Burnout Paradise

that's fine, it gave me time to finish up all but 7 of the events for my elite license (6 road rage + 1 BR)

it seems the trick to marked man is to drive the inferno burnout team van at 20mph

Well, if I can hold my controller after doing all this shovelling I'll be online later, seeing as today has become a snow day for me.

Thats what I'm using for Marked Man and Road Rages. That Van is a tank.

I just got the Burnout license and they want me to win over 100 races for the Elite?? LAWL No thanks. I'll just complete the road rages and marked man and I'm done. edit: WTF..they reset all the races after getting the burnout license??!! Fuck this shit.

It resets after every license upgrade.

It resets after every license upgrade.

Really..haven't noticed. I won't bother with the elite though because I just suck at the stunt runs.

[MechDeus]

DJ Atomica explains it after the first license upgrade.

Stunt runs are usually pretty easy. Just go find a good super jump nearby before you start and then go back and forth while chaining with emergency brake spins and such. As long as you're boosting the combo won't end, even if time runs out. Granted, if you just drive up to one and then hope to find somewhere to bust it out that's usually a recipe for failure.

yeah stunt runs are cake if you have the right car and the icon isn't out in the middle of the fucking boons... I can hit 1 million easy with my P12 Track at the quarry area because there's two fuck huge barrel roll jumps in the immediate area, along with at least 9 billboards and a handful of normal jumps

[ChaoofNee]

yeah it's not really linear at all, it's all open-world

I miss the menus. It's a chore driving to every freaking event and I keep getting lost in the races. Those signs don't come up nearly soon enough.

The game's flipping amazing, otherwise. Too bad those two flaws nearly killed it for me.

[cka]

hell yeah 101% complete

OK, despite my earlier bellyaching, I caved in and bought the game about two weeks ago.

Man, I love this game! I've already clocked in 36 hours of play, roughly 3 hours a day. It's amazing since I've have Burnout Revenge for close to 2 1/2 years and only have about 60 hours on that. I can easily see myself getting to 100 hours on this one (which is about what I've put into Burnout 3, actually).

I've been spending a lot of time lately trying to do the online Road Rules, knocking off some of my buddies' scores. Then you've got this guy over here:

magnified, go to the freeway tunnels on the west side of town, and try to beat my showtime score there its like 27,000,000 or something

I noticed that. Freakin' sick! By comparison, my Showtime high score is just shy of 8 million.

Diffusionx also has a few online Showtime scores that I'm struggling to beat.
