Last updated Yesterday at 21:41 by Stan 1 comment

The D.R.I.V.E. system in The War Within introduces a new way to navigate through Undermine, bringing dynamic driving mechanics, customization options, and missions.

1.

What is the D.R.I.V.E System?

D.R.I.V.E. System (Dynamic and Revolutionary Improvements to Vehicular Experiences) is a special feature first added in Patch 11.0 that includes:

  • The G-99 Breakneck Icon G-99 Breakneck kart — a quick new ground mount.
  • Dynamic driving mechanics like turbo, drifting, and job tasks.
  • Customization for your kart's color, engine, wheels, turbo, and horn.
2.

How Do You Unlock Your G-99 Breakneck?

Progress through Chapter 2 of the Undermine Campaign. Begin the No More Walkin' Here quest at the Incontinental Hotel. Follow up with License Not Required offered by Nanny Talullah, which teaches you how to drive, boost, and handle shipping tasks. Completing these intro quests will award you the G-99 Breakneck Icon G-99 Breakneck mount.

Account-Wide Access

Once you finish the questline on your main, every alt on your account will automatically gain access to the G-99 Breakneck Icon G-99 Breakneck in Undermine.

3.

Does the G-99 Breakneck Work Exclusively in Undermine?

Yes, the G-99 Breakneck Icon G-99 Breakneck only works in Undermine. However, this is Blizzard's first dynamic ground mount, so chances are it will work in other zones in the future, just like Skyriding.

G-99 Breakneck Driving Mechanics

When you hop in the G-99 Breakneck Icon G-99 Breakneck, you will see a new vehicle bar with the following action buttons:

  • Start Job Icon Start Job (Key 5): Start or cancel a Shipping and Handling task.
  • Eject! Icon Eject! (Key 6) Dismount button.

Turbo and Drifting

You start with 100 Turbo. Boost Icon Boost uses some Turbo and make you go extra fast for a short time. Turbo does not regenerate automatically. You refill it by drifting (holding Spacebar). Drifting helps you take sharper turns.
