- This guy tougher than razor......
things that making earl's sprint race is very difficult
1.The track
winding road making this race difficult
2.The traffic
there's "ALMOST" no traffic cars in this track
making him easy to accelerate
3.Rubberband AI
this stupid feature is the mastermind of all our
loss.
(Rubber band AI is a feature of artificial intelligence in racing games that is designed to prevent players from getting too far ahead of computer-controlled opponents.(source : internet)

Man ...u did more effort to keep him behind your bumper than winning the race🌚
hahahahahaha, you're right😅, he can overtaking me if i stay focus to winning the race
@@KewerMengakakk6262😂damn bro
Jv : 🤔🫠🫠
Bro.. that’s the only motto when you’re up against earl.. you can’t beat him if you don’t use tactics like doing whatever you can to block him from crossing you..
@@KewerMengakakk6262 The RX8 is not strong against the Blue Lancer, but the Cobalt SS is no match for it2
Earl in first race: "I sleep."
Earl in second race: "Real SHIT!!?"
fr hahahhaa
I'm stuck in the second race, no matter how hard i try, he seems to be closer
@@Okord_Obasi here's 2 things you can do
Focus blocking on the last part of the track, pay attention when the percentage reached somewhere around 70%, that's when you start the blocking game
Or
Get extra options, and disable catch up. It will turn off all AI's capabilities of rubberbanding you, even the cops
Earl is serious in last race because it's the decider who will win
@@Okord_Obasijust beat him after so many tries here are some tips :- avoid first short cut and make lead with him as much as possible.when cornering avoid drifting cause it will slower you . Specifically in last few bends also drive car with good handling like porsche . Good luck bro ❤
The funniest part about earl is he is the only blacklist member that is mentioned to be scared that you will actaully beat him so the guy is literally giving it everything he's got to win.
EXACTLY the only one who doesnt underestimate you and the hardest to defeat in my opinion
Gave it his all, he went ultra instinct
@@KieXer I didn't remember which member was a scared one but when I read the title I knew it was him, because the entire blacklist was trivial to beat, I probably haven't restarted the races over 10 times in total (excluding Earl), except the Drag races, they have a learning curve to remember which lanes to take if you don't want to not use the brake. I haven't even restarted once when I beat the top 4 members but the race against Earl was the one I needed to restart 3-4 times. He was definitely the hardest to beat.
I've always thought of Earl as the Gatekeeper of the Blacklist. If you could get past him, everyone after him felt easy.
I've recently heard that developers sometimes make their games easier on purpose after clearing a big challenge so that it feels like you acquired mastery over it. So now I wonder if Earl is designed to give you exactly that sort of feeling
True
I say the acceleration of the evo is just crazy good that makes earl so fast out of corners
Until ming that is
Except Webster
My young self never understood the importance of braking in racing games I’d just fly into walls and 250kph and wonder why the game was so hard
Every race starts with clean drive but ends with "i want to win this no matter which path i drive".
hahahahhaha😂😂
Literal
Literally every race!
But that's the fun of it... If u truly want to say that u mastered the game, then try winning without any cheats or trying to block/ram the blacklists whenever they try to rubberband ...
Even Earl only does so twice in first race, and maybe 3-4 times in second... If u just drive cleanly, u are sure to win... Just let him pass and he will slow down...
Its when u try to keep them behind at all costs that they are right on ur tail the whole time...
Us: How can you speeding up in the corner?
Earl: Yes
😅😅
Fujiwara zone lmao
It's the game combined with the track, not the enemy. The game was something, which is called a "rubberband-effect" in your language in it's standard-settings. That's the reason aswell, why you won so many races, even when you enemies were far gone for a while (and there exactly comes this effect, it can affect the CPU to drive better or worse to make races more fun). The track is long, has very very much sharp corners and hills, which is not good for most of the cars in the game. You need small, light-weighted cars with good handling. The RX-8 was an okay car for this. RX-7 would have been insanely good. The GTI would have insanely good aswell. Just two examples. It's funny, how naive and one-sighted you are, that you think, you are "the god" for getting enemies, that were 3k miles away, but if computer enemies do this, they are hard or something...
dude got EVO thats why
Cuz evo baby 💯👌🏽😔👌🏽
My anxiety when I hear his engine behind me📈📈📈
Whoever raced Earl without restarting is a hero!
