Cops
Personally, I am liking the game. My biggest gripes are difficulty and cops. This game on relaxed doesn't seem relaxed. I've had a crazy time trying to win races. One of the big issues are the police...

This has already been mentioned in this forum, but it cannot be stressed enough how much the game experience is ruined by too frequent cop chases and redundant chopper patrols.
The fun in this game comes from the races, missions, car upgrades etc, but it's all too often interrupted by cop patrols which especially on higher heat levels are sometimes impossible to avoid.
I've read many comments where players where quitting the game in the middle of a cop chase, because they where tired of starting yet another cop chase after having just finished two or three others when all they were trying to do is get to a mission.
I think there are several improvements that could be done in this regard:
- remove the choppers altogether - there are enough car patrols that are successfully ruining the experience anyway.
- reduce the amount of patrols, especially once you manage to escape a chase - a successful escape should be rewarded, not punished by throwing you into another chase.
- add another difficulty level which greatly reduces the police frequency and the speed with which the heat is raised for those who want to enjoy racing and not spend 80% of the time on escaping from the cops and avoid rage quitting.
- let the heat decrease after a short time of not being in an active chase
Let's make NFS fun again!
Totally agree and think the cops and helicopters are too OP and should be nerved.
Yesterday was hiding inside the parking lot at the top of the map for half an hour with 2 helicopters flying/hovering overhead that just didn't want to leave and no way they could see me all this while not being in an active chase by cops and already evaded them.
Later got a chance to get away and moved to another place and was hiding not even 3 minutes later the helicopter was directly flying to me and started hovering above me.
And again no chance the helicopter could have spotted me.
Either helicopters need to be fixed or nerved or something and should leave after a few minutes to refuel etc. and agree heat level should decrease at some point or like in underground when changing colour or mods of car or something to that extent.
Should add Heat had the best idea with the cops you race through the day and at night you battle it out with the cops and when returning to the garage your heat level decreased.
