Mooney is a member of the XDEV development team. And he is absolutely right. While I don't think any members here are currently on the beta testing team, do remember that those who are are indeed under NDA and are therefore heavily restricted as to what they can share. Please don't expect answers to everything yet.
Seems MOONEY is hanging about to see what I post.....the Beauty of PM's and JEPG's and other Wipeout forums....Lets give the Japanese the scoop, maybe the French....post it at the AVS gaming forum...pretty much international.
All could be done Vhery Qwichly

.....Mooney, leave it.

OK , fair enough...as it coming from the Top, I'll won't revel all that I have found out.
One quick question.....Why hasn't Mooney been more Pro Active ?
I'll just send the screen shots to somebody else, let them post them elsewhere.....it's only shots of the online board, and what options are available....nothing happening here anymore.
One quick question.....Why hasn't Mooney been more Pro Active ?
We will be once we release. Just know that even though we are not posting a lot, we are always looking at these forums.
That sounds like a verbatim quote from certain R8 personal that we have all heard before in the Formula fusion section of the Wipeoutzone.
I don't know if we should welcome you or call you out, such has been the BS spread around this forum by the makers of AG games lately.
I'll take the Handshake route and attempt to make friends.....your call. [Don't Lurk is a good start ]
Welcome to WZ Mooney :)
OK that crap nicy nicy **** is over....since no handshake form Mooney via PM
Back to what we were talking about.
Racebox includes 2048, 9 tracks available in all modes except Zone, which has 10
I'll promise I WILL NOT POST SCREEN SHOTS
Well then...
Never thought that would happen.
Welcome Mooney :clap
hello!
Hi, how are you?
Got anything to add about the new Omega Pack since you made it, any teasers that we don't know about.....come on....were all friends here, don't be coy.
Yo! Been a while since I was last on the forum. But Omega kind of forced my hand here. Cool game! Seriously can't wait! :D
I'm trying my best to ignore any of those spoilers in the posts, though. But the info coming through official channels looks pretty impressive. I've been waiting forever for Van-Über to have a decent chance at the competition again. :rock
So both Van-Uber and Tigron are going to be in the game now, except Van-Uber is a digital preorder exclusive, am I correct?
It has been confirmed that Van-Uber is included in digital version only and Tigron is included in all versions.
according to this https://www.playstation.com/en-us/ga...ollection-ps4/ and https://www.amazon.com/Wipeout-Omega...=wipeout+omega
physical versions get van uber in the US
however in UK
https://www.playstation.com/en-gb/ga...ollection-ps4/
it just says you will get van uber on the digital version
Welcome to WZ, Mooney!
If you can't tell, we're rather passionate about WipEout over here! :D
Too passionate for his liking it would seem.
With comments as these people still wonder why devs tend to not actively participate on forums..
An NDA is a legal agreement Blackwiggle, you may not care much, but by continuously bugging your friend for more information, you are not being a friend to him as he can get sued for sharing information, yes, you are right in thinking that it is his choice on whether or not to share info, but in asking him all those questions, you are not helping him keep his NDA, ND.
To put it in perspective, if you are okay with breaking contracts and agreements, how nice would it be if the company you work for suddenly chose to stop paying your salary, because hey, who cares about agreements anyway right?
We should be happy with CB & XDEV already willing to share with us that new teams are coming, which kind of visual enhancements they made, yada yada yada, if you remain patient, I'm sure they will spill more beans (pun intended!) to keep the hype train fuelled.
Unrelated to all of that:
Cool to see there will be some new content as well. And that press kit looks damn awesome, that's one to go on the want list for the collection haha! :D (Thx C. Jones!!)
The matter has been resolved
Yes you are correct, my bad, but by the same token, why give BETA testing duties to people that don't really know the game?
You do see the potential problem with the game that has been discovered out of all this don't you?
I'll reiterate for those that missed it.
You have three games with two different handling craft, the FURY/HD craft can't race on the 2048 tracks, and visa versa, the problem lies in that they have [reportedly] made the air brake sensitivity adjustment GLOBAL, as in one adjusted setting works across both games [different craft], now what might be a ideal air brake setting for the HD/FURY craft, could be a shocker for the 2048, not so bad if playing Campaign, as you can go back into air brake settings adjust to suit.....but what happens when you are playing online and tracks change between the two different handling craft?
You either have to opt for a great handling HD/FURY craft and a not so great 2048 craft, or the other way around......not a ideal situation is it? especially in the faster speed classes.....I doubt you will able to adjust your air brake settings while sitting on a online grid waiting for the race to start, even if you could, it would be a total pain for all concerned waitinf for people to do that.
The only solution I can think of would be if you had player selectable airbrake presets for each of the two different handling craft, and they automatically load with the corresponding craft selection when playing online.
I don't know, maybe my mate has got this air brake setting thing wrong, but if he hasn't and there is just one Global air brake setting, it does seem a bit of a oversight.
We in Aus use the UK PlayStation store, which is a PAL region, but the pre order steelbox game disc is region free anyway, I've ordered it as well.
The only problem arises is with any special DLC that comes with the game, people in the USA who import the steel box would have to use the Europe Playstation store, we in Aus don't have that problem.
Ah, fair point, will do
Saw all this talk about Omega having a beta test, came on here to see if you guys had heard about it.
Did. Not. Disappoint. ;)
In all seriousness though, I'm a little surprised that the devs didn't reach out to more of you guys here, given the passion for the game and knowledge; they'd have been able to get some hella feedback but, eh, c'est la vie, right?
Also someone mentioned that Tigron is going to be available in all versions? Is there a sauce? (also does anyone have an inkling of what the stats for Van Uber might be? I've seen Tigron's, I wonder how competitive it'll be.)
A couple questions related to 4K.
Does it really make such a big difference to the naked eye on a game like WOHD?
Will I be missing out big time if I play it on a 1080p screen?
Are you guys all getting a 4K screen for the occasion?
This is to determine if I should wait for the day I buy a 4K screen to play WOOC :) I don’t want to "spoil" it.

