Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit alternative walkthrough

==============

NFSHP3. Career

==============

The Hot Pursuit Career is broken into two: Racer Career and Cop Career. Both

can be attempted and completed simultaneously, as opposed to going through one

and then having to go through the other. Each location listed can have anywhere

from 2 to 6 events; however, you will have to progress through the individual

Careers to unlock the later events at each location. In terms or variety, the

Racer Career has more types of events to compete in. Before you each event, you

will be given an introduction to the event, be able to see how your Friends did

in the event, as well as the Bounty rewards. 

=====================

NFSHP3A. Racer Career

=====================

The Racer Career events are marked with orange signs. Completing these events

will add to your Racer Bounty, which will unlock more cars for you to use, as

well as unlock more events to compete in.

receive a medal.

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Sports Series

Time of Day: 5:00 PM

Weather: Cloudy

The Seacrest County police take a zero-tolerance policy to speed limit

infractions and their enforcement tactics can get a little rough. Still, what

do you care? You have a race to win. 

Event Distance: 7.6 miles

Gold (6,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You will have no weapons to use during this event. You will be outrunning Ford

Crown Victorias. For each one you take down, you will earn an extra 500 Bounty.

You can also take out the other racers to help your chances at victory. This

event is basically a sprint, since the cops won't use weapons either. 

Event 2: Sports Car Named Desire

Event Type: Race

Sports Series

Time of Day: 3:00 AM

Weather: Clear

It's time to decide which car you desire the most. Will you choose freedom,

passion, and style? Or power, aggression, and muscle?

Gold (6,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

This race has a bunch of early turns. The other racers may seem a little more

aggressive than normal, so watch out for a possible wreck. Once you earn Bronze

in this event, as well as the other Sports Series events, the Performance

Series events will become available. 

Event 3: The Ultimate Road Car

Event Type: Preview

Performance Series

Time of Day: 10:00 AM

Weather: Clear

McLaren invites you to test drive their classic sports car: the F1. Wit ha

limited production run of 106, a central driving position, butterfly doors, and

an engine bay lined with gold, the McLaren remains the fastest naturally

aspirated car in the world.

Event Distance: 8.7 miles

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st (Finish in under 3:08.00)

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 3:

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 

This course contains many sharp turns, including a couple sections that some in

a relatively-quick succession. 

Event 4: Racing Stripes

Event Type: Duel

Super Series

Time of Day: 4:00 AM

Weather: Wet

The Lamborghini Gallardo Valentino Balboni and Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake

are dueling on the tricky mountain roads of Eagle Crest. With so much power

going through the rear wheels and some very tight turns only the best drivers

will prevail. 

Event Distance: 12.5 miles

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

By the time you get to this event, you may be able to choose either car,

instead of being limited to whichever one you had unlocked by the time you got

here. I recommend the GT500; the extra bulk compared to the Lamborghini allows

you to thrash it around a little and maybe knock it into something and wreck

it. 

Event 5: Timed Machine

Event Type: Time Trial

Super Series

Time of Day: 8:00 PM

Weather: Cloudy

Use the traffic to your advantage as you take the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, a

classic of tomorrow, on a foot to the floor drive along East Gorge Freeway.

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:03.00

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:13.00

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:33.00

You will be driving the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG for this event. The course is

wet, so watch the drifting. There is a useful shortcut on the right, right

after the first turn. Once you get on the highway, it is basically a sprint to

the finish; a good chunk of it will be driven at top speed, most likely. 

Event 6: Blacklisted

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Super Series

Time of Day: 8:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Your recent exploits have got the attention of the county Sheriff. He's unhappy

with how you've been treating his deputies, and will use all the tools at his

disposal to stop you in your tracks

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

The only car you are allowed to use for this event is the Mercedes-Benz SLS

AMG. You will have 2 Turbos, and 3 Jammers, EMPs, and Spike Strips to help

elude the cops. The cops will have all of their weapons as well.

Event 1: Title Fight

Event Type: Duel

Sports Series

Time of Day: 6:00 PM

Weather: Wet

It's time to weigh up the 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X versus the Subaru

Impreza WRX STI. Both are renowned for their off-road capabilities, as well as

their speed on track, but only one can be your guiding star tonight

Event Distance: 7.0 miles

Gold (6,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You are limited to either the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X or the Subaru

Impreza WRX STI. The first time you attempt this event, you may only have the

Mitsubishi available; however, you are at least guaranteed 4,000 Bounty, since

there are only 2 of you racing. Your opponent will stick to the main road, but

there are useful shortcuts to take, especially if you need to get close to him

Event 2: The Prestige

Event Type: Race

Performance Series

Time of Day: 10:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Take any of these luxurious sports cars from these four prestigious marques of

Jaguar, Porsche, Maserati, or Alfa Romeo. 

Event Distance: 13.2 miles

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd

Like the description says, you are only able to use cars made by Jaguar,

Porsche, Maserati, or Alfa Romeo. Some of the racers will play rough, so watch

out around traffic if any are close to you. There are a plethora of long

straights for using Nitrous

Event 3: Ageless

Event Type: Preview

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 4:00 AM

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish in under 2:48.00

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:03.00

This event isn't too long, but there are a few objects that will just pop out

of nowhere and wreck you if you don't see them in time. There are plenty of

long straights to unleash this vehicle's true potential on, which can help to

bring down your time the longer you stay at top speed

Event 4: Bull Run

Event Type: Time Trial

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 1:00 AM

Weather: Thunderstorm

Make the most of the light night traffic and take Lamborghini's fastest ever

road car, the Murcielago LP 670-4 SV, along these high-speed coastal roads.

