Solution for rep after lvl 50 and end game content

Once you reach both level 50 yourself and for your crew youll notice reputation becomes pointless to get.

A simple solution for this and for adding a huge replay ability factor to the game is a global leaderboard showing the players and crews with the highest reps.


You could call the player leaderboard the most wanted and it would display the players who’ve gained the most reputation overall or whose had the biggest rep score in one night without getting busted.

I’m sure myself and many other players would compete to try and be the #1 most wanted racer in the game.


This in addition to displaying world records on races and speed/drift traps around the map would expand this games shelf life exponentially.

Comment or up vote if you agree with my thoughts and help us let the devs know this is what we’re interested in seeing being implemented into this awesome game.

  • Currently you can run around in circles going over jumps and just rack up the rep so it wouldn't really be a competition more so than people exploiting a flaw.  Adding more leader boards is a good thing as long as there isn't an exploit in the game to abuse to get the rating.

    @Deciballistic Although that exploit exists it really doesnt rack up all that much points, the main benefit you get from doing that is increasing your heat level quickly. Which from my experience of racking up a high rep score is a bad idea.

    Players who are going out and pulling 5 good night races in a row avoiding heat until the end are going to smash scores of someone just doing laps in the raceway.

    4-5 50-60k races racked me up about 2.5million rep once I eventually hit heat level 5 and ran out of repairs. 

    Besides I’m sure we could just get a patch that starts making speed/jump traps give less if youre spamming them over and over forcing players to move around the map like with how races work currently.

    I 100% agree that what this game needs right now are more leaderboards.

  • Even if we could just get a tracker on the crew stats page to show members total reps I’d be happy. Night time already tracks our current totals but were the only ones who can see it.

    Currently the crew page will show the past rep scores brought into the crew but it won’t save any high scores which sucks since your monster score from a night just disappears after the crew does 5 or so things to clog the notifications feed.

  • @TheWaIkingDevGaining rep just for the number is extremely worthless imo. Sounds super boring. Money needs to be earned at night after 50 rep instead, or they could make it so the more rep you have the more money you can make in races at night or the day. . Also ..They need to have online speed list that just upload everyone's track times to a online web site like they did in need for speed world. I had no shortage of fun climbing the leader boards back then.

  • The only reason for rep is to level yourself and a crew to 50. After that it's pointless. During the grind you should have at least unlocked all the parts so after that cash is the only useful thing.

    So make rep useful for something else (maybe cosmetics or whatever), maybe add decent leaderboards or give some other incentive to play night races.

    Currently I only play night races to test new cars and see how they hold up, but that's pretty much it.

  • I'd say have fun and good luck competing haha.  Not really my thing, but I like the idea.

  • I just like to race fools...I got a Lambo, a Ferrari, a Mclearen and that P car all the best ones...I can't spell or pronounce the name...the P car the one before the Mclearen at $2 million. I got zillions of dollars. I can buy any of the cars..except the ones thate require...you know, complete this task..Like jump through bill boards and stuff. 

    I want the Ferarrie FXX....I try to get fools to join my party but nobody ever does...even though with that P car...I am the fastest in the game...only a Dev can beat me...

    I am a  good racer...I blast at 230 MPH.....Cops aint nothing compared to me...I fly right passed Rhinos

    My reputation is 30 million and climbing...I want to see how much Rep I can actually get...Is it endless? 

    It is just a bumber you can only get 4 Ulitmate+ parts..I only have one Elite+ part which is wierd. 

    In the Need for speed reboot I got really into customizing my car with stickers and designs...I lost some of my creativity...But thats what the NFS HEAT is all about, make a dope fast expensive car, beat fools online. Basically just stroke your ego all day. 

    And their is the drift stuff...kinda pointless but fun. 

    But I will say, in really bums me out the Lamborghini Adventador is not the best car in the game. It is my favorite car. I got the 18 one, I don't like roadsters. And the fact all cars are not fully customizable BLOWS....thats the whole fun of the game tricking your car out....cars with zero customization...what the hell. 

    And why is there so many ugly worlthless cars in the game, and very fw million dollar cars...I am not interested in driving junk....
