If your fast enough in Pulse you can outrun a quake, with only a gap of about 2-3seconds since the quake really only travels at rapier speed in a race at phantom speed. Also if your ahead and you have a quake you turn your ship around a drop a reverse quake at the opposition faces (leungbok), lol. No way to escape that. Reverse quakes in HD would just be insane, then you'll most likely get last place dickheads using them for the wrong reasons.
Quake speed has been increased in HD.
I don't know anything about the distance.
Clearly a better pilot than I :banzai Ill be quiet now.Quote:

Hehe, I thought you might say that. But I'm not better than you at all. I've just spent more time on that one tiny bit of the game than you. Anyway, it bodes well for me if you can't do it. I think it's the best chance I would have at winning a race against you in a doubles match, where the carnage of a full 8 player game on v1.4 is largely not present and solid consistent racing is king.
they should make a Wipeoutzone flag exclusively for us XD .... jk jk, lets fix the stuff we got already!
Well I just had a session where Goteki felt like FEISAR handling wise and was being beaten off the line very easily. I'm pretty sure the game is messing up ship skins somehow, e.g. applying Goteki's skin to FEISAR when I select Goteki. It could be the same thing that's causing SL/TT ghost issues, e.g. Icaras ghost to appear as Goteki.
the bomb the quake itself could destroy if it reached it... too bad.Quote:

have you ever dodge a missile too?
using lateral move at the last moment seems to be effective, especially in a turn,
the missile just miss you and go forward... and it's funny when someone else take it...
i'm sure there are plenty of other stuff like this.
The races I shared with you yesterday was wierd as **** The handling felt exactly like whenever a new release is out and everybody and their mother is trying it out. Vista pads in abundance as well.Quote:

I can't fight being pushed, and why I try to push them ... nothing happen u_u
I'm wondering if this is because, in 1 player mode, the AI is set on a course and won't change, and on multplayer mode, other ships are considered as AI piloted ships although the directives come from the network (plus the fact that with some lags the other player may have taken a course where I wasn't displayed yet on his TV).
I thought that having better internet connection would get rid of some bugs.
A few days ago, my ISP secretly upgraded our connection from 1.3MBps to 6MBps.
Well, the bugs are still there. And the collisions are worse then ever. You just got to love how Goteki (Two bricks + 1 egg in between) gets pushed around like if it were papier maché by Assegai (Two sheets of metal + a cabin).
Thank you SL for your glorious netcode :)

The ramming thing is old school. It was always annoying but not so much as now with the multitude of issues that occur on top of it in every single game session. Tonight quakes seem to be more abundant again, but the warning that they are coming is completely non-existent. But why does the abundance of quakes not clear the abundance of bombs on the track that you become confronted with any time you get out in the lead. It's especially annoying when you just battled your arse off trying to stay on the track with 5 ships trying to show you just how much they love you, in that way. Stupid stupid game (that I love so much etc).
Agree.
Tonight I was angry because the track was covered by mines and bombs. But what i was angry for wasn't their number (well a little) or their life time, but the non-existant warning -__-'
The game has put an end to my pain by crashing the console (controller and P button doesn't do anything) after I win an easy race (opponents lvl 1 & 2 u_u) passing the line and looking behind me.
tonight was not a time when I could have say "That's why I love this game"
TarotCardKiller also had the game crash when he was looking back at the end of the race. I thought that was an old bug that used to occur but was fixed.
I had an AG handle like Triakis for an entire tournament last night as well as BR's that refused to work.
It's like the handling stats for one craft is being assigned to another.
I've had it that AG was handling like Fiesar ,very twitchy.
I'm sure this is what's happening
FW 2.76 is out.
No idea if it will do anything to WPHD.
I had the same problem with BR until I saw that the host have disabled them ^__^'
so that is what is going on. I had an feisar blowing my ag off the line. It actually seems like this happens one way or the other every time I play online. When I pick an AG, I want to play an AG, not a triakis, or a feisar, or anything else. That must be part of the reason it is hard to hit lines after practicing off line first, then going on, and you are really using a different ship
Good i thought it was me for a bit. I found myself swearing at the TV because the bastard ship wasnt BRing, or the **** did it just when i touched the ground, and lost 15% energy for no ****ing reason. Not happy.
Exactly. I used Icaras offline, but found that in online races, top speed doesn't count that much (unless your 1st way in front of every one). So I switch to AG-SYS which is more balanced (especially the shield n_n) and count on objects/weapons instead.Quote:

I bought Playstation 3 for 2 games :WIPEOUT HD and MGS4 ,Metal 4 is great but HD is much better ,much,much better in terms of people who likes freaking speed experience and online first time in wipeout history we have online on big screen in HD why do we have to have that online play weaker then any other online games?
its 1.40 right ,why ,why its not fixed yet
At the moment Wipeout HD is for me only reason to fired up my ps3 and im jumping straight
to online and what i get unfair race.
Really big respect from me to SL this is really great game I really hope they will be working on this issue,I dont want to race with weapons off races in order not to have problems.
