Chapter 3 - Game Modes/Types
Here is a list of of game modes in Carbon. Please e-mail me if i have left out
Any of them.

*Canyon Sprint
*Canyon Drift
*Sprint
*Circuit
*Drift
*Checkpoint
*Sprint Checkpoint
*Speedtrap
*Canyon Duel

Now i will explain the description for each game mode. Each game mode will have
1 tip from me.

Circuit
---------
A Race around the same track over and over with presetted number of laps.
The only common concentration is to be the first to finish and win the race.
Tip: Find all the possible shortcuts in racing to help you get away from
opponents that are too hard for you.

Sprint/Canyon Sprint
---------
The sprint returns in Carbon as it continues from Underground. Only this time
with more twist and more challenges. And on every Canyon Sprint track, every
curve can make each racers reputation(rep) going down. So make sure you get
ready to handle properly and drive carefully, and head for the Finish line.
Tip: For both of these, find all possible shortcuts only for Normal Sprint.In
Canyon Sprint, try to keep all the turns smoothly and don't lose control of
the car. Especially Muscle cars.

Speedtrap
---------
Back from the Most Wanted, The game mode in this pretty simple rule.
Go as fast as you can in every speedtrap and be the first to corss the line.
Not finishing the line first will cost you some speed penalty.
It took me quite 2-3 times to get first beating a Tier 3 Car using Muscle Tier
2 Car, Dodge Charger R/T. So the only point in this game, First to cross
the Line and Go as Fast enough.
Tip: Don't fall behind and go too slow.

Drift/Canyon Drift
---------
A Whole new drift has changed in Carbon. There are 2 types of different types
of drift. The Normal(as returns from Most Wanted) & Canyon. Both will be
explained how is it according. Normal drift is easy. A pre defined number of
laps, More speed Bonus can get you lots of points and if handled well, as known
as Clean Section, can get you a multiply like x2, x3, x4 and so on. It took me
a few practices to do and get x10 multiply clean section without hitting wall.
Canyon Drift is same as explained in Normal drift, but like Canyon Sprint
and every perilous curve can lose you alot of points & Colossal Drift.
Tip: The mode Canyon Drift is for people who handles the car in NFS Series
very well. If your a good downhill drift racer in Underground 2, you should
probably be able to do this.

Checkpoint
---------
As returned from Most Wanted, the Checkpoint. Same mode as Sprint, but go as
fast as possible under the time limit setted.
Tip: Get through all shortcuts that help you so you can get More Faster.

Canyon Duel
---------
This section i'm gonna explain a bit. It reserves the mark as the section which
battles for 1 whole Territory. Canyon Duel is all about getting as close enough
to the other opponent's car. There are sections which you can get lots of
points & lots of less ponts and 2 rounds of Canyon Duel. First, your gonna
follow your opponent as closest as possible until the finish line. Your score
will be amounted as how much once you reached the end of Round 1. Obviously,
you should always get more than 100,000+ Points if you can. I used my Corvette
sometimes like 4-5 times against a Challenger in Career and got almost 280,000
Points. Then again, you will the race same one, but this time, they will be
following you. And you have to get Away from the opponent before your score
is done. If they do a better job than you, You Lose. Oh, and if the Car is
overtaken for 10 seconds or Pulling away for 10 seconds or falls off the cliff,
You LOSE. If you win both rounds and managed your score to keep up, you win
and the whole territory of 1 town is yours.
Tip: Whenever in Canyon Duel Races, Get ahead of the opponent for 10 seconds
And you win automatically. I have done that almost 5-6 times and it did work.

Now for the Game Types

Career Mode
---------
This is where you start your career and continue the story to retain all your
territory.
(You get to choose which class you wanna start with)

Challenge Series
---------
This mode lets you perform challenging tasks on pre-defined cars. Each task
has three modes of difficulty, Bronze, Silver and Gold with Bronze being the
easiest. When you complete a "Bronze" task, you'll unlock its Silver
counterpart and so on. There are 36 Challenges in the game. Complete all to
earn a reward card.

Quick Race
---------
This mode is where you can just race. First you choose which track you want to
race on, then you can choose between multiplayer and solo modes, on to
Tracking Mode is a new option, choose between Ranked and Unranked,
this will determine if you want to update your stats with this race. Also, if
you selected Ranked, the Shadow Option is enabled, through this option, you
can Record a shadow or Race against a previously recorded one. The last
option on this screen is "NOS", select On if you want to use Nitrous in the
race and Off if you don't. Then you choose the car you want and then the
Transmission (Automatic or Manual).

