This game is incredibly frustrating
Just got busted by the cops again, lost over $30,000 bank which left me with just $3000 This system is complete garbage and had I known it was in the game I may not have bought it. I’ve only played ...
Forum Discussion
Its as if EA and Ghost have turned "NFS" into "Need to crash into everything" and swaded the game to benefit the game and not the player by any means. They've turn regular cops into rhinos (head on collision, cant avoid) and with the new update things are even worse. And to make matters worse you have these "YouTubers" that tell people not to complain about the crap they produced.
I've been playing this series since i was a kid and its seems like more than ever its a way for EA and Ghost Bully people mentally and financially.
I've got have half the mind to call Playstation and ask them how they feel about losing customers to Microsoft because EA and Ghost cant do there jobs.
It is a form of bullying, truthfully. I can't really say financially in Heat's case, since it has no loot-boxes, and only one micro-transaction. But:
- Overpowered cops
- Horrible acting AI traffic
- Horrible AI traffic spawn rates
- Overpowered AI racers on anything but easy for most cars (see my viper race video on medium difficulty)
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsU55zRq8tQ
(older video, elite parts)
- Horrible acting AI racers (they block you, ram you, and slow down when you get too close to block you.)
How can a player feel good about these things?
In any case, after playing a few days after the update, I've gotten the cars bought and tuned that I wanted and already left the game.. again. I highly doubt that I'll be re-downloading the game until the next update.
Have you experienced your vehicle basically exploding of the pavement yet? and mind you that's from absolutely Hint Nothing, let alone being "kicked/ shoved" on or off of the pavement by invisibility.
Or have you gotten Steering Lock out yet? it's pretty intermittent but, it still happens more than I would like, which would be not at all.
I agree with you, its like the people that programmed the AI have Zero Knowledge of the race world and what Integrity is.
To be a little more clear of my Financial bullying comment ............. It was more aimed at the fact that EA and Ghost released this game under the condition it's in and that is totally unethical, like here's this totally awesome game and we'll take your money but we're not going to tell you that it plays like crap.
And Secondly, instead of just taking/fining a straight amount when your busted its a percentage !!!! Crap, like , oh you've got a bunch of money and didn't just spend HOURS playing, cool , we'll just take more money from you.
Because Fans like me that can enjoy The GRIND in the this game to get all "the cool stuff", want to feel like they're being cheated/taken advantage of/ robbed instead of enjoying the game and the fun it could be.
The more I talk about and see certain parts of this game, it seams like there is political subliminal messaging in it.
Yea that's true in that sense. The game was released in an incomplete state, full of bugs, and doesn't even have a full story which makes no sense whats-so-ever. And yep, the amount of money that is lost from getting busted is pretty annoying; I hadn't even noticed that it was a percentage lost and not a set amount.
So far I haven't noticed the issue with my car exploding on the pavement or invisible walls (actually I might have come across one). I drive with the keyboard, so I've currently had no issues with steering locking up on me.
I dunno about subliminal messaging, as I haven't gotten that kinda vibe. What this game does tho (at least it feels like such) is constantly feel like it trying to troll me. The cops feel like a troll attempt, the AI racers feel like a troll attempt, and quite obviously the traffic feels like a massive troll attempt.
Yah that Steering lock up seems to happen under "double throttling" or "Getting back on the Gas" in long corners, should be turning or sliding/drifting and it just doesnt.
About the Subliminal Messaging, never noticed that literally 99.9% of the characters are of brown ethnical skin color, and a good portion of the finish/start line says " take over"? That in the loading screen to start race they're all speaking Spanish. And I don't know how far into the game you are but my Rep is in the 35million area and "Lucas" is always complaining about how I don't feed him and when am I going to get out.
