    Default Random HD Questions that don't need a thread of their own.

    Does the thrust powerup effect get reduced by the magnetic strips?

    Is there a 'fast start' key press combination?

    why we cannot plane any more while pushing on bottom at the moment of the jumps like psone opus ??(here the ship always falls down very heavily if we do not make a loop in air)?
    why we don't see any more the weapons on the collects boxes (different colors according to weapons)?
    regrettableā€¦

    i'm going to ask the same question and start a thread about...so the old metod ( keep the thrust at 3/4 of the bar and then at the GO press quickly ) is gone forever?

    i'm too used with W3O , HD is really a great game, but actually i have some time too get used with all these "new" differences...
    i've played w3o til yesterday, at truth also this morning i've play it alot ,i'm a nostalgic one ...but WO HD is Too gorgeous and amazing

    WO HD is the devil!

    Might as well ask here, seeing as it is a questions thread.

    What do the panels on the track do. Call me a nub if you want, but I didn't really notice them while playing last night.

    I forgot, I had one other question: how long do mines and bombs hang around if no-one sets them off?

    In past versions it's been ~ 10 seconds.

    Probably the same now...

    Recently I was in a race (offline) and I was in first, and as I came around for lap 2, I saw a bomb in the distance, which then exploded itself before I could get to it. Definitely wasnt set off by a ship, so maybe when the race leader comes toward them, they disappear (spectacularly!).

    It coul'dve just been a bug though if no one else has experienced this.

    If you prefer a visual cue, the red bar that moves across behind the 3,2,1 countdown can be used. The moment the red bar reaches the right hand side of the countdown display you mash the throttle

    nub
    in modes where weapons are enabled, you will see red Xs on the track, when you pass over these a weapon or item will become available on your craft
    The blue ^ shaped panels give you a small speed boost when passed over

    I was hoping someone would start a thread like this!

    I can tell from the vids that you don't "stick" to the walls when you hit them anymore, like in Pure and Pulse, which is damn good. But does this mean they re-implemented scraping (getting a speed boost for just barely riding the wall, like in 2097 and W30 - makes about as much sense as barrel-rolling, but I loved it all the same) or is that still out?

    And concerning Zone mode, when do the zone speeds stop increasing? I know in Pure it was ~ zone 65, but maybe because of the better hardware it has been increased for PS3?


    Thanks guys!

    Default Anybody know how to check online kills?

    Does anybody know if the data from your online gaming is both kept on your hard drive and able to be checked [stats wise]other than time playing game?

    Reason being,I'd like to know how many online opponents I've eliminated to see how many more are need to achieve the AG Assassin Trophy.

    It's AG league hunting season.

    As far as I know there isn't a way at the moment. But I'm sure if they update the website, that is one of the stats they will have on the website. I'm hoping they can flesh out the records section of the game to include more stats.

    again i have a couple of question about racing mechanics, about the sidestep i have notice that sometimes it isn't so responsive , sometimes i pull the trigger two times in the right maner and the ship get some vital istants before sidesteping, i wonder if it has to do with the handling of the ship, the sensibility of the air breaks or something other , or maybe there's something i do wrong...

    the harder you tap, the wider the sideshift - maybe reduce the sensitivity of the airbrakes?

    Hold back your citicism, this topic isn't about me

    Any of you noticed that Harimau blue livery's pilot is a white ghost? Or am I just tripping?

    EDIT: I realize this doesn't require a thread of its own, can it be moved to http://www.wipeoutzone.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5273? Sorry about that!

    hey whats the deal with the global ranking? do your time trial/speed lap/zone times/scores have nothing to do with your overall rank and it all depends on how quickly you made it to legend?

    yepp the online ranking system is pretty useless, but if you check out connavars superb leaderboard on the top of the WO-HD section of theforum you will get a much more accurate picture of acctual skill.
