WipEout Action!

[lunar]

exclusive video footage from the F3600 league as the Tetsuo twins battle for the championship. See and feel the fear.... with one life left on SilverStream.....



Bad piloting excuses: head cold, and virtually first go with Auricom on Rapier, and not found Negcon settings yet. Sorry Arial....

Occasional bad editing excuse: not much time!

anyway, hope you enjoy this montage of action from the AG archives!

Good video

Struggling on rapier? Tell me about it. I recently popped back on the original WO and I'm having trouble on Venom. You'd swear I had never played the game before.

Still, there is something wonderful about the original WO. It's so fluid. Punishing, yet relaxing. I'll download this vid later and take a look.

[Asayyeah]

Here it's the same Dogg Thang , even on venom i am acting like a noob , this is like another game for me, but i must reckon only those who have started their WipEout experience with it can race it so well : Jay, Al, Stephen...
But i am sure your video mate spk will bring me some energy & courage to fight you into the Pal table

I am going to DL it, now

[Zerow]

Downloading as I write this.

Having only received the original a week ago I am having trouble with vecter - heh, I am an ubernoob

My trouble is on the last track, the the ice track - i forget it's name

insertcoin, only took 8mins to dload if you are using broadband.

7 and 1/2 minutes too long

[rdmx]

heh heh, wasn't about the length of the download, I didn't want to blow my download quota xD
I've downloaded it already.

[Dogg Thang]

Q Dmc12, if you're having trouble with Vemon Silverstream and are just looking to get through it (rather than going for the absolute best times - something I know little about), I'd recommend switching to Feisar. Feisar's handling is made for Silverstream and is just about the only craft I can get through Silverstream in without messing up.

[q_dmc12]

for some reason feisar just seems too responsive - i have trouble getting through the tracks before it with feisar

Thanks for the advise though

[Medusa]

Nice footage! How very close. Reminds me of when I finally broke that Silverstream deadlock on Rapier championship mode - the video has me nearly sweating in nervousness at the last curve...
(reminds self - it's JUST a video, breathe...)
What a sweet game.

shame is I had forgotten that a top 3 on Silverstream isn`t necessarily good enough, and you have to win the championship too. I was surprised and a bit gutted to see game over. Once I got into third place, thinking that was what I needed, I just turned to jelly. I could just use AGS or Feisar, but it`s very satisfying to punt the heavyweights round Silversteam - kind of like a cross between AG Racing and Curling. Auricom is the most fun ship, I think, and Qirex is just insane. Your description about the moose in the "is it the best" thread is spot on.

[Asayyeah]

didn't make a comment on your great video Stephen , i was a bit away from WZ , but i show it to french team who was visiting me quickly this friday/saturday : and we all love it Congrats for the editing : Pro stuff !

That's why I have Auricom as my avatar. So much fun flying it through Silverstream, or anywhere. I don't use Qirex in the original W/O, but I never use Auricom at any other time. Except perhaps on Phantom Speed on Pure, once I buy it.

I love this video, it inspired me to buy the original Wipeout.

Nice. I love watching other people play.

Hey Lunar, what's the song?
It's awesome I want it!
"Watch yourself! Turn to dust!"

[username]

As soon as i get home from coll, im going to download this! (the networked computers use the same ip addy i think!).
cant wait now

[lunar]

It`s "Turn to Dust" by the Freestylers. buy the album! and support the most undervalued pop and dance music geniuses I can think of. It`s also available on Amazon. They also made this, which is even better and deserves to be in everyone`s collection. Always makes me smile, and possibly even dance, which is a scary idea.

[supersocks]

Now what is that strange square around position number at 5:30 - 5:44?

[lunar]

tricks of the trade But done badly in a hurry. The Silverstream bit was not all from the same race, but it was important to keep the narrative. I was surprised no-one spotted it sooner
