All upgrades:
After completing the game, start a new file. Load the new file after the introduction sequence. Save the game. Without shutting down the game, load the file that you won the game with and go into the car selection screen. Select a car as usual, then save the game. Again, without shutting down the game, load the new file. All Performance, Visual and Parts upgrades will be unlocked in that game. All the Blacklist racers in the new file will have the stamp across them that reads "Defeated". You can still race them and get through the game normally, but you must drive to the Blacklist challenge location to race Sonny, Taz, Vic, etc. You can no longer initiate the blacklist races from the menu.
Hint: Blacklist milestones:
Blacklist milestones are things you need to do to rack up your bounty so you can challenge the next person on the Blacklist. Check out these so you know what you need to do to rack up the points. Once the milestones are completed, you must work on racking up the points. The best way to do this is to cause as much major damage as possible by taking out police cars, traffic, and crashing through shops (for example the donut shop and others you will notice in the later levels). Try to rack up as much bounty and escape before your status has reached level 4. If your status is already level 4, then choose a different car for awhile until the status goes down before returning to your favorite car. Once your status hits level 4, it is harder to get into cool down mode to find somewhere to hide. Avoid getting caught, as you will lose the bounty you have racked up during the chase.
If you are having difficulty achieving some milestones, start a milestone event and go to the docks. Race around in that area by the boat, and if you are fast enough, the cops cannot touch you, no matter what level of police attention you have. Also, they will not make roadblocks or lay down spike strips. This makes it very easy to draw out a pursuit or completely evade them at any time. Just stay in that area, and if you want to lose them, make some tight turns and go down behind the boat to a covered tunnel. If you are fast enough, they will completely lose you and you can sit there until the Cooldown bar is full.
When you are on lower heat levels, try to get as much bounty as possible. This will make it easier when you need to get over 1 million bounty to challenge the black list rival.
An easy way to get milestones is to go to the Rosewood outer ring road, otherwise known as Highway 99. Drive around there until you get the milestones you need. To lose the cops, turn into the stadium. Hit the sign too get rid of all of your pursuers. Then, hide in the hiding zone until your cooldown fills.
Make sure you can reach Pursuit level 4 or higher, then pick your fastest car. Start a pursuit with your car in manual. Keep it in first gear so it reaches about 40 to 80 mph. The cops will not know what to do. They will just follow you around aimlessly. This an easy way to get milestones.
Hint: Razor's races:
Once you reach Razor in the Blacklist (the very last person),
you must do five races. On the circuit, take as many shortcuts as you can to
win. If you do not do this, he will win by a minute. Also, it is recommended
that you have the best parts in your car (Junkman). Once you win those five
races, you will get your BMW back. However, in order to keep it you must evade
a very long pursuit. You will start with a wanted level of 6. You will have
large SUVs, very fast black C5s, and even helicopters after you. Once you start
the pursuit, swerve off to the left to hit the bridge-like object, and get most
of the cops off your tail. After hitting that, keep to the right. You will go
through a construction site. Keep to the right to hit yet another bridge-like
object, and lose most of your pursuers. Ahead you will soon see a gas station.
Try to hit the gas tanks. Keep hitting things until about five minutes into the
pursuit. Then, Mia will call and tell you where to go. Get there as fast as
possible.
When you defeat Razor Callahan at the very end of the game,
Cross will call in every unit of police. There will be a total of thirty,
including SUVs, Corvette C6s, Cross, and the Rockport helicopter. When it
begins, it will be Condition 6. Keep to the right and hit a store awning to
lose most of your pursuers. Then, go straight, keeping to the right. Make a
hard right into the construction site. Hit the object under repair to lose more
pursuers. Do not crash, or they will bust you. Continue straight and hit the
gas station. You may have about at least eighteen cops on you now. After five
minutes, Mia will call and put a marker on your map. Go there, avoiding any
blocks or spike strips. The best way to avoid them is by going to the side
where there are no cops blocking you. If both sides are blocked, hit a car's
rear, which is the weak point. Other cops will then crash into the blocks, some
getting immobilized. When you reach the spot, it is what used to be a blocked
off road. Go in as fast as you can and a short intermission sequence will show
that you are Need For Speed's Most Wanted.
Hint: Challenge series:
After completing career mode there will still be some cars
that are locked. In order to unlock them you must go to the main menu and
select the "Challenge Series" option. After winning all the
challenges, those cars will be unlocked. Note: At first there will be two or
three challenges unlocked from 69 challenge. In order to access the locked
challenges you must win the available challenges.