Event Distance: 9.4 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish in under 3:25.00

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:35.00

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish in under 4:05.00

There is plenty of room to drive, since most of this event is run on the wider

roads. Like the description says, traffic is very light, so it shouldn't be

much of a problem. Try and hang as close to the center divider as you can.

There are many sharp turns and as you approach them, there are reflectors on

the ground to help you stay on the road as you go through the turn

Event 5: Slide Show

Event Type: Time Trial

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 2:00 AM

Weather: Wet

Choose from massive range of exotics to fins the perfect balance of speed,

power, and control as you tackle this winding, 8.4 mile Time Trial.

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 3:24.00)

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 3:52.00)

This course has a good amount of straights and most of the turns can be taken

without having to go into a drift. You will most likely have to drift through

the 360-degree turns near the end.

Roadster. Valued at over $2m and with a production run limited to just 5

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 1:30.00)

Bronze (2,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 1:53.00)

Before you start the event, it will tell you that for Gold you have to finish

1st, which is easy to do when you are the only racer. However, to earn a medal,

you must beat the times listed in the parenthesis. This course is straight for

the most part, only two turns that require drifting, plus there isn't much

traffic, so you can drive in oncoming for most of the event. 

Event 2: Escape Lane

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Performance Series

Time of Day: 5:00 AM

Weather: Clear

Seacrest County Police took delivery of some new equipment today, so tread with

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd

using Spike Strips, Roadblocks, and may call in for a Helicopter if you get too

far ahead. 

Event 3: Stampede

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Super Series

Time of Day: 12:00 AM

Weather: Clear

You're going to need a fast, agile car to avoid the ordnance that the cops have

been equipped with. Fortunately, the Lamborghini Gallardo-in all it's guises-is

just the job!

Event Distance: 11.3 miles 

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You are limited to Lamborghinis for this event, but your car is now fitted with

Turbo, 3 of them for this event, and 2 Jammers. The cops are going all out as

well, with Level 3 Roadblocks and Spike Strips. There is a nice long, open

desert stretch of road; use a Turbo here without hitting anything to receive

the "In the Zone" Reward. 

Event 4: Jet Set

Event Type: Race

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 2:00 PM

Event Distance: 7.9 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You are only allowed to use the Bentley Continental, Ford GT, McLaren MP4-12C,

Porsche Carrera GT, Lamborghini Murcielago LP 640, or the Mercedes-Benz SLR

McLaren for another fun romp through the desert.  

Event 5: Power Struggle

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 12:00 AM

Weather: Clear

You're outnumbered, but not outgunned. These desert cops might be aggressive,

but they aren't prepared for the likes of you. You should have no trouble

taking them out as you duel to the finish

Event Distance: 12.0 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You are limited to the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 or the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

You will have 2 Jammers and Turbos, plus 4 EMPs and Spike Strips to combat the

cops with. Just like with one of the previous Hot Pursuits, this one is a

masked Duel. 

Event 6: Calm Before the Storm

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Hyper Series

Time of Day: 7:00 PM

Weather: Thunderstorm

It seems as if you've successfully avoided police attention for today's race;

radio chatter has been quiet. Too quiet, perhaps...

Event Distance: 16.5 miles

Gold (15,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (10,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (5,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You will have 3 Turbos, and 5 Jammers, EMPs, and Spike Strips available during

this event. The cops will have their full set of weapons as well, but there

aren't as many of them. It will be at least 5 miles into the race before you

encounter a pair of Koenigseggs.

Event 1: Breach of the Peace

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Sports Series

Time of Day: 6:00 AM

Weather: Clear

Reports are coming in of increased police presence in light of the recent spike

in street racing throughout Seacrest County. Not that you'd have anything to do

with that, would you?

Event Distance: 7.5 miles

Gold (6,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You will have 4 Spike Strips to use in this event. Once again, there are 4 of

you, so you will earn a medal as long as you don't finish in last place. You

will earn 200 Bounty for any Spike Strip hit, whether a Cop or Racer runs over

it. You will be outrunning Ford Police Interceptor Concepts and they will be

able to call in Roadblocks. You will wreck if you hit any of the stationary

cars. Should you happen to drive through one that no has touched, you will

receive the "Eye of the Needle" Reward. 

Event 2: Sidewinder

Event Type: Time Trial

Performance Series

Time of Day: 4:00 PM

Weather: Clear

The desert gets even hotter when all the Performance cars are out setting fast

times along Boulder Road

Event Distance: 4.2 miles

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st (Finish in under 1:42.00)

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 1:49.00)

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 2:03.00)

This course is full of quick bends, so controlling the car and keeping it on

the road becomes a little more fun, especially since it is only a two-lane

road. I would recommend taking all 3 shortcuts. Use Nitrous when coming out of

all 3 to get you speed back up, since the cars accelerate faster of the road

compared to the shortcuts.

Event 3: M Power

Event Type: Gauntlet

Performance Series

Time of Day: 5:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Speed. Power. Control. The BMW M3 raised the bar for ultimate driving

performance. Housed beneath the Powerdrive, the M3's V8 delivers 421 BHP and 0

to 60 in 4.8 seconds-just what you need to survive the lengthy pursuit

Event Distance: 7.3 miles

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st (Finish in under 2:55.00)

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 3:10.00)

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 3:40.00)

You will be able to use 3 Spike Strips in this event. There will be two cops

that will appear ahead of you in the first tunnel, and they will be the only

cops who will appear during the event. You can ram them when you first see them

to deal a good amount of damage, up to wrecking them. When you wreck cops in

Gauntlets, you won't receive any Bounty, but your Nitrous will be refilled.

After earning Bronze in this, and all other Performance Series events, Super

Series events will be unlocked.

