[GINIX_2007]

BTW: Dont let us Loyal PC gamers down with the LAN patch.

[quote="gagtooth"]What's the drifting like SLJ because it looks pants in the videos ?[/quote]

the drifting is so hard that when u hv a turn ahead that u want to brake it is too late because when u see a turn ahead u quickly tap the brake u may either hv crash to the wall or lose control of the car.it is completely different physics from other games like carbon and underground series

[SLJ]

[quote="Trapez"]SLJ --> so all parts/vinyls are unlocked from the start? Are all cars also unlocked?
P.S. Lucky you, I still have to wait 1 week [/quote]

yes all parts are unlocked but the matter is that u do not hv enough cash to buy those parts
as for the cars they are not unlocked but some of them are u nid to race thorught the game to unlock those cars

and i just check the cars there are no porsche carrera gt

[SLJ]

[quote="Fishwhiz"]@ race invader- that is the nfs carbon legal notice. they haven't put out a prostreet one yet.

also, the prima guide only had 60 cars in it. ive heard several times that there are over 70! and mostly from ea torque at the ea forums. also theres several cars that are exclusive to the pc, 360, and ps3 versions such as the '67 corvette, the gt2, the solstice, the nsx, the tt 3.2, and z4 m coupe to name a few.[/quote]


in prostreet there are only 55 cars only in the car lot, u can see all the cars but they are locked

[SLJ]

and there are different type of races which exclude from wat we know like grip race,drag etc there are other types of races
example:grip class-race against other vehicles in the same performance class of your ride.

time attack-obtain the single best lap time out of all your competitors and you're the winner. it doesn't matter in what order you cross the finish line, only that you get the best lap.

sector shootout-the track is split into four sectors. get points for driving as fast as you can through each sector. get the highest score in a sector and get bonus points for 'owning' that sector

wheelie competition-a drag race where the highest performance cars compete for the best wheelie distance in three rounds how long can you hold your nose in the air? (this is very hard)

speed challenge-a straight speed race from point A to point B. get to the finish line first

taken from the menu book from the game box

In Carbon, the drifting races did the countersteering automatically. Does anyone know if this has changed for Pro Street? I hate the automatic countersteer

[ahmad0410]

@SLJ: Congratz for your quadruple post!

@Kurtissens: In Pro Street you have to countersteer yourself, no auto counter.

lol sounds like good drifting to me and also no auto counterlock

[t3ice]

Whats with all the bad reviews?! Maybe all the reviewers wanted some cheesy storyline and some fake-ass drama scenes.

btw only 55 cars?! Damn what happened to all the ' 70+ thing ' ?

[baumaxx1]

I did a sys req analysis to see how it will run... and it says my pc will be slowish, even though I exceed every recomended requirement apart from OS... I'm guessing it will be DX10 then... and I'll run it on high and it'll look pretty much like carbon, where I was hoping they'd improve the engine.
I woder if there's any noticable difference with DX10 on yet...

[SLJ]

hey managed to complete battle machine and unlocked react team session. as for the drifting, i suggest that u put your assist to casual because i set to king, my drift score was like 100+? because of the braking it was hard to control and when i set to casual my drift points was like about 2000+(depend on hw much u slide and the bonus points) and i used a nissan slivia to dirft fyi. and i hv some screens to share

[SLJ]

[quote="amritchail"]look what i got! I queued an hour at the ea booth for it...

an hour??? i took only half an hour

Hey SLJ, in the past games like Most Wanted and Carbon, that system requirement tool was located in the installation folder or on the game disc in a folder called "Support". The tool was called EasyInfo. If that file still exists in ProStreet, could you please upload it here so that everyone could properly check whether their PC's are able to play PS. I'm sure everyone will be grateful. Cheers

These reviews are really stupid. THIS IS A GOD DAMN RACING GAME not some RPG! WTF? Are they obsesed about story line? Where the hell is storyline in Forza motorsports or GT?? They are complaining that racing game is about racing! How f*cken stupid is that??

[Danyutz]

why do you care what they say? play the game if you like it, their opinion doesn't matter

[Trapez]

why do you care what they say? play the game if you like it, their opinion doesn't matter

Oh but their opinion DOES matter. If their notes are low less ppl will buy this game and this means that next NFS will be arcade toy cars for 8 yo kids. Maybe they'll add guns on cars.
And to think it was such a good chance to put NFS on more sim based track

thats what i'd like to know DLC? i hope! and for free too!

and the prima guide has 60 cars.

[race_invader]

didn't really try the stock bodykits because when u scuplt it some of the cars doesn't look nice so prefer to stick to aftermarket parts or even wide body kits

[race_invader]

Hmm.. Thanks for that SLZ, btw would rating would you give the car sounds? 10/10?

[SLJ]

[quote="race_invader"]Hmm.. Thanks for that SLZ, btw would rating would you give the car sounds? 10/10?[/quote]


hmm the car sounds seems to be different from carbon where different types of car like nissan 240sx and nissan 350z both hv different sound when they are tuned to max but in carbon was that when u tuned to max the sound is the same so i think i give it 10/10

[GearShifter]

does anyone have it for 360?

[Strafer]

Let see some carpics now dudes.
