Hello all,

I'm kinda new to this game. Just wondering if there's any turbo or boost features in this game? Like using nitrous in Need For Speed. If there is, how do i activate them and is it use-able in story modes?

many thanks! smile.gif

No nitrous, since this isn't NFS or FnF, and there's FAQs to read https://idforums.net/index.php?showtopic=42768
this game rely heavily on your techniques not the car's spec.

Technically there *is* a Turbo, and technically there *is* a boost.

Since, you know, half of the cars are Turbocharged by default and we get faster as we drift.

And yeah. *Those* features are usable in Story mode, as well as all other modes of play.

First of all, are you referring to ID5 or ID6AA?

No, there is not one in the traditional "press a button" and get faster like Ridge Racer or anything.

If your talking about ID6AA:

Every time you actually drift in this game to the point where the word "DRIFT" near your tachometer turns gold, you get a speed boost after the drift that will last a short while. Using this feature is integral in being fast. A blue "DRIFT" won't do, you need to get gold if you want the speed boost.

That would be Battles.
Against another player, you may choose to hold the brakes down during the loading screen. Doing this results in boost off, which means the battle no longer has any assistance for the chaser.

One you leave Boost On, it takes effect when you are behind. Your acceleration increases until you get within a certain distance of the opponent.

Also, it should be noted that both players need to agree to off the Boost if you want to play without Boost by holding the brake when the Boost selection is prompted making the thing turn blue with the word "OFF" in display. If only one player holds the brake then the battle will be boost "ON".
