Is it worth it to prioritise any certain areas for their upgrade in each stage?

Czech Republic

Sorry for not replying, I must have overlooked it (I get a lot of notifications daily).

Upgrades are always given after a specific race win, so yes it's best to prioritize certain areas.

I looked at every race our god ewil did for his WR run besides the stacked deck territory since I haven't done that yet. I've written when to buy cars and when to buy parts after a certain race (pretty sure it's mirrored with ewils run but I'd need ewil himself to confirm that).

Here's my guide, but it needs to be reworked: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/19lldaPWQVaNu9p615twXVQNDm7K4OIuONbQ6x1IIMgo

I also have a map lying on my hdd with race order. That needs to be added to the guide as well.

Does that mean you do those races then the bosses at the very end?

Czech Republic

You always do bosses as soon as you unlock their races. If you don't, you might get a territory attack and you have to use the save/load trick. If that territory is already conquered, you just hit "Esc" and ignore the attack.

EDIT: Seems like I was wrong since the boss race always stay up even if you loose territories :)

if im not playing on the pc version should i reverse the numbers for the suspension in tuning guide? for example for elise instead of 333 should i put 111?

Bulgaria

Would be best to try both, but I assume it's still 333.

Does anyone know what the WCG Means in this game for Speedrunning? Cause, I wanted to give it a go. But, I don't know if I should do those runs or not? I am curious.

Czech Republic

@SpeedRunFan2022 Just check the rules for the category - it uses a "WCG" ruleset (WCG stands for World Cyber Games - a tournament that used to be held for various different games, including the Need for Speed franchise at one point, and we still use their rulesets to this day).

...but in a nutshell, for Carbon, it stands for no Z06/Audi and no NOS

Okay. I get it. Thank you so much @swoopthenoob I will keep that in mind when I am about to Speed Run Need For Speed: Carbon.

Can I use the Collector's Edition of the game on PS2 or does it have to be the Original Version of the game? Cause, I have the Collector's Edition of NFS: Carbon.

Bulgaria

Either works.

I do have another question as well. If you are doing the Game 100% Run... Does that mean that you have to complete the game, Challenge Series and the Reward Cards as well to go with it. Cause, that seems like it is going to be very very difficult to complete. But, if that is the case. Then, I may give it a go sometime in the future. And, one more thing as well if you are going to try to unlock the BMW M3 GTR. How do you unlock the 33 Cars Reward Cars the fastest. I do want to know. Cause, I have always wanted to get that car in the game and that is one of my favorite cars in the game.

I know this is a weird question for you Moderators. But, I have been practicing doing the Retiming the Runs using the YouTube Frame Timer and I hope I can be a Moderator for this game and I can get everyone's run perfect and get the Timing done as well. That would be amazing right there. Hope everyone can get this message. Hope it is not weird or different.

Romania

Hy, we appriciate your enthousiasme but you haven't been running the game or as far as we know don't play it actively. We require moderators to not only be able to retime runs but also have a certain amount of game knowledge, especially since this is one of the biggest and most popular game from the series. We also do sadly have to say that we deem that we have a sufficient amount of moderators to take care of the runs already.

Thanks for the question about Game 100%, noone realized there was no info about the objective, it has been added now. Goal is to get 100% in Career and beat all Challenge Series races (in any order), you don't need to do any reward cards (and that's impossible anyways since there are online cards too)

I get that Wortex. I understand that. I think I can get it done. I may not be possible for a long time. But, I might give it a go if I get the chance too. @wortex

Washington, USA

And, I totally understand that @goldenONX I understand that. I really get that. But, it is like as I said before I believe. If you are in need of a Moderator or a Verifier. I am always open to be a part of the team if you need me to. I will always be here to be a part of the team. I would not let you down either. I promise you that @goldenONX @wortex @Shiinyu @Lonne and many other Moderators who Moderate the Need For Speed Series. But, If you are in need of another one. Just, let me know and I will be more then gladly to be a member of the crew of Moderators. I would love that. I would look into more knowledge about the game as well and I would learn about it as well. I would do anything to be a Member of the Moderation Crew for this game and Most Wanted and Underground.
