    Hit boxes in coburn challenge - almost impossible for me to achieve

    I AM IN THE 2ND PART OF THE COBURN MISSION... AND I CAN'T GET PAST 72 BOXES... THAT WAS MY BEST..

    I'm AT LEVEL 50... AND THEN SOME...

    I HAVE TRIED PROBABLY 50 TIMES... AND I'm STUCK..

    I HAD PROBLEMS WITH HITTING 80 IN AN EARLIER CHALLENGE... BUT GOT GOOD ADVICE ON HOW TO ACHIEVE IT... THANKS FORUM...

    I UPPED MY SPEED, USED NOX TO SHORTEN DISTANCES... TRIED BROADSIDING THE BOXES... NOTHING SEEMS TO HELP.. TRIED EM ALL. . .

    THIS TIME I CAN'T GET PAST THIS LEVEL.../MISSION

    ANY TIPS/SUGGESTIONS FOR HITTING THE 80 BOXES IN THE HILLS ABOVE LAS VEGAS - GREATLY APPRECIATED.

    I'm AN OLDER GUY - ACTUALLY A SENIOR CITIZEN... I CAN USUALLY COMPLETE ALL THE CHALLENGES... NOT THIS TIME... I'm STUMPED.

    I WISH UBISOFT WOULD ALLOW THE PLAYER TO COMPLETE THE CHALLENGE AFTER A NOMINAL NUMBER OF TRIES... SAY AFTER TRYING 50 TIMES.../60 TIMES.

    I'm THINKING THIS IS AS FAR AS I'm GONNA GET DOING THE MISSIONS.


    ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.


    GRACIAS

    This is the worst designed mission if only because it's a forced 3-parter. The first part is relatively easy so long as traffic doesn't get in the way. The second part with collecting boxes is damn near impossible. I got through it ONE TIME with less than 1 second left. It was pure luck. The third part, where you chase Coburn, cannot be done without the abilities of a Terminator robot. You have to memorize his exact path, plow through the exact right things, and pray the traffic works with you. I wouldn't mind so much if quitting any one mission didn't mean I have to redo the whole thing from the first part. It's garbage and should never have been done that way. Coop only makes the collecting boxes even more ridiculously difficult by upping the required count from 80 to 200 and they are spread further apart.

    There are some sick minds behind the mission design.

    U Guys are just doing that Mission in a Wrong Way. The Box Mission is not hard, its a pretty forward Track, and in the End its Slower and Scattered, but Still its pretty much an Ideal Line Test that u have to do. It is Not IMPOSSIBLE At all.

    If u guys want a COOP Partner to Help, add me UP in the Game and i Help YOu

    And About Coburn, u dont have to Hit him, just drive with him to The Airport and u Win.... NO need to hit him

    Can't get past the Burn Coburn mission

    Well, my story is pretty normal. I'm a casual gamer, not an avid one, nor a competitive gamer. I just like to buy a game and enjoy playing it, win the game and then do some other stuff if there is something more to do.
    Right now I'm stuck at the Burn Coburn mission, the crates part.
    Honestly, I believe this is the worst mission ever here, and not just this one but all the Crates missions that were previous to this. I'm really frustrated about this because it's the fourth day of me trying to get past it and all I managed was to touch 77 crates at most, and that only ONE single time. I really don't think there is a strategy to get past this type of mission because if you are going too slow, you won't get in time to all the crates, and if you are going to fast, your car will spun out or slide out of control.

    I'm frustrated about this because I'm really tired of wrecking my nerves and trying to beat the game.

    I tried to find people to play with me, but every single one of them quit on me after the first part of the mission where you have to race to the crates.
    I'm also tired to hear/read from people who say "you need more practice" and "you just have to get someone to help you with that".
    Well, nobody wants to help and the practice isn't going well.
    I thought that games were made for fun.
    I'm disappointed that there is no difficulty level selector so you can go past a mission without having to trouble yourself with it.
    I would really appreciate if the dev team would add this level selector so that me and other players who are annoyed of replaying a mission be able to get past it quickly.

    --------------------------

    Now, because there is no way for me to move forward into the story, I started playing the Faction races. And there I found the cheating AI that simply can't be beaten even if you were Flash, running faster than everything ever. Today I tried the "Coast to coast" mission and:

    1. The AI cars are quite smart. After having an accident, a few of them managed to respawn 300 meters in front of me and continue the run.

    2. If I happen to have an accident, I am respawned 200-300 meters before the place of the accident.

    3. While racing through Miami (at the finishing part of the mission, and after an hour of road), I managed to get in front of the pack by more than 10 seconds. I was running at full speed (from 250 to 300 kmh).
    The pack managed to get behind me in less than 15 seconds and overtake me.

    My car is tuned to the max level: 1283. And the car that always gave me troubles was level 1260. The cars with level 1274 were at the end of the pack. I really can't understand the laws of physics this game is using.
    I know it's an arcade, but overtaking me in less than 15 seconds, when I'm cruising at 270 kmh, and they're 10 seconds behind me, it's kind of a disappointment.

    I mean those cars have to drive really careful and at impossible speeds to catch up so quickly while taking care of street corners and 90 degrees turns.

    4. When colliding with traffic everything is weird. You can hit a bus at full speed and it only slows you down a bit, and you can nudge a car at full speed and it sends you tumbling through the air like a space rocket.

    5. The AI cars are pretty powerful. I'm running at 250 kmh and a Dodge Viper "walks" by me hitting every single pole in the middle of the road, not stopping a single bit. If I am the one to hit the poles, I'm going to be slowed down. The same story is with the fences on the side of the road, you nudge them a bit and they're slowing you down like crazy. If the AI cars do the same, nothing happens. Also, the AI Circuit Spec cars are way too speedy on dirt.

    ----------------

    So really what bothers me is that the game isn't challenging. It is actually impossible to play and enjoy without rage quitting.

    ----------------

    I don't even know how to feel about this. I feel cheated, tricked into buying a game that is thought to bring enjoyment and fun, but all I get is a session of disappointment.