Reward Cards
---------
Reward Cards are basically tasks that you perform (mostly in Career Mode) to
unlock stuff. However, you have to perform all four tasks in one card to unlock
what the card has to offer. There are altogether 25 Reward Cards with 4 tasks
each, thus a total of 100 tasks.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4 - Crew Members/Wingman
The crews will help you on your way to fight out war for taking over the
whole city. There are 3 ablities of Crews/Wingman are for. (To use your
wingman, See Chapter 2 on Controls of the game for PS2 Version)
---------------------------------------------------
*Blocker
*Drafter
*Scout
---------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------
Blocker: Blockers are like cruise missiles on the road. Whoever you
choose, gets slammed by your blocker leaving your path clear for a
limited time.

Drafter: Drafters get in front of you so you can draft behind them and after
a short period of time you can de-activate them by pressing Triangle to
slingshot past them.

Scout: Scouts are the only crew members which get in action as soon as
the race starts, they lead you through each and every shortcut on the track so
that you can reach the finish line before your opponents. They leave a short
trail and green dots on the map so that if you fall behind, you can use your
map to find the shortcut.
---------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5.1 - The Story
This game is set in Palmont City. Before going to Rockport city, you were
cruising the streets of Palmont city, in your last race, the cops tracked
you and all the cars were tranquilized near the finish line...all the cars,
except yours. Apparently, the race was for big cash, when everybody was
getting busted you fled with the cash, thanks to your girlfriend, Nikki, who
gave the bag to you. After being the best in Rockport, you are returning to
Palmont City to claim what is yours. After the FMV, you are given control of
the car (The BMW M3 GTR from Most Wanted) and Sergeant Cross(Dean
McKenzie) is chasing you in his Corvette, this pursuit ends when you drive
into a truck. Your car gets totaled and you are nearly busted when one of
your friends come to rescue, Darius. Cross stopped talking. Darius starts
talking to Cross when Nikki arrives. Nikki was furious when she saw that
you showed yourself at Palmont City. Darius stopped Nikki from doing it.
Darius then leaves you with Nikki to Neville's Garage where you choose a
car. The Cars section to choose will be explained in Chapter 5.2.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5.2 - Choosing Car Types

Since you were coming back to Rockport in your BMW M3 GTR, but Cross
found you and totaled it, you have to start in a new stock car class. There are
3 car classes in this game you could choose to start from Neville's Garage.
Once choose from that class, it will come with a defined car and you can
also restricted to use that class or change to another class.
-----------------
Car Classes
-----------------
Muscle - Chevrolet Camaro SS
Exotic - Alfa Romeo Brera
Tuner - Mazda RX-8
-----------------
Now, these are what the advantages of these Classes can do.
-----------------
Advantages
-----------------
Camaro SS------------>Highest Acceleration
Alfa Romeo Brera--->Highest Top Speed
Mazda RX-8----------->Highest Handling
-----------------
I chose Muscle(Camaro SS) because it was the fastest class which could beat
Exotic & Tuner.(Because of getting Angie's Charger R/T, it could beat Tier 3
Cars.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notice how you have no territory. The four main areas are owned by either
Stacked Deck, Bushido, 21st Street, or TFK. All the other crews only have one
area of territory that they soon lose to the other person that owns a part of
the city, but they do fight to get it back. You have to win 2 of the races
that are presented in a small area to own that area. Once you own all of the
small areas within the part of the city, the crew leader who owns the area
will come looking for you. You challenge him to a city race and then race
him in the canyon. If you succeed in beating him in the canyon, then you
own his territory, which means no more random encounters if you are
driving in that territory. Fortuna residents use Exotics, Kempton residents
use Muscles, and Downtown residents use Tuners. Depending on the car
you choose in the beginning, you will start your career in a different
territory. You will not start in Silverton, because that is where you go
at the end of the game. All the lower territory bosses use Tier 2
cars, and Silverton uses Tier 3 cars. There is also the aspect of
Zone Heat, which increases in a certain area depending on how often you
race in it. Zone heat is a measurement of how often the cops will show
while you are racing in an area.

As you know, there are four main bosses: Bushido, 21st Street, TFK, and
Stacked Deck. They own a particular area of the city, as shown in the
above section. However, there are also smaller crews, such as Black Hearts
and Los Colibres. These smaller crews often hold only one small area of land
at a time and never own a part of the city. They are just there to bug you and
the other four main bosses out there. These guys are the ones who take you
into a defensive race to make sure your area of land stays in your ownership.
If you decide not to race, you lose your land automatically and your Career
Completion Percentage will drop. A defense race is only worth small change
and is already a race you have beaten before. As with the other main bosses,
the smaller bosses drive a certain kind of car. All the bosses and their cars
are listed here...

