Need for Speed - Rivals: The 5 best tips for beginners
With a few game tips, you can also really get started as a beginner at Need for Speed Rivals. Whether cop or racer - here you will find the five best tips for each career.
Need for Speed - Rivals: The Racer
It's not easy for a racer: you have to maintain your territory and beat other racers. As if that weren't enough, the cops are also sitting on your neck. But with simple tips you can lay the foundation for a successful racer career.
- It is important that you increase the multiplier. This quickly earns you the speedpoints you need to buy new cars and tracking upgrades. Turn up the multiplier if you win gold in "hot pursuits" or time trials. But you can also start an interceptor and destroy the cop - so you collect double points.
- Again and again you duel with other racers or are followed by cops. You should visit a workshop regularly so that you are not destroyed or arrested. Because then all of your speedpoints will be lost from the session.
- If the cops are stubbornly chasing you, get your speedpoints to safety. So in such a case, go to a hiding place. At a certain search level, it becomes increasingly difficult to escape the cops.
- With the Speedpoints you can buy new cars. But don't always waste your hard earned points on every racing car that is currently available. If you can drive a car very well, it is more worth upgrading it. You can give the cars several upgrades in the categories of robustness, strength, control, acceleration and top speed.
- Tracking technologies help you hinder other racers or cops. EMP, ESF or the shock wave are very suitable for this. However, you have to buy the equipment for every car.
Need for Speed - Rivals: The Enforcer
As a cop, it's your job to keep Redview Country’s streets safe. They arrest racers and stop illegal street races.
- As a cop, you get all cars for free if you have successfully completed speed lists. Still you need speedpoints. The quickest way to earn this is to arrest racers. For this, drive in the open world or start a "hot pursuit".
- The racers are very fast. To stop them, you should equip your police car with tracking technology. The EMP is very suitable for stopping and catching up fast racers. But also ESF or the shock ram help you to set the racers.
- Fast missions bring you quickly earned speed points as a cop. However, you have to be careful: every crash and every contact with vehicles or crash barriers is punished with penalty seconds. So here it is more a matter of driving a little more cautiously rather than racing ruthlessly.
- As a cop you have very robust vehicles, but it is important that you also visit the workshop - not only to prevent critical damage. This also charges your power-ups.
- The fastest way to create racers is to use tracking technologies and then strike. For example, use the EMP and ram the racer from behind or from the side. Sometimes as a cop you have so much speed that you overtake the racers. Turn by pulling the handbrake and doing a 180 degree turn. Try driving towards the racer head-on and stopping it with a crash.
