NFS Heat Level 3+
Can we please talk about how ridiculous the cops become overpowered after heat level 2? EA has made this awesome atmospheric night time mode where the cops are truly out to get you, but they're so ov...
If you have Heat 3, 4, 5 it means that you have propably good car around 400 or 400+ and want Ultimate+ parts. Then you need to worry about cops and how aggressive they are. Heat 5 it is not for p8ssies. You want the best parts then you need make decision: Yes im up for risk and loose money or ultimate part or take it all.
I have a couple of problems with the cops.
1. If a car has been reinforced to cause damage. In real life that frame fitting for it will add weight. Adding weight makes the car slower therefore having their corvettes cause more damage to my car then a head on collision with a rhino, and still have the speed to keep up is not even slightly realistic. Not to mention, the damage decrease extra for your car does nothing in the slightest as I still take huge damage of a single slight swipe.
2. The cops randomly spawning. Now I understand they will randomly spawn I get that but when Im drifting on the course within the abandoned raceway track and they spawn directly in front of me. That I call bull on. Theres no way you wouldnt be able to see a cop enter than when going round the drift track. So you could easily escape. Whats worse is this happened to me 4 times in one night. (Yes I have an easy escape as one of the jumps takes you out of the track and destroys any cop that attempts it. And I can easily go back in once the cops are out of the way. But to have them then respawn right next to you again after one or two drift completions is annoying.
3. The chopper should just be removed from the game. It has no use or sense. Ive got to lvl 5 heat doing the drifting in the track and escaping via the ramp to exit the parkway. But at lvl 5 when this happened I had the chopper directly above me when I jumped out. But because the cars lost sight I escaped even with the chopper hovering above where I parked in the ally.
4. The cops dont seem to care what level you set the games ai to. The cops dont change.
These are exactly the reasons that I have issues with the way this game handles the cops mechanic, it's unrealistic.
However with Ghost Games now fired, the chances of fixes or tweaks are completely up in the air. There's no telling what will happen to Heat now or if it will even receive any more future updates / content.