Event 4: No Substitute

Event Type: Race

Super Series

Time of Day: 11:00 PM

Weather: Thunderstorm

Be the first to the finish in your choice of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, Porsche

911 Turbo S Cabriolet, and Porshce 918 Spyder

Event Distance: 7.5 miles

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

Only Porsches are allowed in this event. Taking shortcuts is up to you, if you

think it will help and you can navigate it without hitting anything, go for it.

The other racers will take shortcuts, especially the ones closer to the front

and as you get near the finish. 

Event 5: Double Jeopardy

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 4:00 PM

Weather: Clear

The police are doubling their efforts to close down the illegal street racing

in Seacrest County, so watch out, they're hunting in pairs

Event Distance: 16.6 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You will have 2 Turbos, and 4 Jammers, EMPs, and Spike Strips to slow down the

cops and escape. The cops will have all of their weapons as well. For anyone

who has finished the Cop Career, this event is very similar to 'End of the

Line' almost everything is the same. So, if you did well there as a Cop, you

should be able to anticipate where all the Roadblocks and Helicopters will end

up. 

Event 6: Spoilt for Choice

Event Type: Race

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 10:00 AM

Weather: Clear

This open race from Cascade Terrace to Lost Horse Road is just 12.0 miles long.

It'll probably take you longer to choose your car from a range, including the

Aston Martin One-77, the Pagani Zonda Cinque, and the Lamborghini Reventon

Roadster

Event Distance: 12.0 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

This race is wide open for the first half, but then goes down to two lanes

after that, so there isn't much passing room. If you want to jump out to a

quick lead, take the first 3 shortcuts you come across.

Porsche invites you test drive the phenomenal Carerra GT. An idea originating

from the pits of Le Mans led to exactly 1,270 being built-because exclusivity

occasionally needs a limit.

Event Distance: 6.8 miles

Gold (6,000 Bounty): Finish 1st (Finish in under 2:21.00)

Silver (4,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd (Finish in under 2:28.00)

Bronze (2,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd (Finish in under 2:45.00)

This Porsche Carerra handles very well. You will be able to take many of the

turns without needing to drift, unless absolutely necessary. I would recommend

taking the two train yard shortcuts (1st one on the right after coming out of

the first tunnel and the one across the road) to help lower your time because

the corners they cut go a long ways out. 

Event 2: Ultimately Open

Event Type: Preview

Time of Day: 4:00 PM

Lamborghini offer you the opportunity to experience one the most exclusive cars

ever made. The Reventon Roadster is a car of breathtaking fascination, menacing

power, and uncompromising performance.

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish in under 1:48.00

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 1:57.00

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish in under 2:08.00

This course has the two 360-degree turns, so the cleaner you can keep drifting

through them, the faster your time will be. Plus, if you can hold the drift

throughout the turn, you can refill an empty Nitrous bar. I would recommend

sticking to the main road and avoiding the shortcut between the 360-degree

turns. 

Event 3: Trail of Destruction

Event Type: Gauntlet

Super Series

Time of Day: 10:00 AM

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:35.00

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish in under 4:00.00

You will have 6 Spike Strips to help stop the cops. You will have to outrun two

Porsche Panamera Turbos, who will be able to call in Roadblocks. If the first

one that chases you calls in a Roadblock before you reach the observatory, take

the shortcut on the right, and you will avoid it. 

Event 4: Tough Torque

Event Type: Gauntlet

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 4:00 PM

Weather: Cloudy

How to stop a Bentley weighing 2,240 kg and powered by a V12 that can generate

621 BHP. It's not going to be easy, but that doesn't mean they will give up

easily.

Event Distance: 12.2 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish in under 4:55.00

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish in under 5:15.00

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish in under 5:45.00

You will have 6 Spike Strips and 2 Turbos to help you evade the law. This car

being the proverbially brick of the game, if you can ram any cop (they will be

Mercedes-Benz McLarens) before they begin to give chase, even if you just clip

them, there is a good chance that you can knock them out. The cops will be able

to use EMPs to slow you down. There are only a couple cops so if you can knock

them out early, you can save Turbos for long straights, instead of using

Nitrous

Event 5: One of Five

Event Type: Gauntlet

Exotic Series

Time of Day: 4:00 AM

Weather: Clear

The Zonda Cinque's carbo-titanium weave should offer you some protection, but I

wouldn't hang around to find out. Think fast and drive even faster to reach the

end of this event in one, very expensive piece.

Event Distance: 8.2 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish in under 3:00.00

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:10.00

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:30.00

You can pick between the original and the NFS Edition (The only differences are

visual). You will be able to use 2 Jammers and a Turbo during the event. You

will need to outrun a pair of Ford GTs that are able to use Spike Strips. Save

your Turbo for a long straight after the cops have been dispatched.

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish 3rd

Just like the description says, this is basically a drag race. You will be

driving at Top Speed for good portion of the race, so Nitrous won't be as

effective. After getting of the highway, you will come to a three-way

intersection. Pay attention to any traffic that may be turning, so as not to

hit them and possibly wreck.

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You will have 3 EMPs, Jammers, Spike Strips, and 2 Turbos to help you escape

from the cops, who brought their full artillery, as well. The cops will also

begin to hunt in pairs. After earning Bronze in this event, as well as the

other Super Series events, Exotic events become available.

The roads you go down for this event should be very familiar by now, especially

if you have gone through both Careers. I would avoid taking any shortcuts, they

will slow you down too much. 

Event 6: Highway Battle

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Hyper Series

Time of Day: 10:00 AM

Weather: Clear

You have topped the Seacrest most wanted list and there's nothing the cops

won't do to stop you. Expect their lastest unit, armed to the teeth.

