Recommended Posts

The other day I was happy to do some racing in FUEL.

Suddenly my game froze and my savedata disappeared.

I was already at 480 gamerscore and quite disappointed.

Lesson learned. Every time I unlock a new area or do

something worthwhile I'll make a backup on my USB-stick.

 

This gave me the opportunity to restart the game and document my progression.

I will be using this thread to do so.

=========================== RACE TRICK ===========================

 

I use this trick a lot if I want to go somewhere far away from a helicopter point.

start ==>> RB to Race Editor ==>> Create Race.

create the race near the location you want to go.

ie. near a doppler truck or vista point.

Then try the race and either finish it or cancel it.

Now the game will leave you at the race-location which

should be quite close to your desired location.

At this point I'll be trying to unlock as many vehicles and zones as possible.

I'll do this by racing on Expert level. I'll come back to do the races on Legend level at some later date.

Once I have unlocked Redrock Bluffs I can do some grinding for fuel which will enable me to buy more vehicles.

=========================== VEHICLE TRICK ========================

 

This trick enables you to use any vehicle you own instead of the default vehicle.

This works for challenges and races.

 

Start a challenge or race. Wait for the countdown.

When "GO" appears onscreen quickly press the back button on your controller.

Now you are at the main menu and you can select another vehicle from your garage.

You can only do this once per race. If you chose wrongly then you have to quit the race and do the race again.

Simply using the restart option from the game disables this trick.
