Burnout 3: Takedown (Alpha 1 build): Difference between revisions

Being rather close to the retail game, most of the World Tour goes unchanged,. howeverHowever, there are a few events with some differences, namely '''Burning Laps''' with times being much tighter than in the final game. It is possible that vehicle choices were different regarding some crash junctions but this must be confirmed first.

In crash mode itself there are very light differences, namely the end-screen pan around working much differently than retail. Instead of money being gradually counted individually by dollar, it is added onto the main number as a whole, and skipping the monetary damage for bonuses and multipliers will continue to run the pan-around.

Through gameplay it's easy to notice the AI are given much higher values within the [[Value Database]], with some vehicles including Dominators and Assassins becoming more intense competition. Super Class and some Race Specials are also very noticeably heightened in AI values, making the final stretch of the game much more brutalisticdifficult. Certain vehicles upon the player crashing may become untouchableunreachable, leaving the player as much as 10+ seconds behind, and requiring a restart for mosta Gold Medal, or simply first place depending on if you're playing World Tour desirableor resultsnot.

In this build, the combat is found to be although not drastically different, heavier than what is given in retail. Cars take more of a beating without dying, and getting '''Psyche Outs''' presents itself more of a challenge. Sometimes vehicles can be seen tipping sideways like in the [[Burnout_3_(2004-04-28_demo)| Standalone Demo]] but this is no longer able to be done by vehicleengaging in combat and is merely just how the player interacts with the track at high speeds.

Some tracks feature different values within the [[Environment Slice]]. It's primarily seen in european tracks with most sportinghaving a much colder look to them, as well as '''Alpine Expressway''' having strange lighting, though only Expressway Eastbound appears to be genuinely broken. Based on promotional material and old gameplay videos some of these environment values could date back to as early as May 2004.

On the icons for certain vehicles, colors that are not present in the final product can be seen when cycling through them in the garage.