I did today. Beat him after 11 years of return in my Chevrolet Cobalt SS 😅
@@blaze_02 i did it with the Lexus since this year lol. plan on beating Razor with it too
@@jahhmal i beat earl with stock punto
I did. The real deal is some random shitty speed trap race for jewels,
It's harder to beat Vic than this Earl guy in my opinion... Took him out with Vic's Toyota Supra😂
Earl taught us it doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile winning is winning
It was taught by Dominic Toretto long before MW.
Earl: you're lucky we're not in 5 races like Razor
i'm ded if there's 5 races against him💀💀
earl: oh do you brake on corners?
I remember kids asking other kids' older brothers over to finish this race
Lmao ahha i was the older brother😹
@@uvuvwevwevweossaswithglasses me too
Haha i asked and my brother refused. Took me about 25 tries at my first game. Now i can beat him on race 1, without the use of speed break.
@@biroattila21 nice
@@nsawatchlistbait289 not nice we just grew up and thats kinda sad and happy too
Plot Twist: Earl has speedbreaker too.
trueeeeee
Doesn't he smoke weed?
Maybe that's the key🤔
Kewer: calls himself "yousuck" in the game
Earl: and i took that personally "starts rubber banding"
lolllll
Top 5 Hardest blacklist races:
1. Earl’s sprint race
2. JV’s drag race
3. Jewel’s drag race
4. Baron’s drag race
5. Jewel’s sprint race
Honorable mentions:
1. Big Lou’s 2nd circuit race
Ronnie keeps crashing and one of them he starts glitching out like the Grip King on nfs pro street
JV's drag race got my palms sweating on that ps2 controller 😂
both ming races was harder than jv
drag races are awful on keyboard
Are you forgeting the 198mph speeding ticket at #1?
That shit was hard from the way it was started.
I remember playing this race back in 2012-13 maybe. At 80% of the race he suddenly starts driving like a God. Straights, corners, it did not matter to him at all, he kept driving like a maniac throughout and made me say such bad words to the monitor that it's not appropriate to put those here. Difficult race indeed.
I agree
So true lol and then we cursed our car like wtf this sh*t is so slow
I saw another video where Earl hits the stone at the 89% of the second race like he did in the video, and he rubberbanded so fast that he nearly overtook the player on the hill before the finish line
It's the game combined with the track, not the enemy. The game was something, which is called a "rubberband-effect" in your language in it's standard-settings.

Just don't be in front for all of the race and you can overtake him easy, cause he starts driving very bad at that time...
When i started carreer to unlock all boss cars Earl was the only one that won against me (only once in like 10 races because his car wasn't showing in the cards)😂 so there are 2 possibilities: 1. i'm a pro or 2. Maybe i played it with a powerful pc and there is less rubberband
5:06 finally, someone who knows how to do a late apex in long corners for better exits.
6:38 never have I felt such joy over the sound of someone hitting something!
😅😅😅
You knew it was over when Earl hit that sign but if he doesn't it's a race to the end with him on your door.
@@shaddow2022 He's a nightmare in those last few turns, might not have won if Earl didn't crash there...
Lucky sonofabich❤😂
Earl is by far the hardest boss of the blacklist in NFS MW, he is programmed to make you hone your skills, that's why there is no traffic so you can drive on the edges.
In my playthrough I disabled the rubber band effect and still he closed those gaps (even 1km gap) so fast at the last 20% of the sprint race.
