View Full Version : Euro Pure Sinucit glitch discussion

Prologue: I’ve chosen a standard Vector race on Sinucit with the Harimau.

Now. Immediately after the loading screen when the camera appears on the starting grid I hear an out of place sound effect. It’s the same electronic sound I hear when I’m blown off the track and picked up by the wusswagon. Then as the camera moves down (at a faster pace than usual), I notice my craft if out of line. Instead if being in it’s grid position, it’s positioned right in the centre of the track.

I’ve done some testing and it’s only happening on Sinucit, regardless of which craft I use. The Gamma Pack isn’t installed, so there’s nothing there meddling with it.

Anyone else experiencing problems, or glitches?

I get that whenever i race on it. It's not a game breaker though is it?

I get exactly the same thing, handy in a way as you can go straight up the middle with a boost start lol

I must be overreacting, but this just feels tainted now.

Think I might sell it.

I'm pretty sure this has never happened to me in the US or JP version.

My US copy works perfectly. It's just the Euro version that's buggin'.

I have the same issue, but firstly i thought it was intentional, then i realised that the cameara pans around the grid its suppoed to be on. I suppose it doesn't result in any bad game behavior.

Hmmm, maybe the Euro copy does have a prob or two but I appreciate the Fired Up playable demo :wink:

Well Seek has this aswell and I experienced it for the first time today (finally upgraded my firmware). It's no big deal, doesn't affect gameplay but it's odd that it happened when there was no glitch in the JP or US versions.

lol I wondered why my ship was in the middle of that track at the start, yes I boost right past the lot of them, then they all come charging at my ship and I get a good bashing :evil:

Sorry bout the extra thread Dogg Thang, didn't realise it had already been discussed, I know, I know I should've used the search function, anyway I wouldn't consider it a problem, a little bit weird but certainly not worth selling the game over as Aesop suggests.

you know where I said my copy didn't have this problem? well it turns out I had my NTSC copy in at the time :oops: my copy does have this problem on Sinucit in vector...

Did I get this right, this glitch only appears in vector class?
-well then you guys can really care less, the first few days of wipEout are really the only time you will ever race vector. Once you move on to flash, you will never look back, believe me.

My copy bugs out on Vector and Venom, at least. Well, that's as far as I got before logging onto ebay. It's impurities like this that annoy me.

Hey, Dogg. Was it only when running Wipeout on Firmware 2.0 that you noticed the glitch?

aesop, I think you're makin a mountain out of a molehill on this one dude, it has no effect on the way the game plays at all, no offence but it's just a minor, minor glitch, not even a real bug, just a glitch.

Aesop I'm on 1.5 - I couldn't actually run Euro Pure on 1.0. However, I very much doubt it's a firmware-specific glitch. Like Seek says though, it's not really a big deal I reckon.

I was doing a flash tourney today and the glitch was there too, not bothered really it doen't take anything away from the gameplay

I've already said I'm overreacting. I do that with the little things.
