I've just unlocked the highest level cars and the game is beginning to annoy me now. The races have suddenly got near impossible, even in a fully tuned Evo, and there are a few problems that really need fixing;
Traffic Spawning
I understand the need to have traffic, but the amount of times I've been going round a corner only to hit nothing, then see a car appear in the area I just hit is just a joke. This is ridiculous as it has ruined a lot of races for me. In some places there is waaaay too much traffic to avoid too, especially when travelling at top speed, sometimes causing the game to slow down.
There is also a lot of traffic spawning from behind hills so you could never ever avoid them. Yet the AI knows they will be there, so can avoid them.
Automatic gears
The automatic gears in this game are the worst I have EVER used. I normally use manual but it's too much to keep track off in a game like this so I use auto gears, but they're shocking. When you corner and keep your foot on the throttle, the car slows down but the gearbox does not change down until you let go of the throttle. This means that you can end up exiting a corner at 60mph in 5th gear! It happens all the time too, it's not just the odd occurance.
The phone calls
You mark someone on your map and are about to head towards them when you get a phonecall from some ghetto wannabe arse who WON'T SHUT UP! We don't need to know that some 'crew has been dissing me' or that 'I can't race in that little toy', I just want to see my bloody mini map! As far as I can see, the only way to remove the phone is to press Select to go to the map and then press Circle to back out of it. But even that doesn't stop them from talking blabbering crap.
Pink Slip Races
These are pointless in games. Games are meant to be fun, so where's the fun in racing someone and winning for 99% of it only to hit a badly spawned car at the end of the race and watch the AI car fly past you and win. Then you lose your car. Fun fun fun!
The AI
I have seen them make a mistake twice. I've reached almost the highest level in the game and have seen 2 mistakes. I've even rammed AI cars off the road before only to see them suddenly gain speed (without using nitrous) and catch up with me instantly.
Repairing your vehicle
Who's going to click 'No', really? Why even give you the option?
The photo album
Still won't work. Every other game is fine, only this is giving me problems.
It keeps saying that the server is unavailable.