31 days to go. Pre-ordered digital.
There is 4K HD and 4K UHD
4K HD resolution doesn't mean much on a TV, but on a projector it's noticeable, but even then, you have to sit as close to the screen ans the screen is wide to readily notice it.
But 4K UHD is a different matter, these screens are designed to run a lot brighter than standard 108p HD screens, that is to reproduce the expanded colour gamut of UHD and is noticeable on a TV, no matter what size it is, this is especially true with scenes like Sky or the Sea etc, where the UHD screen can reproduce very small differences in colour that you see in nature, this also makes the screens appear to have more contrast, and also make whatever you are watching on it seem more 3D like.
Standard 1080p HD and 4K HD will look flat in comparison.....truth is, on computer generate content the differences between standard 1080p HD and 4K HD would be hard to spot unless you had two different screen side by side, and the PS4 does 1080p upscaling, not true 4K, that's one of the reasons it doesn't have a 4K disc drive, it's much the same as when the PS3 was first released, it played standard DVD's, but then got a system update that brought DVD upscaling from standard 576 to 1080p
If you were going to buy a new TV, IMHO you would be mad if it wasn't a 4K UHD model, they aren't really that much more expensive that 1080p HD TV's, but I'd also stay away from OLED screens, they might look fine in the shops, but a lot are being returned with varying degrees of picture problems, like banding etc.....it's new technology that isn't really as robust as LED/LCD, neither can a OLED ever be as bright as a LCD/LED....I calibrate TV's, OLED also use some trickery to make the Blacks on them to seem deeper that LED/LCD, but that's a whole other topic.
Cheers, BW.
I’ll keep my good old 1080p Samsung LED monitor for now then.
Any issues reported at this point won't make it to the release version (as mentioned before, game's gone gold already), but can be fixed using patches, so whether you report it now or in a month makes not much difference apart from the devs being able to look into it already (but that's what the beta testers are for), a global vs local sensitivity setting is a really easy fix (less than 30 mins), so no need to worry about it ;) (in fact, your friend might be wrong in thinking the sensitivity setting is global, as 2048 originally doesn't even have sensitivity settings)
There's no need to worry about bugs & enhancements, there is most likely going to be at least 1 patch to address a lot of issues the beta testers missed (Which is inevitable, look at the airbrake glitch, started with Pure and was still present up and till Patch 2.4 of Wipeout HD)
Is it June 7th yet?
Hi, someone has heard of a pulse version on PS4 ?? ... I just saw a photo of someone with a "presskit" of it, i guess it' s for PS4

Here's some stuff you wouldn't have known.
In the Omega Pack game options you have some new ones.
Online ID...so I gather those little identity tags over online craft can be turned on or off, they were on HD when it first came out, but stopped working after the first week, there was never a option to turn them on or off before though.
You can now select to turn pilot assist on or off for Player one and Player Two, so great if playing two player single screen and one player needs it and the other doesn't
HUD style is global, although I don't know what HUD's are available, but at least you should be able to change the 2048 one if you want.
In Racebox when selecting 2048- in the Game Type the unusual option of Tournament is available !
I don't know how they have worked the 2048 Racebox, it must be different in some way.
Here's a game for you to play....guess what might be the available options in the blank spaces of the ONLINE selection page?
Game Mode-
Race Type-
Speed Class-
Weapons- On/Off
HUD Weapon Hints- On/Off
Opponents-
Barrel Rolls-
Pilot Assist-
Laps-
Blank.....
Blank.....
Glad to see weapon off mode is back :)
I still would love to see ghost ships :D
curious what the blank spaces are
my guesses are
Ghost ships (anyone can drive through you, so no crashing into others etc) FYI if you didnt know, HD had ghost ships, but was only activated after respawning for a few seconds, when having a huge PING, or driving in wrong side of the track but having a permenant option would be amazing.
maybe something 2048 related on the second blank option... Prototype ships disabled maybe? Feisar prototype on lower speed classes that isnt Altima, SOL, or queens mall is way to OP on lower classes.
Ghost Ships are available.
HUD's are unlock along the way during Campaign, just like HD was....was so long ago I forgot about that, so ATM unable to find out exactly what HUD's will be available.
nice to see HUD's back too. 2097 HUD on zone is amazing :D
Yeah It's kinda confused me too.. If they knew about these forums already (hence Mooney), it should've been a no-brainer to give at least a few invites to active forum members here IMO. But then again, it would be hard for us NOT to share what we would know (and break the contract/agreement yadayada) :P
Sony are the ones who decide who gets an invite to the beta, not the guys at Clever beans and Epos. But if people here show a disregard for NDA's, it further reinforces the idea that they they need to be very selective about who gets access to things like a beta going forward.
