From the mouth of morons: "- Durability & Insurance: Cars now lose durability each race and will need to be repaired. If a car reaches 0% durability, it will lose all benefits from performance parts. Durability loss can be prevented for a set period of time by purchasing Insurance from the Safehouse."
.......... Thanks EA. Because I don't spend enough fugging money in game.

There is a reason I pretty much write off anything EA has their hands in these days.

I want to make a retraction on the durability issue. The cars don't degrade as fast as your armor in 14 does. That's a plus. But they broke the police pursuits. And in NFS World, that's my career path, I engage and evade pursuits. The cops are now invincible >.>

Re: Need For Speed World Beta Patch 5.00
I almost never notice durability loss on my gear in 14, seems to be fairly gradual. Then again, I have three sets of gear to spread it out on (War/Crafting/Gathering) and don't go far above my level.

Durability loss in XIV is simply retarded for casters. My +1 wand goes from full repair 97,500 dura to 0 in less then 2 hours of grinding mobs. Given it takes me bloody 5k to get it repaired at this point I never bother. I am sorry but that is just plain over the top dura loss when I don't even hardly use the thing. All I am doing is chain healing and my wand breaks in 2 hours? Please WTF ever.

The addition of individual performance parts makes it easier with the addition of the overall rating of your vehicle. I still am pissed over the broken pursuit system though. now EA/Black Box needs to finish up by allowing individual visual body kit parts to be installed.

Re: Need For Speed World Beta Patch 5.00
Kind of a shame what they are doing with this, It was a title I had interest in.
Burnout Paradise remains my staple for this style of game for now. I just wish it had some customization in it.

Re: Need For Speed World Beta Patch 5.00
I think Burnout 3 still remains my favorite Burnout game. Tho Revenge was decent for being able to hit cars going the same direction as you.
The most wasted day of all is one in which we have not laughed.
