I find that this super grip technique throws you off the road whenever there is a bump or change in elevation. On flat surfaces it has worked flawlessly thus far.
I hope someone tells KuruHS he's been having his jimmies rustled by this since the beginning so much that he's advocating for the removal of this mechanic
@@MenkoDany people complain the old NFS games are better when they complain about a game mechanic that was literally in the old games. In the original NFS most wanted, you could use the nos around corners for maximum grip all the time. It was an in game tip. Lol
It also pushes your car forward in the direction it's facing, no matter what. So you can cancel drifts with it, which allows you to take very sharp turns.
Criterion purposely made this game as arcadey as it could by making the skill-gap as "how much you could gain and use burst Nitrous wisely". And I fucking loved it.
Something of note: Any time your car gets even a slight whiff of air, turning input gets interrupted until you have all four wheels on the ground again. The two examples of sudden oversteer at 1:40 both have this, with the first having a slight rise that you can barely lose ground contact on and the second occurring during a curb hop.
i've noticed this in that one harlow drift zone and any other courses where you have to turn after a jump. Game fun but handling model is inconsistent.
@@beat-man5167 Well if your wheels don't touch the ground. The result should be loss of control. There are a few cars I will lose control for no reason whatsoever. The eclipse is a prime example. I've had a couple time it just suddenly turns and you can't control it afterwards.
@@IamJay02 Not every car is like that though. Some have better grip than others. Although it wouldn't make sense to maintain control if your wheels aren't touching the floor. So that isn't a mechanic but rather common sense.
@@oscarfunez3806 It's a arcade need for speed game it isn't supposed to make sense. That super grip oversteer shit looks so annoying to deal with when you're in a high intensity race while trying not to fuck up.
The yellow nitro, apart from making the car go quicker, decreases the turning radius while keeping the current speed and also making the car somewhat immovable (maybe its also adding weight temporarily?). Let's say the above is true, then the reason you are getting these "super grip moments" is probably because you were activating said nitro on a turn you were making quite comfortably already. I think.. 😅
nice to see nfsmw '05 has the best grip handling to date cuz the tires move as quick as your inputs and the wheels had better turning angle, but just like the other nfs that came out ill buy it since its on sale n problly play it for like 3 days n dip
Too bad that every time I try to use burst nos in corners, some random pebble is in my racing line and totally breaks the physics. Thanks Ghost physics
He beat a broken/OP Pista in a B class race, something that you can only manage in this race since it's a speed race, and the pista has good 0-60, but top speed limited to 128 if I'm not wrong. Only ISAD can do this.
Yeah I pretty much used this concept with drifting and won 21 races in a row online. Just use NOS to snap out of drift and keep insane speed. I lost when I decided to do a circuit race against a bunch of grip cars lol
Also understanding amount of grip you have on your car. To avoid boosting out of the pavement, try to tilt your stick the opposite way of your drift. But becareful on how hard you push it against. And also you have to use your own judgement on how long you’re tilting your stick against the drift. This game is so technical, I love it.
yup, i was happy when i realized this was a thing in Unbound. I used to abuse the sh*t outta this back in NFS undercover and Carbon, too. I think it even worked on The Run. Also, my friend taught me this nifty little trick, but you can go full speed towards a hairpin turn, and as long as you have a boost ready, you can drift, and once you car is facing towards the exit, hit the boost and it'll pretty much ignore physics and launch your car in a straight line out the exit.
I think I know why in some situations the cars turn too far and you run off the track. Now I'm not 100% positive. But I'm mostly sure after watching it a couple times, that it happens because you hit the nos and then you jump from the curb to the street or make a jump at all, and the game makes you slide for a second when you come down which makes you turn a bit cause you're turning into the turn instead of counter steering which you'd normally do. So when it's done sliding for the 1 sec you catch your super grip again and then jet off. Now once again I'm not 100% sure that's why it happens. But that's just what it seems like to me.
