    Unless this game gets an update again this thread really needs to die off now. I know I just put it back to the top with this post but I'm just sayin'...

    Okay, will do. But it's such a great game that it deserves to be kept alive.

    The one where I'm supposed to chase the gang group, early on in the game I think. You need to hijack a car and follow them after finding out their fortress.. I failed at following them, let them get away or something
     
  8. I love this game. Think I'm about 80% complete and completed the story. Have something about collecting two lions or something but don't know what the hell that means. Just trying to find the USJ and security cameras now I think.

    Not sure which mission you're talking about, but with the chase missions, I find that the most important thing is to use the right vehicle. If you fail the mission, don't restart it until you pick up a fast, sturdy and reasonably nimble car like a Sultan, Banshee or Turismo.

    Failing that, they usually follow the same route, so just memorize which way they're going to go.

    Yeah, this is probably my favourite iPhone game of all time.

    i memorized the route, but I keep get hit by other cars or bump in a wall. I think you should be able to skip a mission after 11 failed attempts. I've only finished 2% of the game D:

    The two lions would have appeared on the blue swirls that you may have encountered during the game.

    I kinda dont know what to say, that mission is closer to being a tutorial than an actual mission, You should be able to pass it relatively easily. Once you get the hang of the controls though, you should see how brilliant the game is, easily the best on the platform IMO. The easiest way is to stick to the center line, you shouldnt hit too many cars and the ones you do should bounce off. And while driving I found all you need to really do is tap the turn buttons.

    Yeah, driving is actually easy once you get the system.

    The car auto-corrects to going straight so all you need to to is use the left/right buttons to make adjustments and turn corners.

    Also, as mentioned above, stay in the middle of the road, then you pass most cars.

    If you are constantly trying to stear the car it's almost impossible to drive straight.

    I had trouble driving too at first, but now I'm racing around town without problems.

    Also, you can use the radar in the top left to keep track of where the gangs are going in case you loose sight of them.

    In the system settings there is a 0-10 setting for the car-camera or something like that. What does it do. I have fiddled with it for a long time now and i dont see any difference whatsoever??

    It's sets position of camera while in car. If it's 0 car is in the middle of the screen, when it's 10 car is is closer to lower edge of the screen.

    It adjusts the position of the car in relation to your screen.

    the complete opposite for me, I have barely touched BIA2 since I got this (I got BIA2 first for some reason). Have to say this game is much better.
