A New Look at NFSCARBON
Many consider Carbon a failure of the NFS series.And why is that?It's because it can easily be beaten in a day,after the race with Darius you cruise the streets in tuned Carrera,Corvette,Skyline and you quickly get bored of it...You don't feel like playing Carbon a second time because you're too lazy to do the meager races,to take over territories.And you delete Carbon thinking "And that took a whole year?".
The purpose of my article is to explain that Carbon is not a couple-of-hours entertainment,but a fun game with lots of mysteries and interesting bugs.
So we take out the Carbon disc,blow the dust off it and read.
So,let's start with the cops and city residents.To mock them to your heart's content you need to download the +10 trainer.We launch the trainer,launch the game,go into free roam and get familiar with the main trainer functions:
F5-Accelerate to 300 km/h;the speed can be changed by entering the desired amount in the trainer window,but I don't recommend entering more than 500-600 km/h because the car will simply fly into the air.
F6-a button similar to F5,the more you press it,the more speed,if you just hold it,it will push up to 6000 km/h(checked on the radar)
F7-the funniest button,if you drive up to a traffic car and press F7,the car will take off like a jet fighter
F8-super brake,handy when you're flying at spikes at 200 km/h
Alt+1-endless nitrous
Alt+2-endless SpeedBreaker
Alt+3-changes the behavior of cops in a chase,when pressed the cops don't follow you but go to the nearest pelmeni place
Alt+4-Never Busted(cops won't catch you)
Alt+5-All parts unlocked
Alt+6-All cars unlocked,with this one I had glitches in 1.2:say you have 4 cars bought without the trainer,you buy 2 cars with the trainer,press car selection,you'll only have the ones bought without the trainer there,but the cars bought with the trainer will take up space,and you won't be able to buy others
Now let's talk about hidden places in Carbon,there are 3:
First-inside the safe house,we fly onto the roof of the house with the J button and end up in our house
Second-the place behind the "crusher" in Wolf's area(the black crusher made of three pillars),you can jump there with the same J button
Third-a place similar to a sewer in Angie's area,at the end there's a wall with graffiti,we jump onto it and end up on a new road outside the map,it's small,but there's enough room to drive around.
Let's talk about cops:
On the first level it's better to just drive and wait for the second.
On the second, blocks will appear,they can be knocked down with the F5 button or 7-8 presses of F6,the cops will fly high and fast.
On the third level light jeeps will appear.We drive at them on SpeedBreaker,when about 3-4 meters remain we sharply press F5 and the jeeps take off.
On the fourth level spikes will appear,so before flying at a block at 2000 km/h,you need to check the presence and location of spikes so as not to drive onto them.
On the fifth level our old friend Cross will appear,whom we kill with the F5 or F7 button
If you get tired of running from the cops there's another thing-traffic.
At first glance it's calm.But that's only at first glance,it's enough to drop the cars off the truck and a passing traffic car will turn into a cool lowrider.
If you create a traffic jam the traffic will sort things out(pushing and kicking each other).
You can line up the traffic in a row,take a screenshot of them,and happily smash them at 1000 km/h(this is a fun activity).
And the coolest thing in Carbon is the canyon.You can get there with the +6 trainer(not +10).In the trainer we move two sliders to maximum values,enter the game,press free roam and during loading immediately press F2 and right away F5(after 0.5 sec) and don't let go,loading is done and we're flying(if you're flying in circles press F3),sometimes we look at the map(M button),when we see on the map that we're on the canyon spot we press F3 and fall into the canyon.In the canyon there's traffic,cops,it's very fun there.On the map to the left of the West Canyon spot I found a drift track and the city where Nikki and Neville taught you to drive at the start of the career,though I didn't manage to get down there,but I think you will.I think after this article you'll play NFSCARBON much more often.
That's the end of the article,and whoever read it-WELL DONE!
