EA, how long are you going to ignore all of these pepoles' complaints ?
Are you just going to wait, until everybody has given up ? Really EA ? Is THAT customer support ?
I have never been a fan of your games, never bought any of your games because of your bad reputation, but I gave NFS a try.
And THAT was a BIG mistake. I lost 3 years of a clean 100% psn-profile, and I'm not the only one. There are others with 5, 6 and more years lost.
What is wrong with you people ? Did you do this on purpose ? I really like hard challenges, I'm also wiling to repeat missions/races 100 times in other videogames, WHEN the objectives/times ARE REALISTIC !!!
You MUST HAVE KNOWN, that only a small number of people would get these trophies, your so called "pro racers". But what about the completionists, that gave your game a chance, because the trophy list looked doable ? What about the casual gamers, that are frustrated right now, because they will NEVER get these trophies ?
And even if you didn't know it in the beginning, we are on PAGE 21, goddamnit ! 21 pages full of complaints, bug reports, proofs of broken update and so on.....
You really don't want to change it ? Oh, excuse me, i forgot: you're leaving an "open door".
I think (and others will agree with me) that you'll close that door very soon. Like I said, when people give up, becuase they got tired of posting about your broken, halb-baked update.
Thanks EA, that was my first and last game. No wonder you have been chosen the worst company in america two times in a row.
Oh, and don't forget: MOUTH PROPAGANDA IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ADVERTISING
Hello EA_TOM,
I think I have a stupid nick but for sure you beat me here. I want to congratulate your company. Not a lot of game developers can afford to neglect the gamer's needs and to behave so arrogant with their customers. I guess you have a very nice profit since you really don't care about the people who make your profit actually.
As a lot of people say your game is no longer fun. What you have done with the gold medals is let's say f*cking up the whole game. Don't worry NFS was not something special at all on first place but for sure now is no fun at all. Yes if you ask I like keeping my games to 100% with the trophies. That's why I bought your cheap way to stick your fans to NFS with this gold medals. I have a plat on dirt rally which is very hard game. Yes you are right it is a simulator. Your game is not simulator if you haven't realized that. You cannot ask your players to achieve this scores in such unrealistic game as yours. I will continue to play till I get all of the gold medals somehow...And this will be the last NFS I will ever buy. Years ago I stopped buying FIFA for similar reason. If more players do the same as me I think you might have less profit and finally start listening to your customers.
The last thing as a free advise to you. Being so arrogant won't help you in the future. Believe me.

Mike i will be honest with You. If they don't fix this and i am 100% that this not happen they can start later listening customer but will be too late because no one will believe and forget this behaviour. Because we bought this game right now and after 6 months maybe more but less than year they stopped support. Who want see newest game like NFS, BF MEC (Mirrors Edge Catalyst )after this? Tell me who?No one and will be worst because like i said people will be remember this behaviour and this time advertisment like EA starting listening customers like was few years earlier don't convince customers. Because was the same situation earlier with NFS. Sad but true and this is fact.
Besides why people starting turn against NFS?I will tell you this is simple because are guys from Ghost Studio who did Need For Speed like Undercover, The run and Rivals. Who played know what those game represents. Nothing. They can't compare with others NFS because this is offence for olders and greatest NFS who played in my life. Last good NFS was Most Wanted but multi wasn't good but at least campaign was good, really good. Tell me what is good in this NFS?Story - this game never needed story, beside is poor really poor this is was only waste money in my opinion but ok we got. Connection with game is poor who got idea that need internet to single player this is another stupid idea but got ok. But i don't see any reason why this should have online, behaviour AI this is river really because never saw that stupid behaviour especially on drifts events, car spawn another river sometimes respawn one second from You, about bugs or lags dont tell because all know this.
The best Need for Speed in my opinion was Need For Speed Hot Porsuit on PS3. For me this was something fresh, new and wanted play online 6 months after platinium where got a lot fun but all was great, gameplay,mission idea and map. This was the best NFS who played 🙂
Gonna do this like many people. Just want finish this somehow but don't know how much time i have to spend because like wrote above pretending me from this trophy and want say good bye one of the greatest series who was always in my life. Only dont play two NFS because players warning me that not worth buy and play.
Zera
P.S
They should have medal really because this first time when someone ruin pleasure playing games because who try do this feel only frustration and never even imagine that this is possible but how we see is possible.I don't know really don't know how people got more time to do last update game and ruin every hard work in every NFS was realised except 3 like wrote above and others games from EA studio that people starting turn against this company. Another think is really suprising EA behaviour because instead talk with studio or doing something with this mess they are silence which means that they defend studio who really screw job. But maybe they realised later but like I said will be too late. Why i wrote that will be too late?Because never in my life got a lot messages about bad opinions about behavior, game etc. Really