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (3,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

This is the perfect event to rack up Oncoming and Top Speed miles since this

no traffic so you can stay in Oncoming, earn Nitrous, and reach top speed and

stay there as long as you can.

Bronze (4,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

You are limited to the three cars mentioned in the description. The other

entirely on the highway, and near the end you will probably be driving at top

speed for the last 2 miles or so. If you bring a Midnight Blue Metallic Ford GT

will earn the "Midnight Cowboy" Reward for doing so. 

Event 5: Faster Than Light

Event Type: Race

Hyper Series

require that you drift through them to make it through in one piece. Try and

build up your boost and save it for any long straight you encounter. The AI may

seem like it is able to go into and come out of any turn at 200+ MPH.

Event Distance: 6.4 miles

Gold (8,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You are only able to use the Maserati GranCabrio and Alfa Romeo 8c Spider,

which you probably won't have unlocked the first time through. You will have 2

Spike Strips and 4 EMPs to use. This event is structured like a Duel, so there

is no 3rd place, but since the cops are present, it is a Hot Pursuit.

Event 2: Shock and Awe

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

The lastest weather reports indicate a storm brewing over the desert;

electrical activity has been forecast.

you drive it from the sands of Mission Beach, along Hope Canyon Freeway, and

into the desert?

Event Distance: 11.4 miles

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:45.00

After driving along the coast, you will be dumped onto the freeway, which gives

you a good chance to build up speed. You will then wind up on the open roads of

the desert. There won't be many cars, so feel free to stay in Oncoming as long

as you can, to build up Nitrous and reach top speed. If you happen to crash,

you can still earn Gold as long as you haven't let off the gas. 

Event 4: Twin Turbo

Time of Day: 7:00 PM

Beach.

Event Distance: 10.8 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd 

This course starts out easy, but then gets more technical, and for that reason,

I would recommend the McLaren. Because it is a lot smaller than the Bentley, it

is able to get in and out of drifts better, and it is more maneuverable than

the Bentley

Time of Day: 3:00 PM

Weather: Wet

Porsche invite you test drive the stunning 911 GT3 RS. With more power, greater

Silver (5,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:10.00

Bronze (2,500 Bounty): Finish in under 3:30.00

For anyone who has already gone through the Cop Career, the first half of this

course should seem familiar from the Corvette ZR1 Preview. When driving through

the forest, go to the left when the road splits so you can build up Nitrous by

driving in Oncoming. As you get closer to the finish, there will be a couple

shortcuts along the side of the road that are useful.

be able to use EMPs, Spikes and Roadblocks. Their upgraded equipment includes

Level 2 Roadblocks, which use stronger stationary vehicles, as well as Level 2

them, so watch for the it hovering a feet yards above the road. There are only

4 of you again so you will receive a medal as long as you aren't last.

German precision engineering in this mountain duel. 

Event Distance: 12.5 miles

Gold (12,500 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (8,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You get to pick between the Porsche Carrera GT or the Aston Martin One-77. Your

opponent will take most of the shortcuts available, whether or not you want to

take them is up to you. There is almost no traffic present in this event; I

think that I saw maybe 3 cars, so there is a very little chance of wrecking by

hitting a car. 

Event 5: Glorious Fourth

Event Distance: 6.8 miles

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You will most likely be stuck with the Mercedes-Benz your first time through.

Because the roads are wet, be careful when weaving in and out of traffic. This

race will take place on the highway so you will be holding steady around top

speed for a good portion of the race

Event 2: Heart to Heart

Time of Day: 4:00 AM

The same 5.2 litre V10 is used in both the Audi R8 5.2 Fsi Quattro and the

convertible supercars go head-to-head along these breathtaking coastal roads

Event Distance: 10.1 miles

Gold (10,000 Bounty): Finish 1st

Silver (6,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

You probably won't encounter much traffic so you can hang in Oncoming as long

as you want. I would recommend using the Gallardo, since it can accelerate

faster and reach a higher top speed than the Audi. 

Event 3: Breaking Point

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Silver (30,000 Bounty): Finish 2nd

Bronze (15,000 Bounty): Finish 3rd

Due to the massive distance of this race, the Bounty Rewards have skyrocketed.

You will want to try and keep up with the middle group, because the Bugatti is

most likely to fly way ahead of the rest of the pack. Everyone will be playing

rough, so expect to get thrashed around. Stay off of any unpaved shortcuts;

they will severely hamper your time and pretty much anyone behind you will pass

you.

event. Jammers will be used against you. This racer likes to take shortcuts and

will pull a U-turn, so Roadblocks will only be effective if there are no

shortcuts entrances near their location and he doesn't turn around.

The course is wet, so it may be a little slippery while driving. You will want

to take a few shortcuts. There are two shortcuts early on that will be very

helpful: One cuts through an industrial area on the right and the other is a

paved corner-cutter on the left, not too far after the industrial one

Due to the storms in this event, you will get a little "atmospheric" lighting

from time to time. For some reason, this one seems a little tougher than other

night races, probably because everything blends in so it is a little harder to

see. Stick to the main road; you'll be able to keep up your speed, plus it is

very hard to even find the beginnings of the shortcuts on this course.

Time of Day: 6:00 PM

Seacrest County PD has just taken delivery of the Aston Martin One-77. It's the

world's most expensive production sports car, so drive safe. You'll pick up

time penalties for hitting anything.

Merit (4,000 Bounty): Finish in under 2:01.00

Pass (2,000 Bounty): Finish in under 2:24.00

For those who played the demo, this course is basically just part of the demo

course backwards. This car won't hold its speed well in the shortcuts, so it

isn't recommended to take them. Just stick to the main road and try not to hit

anything. Also, save your Nitrous for long straights, since this car can easily

break 200 MPH when a full Nitrous bar is used all at once.

