Pro Street: Most Glitch Filled Game Ever???

sleekism · 17-01-2008, 01:03 PM

I am really annoyed with all the glitches that keep happening with my NFS Pro Street game.

1)Manual Mode is stuck on!! I drive an automatic in grip racing and I can't turn manual mode off. It says in the options that I am not on Automatic but it's not working!

2)Something wrong with old muscle cars on the strip!! As soon as you change into 4th it bogs down and actually decreases in speed! So I have a choice of bouncing the limiter in third or slowing down in fourth!

3)My Shelby GT500 is slow!! On the strip it did a quarter in 40 seconds!! It has trouble revving and getting past 60. It is completely stock and untuned. My Cobalt works but not the Shelby??

4)Engine sound not working?? It works when your revving up at the start line and then it just disappears!!

My mate has a Playstation 3 and has suffered the exact same problems. WTF is going on??

Grechie · 17-01-2008, 01:09 PM

I too have noticed these on my mates 360...

Josh_XC · 17-01-2008, 01:18 PM

Yeh mate i also have some of these problems. The Shelby GT500 is extremely slow!!! which ****ed me off.

I dont have a problem with manual mode as you do but i have it in manual anyway.

All the other problems you listed I have also. The one reason i bought this was i wanted to take some muscle cars done the strip, but i also found that once u hit 4th gear it will bog down.

There are some major problems with this game.

Man that sucks that was looking like the next game I was going to buy.

Fev · 17-01-2008, 01:50 PM

ive got it on PS2.
glad i didnt buy the GT500 now.. my lambo goes like stink though.. top speed of 415kms

lol it has literally lifted off the ground on very slight crests and sent me straight off into cliffs hehe(i got from 25 to 4 total repair markers last night trying to do speed races in it :P
i have a pagani but i havnt finished doin it up.. but i set that as grip cuz my evoX sucks balls.. weird thing is its got stage 3 forced induc and drivetrain but it says it does 4.1sec to 100 when the real car does it in like 3.5 secs stock.. wtf

ive had the problem my drag car Dodge charger R/t, change into fourth and some how the car bouches off the groud lol like from a wheelie the front comes down when the gear changes and the rear end bounces.. i still end up doing 8.30's so not too big of a problem.. fastest ive done was a 7.03 but ive never come close to that again :(

i love my charger

oh and my lambo and my AE86... hehe

anyone have the Ae86? i cant get more then 156hp out of the damn thing!! ive got stage 3 everything, stage 4 brakes(not that they help power) and ive only got 156hp lol.. i still own in drifting but i need more power from the thing

I reckon the previous Need For Speed Carbon is a much better game. It seems the rice crowd got a hold on the new game and somehow the Muscle Cars have gotten slower and the Ricers are now unbelievably quick.

Graphics are odd too kind of cartoony.Carbon looked better and the V8's on Carbon sounded awesome. I used to turn the volume right up on Carbon and just listen to the old Shelby idling away.

Forza2 is a good driving game as well

Fev · 17-01-2008, 03:02 PM

yeah butnot as much fast fun on forza then the NFS games.. i liked carbon better too.. i like free driving and runnin from the cops, and crashing into the cops, and making cops crash into other people.... and such

What the fastest quarter mile times you have done on pro street?

Xitdxr · 17-01-2008, 03:10 PM

I dont have any of the glitches and i have finished the game. the GT500 is just slow, its not a fast car in the game for whatever reason. fastest 1/4 mile i have done is with the 350Z 6.99sec, the 1/2 mile same car 10.56sec. I do use manual though, i wonder if its cause your using auto that your having these glitches.

I hate carbon, was an absolute waste of time, the best release is Most Wanted without a doubt.

I highly doubt that a stock Shelby GT500 can only do the quarter in 40 seconds, has a top speed of 80kays and revs up to only 4000rpm.

I kinda really doubt that.

