_____________________________
|Acceleration/Braking/Steering|
_______________________________________________________________________________
These three tenets are at the core of every racing game. 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.

Shortcuts:
6.0 Miles- Right side. Dirt road with a cluster of rocks in the middle. Useful.
5.4 Miles- Left side. Dirt road that goes through a tunnel. Seems useful, but
because the last part is just a straight, the loss of speed cannot
be justified by the distance saved.
3.3 Miles- Left side. Be prepared to turn immediately after coming out of the
tunnel. Extremely useful dirt path. About halfway through the path
will fork. Go right to get the greatest benefit.

Shortcuts:
7.6 Miles- Left side. Dirt road that leads directly into the next shortcut.
Barely useful. Distance is saved but to enter the shortcut you
have to be holding left at the very beginning of the race, so you
won't have any speed going into it. Also, as you exit the shortcut
and go to enter the next one, which is actually useful, you will
almost always run right into one of the cars coming down the road.
6.9 Miles- Right side. Dirt road that goes through a long construction tunnel.
Useful.
6.1 Miles- Left side. Straight dirt road. Barely useful. The distance saved
doesn't really make up for the speed lost, especially since the
main road essentially becomes a straight just after the turn,
allowing the other cars to build up speed while you're stuck on the
dirt.
4.6 Miles- Left side. Dirt road that winds through some trees. Useful.
3.6 Miles- Both sides. Paved paths go under the bridge. Useless unless you are
being hounded by cops.

Shortcuts:
11.1 Miles- Left side. 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. Ignore it.

Shortcuts:
10.5 Miles- Right side. 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. Useless.
