So, what you think of this new NFS game called The Run? My 1st impression is that the career part must be the lowest yet seen in any NFS game - it is almost non existing. But the good part is the Challenge series and the online part. It is actually fun to do these Challenge series and I think we are going to have some fun in our PBRC´s - get them started please Jussi I think the handling in this game is great - i have nothing to complaint about in that regard - other than my settings on my G25 wheel sometimes are off - as if the game resets itself once in a while - and I also lose the assignment on the buttons when this happen. I like the autolog recommendations - that way I can compare my time to his - while racing that particular challenge. However I think something is off in online play with that fortune wheel, because I just raced 2 times online and won them both, but each time i only got 1500xp for winning the combined event - but the wheel landed on 5000xp as reward each time, but I never got that much Hope to see some of you online later today - search my name it´s Grnkjr0 if you want to add me as a friend. Poul

Hi Poul!
Are you using only Wheel? If yes, can you give some tips about how to set the wheel and buttons and where? I also am not a fan off connecting a Gamepad! :S I should get the game somewhere along next few days.
Thanks!
Rogério

Rogerio have you bought The Run yet? I met my 1st cheater online tonight. Wish people would not do things like that - ruins everything. Everybody in the lobby got a DNF - he was lightning fast. I took a screen shot of his gamertag and a time he did which is impossible to do. His name is RaY-wicked_cbn Poul

It's a pretty fun game, I've been in need of a racing car game for quite a while.. Not much you can do with a G25 steering wheel but race.....
Aarog5606 and I raced last night online, I hate hearing people talk and shoot the breeze while in the lobby or racing... However with this new game "The Run" players are muted some what while the race is going on... I also was picking up a humming microphone or some thing from some one.... I don't have a head set hooked up.... so it wasn't me... beside all the chatter the game is pretty fun,,,
I just changed my steering radius from 300 degree' down too 60 degree's at it's lowest setting and the car handles even better...
on a scale 1 -10 ....I give the game a (8.5)--->"The Run" update,, just read something about a patch to be release soon to fix the problem with losing controller settings and games crashs..and a few other issue's that I don't have..

Jussi I don't recall seeing EA taking any action against any cheating for a long time now (I hope I'm wrong and I didn't see when they did), why they will care to do anything now? NFS series had/have the most cheats/hacks/exploits, then any other racing games I ever played. Spiko

Slowly getting into the game. The handling model is not to bad but the AI catchup is a bit whacked, specially the police vehicles. Poul my wheel button setup reverts to default and I have to reset every time I fire the game up plus the on off FFB is a bit lame. There sometimes but missing most of the time. I think the world model and detail are great but the car detail could have been much better. As for the filling station swap car idea!!! Well shoot the designer that came up with that idea. B

Could those of you in my friends list please make some autolog recommendations - need 23 more to beat to have the Porsche 918 unlocked. I also unlocked the Aemintake challenge, so could someone set some "slow" times and recommend? I am not even sure how and where to recommend, so could someone explain that to me too?
Thanks - Poul

Thanks - Poul Well I usually beat your times by very small values. That helps.

I have finally completed all challenge series and got Platinum in all - and also beaten 50 recommendations. Thanks to all of you who recommended - still need someone to tell me how this recommend thing works? More important; what will EA do about those cheating online? I race this morning a guy called gerryvi - who uses infinite nos. I am so sick of EA not doing anything about this. About time they use some sort of anti cheat program. Less skilled drivers might think he is a fast person, but it only took me 1 race to suspect something was going on, so I started FRAPS recording and stayed close to him. Right from the start of the race he used nos for more than 15 secs and then I got in front. At the end of the race, he again used infinite to catch up and pass me - to win the race. So be aware of this guy:

Yep I have only been online a few times but nothing has changed from before. Still the same bad sport crashers and wall riders. It seems if you win more than 3 races you will have a target on you car and get smashed to pieces in the next few races. My first 6 races I got the award for least crashes in all six but the seventh was the award for most wrecks in a race. Was fun though but I think I will bale the room after 2 race meeting next time. Oh and Poul can I go get all my fastest challenge time back now? B

I have ran into a few using infinte NOS and noticed it affected my game. NOS would last alot longer for me, i had only half the meter full but it lasted for 5 seconds or more, longer than if i had a normal race with full NOS meter. The meter would go down real slow and i was able to keep up with whoever was using it. The funny thing is i still won. Poul, i have one more platinum to get(live fee or drive hard, i think) and i have completed everything too. The career is much more fun on extreme handling!

What this means is that the cars are in Run PC version and someone made a mod to make them usable! ;P That is actually a good thing if it doesnt create problems with Autolog, because the PS3 Exclusive cars are awesome! :X Rogério
