Re: What's up with the impossible muscle PR?

Any who might be racing in the Muscle Tourney will notice that EA has decided to include cars with ridiculously high PR that no player can reach. What is it with with game?

I've worked for almost a year on maxing out every car I have, only to discover IT'S NOT ENOUGH! My ford Mustang maxes out at 802, but in the Tourney, I'm racing against Mustang's with 849 (and it's not a razor either)???

The game is rigged to ensure no matter how much you progress, or how skilled you are, you will always be at a disadvantage.

@WildeKnight07 It's not rigged.

You have the Ford Shelby GT500 Snoop Dogg Edition from over a year ago? That is if you played Snoop Dogg special event in No Limits from October 7, 2015 to October 12, 2015?

With 6 stars, it's capable of reaching 850 PR.

Mine's currently at 830 PR with 5 stars and rebuilds for all 6 performance parts locked.

    Actually it is rigged to players' disadvantage no matter how much people try to sugar-coat the truth and justify it.

    I'm not referring to the Shelby... I'm referring to stock standard Ford Mustang GT's with PR of 850 (not Razors), when my Mustang GT on 6 stars maxes out at 802. It's ridiculous that we cannot reach the same PR levels of the in game AI opponents' cars of the same model.

    The fact that everyone just accepts this, doesn't make it reasonable. I'm not asking for any unfair advantages, freebies or handouts... If I'm going to play against AI opponents, all I want is to play a game on fair terms. If I've gone to the trouble of maxing out a car's blueprints and parts, at worst, I should face opponents of the same max PR levels and will hold an advantage over any opponent who hasn't maxed out their PR.

    @WildeKnight07 You have screenshots to prove this?

    I have seen it myself. What the game does is they allow cars operated by the AI to have higher than their max PR if they are in a class where there is another avaliable car with a higher max.

    In your example, you can have a GT500 that has a max of 850, so the computer can allow a 5.0 to have 830.

    I have done street class tournaments with Golf's with a 680 PR. They don't go that high, but since the WRX is 703, the game doesn't care.
