    KEY FEATURES OF BATTLE GEAR 4

     

    • Battle Gear 4 Tuned has 5 modes of racing:
      • Event race. Periodically Taito announces special races that are restricted to tuned cars. Each key is only allowed to participate once in each event race. Players attempt to set the best time (or drift point record in drift mode) to compete against other players.
      • Race mode. This allows players to race various levels of opponents on different tracks. The opponents are computer cars within the same class of the players' car. The game defaults the opponents' skill levels from 1 to 10, but it can be extended to level 98. Levels over 10 can only be unlocked by beating the previous level of opponents.
      • Drift mode. This is the new add-on in BG4 Tuned where the player drifts his car around the corners, attempting to gain the maximum amount of points.
      • One make race. This is similar to the race mode, but the opponents appear with the same car model as the player.
      • Time attack. This is the mode where the player attempts to set the best finishing time of the selected track.
      • Battle mode. This is a local race and the most popular with linked cabinets where drivers race against each other. This mode can only be selected when there is more than one player competing and works also without the internet service connection.