In the beginning, all the crews hold some type of land. As the game
progresses, the main crew takes over all of the land in their continent
while the smaller crews lose all their land. You are to take over the
four main areas of land. As stated before, these crews will pop up and
force you into a defensive race or take another crew's territory, so
make sure you know what you are doing.

Different Classes starts in different areas, listed below:
Starting With Muscle - Angie(Kempton) = 1st Boss
Starting With Exotic - Wolf(Fortuna) = 1st Boss
Starting With Tuner - Kenji(Downtown) = 1st Boss
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 7.1 - 21st Street Races

As part of this guide, I'm writing all the races about Muscle class.
So you start with 21st Street first with Muscle, Bushido in Tuner &
T.F.K in Exotic. A note, the Normal Version of Career Mode has only
86 races. If your looking for Collector's Edition, this is not for you :)

Welcome to 21st Street Crew, Kempton. The land is currently
controlled by an infamous and lamed racer named, Angie.
You will have take over all the Territories to challenge the boss.
Now that you made your way here and came back to claim
what was lost in the beginning, you are started with a no rep
racer. You have 3 choice of races to race, Circuit ; Sprint ; Checkpoint.
In this case, one of the races will unlock Nitrous Oxide Street
Package. So I will begin with that. Also you are required to have Neville
as your

In this territory, you should acquire these territories before you
can challenge the boss:

Morgan Beach
Kempton Holdings
The Projects
Eskuri Plaza
Newport Industrial Park

Territory Name: Morgan Beach
Unlocks: Transmission - Tier 1 Street Package
Control: 21st Street

Races:

1.
Type: Circuit
Track: Beachfront
Laps: 2 laps
Cash: 5,000
Unlock: Nitrous & Tires - Tier 1 Street Package

After this race you'll be greeted in by Angie and her crew and you'll watch a
movie with Angie's 21st Street presentation. As part of that, you will be racing
against Tier 1 Muscle Cars. Except in the boss race is Tier 2.

2.
Type: Sprint
Track: Dover and Lepus
Laps: 1 lap
Cash: 5,000
Unlock: Metallic Paint

Morgan Beach conquered!

3. (Optional Race)
Type: Checkpoint
Track: Morgan Beach Offramp
Laps: 1 lap
Cash: 5,000
Unlock: Stripe Vinyls

----------
Now that you finally beat her in the Canyon Duel & Circuit Race, a short
movie will say that you have defeated Angie. The whole Kempton is now
conquered by you. Don't be celebrating much yet, you will still get attacks
from other racing crews. Now you get to pick 2 cards from her. If you wish
to try and get pinkslip, choose the first 4 cards and you must try to get them
in order to obtain the pinkslip. If you get the pinkslip, the car will also be
automatically unlocked in the "Custom" Section of your Quick Race Menu.

Tip: The Pinkslip cards are randomness placed. So be sure to pick and
guess the correct Card!

Note: Now that you beaten Angie, you have 2 territories unlocked and
now you can decide which boss to move on next. Samson will also join your
crew as you have unlocked her. You are freely to use him anytime you want.
For the next Territory, i'm gonna start on Kenji's Bushido.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 7.2 - Bushido's Races

So you gotten rid of Angie and you finally move on to the 2nd boss of
Palmont City, Kenji. Welcome to Downtown, The Overall Control is
now taken by Bushido. At this point, you get a pinkslip from Angie's
Dodge Charger R/T in order to save cash rather than buying it to waste
your cash. If you missed it, you can either continue with the Camaro or
decide which car you will choose to buy. Now every race & every territory
you conquered will unlock you cool cars & new parts for Tier 2. Yet, my
decision is to use the Angie's Charger R/, even though it has only Nitrous
Oxide Race Package. Also, you should have Samson in your crew after he
joins. Add that to your crew and set him active to gain more money, 10%
of every race prize money is more than $200.

TBC - SECTION WILL BE UPDATED SOON

----------
So you finally got rid of that annoying Kenji on Boss Races? Now it's your
territory. As usual, don't be overjoyed too much. Your Downtown territory
will also get attacked. You get to pick 2 cards from Kenji also. If you get his
pinkslip, the car will also be unlocked in the "Custom" Section of Quick Race
Menu.