#1 for me in difficulty, after him the bosses felt so easy.
one of hardest boss in nfs history
The reason why he is rubberbanding even without catch up on is because you dont have a decent top speed yet he reaches 370 kmh with ease on the long straight of the second race i even tried the race with the 100 opponents mod and some earl's reached 400 kmh because they were far behind
You can not fully disable the rubber band, it's hardcoded just like assists in prostreet
@installshieldwizard3017 it's the "catch up" settings. You can turn that off
@@valferdinandmonissabiano8641 But only in quick race
What makes Earl so difficult is that AI can handle corners much easier than players. That final stretch in the sprint race is a worst case scenario, tight corners which take away your momentum in a game where maintaining a high speed is more important than cornering, grassy edges which take away your traction and therefore your ability to accelerate out of them and the fact that off screen, the AI essentially corners perfectly with no speed loss due to rubberbanding. You can see this when you are far ahead of your opponent. You will notice their arrow suddenly change direction on corners with little to no loss in speed. We have to keep calculating what our car will do between turns, which causes us to overthink and make mistakes, whereas AI just follows the route and it is down to luck whether they hit something (like a perfectly placed statue for example)
The worst thing about rubberbanding Earl is that you think "wow I can't wait to get his car, this thing must be an absolute rocketship" and then it's just ok.
EARL WAS LISTENING TO DECADENCE IN THIS ONE
Honestly I never knew Earl was hard until I watched this video, actually the game AI made way too much effort to keep the player an all time champion in this game
It took 4 tries for me to beat him, wasnt too hard but the problem was that I was way ahead of him for the first ~85% of the sprint, then in the last few corners he gained rocket speed and overtook me
When I first played the game when I was a kid, yeah he was ridiculously hard to beat. But I played the game again as an adult and surprisingly got past him at the first try.
I believe you but who was hard for you then?
@@djdelarosa25 you probably played 1.3 version which nerfed him a lot
@@violentjingo7899 I did. I didn't know that, makes sense.
It's becuase he drives an EVO, man. Those 4G63Ts are the four banger equivalent if the 2JZ GTE.
Yeah, ill never forget Earl, every playthrough i did, he was the hardest, had to restart once or twice, what a game man, so many memories , had it on pc that didnt work so well, and then on ps2, this is a true masterpiece
this game bring back memories
The most annoying part was if you didnt get the car at the end its “welp, do over”😩
ikrrrrrr
The worst part of all!!😅
I didn't get the car, but the thought of going through hell all over again was too scary for me to retry
On Carbon, if I don't win Angie's Charger, I just buy one and upgrade it. That thing is a powerhouse
Literally the hardest blacklist racer I have faced 50x over. This guy really gave me a hard time every time I faced him and all that just to keep you from entering Rockport City. The toughest thing about Earl was that he knows how to outmaneuver you in tight corners and won't hesitate to use his ride to bump into yours.
yessss
6:40 I died while at that conner.
but with a great luck, you can defeat him on that corner :D
You can easily kill Earl by hitting that church sign, that way he won't rubberband until he gets back up again.
I just did another playthrough of this game and got to about 85% when Earl just sped up beside me and the photo finish was pure badass. Earl flying right above me at the finish line. Its a photo I had to keep
a photo to proof earl is the hardest boss in nfs history
@@KewerMengakakk6262 a photo for the rest of time my guy
yep
Post the proof here
Darius and the LMQ Concept drives very well in the first race and canyon. Usually only way to pass him is in the long round about
Bruh, I'll never forget the time Earl catched up on me from 1km distance
That dude skyrocketed even with a lot of corners, EA literally tried to make that A.I one of the hardest Boss in the game
Vic was also a difficult opponent. Much like Earl, during the sprint race, Vic would slingshot his way onto first place when you're like 85% done and because his car is generally better modified than yours there's no way you're gonna catch up to him.
yeah, i feel his first race was difficult
And then you get his Supra and it just wheelspins everywhere xdd
I think it's because Vic and earl have hold of two cities
More than razor and bull ?
@@user7fm9ed8zrazor was honestly pretty easy
6:38 That big stone was the only way 😅 now I remember
yeasss, it's the only way (fr fr)
Unfortunately this game had slingshot so it made it far more engaging as you couldn’t just lap your opponent. One reason why I love this Nfs. P.s I decided to buy carbon collectors edition, underground 2 and most wanted but there was no black edition for 360 😭
Slingshot like they will get speed boost ir get teleported behin u if u get too far??
