Just need someone to help me get the "buddy bust" and "friendly race" achievement on nfs rivals. I'm on xbox

im at a drag race (race 42) and i can do whatever i want the AI is always like 100 meters in front of me. i can perfect shift and everything else on perfect but cant beat him even when i go back to stock tuning parts he is allways in front of me and just flyes away.

and i tought nfs Unbound was brutal whit ruberbanding
wtf how i can beat that ?

Finally having worked out how to make lockdown work for me here is my strategy. Above all - get on a bike ASAP. No looting/races. Check a few spawn sites otw to the fields here and avoid the cops, then wait for 5min till the first bike is revealed and speed over!

If you can start with a bike even better. Check for lockups otw to this location then at 5mins speed to the first spawn and enter.

Once you have your ride lose the cops and hide here till the truck comes. Hiding out here keeps the cops off you, and let's you keep an eye on the map so you are first to the bike/lockup/truck everytime

Thoughts?

I recently got a Helios Predetor Neo 16 with a 2560x1600 screen size. I tried to play underground 2 or pro street with the wide-screen fix mod and it launces but closes after a few seconds and doesn't load. Most wanted loads until the start screen then freezes. Anything that maybe I'm missing/doing wrong?

Hello, I've been trying to open and access HP for awhile and I've tried many things as getting rid of overlays, stopping start-up apps and changing it's properties to allow for it to open on things like windows 8. But no matter what I did it doesn't work I have a save file on the game for 60 hours and now every time I open the game I get a black screen. Which sends me back to the EA desktop. Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this?

Like seriously do you not have anything better to do ?

So the latest update says that fixed extracting same blacklist vehicle would keep the vehicle. So I can't have another blacklist vehicle that I obtain? Is it same for other vehicles in a lockup besides the blacklist vehicle?

Namely the top ones on my hood, they’re gone🙃

Will this be fixed in the patch and my decals come back?

It really just hit me after extracting the M3 GTR that it looked like i have allready seen it some where

I saw a Reddit post talking about a theory on how the M3 got impounded and the story of the "Player" It's made me think of a theory (that could be proven true) about the older NFS games like Underground and wanted to see what you all think

Some point in 2000-2001: Player is running in Palmont

2002-early 2003: The sting operation happens and the player flees Palmont in Darius's Supra, he then abandons the car due to it being a Hot Vehicle and arrives in Olympic City

2003: Player gets into the Olympic City Street Racing Scene (Underground 1 happens)

2004: it's been a year since The Player took down Eddie's crew and is the number 1 in the Olympic City Street Racing scene, he is then offered to join The 7 Gang but in exchange, he has to lose his number 1 spot which he declines and ends up in a hit and run incident, loosing his car and then goes to Bayview to seek revenge and destroy The 7 Gang (Underground 2 happens)

Mid 2004: The Player acquires the M3 GTR (either by Legal or Illegal means) and does it up over the course of a few months

2005: The Player travels to Rockport after hearing rumours in Bayview about the Blacklist and goes to check it out, takes them on and loses due to Razors gang tampering with his car, he is then arrested and released the same day and goes on the war path against The Blacklist and Cross (Most Wanted 2005 happens) After the events of Most Wanted, the player is marked as the Nationals Most Wanted Racer

2006: The Player returns to Palmont, his M3 gets totalled and impounded and has to start all over again (Carbon happens)

2007: The Player goes to Battle Machine to take on the kings of battle machine under the fake name "Ryan Cooper" to avoid rasing suspicion amongst security (which is also why he always wears a helmet and then Prostreet happens)

2008: The Player then gets hired to go undercover to take out a dangerous street racing gang and in exchange, his Criminal History is erased but if he refuses, he will be taken into custody for his crimes (how the FBI found the player and caught them is unknown) and the player reluctantly agrees (Undercover happens)

Late 2008 and onwards: after the events of Undercover, the players criminal history is erased for good and with the money he has accumulated over the years, decides to settle down, retiring from racing for good

Trying to get the 721 forged v6 for the '65 mustang and found out you could engine swap from other cars. i bought the GT-R Premium, which supposedly is supposed to be able to buy it, but it didn't show up as an option to be purchased. I'm rep 50 so I should've already unlocked it, though I haven't seen a forged engine ever. Were they removed or something?

Does anyone know when the vol.8 catch up will be released or is everyone else in the dark about it like me? TIA

Does anyone still play rivals to help me gain the "bust a buddy" and "win against a friend achievement" on Xbox one

So I wanted to buy myself a mustang dark horse but I can find it in the shop, I tried in every tab like manufacturer, leven and even custom cars but there is no dark horse, any one encountered anything similar?

In case someone will stumble upon this problem in the future and search for a solution: if you are having a hard time driving the truck in the Double or Nothing mission (requiring a lvl. 299 Runner car; >!the one where you are trying to steal two gold-plated cars from the Collector!<), especially whenever a killswitch cop pops up in that section killing your engine or you restart from a checkpoint and find out you can’t accelerate, you need to quit the game and disable Unite (I assume that it is enough to just disable Handling Overhaul, but I unchecked all three mods in the Story Compatible pack just in case).

My understanding is that its handling model messes with the truck’s controls, making it much heavier and difficult to accelerate. So if your engine gets killed, you’ll get busted right away, and the game restarts from the checkpoint with the truck stationary, so you won’t be able to gain any speed either. This effectively locks you out of the mission (unless you get really, really lucky and don’t get hit by the killswitch tech?).
