I’m only up to mission 8 and even on “Wimp” difficulty, this game is hard. Here’s what I’ve found so far:
Race in mission 5 is tricky, but I managed it on ‘Champ’ difficulty. (By accident when I was trying to cheat before I realized cheats block progression.)
Main thing for me was slowing ahead of the turns, joystick controls, and repeating until other cars messed up which let me pass them easily. Some guides said to use nitro or lighten car by under weighting load out. Yet you’ll still need weapons for the fight after the race.
Oh, and if front weapons get destroyed you can use the handgun or drive in reverse with the backwards facing 3rd person view (F3 or F4 I think).
Is anybody playing it with a steering wheel?
I played it for a short while with steering wheel.
Felt really immersive.
Say more @poweruppete! I’d love a wheel but this game is so finicky about joysticks. Also hate the old wheels I used to have with only like 90 degrees of movement. Do any older wheels rotate full 360? Ideally hoping to find one that’s compatible back to Windows 95, or a modern one with drivers that can work that far back.