@@aaryanpal1258it's called the rubberband effect ig... It makes the game a bit more engaging. If the opponent is far behind, they'll catch up fast and if the opponent is far ahead, they'll make them slow down. Or else the game would be a bit too easy or hard
@@allentomjose7824 ohh i get it now thank you very much bro
It makes the game bullshit is what it is. Fucking hate rubberbanding. It's literally allowing the AI to cheat, it's unrealistic and unfair
I didn’t realize how hard he was until this video. I never restarted this race I need to do another play through of this game I love it. I remember I made multiple profiles for this game lol.
It’s very sad moment when you finally manage to beat him then you get unlucky and don’t get his car
Earl, my favorite blacklister. I always take pride in taking his ride and whooping everything else with it. Probably my 2nd favorite car of NFS MW BE 2005
Without rubberband you could say; he tuned his car so illegaly, this is also exotics and muscles.
His rubberbanding is ridiculous, but it also benefits you if you are behind. Last time I beat him I just crashed and spun on purpose for the first 60-70% of the race giving him a huge lead and I still got him in the end. I think this strategy is actually easier than driving legit
Honestly.. I've had my real experience in racing with blacklist #9 myself and it took me a while to dominate and it wasn't easy; that car (Evo8) is fast as hell without any debates. Earl is literally the hardest one to defeat😅.
yeah, razor is literally nothing compared to him
Personally found Ronnie harder than him. Him, Earl and Izzie certainly make the top 3 for me
ronnie is harder imo bcs of the tracks
@@SirSkyzeIdk bout you guys, but I always WASH Ronnie in every race because to me he's super easy. Even more light work if you can gather all the junkman performance stuff which helps tremendously (people sleep on the junkman stuff and how much faster that can make your car's in game) because Ronnie always hits the first pole after the start and gets stuck there as well as he gets stuck near the big roundabout near the tunnel right around where the small bridge jumps are in the industrial area in Rockport/Camden Beach area on the 1st and 2nd race.
@@jordanprice9285 could ya gimme some info on junkman parts?
Ok I know it's not just me at the second race with Earl there are two turns where he somehow magically speeds up and it was so annoying I played most wanted a few times when I was younger Earl was the most annoying
he should be the #1, not razor hahahhaha
@@KewerMengakakk6262 agreed 👍💯
Yes I had my share in that experience 😂😂😂 it's kinda frustrating after a little while
Bro after beating the blacklist racer, the best feeling in the world is knowing that you get the pink slip to their car
fr
6:40 Earl: Ahh shit, here we go again
lol
what i've learned from this video: this guy uses speedbreaker really well
thank you man! :)
Yo because of Earl o had to stop playing for a while MW he was the hardest challenger I remember when me and my friend finally beaten him it was hype
Earl was one of the racers in NFS Underground 1
I remember I tried racing that Earl's Last Sprint challenge.
I guess it was in 2012. I have tried literally 45 times.
I even tuned my car to the high performance.
Winning that race gives excellency to the one.
He has some brutal rubberbanding, just let yourself be overtaken before the 70% completion mark and if you retake the position after the AI wont be so stupidly op in the final segment.
Earl and Ming were absolute Monsters of Blacklist
true, both is tough
Earl's car took me all the way back in the day
Basically i started again this game in 2016-17, but when It's about earl, in the 2nd race he just becomes too much tough to beat like in absloute final moment he clutches like damn...
The only way I left that Evo in the dust was with the TT quattro
And thats one of the many reasons that make old games good, they are actually challenging
Seeing EAtrax saying "boku no hero" is just unholy 💀
The trick for speedtraps is to wait a few seconds before leaving the start, that way you can focus better on getting speed, instead of crashing into other pilots and losing points. If you can get 100 km/h of advantage over another pilot, you're actually 10 seconds ahead of him.
