NFS: Underground 2 official thread.

Yeah but apart from that they are extremely impractical.

You can't drive on them because they are rock solid.

The only alternative is airbag suspension, but you can't make the car bounce with that.

They can also make your car lower than conventional springs/coil overs can. With hydraulics, you can adjust your ride height at any time, and angle the car.

...but many people still hate them...well, each one has own opinions, I think it's cool to set your ride height and give it a "strange" set...but I also think it's not so usefull in racing..

BTW.. I think I know why that Escalade was flying. Maybe you can use hydraulics when going at 200mph and then your car flies during 2seconds (this game is getting more and more weird)

lol

you can probably just do that in your garage but i would be surprised when going 380kph and doing it then

we are talking about NFS. Everything is possible! That idea came to me after seeing this and this

Belive me, Im pretty sure you will be able to jump at 360kph!

Ever changed tires on a car? When you lift it up, the wheels stay at the ground for a while (I dunno how to explain it better). Anyway, it's normal

Yeah, it's called SUSPENSION.

It goes up AND down.

Does anyone notice that in this pic and the movies the antennae is removed. Perhaps you can shave them off after you get to a certain point in the game. See here for yourself.

There's an antena in Sentra? Hehe, never noticed that!!

Post by **TheStig** » 11 Oct 2004, 05:45

yeah there is and a UGLY one... a real american style one the top side of the HOOD... europeans put them there in the middle ages... but for the american market... they still put them there...and on american cars..

a dad of a friend of mine has a NEON and it has the same stupid antenna...

why can't they put it on the roof in the middle above the rearwindow or something... and Smaller...

I dont see any hill, it is a plain terrain.

gearhead450 · Post by **gearhead450** » 11 Oct 2004, 21:36

In the Coal Harbor circuit and Sprint movies there is a Sentra and there weren't any antannaes on them. Whether or not you can take them off after installing a sound system or not is entirely up to EA to decide. Or... maybe they already have

It could easily have been a hill. You can't see a hill because it's a side shot and the hill is behind the car.

exactly skyline
maybe the hill is behind the car, but you just cant see it

the car may have just about to land

Well let me break it all down based off the many videos and pic of nfsu2 I've seen, The game overall i think was made with everyone considered, Cuz as we all see theres quite a wide range of stuff thats gonna be in nfsu2, different things for different ppl, everyone can't like teh same thing so they gotta make it so theres sumthin for every individual to like, so overall this game is still gonna rock. Now gimme my demo.

^Sparco^ · Post by **^Sparco^** » 11 Oct 2004, 23:51

In addition we all have seen the video where that Z is jumping with the hydraulics...

VPNeverLoser · Post by **VPNeverLoser** » 12 Oct 2004, 00:53

not while driving

Yeah, not while driving. People should quit saying only part truths. Seriously, I don't know why you guys are picking on the game, it's gonna be amazing. I don't see how any other NFS game or another street racing game can compare.

gearhead450 · Post by **gearhead450** » 12 Oct 2004, 02:30

I just visited Gamespot and they have a new video and screens of Brook Burke up. Visit herehttp://www.gamespot.com/ps2/driving/nee ... index.html

I'd also like to ask does anyone here have a URL link to EA directly whereas I can ask if whether or not the antannae is removable or not.

Just an unfriendly reminder that this thread is not for long winded discussions about things other than NFSU2. Although hydraulics are appearntly going to be in NFSU2 talking about it outside of the game(i.e. how they work, if you like them or not, what they look good on) it should be discussed in one of the other forums(Off-Topic or The Cars).

If there wasn't so many I would have deleted them in the first place. Don't think this is just some shiznit chat thread, I swear I can't leave this thread alone for more than a day without tons of useless posts.

well i agree, there is alota of NFS:U2 (just letting people know im on topic

) but you have to agree, there is a whole lot of crazy stuff being added ie: hummer haha. however, i totaly agree - this game will kill any other game of its type on the market - no doubt