Hint: Better times:
On Heritage and Omega, to get through the curves do no use
the shortcuts. It will only slow you down. Just take the turns and it will save
you some time. It can help you build up some speed for the rest of the track.
Hint: Quick start:
Pay close attention to your tachometer when launching from
the start line. Grab a perfect launch to gain a few precious seconds. When the
needle turns blue drop the clutch and hold on.
If you are using a two wheel drive vehicle, starting out can
be difficult because of your burnout. To get off the line faster, just as you
start press [Nitrous] until you are no longer burning out. Your tires will gain
traction and get going a lot faster.
Hint: Nitrous and grip:
Hitting nitrous torques the chassis back, giving the rear
tires immensely more weight under the new acceleration. The end effect is that
you will go straight. If you find your tail sliding out or are about to spin
out of control, hit your nitrous. You will be surprised at how fast you will
get straight again. This is a great trick in combination with Speedbreaker.
With the correct timing, there is no corner you cannot take at any speed.
Hint: Nitrous boosting:
It is critical when you get past Blacklist Member #6 to use
your nitrous wisely and strategically. Instead of just holding [Nitrous] in
desperation to get ahead, press and release it when the tachometer is about to
shift to the next gear. Upon the next gear shift, continue pressing [Nitrous]
until the next upcoming gear shift. This is the way precious milliseconds are
spared.
Hint: Longer lasting nitrous:
When you are racing and want to use boost or nitrous, press
it as fast as you can to have more or have it last longer.
Hint: Timebreaker:
The Timebreaker can be used to improve handling at difficult
turns. It can also be used to blast cars from a roadblock. The Timebreaker adds
mass to the vehicle, thus blasting cop cars easier. Hit cop cars like this, and
if you are lucky you can send them spinning in the air; often hitting the level
boundary in the sky.
Hint: Pursuit Breakers:
If you are driving toward a Pursuit Breaker and there is a
spike strip immediately after it, do not hit the Pursuit Breaker. During the
intermission sequence, the CPU will take control of your car and will drive
through the spike strip, ending the pursuit.
Hint: Sharp turns:
When there is a sharp turn coming up, use your Speed Breaker
when you are a little farther away from the turn. Turn your wheel to the
direction that you are turning, then turn your wheel to the opposite side. Try
to use Speed Breaker only half of while you are taking the turn. If you use it
for the entire turn, you will likely turn around. Once you have turned, quickly
use nitrous. If done correctly, you will turn three times faster than the CPU
cars.
Hint: Easy money:
If you are low on cash, just defeat one of the opponents on
the black-list. You will get two marks to use on several different things. Do
not use them on the Uniques early in the game. Instead, use them on the middle
or the left "Random" choices. They should always come out to either
be a big cash bonus or the opponent's pink slip.
Because you can repeat Blacklist races you have completed
and still earn money for it, do any of Kaze's tollbooth races. You will get
$10,000 for winning. By this point in the game you should have hopefully
obtained the Porsche Cayenne from Baron. If not, your fastest car should do
fine.
When you get to about the tenth Blacklist racer, go to your
Blacklist screen. You can move to racers you have already defeated. You can now
race any event you have not raced yet or race the ones you have defeated again.
Race the same easy race repeatedly. For example, if you are
on Ming or past Ming, go back to him and race the first sprint on the race list
repeatedly. It is worth $12,000 each time you win it, and is very easy if your
car is fast.
yroe, fy.
If you have defeated Razor or are trying to defeat him, just
chose the Speed Trap race that is 4.8 miles long. You can do it as much as
desired and can get $25,000 in one race.
Hint: Getting the most money from selling your car:
When in your safe house and you sell a car, you will only
get half of its list value. However, there is a loophole that works well for
pink slips that you have won and no longer want. Take your car to the shop. Go
to the parts area. Go into the body kit, spoiler, hood, rims, and roof air
areas and set everything to stock. When you check out, you will see anywhere
from $1,000 to $18,000, depending on what pink slip car you are stripping. Do
not try this with performance parts. The shop charges you money for
downgrading. Once you have stripped your car of all accessories, leave. Then,
go to your safe house. Sell the car, and you will have made a lot of money on
the side. Do this every time you intend to sell any car.
Hint: Easy wins:
Pay attention to the destructible objects such as the donut
stands, movie screens, or anything else that you can use to distract or total a
cop. During a race, you can hit those objects and they will they fall and
scatter all over the ground. This causes all the other racers behind you to
crash or slow down, giving you more breathing room and make it easier to win
the race. It works better if they are not on your rear end.
