[HIDDEN] some races in NFSU2

[intoksicated]

i dunno if that's the case but while i was driving by... i saw this 2 races not shown in the map...

any reason to this, or are there really some hidden races?

check out the mini-map... since i'm showing a screenie might as well show-off my hydraulics...

there are a bunch of those races all over Bayview... just gotta find them.

anyways... how do you use hydrolics... it says to use H, Y, U, J, and when i hit them they don't work, do you need to do somethign speical?

one of the sms tips actually tell you that the guy who calls you actually tell you the location of these race not shown on the map

nemo, you hit those keys and hit gas, brake or turning controls.

i don't know how you guys feel using the keyboard while playing this kind of racing game... i use logitech dual action keypad and it works great... kindda like PS2 controller... u should get it it's not expensive... it's got 12 buttons and 2 analog and directional pad... all you need... no need to touch the keyboard... and driving is a breeze... plus hydraulics is really easy...

ya... it's not hidden it's just not shown on the map... i still haven't completed some stuff from stage 1 and i'm already at stage 4... crazy...

alright... gotta go find those "hidden" races of bayview

ONE TIP: for using hydraulics... it won't work when ur moving fast... try stopping first and then use hydraulics... and then move slowly... once you go fast... it goes back to normal...

Can't stand using game controllers you wanna use a game controller go by a console I'd rather rest my hands on a nice keyboard than hold up a game pad and try not to make my car hit the wall because the ergonomics of a game pad don't work well for racing games run and gun games sure, but not racing games wheels are even poor for me a keyboard will do and hey keyboards can have up to 100 buttons even more and it's got a multi directional pad as well called the arrow keys sure it doesn't have that NE NW SE SW position, but that not a big deal.

By the way whenever one of those guys calls you up saying some punk with more cash than brains has put a race up that's what these are.

freaking hard to find... u have to go street by street... is there an easy way?

[russellc]

you dont need to complete them..just complete the ones on the map that arent hard to find

[intoksicated]

really...? are those the ones that's shown in the world map... you know before you continue your career in the garage... in the menu, there's "world map" and then it shows you the completed and the not completed races... are they the same? 'coz if they're the same then i'm not gonna bother looking for them coz i can just race them from the world map...

I think the races that do not show up on the map are probably the ones you get told about by your "homies" over the car phone. You know how it goes...

Breeeeeeep! "Yo yo YO! Wassup money? I heard about some racing going on down by the [insert random map location]. Should be some easy pickings, some new racers with more bank than brains. I haven't been able to pinpoint the location but you should be able to find. Check ya later!"

[ timko ] nice sig ;)

like someone pointed out, you don't necessary have to complete those races. the easier way is to just forget about them and go back to them later via world map. okay, one thing, when you do it via world map, when you win, you don't get rep points or $$'s. BUT, there is a way around that. all you have to do is restart the race after it starts. i have always done it after i crossed the line right in the beginning, don't really know it's necessary, but not about to waste a race to find out. haha. have fun. i am still playing stage 4... man this game gets near impossible sometimes!

you beat me to it...

exactly what i was gonna say... as soon as the race starts restart the race and you'll get rep points... i just got into stage 5 after finishing all the races i missed from the world map...

Ok .. look at your map.. Goto areas under the pridge or parking lots a large spaces not the roads.. these places are where they mostly are... like in corners or in an alley..