Event 3: Hang Tough

Event Type: Interceptor

Rapid Deployment Unit

Time of Day: 8:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Extreme caution is advised when dealing with this escaped convict. He will do

anything to avoid being sent back to Seacrest Penitentiary. 

Distinction (10,000 Bounty): Bust the racer in under 3:00.00

Merit (6,000 Bounty): Bust the racer in under 4:00.00

Pass (3,000 Bounty): Bust the racer

You will have no weapons available for this event, and neither does he, so you

will have to play rough to bring him down. Whenever he goes into a turn, try

and aim straight for him, if you hit him, you can knock off a few chunks of

health.

Event 1: Fighting Dirty

Event Type: Interceptor

Traffic Police Unit

Time of Day: 10:00 AM

Weather: Rain

Leave the road and hit the dirt to make the arrest. Your vehicle has been

equipped with Spike Strips. Make them count.

Distinction (6,000 Bounty): Bust the driver in under 2:00.00

Merit (4,000 Bounty): Bust the driver in under 3:00.00

Pass (2,000 Bounty): Bust the driver

In this event, you will have 5 Spike Strips with which to work. This racer

won't slow down like the one in 'Block Buster', but he will take any shortcut

he can. Try and deal as much damage as you can to him and get him down to one

or two health blocks left, then pull ahead of him and drop a Spike Strip to end

the chase.

Event 2: More Haste, Less Speed

Event Type: Rapid Response

Highway Patrol Unit

Time of Day: 9:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Let's see how fast you can respond to an emergency. Race east on Bear Hollow,

but drive carefully-you'll incur time penalties for anything you hit.

Event Distance: 7.6 miles

Distinction (8,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:03.00

Merit (5,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:18.00

Pass (2,500 Bounty): Finish in under 3:56.00

Just like the Rapid Response in the Aston Martin, you will probably want to

stick to the main road and use Nitrous whenever you come to a long straight. If

you do this, only drift through the turns that appear as 90-degree turns. These

turns will almost always have diagonal lines on the outside of the turns. For

all the other turns, most of the cars will be able to take them at speed, or

they will naturally slow down on their own. If you choose to take a few

shortcuts, most of them connect to another or are lengthy themselves, so you

will be going a little slower than the main road, but some can be beneficial,

depending on your car.

Event 3: Contact Sport

Event Type: Rapid Response

Special Response Unit

Time of Day: 3:00 AM

Weather: Thunderstorm

be slick because this time it is actually raining, so watch your drifting.

and Highway Patrol events will become available after completing this event, as

well as any remaining Traffic Police events. 

Event 2: Locking On 

Event Type: Interceptor

The SCPD has seized a shipment of illegal EMP hardware but some units may still

have evaded capture.

Distinction (10,000 Bounty): Bust the racer in under 2:30.00

Merit (6,000 Bounty): Bust the racer in under 3:30.00

Pass (3,000 Bounty): Bust the racer

You will only have 2 Roadblocks and Spike Strips to use during this event. The

Lamborghini you get to chase has the ability to use EMPs should you wind up in

front of him. If he begins locking on to you, you can either hit the brakes or

drop a Spike Strip. If you try and slow down to avoid the EMP, he will also

slow down to try and stay behind you. If he is locking on to you and hits your

Spike Strip, you will earn the "Power Spike" Trophy or .

Event 3: Guided Missile

Event Type: Rapid Response

Rapid Deployment Unit

Time of Day: 6:00 AM

Weather: Clear

Fast police response times require skill, speed, and precision driving. Respond

to the emergency and head west on the South Bay Turnpike. Damage to the car

will add time penalties, so be careful out there.

Merit (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 4:30.00

Pass (3,000 Bounty): Finish in under 5:15.00

This entire event will take place along the Turnpike, so you will have plenty

of room, you just need to avoid all of the traffic. If you are having a hard

time seeing the taillights, jump into the oncoming lane and look for the

headlights. 

Event 4: Coming in Hot

Event Type: Rapid Response

Rapid Deployment Unit

Time of Day: 7:00 PM

Weather: Clear

Get your car to the north end of Oakmont Valley ASAP. Watch out for traffic and

stay tight through the bends-you'll incur time penalties for anything you hit.

Merit (6,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:09.00

Pass (3,000 Bounty): Finish in under 3:34.00

This course starts out fine but then becomes a bit of a pain, with two

360-degree turns. By about halfway, the sun has set, so it becomes a little

harder to see any obstacles in front of you, not that is was very easy before.

Event 5: Heavy Hitters

Event Type: Hot Pursuit

Six fast, aggressive suspects must be brought to heel before they reach the end

Pass (4,000 Bounty): Bust 4 racers

You almost have no choice but to fight the racers in this event; you will only

be able to use 1 of each weapon, so make them count. The racers will have no

weapons to use against you, making the pursuit a little easier. Just avoid the

traffic and the Helicopter's Spike Strips, if you choose to call it in.

Merit (5,000 Bounty): Finish in under 1:49.00

Pass (2,500 Bounty): Finish in under 2:11.00

You will take control of a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 for this event. This car

isn't able to cleanly handle most of the turns on the course, so you may need

to drift or let off the gas a little more than normal. This car can easily pass

200 MPH, even without using Nitrous, due to the elevation changes, so save

Nitrous only for long straights. Whether or not you want to utilize any of the

shortcuts is up to you; I was able to earn Distinction without using any, but I

hit the walls a couple times

Event 2: Under Pressure

pursuit going.

