Thanks to Hudsentech, giving you four incredible weapons to use against the cops, you can deal some serious damage on your way to the finish line.
The four weapons they fit to your car include spike strips, a jammer, a turbo and an EMP.
Now you might think that this four weapons are pretty straight forward, but how about using them to the best of your advantage? Let's see how we can do that...
As you might have realized, the cop cars are faster than you, no matter what car you drive. They WILL catch you on a straight. And this is where your spike strips come in. If you find yourself in front of a cop, wait for him to drive right up on your rear, then give him a little present. Then the moment he hits the spike strip, fire your turbo boost, but make sure you're in clear air, no helicopters or tight corners ahead. If you do this right, you'll have a considerable lead over the cop car, giving you some breathing space.
When you find yourself behind a cop car, there's two things you can do. Take a shortcut and pass him, or fire your EMP. Just watch out for spike strips from his side. If you find yourself not having any EMPs left, ram the cop until you wreck him. You need to hit him from the rear or sides, hitting him on the front end of the car, doesn't do anything.
Okay, so you're at the back of the field with police cars swarming you and the race almost over, what do you do? The simple answer lies in your turbo blast! But be clever here. nothing breaks a turbo boost like a cop or helicopter dropping a spike in front of you at the last second, so prevent them from doing it! Just before you hit your turbo, fire the jammer, leaving the cops useless and taking their ability to use spikes. The jammer will last you the same time that the turbo will last you, and do this perfectly, you'll find yourself at the front of the field again and out of the cop swarm.
When you find yourself in an EMP lock from a cop in your rearview mirror, you can either jam the EMP with your jammer, evade the EMP with your mad driving skills, or lay down a spike strip for the cop car on your six.
Last tip from my side, roadblocks...
If you see a roadblock in front of you, there are two things you can resort to. you'll see that there's a gap between two cop cars in the block. it's either on the left side or on the right side of the road. There will be a cop car on the far left and then a gap between him and the next car, just big enough for you to get through, or this could be on the right hand side. If you find yourself trapped and missing the gap, hit the brakes! If you hit a cop car at about 120 km/h, you won't end up crashing and find yourself just ramming through the roadblock.
That's all from my side! Enjoy!!
Yes, the long-awaited Need for Speed Hot Pursuit finally hit the stores in the rest of the world this weekend, and what a racing game this proves to be...
At first, my thoughts was that it would be similar to Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 that launched in 2001, and I was right!
This is by far the most proper Need For Speed that I've played in nine years' time and loving every moment of it!
As shown here, you can be the racer and fend off the red and blue while holding your position in the race by using some HudsenTech gear, including spike strips, jammers, EMPs, and my personal favorite, turbo, which limits the car out on top speed, if you manage to keep her on the road!
Or you can take the law into your own hands and work the ranks of the SCPD, a powerful police unit, determined to stop any speeders and law breakers! Driving as a cop, you also have some cool gear and equipment to use. This includes the spike strip, EMP, requesting a road block and requesting helicopter assistance, which will deliver some spike strips from above!
There's no time here for any used cars or having to buy a Mazda 3 and souping it up, this is the proper Need For Speed, complete with car profiles and absolutely amazing scenery!
Be sure to get your hands on a copy as soon as possible!!
Anyone want to answer this question for me?
Yes, we've all been waiting for this for more than 10 years, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit will come to life November 16 2010!!
Now, as you can see, we have a lot of new faces in the game, like these two guys.
On the left, dressed in cop colours, we the McLaren MP4-12C, and on the right, the brand new Porsche GT3 RS, both new additions to the series(except if you own a XBox 360 and bought the exotic racing pack, lucky you...).
The game will feature two different career modes, thus leaving it to you to compare and insure!;)
You can be a cop, which means you'll have to get yourself a pair of aviators and wear them each and every time you play the game, or you can be the racer, who says,"Screw you, officer! I like drivng my Porsche in an unfashioned manner!!". Choice is yours!
Massive graphics and open world racing will provide hours and hours of pure adrenaline filled, heart pounding, eyes glued to screen racing!! You don't want to miss this!
This won't be another Underground title or a remake of Most Wanted, this one goes old school, back to where Need for Speed's roots lie. This game WILL be the raciong game of the decade, so be sure to check out the videos and save up enough money for the launch!
Drive safely...
