    When it comes to weapons I know what you mean. Rockets and bombs-in-your-face being the worst offenders for me, when I get slowed down almost to a grinding halt :/

    There's a good chance I'll get PSP2 anyway, so might as well pick up this WO game while I'm at it ;]

    Weapons don't slow u down that much if you have learned how to recover from hits. I used to hate weapons and now I just love them.

    Psp-NGP is over rated I think. We need 3D without he glasses and no ports please. SONY listen up you silly people "WE DON'T WANT A PORT YOU MASONS"

    "if you have learned how to recover"?
    Nonsense, and patronising "you just don't know how to play yet" kind of comments won't change that. The sideshift trick that you're talking about barely helps with weapons hits, if at all. The weapons slow you down enough that one hit can easily end a race, unless the player hit is much more skilled than the others, and that's crap for a racing game (and it is a racing game, even if it also has combat, because the winner is the one who finishes first). So they're overpowered.

    Really now? LOL. Whatever man. I can recover fast from weapon hits. That's all I know. I don't want to enter a argument with u or anything. I might say something that can ban me. It already happened once because I couldent control myself.

    Again, you say you can, but you don't say how. If you'd care to share and/or demonstrate this secret technique that you "just know" and that's escaped even the fastest players, I guess I'll stand corrected on that point. But until then, it looks like you're just bragging about nothing.

    Maybe using a piranha or a triakis helps to recover fast after a weapon hit (maybe lag also helps ), but i don't know any other "technic" that helps (sideshifting after a weapon's hit helps to avoid falling of the tracks at some places but not to restart quickly).
    All depends what you call "recover fast", if it's more than a second, it's slow

    I agree as 1 second can seem like an eternaty when you just want to get on the case.

    Talking

    Haha yep. If the ship goes unresponsive for even a second, time slows down while you're hammering the buttons "Come on ****! Move! ".

    i dont think ion is referring to a secret mythical secret but is talking general.
    there multiple option on recovering from weapon hits but they all depend on what hit you and whats happeneing

    like sideshift could be used to save you from falling off the track it could be used to hit a pad you were close too when you were shot
    you could sideshift into an oppoonets way and get rammed and slow him down
    you could use a turbo or auto pilot to get yourself moving again

    i think thats the type of things he may have been talking about .


    as for ngp wipeout..cant see the point of porting over a near dead game already years old without something of a overhaul...i wouldnt be one bit tempted to spend money for this..hopefully they will add new content and fine tune racing engine and take out all those annoying glitchs.will have to wait and see what happens

    Thank u Jasmin-Jade. What u wrote is all true.

    I have permission from Ace to tell u all about rocket and missile hits and the recovery method number 1.

    When u get hit by missile or rocket just at the moment it about to hit you have to angle your ship left slightly (or right) then Side Shift Right (or left) then straighten out and keep going. This method will make your ship lose much less speed and you will get PSN messages calling u a cheat or glitcher

    Try it yourself. Once u got this method down you will be well pleased.

    Ps. Sorry for offtopic. It won't happen again.

    I never said it would do that.

    On the topic. If we get a new wipeout for ps3 then who would still want NGP and hd fury anyway! NGP is going to do badly I think. Nothing fresh or new just ports lol. The should have called it PS3Portable becuz that is what it is.
