Need For Speed Underground Demo - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

supafly · 11-05-2003, 04:22 AM

I just played the Need For Speed Underground demo. It was super cool

. It's all about street racing and tuning your car. Looks Fast and the Furious style. The online street race is very cool you can challenge other players and race the individually or with 4 people at the same time. I can really recommend installing this demo.
Does anyone have it installed already? Maybe we can make a FTP street race competition or just race each other.

Peryn · 11-05-2003, 11:20 AM

I haven't played or d/l it yet...but could you perhaps throw me some more info? Im not really into any of the street racing tuner F&F crowd and their thing, but i do enjoy cars. The racing i can deal with, but how is the tuning part of the game? What kind of options do you get, how techincal/realistic is it, or is it just body kits and spoliers, and tires and stuff? If its mainly a bunch of cosmetic junk then i dont want to waste my time on getting or trying it. All i get from their site or othr info i've seen is that you can tune your cars...which most people changin the paint would be considered tuning...

Locke · 11-06-2003, 06:19 PM

We have the demo at work. I havent played it yet, but if I were to purchase a gome just based on looks, this would be it.

i dont know what to say, just trying to add posts

Sun Tzu · 11-07-2003, 12:42 AM

If a link exsists and your commenting on the coolness of it; please post it. I'll go look for it now.

Here it is.

Need For Speed Underground Demo link

Shauk · 11-07-2003, 12:47 AM

http://www.eagames.com/official/nfs/...nd/us/home.jsp

just click on downloads and then hit the PC demo tab

btw did anyone think the movie err trailer they put out for this was incredibly lame?

theres a hi res link on the site there too but i also got to watch it on my ps2 copy of SSX 3

god, just show me the actual game, not people letting off the gas and then pushing it again and all of a sudden attributing that to making the car going really fast.

bah.

deve · 11-14-2003, 11:37 AM

its definately one of the coolest games I have ever played, I am planning on buying it when it comes out--I cant wait to see what happens when the community gets ahold of the source for it...just imagine- whole new cars will be released.

Mr.Deflok · 11-14-2003, 02:24 PM

Comes out next week! I'm not big on car games but this one took the cake, incredible stylistic while still having a solid driving engine (unlike Auto Modelista).

JimmyTheHutt · 11-14-2003, 02:51 PM

The control on the demo is WAAAAAY too twitchy. It drives me nuts. I hope the game isn't this squirrely, because it looks friggin' great.

nukeu666 · 11-15-2003, 07:16 AM

this is the 2ns good racing game ive ever played(1st was nfs5)

i got a 25.1[and still reducing] on the drag couse(demo)

what r your times?

Shauk · 11-15-2003, 07:35 AM

eh well the steering on drag is super easy, it jsut changes lanes when you hit left or right.

however yeah, the circut racing is a bit harder

my best time is like 26 sumthin. Im not that hardcore ;p

hahaha · 11-16-2003, 12:19 PM

I downloading now, from the previews that I have seen it looks like it has a lot of potential.

Redjake · 11-16-2003, 05:06 PM

Nice dyslexia...heh...I'll be sure to check it out

Lasereth · 11-16-2003, 05:43 PM

I can only get 25.33. Oh well! Man, the graphics are amazing in the drag-race mode. I've never seen nitrous oxide displayed so stylishly!

nukeu666 · 11-17-2003, 12:32 PM

gfx for the game was directed by the guy who made 'special effects' for phantom menance

Snakebyt · 11-18-2003, 04:42 PM

i cant wait to play the full version, to see if you aer going to be able to tune them like in Gran Turismo series. I am hoping that there will be more cars made for the game. Wouldnt mind seeing some muscle cars in that lineup

Im playing the full version now.. it seems to rock so far.. here is a tip.. to gain some style points to get you started, go to quick race, and do the drift track several times..

i have a feeling ill be playing this alot!

RemyLebeau97 · 11-19-2003, 05:30 PM

Snakebyt, what all cars are featured and how do you earn them?? Race for slips? Race for money?, or unlock them from beating stages ??

Snakebyt · 11-19-2003, 09:25 PM

you get a few cars to start, and you unlock other cars, and upgrades ect, by winning races

Shauk · 11-20-2003, 11:59 AM

I have the full version, my car is modded up to level 2.

theres 111 races in the game in ug mode.

im at like.. 30something.

gonna take a while to beat.

Caphreak · 11-20-2003, 12:48 PM

I also have the full, but im waiting til my thanksgiving break to play it

Plan9Senior · 11-20-2003, 03:02 PM

This game is fun as hell

Thumbs up from me.

Nimbletoe · 11-21-2003, 02:26 PM

Can't... stop... playing!!!!

Seriously, if you liked fast and the furious, or like any racing games, this is the best racing game i've ever played. Ever. Highly reccommended!

RemyLebeau97 · 11-22-2003, 12:24 AM

Ok I finally got around to playing it and it's true that if your a street racing fan you'll love it. I especially love the drag racing mode, you get to focus more on the gears than on steering the car. I also love how on this game you pretty much have to work for everything you earn it's a challenge for sure. Very kick ass.

IC3 · 11-22-2003, 09:40 PM

I just picked it up for PS2 today..I haven't really sat down and started it...I just tryed a couple quick races and it seems alright.

I'm sure it will be better when I actually choose my car and start tuning it.
