[Nosamp]

Hi all,

I'm Pete a.k.a Nosamp or 2Beards (a pic will explain if required) from Essex in the UK.
I'm old and I mostly play on my Xbox……. not a great opener I agree but bear with me….

I used to play wipEout years back (from the original up to Fusion) but slowly got tempted from PS to XB by the game releases etc *hangs head in shame*. Anyhoo I recently went to the Eurogamer Expo, spoke to Ami from Studio Liverpool (yeah I know it's gone…. WTF?) and realised how much I'd missed it.

So I went home dusted off the old PS2 and stuck in all the games and did a lap on each…… über!
Unfortunately I have lost my games saves but I've just bought a component cable and am looking forward to some better quality racing.

Oh and apparently if I'm a good boy I'll be getting a PS3 from Santa….get in!
So I'll fill in my PS details then

Funnily enough I won a Vita earlier on in the year on a trip to Sainsbury's head office (promo in the foyer for the Vita) for the fastest lap on 2048 (I think all the decent pilots didn't have a go!), unfortunately our fidge @ home broke so I sold it to get a new one…….. yeah I know, crap eh?
Anyhoo I got a trophy (I'll post a pic if you like )……. yeah, nice, whatever!
I should have seen the signs then but I've never been a massive fan of portable gaming, I like BIG!

So here I am, back to the party, a little late and it looks like everyone else is drunk, drank all the booze and the police are about to raid the place, but I'm gonna enjoy it while I can!

Cheers
Pete


(Oh and Nosamp is P Mason backwards… )

Hi Pete, welcome to the Zone

[Azurooth]

Welcome! =)

[GekkoP]

I forgot to introduce myself. WipEout newbie, never played with it before WipEout HD, and I got my PS3 a couple of months ago. So yes, I'm REALLY a newbie. But I'm almost done with Elite campaign, all gold medals, so I'm the happiest newbie around you might say. Still have to buy Fury, though.

Well, enough of it.

I've been lurking this forum for a while, seems like a great community and lots of tips in here turned out to be very helpful.

See you around.

[Colonel]

It's great to see that HD is still pulling in new players 4 years after release, it really is. Welcome to the Zone GekkoP

[GekkoP]

Thank you, Colonel.
I have to admit I usually am not a fan of racing games, I get bored pretty soon. WipEout HD is something different, maybe is the fighting, maybe is the inhuman speed. Don't know, I just love it.

Hi all,

Hello Wipeout fanatics

As a kid, i would always play wipeout 2097 and loved it. Unfortunately, that was the only wipeout game that i had until i got wipeout HD in the welcome pack. I fell in love with wipeout all over again, and bought every single wipeout game. From the first wipeout to 2048. I play them all as much as i can. My most favourite titles are Wipeout 3 SE, Pure, and HD/Fury.

Anyway, I'm most probably best at playing HD/Fury. I have beaten half of both HD and Fury campaigns on elite difficulty, have yet to finish them You could say that my skill level is just a bit higher than the elite AI, because im finding it a bit easier to beat them just recently.

On HD, im struggeling a bit with the tracks sebenco climb reverse and chengou project reverse.

So i dont think im a that of a good pilot compared to all of you on here, but im sure with practice i could become better By the way i am only 14 years of age.

Hey, all! New HD/Fury pilot here. I'm really fresh to the online races.

HD/Fury was my introduction to the series, thanks to the psn blackout in spring 2011. The trophies on this game looked challenging, so I dove in. I'm still hunting, lol.. only missing "Bling Brigade" to go platinum!

I'm glad to see such a lively community around here! I've mainly been racing in the Flash and Rapier classes, Eliminator and Single Race types. So if any of those are your bag, send me an add! PSN ID: boblovesmaryann

Welcome to the site Bobby and Conzio

[vaakneri]

Why didn't I notice this thread earlier?

Anyways, I'm a very new pilot, got HD about 3 months ago and got hooked right away . I recognize a few names here from online races as well. I think I'm really good at the game, considering I have only been playing Wipeout for a very short time. And by the way, I'm a 14-year old Finn, not sure what you'll except from me
