    Default Thanks to all...

    Who have posted in this forum over the last 2 years. Theres such a wealth of strategy, tips, discussions, etc it helped me go from starting playing this game last week to completing all gold elite campaign earlier today. I even finished the final tourney today on the first try! Hell, I know its not a big deal, but when i first saw how fast phantom was I was truly intimidated, but now it feels normal and anything below rapier feels sluggish. So thanks to everyone for the wealth of knowledge contained within this site. Now, off to learn the tracks backwards and start on fury.
    Also thanks to all the people who have tutorials and videos up on youtube. ( hellfire_wz, dardrium 777, woopzilla, and saturn return. (reborn?) couldnt remember.

    I plan on continuing to try and get better and sometime soon maybe I can join an online race and not get embarassed. But I still need to learn the fury tracks and the hd ones in reverse.I'd like to race at a high level but my consistency is severely lacking.

    There is no such thing as being embarassed, since we all started from there
    The problem with singleplayer is that it does not prepare you for multiplayer at all; there are things and tricks that you only learn while playing online, so I basically suggest you to run some online games once in a while, even if you dont feel prepared at all.

    And remember, you dont have to start racing on Phantom from the start, some people feel obligated to do so, its bad. No one will ever make fun of you just for playing lower classes. Actually, even venom can be a pain the first times, eheh.
    Take your time

    Oh and a lower speed doesnt mean that particoular ship is crap, ERGO, dont join phantom races with a piranha hd.

    Ive already figured those thing out, but thanks for the tips... Im new to wipeout but not new to racing games of this type by any means. I use the fast ships for speed laps and TT"s, but in a real race I'm more apt to choose Assegai or Harimau. Havent really used the fury ships yet as I havene started fury and I didnt think using a ship with better stats in HD would really be helping me improve. And about getting online instead of doing offfline, i understand there are things that I'd learn only online through experience, but I do need to actually know the tracks somewhat. I know nothing at all about the fury tracks yet and the HD ones in reverse still need to be learned. Ive been online and done a few races, but as soon as a reverse or fury track is chosen my goose is cooked, LOL. BTW Ive used the piranha so little that I havent even unlocked a second livery for it yet.
