London Racer - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for London Racer - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

Why don't they take even a teeny tiny bit of interest in the others?


Make collisions more realistic
------------------------------
The collision detection is always frustrating, sometimes infuriating and 
often plain surreal. Invisible walls, force fields, giant kerbs, concrete 
road signs, transparent trees, disappearing buildings...


Make the Artificial Intelligence better 
---------------------------------------
All right, so this IS asking a lot, but your opponents especially seem so 
robotic that it is almost criminal. They just shoot off and stick in a 
pack, so that you can overtake on the first couple of bends and then they 
always sit only just behind you, ready to overtake on your first mistake, 
whichever car you have or whatever speed you drive at. 


Bearing in mind that the racing environment (even though it looks great) 
is so poor, I would ask Davilex: "Was that really the very best you could 
do? Were you yourselves truly satisfied with the game?" Perhaps it's just 
me - their corporate website trumpets the fact that they have sold 
100,000 units (for PSX and PC) in the UK, but I would guess that is 
because of the knockdown price, and not because of wildfire 
recommendations. I wonder how many of those customers would agree that 
although the background artwork is generally very impressive, just about 
everything else lets the game down. I say this without satisfaction, as I 
really, really wanted this game to be good; in fact I was hoping for 
Great, but maybe in the end I should just settle for OK, which is really 
all it is. Improvements please.
