From what i can see, not many things make sense...
1. Cops are tougher than a tank.
2. Cops are faster than any other car in a game.
3. You have a choice of passive items which includes More HP for your car, Less Damage for impacts, Less Damage from Cops which unlock too late in the game to even be worth it.
4. Speedbreakers are gone... (what the f@$k is up with that?)
5. You lose money when you get busted, instead of a more "fun" vehicle impound which will make you get and customize more cars instead of playing the whole game with a single car.
Why not:
1. Add "Speedbreakers" in-game all around the map (Billboards, Scaffoldings, etc.). Once through a Speedbreaker, Cops get damaged based on the type of Speedbreaker and the proximity to it. Cops within 5 meters get disabled. Cops within 10 meters lose a percentage of HP.
2. Scale Max speed and HP of cop cars based on heat level:
- Heat Level 1 - Cops can take 2 hits (full impact) or 5 hits (lateral swipe). Maximum speed 170 KPH
- Heat Level 2 - Cops can take 3 hits (full impact) or 6 hits (lateral swipe). Maximum speed 180 KPH
- Heat Level 3 - Cops can take 3 hits (full impact) or 7 hits (lateral swipe). Maximum speed 180 KPH
- Heat Level 4 - Cops can take 4 hits (full impact) or 7 hits (lateral swipe). Maximum speed 200 KPH
- Heat Level 5 - Cops can take 5 hits (full impact) or 8 hits (lateral swipe). Maximum speed 250 KPH
Rhino units cannot be damaged, instead they just have to be avoided.
3. Add upgradeable "Reinforcements" TAB for cars in the "Performance" tab, that will contain:
- Cage

----> Sport (level 15) - 25% more HP, 10% loss of maximum speed, 5% loss in acceleration. $25k
----> Pro (level 25) - 50% more HP, 8% loss of maximum speed, 4% loss in acceleration. $50k
----> Super (level 40) - 75% more HP, 6% loss of maximum speed, 3% loss in acceleration. $75k
----> Ultimate (level 50) - 100% more HP, 2% loss of maximum speed, 1% loss in acceleration. $100k

Improvements can be brought constantly into the game, all you need is a bit of imagination and will. Judging by EA's track record (pun intended), they lack both will and imagination so expect no changes to happen.
You already spent the money on the game and that's what EA wants.
@EA Prove me wrong. I dare you!
Bingo you are absolutely right 😉
Loved your ideas for a way to get control over these cops in Heat game.
EA all about taking our cash and Ghost Studios has released two incomplete games prior to Heat.
Sadly Heat was incomplete as well on opening day. 😭
Those saying the cops are easy must be using a cheat trainer.
Because many of us are pro NFS racers and are getting our cars crushed and shut down by these cops.
We make cash and rep and the cops come sniffing around and bust us hard.
I don't like this game just for one of many reasons.
Thanks your very helpful ideas for Ghost Studios to roll out an update on these cops.
Have a great day. 😁
- 6 years ago@BLVD69 EA really should find another dev to replace piece of junk Ghost.Maybe lure Alex/Fiona back to Criterion to continue both NFS/BO series will be a nice choice(if possible)
- 6 years ago@GK3512 If black box was still around non of this would happen Need for Speed was still at its roots but now it seems like it has lost the way.
- 6 years ago@selticus1978 Really?the only BB game true to NFS root was HP2-PS2.BB was the dev chased FF trend and changed NFS completely.If any dev should bring the series back to its root it should be Criterion for their great work in the sorta rushed HP2010
