For the first time in history, NFS gameplay invites you to choose the role of a cop or a racer.
Select your photo and hit Y to upload it to your wall.In a new city, in completely new locations, you will fight with the best racers for the right to be called a reckless driver or a policeman. Once the event is over back out to the Autolog screen, and choose the option on the far left, "Photos". Either way, once you have taken the picture finish the event as it will award you invaluable bounty and hopefully earn you a distinction. Alternatively, whilst driving in the event, hit the start button and choose the third option which will again take you to photo mode. You can take a photo in two ways when selecting a car at the start of an event, press A to select, and on the next screen where you can read info about the car, press Y which will take you into photo mode. You will need to take a photo, or Dream shot as it is called in the game, and share it with your friends on the wall. Quite early in your career you will unlock the BMW Z4 sDrive35is. Also, you may well pick up a few of these without even trying. That way you can get them all done quickly without having to wait until an event becomes unlocked. I would suggest playing through all the events until every one is unlocked. All will be awarded by just playing through the game at some point.Ī number of achievements require you to perform specific actions in a specified car. Unless you need to replay the event to be awarded a distinction you will have plenty of chances to try again in other events.
(It will be the gold car) once the car is directly behind you, press down on your D-Pad to deploy the strip, if you get a hit, you will unlock:įor all of the above, don't panic if you don't unlock them in the event they become unlocked. During the event pass an AI Racer, once in front use your rear view mirror to see where the car is behind you. This will unlock in the "Fighting Dirty" event. The first weapon you will unlock is the spike strip. To be honest though, just playing through the game you will unlock the vast majority of these. Below I will detail the events in which each piece of equipment unlocks. Dropping the spike strip will cause the racer to spin and cause damage.Ī number of achievements in the game relate to using these and sometimes with specific vehicles. Hitting the road block yourself will cause you damage as well, so try to follow Racers paths so you can travel through unscathed.ĭOWN - Spike Strip - If you over take a racer, you can line them up using your rear view mirror. If a Racer hits it they will receive damage. RIGHT - Road Block - A number of police cars will try to block the road. LEFT - EMP - Once pressed a cross hair will appear in front of you, lock on to a Racer and it will fire an EMP burst that will cause damage. (Very annoying as quite often they will drop them in front of you, causing you to spin out. UP - Helicopter - A helicopter will fly in front of you dropping spike strips on the road. The weapons available in the cop career are: These can be triggered by pressing the relevant direction on the D-Pad. Whilst playing through the cop events trying to earn a distinction you will unlock new weapons and equipment. Once you bust the Racer you will unlock:Īgain, if you do not have any friends in the game, I will cover this achievement in the Misc section as well. This shouldn't be too hard the average time amongst my friends is 30 seconds. You will need to bust the car within 1 minute to earn a distinction. You will be tasked with destroying the AI Racer using brute force (i.e smashing into it).
At first only one event called "Chase 101" will be unlocked. Select the SCPD icon, once selected this will bring up a list of all the events available in that area. You can play both events simultaneously if you wish, but for the purpose of ease of writing the walkthrough, I am going to presume that you will be doing one at a time, starting with the Cop career. Blue SCPD icons can be selected for the Cop events, and yellow road sign icons for the Racer events. These icons indicate different event locations within the game world. At the start, the map will only show two icons. This will bring up a map of Seacrest County. Once done, press the B button to go back to the Autolog.
