Hope so internal view and Oculus support...
man that would be absolutely nuts. I think i'd puke after a every race with oculus and internal view lol.
Again, I would only play Internal View if I could see tje inside of tje cockpit and maybe the nose od my ship. And by inside of the cockpit, I do not mean a sprite plastered onto the HUD, I mean something that is fully modeled and that moves indepently of the camera (even better if I could see the pilot's hands on the controls).
I wouldn't mind an internal cockpit view and Oculus support, but the current internal view is awesome. Wipeout is all about speed, and having your eyeballs scraping the track really adds to that. Case in point:

First person view without something to indicate where your body/vehicle is in relation to the terrain is always asking for trouble though. That is why so many people do so poorly at first person shooters. And if you add going really fast to the mix, the motion sickness would like to have a word with you (some people, like me, just can't seem to get motion sick, but not everyone is that lucky). Games like Mirror's Edge (first person movement) at least have a crosshair in the center of the screen for your eyes to use as a point of reference. Again, so that you don't get sick.
Sure, some people get motion sickness (I don't), but playing with the current internal view really isn't as hard as you make it out to be. It's easy to judge where you are and corners are way easier to line up. Granted, barrel-rolling through a mine field while boosting can get confusing, but it makes it even sweeter when you come flying out the other side in one piece.
On the topic of Slamjet Racing: More wipeout? Yay! Problem? This isn't wipeout.
Or to put it this way: I absolutely love the wipeout series of games (minus Fusion, obviously. I mean, really.. who the Hell thought it would be a good idea to have trees in the middle of the track?) to an unhealthy degree. On the other hand - I find Formula 1 to be insanely boring. Seriously - I hate it with a passion. This game looks too much like Formula 1 and too little like Wipeout. Either make a Wipeout game or a Formula 1 game, not both.
I'm honestly a little worried if the devs actually understand what makes a wipeout game click. The one that got canned when Studio Liverpool was closed down was apparently "something completely different", or something to that effect, which makes me wonder: WHY? All they needed was new tracks, shinier graphics and refined handling. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I agree with DrMan for the most part.
But then again, Hey DrMan this is ONLY CONCEPT!
My problem is if we get FURY like tracks, as have been shown as 'Audition Tracks', at least 'Graphic Wise', for F/Fusion.
I've said my piece.
If the tracks are like that, I will consider any racing game unplayable at top speed = pointless
guys, the devs are ex SL (so let's trust them on this) - and as Blackwiggle said above - it's only concept... I just want barrel rolls and new tracks - the ships though, need to be more streamlined and less car looking in my opinion. They are a bit ugly. I hope the final version will be something that gets us saying "oooh" rather than "oh maaan".

Yep - The Designers Republic have signed up for Formula Fusion... Ok, I'd be lying if I said I was not excited! Sheeeet, can you believe this? :nod awesome!Quote:
“I always said we’d never do another Wipeout,” said Ian Anderson, founder of The Designers Republic.
what is not awesome is this: http://www.fusiondatacom.com/news.formulafusion.php uber meh! :blarg
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited about the DR as well.
They turned the original Wipeout into the New, Improved, Wipeout2097.
The Designers Republic are Demi God's to new gamers ,if not GOD's to we OLD gamers.
Hopefully the same design ethic of 2097 and it's Ilk will hold true.
We will be watching you. :nod
