My ghosts were still ON after the patch, as they were before. Cant see that any settings have reverted back or changed since the patch...
Also I just got the freeze on the lobby screen. Had to turn off the PS3 with the button on the backside. If it helps, here's what I did before the freeze:
I started the game for the first time after DLing the patch - checked that my options were allright - went and looked at the way cool statistics screen (and cried a little upon seeing my win/loss ratio online) - went online - clicked Join Game - started scrolling down the list and it froze just as I reached the last visible listing on the screen (I could see from the scroll bar that there were plenty more races in the list).
What do you mean by "campaign thumbnails"?Quote:

the speedlap problem is def. solved Paul, no more hangups.
Really? By turning Ghosts back on?Quote:

Thanks for letting me know,

yup ghosts on, no more problems. At least in the single player, dont know about racebox.
I have same problem as Okam, game crashes when scrolling through the available races, and reaching the bottom.
online is overrated anyway m8...muhahahahha...stupid joke I know...paperbag of shame ON.... :paperbag
I'm afraid the Vista pads are not completely gone. In a 8 player race I crossed several lit up pads, heard the little bell but no pickup appeared.
I guess the servers were groaning at that moment since everybody was trying out the patch, so I'll withhold final judgement on that :)
At least the permanently off pads are gone!
Girl feedback:guitar:guitar:guitar
Speaking on behalf of girl racers, patch is good, i like it.
Have campaign ships been made more shiny in the game and the select picture more blackish.
They should put special option in just for girls to do barrel rolls by pressing L3 as we have longer nails and LRL is too hard for us.
well done to the programmers.:guitar:dizzy:dizzy:dizzy
BRs are so smooth to put, awesome ;)
My only complain is that when I want to choice music track on the pause menu, the selection is too bright, so I can't see which album I'm on. But I guess that's my pre-war cathodic TV :)
Thursday where are you!!! :)
After the patch, I encountered four problems that others have already described earlier today:
1. My control settings were reverted back to default (I think?)... all other settings were properly remembered, though
2. Game froze after finishing a speed lap session (with 0 laps finished, I just wanted to test out the new track/ship select/loading screens somewhere)... had to reboot my PS3, but luckily my save data didn't become corrupted *whew*
3. Game froze again while quickly(!) sifting through the race list in the lobby (I was looking for a specific host, so I just hovered over all the rooms that said "RACE IN PROGRESS" to find it), so I had to reboot my PS3 and fear for my save data again! :eek Luckily everything was okay, but I instantly made a fresh post-patch backup of it, just to be on the safe side.
4. I noticed _huge_ video lag when someone was eliminated anywhere near me (at one point the ship right in front of me ran into a bomb and blew up, bringing the FPS down to under 10 for a second or so)
Other than these I'm loving the new patch, albeit I didn't get to see much of it due to Wi-Fi access point problems. :( Gonna have to get back to exploring it tomorrow.
EDIT: Forgot to add, I haven't failed a single BR since the update! Biggest thumbs up to whoever fixed that. =)
when i got wipeout HD that crashed like 10 times over the first two days then it never did anymore, it kinda fixed it self.maybe thats whats happening.
I wish you could pick what music track you want while in the multiplayer lobby
Ive been saying that for yonks also Haydn. I have to go offline, then back offline, to pick my music track.
@ Sny
its just crashed 3 times when I've been in the online lobby just going up and down the lists of players.
Hope its down to increased numbers.
A little list of things I noticed about the 2.00 patch:
+ BRs work virtually perfect now
+ the stopping power of mines seems to be reduced ever so slightly, not sure about rockets
+ the changes to the online menu are very handy
+ the lighting seems to be slightly crispier (most noteable on sunny tracks), could be my imagination though ;)
- there seem to be some menu elements affected by a strange shadow overlay, which makes them appear dull, such as: the progress bar in an online lobby (starting race, etc.), the campaign event images in SP campaign, the platinum ship models.
- while the display of how far along a game is (at the online/join game overview) comes in handy, the words RACE IN PROGRESS stay on a little too long, as compared to other valuable info such as the hoster's name. How about adding a little icon for 'RACE IN PROGRESS' so it doesn't have to flicker back and forth?
- the stat on 'photos taken' is broken for almost all players I have talked to, mostly displaying several thousand photos.
- I don't quite see how the 'nudge' system is supposed to work... :paperbag
Frankly, I prefer the old ship/track selection screens, but the new ones are not that bad.
The statistics are impressive, but it lacks colors. I know the wipEout HD theme is grey/blue-green but if you could use yellow for gold medals, at least use every possible colors for the other statistics (stacked bar with only 4 colors and more options ... very ugly).
Also, I didn't took > 1000 photos. 10 at most ! The stats are wrong.
I tried an online race, and BR were getting out pretty easily. Thank you all.
I've noticed some pauses during gameplay too (racebox, phantom)- is that niggle back from the dead also?
Other than that, cool upgrade! The only major downer was the readme file...how naughty is it of SL to tease us like that? ''Fury is out now to buy........'' Who the hell wrote that? Is it Zicos revenge for all the hate mail?
