digital vibe Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 On the right side there is a ramp, hit that ramp and you'll be ok. I used the ramp and still the train comes right as I take off from the ramp and BANG! I thought I had it beat if I did take the ramp but I guess not. I got passed the level, I just can't drive as fast. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangbang023 Veteran Posted November 26, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 26, 2003 lol it's tricky, it helps to have some NOS left so you can blow by it as soon as you see it start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Natan Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I don't like the AI in this game, the AI cheats. The AI smashes into the back of your car and you spin right around arrrrggggg. If you do it to them the AI just keeps on racing like nothing is happening. Also I hate the traffic, on this on drag track there is a train, at this one point the train comes out right as you are to go right by it and BANG, the car is totaled. I tried the level again and let the AI player go ahead of me and the AI player had plenty of room to spare before the train came, arrrrrgggg :angry: . But all in all I like this game its sweet that you can customize sweet cars. its a nice change from other NFS games. That's one of the good points. It makes me feel it's really trying to win, any means possible. Heck, I push their cars, so why don't they push mine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekrosoft13 Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 but in general, i'm very disapointed with NFS series and especially this ricer version :no:original NFS had true ELITE cars. top crop. something you would never be able to drive in real life..(not these stupid ford neons) original NFS had absolutly jaw dropping "car showcase". they had very detailed pictures of each car, inside and outside. very nice description of specs. and developers worked with real cars becuase each car had it's own showcase video. almost every single game after that could've as easily be done w/ raw specs and pictures. NFS1(SE) had awesome replay feature, you could playback whole race, or just highlights...something "showoff" game such as nfs:u requires! plus car crash/physics. later nfs games feel like you are driving a box of lead. NFS1(SE) had very nice realistic physics and crashes... i'm very disapointed with the direction NFS went/going.. amen worst NFS EVER!!!!!! only good, well decent car is the GOLF GTI. rest is nothing more then rice, and all this **** got started by those horrible fast and furious movies, which in fact are nothing then pure bull****.

Rage Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 I'm a really big fan of this game and I am by no means a fan of these souped up import cars as I'm a huge fan of the old american muscle cars. EA did a really great job of this game and made it farily realistic. I have to agree, though that I'm not a very big fan of the AI at times. I'd also like to have seen more North American cars in the game like the new 2004 Dodge SRT-4, or even a SVT Mustang. But overall it's a great game with a lot of depth.

Ridgeburner Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Damn... Well, personally I love the game, I like being able to customize a plethora of cars, and as for some of the comments about ****ty cars -- isnt that the point? "Underground"? Turning everyday family-type cars into speed demons? Once you unlock the level 3 part upgrades, you can create a serious bitchin car (my fav so far is the skyline GTR) with some level 3 NOS in it, you'll be flyin in no time. The music, while it is personal preference, is fine for me. I like all the music. I got a nice surround system on my computer, so the thumpin bass of mystikal or the heavy rock from static-x, either way the music adds to the experience, and like someone before me said, at least it's not instrumental techno (which is great, dont get me wrong, but it gets annoying after a while) The motion blur and light trails add to the realism, as anyone who's ever been in a ricer with some shots of NOS would know. The no replay and no inside car/dashboard views do suck, I admit, that was the very first thing I checked for when I downloaded the demo, and was disappointed. But all the good points of the game add to it's overall fun and greatness factor. The tracks, eh yeah their a bit boring at times, but Im sure in no time , someone will have a way to import/make custom tracks and/or cars to deck out, will take some work to mod all the parts and designs in, but it will be done sooner or later. My least fav part about the game, overall, is that you can't go higher than 1280x1024, and no anti-aliasing while motion blur and light trails are on :angry: wish EA would have updated the game to DX9 spec, or at least released a patch shortly after to fix that issue. But nontheless, a great game IMO. Graphics : 9/10 (some of the best graphics i've ever seen in a racing sim) Music: 8/10 (A personal preference for a lot of us, but I like it) AI: 6/10 (Yeah, it sucks, but it's good to ram one of them into the wall and laugh as you shoot by at 150mph) Controls: 10/10 (Nice and easy controls, arrows for movement, space for NOS and A/Z for shifting, nothing is too far of a reach for your fingers during play) Lasting Appeal: 8/10 (With plenty of cars, designs and other visual/performance upgrades, it's sure to keep you busy for a while at least) Overall: 8.2 (A Racing sim which i'm sure will be improved upon in later NFS games) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizkit Posted November 28, 2003 Share Posted November 28, 2003 The graphics are way nice! I love the reflections and what not! I love this game. I am playing it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
