The controls are what you'd expect, too. Right Trigger moves the car forward. Left Trigger stops the car. The thumbsticks control the car and the camera. Here are some things to keep in mind when you're going down the road: -Drafting, or slipstreaming as it's called in Need for Speed, is when you get right behind another car and use the lack of wind resistance to gain more speed. In Hot Pursuit, you don't even need to be directly behind the car. This is most noticeable near the beginning when all the cars are grouped together. Move to the side a little bit and you will still receive the benefits of slipstreaming without having to actually move around the cars in front of you. This move also builds up your nitrous bar. -In most racing games, getting bumped from behind by another car is an unwanted experience for both drivers. The lead car generally loses control/stability, while the rear car loses speed. In Need for Speed however, getting bumped is actually helpful. The lead car will almost never lose control and will instead get a small boost of speed, depending on how fast the rear car is going. So if you see a car zooming towards you in the rear view mirror, don't be afraid to move in front of him. You'll get a boost and he'll be slowed down quite a bit. -Drifting features heavily in most Need for Speed games, and Hot Pursuit is no exception. Tapping brake as you're going into a turn, then mashing on the gas as you actually turn your car will initiate the drift, which is basically just breaking the traction on the rear wheels. It's useful for sliding through tight turns, and drifting will fill up your nitrous bar. Some cars will even start drifting without having to touch the brake. The downside is that drifting can slow your car down a lot, especially if you don't do it right. The racing line generally dictates that you should enter a turn from the outside, get as close to the inside corner as possible in the middle of the turn, and then leave the turn from the outside again. Doing this will allow you to go through the corner and exit with maximum speed. Trying to follow the racing line while drifting is difficult, if not impossible in most cases. Of course, Hot Pursuit is definitely not the same kind of racing game as Forza Motorsport or Gran Turismo, so it doesn't help to over-analyze the nuances of the racing line. In the end, drifting vs. just turning really boils down to the turn, the car, and your own playing style. _______ |Nitrous| _______________________________________________________________________________ To the left of your speedometer you'll find a vertical bar. This is your nitrous gauge. Pressing and holding A while you have nitrous will give you a nifty boost. AI racers also have this ability. Nitrous is best used at the end of a drift or on dirt roads to offset the loss in speed. If you are at top speed, do not use nitrous. You can't push your car past the top speed limit. You can gain nitrous by slipstreaming, drifting, taking shortcuts, nearly missing cars, and taking down other vehicles. Racers and cops earn nitrous a little differently. Racers will acquire nitrous more slowly, but will also burn it slower. Racers can also gain nitrous by driving into the oncoming lane of traffic. Cops gain nitrous more quickly and burn it a lot faster. Cops will automatically earn nitrous as long as they're going fast. This ensures cops always have the ability to catch up to the racers. =============================================================================== Shortcuts [BAS2] =============================================================================== Shortcuts are integral to the gameplay of Hot Pursuit, especially in Time Trial type races. Knowing where all the shortcuts are on a given track will help you out immensely. If you're a racer, the shortcut will appear as a brown road on your mini-map. The road is blue if you're a cop. Most of the time the entrance will be marked by some kind of reflective sign. Shortcuts come in two flavors: -Dirt roads are by far the most common type of shortcut. There will almost always be obstacles scattered around the shortcut, and sometimes even alternate paths to take while going through it. The main drawback to dirt roads is that they cause you to lose quite a bit of speed. This is most noticeable in cars that sit lower to the ground, like those in the Hyper Series and Special Response Units. Always weigh this loss of speed with the distance covered. Also keep in mind that as a Racer, you will earn more nitrous by staying on the main road. This is because you can slipstream, nearly miss other vehicles, and drive on the oncoming side of the road. Cops, however, don't have to worry so much about this. They get nitrous just for driving fast, and they accumulate nitrous quicker, so running through a shortcut can fill the entire bar up. They also don't get nitrous for driving in the oncoming lane of traffic to begin with. -Paved roads are less common and will not reduce your speed just by driving on them. Unfortunately, most paved roads don't deviate too far from