Use a car that is low powered, such as a Cobalt or Golf, and
only use nitrous power-ups. Do the races as they come. You will see that the
CPU cars are only as tuned as your car, making it easier to win.
When on a race and are desperate to be first, use
Speedbreaker until the meter goes halfway. Nothing may happen at first, but you
will learn that Speedbreaker makes the CPU cars go slower, thus making you
advance.
Hint: Easy bounty:
Get some cops after you then go to the bus stop. Go on top
of the buses. Make sure that the front of the car is at the edge of the last
bus so that the cops can see you and do not lose you. Keep looking behind you
because the cops will sometimes find a way on top of the buses. When they do
that, just reverse as soon as you see them coming and push them off. Only one
cop car will come on top of the bus. Do this for as long as desired. When you
want to lose them, just reverse, park in the middle of the buses, and wait
until your cool down bar fills. The cops will also drive crazy and crash into
themselves, giving you extra bounty and bring up your rap sheet rankings on
police vehicles immobilized and police vehicles involved.
When you get to third place on the Blacklist, more Bounty is
required before you challenge the next racer. The best strategy is to go to
number 11 on the Bounty selection screen. Build up your Bounty by knocking into
the side of police cars. Do not go too fast and keep "lightly"
hitting into the sides of the cops until you reach level 3 or level 4 heat.
Notice how quickly your bounty points mount up and milestones should be
unlocked faster by taking your time. If roadblocks appear, use your nitrous and
blast through the cops. Afterward, slow down and keep "lightly"
hitting into the sides of the cop cars. Accumulating bounty points becomes
easier using this method.
Get into a chase with the police and drive towards the bus
station. Instead of sitting on top of the buses, go straight up the ramp on the
right and drive towards the end. The police will not be able to reach you there
and you will begin to rack up a large bounty. When you need to lose them, go
backwards and forwards a few times. They will slowly begin to leave. Once there
are only one or two police cars remaining, reverse into the station just out of
sight and wait for evasion bar to reach the maximum. Then, drive away with as
much bounty as desired. Also, do not worry about looking behind you, as the
police will not go up there if you are at the very end.
In any car in free roam mode, you will notice a lot of huge
eighteen wheelers about. These are a great opportunity to earn lots of bounty
points. When you speed under these correctly in a chase, they will stop. Any
cops chasing you will smash into them and explode. This is a great method, but
requires a lot of practice.
During a pursuit, access the map. Close to the middle of the
map (if you have all the regions unlocked), there is a space that is very big
with A Pursuit Breaker above it. This is the bus station. Set your GPS for that
Pursuit Breaker. When entering the station, if you are facing the ramps, take
the one on the right and go all the way down. The cops will not come up the
ramp with you. When your bounty reaches the desired amount, back up, but do not
fall off. Use your nitrous and drive towards the gas station on your right.
From there, turn right and hit the doughnut shop, and later the water tower.
There is a very small chance all the cops will survive all three Pursuit
Breakers.
Go to the bus station. Go through the glass, and driv eup to
the ramp to the left or the right. When you go up the ramp on the left, there
will be buses lined up. Stay as close as you can to the end of the buses. You
can do this on both sides. If you are notified that you have evaded the police,
off the buses then go back on them. They will not go on the buses.
To gain bounty without getting heat, get into as many
pursuits as possible before defeating Blacklist Rival #13. Your heat level will
not go above heat level 2.
Use the following trick to get an easy $100,000 bounty.
Activate the Blacklist menu. Then, go to the bounty challenges. The first one
should be at the police station. When you start it, there should a squad car
directly in front of you. Hit it head on then hit the radio tower after the
car. You will then be on the main road. Go to the safe house that is down the
street. You will get $10,000 bounty. Do this ten times. Note: You need
condition 4 to do this. Do not be surprised if you cannot get in the safe
house.
Use the following trick for easy bounty and milestones.
First, go to the "Bounty" icon, then go to the police station. From
there, go straight then turn right. Keep going straight until you pass the gas
station, then turn right into the bus station. Swerve to the left until you are
in line with the ramp behind you. Start backing up using your rearview mirror
as a guide. You will smash through the glass and continue to drive backwards
along a cemented rooftop. Back up all the way to the end and just wait it out.
The cops will smash their cars to bits and even become disabled, which will add
to you property damage. The more you wait, the more cop cars will get smashed,
and the more time you spend up there, the more your bounty will go up. This
will also increase your milestones.
