Strange, I've never even heard of it. I'll check out because I love racing games, though I've never liked the handling of bizarre creations games, I love Codemasters handling, specifically the older CMR games and GRID.
got the beta last night didn't get to try it till earlier today and i was stuck to the tv it was great, anyone wants to race let me know xbox gamer tag: WILL WILSON 08
Thanks Crasong!
It's pretty cool. Better than I'd expected. The limited number of tracks does bore quickly.
The only thing that bothers me though, is that when you're driving last, it's really hard to affect the guys in front and climb back up. Seems like all the weapons are ineffective or not that good at long range. The Shock usually just gets one guy and that slows him down a bit. The other way around is when i drive first I only have to worry if a guy gets a bit close, other than that you pretty much can't be touched.
Kinda means it gets down to luck with your starting position and not getting hit too much in the first seconds.
Oh and that one perk thingy that gives you a free powerup at start is kinda useless.I keep hoping for a Barge but alas, it's always a Repair...
Sorry to bump, but I've got three more keys, but this time you gotta use these keys to register on the blur website, buts its a guaranteed instant beta account. PM me if yer interested.
i veen able to win races several times even tough i was dead last after the first lap... just need a good strategy, track knowledge and a bit of luck
Nah man, I agree with bounchfx. The only weapon that has considerable range, is the Shock. Your opponents will most of the time hit just one of the Shock spots, which slows them down a little bit, but absolutely not enough for you to catch up.
try picking up several shocks before using them... its much harder to evade 9 shock domes rather than 3... and dont use them when you know the 1st is right before a split route or a bridge/tunnel... but sure, if the player in 1st is skilled enough it can get hard