Fev · 17-01-2008, 03:22 PM

lol 6.99 in a 350z!! crazy.. i really need to fix up my gear ratios on the charger but i just cant get them right

Allen · 17-01-2008, 03:37 PM

I had this POS game for less than a week before I returned it for a full refund... Needless to say I will not be bothering with any of the Need For Speed games again... Gran Turismo FTW

Fev · 17-01-2008, 05:01 PM

the driving simulators are never as fun though.. sure they last a hell of alot long, are more detailed, real racing tracks etc they just dont have that fast actionie fun that NFS does.. atleast they have introduced tuning abilities into it

But all NFS Pro Street is, is a lame driving simulator.

What set Need For Speed apart was the street racing and cop chases.

Now as a "legit" game it just comes off as a second rate driving simulator nowhere near as good as Forza 2 in graphics, tuning or anything. The tuning in Pro Street is sheiBe. I like Forza where they tell you WHAT the mods are and it actually makes a felt difference.

Need For Speed from Hot Pursuit 2 to Carbon was awesome. WTF happened?

Fev · 17-01-2008, 05:20 PM

thats true.. i think the conservatives and poloticians got to the creators against "street racing" and avoiding cops and all that.. you just like they got to Carmageddon when it came out(although that got banned.. mad game though lol)

Agent86 · 17-01-2008, 05:27 PM

bugger that.
I still think testdrive unlimited is the go...

twin turbo saleen

Fev · 17-01-2008, 05:31 PM

have not played that actually, i used to play test drive back on Ps1 though lol

vandrsxr6 · 17-01-2008, 05:31 PM

I've got a GT500 but it's been modded and it runs 7.9 Quarters. WIll some mods and the right tune these things are awesome.

The biggest problem I found is in the High speed points races. On minute your going around a big bend about 500m before the overhead and then BAM!!!. For some stupid reason the car gears up and you loose about 100klmh.

BULLSHIT, I got sick of it a bought TIMESHIFT, that game is crazy.

Fev · 17-01-2008, 05:37 PM

vandr, you sure you geared whatever you were using for speed races righT? ive never had that problem.. my usual problem in those races is hitting telegraph poles at 390kms... or getting airborn, landing awkwardly and spearing off the side of the bridge in the desert.. i wish there were replays, some things ive done in that game ive just wanted to watch again and again but you cant :(

sfr rob · 17-01-2008, 05:40 PM

xbox 360 sucks the foot long, i had 5 games with mine, 2 different consoles and every game but call of duty had major issues. forza was by far the worst with the track vanishing as your playing, or freezing up the system. I just bought a PS3 cant wait to get that new racing game GT5, it looks great, but so did NFS Pro Street.

Oxa384 · 17-01-2008, 05:46 PM

my (ps3) game keeps freezing after you finish a race then the only way to fix it is to quit the game then restart it its really ****ing me off!!! :evil3:

yeah for sure,, test drive rocks it...

lukey · 17-01-2008, 05:49 PM

Pro Street has the worst menu ever...

sleekism · 18-01-2008, 08:30 AM

Not to mention I think the announcer is in love with "cooper"

One time he said "You know who is looking hot?, COOPER"

I'm gettin a lot of gay vibes from that game,,,,,,,,,

Fev · 18-01-2008, 09:38 AM

i hate that announcer although somtimes he is pretty funny.. and that Ryo , im sure he isnt that much of a duck in real life..

prostreet has the worst menu out of any car game ive played. you cant change the camera angle while your doing autosculpt.. 80% of the time you cant even see what your doing! but i still like the driving side of it

XR6_661 · 18-01-2008, 10:13 AM

The whole game sucks really...

No replay value at all. I just like doing up the cars.

Ralliart · 18-01-2008, 11:15 AM

why did u make a thread of this i already had a thread on this

look here

Wow, have any of you contacted the developer and asked why? I'm sure there will be an update but that's pathetic.

Goes to prove that the only good need for speeds were 1 and 3. With 1 being the best ever.

This game is made by EA, don't be suprised. The last GOOD NFS Game they made was HP2. Thats before the game lost all focus, it was better when it was jump in a super car and get away from the cops rather than what it is now. Don't worry though because knowing EA there will be another need for speed game on the shelf in the next 5 minutes.

XR06T · 18-01-2008, 01:06 PM

anyone played juiced2?

i dont actually mind it, pretty fun! doesn't try to be too much of a sim so it makes a nice change from forza.