I've noticed that the Eclipse may very well be a contender for A+ if handled correctly. We will have to wait and see with competitive communities doing testing.
Eclipse is very slow, not enough acceleration. The game's performance class favors top speed a lot. The eclipse has a top speed of 200mph in A+ which is way too much. The average top speed of A+ class builds is 160-180mph.
@IsuckAtDriving I noticed you tried getting around that through having more accel stats by reducing the gear count, and probably putting more power and better tires on.
OK OK I NEED to know, at 2:08 did you add Quantum Singularity from NFS High Stakes or is that part of Unbound's soundtrack... High Stakes was my childhood and I love that OST so much
This kinda reminds me of SRB2K's drift boost mechanic. When you drift spark boost in SRB2K, you get 100% full control of your kart for about a second which allows you make any adjustments to your turn, unlike Mario Kart where that boost is sending you forward for a second.
OMG! @1:46 this happens to me soo much when driving the Exige & Viper. Between this, racing line traffic, left behind pileups and rammers, honestly don't make an effort to win races anymore.
You can turn off any inputs that make your car drift in the tuning tab of that car. Maybe that will solve the issue when you get shot off? Because from the looks of it it seems to come from firing after engaging a drift.
With all the tunes that I’ve seen from ISAD, he turns off Drift entry entirely and turns on traction control so I don’t that’s the reason could just be the physics themselves from the suspension bottoming out and losing traction
To avoid traction loss improve the relation between grip, downforce and steering sensitivity. Slightly reducing steering sensitivity can help avoiding this occurence, specially at high speed turns. Still it will happen most of the time when going from road to other surfaces like paviment or dirt. Cars with offroad suspension and tires can avoid this effect, or control it better.
i like how they said that they changed the phsyics of drifting corners and not having fasty exit speeds when drifting a corner because its not realistic but then theres this haha
Didn't know about this. I thought it would work the same way Midnight Club did. That explains why my car would suddenly oversteer when I use the boost at the end of a grip turn.
I use the Volkswagen Golf in B class races with super grip and it's a beast. I don't know why everyone doesn't use super grip. Most people I race with just drift corners.
i dont play this game, but i hope they don't patch this out, seems like a fun and fair skill ceiling increase. if anything, they should just embrace it, patch out the slight airtime that throws you off on bumps, add a tutorial popup that tells you how to do this, and balance the singleplayer difficulty around it
I wonder that too. I think ISAD let's opponents get ahead and mess up, and then catches up to them. Plus some cars are impossible to perfect launch (Polestar 1 for me in S+ for example, its so slow off the line but pulls afterwards)
@@Sal12538 huh, I hadn't thought about that. There are alot of rammers in this game too so he probably avoids them as well when he does this. I should start doing this.
Grip and handling is the most important in every race, people should chose handling over top speed and even more acceleration. This video proves this 🤣
I tested this space high-tech technology and came to the conclusion that it is usually possible to lose traction during ultra acceleration on dirt or bumps (curb) which, in principle, has logic ..
Maybe avoid using it in corners, so things dont go wacky. Use it right before starting to turn since it boosts andprovides grip. Using it while already turning will do the same thing but since you're already turning you'll oversteer like crazy.
Normally we use NOS on the straights, but in NFS Unbound you use NOS to reduce understeer and corner faster
Exact same mechanic was prevelant in NFS Undercover but on a whole new level. You literally gained downforce from NOS😂
I love you for using the ultimate OG NFS music I forget the name of the game but I remember it from PS1 and ps2

@@Spherz almost same mechanic was even in NfS Most Wanted. Using NOS during speedbraker, for example

i appreciate the NFS high stakes back ground music lol brings back the childhood memories.
Yellow nos boost is the key to winning.
Cars that can more easily build it up can generally do better.

The reply on these comment never have fun playing video game lmao
same thing was in NFS Undercrover, where nitro gave you additional grip which allows to cornering sharp turns at 300+ km/h :D
Same with NFS Carbon. Use NOS in combination with the slow motion mechanic and you could pull off some insane turns.
