The Library of Free Full Version PC Games: Need for Speed

Undercover features a new "open-world" map[12] consisting of 100 miles (160 km) of road[13] and a large highway system, making it the largest Need for Speed "world" EA has created so far.[13] The game's environment consists of
four boroughs: Palm Harbor, Port Crescent, Gold Coast Mountains, and Sunset Hills.[14] These four boroughs make up
the city, Tri-City.[15] The road system includes four water crossings, going clockwise: the Main Guy Causeway
(Ocean Expressway connecting Sunset Hills to Port Crescent via man-made island), the Vale Causeway (Sunset Hills to
Palm Harbor), the North T Causeway (Man-made island to Palm Harbor), and the Memorial Tunnel (Port Crescent to Palm
Harbor).[14] Undercover also features a new contiguous highway system.[7] In previous installments, highways were
relatively small circuits concentrated within separate boroughs.[16] In Undercover, the main highway circles Tri-
City, with each of the four boroughs sharing a piece of the larger circuit.[14] The longer highway length gives a
more realistic shape, with long straight areas, gentle curves, rest areas and large interchanges.[14] Lastly, the
entire map is open from the start of the game, unlike previous installments where boroughs had to be unlocked.[14]
The police system is similar to Most Wanted and Carbon. It uses a similar bar graph at the bottom of the screen
that moves between the blue "Evade" (shown as green on PS2 and Wii), on the right side, and the red "Busted", on
the left side, depending on the player's speed and proximity to police.[14] The "Cooldown" period after evading
pursuing police units returns as well, along with heat levels, speedbreaker and pursuit breakers. Similar to Most
Wanted and Carbon, police vehicles range from generic city patrol cars to federal pursuit cars accompanied by
police heavy SUVs and helicopters.[14] Unlike previous games, the type of police that appear is not entirely
dependent on heat levels (i.e. high level police can appear at low heat levels and vice versa) but more on the
player's wheelman level (i.e. progress through the game). At a high wheelman level, federal police will immediately
join the pursuit, even if the player was at a low heat level.[14][17] Common police tactics such as road blocks,
rolling road blocks, spike strips, and PIT maneuvers are all featured, although some are only used by federal
police. In addition, the player gets to drive a police vehicle in a mission in career mode, which consists of
