It makes the game engine purr like a kitten in a sea of catnip, and removes the majority of serious bugs that may have been impeding your enjoyment of this racing classic. Need for Speed Underground 2's 1.2 patch is essential if, for some reason, you are still playing Need for SpeedUnderground 2. Providing you have a relevantly modes graphics card (Need for Speed Underground 2 is now over 10 years old), the 1.2 patch will offer you access to upgrade visuals when running the game at higher resolutions. Of course no real racing upgrade would be complete without a shiny new coat of paint. This isn't perfect, as it means you can't see the people who really have been naughty online - but it does feel more fair than punishing people due to server errors.

3D isnt the GBAs strong suit, so its actually pretty impressive that all the cars and courses in NFSU2 are put together. If you have been unfairly flagged for your behavior by the game, this patch removes the visible icon that alerted players to your (unfairly?) alleged misdeeds. Need for Speed Underground 2 for the GBA features 3D cars and courses. A new paint jobĪlso worthy of note is a fix for the game's online reputation system.

Also, for players who enjoy racing in the game room, the 1.2 patch removes the need for an internet connection to host local games over LAN. First up, it improves the game’s multiplayer, optimizing online play and removing the frequent crashes many players suffered on older Windows machines (such as Windows 98 and ME).
