The only time you take "overpowered" damage is when you allow them to catch upto you at a high rate of speed and you allow them to ram you because the smaller hits do next to nothing to you and doing it back to them does next to nothing as well, only the real big hits count as damage for the most part.

@JORDIRX8honestly I'm not too sure about that, with the starter Mustang with how it comes I never had any issue with it being like level 130-140 getting away from heat 2 and then being more strategic at heat 3 but nothing more.

Oh, you mean when i am going the fastest my car can go in a straight road and the cops are 1400+ yards away and they catch up in 2 seconds and no matter what i do, they perfectly match speeds with me and this is a new game, i deleted my saves to try a different car, but the same problem arises.....the cop cars are too fast and deal too much damage, i am guessing you cheated to get where you got, because the cops are too STRONG, they need nerfing, so please, stop making stuff up.
- 6 years ago@JamieK81 Well I've never had that issue at all.
I came into the game knowing the cops are going to be agressive which means they will be able to keep up with you for the most part.
But damage wise they are honestly fine, as I previously said they only really do damage when you allow them to do heavy hits to you, if it's them bumping against you while both going fast, it does literally next to nothing.
Also lol @ you thinking that I must of cheated, just get better and think about what you're doing in a police chase, it's not that hard.- 6 years ago
Ok, here's a scenario:
End of the race
Chased by cops lvl 1
Can't get rid of them for some reason
250+ KPH, lvl 1 cops overtake you
Incoming lvl 2
Twists and turns
Crash into some oncoming traffic
lvl 2 cops smash you 2 times
busted.
That's the way it's been for me since i started.

There is absolutely no way you go 250 km/h (~180/190 m/h) and not lose a Heat 1 cruiser. You either mistakenly think your car is faster than it is, or you're just not trying. Perhaps both, but there is no way your car is hitting >170m/h if you can't lose them.

I tried this on easy and was doing 170+ down a straight road with a heat level of 2. A cop passes me like I'm standing still and slams on his brakes. I'm all for a challenge, but when it seems as though the deck is stacked against you, it's just not fun.
For those of you not having problems with cops, what platform are you using? Maybe it's a platform issue? Im on a ps4. Also, what are you doing to evade? The straight line high speed doesnt work. I just experienced that myself.
- 6 years ago@Szantarious I'm on PC, playing with Xbox360 controller.
I've been able to get away from cops at Heat levels up to 3, as long as you can go above 170-180 mph. Driving in a straight line works for me, as I am able to outrun them.
However, even if I use a slower car, I'm able to lose the cops by turning corners (where they lose visibility of you) and you can use the momentum to your advantage to keep making time on the cops when they lose visibility. When you get a chance, drive off into a field, or alley, or anywhere hidden and just hang out/turn your car off.
For example, if you follow my guide (https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Quick-Guide-and-Boosting-Tips-to-Max-Level-Spoilers/td-p/8412313), and you're at the Speedway - you can run the loop and use the ramp when you have a decent enough space between you and the cops to get out of the ring, get through the alley and into the field.
There are a lot of ways to evade them, it's just a matter of being able to lose them for small moments, where you can take advantage of the situation and get away. Maybe it's skill, but seems too easy for that.- 6 years ago
"Why are so many people having a problem with the police?"
Because its hard and sometimes, without a ramp or cheap trick, near impossible to escape.
My first "Busted" was with my starter Mustang on Heat Lv1 or 2 and was expected. Meanwhile im sitting in a Mercedes AMG GT 15, Rep 34, elite radar jammer and fully upgraded to that level, car rating 368 and i can barely escape on a straight line by pure speed on heat lv1 or 2. Heat Lv 3 is my point in ending the night, escaping cops here is pure luck with ramps and going offroad.
It doesn´t matter how fast you are on the straight, there is always 1 cop "glued" at your rear.
That is my expierience with cops so far.
But i would prefer a cop Diff-Setting rather than a cop nerf overall.