the main road, so distance saved is generally small. They have obstacles too, usually in the form of buildings and planters. =============================================================================== Equipment [BAS3] =============================================================================== _____ |Turbo| _______________________________________________________________________________ As a Racer, pressing Up on the D-Pad will activate the Turbo system. After a second, green flames will come out of the tailpipe and you'll be thrown forward at remarkable speeds for several seconds. These things can easily change the game up, especially late in a race. This is why you will generally not get many to play around with. Also, if at all possible, try to save these for straight roads. Turning is possible but difficult while you're going that fast. Try to time it just after a roadblock or a helicopter spike strip. It's pretty hard to avoid those two obstacles while using Turbo, and the cops love to have a helicopter hovering out there, just waiting for you to get close so they can drop a spike strip. ___ |EMP| _______________________________________________________________________________ AS a Racer or a Cop, pressing Left on the D-Pad will activate the EMP. It will then lock on to the closest rival vehicle in front of you, whether it be a cop, a racer, or even a helicopter. As long as you stay in range and have a clean line of sight of the vehicle, it will be hit by an EMP. The car will then sustain damage. Other effects vary, depending on where the car is on the road. If you hit a vehicle on a straight, they may incur damage, but nothing else will happen to them. Hit a vehicle while it's turning and you may cause it to do a 180 degree turn or to hit a wall. This is most useful against other racers, especially those cars that are just faster than you. Hit them with an EMP to mess up their lead. You can use this against cops if you want, but they only get in front of you to drop a spike strip or harass a racer ahead of you. You can be targeted by an enemies EMP as well. You'll see a lock-on reticule on the back of your car. Dodging them is a pain in the ass. Since it's an instant effect, you can't dodge the actual EMP. You can only break the lock-on sequence, which isn't easy to do. The best way, by far, is to simply use a Jammer. You can also try to hit the car that's targeting you with a Spike Strip, or use a Turbo to simply outrun him. If none of these are available, you'll be stuck trying to weave out of his line of sight, preferably by going through a shortcut. The game suggests braking hard if all else fails to avoid the EMP, but you should only do this if you are low on health or if the cop is right behind you. Losing too much speed can be worse than getting hit by the EMP, so if you're on a straight and can afford it, you might be better off just letting it happen. Of course, if you're a cop, then slowing down won't hurt you that much, so go ahead and let the racer that's locked onto you pass, if you have to. ______ |Jammer| _______________________________________________________________________________ As a Racer, pressing Right on the D-Pad will activate the Jammer. Cops will be unable to use any equipment for a short time, and all roadblocks will appear on your mini-map. The Jammer doesn't last terribly long. It's main use is in deflecting enemy equipment, specifically EMPs, which are really hard to avoid using other means. It's also handy against spike strips that you don't see until the last minute. A good tactic is to use the Turbo, then have your finger ready to use the Jammer when you see a helicopter in the distance. At Turbo speeds, those spike strips are hard as hell to avoid. ___________ |Spike Strip| _______________________________________________________________________________ As a Racer or a Cop, pressing Down on the D-Pad will drop out a Spike Strip behind you. It will cause any car hitting it to spin out. Think of it as a really long line of bananas from Mario Kart and you get the idea. After one hit they go away, but at level 3 you'll start tossing down two strips instead of just one. Avoiding them is pretty simple, as long as you're paying attention to the road. Use a Jammer if you have to, or try to get another car to run into it. __________________ |Helicopter Support| _______________________________________________________________________________ As a Cop, pressing Up on the D-Pad calls in a Helicopter which will fly around for a bit. Once the helicopter detects a straight part of the road, it'll hover over it and drop a spike strip down when racers get close. It's kind of hard to accurately use these things since you don't control the helicopter. Just use it when you've got the oppurtunity and hope it hits somebody. If it doesn't hit any racers, watch out, because the spike strip will still be on the road, and you might run over it yourself. _________ |Roadblock| _______________________________________________________________________________ As a Cop, pressing Right on the D-Pad will