I don't think that's ever been achieved for me for a period longer than it takes for the next thought to enter my head.

I like some new content as well,but I agree that eliminating the bugs from the game would be a priority.
I don't know if the elite level AI is considered a bug,[it sure seems so at times],but I'd like that tweaked if at all possible.
As it is at the moment it's seems to have put people off WO HD from posts I've read at other Playstation forums,and I've certainly found that the amount of people on my friends list have given up [all around the same game %] and are now playing other titles,which doesn't bade well for sales of additional content or for that matter,the longevity of the title as a whole when you consider the relatively short space of time since HD's release.
Just a rather unpleasant observation that I'd thought I'd bring to light,anybody else notice this?
/way off topic sorry!
i think you find that with almost every game, there are a very small percentage of addicts who will play for years, but your average gamer has an attention span of less epic proportions. A month and the next shiny thing is waiting to be played.
Now about the ppl moaning on other forums about elite.. this imo actually has nothing to do with the game, its all about this weird urge to get all the trophies. have also read posts where ppl are setting up races just to kill each other to get the 50 online kills. I cant think of anything more pointless, really i cant - why not just play the game? You will get this eventually. But it seems loads of people have less interest in enjoying the gameplay than trying to get all the throphies. go figure
Anyhow, would be nice to see new tracks not just old ones.. even though for me all the tracks in HD are new as i never played pure or pulse
That was my original intention. And you know what? After buying the game on release and playing every day, I have got a grand total of ZERO kills. Yep. Zero.
Killing another player requires a coincidence of circumstances: low energy rival, the right pickup in the right moment, etc etc. It's not only dependant on your skill.
Oh, I have blasted away hundreds of weapons at hundreds of people, but none of them have been a coup de grace. Plus I don't remember having got a single Plasma pickup online, ever.
What did I do? I set up a 1-rival session with a buddy, we both picked Icaras, and went at it. In 25 minutes I went from 0 to 50 kills, and so did him.
AG Assassin might come naturally. But who's to say that the game will be popular enough for me to get it in, say, one year from today?
It's like Bling Brigade. It MIGHT happen by itself, but if you don't get it now, the online lobby could turn into a barren, empty wasteland and your chances of racing other 7 people with the proper skin get slim and rarer by the day. I say no, thanks. Better to set everything up, getting the damn trophy and proceed to enjoy the game.
I'd rather waste 25 minutes, get it together with Double Kill, and then enjoy the online mode naturally. Sounds much better than ruining all your races by devoting yourself to buggering and blasting other racers.

i think you are being a little cynical - in all of your posts you have suggested the game is about to die online, think that is very far from reality.
but you missed my point which was pondering why anyone would be more interested in getting a 'trophy' ie a tiny graphic and one line of text, than playing a game. I understand striving for achievements and obsessive behaviour but the whole concept of trophies has sailed right over my head
If you can give me even one half good reason why i should turn on pilot assist just to get a trophy then please do!
+1
rushin: you get the trophy. That's all. If you don't want to do it that's fine but don't expect everyone to do the same as you. A lot of people play for trophies and download mediocre titles just to get them. I think it sucks too but if they enjoy getting the trophies well let them enjoy it. I guess that's how they play videogames.
I have to agree with Rincewind though, AG Assassin and Bling Brigade will take a long time to obtain and/or are damn near impossible to obtain if you don't set up some sort of meeting. GL finding eight chrome skins playing online ''just like that''.
do you think tomorrow will be a date with any relevance?
( just to remenber tomorrow will be released the LBP WO hd costumes pack )
I want a wipeout 3 track pack... HD Porto Kora FTW!!!
To be honest I don't think this has anything to do with any DLC coming out anytime soon. I've seen the WipEout stickers that are coming with the LBP costumes and they're just the logo's of all the teams currently available in HD. So even if it's coming I doubt we'll see any new teams. But who knows? No one can say. I sure hope there's some coming soon, but I can wait.
sorry bad post