Take one car from your garage that you are not using. Heat
it to at least to the level 3. Go the bus station. Make sure to have one police
car in front of you, because they will stop and block you to the corner. Also
try to avoid big cruiser cars like jeeps. Although they do give you a lot of
bounty, if you lose control of your car you will get busted. When you get to
the bus station get on top of the buses. Go to the corner and turn around
facing the windows. You can stay there as long as desired, but watch out for
the cops to get on the top of the buses. If that happens, push them off by
using your nitrous. If you stay there until level 4 or 5, be very careful. The
cops will try to push you off. Also watch out for two cop car on the top of the
buses. Simply hit reverse and jump off the buses then quickly go around on the
top. After awhile you will get over 500,000 bounty. You can do that as many
times as desired.
To get good bounty get your car's heat to level 3 or higher.
Stay close to the Pursuit Breakers to lose the cops faster. Get your bounty to
around $200,000 and lose the cops as quickly as possible. Do not go to the bus
station.
Go to the board walk. At one end is a water tower. When the
chopper is over you, hit the water tower. The chopper will crash and you will
receive 40,000 in bounty.
Get to a five heat wanted level, then go onto the Rockport
Freeway with the police in pursuit. Keep going around in a circuit on the
freeway until you have completed all your milestones and have the desired
amount of bounty. Then try to get all the police off you by hitting as many
Pursuit Breakers as possible. Once that is done, go to a hiding place. If done
correctly you can earn a large amount of bounty.
When you first start the game (after the introduction where
you lose the car), it is impossible to get over two levels of heat. You can use
this to your advantage, because you can go on the buses and there will not be
any helicopters or SUVs. Also, the cars are dumber and almost never come up on
the top where you are. To complete the game easily keep doing this until you
have over 10 million bounty (the requirement amount to challenge Razor). Note:
Do this as soon as possible, because after you defeat a certain number of
Blacklist members you can get the maximum heat and this trick will no longer
work.
Use the following trick to get bounty without the risk of
being busted. If you have police after you and cannot get away from them, drive
to the bus station. Drive up the ramp and on top of the buses. If they were far
enough away from you when you reached the buses they will not come after you.
You can sit on top of the buses for as long as desired and still get bounty for
the pursuit duration. Note: Sometimes the police will drive on the buses; in
that case be ready to drive off the buses and away to safety.
In the later levels, you may find it harder to evade the
police using the second story of the bus station. Under level 3 and 4 Heat, the
police can and will chase you to the second floor making evading a bit harder.
The easiest way to avoid capture by the police under these Heat levels is to
lead the pack to the amphitheater. On your map, it will be a small circular
opening among the roads. Drive in a circle around the covered stage until the
cops are a bit behind you. Then, make your way to the stage via one of the
convenient ramps on either side. The police will not follow you and will
eventually retreat. The helicopter will hover above for the duration of the
pursuit and will eventually give up. If you need more bounty after the police
have left, go round up some others and repeat the tactic.
Hint: Easy upgrades:
Before you can do anything, you must win the Burger King
Challenge. When you win it, you will unlock all unique parts (also called
Junkman parts). Get any car and put all the parts except performance. Once you
have your car the way you desire, go to the performance shop. Max out your car.
Then, put the Junkman parts on. Max out your car again. Then put on the Junkman
parts again. Your car should be fully upgraded.
Hint: Junkman parts:
If you try to put Junkman parts on you car in career mode,
it will not work. You can only do this at the main menu.
When you can race Taz, try him. Lose or win, you probably
will get the Junkman engine upgrade in performance.
Hint: Avoid police:
Upon reaching level 4 (Most Wanted) there will be an
overwhelming amount of police officers coming after you. At this level, cops
are excellent at boxing you in. If you cannot move forward, use reverse for two
seconds to get away from the block. Spin your car around and get out of there.
The best way to escape the cops is to evade long enough to
get into cool down mode, than find a hiding spot. By sticking to the cities you
will find lots of cool down spots to sit and hide your car until the heat is
off. This is also a good way to avoid helicopters which appear if your reach
level 4 on your map. Another good method is to run into the triangles on your
map, which mark places where you can ram into shops and other roadside items to
disable the cops. Highways are good places to get blockades and strike strips
which are challenges for milestones.
For an easy way to get away from cops at high wanted levels,
find the baseball field. Look on the map for a small triangle towards the top
left. Use highways in a circle around the field to achieve your missions. Once
you have gained enough bounty, city damage, roadblocks, etc., drive through an
entrance to the baseball field, hitting the pursuit breaker on the way in. Make
sure that you slow down some before hitting the breaker so that it does not
send you through the other side of the field. Once you make it in the field,
stay there and wait out the cool down period. The cops should be off of you,
and cannot find you. This works almost all the time to get rid of the cops.
