Re: Nürburgring lap times
The works LP640 (Murcielago) seems to be the fastest overall car. I got a 5:56.8 with it, and the really fast guys are just under 5:45. This is on the PC version. It's possible that the PC system a player has is having some effect on the game and the lap times you get. Shift 1 had a similar issue. Y...

Re: Drift help!!!!
The Drift Alliance 240SX is actually pretty good for the Togue drift event, because it's so slow. If you're using an analog controller, you need to use partial throttle, about 1/3rd throttle to drift with the 240SX because it has very little grip, despite also not having much power.

Re: ProStreet PC Servers shutting down April 15?
I never liked the way they did the online menu system in ProStreet or Carbon, since there's no way to tell if or how many other players are online. Most Wanted was the last NFS game to have a proper online menu, where you could look at a list of rooms and know how many players were online. The issue...

Re: New videos and many more
It's a bit difficult to take these videos of Shift 2 as being a realistic game when the players are using gamepads.

rep versus level table
The table below includes the amount of rep per level, the total rep to reach a level, the amount of rep won for a short (15 second) pursuit, the number of short pursuits per level, and the total number of short pursuits to reach a level (ignoring any lucky draw cards for rep). This gives some idea o...

Re: World Final General Discussion Thread
I started doing that, sometimes its not worth it(1x nitrous card) but sometimes i get a 800 rep card, which means almost 1000 rep for a 15 second pursuit. I have a free to play account, currently at level 34. Other than running 2 races to get to level 2, I've only done pursuits with this account, a...

You don't get them from lucky draw cards anymore, so you have to buy them with in game cash (mystery packs) which takes too long to accumulate. If you know you're probably going to get...

Re: World's new ideas.
Still though, with an MMO. The issue here is that NFS World is an online racing game, not an MMO. Other than mario kart like powerups, NFS World is not significantly different than any other racing game with a multi-player feature. The main difference is the poor quality of NFS World, such as its d...

Re: World's new ideas.
There have always been dominant cars in every NFS game, and also most racing games, so why should NFS World be any different. For example, in Underground 2, the Corolla, a starter car, is the dominant grip car, holding the top 50 time at every circuit, sprint, streetx, and url event at u2.wrecords.c...

Wow, how long did it take to get to 50th level? 70 hours, during the "headstart" period (10 hours a day for 7 days). The rep and cash rewards for pursuits were double what they are now, with terminator and most wanted skills having more effect than they do now. I would not recommend using...

Re: World Final General Discussion Thread
Anyway, what do you mean by performance boost because of a bug? Higher top speed? acceleration? handling? Not sure, since I don't do multiplayer. It was a bug reported at EA Forums, I'll try to find it later. It was enough of a performance increase to be noticable, and some players doing a test not...

Once i gain 1st, they cant do nothing. That's because of a game bug where the 1st place car gets a performance advantage in NFS World multi-player.

Re: BMW M3 vs Lamborgini
You need to use a lot of nitrous with the BMW, but it holds all the lap records at nfs-s stats. However there is a bug in multi-player mode where the lead car gets a performance advantage, and because the Silvia gets a better perfect launch, it's possible for a Silvia to get into the lead, and then ...

Re: Halloween Community Event Winners
There may be an issue in NFS World and run times. I'm not sure if this affects both single player mode as well as multi-player mode. It's possible that the game clock is being slowed down so the recorded times are better. There could also be a sensitivity to a players PC that affects actual in game ...

I didn't know Charger was that bad. The Special Edition Charger in the Betas was much better than the street upgraded Charger now. Top speed was 143 mph, versus the current 128 mph, it had much more acceleration and a bit better grip. A video of it at Lincoln Blvd: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR...

Tier 1 cars(Charger and Scirocco). Neither of them are competitive. The Charger was faster in the betas than it is now with only a street upgrade available (no pro upgrade). Scirocco isn't fast either. Neither of them are that good for pursuits, and it's easy to get busted in the Charger because of...

Unless the new cars are faster than the current cars, I don't see many players getting the new cars. Most are out of slots, and the time it takes to recover from selling a car and buying a new car, especially when the performance of the new car is unknown, will discourage most from trying out the ne...
