Wipeout 2048 - Feature requests (racebox, custom controls, etc)
If you wish to put forward a request for a feature in Wipeout 2048 (eg racebox, custom controls, etc), please send a direct message (NOT by posting comments on articles) through the official Wipeout 2048 Facebook page. However, please be specific with your requests, just saying "racebox" and "custom controls" isn't particularly helpful. Go into detail, mention your own control schemes, what it is about the current controls schemes that you don't like, etc... Giving the studio more flexibility to work with will increase the likelihood of these features being included further down the line.
Please be aware that there is no guarantee that the studio will definitely act upon it, but trust me when I say that your messages are in good hands. Ami Nakajima is really fighting our corner on this one. The more specifics and details you guys can give, the better our chances of seeing some positive movement.

If you do not use Facebook, please send me a PM and I'll contact Ami on your behalf.
If you wish to discuss feature requests, please use existing threads or create a new one.
Thanks guys
If 2048 is ported to PS3 as a WipEout HD addon, then here are my ideas for more prototypes.
--- IF THIS IS IN THE WRONG THREAD, I APOLOGIZE IN ADVANCE ---
I am really looking forward to seeing WipEout 2048 get ported to the Playstation 3. I am not sure if it will be, but like I just said I have high hopes.
I have some new ideas for new prototype ships for the other teams in the event WipEout 2048 one day becomes an expansion for WipEout HD.
Icarus 'They need to catch us first' Prototype:
Advantage: Instead of barrel rolls consuming energy, they will restore energy on a successful landing.
Disadvantage: The very device that gives the ship the ability to recharge its shields through barrel rolls required so much space that the loading bays for weaponry had to be removed. Thus, it is unable to pick up weaponry (Turbos and Shields do not count, mines and bombs are debatable).
Goteki 45 "Go get 'em" Prototype:
Advantage: Shield Energy is restored by dealing damage to other contenders
Disadvantage: Weapons cannot be absorbed. Use it or lose it.
EG-X Prototype
Advantage: Using stolen stealth technology, this ship is able to cloak.
Disadvantage: Weapons cannot be used while cloaked. Cloak consumes shield energy.
Instuctions: Press L1 to Cloak. Unfortunately, this means that you can't do combat flips in Eliminator.
Harimau Bio-Ship Prototype (still partially inorganic)
Advantage: Shields regenerate overtime, attributres adjust overtime
Disadvantage: Cannot absorb weaponry.
Misc. Information: Rumor has it that the ship's organic components contain trace amounts of tiger DNA left over from one of Harimau's ealier projects. This is yet to be confirmed, but it might explain why the ship has tiger stripes.