Zerathel, I hate to say it but you are 100% right my friend. This arrogant guys will not change anything. Like I said I'm not one of the wise guys that are just complaining but what EA did this time was really too much. This will be my last NFS. I haven't missed a single game since the first came out in 1994 I think. This will be my last one for sure. I really hate to say that this historical game was ruined through the years and now thanks to the GHOST studio the game is really dead now. I stopped buying FIFA 10 years ago now I will stop buying NFS. Don't worry Ghost Studios there are a lot of games on the market.
Specially writing to the guy with the awesome nick EA-Tom. How can you mark the thread as solved when you haven't solved anything. The people who want this stupid bronze trophy still cannot get it. You are just ridiculous. You game is NOT SIMULATOR. I will give you a simple comparison. Dirt Rally is SIMULATOR. There is really everything about mastering the corners with the proper speed (just for you to know proper speed doesn't mean drifting with 250 km/h in one lane like in your game). For what mastering are we speaking in NFS. I'm now playing touge event where additional to the buggy traffic, 7 more idiots are bumping and hitting me. The EA-Tom guy will probably say that I'm not maintaining enough speed. Well sometimes I really mess up on some corners but even tough the opponents cannot catch up. Sometimes I'm making perfect drifts in the turns and nevertheless the opponents are behind me and start bumping me. So again here we are speaking only about luck. It's not mastering the corners with drift believe me. So as a bottom line I have to do 27 more frustrating races to get a *ty bronze trophy (somehow after a lot of anger and frustration I got 13). Also tried with my Logitech G29. It was the most ridiculous thing I have ever done on my console, because one more time this game is NOT SIMULATOR.
@EA-Tom again: If you don't make the difference between SIMULATOR and ARCADE racing game don't hesitate to contact me. I will be glad to explain it to you.

The best part is that they showed Yourself how buggy is this game really 🙂 This is ironic no one saw those bugs until was released update with gold medals. This is Fail in this year 🙂 Instead doing something a little easy or easier and hide somehow bugs they discovered all bugs in this game. We even didn't search those bugs 🙂 This is solid proof how this was tested 🙂 Sorry wasn't even 🙂

Explain someone from EA how this is possible that IIkazzlII got 105 xp reputation and now got 87? D I see that something is missing check this thread everyday

First of all I wanna take a minute to thanlk Zerathel, you are my friend the voice of the peoples. Everytime I come over there, you say exactly what I had in mind. What is your PSN ? lol. Also, I wanna thank EA, for turning at least 100K fans against them. I always believed that Activision were the bad guys, but never in a million years they woulda done what you guys have done. With that being said, just know one thing EA and EA_Tom since apparently you report every feedback to the team... Let's see it that way. Just the fact that there is 21 pages of peoples complaining shows how much we care about this game. Since you've made this game for us, I would like to ask you, repair it, for us. We only want the Prestige Challenges time to be fair because just the Bronze time is more than enough for us. Just the bronze medals made the game too hard for most of us, and even if some peoples have 20-30-40, all medals, I work 42 hours a week... It is never going to be possible for me, a casual gamer. I understand you need to put the time in, but you also gotta take into consideration the world in which your game takes place. It is not a Forza game we talking here, nor a Grand Turismo... it's a urban city, full of cars, cops, and trucks... How do expect us to even put that aside while we driving super fast ?. Just think about it. And once again, thanks EA_Tom for monetoring all feedbacks. I hope EA will understand our concerns, and do the right thing, for the fans.
- Anonymous9 years ago
I would like see proof that our feedback was direct to EA Ghost studio.
Is this possible Tom? Because i afraid that nothing was direct to EA/Ghost. Also did You tested solution what I proposed? Enough time was to test time in speed event and drift event because only one needed to check this.
Zera
P.S
Thank You for kinds words. I just write what average player think about this situation because i am the same situation like You and others. My psn is the same like this nick 🙂
- 9 years ago
It's funny because PSN and Xbox are two very separated communities. Yet, we are able to put all our differences aside to unite against this *. That's where you need to understand EA, that something needs to be done. Otherwise the next game will definitely be a flop.
- Anonymous9 years ago
Again, i apologize for my english but this site here seems to be the best way to reach someone of EA.
Do you know the play4 magazin? The biggest PlayStation-magazin in Germany with many thousand followern. Someone wrote a small article about our problem. About the Lags, issues and many disappointed gamers and trophyhunters. The editors of the magazin wrote translated like "(...) what we can do is to warn everyone out there, that the patch is actually rubbish. And we are hoping that EA finaly listen to their community and react to the massive (negative) Feedback for the prestige mode".
Again EA, this is your forum, we are the people who bought your games and we are the people who maybe will never buy a NfS again. And our friends too. We only want a little change on the prestige mode, that we can all do it without this extremly hard difficulty. We only want the little trophy that our work for years was not useless.
More time in each race, no bots, no other cars, play offline without lags, only silver requiered, there are many options to make us happy.
EA tell me, where are you? Are you going to fix this? Could we get a answer?
- Anonymous9 years ago
Right now not only we and our friends but also others people. If someone can translate this article and past on forums and also own country paper site about this will be too loud and can lost a lot customers. I personally would like avoid this and just got answer that will be patch or not. Because ech again have to repeat every aciton has reaction. Always was be,be and will be.This is the simplest rule on this worlds. Being silene right now is not good idea so maybe finally listen us and do this patch? We don't want a lot from You. Only reasonable times, drifts and without stupid behaviour AI in drifts events