Just driving through random blockers rarely works when you are at wanted levels
4 and 5.
Never respawn your car in a pursuit, as the police will
always catch you.
Once you complete Razor's (Blacklist #1) five challenge
races, an intermission sequence featuring you, Mia, Razor, and the other
Blacklist members will start. Once you get your car back (BMW M3 GTR), you will
go to a heat level 6. Every cop in all cities will try to bust you. You must
evade them for five minutes, then you will get a call for Mia. Try getting to
the golf course. There is a little building that you can crash into to get rid
of the cops. Then, try to wait it out until you get Mia's call. An icon will
then appear on your map. Quickly get there as soon as possible. Get to the
spot, jump the bridge, and you will be home free.
When heading for a roadblock, make sure to hit the trunk of
a car instead of when the engine is located.
When at level 6, cops and feds are everywhere. There is a
blind spot where the cops cannot get you at the bus terminal. Normally you
would go left or right to take the jump or drive up the middle to take the
shortcut. Instead of using the ramps to jump, stop at the apex of the ramp,
then turn and drive in the middle of the walkway. Stop there and wait. The cops
will not come up the ramp after you if you are in the middle of the walkway. No
matter what the heat level, the cops will not get you and they will eventually
drive away.
Use the following trick to evade all the police, even at
level 5. In the first part of the world where you start out, just around main
street is the bus station. Notice in cruise mode that there is a second floor
part of it, near the edge. In any chase, just drive to that and go on the
second floor. Drive back and forth until you get the green evading bar to start
to get to the cool down bar. This does take slightly longer to cool down, but
it is definitely easier that driving all over trying to find a place. This is
especially useful in Challenge 40 with the Mclaren, where you have to evade for
at least ten minutes. .
When the police try to box you in after you hit something,
turn 90 degrees away from them. Then, use your nitrous to turn the other 90
degrees, otherwise you might spin out. By doing this, you will get a head start
and will not get busted.
The easiest way to shake off the police is to exact a PIT
maneuver on them. With a lot of speed, aim for the police car's back left or
back right area, near the rear right wheel or the rear left wheel. Sometimes on
Heat levels 1 and 2, this maneuver (when over 120 mph) will disable their
pursuit car immediately. Spinning the level 5 police cars out of control is a
good way to evade them. As for the "Rhinos", getting to a high speed
(over 150 mph), and drive head on at the Rhino. Swerve out of the way at the
last moment. If the helicopter tries to push you over, just keep swerving and
crossing lanes quickly. This should prevent it from knocking you over.
When approaching a roadblock which you cannot escape, press
[Speedbraker] (default is G) and ram into the lightest of the vehicles. When
the Speedbraker is activated, your car does not jump as high and has more maneuverability.
If you do not have your Speedbraker enabled when ramming into police vehicles,
you will sometimes jump on top of the police car and get busted. If you have it
on, it prevents your car from jumping and allows an easy getaway.
When trying to evade the cops, go to the bus station in
Rosewood. Go up the ramp and make sure none of the cops follow you up. Go to
the very end of the buses and watch your bounty go up as the cops destroy
themselves. Watch behind you for any cop smart enough to find their way up. For
a better way to do this and avoid getting busted, put the front end of the car
facing the ramp at the end of the buses. This trick is useful for making
milestone for time and is also good for racking up bounty. To get through the
cooldown and more fun, go to the walkway beside the ramp and sit there. Watch
the cops as they fly off the ramps and go crazy running into the wall and
destroying each other till the cooldown is over.
Draw the cops to the surrounding highways of Rosewood (the town
you start at) and keep circling the highways until you have completed your
milestones or wish to end the pursuit. When you pass the baseball stadium,
which on the map has two Pursuit Breakers on it, drive through the first
Pursuit Breaker so that you are in the stadium and the cops have stopped on the
other side of the rubble. You can then drive past the Pursuit Breaker on the
other side (making sure you do not hit it). Make a U-turn and drive straight
through the Pursuit Breaker and cops will not find you. Note: This only works
if you are under a level 4 heat; otherwise the helicopter can see you.
Use the following trick when you are in a race and become
involved in a police pursuit, but do not want to be after the race. At the end
of the race, restart it, then quit to free roam mode, The cops will not be
looking for you, and you will still get everything you did for the win (bounty,
money, and credit).
When you are in a police chase and they start putting
roadblocks down, you can get through them easier by ramming the police cars
near the rear section of the car. The back is lighter and this will make the
car fly easier out of your way.
To hide from cops, and still get bounty and heat, go to the
bus depot and drive up the ramp. Go to the side where the buses are not found.
