September marked twelve years since the release of Driver: San Francisco. This exquisite open-world car action game unfortunately remains the last major installment in the series (let's not mention the mobile spin-off calledDriver: Speedboat Paradise) and it doesn't look like Ubisoft is going to resurrect the series in the near future. However, fans do not intend to abandon the brand, continuing to create modifications to its various installments. Today we want to draw your attention to one such project in the form of Felony Rework for Driver: San Francisco, as the mod recently received a new version.
The modification was originally designed to improve police chases, although over time its scope has been greatly expanded to improve most aspects of gameplay in general, without being limited only to the behavior of law enforcement officers. With the mod, we are usually chased by more cars, and their drivers behave more realistically and, for example, do not use collisions for braking and cornering. The author also removed AI bugs and and improved missions from the campaign. Felony Rework also adds many new activities to the game, based on the most popular challenges from the first three parts of the series

New version of Felony Rework is marked with the number 2.3 and brings many changes.
- The author added a crime system in the style of the one from the early installments of the series. Dangerous driving, crashes, etc. cause an increase in citizen concern, and when it reaches a sufficient level, the police are called and start looking for our car.
- The police can now make use of a number of special pursuit units.
- The list of police tactics has been expanded so that they behave more realistically.
- New mini-games in the form of so-called nightmares have been added. In them, the player is trapped in a particular car, and the world is transformed, offering new types of challenges. For example, in one we have to closely follow an ambulance, while in another lightning will hurl cars towards our vehicle.
- A number of bugs from the base game have also been fixed, and the AI has been improved.
Recall that Driver: San Francisco was released in September 2011 on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Unfortunately, the game can't even be bought digitally at the moment, so those interested in this title must look for used copies.
