Just shut down the game for a full week and pack as many useful updates as u can into the game. new cars, new races, new events, cops vs robbers, just throwing an idea out there.

OK EAGames read this and read this well because I'm pointing out some things you need to fix and if you don't like it, tough. [It's not like your doing good anyway]

-User Alexis_Starfire is the most rudest, hateful person known to the NFSW universe/site and is making racist like remarks, and whether you guys and gals at EAGames think this is "acceptable", it ISN'T. A person "hating" a majority of a certain populace because they chose to be DIFFERENT[such as not paying for the starter pack] is a FORM OF RACISM. THUS ALEXIS IS COMMENTING IN A RACIST LIKE WAY. You need to either address this problem or someone is going to get offended so MUCH that they will have NO choice but to take legal action and get some sort of compensation out of you EA. You denied and ignored my warnings before but "THIS".....what he/she is doing?-----HAS. TO. STOP. NOW. OR ELSE.[You have been forewarned for your OWN safety]

-You said you did NOT take any form of verbal abuse and/or profanity on the comment board. I see more cuss words than a graffiti wall in New York. This only proves that NO ONE at EAGames is monitoring the comment board and that a young teen can be exposed to this language and then guess what? A parent takes legal action and obtains some sort of compensation for her young child learning various cuss words and various forms of "typing them" to dodge the actual corrective spelling of them.

-This "Starter Pack" problem is ALSO a legal action waiting to happen, so I suggest something be done about it. Yes, if I remember right there are no refunds, BUT also I don't recall "scamming" "LEGAL" either. You were supposed to give these people what they want and you haven't. As I said another legal action waiting and piling up as you read this.

I don't care about the updates, gameplay, or anything. Heck I look at the "Ask Marc" vids and criticize the whole thing laughing to myself. To believe such a POWERFUL company would do this to the majority of the faithful fans is immensely disappointing. And plus you have one of the largest populated gaming companies, so why is it that it takes so long for much "demanded updates" to come to these faithful fans? Why hurt them? From my observation[because I also study actions of the human psyche]it seems you do not care what the fans want, only what you think is best for them that YOU can provide. And comments such as mine will not get to anyone. It will be thrown away and/or laughed at by the devs and producers of EA. And to think I looked up to EA for the best arcade racing genre ever made.[Which is the Need For Speed series, and besides Namco's Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune Series- I do believe if they create a MMORG it may topple this game] I am not "demanding" nor am I "threating" anyone at EAGames, I am simply saying this: Please consider what the fans think, and "respect" their wishes. It's what make a game magnificent. It also what makes a game fun and enjoyable by everyone of all ages. Why do you think Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport are so popular? I'm pretty sure heavy swearing, scams by the "company" who made the game, and "racist like" remarks to others are not what makes their games so popular. Just please EA, you were amazing in the past, don't let such a anticipated MMORG go down in history as one of the most "horrible online racing experiences of all time".

I'm just excited and proud that you guys are showing signs of improvement. Fixing any of the bugs, not to mention all of the ones you smushed in this patch alone, combined with adjusting aspects of the game according to community input, is exactly what was necessary to bring morale for the game up a level. Those of you who are complaining about other issues need to understand that at least SOMETHING was improved and that the dev team is obviously very caught up in a HUGE pile of stuff to take care of, so just be patient and don't rant like 5-year-olds.

Imagine typing all of this code in the link below for hours and hours and you'll get a better idea how much mind-power, along with actually being able to stay awake, it takes to make any program, let alone a freaking video game: (Might have to copy and paste this)

yeah i think that game is going to:SHAME FOR THE NFS SERIES - WORST MMO RACING GAME EVER
why i saying that???
because the game reeeeaally is starting in get boring

those REP and CASH rewards are getting more and more decreased(prove?:since that last update my cash rewards are 1000 at the minimun,and after that they go to 600)

the game is only a beta,a fuckin beta,when i was playing the beta,i thought when they realase the full game will have more cars and races,etc,but when i play the ´´full realase´´ for the first time i got really disapoint,the game has changed nothing,and after taht i thought ´´wait that is only the beginning,i sure that game will have more things in the future´´so what??now the game have changed nothing again

that MP is a fuckin troublemaker,the game crash EVERYTIME i try to enter in a mp race,and then when i can enter,BANG! i start the race and ALL THE OTHERS RACERS ON THE RACE HAS STARTED BEFORE ME(a 10 seconds before me)and that is not a internet conection problem from mine,IS THE SERVER!
that forces me to race in sp,and that is TOTALLY BORING AND THE REWARDS ARE EVEN LOW!

EVERYTIME when i enter in a pursuit,i got 10 minutes of pursuit,at least 23 cop imobilised,40 cop deployed
but why i can´t receive the reward after that??
because that fuckin game got a problem and need to be close,fuck! that kills me

that powerups sucks and they don´t work,why??
i press the powerup button and what happen???
NOTHING,they only work after 2 seconds,DAMM after 2 seconds the police heat level 5 arrest me and why

so i´m leaving this coment,you guys need to get that game a great game,i losing my hope on that game
i´m a nfs fan because that:customizations,races,cops,cars

(sure,it´s not free,but at least get some quality to the game)


DeamonSpeeder

+100 Dude, just wait more 18 days (24th august) ... yes i mean Test Drive Unlimited 2 ;)


moonwalker97

+1 totally agree with you the game has totally lost my interest I'm at lvl 10 i would have bought a SP id they were available in my area but they aren't. The game needs more cars more races more customization and most of all unlike most mmo's there isn't enough interaction between the players except for the normal haha i won noob. I'm a nfs fan i expected more from the nfs team I don't have to wonder why they didn't remove the word beta from the homepage.