There aren't many shortcuts worth taking (or any to begin with), but there are

plenty of long straights, perfect for Burnouts. Try and stick to the middle of

the road, it is easier to follow the yellow divider and you will be able to

react easier to any traffic you approach.

if you can guess which way he will turn, you can nail him when he does and take

out a decent chunk. Also if you can happen to pin him for about 3 to 5 seconds,

the pursuit will end, regardless of his health, and this may be one of the only

Pass (5,000 Bounty): Bust the racer 

You will be able to call on 3 Roadblocks and Spike Strips, and 2 Helicopters to

help bring the racer down. He will use Jammers, Spike Strips, and pull U-turns

whenever the situation seems bad for him. 

===================

NFSHP4. Event Types

===================

There are many events to take part in in Seacrest County. Each event is either

specific to the Racer or Cop Careers, with the exception of Hot Pursuits, which

are available to both sides. 

Hot Pursuit

-----------

Hot Pursuits aren't specific to either side of Career, but the objectives for

each side differ. In the Cop Career, you will need to Bust as many racers as

you can, using any means available, before they reach the finish line. You will

be the only Cop chasing the racers; the only other time you would see other

Cops would be if you call in a Roadblock. The more racers you bust, the better

the rewards. In the Racer Career, you will need to make it to the finish line.

You can take out the other racers if you feel the need to. In both Racer and

Cop Hot Pursuits, you will receive 500 Bounty for wrecking a Cop or busting a

Racer, as well as having your Nitrous refilled. 

Time Trial

----------

Time Trials are only found in the Racer Career. In Time Trials, you will need

to race to the finish line as fast as you can. The faster you reach the finish,

the better the rewards. Look for shortcuts as they can help to possibly shave a

few seconds off your time. 

Rapid Response

--------------

Rapid Responses are only in the Cop Career, and are equivalent to Time Trials.

There is one twist to Rapid Responses: Time Penalties. Time Penalties will be

instantly added to your time, as opposed to being added up and added on at the

end. For any wall hit, you will have 2 seconds added to your time. Riding the

walls is not advised as you will keep incurring the penalty. You will also

receive a 3-second penalty for hitting any of the traffic cars. If you hit one

and wreck, you will not have 3 seconds added, but the time it takes you to

reset may seem to make up for it. 

Race

----

Races are specific to the Racer Career. As with any Race anywhere, the idea is

to finish first. The Cops will never appear during these events, which is a bit

of a change from previous games that featured Cops

Interceptor

-----------

Interceptors are only found in the Cop Career. In these events, you will have

to chase down one car. You will be able to use anything available to take him

down, but the farther you go, the more they will do anything to try and escape

from you, such as use a Jammer and pull a U-turn.

Duel

----

In Duels, you will only have a choice of two cars. Whichever car you choose to

use, your opponent will use the one that you chose not to use. Duels are

specific to the Racer Career.

Gauntlet

--------

Gauntlet events are only found in the Racer Career. In these events, you will

be on your own, trying to survive the Cops and outlast the clock.

Preview

-------

Preview events are featured early on in both Careers. These events will allow

you to test drive some of the more powerful cars. Preview events are basically

Time Trials and Rapid Responses, depending on which side of the Career you are

on, under a different name. For Cop Previews, since they are still

(technically) Rapid Responses, you will still have time added on for anything

that you hit. 

===============

NFSHP5. Weapons

===============

Each side of the Career will have their own Weapons to use. At first, you won't

be able to use weapons until you have passed or earned Bronze in the first

event they are featured in. In those events, you will only be able to use that

weapon. Before each event, you will be shown how many of each weapon you will

have available to use during the event. As you get more successful hits with

each weapon, they get upgraded. They are upgraded once you reach the Phase 2

and Phase 3 Milestones, listed in the next section

Jammer

------

Jammers are one of the Racer weapons. To activate it, press Right on the D-Pad.

When a Jammer is active, the cops will be unable to use weapons. Their mini-map

will also be down for a short period of time while their systems reboot.

Jammers will also allow to see any Roadblocks ahead of you that the Cops have

set up. As you upgrade this weapon, the time that the effects last increases.

The first event that you are able to use Jammers in is 'Shock and Awe'

Spike Strip

-----------

Both Cops and Racers are able to use Spike Strips. Spike Strips drop out of the

back of your car, so when you have someone coming up behind you, line them up

in your rear-view mirror and drop one and watch them spin. To drop Spike

Strips, press Down on the D-Pad. Anyone can run over Spike Strips, whether a

Racer or Cop dropped them. Cop Spikes will have blue lights; Racer Spikes will

have red lights. As you upgrade them by getting hits, they will deploy quicker

and once they reach Level 3, two Strips will be deployed at once. The first

time you are able to use Spike Strips are 'Breach of the Peace' (Racer) and

'Fighting Dirty' (Cop)

EMP

---

Just like Spike Strips, both Cops and Racers can use an EMP. To activate an

EMP, press Left on the D-Pad. EMPs need to lock-on to a target before they can

be fired. The car that you lock-on to is whichever one is directly ahead of

you, so every now and again you'll end up locking-on to a car you didn't want

to. If you take too long to lock-on to a car, or if the one you are targeting

gets too far ahead of you, the EMP will fail to hit. As a Racer, you can use

Jammer, which make the Cops unable to continue locking-on to you and the EMP

will be dodged. A common tactic Racers will use is to activate a Jammer and

then begin locking-on with an EMP, making it harder for a Cop to avoid it. As

the EMP is upgraded by hitting the target, it will lock-on quicker, and cause a

little extra damage. The first event you are able to use EMPs in are 'Denial of

Service' (Cop) and 'Beauty and the Beasts' (Racer).

