It's called cheating. :(
Before on Pure ( less in pulse since acceleration is way faster than pure)when i had a dead spot (i.e. 5 consecutive mines) i sideshift ( left or right) to get a mini boost speed then try to hit the nearest boostpad
But yeah like MArtin said AI clearly cheating
Well, that makes me feel better. I had tried everything. Letting off the thrust for a moment and firing back up, etc, etc, etc. Nothing worked. As long as it's just the AI cheating, I can deal with that.
Why do weapons set the back of my ship on fire? I thought I had an energy shield that stopped everything making contact with the actually body of the craft? Makes no sense.
Since everyone is so obsessed with making Wipeout realistic, don't you think all this burning and flaming of my ship is going to cause a failure at some point no?
The fire effect behind your craft is most likely due to your aircraft overtaking the weapon trail. So if you fire a missile and it leaves a fiery trail, your craft will catch up with the trail. Maybe SL should make the trails shorter, or just make it dissapear once it hits a craft
What? How can there be a trail if the missile hits the back of my ship? Surly any trail the missile left would end there instantly at the point of impact?
I might have misunderstood your question. I was under the impression that the missile was from your craft, not someone else's.
actually you've pointed up an interesting fact, indeed it should work this way, your ship had an energy shield and in fact when you pick up the "shield" from the weapon pads it is in truth the temporary SHIELD of the SHIELD, the point is that as i think SL has inteded , when your ship reach zero energy don't explode immediately( as in 2097 ), but it just simple devoid of protection so what's up next cause to your ship to be detroyed, a simple collision at 700 km/h realistically talking sure cause such irreparable damage,
i think the flame effect is one of the cool effect ever in truth, but i don't know if it had much sense
It makes no sense at all - it`s just pretty. I`m with Rapier Racer. The whole thing makes absolutely no sense if you really start to think about it.
Or as Rob has said - it`s the video game of the real event. It`s like Sensible Soccer compared to the real life Premier League. But that doesn`t stop it being the coolest game series ever. :)
Can someone explain the button sensitivity settings for me? I want the acceleration button to have the most sensitivity it can get. So do I want it set to 100% or 10%? It seems like I rest my thumb in the X button and the square at the same time and half the time I find myself slowing down because I'm not pushing the acceleration button down enough.
Never mind. I found it earlier in this thread. Sorry. I swear I looked through it though. :-) Assuming I understand it correctly for the most sensitivity I need it set to 10%.
