![]() ![]() The cars you drive have a health bar so you see how much more damage you can take. Bumpers come off, windshields crack, mirrors break, the body gets scratched after you scrape against the side of another car, the works. It’s not quite as extensive as you find in some console games but the basics are all here. This adds a touch of realism to the game as cars no longer look like they strolled out of a showroom even after hitting a tree at 200mph. One of Most Wanted’s most impressive features is basic vehicular damage for the cars. The other racers are breaking as many laws as you are but the cops only have eyes for your car as if it has ‘FREE DONUTS INSIDE’ written on its side. ![]() I have never understood the logic behind this, which has been the same since the original game. The cops in Most Wanted are so relentless that they are often the reason you lose a race because they hold you back while everyone else is free to go. It takes a bit away from the health of your car but it’s not the show stopper that it was in the original 2005 game. You slow down a bit but you can still continue if nothing happened. These are harder to avoid, particularly at high speeds and unless you are careful you will drive over them.įortunately, the damage that happens to your car is minimal. When things get out of hands the cops will deploy spike strips on the road while the cars are moving, similar to the way they did in Hot Pursuit (Most Wanted had stationary strips fixed to the road). Yes, the infamous spike strips from the original Most Wanted makes an appearance here and the cops are not afraid to use them. But their best trick is using the spike strip. They bring out faster cars to take you down and you will have multiple cars on your tail at times. ![]() At times they also drive in front of you and brake to slow you down.Īs you unlock more races, the police opposition gets tougher. They also try to pin you to the side of the road to slow you down. Their most popular trick is to tap the rear corner of your car, which at high speeds, is enough for your car to fishtail out of control. Their sole objective is to stop you and they’ll do anything to make that happen. These are some of the most ruthless opponents that you will find in any game. In every level you will have cops to give you company, along with other drivers. Ultimately, it’s the medal that counts, not the race positions. So, for example, you may win the race but if you did not finish within a specified time you will still get a bronze medal. ![]() These medals are at times separate from the actual race results. Depending upon how you do, you get gold, silver or bronze medals. In one type of race, you need to have an average speed above a specific value. A variant of that involves taking as little damage to your car as possible otherwise you get penalized with extra seconds added to your time. In some races, you have to finish the race before a specified time. Checkpoint races make you go around the track reaching checkpoints before the timer runs out. You have the simple races where you have to come first to win. You can of course go back to playing the unlocked events, of which there are plenty. Defeat all the ten racers on that list and you beat the game. After a handful of regular events, you will get to race against one of the blacklist members. As you win more races, more events get unlocked. You have a map where race events appear for you to play. The new one is somewhat similar although for the mobile version, the open world has been dropped. The story of the game involved competing against expert drivers from a blacklist and racing to the top to get your car back. The original Most Wanted included open world racing combined with frantic cop chases. ![]()
