Posts: 264 | NFS Bus Glitch (Do Not Read If You Play Fair) Now i havent used this on my campaign as i dont like to cheat unless ive already completed it, but i did try it then not save the game and it really does work a treat.
The Bus Station Glitch can get you millions of bounty so read on if you cant handle NFS and its Milestones and bounty's that are needed to be reached. Quote:
1. What is this Bus Station Glitch people talk about?
This is very... useful for the people who are having trouble with Bounties. It can let you score up to millions of points in one sitting (yep!). You can also complete every Pursuit Time Challenge milestones with this glitch. Of course if you want to complete these milestones with skills, then stay away from it.
2. So how do I get there?
The easiest way to get there is by picking "Bounty" from your Blacklist racer screen and then choose "Doughnut Shop". When the pursuit starts, simply go STRAIGHT. Just keep driving, don't get caught by cops and at the same time, you gotta have their attention. After about 40-50 secs, you will see a huge Donut pursuitbreaker. From there, turn right and go straight until you see buses on the right.
Break in, get inside the bus station by breaking glass on one of its sides and drive up the little ramp. The left one puts you on top of those buses, but keep couple of things in mind: Drive up the ramp with some decent speed. If you're too slow, there's a gap where you can fall off and get stuck. Plus, make sure the cops still have your attention. If they're inside the bus station with you, don't worry about it and just drive up the ramp. More info posted below...
3. How do I become successful at this and score much higher?
It's much easier than you think. First of all, I highly recommend that you pick a car with Heat Level 3. If you can, make it 3 1/2 actually. You can do this by getting up to Level 5 and then paint your car. It will lower the heat level to 3 1/2. Trust me, that's the PERFECT way to start this.
Now second step... you HAVE to get to Bus Station by the time you reach Heat Level 4. If you drive nicely without getting stuck anywhere, you can easily make it. In case if you fail, just make sure you still have cops behind you. That's all you need. Oh yeah, one more thing. Also make sure there are NO roadblocks when you arrive there. I will explain this after the next paragraph, so just stick with me.
Ok. So when you're on top of buses, make sure you're on the last one (drive slowly, dont fall off). Why? Well, its gonna make your life much easier. When you're on the last one, the dumb A.I thinks you're totally outside and MOST of the time, they won't even try to go up the ramp... BUT if a cop is behind you when you drive up the ramp, then he has chances of following you through. Keep an eye on the map!!! In case if a cop comes up, DON'T panic. Like I said, they're idiots. Carefully drive your car towards him before he gets to you, he will probably get scared and fall off. Yep, it does happen! They try to save themselves when you hit them. But if you fail at this for some reason, still DON'T panic. Quickly jump down the buses, go back inside the station and then on top again. Yes, you don't have to fight them. It will ONLY cause more of them to come. You don't want that to happen.
4. So what happens next and how do I end this chaos?!
It's simple. By this time, you should be on top of buses with Level 4 black cars trying to ram you.
Why Level 4 cops? You get much HIGHER bounty with these black cars. AT LEAST 5,000 on each ram... It's not bad to start with Level 2 or 1, but trust me it's a BIG waste of time. They give you very FEW points and then you must have their attention all the way up to Level 4. That's just a little more work... so start with Level 3. Those cops are still nothing.
So here's how you finally end it:
Like I mentioned above, please make sure there are no roadblocks around that area. From my experience, 90% of the time you won't see one. If you do, it pretty much causes more cops to arrive AND SUVs. You don't want this to happen in case if you fall or trying to end the pursuit. If it happens, just restart. Eventually, you will get used to everything and it won't take you much to do it over.
Alright... so you are on Level 4. This is all you gotta do: Watch your back and wait until Level 5. When you reach Level 4, there's ALWAYS a helicopter. Don't let him confuse you. If you stay in one place, he will stay in one place too. After about a minute, he goes away and then you're just left with the cops. BUT while he's on, dont get surprised when you see more black cars arriving at your place. If a helicopter spots you, it always happens. So let them do whatever they want, you just watch your back and stay on the last bus...
Why wait for Level 5? Here's the little trick... they DON'T come! Hahahahhaha. Yep, this is true but ONLY IF YOU'RE STILL ON TOP OF BUSES! I repeat, keep your car on top of the buses until the meter reaches Level 5.
What happens if you fall off? Pop-up graphics! Ha. You will see a bunch of cops on white Corvettes PLUS a new helicopter. I will talk a little more about this in Question # 5...
------
Alright. So by now, you should know that cops from PREVIOUS Levels always leave when the new ones arrive. This doesn't seem to happen with Level 5 somehow. However, you MAY still see Level 4 black cars ramming your bus even when there's Level 5. This game is glitchy, so it will happen a lot. If there is more than 1 car, then wait for them to kill each other. Only one will be left at the end... DON'T go down. Just move your car backwards... at some point, you will be out of his sight since he's the only one there. Trust me, it's very easy to do. When the Cooldown meter comes, he will leave the area. DON'T move your car. Let him leave. Sometimes, he just stays next to station. Still DON'T move... let the cooldown meter fill and you will be done with this.
Of course if all of them leave by themselves on Level 5, then you don't have to do anything. Just move your car backwards a little and wait for cooldown meter to fill. Don't get scared. From my hours of experience, they NEVER come back after that.
------
Yep, so this is it and its all true. Let me repeat this again: Level 5 cops don't arrive unless you go down the buses. Let level 4 cops leave, kill each other or get out of his sight (while still on the bus) when only 1 left.
5. What if I fall by mistake and want to run away?
Well, then get prepared for some intense chases. You will most likely be on level 5 heat and it's very hard to lose them. You can go straight from the bus station and get the gas station pursuitbreaker right in front of you. After that, either try Stadium or a tunnel in the city. I'm not fully sure about the tunnel. All I know it's somewhere located in the city where there are large buildings. Once inside the tunnel, you can kill the cops by yourself and others won't be able to locate. I have only done it couple of times and it worked. Just kill the cops whenever you're in a place where new ones can't arrive. That tunnel is a good example. Just find it and see for yourself...
(but if I were you, I'd quit and restart. Much easier.)
