    Question WO Omega Collection - Random questions that do not need their own thread.

    Since HD/Fury and 2048 had these threads I thought its logical to have one for omega collection. This thread is for asking questions that can be easily answered without the need to post an entirely new thread about it.
    For example if the question can be answered with a single post and there is no real discussion that can be developed from it, it belongs here.

    So I'll kick us off by asking how come sometimes the exhaust trails change colour in some HD races? Sometimes fury ships have the blue exhaust trail while HD ships have red trails (and vice versa). Any ideas that can quench my curiosity?

    This seems to be a bug with the trails at the moment (at least, its been posted in the Glitches thread repeatedly ).

    Asking a question of my own, I'm currently writing a redux of the WipEout timeline, but I don't really know where to post it here on WipeoutZone. Should I post it in the Omega section, or the WipEout fanfiction section?

    Also sorry if i'm asking in the wrong place.

    That would belong in the FanFiction section since it is related to the lore of the series

    Alright I've got one.

    Anyone notice when playing 2048 online, some name tags appear orange while others stay white? Anyone know why this is?

    @Fraki,

    Ive wondered that a lot whilst playing the online of 2048 on vita.
    It seemed that whenever you had a challenge like "hit a specific player with a weapon", then this specific player's name would turn orange. However it was very buggy and sometimes there were orange names at random.

    I havent played a lot of online 2048 in the omega collection and cant recall if there are any orange names as well.

    What is the best route for the last split on sol? If you take the skill cut, you get some speed pads then a roll. If you hop off the skill cut and onto the other route, you get no speed pads but two rolls. Which one is better?

    On a whim I'd guess taking the boost pads is better because there's a row of 4 (and that's a pretty substantial boost), and if it's not actually faster it's probably temporarily safer since you're saving 15% of your shield per lap (useful in a chaotic/aggressive race I guess) and momentarily out of any real immediate line-of-fire.


    I've always tried to take the cut, but if you *really* want to find out which is faster then try some speed laps and see what gets you the better lap time.

    In Zone Mode (HD/Fury & 2048), how is your energy repleted?

    I can’t tell with certainty what does it.

    - It’s not speedpads
    - It’s not reaching a new sub-zone
    - It’s not reaching a new zone
    - It’s not avoiding to touch the walls for a certain amount of time
    - It’s not completing a lap of the track

    So what is it?

    Replenished*

    Each perfect zone replenishes 10 energy.

    Completing a perfect zone (having the zone meter go up by 1 without crashing) does it.

    edit: ah, too late

    in 2048, it only give you 8% or so energy with a perfect zone

    hop off is the fastest method, its also possible to do a BR there, but its a hard one

    if you take the way below on Sol, you can do a triple BR combo into the next lap, not possible if you choose the upper way...

    Yo guys!
    So I collected all gold medals for the HD and Fury campaign, but I only got the 2097 HUD style unlocked [very early in the campaign already, btw].
    How again do I unlock the Wip3out HUD style?

    I think it's tied to craft loyalty points if I remember correctly, any craft 10,000 points.
    But I could be wrong, as the only session I've had with the game since it's been out was unlocking all Gold against Elite on HD Campaign up to mid way through the 6th event page

    I believe, it shows you a player that killed you the last time.