Roadblock

---------

Roadblocks are a Cop-specific weapon. To call in a Roadblock, press Right on

the D-Pad. Roadblocks will be placed ahead of the Racer that is out in front.

Roadblocks will line-up Cop cars along the main road. If the Roadblock is

located at the beginning or end of shortcut, the Cops may partially block of

the Roadblock, but other than that, Roadblocks will never be located on

shortcuts. As you upgrade the Roadblock by having Racers run into one, stronger

vehicles will be used in the roadblock, which will cause more damage. The first

time you are able to use Roadblocks in 'Block Buster'

Turbo

-----

Turbos are a Racer-specific weapon. To activate a Turbo, press Up on the D-Pad.

When you use a Turbo, you will instantly receive a speed boost, allowing you to

quickly escape from the Cops. As you upgrade the Turbo system, the longer the

effects of the Turbo will increase. The first event to feature Turbos is

'Stampede'

Helicopter

----------

Helicopters are only available to Cops. To call in a Helicopter, press Up on

the D-Pad. Helicopters last longer than any of the other weapons. Helicopters

are useful for keeping escaping Racers within range and can help you take them

down. Helicopters are able to drop Spike Strips to damage or take out Racers.

Helicopters carry their own Spike Strips and do not rely on the amount that you

have. As you upgrade the Helicopter by having Racers hit the Spike Strips they

dropped, they last longer and have more Spike Strips available to drop. The

first event to feature Helicopter is 'Eye in the Sky'

==================

NFSHP6. Milestones

==================

As you progress through the Careers, you will periodically hit certain

Milestones. There are Milestones specifically for the Cop Career, the Racer

Career, and for either Career that can be completed in both Careers (sort of).

When you complete one, a notice will pop-up at the bottom of the screen,

telling you which one you completed and how much Bounty you earned as a reward.

The Bounty reward will be applied to whichever Career you are in when you hit

the Milestone. Each Milestone has 4 different Reward points. If an event is

restarted, all stats accumulated in the event are not added to your totals. All

totals listed are running totals.

Phase 1: +1,000 Bounty

Phase 2: +2,500 Bounty

NFSHP7A. PS3 Trophies

=====================

There are 51 Trophies available

Bronze Trophies (38)

--------------------

1. Settling the Score: Beaten a Friends Autolog Recommendation

Before every event, Autolog will pick one of your friend's times. If you beat

the time that the Autolog recommended, this Trophy will pop-up at the end of

the event.

2. Graffiti: Written on the Wall

When you have beaten an Autolog Recommendation or place 1st on your Speedwall,

which is where the Autolog pulls the times that it recommends, after the event,

when you go back to the map, a pop-up will appear asking if you wish to write

on the Wall. Click on Yes and the Trophy will appear.

3. Share the Dream: Shared a Dreamshot

A Dreamshot is any picture that you take. You can take a Dreamshot at any time

during an event by pressing the R3 button. Go to the Main Menu and select the

"Photos" option. Select any photo and upload it. 

4. Socialite: 5 or more NFS Friends

All you need are 5 people on your Friends list that have played this game. If

you need to find a few more friends, Autolog can recommend friends to add to

help you reach 5. 

5. Gotcha!: First Racer Bust

These next few Trophies are specific to the Cop Career. To Bust a Racer, you

must lower their vehicles health to 0, any way possible. You will get this

Trophy by finishing 'Chase 101', the first Cop event. The racer will already

have half of his health gone, so take out the rest and the Trophy will appear

after the event has finished.

Response Unit. By busting all the racers in one of those events, you can earn

up 20,000 Bounty each time (15,000 for Distinction and about 5,000 for driving

skills and busting racers).

a Cop and this will unlock after the 10th.

15. Bounty Hunter: Played 10 Online Interceptors as a Cop

When you play online, your team is randomly selected. Finish 10 Interceptors as

time (15,000 for Gold and about 5,000 for driving skills and wrecking cops).

23. Fugitive: Wanted Level is Fugitive

Fugitive is Rank 17. To get there, you need to earn 1,550,000 Racer Bounty. By

25. Festival of Speed: Played 10 Online Races

Self-explanatory. The Trophy will pop-up after finishing the 10th Race

26. Race: Played 10 Online Hot Pursuits as a Racer

When you play online, your team is randomly selected. Finish 10 Hot Pursuits as

a Racer and this will unlock after the 10th.

When you play online, your team is randomly selected. Finish 10 Interceptors as

a Cop and this will unlock after the 10th. 

28. Burnout: Used a full Nitrous Bas without hitting anything

This can be done in either Career. Wait until the Nitrous Bar is filled and

until you come to a long straight. Use all of the Nitrous at once and the

Trophy will pop-up shortly after

29. Wall of Steel: Successful use of a Roadblock

You can only get this playing as a Cop. To get this one, you need to call in a

Roadblock and at least 1 of the Racers need to hit it. The Roadblock units will

usually tell you if one of the Racers hit it. The first event you are able to

use Roadblocks in is 'Block Buster'

30. Shock to the System: Successful use of EMP

You can get this Trophy by playing as a Racer or a Cop, since both are able to

use this weapon. To get it, you need hit a Cop or a Racer using the EMP. The

first events featuring this weapon are 'Denial of Service' (Cop) and 'Beauty

and the Beasts' (Racer).

31. Hit Confirmed: Successful use of Spike Strip

This Trophy can also be earned on either side of Career. To get this, you need

to have a Cop or a Racer hit a Spike Strip you dropped. The first events that

allow you to use Spike Strips are 'Breach of the Peace' (Racer) and 'Fighting

Dirty' (Cop).