As a kid, i didn't know about rubberbanding, AI, or any of that stuff, i just thought Earl was the Michael Jordan of drivers and his car the most amazing machine ever created. You can imagine my disappointment after unpluging and reloading my ps2 a million times to get his pink slip and finding out that the car was like B tier
This was so satisfying to watch, you drive so well & fast. Bringing back memories
ohhh, thankyou
Bro this son of a gun really pissed me off, like really thinking about it he was difficult 😂😂
One thing that I want to mention here is that the devs have made a mechanism called "Catch up" which you can't turn off in the main campaign. Sadly this is one of the reasons why every other car even the local racers too will match the potential of your current car even if you upgrade it to the max. But Golf GTI can easily beat any sports, muscle or supercar in this game if you continue to upgrade it. That car is a beast. ❤
Wow. After more than 10 yrs, refreshing childhood memories. This dude uses Slow motion at some steep curves. I had done it without slow-mo... And I was 13 then
6:27 This is the turning point of the race
I too had used an Evo 8 several times, but couldn't defeat him
The time i used Baron's Cayman i had gotten him but at the moment guy turned on his rocket 🚀💀
Then i was able to defeat him with evo 8 itself 😂
I remember when i play this Game in My Gamecube, win the golf and race to go 6 with ming.
If You want the most easy to all, win the golf and upgrade it, (he coming with turbo and that help in the start or exit in the curves)
if you guys wanat a tip on beating earls sprint... you need to increase the turbo by 1 and increase the nitrous by 2, when you get to 56% or 57% of the sprint race conveniently just as you are entering the city...
then once you exit the beach at 69% put the controles vice versa order...
btw also always reduce the breaks to nill for max speed🙂...trust me
I think this is mostly due to the lancer already being a faster car, while also being AWD and the circuits having a lot of uphill roads
I never had a problem with him usually because ive always had Baron's Porsche, so it was always a breeze. Played through that game countless times and somehow always got Baron's car.
Same because i was trying to unlock every boss's car
You gotta remember after beating Earl you are allowed into Rockport city. It doesn't matter what car you have made it at the point of this race he is always gonna be that last stepping stone to getting into Rockport. He is meant to be the hardest blacklist Racer because you really gotta race as if you lost it would end your career.
agreeddd
Once you get the pinkslip to Earl's ride you are set for the rest of the game
I always found myself restarting that race 2-3 times every time I get to him
It's also worth noting this is the last Blacklist Rival you race, that uses a Japanese car in the upcoming line up.
It's actually kinda crazy to think that in the next game the only two boss cars that are Japanese Tuners are Kenji's RX7 and the Evo IX 🤪🤭
I had the Toyota Supra fully maxed out and It still took me multiple retries to beat him literally made me want to snap the game in half.
me too, hahahhaaha
Literally me 15yrs ago
Earl the only blacklist driver who takes you seriously
Him and Vic were unusually hard. Tip 5 are easy because by then you have a pretty much complete car with even some junkman parts
05:39 at this point my man Earl starts his rubberband 😂
that's right hahahaha
@@KewerMengakakk6262hey brother which version was this the standard or black edition ?
this is black edition
@@KewerMengakakk6262 I didn't faced any difficulty in that race then am I playing in wrong version
@@yashchaudhari1776 wait. each version have their own difficulty? like they're all different
I really didn't find every blacklists too hard it's just the traffic that is terrifying, i only use 1 car when i finally unlock it, and it's the ford mustang
That's the only way to defeat Earl in that sprint race, when you make sure that he misses that last curve cut and hits the statue😂
definitely rightttt
Earl is rogs friend and he knows your potential even knowing that he can lose in a slip
Idk if beating Earl meant that the game was going to get easier from there - that only happened if you won Ming's Gallardo. What I do know is that the pursuits were gonna be hell after Earl.
Earl brake checks a lot, i needed to retry 4 times even with a fully upgraded Evo 8 (fully upgraded with parts available at that stage in the game, not ultimate parts)
Earl"s car - speed demon
rightttttt
Recuerdo que duré casi dos semanas intentando derrotarlo (era mi primera vez jugando NFSMW), y encima cuando por fin lo logré, se me fue la luz en ese preciso instante. Literalmente lloré.
