Need for Speed-UnderGround 2

Simply Amazing.

It is indeed just as good as the first one. I am playing on "Hard" and I cant get past one URL race. Ive done every stage 1 race I could find but this one URL is impossible! My car (Miata) has all the upgrades possible atm but it just cant keep up >_<

Edit: My car, and the race im stuck on is outlined in blue.
Edit2: Woot

I beat it finally, kinda helped by being placed iat the start of the line instead of the back

Im awaiting, how Gamespot rates it.

mine runs pretty slow..but even so, it's extremely playable and very fun. i played for at least 6 hours today (first day i got it)

check out the screenshot. kind of a close race, eh?

btw, is there a button to take screenshots? i took that one with print screen..

Slow on your rig hushy? Man, the 5600 must really suck.

Runs absolutely velvety on mine, with everything set to max @ 1024x768.

Ali · November 13th, 2004

Im having lags myself, some of'em are so worse, that I decide not to play the game for an hour or so, but what the hell. The game is so cool, that once u start, u won't move for hours.

I doubt it it does run that smooth on ur system with everything maxed cooliscool. That contrast thingy was a real fps eater even on my card

RF · November 13th, 2004

Lets see some more cars

2xAA iirc.

I have that off, I don't like the effect.. too dark on my system. That's more of a preference option. Your CPU/RAM sucks so bad it's probably holding the game back even with that videocard.

I assure you it's running perfectly with all maxed though.

Is it about the same thing as the first? If so i'm not gonna bother.

well i havent changed any "advanced" options, i just have it at 800x600. i get 15 (****loads of action going on) to 40 (light action). mostly hovers around 30. is there some option that's making it go ass slow? (i would guess a DX9 effect or something, like specular in Halo). the 5600 is not bad with games normally, and i do have it slightly OCed (370/561, from 325/500) so...

btw chris (eternal11) came over yesterday, i didnt bother to check what his FPS are though. he plays it in 800x600 though, just like every other game he plays

This game is pretty fun.. but I hate how they included lame SUVs and spinning rims.. but I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Another thing I don't like is that you have to add all of that tacky stuff just to progress in the game. In the original, I was just happy with just a few mods.. but now I guess a clown car is expected of you in order to finish the game.

Hedgedog · November 13th, 2004

heres an older pic of my car

Ali · November 14th, 2004

Im totally not impressed by the SUV's sorry.

eternal11 · November 14th, 2004
