Quite recently our user Airslasher wrote a review of NFS:Shift.
You can read the review here.

Today many of you will get behind the wheel of race cars in Need For Speed SHIFT, and so we decided to give a few tips for beginners. Going forward, we will constantly talk about and show various tricks from the game that will help you get into the world championship NFS. Today we will talk about the most ordinary things that will help you get through the career more easily.

Inside the news you will find several tutorial videos and a couple of races in Online.

Tips for beginners:

1) Choose the difficulty level that suits you.

2) It is advisable to win the first race; you will, of course, receive money for 8th place too, but the extra 20 000 for first place in the career will come in very handy. So it is better to race 2-3 times, but win!

3) Not all assists in the game help you drive faster; most, on the contrary, will only make you slower. For example, auto-braking always brakes earlier than necessary, and stability control reduces speed at the slightest slides. So you should choose according to the principle of turning off everything without which we can drive comfortably. That is, theoretically the easiest way to beat the AI is on easy difficulty with driving assists turned off.

4) If you can't complete a race, try changing your car. This is the most reliable way, since it is possible that either this car does not suit you in terms of driving style, or it is simply not the fastest in its class.

5) If you have problems with an opponent in the "Car Battle" game mode, you can always either take him out or do this:

Game bug: despite the fact that the opponent pulled ahead by 5 sec, the game counts a victory because we crossed the finish line first.

6) The methods shown above will help you in a regular race too, but remember that in one race you can cut the track and not receive a penalty for it only twice; on the third time you will be disqualified.

Online general overview

Representatives of this class are easy to meet on the streets of real cities. Relatively inexpensive and not fast cars, yet possessing maximum potential for all kinds of upgrades. A racer's career begins with them Need for Speed SHIFT.

Class 2
Regular participants in nighttime legal and not-so-legal races. BMW M3, Lancer Evo, Subaru Impreza WRX and similar cars will delight street racing fans. Others can buy a Class 3 car right away.

Class 3
More than four hundred purebred horses each. When meeting them, people take photos with them and follow the owners of these urban bolides with envious glances. But unlike Class 4 and Class 5 cars, these can at least be seen with one's own eyes.

Class 4
The most expensive and fastest cars permitted for use on public roads. It is also a pleasure to mention the racing veteran Need for Speed - McLaren F1, which remains to this day the fastest naturally aspirated car.

Class 5
Bonus car class Need for Speed SHIFT. Here are exclusively racing versions of production cars, specially built for competitions such as the championship FIA GT, the 24 Hours of Le Mans etc.