Go all the way to the end. You should be facing a gas station. Stay up there,
but pay attention to your evade-busted meter, as you can accidentally evade the
pursuit. If the cool-down meter appears, drive off and look for cops. After you
find them, drive back up there. It is important that you drive all the way to
the end or else the cops will hit you. The cops normally drive off of the side
of the elevated platform.
When in a pursuit, use the Pursuit Breaker at the gas
station. After you have immobilized all the policemen around you, make a U-turn
with the Speed Breaker and go behind the gas station where the hiding spot is
located.
Sit on the very edge of the hospital or jail and let the
cops drive past you. Your heat will go up, but they cannot catch you. Also, if
you want to lose the cops, just fall off and let your car reset (do not reset
it yourself). You will lose them instantly.
Find a circle or a small square made up of roads. Keep going
around it for about five laps. You can do it more and make sure the cops see
you once in awhile to get a huge time bounty (over half an hour long). You will
never be stopped by a roadblock or a spike strip, because they will place them
on the outside roads, and not in the circle. To get away, wait until the cops
say "We've lost em", then turn out of the circle and drive away. Make
sure the cops do not see you trying to get away or it will not work and you
will have to return to the circle and repeat the trick.
When you are cruising and hear the cops on the radio, drive
at least to the speed limit. If you see the cop, pretend to be a normal driver
and do not break the law or he will chase you.
When entering a milestone, use the map and go to the stadium
in the far left corner of the map. Go through the right side entrance and knock
down the sign for the stadium. The cops cannot follow you because it blocks
almost the entire entrance. Exit out the other side and go under the small
parking garage. As soon as cool down mode, starts there is a hiding location
nearby.
When the police are chasing you, go in to the bus station.
Get on top of the buses and turn your car 180 degrees so that you are facing
the terminal. When the police chase after you, hit reverse and fall off the
buses. Choose to respawn. You should now be back on top of the buses with no
police. When doing this, watch the bar at the bottom of the screen. If you
respawn while near busted, you will get busted.
If you get busted by the police, press [Windows] then press
[Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Delete]to display the Task Manager window. Select the Need
For Speed: Most Wanted option, and select "End Task". When the game
is started again you will still have all your money and nothing has changed.
If you are in a pursuit and cannot shake the police, go to a
gas station and hide behind it. This works most of the time if done correctly.
When you finish a race with a maximum chance of getting
caught by the police and they radio in a report, immediately choose "Jump
To Safe House" and you will not get caught.
Go to the heart of Rosewood. There will be three Pursuit
Breakers near each other. Hit all three and you will lose the police. Note: One
is a doughnut shop, another is a gas station, and the last one is a tire store.
If the police are after you, go to the baseball field. There
is a side that has something sticking out of the ground by the highway that is
elevated. Go up to the object and press[Nitro]. If you land it correctly you
will be on the elevated highway driving away and leaving the cops wondering
where you went. Note: This may not always work.
If your car has high heat level with the police, bring it to
a One Stop Shop. Change your car's paint color until you have your desired
rating. Then, change the color back to its original version and get out of the
shop. The police will not recognize your car and you will have a low heat
rating.
Hint: Levels of police action:
The various levels of police action are as follows.
Level 1: Marked patrol cars and cruisers. They mostly chase
and try to run you off the road. If you have a quick car you will get away from
these easily.
Level 2: Unmarked patrol cars and cruisers, roadblocks. They
mainly try to ram you off the road and setup roadblocks. Avoid roadblocks by
doing an emergency brake lock U-turn or go through them. You can get through by
ramming the cars on either end of the roadblock or by going through a weak
point like the sawhorse or a gap between the cars. Use Speedbreaker to see the
weak point in the roadblocks and use nitrous to ram straight through. Some road
blocks will not extend all the way across the road -- you can go through where
they haven not placed a car.
Level 3: Marked GTO (Monaro) police cars, marked 4WDs
(Rhinos), rolling road blocks, roadblocks. These are quicker and you need to
use objects to knock down in front of them to disable them. Lead the chase with
these vehicles through the cities to use knock down points (for example, the
giant donut sign, etc.) to disable the vehicles and end the chase. Then, find
somewhere to hide when you hit cool down mode. "Rhinos" will ram you
from the front. Listen for the call over the police radio. You can usually see
these coming on your map or on the road ahead. Depending on which car you have,
you can get away with ramming them head on. Otherwise, just use Speedbreaker
again to change lanes before they ram you.
