please change the time requirements for gold its impossible to do!

I completed some of the hardest racing games and I also unlocked all achievements in every Need for Speed game before, but the requirements for silver and especially gold are just ridiculous. I won the first prestige race "Horses For Courses" with a best time of 1:58... but for gold I need 1:39. The gap is way too big.I really like the idea of a DLC with some harder events, but please change the time/points for silver/gold. It's nearly Impossible and should be changed. My suggestion is +2 seconds for silver and +5 seconds for gold.. using the current bronze requirement. I also have a bad feeling about the last ultimate event, because restarting such a long event can be a very frustrating experience. =/

Another vote here, add some faster cars or change the times, the math doesn't add up at all I think some of these golds are legit impossible even on a perfect run! This seriously needs patching. Game used to be fun this is downright stupid, one of the worst DLC's I've played.

Plus one here. Some of the other updates where too easy? Yes they were. Eddie's Challenge was the best DLC you guys came out with. New races, a bit of a challenge... This now is just frustrating, makes me wanna sell this game and never bother with a Need For Speed game again.

I don't think anyone is really against the existence of a prestige mode, I think most people are annoyed because it has achievements/trophies tied to it that only a select few people are ever going to accomplish, in a game which has so far been a fun, laid back experience for achievement/trophy hunters. And you might say "good, people should have to earn those hard achievements" and normally I'd agree, but the game has been out for so long now that it feels like a bit of a **** move dropping such mental achievements into the game this far after launch and screwing over all the average players who played it specifically because it was a fun, doable list. Some people like getting world record times, other people like getting all the achievements and moving on, but when those two combine it ruins it for the achievement hunters. By all means have a prestige mode in the game, but was it really necessary to screw over the achievement hunting crowd at the same time?I mean do you really think that all of your pro, record setting players even give a damn about achievements?

Agreed, I'm all for adding a higher difficulty tier, but this is just beyond ridiculous and it needs changing. Some of these are downright impossible, regardless of skill or car choice. Were these times the result of testing or just chosen at random?

Impossible to get gold on all Prestige events!!!

Why am I not surprised to come here and see nothing has changed. Mirror's Edge comes out tomorrow and I was going to buy it... Was... Now I'll wait a whole year before to see what kind of * they will pull and only then I may purchase it if I don't have better games to play... Used of course, so not a single cent goes to EA.
Oh, plants vs zombies 2 also was on my backlog to be purchased and played someday... Was...

Oh, and I forgot. Just completed the last DLC for The Witcher 3 yesterday. WHAT AN AMAZING WORK! Completely on par with the retail product, an example of what to do. Makes me wanna have more and more content for this game and look forward to everything else CD Projekt does. You should learn from people doing good jobs with DLCs instead of what you are doing here.

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...

EA-Toms ran away with his tail between his legs, he knows the DLC sucks, and has no answers.

Of course he is quiet. The issue is solved. Haven't you guys noticed?
Our only hope is that this will keep getting bumped until they have no other option but to notice it.
