weather in porsche unleashed

New to this game, working my way through evolution mode, just got into the Golden Era. Are there any weather effects in this game? Does it ever rain, snow etc? You can buy wet tires, why would you ever use them? Or will it rain now and again and if you've bought them for your car they are automatically installed?

Yes it rains and snows, really great effects. -- Kevin Anderson [email hidden] "Frankie Howerd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:A9Rn6.19$[email hidden]... > New to this game, working my way through evolution mode, just got into the > Golden Era.

well, you have 1 or 2 stages on the snow in the factory mode, but it's VERY limited... "Frankie Howerd" <[email hidden]> a �crit dans le message news: A9Rn6.19$[email hidden]...

Each track has its own weather. The autobahn track is rainy, and the high mountain pass is snowy. It doesn't change from event to event. Tires are not automatically installed - you have to go to the garage and change tires depending on the event. Normally you should keep a set of dry tires and a set of rain tires for your current car if the series includes both type of track. Rain or standard tires double as snow tires - you really don't want to take your slicks up there :) "Frankie Howerd" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:A9Rn6.19$[email hidden]...

It rains at the Autobahn, and in the Alps the course starts off dry and clear. The snow starts gradually the higher you get up the mountain til it's almost a white-out... then when you begin to descend down the other side of the mountain the snow tapers off and leaves you on dry roads at the end of the course.

I see, so depending upon the track, you know what the weather will be like. That's a bit of a pity really, it would be nice if there was more of a dynamic weather feature, sometimes raining in Normandie etc... "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:M2Un6.3658$[email hidden]...

. Rain or standard tires double as snow tires - you really > don't want to take your slicks up there :) Not really true in NFS5, you'll use slicks at 45lbs regardless of the track (Alps included) for top times. They should have made bad-weather grip level differences more pronounced. As it is rain & standard tires are unused in the game. rms [email hidden]
