What do you do after an event?

EAUK_Baker011 · 26-02-2008, 09:44 AM

Once you complete an event what do you do? Personally I start exploring, see if there are any smashes I have missed close to me, then jump straight into another event.

Spidery Yoda · 26-02-2008, 11:32 AM

Well now I have my elite license, it don't do many events anymore, but when i was going through them all, I always just drove around after finishing one. Exploring.

Matt@Sim_Moves · 26-02-2008, 05:14 PM

Same here Baker, I usually go looking for a odd smashes and super-jumps (nailed all the Billboards though

).

ZombieTron · 26-02-2008, 05:22 PM

I tend to play in moods, so when I am in a racing mood I will look for the next race or burning route event.

When in a Road Rage mood I will do road rages and marked man events.

When in a stunt mood, I will look for the next stunt run or go exploring for that last smash and super jump.

IV Twenty · 27-02-2008, 12:14 PM

offline i go to the nearest open event because I DO NOT go all the way back to the one i started. (ive did it once because i wanted to get the thunder customs burning route done right away)

Online i explore for those last billboards, smashes and jumps that i dont really care to go searching for hours for, maybe i will get them all in the next month or so? I have found shortcuts on tracks that my friends and i have ran hundreds of times and we had never seen or noticed. They get all crazy when i cut off our regular path using a new shortty... "DANGIT THERE GOES TWENTY AGAIN" lolol

thedude108 · 27-02-2008, 03:35 PM

depends on the car your driving,
after finishing an event,
speed: beat my friends roadrules

stunt: stuntrun/exploring
agression: events(races, roadrage, markedman)

EAUK_Adroit · 27-02-2008, 03:59 PM

It depends really, if I have spent a lot of time in an area and have explored as much as there is to explore I'll look for another event. If I haven't spent a lot of time in a particular area I'll see if I can find any gates left to smash or any remaining Super Jumps before starting another event.

Cozer · 27-02-2008, 04:05 PM

because i am only on my Class A liesense, i would normally go and find other event that i have not yet completed on my current liesense. If i have got outstanding cars to shut down, then i ould go after them before another race :-)

shayman1911 · 28-02-2008, 08:46 PM

I've only got stuntruns left to do for events, and I struggle to do them! but I used to drive around and look for billboards and smashes, still have a few to do now so spend a fair bit just cruising and showtime while looking

Saintsfanuk · 05-03-2008, 06:12 PM

Depends, if I'm trying to get my next license I just continue to another event. If I'm doing burning routes I do it, go back to the garage get a new car and do that one.

the poloman · 11-03-2008, 12:18 AM

i played the game weirdly and wrong i think

i did all the races way too quickly and then found everything very quickly using maps. i always do that with my games though but im not an achievement basher because i dont care

timster1973 · 25-05-2008, 11:30 PM

As I got Elite now, I go exploring and checking out each area for the 3 super jumps I have overlooked.

Also need to get the 360 degree flatspin and 20 burnout chain challenges.

for the flatspin try the quarry jump! most i ever got from there is 601degree

for 20x burnout out chain try the baseball stadium, (get into a long spinning skid and boost like mad!)

Nutter · 29-08-2008, 11:04 PM

If your looking for a big flatspin, try the Dam instead. I have a top of 1,200* with the Hot-Rod.

Ftbll123456780 · 01-09-2008, 12:58 PM

I used to play another event, but now I've got my Elite, I explore.

orifice · 02-09-2008, 11:34 AM

find another

psycoderek · 07-10-2008, 09:55 AM

Personally I explore and do events as I find them then explore some more. I have found that stunt events are some what difficult but I still have a go.
I have 2 smashes to find and they are doing my head in. I'll find them eventually but that's part of the fun of Burnout. I own ALL the burnout titles and noticed that the voice of Stryker in burnout 3 is the same as Atomica in paradise. How wierd is that.

alexatkinuk · 09-11-2008, 03:09 PM

Often I get really really bored, because all the events at the destination I just arrived at I already did.

I understand the reasoning for not having a restart option but I am glad to hear that one is supposedly coming. Once you have done a large percentage of the events its far more important as you can't just "do other events on your way back" as there might not be any to do.

sammeboy11 · 13-11-2008, 04:26 PM

It depends really. Sometimes, I'm in the mood to explore around the city, and sometimes I feel more inclined to get another race added to my license.

I just haul ace around Paradise in my platinum P12