Level 4: Unmarked GTO (Monaro) police cars, helicopters,
spike strips. The unmarked GTOs (Monaros) usually chase in packs and are very
difficult to avoid. They will try to box you in by surrounding the car from the
front and back and slamming the brakes to not give you any room to escape.
Avoid this by staying ahead and using the same tactics used in level 3. For the
helicopters, use tunnels and underground parking lots to escape from-them. Once
they spot you, they can radio the police to your location. Spike strips are set
up usually on main roads and highways. You can see them on the map, when you
see only one vehicle over to left of the road not driving (i.e., pulled over).
Aim for the police car and use nitrous to ram it and get away. If you hit the
spike strip you will get caught.
Level 5: You will not have to worry about this until you are
at Blacklist #3. By then if you are still running and the level reaches 5, all
the best and toughest police come out. The helicopters get more aggressive,
there are more spikes, and more belts are called in on you. You must also deal
with "cross" cop Corvettes. Cross and his team will apprehend you at
all cost. Like in level 4. the unmarked GTO cars will surround and box you in
and hit the brakes. Corvettes will also try to use rolling road blocks. If you
run into the level 5, make sure you are in your fastest vehicle. You will need
the nitrous.
Level 6: You will only reach this level of police in the
last race of the game when you already have retrieved the BMW M3 GTR that you
have lost to Razor in the beginning of the game. In the last race, you will be
up against a type of Corvette police car that has more power than the normal
Corvette police cars. For the ultimate challenge they will make spike strips,
road blocks, a more aggressive police chopper and more powerful SUVs. You
cannot run away from then and the only choice is to go to the road that
finishes the game when Mia will calls to you and indicates the place on the
map.
Level 7: This level can only be reached in Need For Speed
Most Wanted: Black Edition. In the Black Edition Pursuit challenge you will
face heavy SUVs that have an incredible power. It is very easy to be busted by
them. You will use a Camaro SS. That will be the most difficult challenge in
the entire game. To complete it you must get 500,000 bounty. They will always
use roadblocks and spike strips.

aware of them of their meaning to know what to expect.

Hint: Achieving higher Heat levels:
You will start campaign mode only being able to only achieve
Heat levels 1 and 2 (City Police). By defeating certain Blacklist Rivals, you
can then achieve the higher Heat Levels.
Heat level 3 (State Police): Defeat the Blacklist #13 rival.
Heat level 4 (Undercover State Troopers): Defeat the
Blacklist #9 rival.
Heat level 5 (Federal Authorities): Defeat the Blacklist #5
rival. After you beat the Rockport's Most Wanted level, Heat level 5 will then
consist of both the Federal Authorities and Cross' Street Racin' Unit.
Heat level 6 (Undercover Federal Authorities): On the final
challenge (Challenge Series mode) and on the final level of Campaign Mode. Sgt.
Cross joins in the pursuit in the final level.
Heat Level 7 (Federal Authorities-Supercharged Heavy SUV's):
Pursuit Challenge (Challenge Series mode). Note: This is exclusive to the Black
Edition version of the game.
Use the following trick to get to Heat level 5. Race all the
Blacklist racers and complete Career mode. Complete the final pursuit by
clearing the gorge. Then, use the BMW MR GTR in all your pursuits. The heat on
the BMW will never go under level 5.
Hint: Lowering Heal levels:
To lower the Heat from your car, go to a Stop Shop and go
in. Then, change the color of your car. Leave and do not move. Press [Up] to go
back in and change the car back to its original color. Your Heat will be lower
by 1. Do this multiple times to reach condition 1 again.
Hint: Get strikes off your car:
If you get busted in a pursuit, turn off the game before
saving it. When the game is played again the strike will be gone. Note: This
will not work if you can only get one more strike.

Hint: Recommended car:
The best start car is the Cobalt SS. Use that car until you
get the Eclipse. When you win Blacklist races, try for the three "?"
markers. You can get cash or the pink slip car. If you get their car, go to the
safe house and sell it. You can get good money by doing this, and get unique
upgrades after you start getting into the visuals (after you switch from the
Cobalt).
After you defeat Ming, if you get his Lamborghini it should
make progressing further in the game easier. When you get his Lamborghini, go
to the tuner shop and add in any upgrades needed for performance.
After beating Blacklist #8, you will have a choice to buy
the Lotus Elise, You should by now have enough money to buy it. If not, you may
want sell it to make enough. Once you have the money, buy that car. It is great
at road handling, and is very fast. This is after you have maxed out its
performance to the best it will let you. Note: The stock top speed and the
handling do not look high at first.
Take the Volkswagen Golf from Sonny and keep getting unique
performance parts. Put them on that car to max it out before Blacklist #3 or
#4. Note: You will still have to buy ultimate upgrades from the performance
shop..
