Well in response to his question "Who does not have WipEout HD"
From the comments of members on this thread, I'd say: lots of people. That is if there are many more online players, I would not know. So it's not entirely worthless, and just like I guessed it gives good exposure to WipEout HD as everyone is trying it out. :)
Next month I think they get a discount on Fury.
never received any msg so far.
but it is annoying when you are battling for the top spot and you suddenly find them blocking you or leaving bombs and mines.
kinda remind me of wipeout pure where the bombs and mines didn't disappear after a lap, like in hd. lol
another funny thing is i checked by chance a profile of a lvl5 pilot and he/she said on the about me section: ' WipEout HD Legend' !!! :bomb:g
omg, there is no respect...
hahaha, I Fricken Lol'd Elf
Yeah, they are E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E!
Reminds me of of the September that never ended :D
It's nice to see so many on-line, but I'd rather have 10 people that actually finish the races, than a 1000 quitting as soon as they're 5 sec behind. On the bright side, I would never had thought that the day would arrive where I win a race with a +10sec difference :lol
Not all of 'em are noobs :g seriously, I was racing with my Killer_LoopZ account yesterday against a rank 6 pilot (PSN id SUSLAW) and he managed to take a win off me :eek so I checked his trophy collectionj and the git had completed the campaign back in September 2008. Turns out he only just managed to get online with the game this week :D awesome stuff, so I added him and told him bout WZ :rock
Heh, yeah, Klocki_LEGO and Sausehun came around and slapped me a few moments later, so everything is back to normal. I even encountered two below 10 rank players that seemed to know what they were doing, so it's not all bad. Still many quitters among them though.
I enjoy those new players. If you're too fast, then just give them 15 seconds headstart
before starting the race, or try to kill the 2nd player ... been having some fun this way,
and everyone can finish the race too.
Right ive got 8people now on my PSN friends list with the Plus package. Makes me think whether people just have alot of disposable income and just decided to buy the crap, or whether this is a good deal or not.
