RUSH 2049
GOLD AND SILVER COINS
Secret cars, new car parts, tracks and gameplay modes are awarded as you collect Silver and Gold coins.
JUMPS
Each track is loaded with jumps. Some jumps are natural hills and others are man-made. Remember that the faster you approach a jump, the further distance you'll fly.
Jumping correctly can help you get in front of other cars or even reach shortcuts. Jumping the wrong way can get you into trouble. Try to hit each jump straight on, as you're more likely to land squarely.
If you do get into trouble while you're airborne, don't panic. Each car in the game is equipped with a set of wings.
FLYING
Flying is a fun but crucial part of this game. Depending on what controller setup you have, press the button that corresponds with your wings while you are airborne. Wings will emerge from the side of your car and allow you to glide for a while.
While you are in the air, hold down the wing button. As you hold the Wing button, move the directional buttons ← and → to make the car roll. If you press the directional buttons ↑, the car will dip its nose forward. Pressing directional buttons ↓ will lift the car's nose.
*NOTE: Wings are not available in Ghost or Battle modes. Stunt wings are available only in Stunt mode.*
BATTLE MODE
This is a 2-4 Player deathmatch where each player must score a set number of points (or kills) in order to win. As you drive around the arena, collect powerful weapon upgrades to exterminate the competition.
After you have selected how many players there will be, highlight Battle at the Select Mode screen and press the Ⓧ Button.
Before you begin to play, you will be able to select the track (arena) that you want to use. In addition to the usual track options you can adjust, you have the option of setting the number of points needed to win. Highlight Battle Points and choose from 5 points to 50 points needed to determine a victor.
After you have adjusted the track options, all players can select their cars and change the car settings. After all players are ready, press the Ⓧ Button to begin the battle.
