO ACHIEVE. ESPECIALLY WHEN HALF OF THE TIMES WERE MADE USING EXPLOITS. I REALLY HOPE THAT THIS GETS FIXED OR THIS WILL BE THE LAST EA GAME I EVER BUY. I STOPPED BEFORE BECAUSE OF MICRO TRANSACTIONS, SO I CAN STOP AGAIN!!!

I believe they aren't going to do anything about it. They want people to spend hundreds of hours grinding away and restarting the entire event over and over until you get the perfect luck with the AI cars not smashing into you. That aside, they will latch onto 1 guy because he is able to get SOME golds but NOT ALL so they say that the entire thing is possible. (Good logic there - Not)

Its funny how theres 11 pages of people complaining and almost 100 xp on the first guys post but they block their ears and just hear what they wanna hear because its either too "hard" for them to change it or involves too much effort which is clearly something they did not put into this DLC... if they had we wouldn't have this problem.

All they did is make us replay the same races we've already played and then put ridiculous scores and times on them. Well done, great DLC guys... I wonder how long it took you to think that up?

Won't be buying anymore of your games EA including the next Battlefield because all you care about is money in your pocket, so what we have to do as a community is say well, we're not gonna give you our money if you keep making choices like this.

Left it a few days to wait for EA response, come back, and nothings been changed in game, and no response. Sorry EA but I'm with Bushranger, I am done with EA, I wont be buying anymore EA games again.

Another customer lost.

Unfortunetaly lost too me like customer. This is my last game from EA, because I feel that I on't have support. I have gotten hope that this will fix but it is not. What can i say more. Only this that You do games for us. We buy this game. We bought games when internet even voted (at least me) that You are the worst company. I still believed that this is not true. When I wrote first post here i believed that this will fix. From this DLC past 2 weeks topic grown and still is the same. I told earlier this is not problem that was mistake with dlc, important is fix this mistake and all be forgiven about this is issue. Even You gain more because You can fix reputation because this behavour was descripted on other forums or when someone complain on You we will stand in Your defence given good example with Need For Speed. What I can say more?How many times can repeat the same? Who from us think buy others games even when will be good, when this behaviour will be remember for long time?No one. This is sad but true.

P.S

I was fair with You until end. 

I managed to get the Gold Plate Xbox achievement shortly after you made that screenshot but I do agree that it is very tricky to get and needs to be altered.

I only got it through strained patience, competitive nature and stubborn nature.  Most the races were met with me shouting at the screen and in case we all missed it this is supposed to be a fun game.... I did not have fun being angry working towards this achievement.  

Worst thing I had to battle with the time delay on racing events.  You can cross the line .2 seconds faster then the gold target time but it would take .5 to 1 second to register you going over the line since its online only.  Its ironic when one of the loading screen "tweets" say, and I quote "Clock doesn't lie"...when actually it does...

EA/ Ghost

I don't know who got this stupid idea not support game who don't have even year but consider what I write. Do even meet with Your director studio because right now Your situation is not good. Propably bad or one of the worst of Your positions. Believe me. This situation is beyond me what I read today. 50% propably will not buy NFS.50% because You upset a lot people who buy game who don't have even year and You left support. Who do this in times when others studio started fight about one customers because this customers can talk another customers about good game, support. Other talk to another and etc. This is how build good reputation and even when screwed few times this will be forgiven but not overtimes like You do. My god. 50% players are angry, upset disappointed about situation who was, because they buy Your game who left support after 2 months on PC ( If i correct) did  lot bugs in last update, trophy hunters, achievements hunters are angry, and right now You upset players who played this game and counted for new update, fix bugs. What are You doing? Too less controversy? You got another controversy. Just do last update for Need for speed fix times, add garage, add cars what they want ( the same cars can be repeat in NFS 2017 and noone be angry), and all be happy and You start build good reputations. What are you doing? Who got stupid idea with this? Remember that Your action has our reaction. This is my last post. Believe if You don't listen players,trophyhunters, achievement hunters who want back Your good reputation, want do free advertisement do write about Your good behaviour and write to friends about good behaviour and recommended Your games. Right now You got only chance to do something good for Yourselfs. So consider and first time use this chance who can gain a lot customers. You got nothing to lose you only can gain more customers. This is hard to think first time clearly? Is this hard? This is my last post to You. You got chance use this or You will got another unused chance to build. Remember that people remember how You finish not start. So right now think and consider this. You do decision but remember this decision can have consequences good or bad.

Comes to something when the only single person on XBOX to get it agrees it should be changed

I like a challenge... I think we all do...

But I think this has been blown way out of proportion.  The only kind of people who will get that achievement are the hardcore racers who have plenty of experience....and even then it will be tough for them.  Put an average gamer who is a completionist will now have a mountain to climb if they choose to try.

When it was released it was hailed as one of those games you can easily 100% the in trophies or achievements, but now it seems someone took that as an insult and worked just as hard as those few who managed to get gold just to satisfy in their minds, "hmm ok, should be a little more challenging now....right, now to NFS 2017".

Yes I proved it is do-able.....but I would rally with the rest on this thread and say that this definitely needs to change before more lose respect to EA's decisions.

EA Ridiculous......

All their focus will be on the next NFS2017, Which will be another half baked game to milk the dead and buried franchise, please EA don't say for the new one that it's dedicated to the fans like you did this one, as you clearly dedicated nothing to the fans, we all got sideswiped, and one of the worst NFS you've made, and that says a lot to say you made Pro Street and The Run....are you purposely trying to make the worst racer? Because you're heading that way. Look at Forza Horizon, then look at your product, look at Driveclub, then look at your product....it's kinda embarrassing isn't it EA?

The least you guys can do is sort the medal mess out on this garbage.

Twitter is useless as the people on there wont answer anything negative about the game, they only reply to the odd casual fan that actually likes the game....12 year olds who think wraps...REP....Hashtags, and Brofists are cool...

Game too early stopped support because right now this game need last uptade to say goodbye fans and see in new NFS.

Needs:

1. Additional cars. In my opinon 3-5 will be enough


2. Need reduces requirements. Add 15 second to each event and reduce score drift 50%. Doing Han 7 mission, Gymkhana 475k after reduced will be a lot hard for average players but got chance do this

3. Add aditional vinyl, garage space

Last uptade solved all problems this game and everyone will be happy beside this was good ending this game and easily can say goodbye and see you in next NFS. Right now leaving support players feels like someone slaptface or put fingers when update is the most needed in this game. 

Also they got free advertisement because i will be first who will promote their game because will got strong argument. 

I would like to thank everyone for voicing your concerns about the difficulty of the new Prestige events.

While we've been monitoring all feedback related to these events, we are currently not changing the requirements themselves. We are however not closing the door on possibly changing the requirements in the future.

Note: this post has been marked as a solution purely for visibility purposes.

Wow!!!!! That is all I can say about this issue now that one of the developers has responded to us. Not changing the requirements at all that is a big kick in the face to all of their loyal fans who responded to this issue and the thousands of others that didn't. I have no hope for need for speed anymore after this. To start developing a new game without even fixing the current broken patch that was just released a couple weeks ago is absolutely ridiculous. I see now that there hope was to keep people playing this need for speed until the new one with fake difficulty, but that was a total fail on their part because it made many people I know just sell their copy and say screw this. Thanks for not caring about gamers is all I can say to EA!!! I will hold out until Tuesday(which is playstations update day), but if nothing is done by then I am done with this developer and will make sure to tell everyone I know about the terrible service of this company after this. Because adding 15,10, or even 5 seconds on each race is so hard to do. NOT!!!!!
