GETTING STARTED
Set up your PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system according to the instructions supplied with your system. Check that the system is turned on (the on/standby indicator is green).
Press the OPEN button to open the disc cover. Place the Drive To Survive disc with the label side facing up in the disc holder, and then close the disc cover. Attach game controllers and other peripherals as appropriate. Follow the on-screen instructions and refer to this manual for information on using the software.
Memory Card (8MB)(for PlayStation®2)
To save game settings and progress, insert a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2) into MEMORY CARD slot 1 of your PlayStation®2 system.
You can load saved game data from the same memory card or any memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2) containing previously saved games.

Challenge Cup Unlocks
Completing a Bronze Challenge will unlock the Silver Challenge and also the Bronze Challenge on the next track. Completing a Silver Challenge will open up the Gold Challenge.
Ten tracks can be unlocked in this way; the remaining three are harder to open. You must complete all Bronze Cups to unlock the eleventh track, all Silver Cups to unlock the twelfth and all Gold Cups to unlock the final track.
Most Challenges have a time limit of 5 minutes. Once this limit is reached, the End Game mode will be initiated. When this happens, points will no longer be taken away from your score if you lose; they will just be added if you win.
Quick Battle
Quick Battle allows you to play against computer opponents on any unlocked track. This is a great way to practice a particular track at your own leisure.
The following options are available:
Power Ups
Power Ups can be set up in three ways: Standard, Chaos and Off. Standard places power ups in a set location on each level.
If you prefer a little more carnage, the Chaos power up placement adds a greater number of power ups to the level.
Difficulty Level
Difficulty Level allows you to change the difficulty of the AI cars.
Vehicle Select
Vehicle Select allows you to change which vehicle to drive. This will be limited to what has been unlocked through the Challenge Cup.
Opponent Select
Opponent Select allows you to customize your opponents.
Game Mode
Game Mode allows you to change between One-against-all, where all the AI players race as a team, and All-against-all, where all players race as individuals.
Time Trial
The Time Trial allows you to complete a lap of any available level in the shortest time possible. There is only one challenge, to beat your personal best!
A shadow car of your best time will appear after you have completed your first Time Trial lap on a track. The shadow car will be saved when you next save the game.
NOTE: Time Trial is a locked feature. You will need to play through part of the Challenge Cup to unlock the Time Trial mode.
Multiplayer
Multitap (for PlayStation®2) allows you to play Drive To Survive with 2-4 players. This can be achieved by either using a Multitap (for PlayStation®2) or by using the unique Dual Control system. This is where up to 4 players can play with only 2 controllers! Please refer to the Controls section on page 4 for a list of the controls.
There are two types of Multiplayer game, Standard Play and Team Play.
Select either Standard Controls (2-4 players with or without a multitap (for PlayStation®2) or Share Controllers (2-4 players with one or two controllers).
Note: If using a multitap (for PlayStation®2), please ensure it is inserted into controller port 1. Insert controllers sequentially into controller port 1-A, controller port 1-B, controller port 1-C and controller port 1-D.
Standard Play
The Standard Play mode allows you to set up a fully customizable Multiplayer game with your friends on any track that has been unlocked through the Challenge Cup. By default, the first 4 tracks are available to play.
The following options are available:
Power Ups (Multiplayer)
Power Ups can be set up in three ways: Standard, Chaos and Off. Standard places power ups in a set location on each level (the same placements from the Single Player Challenges).
If you prefer a little more carnage, the Chaos power up placement adds a greater number of power ups to the level.
Game Length
The Game Length determines the amount of time before the End Game mode is initiated. This can be changed to 5, 10 or 20 minutes.
Extra Opponents
Selecting Extra Opponents will add computer-controlled opponents to the Battle if less than four human players are present. Select a Skill Level to enable them.
