Drift Showcase – Basic Game Overview and Guide

Gameplay

Gameplay is about doing drift shows and getting famous.

Om dat te doen, you get into any level you want and do a timed drift show. The most important thing is to impress the crowd as this is what will make you gather more fans quicker and get higher reward after every show.

To impress the crowd perform slide based stunts like “Speed Drift” of “Pro Drift” and do the tasks objects. It is best to always start with a few continued and long slides to get the drift multiplier to max. Keeping sliding at high speed and wider angle will add to the multiplier as well.

Dus, the more you drift, the more attractive you are to the public and the quicker it gets hyped up thus the quicker you acquire more fans.

A TIP : a good way to progress quicker is to start every show with performing continuous slides, like drifting in circle, at least for a while. This is a good tactic as the counter steer mechanics allows you to keep the car at angle and speed. Also this way you can easily perform Pro Drift stunts ( explained below ) which add to XP and Score and hypes up the crowd quickly.

CROWD ENGAGEMENT

The crowd state is shown on the screen with two bars or fan-ometers.

The one that fills out quicker (blauw) shows the current crowd engagement and the second (oranje) represents the “total engagement”. The orange bar gets filled based on the blue one.

The fuller the blue bar, the quicker the orange one fills out.

The fuller the orange bar, the more people liked your show.

So it is important to keep the orange bar full as it acts as a multiplier to the reward for every show and the number of newly acquired fans. If the quality of your drift is not high enough, the crowd gets bored and the bars start to empty up.

XP AND LEVEL

Earn XP points by performing drift stunts like “Speed Drift” and completing tasks like “Gate Slides” of “Pole Hits”. The higher the XP, the higher the driver Level.

FANS AND RANKING

The number of newly attracted fans is based on XP points per show, the current driver level and total crowd engagement. Dus, the higher the XP point per show, the quicker the driver level raises, thus the more fans you attract.

SCORING

A good score can be achieved by doing long slides. Watch the widgets on screen. The higher the drift multiplier, the higher the score. Keeping a speed of 40 km/h or angle of 60 degrees or more increases the drift multiplier for even higher score. By keeping the drift multiplier bars full you perform slide based stunts as Slide Drift, Speed Drift, Angle Drift or Pro Drift which add to XP and Score. Completing any available task object will add more to the XP and Score.

STUNTS AND SLIDES

Available stunts

As soon as it fills out, you get a Slide Drift stunt performed. Note that if some of the other bars is full, you will get either of one other stunts based on which bars are full ( described below )
• Speed Drift – this requires the rule for Slide Drift to be matched. So in case you get drift multiplier at x5 and the Speed Drift bar at 100% in blue color, you get Speed Drift stunt performed