Razor after recognizing his skill issues
6:41 moment of truth
personally, I find him as the 2nd hardest blacklist racer in the game and the absolute hardest is jewels, her mustang has crazy top speed
6:41 that moment Bandini's ferrari broke down and Miles said "oh my god... OH MY GOD ... BLOODY HELL"
Bro he was the only one who made me cry...
same
Here’s a tip bro. Use barrons cayman S and keep it upgraded and it’ll hammer him. I always use black list cars and upgrade them fully, they’re OP in this game with mods 😉
yeah, i'm usually using baron's cayman to beat earl, but in this video i want doing something different hahahahha
@@KewerMengakakk6262 I like that man! Can tell you’ve played for a good while from how you drive! I’m the same, have to of completed that blacklist at least 50 times now and I’m on Jewls think she has the white mustang. Need to get a 360 slim so i get an oem controller 🤣
Me casually beating Earl with upgraded ls
Screw using mods
@@josephhensley1943 not mods as in altering the game. Mods as in modifications to your car like the extra marker you get after gaining the pink slip with the first one, if you use the second marker for a performance part aka junk man part.
I honestly say that this guy is the hardest racer to defeat in the entire game. I defeated razor all races in first try and this guy came from nowhere this guy made me play for 2 hours the last sprint race of his challenge and I got fed up. The game makes the blacklist racers difficult when you have to unlock the next borough. As Rockport borough gets unlocked after earl he might be hella hard
if you beat earl you actually won the game already, lol
@@KewerMengakakk6262 yeah bruh but in the vid if he did not crash in that corner you would have to played the race again. Just saying that he might got ahead of you even tho we have reached the top speed
no cap, i might be restart hahaha, in this video i'm just lucky :)
Bro I need help
I have finished my 1st career. Then when I started a new career it too loaded with no problem but when I try to load to my old career and come back to my new career it shows that all the blacklist racers are defeated and I cannot challenge when I finish the requirements like races and bounty. I have to free roam the map and get to the challenge point to start the challenge. Like this I completed razor. And for the final pursuit I didnt get my bmw instead I played with the car with which I defeated razor. If I try to start another career it works fine again but when I try to load my another account and load back the issue repeats how do I fix it
@@AshokKumar-ru1ik wow, i want to help you but i don't know how to fix that dude, maybe you can try re installed the game
I still remember when I was a kid Vic,Earl,Kaze and Razor were my hardest racers to beat.
yeah, but ngl earl is still the hardest to beat for me ; )
@@KewerMengakakk6262 and Ronnie and Webster are goofy easy to beat
Razor for me in the drag race portion was the hardest
Kaze was too easy lmao the CLK is literally a bad car
@@ralphlorenzperolino3054The CLK isn’t bad. Kaze was just an unhinged driver. Lol.
Earl was the Hardest MF rival in the entire Blacklist. What dissappointed me the most even after beating him and getting his pink slip is that the Evo turns out to be pretty useless when the you drive it against the next higher Blacklists.
After you defeat Ronnie full upgrade lancer evo 8 then bull race & razor race you'll know what car evo 8 is
Earl behind ya goin "F L I N T L O C K W O O D"
With sheer luck i beat earl on first try today xD i remember when i was a kid i used to struggle on him a lot
That RX8 is such a beast
Your profile name is so perfect. It reflects so well our emotions during this race
Earl was and is still a God when it comes to that sprint race and one thing I've noticed is that never use speed breaker when going against him,for some reason he picks up speed when you use it
You know the points of where Earls earns rubberbanding, so this was easy
Starting from 50~70% of the second race, Earl will activate his godly BS rubberband catch up.
Razor as the final boss is "kinda" hard only because he has 5 races. But this dude is just madness.......
Yep he had the best drive algorithm for corners and all the tricky phases he was the toughest one out there not even razor was close to him just defeating him was where I quit the game in the early days which I could clear after becoming a bit more older
Earl is like the gatekeeper of Rockport City. If you beat him, Welcome to Rockport.
That moment when your car sounds tired and the opponents car is just getting started 😅
lollllll
Now imagine me, i am the type of person that doesnt use the speed breaker, so Earl is just too fkn hard to beat, his a monster, and when i failed to get hos car i tried again, luckily i got it on the next try.
But that was tought
same here but i eventually won minus the use of speedbreaker