Note: Now you have beaten Kenji, you have one last boss to take over
before you start on Stacked Deck territory races. The territory you are
moving on next is controlled by T.F.K, Boss Named Wolf. Still, you can
either use the RX-7 You got from Kenji or Charger R/T you got from
Angie. Yumi will also join your crew as the 2nd Scout. You are freely
available to use her in any races you want.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 7.3 - T.F.K's Races

Thrashin those 2 bosses isn't enough? Here's the next challenge for you
in Carbon. You will be going through a tough series of races from T.F.K's
territory, Leader Owned by Wolf. Now that you got both pinkslips from the
first 2 bosses, you can use them in the race. For my decision, I will stay on
with Angie's Charger R/T and install all parts. Now every race & every
territory you acquired will unlock cool cars & new parts for Tier 2.

TBC - SECTION WILL BE UPDATED SOON

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 7.4 - Stacked Deck Races

Now that Angie, Kenji & Wolf is out of your sight, your left with Darius to
fight for the territory, Silverton. As far as you know, I should have completed
55-70% of the game at this point. A Tough Series of races will be given in
Stacked Deck, so watch out for the Tier 3 Cars in some races and Race
Attacks. If you acquire some territories of Stacked Deck, you will be unlocking
Tier 3 cars & Tier 3 New Parts. Be sure to get all and try upgrading them all to
beat Darius once.

----------
When you finally beat Darius in Canyon Duel, enjoy the final cutscene and
the blah blah Credits.

Congratulations! You have won the whole city, now you can continue doing
Challenge Series & Reward Cards. You have unlocked 5 new cars, Carrera GT,
Murcielago, Audi Quattro & more. Now you can start a new career and choose

To You once Again,
Thank You For Reading This FAQ/Walkthrough!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 10 - FAQ/Questions

This is a section of questions that has been asked. Read them before asking me.

General Questions
---------------------------

1.
Q: I have completed everything, but i don't get 100%, what did i left out?
A: You have not done all the racing in the game. You must Complete Challenge
Series & Complete Career. Also, you should unlock all cars & tracks, finish
up the reward cards & race all quick races. If you still have problems, let me
know.

2.
Q: Can i post this guide somewhere else, But i leave all your copyrights
intact?
A: Yes you can, if you are posting this guide somewhere else e-mail me and
let me know that where you are posting. Please give the link or your
permission will not be allowed.

3.
Q: I saw this guide somewhere else and changed your copyrights to his,
what should I do?
A: You mean someone has stole my guide? That's easy question, just report
it to me with the link where is posted and who post it. Whoever that stole my
guide will be reported. Unless he has my permission, but he didn't change
the copyright, he is allowed. But it is illegal to change someone copyright
to yours if you have got the permission to post the guide.

4.
Q: I can't seem to get the reward card on "Have a balance of 1,000,000 in
Career", how do i do that?
A: This has been asked alot alot of times. To get this, you need to lose your
last car in Career. If you have more than 1, sell until the car you want
to get it busted. Get busted 3 or 4 times (depend on your impound strikes
max) and make yourslf no money to pay for your fines. If you have money
but you get all 3/4/5 strikes, you lose your car permanently. And that
will make you restart in Career Again. Now the hard work, choose the Car
Class, work all your way without spending any cash and you should get 1 mil
of it, if you had not spend on any parts of the Car or did not get busted
by the cops. And that, you should be able to get 1 mil of the reward
card. Thanks to Tuokool on EA Play(Aus) for the tip.

5.
Q: Why do i have so many Crew Members? I thought there were only 6? I saw
my Crew Members have 17? Is this a bug?
A: That is not the total crew members you have. That is total number of
Crew Members you have hired. And that is not a bug also.

6.
Q: I did followed what you said in the How to get 1,000,000 in Career,
but when i see my tracks are unlocked in 117? Is this a bug?
A: Possibly might be as it has not been confirmed, Obviously my contributor
to that 1,000,000 in Career also has this before. So just ignore it and
continue doing your way in Career to 1,000,000.

7.
Q: I cannot AutoSculpt Parts in Career! How do i fixed this?
A: It's because you need these 2 to be your crew members who have hired.
One is Sal and the other one is Colin. Both when hired will give you full
unlocks to all the Autosculpt Parts where you can customize. If you have
problems, please tell me and i will try to help you.

8.
Q: Is the Pursuit Condition Maximum only 5?
A: No, because in Career, the max is 5, but if you do in Challenge Series
Trade Paint & Pursuit Evasion, it can go even further.

