Burnout Paradise - General Discussion & Info / TROPHY HUNTERS WELCOME!

[quote name='StrandedBrit']This. Also just north of the west end of the bridge (driving south past the quarry entrance) is that stupidly big super jump. Barrel roll off that and it's an automatic 4x multiplier. And then if you make it through what pete said keep going up to the naval yard and go west across the beach.[/quote]

Yea I hit that sucker by accident. Got like a x6 multiplier!

Im down to 2 stunts. The last 2 are the furthest from the bridge... I dont know how Ill make it :lol:
 
they should make a download to allow the release of all cars, I haven't even downloaded the trophy pack becuase I don't want to go back and do all tha work again. Also, I'm not good at doing the stunt runs.
 
I just got a PS3 and one of the few games that have intrigued me has been Burnout. I don't particularly like racing games but with all the content that I keep hearing they add I feel that after LBP (won w/system) and Fallout (B.Fri sale) that perhaps Burnout should be my third game. I did recently hear that if you download the game you don't get all the content as opposed to having the disc. Is this true? I don't really care if I have to use the disc. I kinda prefer it actually but if I can't find it easily in stores can I get the same extras on the DL version or should I extend my looking radius?
 
The only thing you miss out on in the PSN version is the retail cars (which you put in via password, which isn't there). Everything else you get. Bikes, Challenges, etc. You get it all for free.

I don't like racing games, but I love Burnout Paradise.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']They put CrashTV on their site now instead of forcing you to go to itunes or find a normal download link in their forums?[/QUOTE]

Umm...I guess? :whistle2:s
Did you watch the video on there? That what I meant... ;)
 
I know what you meant. I was commenting on something I'd never seen on their new site. They stopped offering their podcast for free on their own site a while back and went iTunes exclusive.

So the De Lorean will be free then? Or is it just the Christmas video itself?
 
Oh okay, I see what you mean then.
IDK, I don't think it's going be free, but it was cool to finally see it in action. :]

...at least the video is free. :p
 
Sounds like the santa delorean will be free for a while then next year the regular one will be paid DLC from what I gather.

That's heavy.

Everyone knows Mr. Fusion only powers the flux capacitor. The engine still runs on gasoline.

Pretty sweet the boost effect is trails of fire from the tires.

Why don't you make like a tree and get outta' here?
 
The "santa" car isn't free...it's just a video of the car. That's what they say on criterions site....I could be wrong and maybe release it next week.

That's about as stupid as a screen door on a battleship.
 
They've unveiled 3 new Legendary Cars

I believe the first one's related to Nightrider (Although it doesn't look like the old one), and the other is the Dukes of Hazzard car, but the one I'm excited about is the Manhattan Spirit.

It's the Ghostbusters car. :O

[quote name='metaly']It's not "the Ghostbusters car."

It's the ECTO-1.

Come on now.[/quote]

Well see, unlike you, I decided to reach out to the mainstream audience with my naming of it.
 
To my surprise, I don't like the Carson Nighthawk... they should have made a new model car for the pretend Knight Rider car.
 
I think there is a major glitch or something. I can not choose anything besides race when i host a game on burnout paradise and i have the latest update. Is there something i am suppose to do or should i just redownload the patches?
 
When you host stuff online, you have to have at least one other person in the lobby in order to do Challenges.

EDIT: Something just popped in my head about the Carson Nighthawk. Criterion said with every Legendary Car, pushing the L3 button does something. They didn't say anything about what pushing the L3 button for this car does.

Maybe it shoots the car into the air without needing a jump? Couldn't Kitt do that?
 
Anyone have this game with Pixeljunk Monsters, Super Street Fighter II HD Remix on the same account to share with me?
Also would try: Pixeljunk Eden, 1942, Bionic Commando Rearmed, Castlevania Chronicles but those arent as important.
I want the first 3 games at least on one account or all them on 2. PM me if I dont look at this thread again.
 
Umm... from the page you posted...
The custom lighting array triggered by boost makes this the most distinctive-looking vehicle for night time events in the dangerous world of Paradise City.

I'll get the bundle for all 4 cars. BTW, it seems like the last big announcement is coming this Friday. I wonder what it'll be. I've heard the possibility of mixing cars/bikes, which would be awesome.
 
[quote name='dabebop']So with the four car pack is this going to continue to be free or is this paid dlc now?[/quote]
Most, if not all, dlc will be paid from now on.
 
Here's some news:

- The Ultimate Box will be released on Feb. 5th/6th. PS3/360 get it everywhere outside of North America. UB will not be released on PS3/360 in NA.
- The PSN version of Burnout Paradise will be lowered to $19.99 between now and then
- The Party Pack is not free (Like IGN wants you to believe)

KingBroly, I think you lost some words off of the first bullet point. The UB is PC-exclusive in NA (i.e., not coming out on PS3/360).
 
[quote name='leveskikesko']I was wondering, should I get Burnout Paradise now or wait for the new Ultimate box thing?[/quote]
Well... If it's true that the UB isn't coming to PS3/360 in NA, and since you're posting this in the PS3 section, I guess you should get it now. :lol:
Unless you want to import it.

But... I can't believe they're not doing the PS3/360 UB in NA.

Ummmm... Holy magical disappearing posts Batman!
 
The only thing you should wait on is for the PSN version to drop to $19.99 if you want that version over the retail version.
 
The best part of the release date announcements:

And finally, for all those of you that aren't ready to part with your hard-earned cash just yet, comes the great news that on the 5th Feb, we'll be giving Burnout Paradise yet another barrage of FREE improvements, with a massive free update.

We'll bring you full details over the coming days, but this overhaul to the game includes the introduction of our all-new in-game website and awesome in-game store. We've also worked on changes to game modes, visuals, the entire vehicle dynamics system. Oh, and we've added a restart !

So I guess that means a new revision for the front end.

[quote name='pete5883']I don't think they really needed a restart, but does that mean all the complainers have to buy the game now?[/quote]
:lol:
Need, no, but it was really annoying to mess up an event right before the finish and have to go back across town to try again.
