I can imagine if you've been playing Fusion for the best part of two months, Wipeout 3's handling will be difficult to master.

Since I spent most of tonight playing 3SE, I can sympathise there!

Best thing to do is take it easy in the Vector or Venom classes first. Also use the up and down buttons on the d-pad, or pull back/push forward on the stick to raise or lower the pitch of your craft. Wipeout 3's handling was a bit more sophisticated than Wipeout Fusion, believe it or not, in that the ship responds quite well to where you point the nose.

For instance, if you're going round a downhil left-hander, such as the spiral in Mega Mall, you'd want to push your nose down as well as turning to the left in order to take the corner more smoothly.

I'm hardly the best at the game, though - perhaps if Al Sartwell drops in then he can elaborate further.

Best of luck with it - it is worth sticking at, though - it's a great game.

this as well as all the other wipeouts are difficult after playing fusion in that well, they are very different, but if you could ask me specific questions about a certain track I could help out--hopefully

hi stindah.
i'd listen to infox's advice about tilting the nose of the ship; try pressing down on the d-pad as you go round corners as well, you'll notice the difference straught away.

[stin]

Thanks guys I will do that. That sounds a lot of work to concentrate on the corners. Anyway its takes practice!

Start with the slower class races. Try the time trials as well.

Fusion's handling totally destroy's the ability to play Wipeout 3.
he handling is crazy!

Does anyone here find the handling of Ships in Wipeout 3 Empty? I mean with Fusion I get the impression I can feel every bit of the ship... with Wipeout 3 I can't feel a thing!

Weird...

You talking about playing with a NegCon right? I find that the Dual Shock pads have no feel to them as well. Regardless if the rumble effect is lost, I still think that's the best way to operate a F-3600 to F-7200 ship.

[Confusion]

I wish they would re-release a new NegCon... one with dual shock and a few more buttons. If they released it to conincide with a new wipeout release too...

why wait? we could use a new negcon with a better button configuration on all current wipeouts and a lot of other games, too. besides, a new wipEout could be a long time coming.

Have you played WOF yet?

Dude you can play your PAL discs on a modded PS2. Just gotta get the tools.
The only out of pocket cost to you are the games and cd-r's.

i don't want to mod, and in any case, there is an NTSC version coming that is reputed to be better than the PAL one.

i can wait for this better solution.