32. Aerial Assistance: Successful use of Helicopter

This Trophy is only available on the Cop side of Career. To get this one, you

need to have a Racer hit a Spike Strip that was laid by the Helicopter. If the

hit doesn't Bust them, it will say "Aerial Hit Confirmed" on the screen; if it

does, it will cut away to the Racer running over the Spike Strip and spinning.

The first event that has Helicopters is 'Eye in the Sky'.

33. Denied: Successful use of Jammer

This Trophy is only available playing as a Racer. Jammers will temporarily

render Cops unable to use weapons, as well as knocking out their mini-map. It

is also useful if a Cop is targeting you with an EMP, as it will cut their

weapon and they will no longer be able to target you

34. In the Zone: Successful use of Turbo

This Trophy is only available playing as a Racer. Turbo will give you an

instant boost of speed, which will allow you to get away from any Cops trying

to take you out

35. Eye of the Needle: As a Racer drove through a Roadblock without hitting it

As it says, you need to be a Racer to get this Trophy. This is easier to get

earlier on, before the Cops upgrade their Roadblocks. There will be a spot

between two of the cars that is just a barricade. Drive through it and the

Trophy will pop-up shortly after

36. Share the Joy: Shared a Dreamshot of a BMW with your Friends

This one can be earned at the same time as "Share the Dream". You can use a

Dreamshot of a BMW to earn both at the same time, but if you already have

"Share the Dream", do the same thing, except make sure that there is BMW in the

shot. It is easier if you are driving the BMW

37. Shaken, Not Stirred: Won a Hot Pursuit in an Aston Martin

This can be done in either Career. If you choose to do it as a Racer, you will

have to finish first. If you choose to do it as a Cop, Bust all the Racers. You

will need to be in at least the Super Series events or Rapid Deployment Unit

events

38. Wet in the Vette: Drove a Corvette in the Wet

Somewhat self-explanatory. Once you have a Corvette unlocked, pick any event

that it is either raining or wet in it, which is signified by 3 Drops as the

weather. The Trophy will pop-up once you finish the event.

Silver Trophies (10)

--------------------

1. Ultimate Enforcer: Promoted to Ultimate Enforcer

Ultimate Enforcer is Rank 20, and to get there, you will need to rack up

2,000,000 Cop Bounty. You will have to go back and redo events to earn the

Bounty necessary. I would recommend Hot Pursuits, since you can earn upwards of

20,000 per Distinction

2. Most Wanted: Wanted Level is Most Wanted

Most Wanted is Rank 20, and to get there, you will need to rack up 2,000,000

Racer Bounty. You will have to go back and redo events to earn the Bounty

necessary. I would recommend 'Seacrest Tour', due to it's length, you can rack

up a hefty chunk of Bounty.

3. Power Spike: Spike Strip hit a car who was targeting you with an EMP

This one is somewhat self-explanatory. You just have to make sure that the car

that hits the Spike Strip was the one targeting you with the EMP. On occasion,

multiple cars may target you at once, making it a little easier to get the hit

since you have an extra target to aim for. This can be done in either Career.

4. Imprezive: Accumulate 2,000 yards of drift in a single event using the

Subaru Impreza WRX STI 

This can be done in either Career. In the Cop Career, I would recommend

'Lightning Reflex'. In the Racer Career, I would recommend 'Title Fight'

5. Flight of the Bumblebee: Won 'Muscle Reflex' in a Bee Yellow Chevrolet

Camaro SS

Muscle Reflex is the first Performance Series event that you will do after

unlocking Performance Series events. The Bee Yellow paint color is the second

choice from the left. Win the race and the Trophy will pop-up afterwards.

6. Godzilla: Get any medal in 'Run to the Hills' driving the Nissan GT-R SpecV

without using weapons

You will first need to earn 543,000 Cop Bounty to unlock this car. Once you

have, go to East Gorge Canyon and start 'Run to the Hills'. Take down at least

4 racers without using any weapons at all, and this Trophy will pop-up at the

end

7. Iron Man: Get Distinction in a Hot Pursuit, Interceptor, and Rapid Response

using the Audi R8.

The Audi R8 is the last car in the Rapid Deployment Unit that you will unlock,

at 843,000 Cop Bounty. You will then need to earn Distinction in one of each of

the three Cop event types. The only Rapid Deployment Hot Pursuit that the Audi

R8 can compete in is 'Run to the Hills'

8. Electrically Charged: Bust the Porsche 918 Spyder using an EMP in 'Porsche

Patrol' 

'Porsche Patrol' is one of the first Rapid Deployment events you will do. The

918 Spyder will most likely be the last car that you bust. The 918 Spyder is a

grey car that will have the exhaust pipes on the side of the car. You have 6

EMPs in that event so the simple solution would be to rough everyone up and

take them all out with an EMP

9. Snakebite in Black: Spike a Cop while driving a Black Dodge Viper SRT10 ACR

or Ford Shelby GT500 Supersnake

Relatively straight-forward, all you have to do is Spike a Cop in a Hot Pursuit

while driving one of the listed cars painted black. The GT500 Supersnake is a

Super Series car and the Viper SRT10 ACR is an Exotic Series car.

10. Midnight Cowboy: Dreamshot a Midnight Blue Metallic Ford GT at night in the

desert.

The Ford GT is one of the earlier-unlocked Exotic cars. Once you get to the

event 'Born in the USA', pick the Ford GT, with the Midnight Blue Metallic

paint job (second choice from left), and then take a picture of it during the

event. 

Gold Trophies (2)

-----------------

1. True Blue: Earn Distinction in every single-player Cop mission

Self-explanatory. There are 48 Cop events across the five vehicle classes

2. Golddigger: Earn a Gold Medal in every single-player Racer event

Self-explanatory. There are 60 Racer events across the five vehicle classes