In career mode, the best car to have is the Clio Sport. If
you get this car early enough you should be able to max it out. If you put a
few unique performance parts in there, it will be the best car to have. Also,
if you just go to "My Cars" and max the Clio, you will be able to
compare it to other cars.
Start out with a Lexus and as time goes on, use the Supra.
Drive the Supra winning the Aston Martin DB9. You should get as much bounty as
possible in the beginning. You need 10 million to go against Razor.
After defeating Izzy, get her Mazda RX-8 and tune it out
further, as much as possible. And after awhile you can make it as fast as it
can go. Note: Use Junkman parts -- they work great.
The fastest car is Ming's Gallado. It is already tuned all
the way.
When you start new career, buy the Lexus. By doing this you
do not have to upgrade your car to win every race if you do not want to spend
your money. When you compete against Issy on the Blacklist use the car that you
won from Taz. If you sold it, you can still win the race by trying it several
times. When you race, try to slow down as much as possible on the corners. If
you did not upgrade your car you will lose control. You can still catch up to
the other racers on the quick turns or highways.
Hint: Recommended car tuning:
If you are performance tuning your car, try to raise
"Top Speed", "Acceleration", and "Handling" at
the same time, and keep them even as much as possible.
Try these settings for high speed tracks: Steering +2,
Handling +2, Brakes +3, Aerodynamics 0 (middle), Ride Height -3, Turbo +3. Try
setting Aerodynamics to -3 for even more speed but less control. For tighter
tracks, set Aerodynamics to +3 and Turbo to -3. For even better results during
a race, pause game play switch between high speed and tighter track settings on
the tuning screen to maximize performance.
Use the following trick when trying to defeata Blacklist
member past #5. All you need is a fully modified Corvette (Webster's will do).
Go to the tuning section at the start menu and set the following options:
Steering -2, Handling middle, Brakes +3, Ride Height -3, Aerodynamics +2,
Nitrous -1, and Supercharger +2 or 3. After you have completed this, take it to
the highway and test it out. It is possible to reach 365 km/h. Note: You can
change the steering, brakes, and handling to suit your driving style.
Hint: Blacklist cars:
If you win the pinkslips to a Blacklist car, you may want to
use the Blacklist car as your own and make the necessary upgrades to
performance, as most of the upgrades will have been already made by the
Blacklist owner. You do not need to spend too much money to increase the
performance, handling, etc. Sometimes these cars will have upgrades that have
not been unlocked yet, but most of these are usually visual. Only do this if
the vehicle you have won has better attributes than the one you are currently
driving in its standard mode. You can check this out in the car shop. Keep
about three to five good quick cars in your safehouse.
Hint: Car test:
If you are unsure which car is the best to use when
upgraded, you can upgrade all the cars that are unlocked for free in the main
menu.-Go to "My Cars", choose a car that is available, and upgrade it
with the parts that are available. By doing this, you will not waste all your
money in career mode.
Hint: Better car performance:
After getting your car upgraded with engines, suspension,
brakes, etc., go to "Performance Tuning". For better handling for the
Lamborghini, Porsche, Corvette, and Viper, set the "Height" of you
car to "-1". If you need more gripping power either take the
"Height" to "-2" or set the "Aerodynamics" to
"+1". If you go overboard with the performance tuning options
(anything past "+3" or "-3"), the car will actually handle
worse.
Go to "My Cars". Choose one of your cars and go to
"Performance". Set "Ultimate Parts" on. If you won the
Extra Race, put in Junkman Parts.
Hint: Respawning:
If you crash your car do not force it to respawn. Instead,
let the game reset your car. You will then be invulnerable and able to get away
from the cops if you are in a very tight spot.
Hint: Avoiding SUVs:
Have a good car and a good Nitro booster. Whenever you see
an SUV coming at you, hit your nitrous and ram him head on. He should fly
backward and explode, giving you $10,000.
Hint: Barrel roll:
When you go into Rockport
City
Glitch: Drive through police:
In a pursuit, drive through a Pursuitbreaker and it switch
to an intermission sequence. After it ends you should have control over your
car. If there are any police cars around you, you can drive through them. If
this does not work at first, keep trying.
Glitch: Reset:
When you are in a pursuit, go to the bus station. Drive up
to the second floor, but do not go onto the buses. Instead, go onto the
concrete platform on the other side. When a cop comes on top of the platform
behind you, drive off the platform then immediately press [Reset]. You will
reappear on top of the platform once again, with no cops on the platform, and
you will not be busted.
