Impossible to get gold on all Prestige events!!!

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!

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!!!!!

Thank You for destroying my 6 years hard work. I will not forgot this. So like I supposed that people will start warning people from buying game from this company. The sad that this year should be Yours but right now I will buy another CoD instead first time Battlefield and do free advertisment, not buy Mirrors Edge. We just wanted do something for You fair. Give You free advertisment even when our emotions was above us and still gonna do something do and only waited for put hand from Your side doing patch with the times and drift scores

But thank You response. Also I would like admit that some people started since wednesday when officical announced came out.What You did the best for Yourself. My god instead use chance to repair own reputation, encourage this behaviour to buy Your games, You did everything wrong and turned people against this. People will right now will not see that games are good because we will still remember how customers was threated.

P.S

I know one thing if this will fix propably every wrong direction can fall back but have to be at least a bit good wish from Your side. Considering this really, because many players are angry, also community achievement hunters, trophyhunters who still grown. My god can't believe that this happened and tried do everything that this not happen.

I got to say i am disappointed with the response given.

This is not hate mail, I am not that immature.  This is seriously looking at it from as neutral as I can.

You make a gorgeous looking game that is visual candy but skip over some important problems that are causing issues for players.  At look at Grid Defence, they added new game types as suggestions from players and it was a relatively new game into the consoles.  EA shouldn't make decisions based on the size of the pay check at the end because thats not everything there is to a company.  I don't know who you hired as game testers but not everyone is MLG at driving...or even if they were standard testers but you changed it to be 15 seconds faster, I don't know.

As for the response given by someone in charge of the community, that message in a nutshell was "Ok we saw your messages....we won't change anything you suggested....but we may talk about it and how it is an issue we won't fix".  A kid making lemonade for the first time would give a better response then that.  Don't make a halfhearted message just to make it so you are responding to a message.  Words can only take you so far, actions speak a lot louder and you would at the very least gain a little more respect from the fans...don't do the same as Need for Speed Carbon, many many thousands and counting are still complaining about the unobtainable achievement that was never bothered to be fixed.

I have followed need for speed for ages and this game makes me angry for different reasons.  There has never been a game that I want to love it more and then kicks me away, because what makes me angry is me coming back thinking everything will be fine...until I tap a wall and then I am flying in space...or if my car auto drives into the garage door because the game isn't fixed properly.

I should hope you take time to read this considering I am one of the very few (if not the only) person on Xbox who has that Golden Plate achievement.  I could prance around on a high horse like a douche or even not bother with this issue...but I want to see people happy playing the game.  Happy playing a solid game, knowing that everyone else is having as much fun as I have been for many years.  I am sure some others are the same; they want to enjoy it, but get kicked back.

Got the same Dini

After reading the reply from EA that they wont do any fixes or patches in the future.

I just sat down and completed ''Hungry As a Manticore''  like it gave me the power and will to screw EA up for this one.

They want us to do this challenge and play as much as possible ingame on the servers to profit money from this.

Lets do this guys, we know this game is broken at the moment and totally random spawns but we can do it and then we are done with NFS and got our 100%

''Play Alone'' is broken since Patch. I just hope they dont did this on purpose

I will get my 100% cause im better than you EA. One.

EA thanks for getting back to us! but the problem still remains! i might not have a perfect profile like the other players on here but i got screwed long ago over need for speed carbon and i know how bad it feels for your hobby to be taking from you because such an easy game "why most of us bought it" made so hard at the end of the last update screwed everyone over.

there will be lots more people complaining about this even people who want to start the game will be complaining because they what it 100% finished but use are going too! use will forget this game and move on to need for speed 2017 its a bit sad to be honest not finishing this game off and fixing everything. well its the power of greed you've made it clear you don't care about the fans 

the day need for speed dies thanks for ruining the game 

Someone got idea with paid DLC. My god what a stupid idea