Hello EA_Tom,
hope that marking the thread as SOLVED does not mean that nobody from you reads it anymore. Just wanted to share something with you from my game experience yesterday. I was stuck for some hours on a touge event where I needed to score 750 000 drift points to get the gold. After maybe at least 50-60 retries my best result was 590 000 points. In the last attempt somehow all the other opponents crashed so I could calmly drift the whole event (I don't even notice the traffic and the police anymore). The score I got was more than 810 000. Do you get my point? Yes it's all about luck. As I said I consider myself as a pretty decent driver. That's why I started writing in this forum. I just see that everything here is luck. So do we have to make some rituals now before each event so that we will have more luck....was that really your goal???
Also one last tip for you. Check also the Xbox and PS4 forums. There are much much more people complaining about this than here.
- Anonymous9 years ago
":I wanted to play the game then was tol not to
hear its messe up now
broken even
playing NFS Rivals instead"This is one of thousand opinion about this game. Tell me EA how this is feel when someone do mistake and do nothing. Do You think that can convince people to play others game after this?No one has any guaranntee that this behaviour can repeat in future because ech once again repeat this situation never should have place. Like i said we are not only few people but a lot people know about this issue. Right now got even article in play4magazine in Germany.. Also another issue who got idea that AI instead racing just hit you every time?This is proof that someone don't have any idea how do reasonable hard because this is stuppidly hard. Understand our point that someone do this without thinking serious and now You got mess with this game.

Guys EA_Tom has left the building, he's marked the issue as solved so it looks sorted to newcomers, when in reality, he has no answers, he has no clue, and he doesn't care.
This thread has been the hottest one here in weeks, and EA staff are running away from it, hoping we will forget. Ha, not happening. On a lighter note I stopped 12 people from buying NFS in last weeks XBOX sales. Go me!
EA are cowards, who are afraid of their own community, seeing a moderator hide in shame is embarrassing for EA.
EA_Tom you should be ashamed of yourself, you have proved your worth here, and worthless it is, I strongly advise you find another job, because you suck at this one.
Example? You have tons of people telling you of issues with DLC, you mark it as solved and run away. You have no use to your own community, and all you said is no doubt lies to derail us in hopes we forget. EA_Useless is a more fitting name. I will refer to you as this from now on.
Anyways patch or no patch, my disc made an excellent frisbee, wont be touching EA garbage again, how the mighty have fallen...EA_Useless is yet another example.
Anyone on the fence about this game...DO NOT BUY IT......get Forza Horizon 2 instead, it's much better, or Driveclub. Heck even The Crew was better.
- Anonymous9 years ago
I got better news for You. Part people who even did trophy told me that this was last game from EA. Wished me good luck with this ekhm lets say that this is DLC. (Also waited on patch and trying do this, still read this topic because they supported us still). People are here without register read and are in shock how EA threat customers. Really great job and You do and still doing great advertisment on future.

Edit:
Yes i know i deleted very important information but maybe they are working on patch (HARD BELIEVE BUT GOT HOPE THAT IS) and right now don't write about advantage about how many dollars can earn other company. Propably those number will be grown because if longer this is sitation is then more people will see how customers are threat. About people who are playing on pc and their frustration I don't even tell you but got information that there even is not good like You think.

Got all the golds yesterday but I still don't change my mind that these need to change !! I spent hours upon hours swearing and wanting to break the disc and cursing EA ! Change the requirements EA or this is the last game I buy from you.
It is just broken and so obvious that the game is programed to kill your runs and just make you restart over and over.
I can say good riddance to this game once and for all.
- Anonymous9 years ago
After two days i managed first gold in drift events. I couldn't do this earlier because fantastic AI turn 180 when i am last and hit me over time that i couldn't drift, sometimes got spawn car one second before me, frame decreses and bug wth crash. My god i need 18 gold medals but when i think about this i am sad that have to fight with something stupid because skill right now don't decided but luck. when AI didn't hit me i did 80k drift so no one will tell that this decided skill because 100% depends from luck.