call in a Roadblock. It'll be placed just ahead of your position and marked on your mini-map. Roadblocks are kind of hard to use. You're essentially just throwing it out there and hoping for the best. Sometimes racers will just zip right through them, other times you'll damage every opponent on the track. Just be careful that you don't fall victim to your own roadblock. If you're a racer, avoiding a roadblock is generally easy. There's always a hole in the cars that you can slip through, if you can see it. You can also take a shortcut. Many times, racers ahead of you and even other cops will slam into the roadblock, causing the entire street to be filled up with wrecked cars. If you see smoke anywhere near one of these, you'll probably want to slow down, lest you slam into a wrecked car. =============================================================================== Event Types [BAS4] =============================================================================== ____________ |Racer Events| _______________________________________________________________________________ Race- This is your standard race gametype. It's usually you and 7 other cars all trying to be first across the finish line. No equipment and no cops to be found here. Duel- In this event it's just you and another racer. No equipment, no cops, nobody else. Time Trial- In this event, it's just you and the clock. Pick a car and race to the finish line. Preview- This is essentially a time trial event, except you are stuck using one car, and it's always a car in the next unlockable series. Hot Pursuit- This is basically a race. You and a varying number of drivers all trying to be the first one to cross the finish line. Except now, cops have been added to the mix. They will try everything in their power to stop you and the other drivers. If you take enough damage or if you stop completely, you will be busted and the race will end. Gauntlet- This is Hot Pursuit meets Time Trial. You are the only racer and you've got to beat the clock, but you've also got cops to deal with. __________ |Cop Events| _______________________________________________________________________________ Hot Pursuit- In this event you are the sole cop trying to take down a varying number of racers. You'll have equipment at your disposal and you will be tasked with taking down as many racers as possible before they reach the finish line. Interceptor- This is basically Hot Pursuit, with two main differences. First, there is only one racer to take down, but he's usually very fast. Second, you are racing against the clock here. There is no finish line, which means the racer can drive anywhere he wants. Rapid Response- The Cop's version of a Time Trial. There's one key difference to note: In Rapid Response, collisions will cost you time. If you hit a wall, you'll incur a two second penalty. Hit a vehicle and you'll get a three second penalty. Preview- Rapid Response with only one pre-determined vehicle from a series you haven't unlocked yet. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ++++++++++++++ ||

Paved path that runs parallel to the main road. Useful. Although it doesn't help you as far as saving distance goes, it doesn't hurt you either. Plus, the path is paved, and you can run this whole stretch without being harassed by cops and other racers. A dirt road forks off to the left at one point during the shortcut.

Paved road that runs parallel with the highway. Although no distance is saved, none is lost either, and you won't lose any speed since it's paved. It will also allow you to be free of cops for the entire stretch. At some point a dirt road will fork off of the shortcut on the right side. Ignore it. 6.3 Miles- Left side. Paved road runs parallel with main road, passes by some satellite dishes. Somewhat useful, mainly as a cop deterrent, though it isn't very long. 5.4 Miles- Right side. Dirt road with rocks on either side of the main path. Useful. 2.0 Miles- Left side. This one is tricky. This was supposed to be blocked off, I think, but for some reason it's been left open. The actual shortcut is just the small dirt strip connecting the two roads. Turn right onto the actual road and keep going. After a while you will notice another small dirt strip to your left. The other side of it is blocked off, but you can actually drive through the yellow arrows from the side you are on. Turn right and you will be back on the main highway. Unfortunately, this particular glitch is barely useful. It is a long straight paved road, and the whole time on it you will be free of cops, traffic, and other racers. However, having to make three 90 degree turns means that you will never be able to finish the race as quickly as you can if you manage to do a perfect run on the highway, which isn't as hard as it sounds. Also, an extra, albeit useless tidbit: When you're on the side road, if you keep going instead of turning left to get back onto the highway, you can actually make one big u-turn and hit the finish line from the OTHER side. 1.9 Miles- Both sides. Paved roads go under the bridge.
