I've been working on my Spy Hunter score at a friend's house, and my best so far is 72,920. My average is around 40,000.
Any tips for scoring higher?
So far, I know that scoring 18,000 points in the initial run before time runs out awards two spare cars, (which is easier said than done), and that the oil slick is best deployed in quick spurts in order to make it last longer.
I know that taking the first three lefts will get you to the boat house... and staying on the water as long as possible seems to be a nice way to rack up points with fewer hyperactive enemies after you.
I get into trouble when I have no oil slick or smoke screen and there's a switchblade chasing me. If I try to drop my speed to get behind him and shoot him, he still bumps into me and wastes my car. How do you guys handle that situation?
There's also that "random element" that tends to get me such as... after being dropped off on the side of the road by the weapons van, I pull to the left to get back on the highway and immediately get smacked off the road and loose a life due to some speeding putz that appeared out of nowhere. Frustrating.
So any Spy Hunter gurus wanna help a fella out?
