n99 question

circuit city has n99 for sale for 19.99 this week. i looked at it but aside from a few new trax and the supertrucks,it seems the same as n2. does it have double file restarts throughout the race and do cars that are lapped start on the inside row?? what other features were added to make the game worth buying that n2 doesnt have?? thanks don

Yes, the double file restarts with lapped cars going to the inside works very well. Several more tracks, and the truck series is great. N99 is well worth the investment. The graphics are better,and some of the existing tracks are redesigned. Plus it is win95 native, except for the rendition version. -- Don Burnette Palmetto Racing Dburn on Ten >circuit city has n99 for sale for 19.99 this week. i looked at it but aside >from a few new trax and the supertrucks,it seems the same as n2. does it have >double file restarts throughout the race and do cars that are lapped start on >the inside row?? >what other features were added to make the game worth buying that n2 doesnt >have?? thanks don

The AI does not try to come done on yoiu as much and sometimes even will get out of the way >I forgot to mention, the AI is much better also. >-- >Don Burnette >Palmetto Racing >Dburn on Ten

If you have a 3dfx card then NR99 is *WAY* worth it. It is much better than the 3dfx patch for N2 which is floating around ( I thought that patched sucked BTW). NR99 is cool, and on a p2-450 with voodoo2 12MB it is totally fluid... -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com >circuit city has n99 for sale for 19.99 this week. i looked at it but aside >from a few new trax and the supertrucks,it seems the same as n2. does it have >double file restarts throughout the race and do cars that are lapped start on >the inside row?? >what other features were added to make the game worth buying that n2 doesnt >have?? thanks don

Disagree. In some ways - the AI is actually worse. The pile-up in turn 1 (that I was able to fix with AI changes at most tracks) - is now a big stutter-start before the s-f line. Cars go from 55 - to 35 - to on the gas - and you either run into them or lose them. This is a BIG problem and I have yet to find a fix for. /TomH

The computer cars (Artificial Intelligence) Also, the AI is terrible at the start. After that, though, it makes you seem very slow again <g>. Brian
