Apparently when you die online you respawn.

WTF??
Someone explain this....you can turn it off right?
WHAT THE FLYING ****?! Now this is just... wrong...
Seriously, who's the ****ing idiot that came up with that idea?! He deserves a smack in the face
This really upsets me. I'll get a petition going to have that fixed in an update ASAP! Aaaaaaargh!!! :-
EDIT: I apologize for the harsh accusations in this post - thank you Colin for providing insight into this issue in the petition thread.

Ah that soothes the soul Lance, totally unrealistic in every possible way, just how Wipeout should be.
Chill the hell out guys about the online respawn... yeah I don't like it either but grow up...
well I don't really understand the difficulty behind turning off respawn (the problem of host quitting is the same wether he is playing or he is dead, just the context which is different) but if we could turn it off in the future, I've nothing to complain for the moment.
Why the respawn is so fast is another point which bugs me (nearly no handicap for having been destroyed ?). It is even quicker than Motorstorm respawn (but which game isn't ^_~)
Yeah but does it start you on a head start just like if you were to fall of the track and then respawn, or does it start you motionless... cause then you'd have to speed up...
Yes please let this not coninue, I don't like this respawning idea...
Good for you eLhabib... You the man!!

Yes those two screen shots are just unbelievable. It think the way the Mirage ships structure is set up is that it would have dense heavy strong steel connection, the front of the ship to the rear pilots cabin section to achieve a low and even center of gravity. While the curved structure at the front of ship would have some light kevlar and/or polyeutherane material to contunue the correct weight balance.
Icarus looks hell sweet. If this is the most fastest ship in the game (that doesn't require a DL pack) i will be using the ship by default
Yes indeed and it so looks like Lance his avatar!
Not quite like my avatar, but pretty damned nice!
IIIIIIIICCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAASSSSSS
Actually, Lance, the new Icaras looks like your avatar was the concept sketch for it. The front is a little beefier, but other than that, exactly the same shape. Down to the little antenna thingie under the nose. Lookie here!
Yeah, I'd saved that pic already. Thanks for it. Pretty sleek alrighty. A classic design. But not the quite the right colour-scheme. Needs reddish-purple and pink. And a slash of orange. Mine is even sleeker and has a bigger.... thruster.
Lance, it looks ALOT like your avatar pic lol.
My avatar is a reduced-size reproduction of an original concept sketch done for Wipeout 3. So it's ooooooold.
But great!
i still can't seem to find a video of the new crashing. seen the online crashes where it respawns you, but i wanna see offline crashes plz.
The video posted by Darkdrium shows it.
Since you respawn after the ship crashed and made a complete stop, you respawn without speed. But it is regain very fast.
