Fantastic news about the Zone mode using default tracks. I'm really looking forward to Eliminator, I was hoping for this game mode in pure.

[infoxicated]

Eliminator was one of the things Colin wanted to get into Pure, but time constraints meant it got dropped. I'm glad to see it back, too - it'll be a blast online.

[Riccardo Raccis]

Oooh yeah. I like to be destructive in Wipeout. Dunno why. I'm a complete pacifist in real life, but somehow I just love playing dirty in the digital world

[Hellfire_WZ]

Really like what I'm hearing, and all those game modes will really keep us busy online.

[Zerow]

No disruption bolt...

****ing YES!

Wonder what the returning weapon will be? Let it be the flamethrower or proton cannon, pwetty, pwetty pleease?!

[Sausehuhn]

It won't be the flamethrower that's for sure

[benjahman]

Thank you, wonderful!!

[kowareta|vojeet]

Yes, finally Elimenator!
"Predefined events," more atmosphere.
"A new HUD that reacts dynamically," nice.
"Gone is the Disruptor weapon," what a bummer!
"But we have three new weapons and one returning weapon," ???

[Mobius]

Force Wall, Force Wall!!! Its the only weapon i can think of...as...oh...bugger, i forgot about the Fusion arsenal...

I like what i'm hearing here. Gonna have to fork out for a 2gb stick soon

the Lan is quite obscure to me, we were talking about that with Michael through MSN, wireless or with cables connected to the routeur or 1 pilot connected by usb to the routeur and the others connected to him ??
If it's with cable maybe a multi-switch usb for your routeur will be needed if you want to have a stable 8 pilots fight on a same room, but ermm that sounds weird cause usb psp cables are not long at all : 8 dancing in a close circle around the God Routeur.

8,7 even 6 players on a same room ( not talking about Kai here) and Pure wasn't playable due to massives slowdowns ( psp limitations for sure, imo) so How can Pulse solve this problem, getting less detailed tracks & background to let us play really with lagfree and no more slowdowns at 8 or will it be like Pure with its 5 players limitations?

[infoxicated]

Remember that the network play on Pure was based on the early versions of the ad-hoc network libraries. Things have improved a lot since then. Pulse levels also have less polys than Pure levels which allows for closer racing, hopefully without the risk of slowdown.