To EA/Ghost Games
What You did?Answer yourself what You did. Got 2 months for doing last DLC (better options was not released this and announced that You are working on new NFS because many player will remeber that this game was good and enjoyable). This DLC bring a lot problems to You because discovered all bugs, killing pleasure for playing, and turn players against EA. What the hell You did?I can't understand why with doing last dlc you destroy game who was hard work because spent a lot hours to do and destroy own hard work. When I played before last DLC i gave this game 7/10.Really this is good notice a lot people gave this game 7/10. Right now this game should have 3/10 because are too many bugs that even can't play normally.What You did with own game?I never understand how this is possible. Also i read about tuning that cars are worse instead better. My god people start think and at least fix mistake because this can repair all situation and this game still have chance to defend and we are even do this, so maybe first time trust us and You will see that this happen. No one is happy from this situation You and We. And believe me that people will not forgot about this no will remind and aware everyone casual player,trophyhunter,achievehunter about this situation and easily convince to not buy Your games because like I said earlier we signed every word what we wrote. Everyone here got very good opinion no one from us lie here but write what they did and will do. There is no options that someone are here and lie You. Also we are not here to fight with You because we are here since beginning topic and pleased You about patch for reasonable hard in this game. Decided yourself what You choose because right now you lost propable 12,000,000 dollars because are not 100,000 but 200,000 people and can be more. So this is right now think about this or will be worst. No this is no like You think imagine numbers. Both community got propably 300,000 (personally think that are more because not everyone has gamecard so this is hard count but those exist because they wrote to me and even didn't know that are trophyhunters. Why i know this. Because in every year community grown and I can see this. In the beginning was small but right now this is still growing. Right now i didn't mistake what happened propably will got right again. We are not kids, we are players who have experience in playing few years, we know exacly how advertisment works, how dlc is doing we all know this, that they are cut from main game and sell like dlc we know this. We accepted this because we want peace but this behaviour is far away that we can stay silene and do nothing like was earlier and You will see that this not happen, everyone will aware from buying every game because this is ridioculus situation and behaviour that topic was created in the same day when was dlc in game 27 aprill, and 10 may you announced that this game is complete and working on new nfs when easily everyone can say that this game is broken, and unplayable sometimes. And this is first time that a lot players instead feel enjoy ,be happy to play game are frustrated, are angry after played this game. What your goal was? Those emotions? Ok You got this. People want be happy when meet something discovered something and not trying 1000 times because bugs, stupid ai pretending to even normally drive. Think yourself what You did.
Also i would like remind that about reduce time, drifts i wrote in forum NFS still was silence from You. So why You answered on twitter "why not write this and link to Your site", when You do nothing after read this. You know that advertisment few years earlier that you starting listening players in NFS because You got decrease sales this game? We still remember this and time will show us that this true or not because right now it say us that wasn't true. Like I said earlier problem should be fixed 2 weeks ago but no you wanted mark as solved and be silence but You got wrong direction and makes that people are more angry because this show us not respect customer. This is fact but a lot were situation earlier that happened again and try finally understand that can be situation not doing one, two times, three times but notovertimes because we got borders. And those borders are definetelly crossed.
Zera
P.S
Think very clearly because this situation can easily repeair because those people who complain can easily change mind and told that EA listen and threat customer with respect and this good example this topic. See every this hard situation can turn on Your advantage, only someone want try do something. This is big difference try or give up. And finally realised that we are not here to blame, complain because we want blame no we are here to tell you that something was do wrong and explained You that what should be change. Even yesterday i wrote to guy that we have to wait because i still got hope that this will be fixed but we want know when.
P.S2
For clear situation no one is angry about prestige mode because same idea was good but did this in this way was mistake big mistake. Because all understand that this must be hard but not stuppidly hard because someone got conception with average 10,000 worlds recors or more and do this like gold. Reasonable hard got this that after a lot tried and sacrifice enough time You will able do this. How i am able do this that in second race Han in drift don't have any chance to even learn track how i should drift because AI attack me overtime?Where is fun for trying something? Becaause i don't see any fun, propably no one see. Understand now what is wrong?

This video is all about EA . I wouldn't be surprised if this DLC happened because some executive said to them "we need to keep people playing this so the servers don't look dead". Also, EA should be sued for that document where an executive assumes they target kids with M rated games. Horrible company, feel sorry for nice people that might have no choice now but to work there, this topic is but a small part of the disgusting thing EA is... - 9 years ago
