Riptide GP2 Cheats And Tips

Riptide GP2 is one heck of a racer. Not only does it have some of the coolest water effects, but also a Career mode and four-person online play. It's easy to get distracted by all the pretty special effects, but you'll be able to keep your eyes on the track with these Riptide GP2 hints.

-Although the game has default tilt controls, you can switch to touchscreen controls from the Settings menu.

-Refill boost by performing stunts in mid-air, achieved by swiping in various directions on the touchscreen.

-Avoid pulling off the same trick repeatedly, as this may impact your ability to refill the boost meter.

-Best time to use boost: on straightaways. Avoid pressing the boost button while navigating through turns, at least until you have more experience. Never use it while in the air.

-Pause the game to view a list of stunts you can execute.

-Complicated tricks may require bigger air off ramps. Try hitting the boost button right before flying up a ramp.

-Having trouble playing Riptide GP2? Head into Default Settings where you can tinker with the game's resolution for a smoother frame rate, or check out Advanced Settings to toggle off/on a variety of effects, such as Hi-Res Textures, Water Reflection and Boost Blur FX. Doing this, however, may negatively impact the game's performance.