9.
Q: How many crews can i have a maximum for hiring?
A: The answer is 3. So be good to choose you want to take. Normally,
you should need Sal & Colin for the Autosculpt Parts, so the last is
up to you. Keep that in mind that you only can have 3 crews MAX.

10.
Q: Do you support every NFS Carbon Versions?
A: The answer is.... NO. I only owned the normal version so i do not
know about Collector's edition & EA Downloader Version.

11.
Q: Why you did not give details of how to unlock Reward Cards?
A: It is because I have seperated into two files. This one mostly the
guides for Career & Challenge Series Races. While the other one is
a list on how to get all the reward cards. Remember, that this guide
isn't finish yet and i still have alot to go on races. So don't ask me
everytime when it's going to complete. Patience is a virtue..., that's
what everyone usually does.

12.
Q: There are some cars I saw on the list but I don't know how to
unlock it, How do i get that?
A: Those cars that have * are only In Collector's Edition. And
if there's a ** beside, it's in the EA Downloader's Version ONLY.

13.
Q: I can't beat Darius in the city! Which car should I use?
A: There are 3 classes you choose, so pick wisely.

Tuner - Skyline, Evo IX
Muscle - Corvette Z06, Dodge Challenger Concept, Plymouth Hemi Cuda
Exotic - Murcielago, Gallarado, Ford GT

14.
Q: The BMW M3 GTR cheat on SuperCheats i tried and it did not work.
Why is that?
A: That's fake. The cheat for BMW M3 GTR is completely Bogus. The
only way to unlock the BMW M3 GTR is to complete the final Reward
Card. Please refer to my other guide for how to complete it. The BMW
M3 GTR can only be unlocked in Quick Race, Custom Cars Section.

15.
Q: The money cheat i used did not work. I did use once and now it doesn't.
A: Simple Answer. The Money Cheat can only be used once in a save game.

16.
Q: In the cheats section, the cheats are supposed to be placed in the main
title. Where is that?
A: The main title is where you see the options (Career, My Cars, Quick Race...etc.)
and a screen showing the Audi Le Mans Quattro.

17.
Q:I have unlocked the Audi Le Mans Quattro and I can't find it in the Career
please help ME!
A: Audi Le Mans Quattro can only be accessed in the Quick Race, Custom
cars Section only. Not In Career.

18.
Q: How do you get the Toyota Corolla AE86 in Need For Speed Carbon?
A: I believe it is only in the PSP Version of Carbon at the moment.

19.
Q: Where do I unlock the 2007 Ford Mustang GT500?
A: I believe it is only in the PSP Version at the moment.

Chapter 11 - Tips/Tricks/Hints/Secrets (NEW!)

So you are having trouble in some parts of the game? Or some parts
of the game you didn't know? Well try these from our experts in NFS
Carbon. We guarantee that all these have been tested and it works out
for some of them.

-Don't upgrade your car unless you need to. It may save you money.

-When facing with Kenji and Wolf in Canyon Duel, have the Dodge
Charger R/T at the ready. In the first 15 seconds you can overtake
them and win the race.

-When you get into the "Stacked Deck" territory don't worry too much
about having a Tier 3 car, just get a bit of territory to unlock a Tier 3
car, and if you're having trouble with that, just do the Checkpoint race
to win the 350Z in the lower-west part of the territory.

-If you start with muscle, add Samson to your crew as soon as you meet
him. His cash bonus will really help you out.

-If you are running low on cash, trade in body parts added to cars you
own, or redo races.

-Don't waste your hard-earned cash on customising the visual aspects
of your car. This is un-needed at all times during the game, and just
wastes money you could be using on performance upgrades, or more
cars. If you have lots of money to blow, and are sure it won't matter,
customize it, but it isn't a good idea in general.

-If you redo races which gives less money, try doing random encounters.

-For Drift Settings on your car, try tuning Engine to Horsepower,
Transmission to acceleration and high steering.

-When you get a pink slip car from the main 3 bosses, you will notice
that it has only Nitrous Oxide Race Package installed.

-When modifing a crew member's car, you will notice none of them
have any performance parts, except for Visuals, Aftermarket &
Autosculpts. Be sure to upgrade and make them go fast enough.

Good review but you don't really need one for this game. I completed it in a few days, it seams to be considerably easier than other EA games.

I'm on 24% :lol: -- I'm slowly but surely going through it. I got it at Christmas and been playing on it only recently :-/ -- the drifting on the mountain gets to me sometimes :'(

Anyways, thanks for review/tips on Carbon -- useful ;) [a little on the LONG side :(]
