I do not believe that BR's are necessary for the TT and SL in the campaign. They are needed to set the best scores, but I have been obtaining golds in all the way up through Meltdown now without them (except in the most obvious places like jumps)

Good for you then. No BR's for a clean racer, do you think it is necessary to use them online?
Well I agree with you up to a point,that point being that Darkfaerytales has never played Pure or Pulse,so he could actually be oblivious to knowing that one is expected to do barrel rolls,in your words "In the most obvious places",if you get my drift.:D
Well they can save you from going from 1st place to last,and no matter how much you might loathe BR's, they are now part of the game and people will use them to their advantage.
Online has really changed the pecking order,the old ways of winning just by keeping as perfect a line as possible just won't win you online races anymore.
Those kids brought up on Pure and Pulse will see you as easy meat and just fly right past you,or get so far ahead of you that you won't stand a chance unless you BR yourself.
I'm of the old school,but I can't halt progress [?] so I might as well join them,at least I'll have a fighting chance of retaining some dignity by not finishing stone motherless last.
thank you black! i hope that yuo're right about download contect expecially for more ships...
actually i like barrel rolling, i know it is a maneuver not so popular among the most, but i like and i try to do it everytime i can , i'm on the right way to master barrels i think since sometimes i can do some using simple turbo boost and the dunes ( i don't know if it's a right terms anyway i mean the "waves" in some tracks ) in vineta k for exemple
Could someone from SL say whether the tournament points bug is likely to be fixed?
HD plays so much better than Pulse online, and for that I`m grateful. But the points bug ruins tournament play. Tonight I did an enjoyable 12 race tour v 5 guys. One of them fought hard with me until race 10 when there was no mathematical way he could catch - so he quit :rolleyes: Then the points got inverted - despite winning 9 of the races I finished 4th of the remaining 4 in the tour and the guy who should have been last won it. I got the endurance trophy, but this bug makes tournaments kind of pointless, if the idea is to score as many points as you can. Every time someone has quit a tour I`ve been in this has happened.
Also does anyone know of a way to tell how many races there are in a tour before you enter? It would be very convenient to be able to tell at a glance, and sometimes 12 races don`t fit in.

I only just twigged to this myself.
When you go online any particular race/tournament which you highlight [goes blue], have a look down in the bottom right and this information will be given to you about the highlighted one.
single race or tournament....speed class....weapons on/off.....list of track[s]
Sometimes you have to be quick,as while you are reading that info at the bottom the game could start, and then another race becomes the highlighted one as the list moves up. :D
You could always use the filter on the hosting page,[by pressing the triangle button] if you want to preselect what type of race/speed class/number of players/location of host [country]
Thanks for the info :+ the problem for me is that the tour has usually started or scrolled by the time I`ve read the information. Would be useful to be able to know straight away whether the tour is 4 or 12 races, or something else, because I don`t really mind what tracks it`s on. Unless I`m still missing something. :dizzy
It does,just have another look down it the far right of the screen...if it's a Tournament it will show a track name [say Moa therma] and it will have 3/5 meaning Moa Therma is the 3rd track raced in a 5 race Tournament.
I must admit that I find WOHD game instructions are at a bare minimum, and a few sub menus explaining exactly where to find things and how things operate would be welcome....maybe in an update [Hint Hint Colin]
Ok i've played since the first Wo, and today i found that there is slipstreaming in this one...When did they add slipstreaming in the serie?
There is?! Haven't noticed so far! :?
