10 Things I hate about WipEout Pulse

[Echthroi]

well, I think the problem with Outpost 7, was the fact that the track in some areas were just way too ridiculously narrow[other than that portion of wide open space].

I remember in that game XGRA, there was a track with lots of wide open spaces, but it had tons of pillars in between that you had to dodge. I think that would have worked out better in creating a challenge. The rest just needed to be a littttle wider.

As far as bugs and glitches go, in eliminator mode, or if there's just too many weapons flying around at once, the sound starts to skip.

Other than that...Pulse hasn't froze on me...ever. Runs clean as a whistle.

There is too low amount of FPS in some scenes (especially in Eliminator Mode on tracks with transparant track surfacing) :-

[archman]

Yes, NightArh, I believe you. We love OFW, and we love to suffer from low fps.

[NightArh]

I am not so strong in English what does mean abbreviation OFW? Original FirmWare? Or something else?

[MrSmadSmartAlex]

It stands for Official Firmware, and CFW stands for Custom Firmware, but we're not to discuss that here, or we get our wrists slapped!

[NightArh]

One more thing... I have 82 audio tracks on MS in Wipeout folder, but the game recognizes only 30

[KIGO1987]

I can tell you one of the ten things i hate about Pulse. One is when bloody Mr Croatian nudges me off the track on Tech De Ra twice in one race. Other than that Pulse is pretty ****ing awesome.

[MrSmadSmartAlex]

@KIGO - hahah! Yeah, getting smashed around by arch is one of the things that I hate about Pulse too (or maybe all 10)!

@NightArh - The game just does only recognise 30 tracks. It says it in the manual somewhere. Also, make sure they're .mp3 - I was well ****ed off when I found that none of my .wma tracks showed up

I don't think there are really 10 things I hate about it though. Only the constant ****ing respawns get to me. I even get them in the middle of the track!?!
Overall though, it's up there with the best games of all time IMO.

[Avenger2197]

Just to answer Nightarh's post:
Pulse can ONLY recognize 30 tracks in the custom playlist. I believe the manual states this on what to do.(not sure)

So, unfortunately, you'll have to pick out the 30 best tracks out of your 82. It was hard for me to decide when I did it, as I wanted as much of my music collection as possible. Ahhhh...choices, choices....

[NightArh]

Me too I did the same

[archman]

I hate the thing that I need to play the game on the "default" cpu online.

[The Mirage]

You know, the one thing i hate is the DLC problem. It's not right for people in Europe to get it and we people in America CAN'T! I like Mirage, but because of the DLC problem, i CAN'T race with it. very ironic. well. i hope i find a way to get them or i could just argue with Playstation. and yep, some tracks are very boring. i feel like im wasting my time more than enjoying the thrill

[ACE-FLO]

Boring? Care to elaborate? Coz you can only get bored of a track once you've mastered it... and I see no evidence of mastery, on your part...

... Pulse, boring? er - No!

[leungbok]

Yeah true, Ace ! But it's boring to race tracks without improving, hard games are usualy boring, because it needs will to improve, what a boring concept !!

[NightArh]

Wanna something new in Pulse... Oh. I ve just remembered one thing... I am still without DLC

[ACE-FLO]

It can get boring if you don't have the will to improve your piloting skillset - true, very true! Cheers Leungbok!

Night - Aah! The DLC! lol! I don't have it either

[AppleJack]

I don't play Pulse much. If I do more than a few races my hands tend to cramp up and makes it hard to play

The only thing that irritates me about Pulse is Sony's idiocy in not lettung US players get the DLC (or putting out the PS2 version in the US). I have naver understood why they flat-out refuse to let US players have the DLC, even though Pulse itself is available on PSN for download. I personally like Harimau, but I'll never get to race with it on Pulse because it's in one of the DLC packs and the morons at Sony don't want the US players having the DLC.

[MrSmadSmartAlex]

Yeah, it really does seem that way...
To make it even more ridiculous, the DLC actually works on the US version of the game. All 4 packs combined are about 35MB or something, so it's not a bandwidth or space issue. They can't even use the "Well... uh... there's no market for them in the US." excuse, because they went and put the game up there for download.
There's really no excuse for them not putting those packs on the US PSN Store. Unless there's some licensing issue, but I can't think what that could possibly be...

[ACE-FLO]

Could it be that Sony are asses it does sound quite probable - this love hate relationship with sony reminds me of my relationship with my x-gf... schit happens, but its a passion we can't do without LOL
