Managed to play with Mad-Ice, alot of close races huh?;), also played with Osma-Bin-Haydn, Hn53(jap player), KBG1971 and other players I can`t remember.(sorry)
stevie:)
You forgot me you bastard, lol.
That was some crazy stuff in that full house Mad-Ice was hosting, these races are getting tighter and tighter each time, with more draws occuring, like with me and Greenix on Moa Therma. So many nationalitys online then, from winging POMs, to leaping frogs, to multitaskers smoking a weed joint at the same as racing, to the lone skip on the track (always representing myself in the early hours in AUS, lol). But these races where just brilliant! Even if i had to combat the shtty lag i always get on my side. Looking forward for more of these fun get-togethers:)
Whooooaaayeah, that was so intense, hard to survive and very close races all together! Thanks to: Kingheim, Kigo, Greenix, Wotan, Stin, Leungbok, DjManiac and to you all who I forgot, sorry.
Greetz and I hope to be there sooner then later.
rang in the new year with a nice video chat with arnaud and then after a some beer and brief intermission we were battling on the track with greenix and others for wipeout supremacy until 3 am here! thanks for the great races everybody in 2008 ...MORE EXTREME RACES IN 2009!!!!!!!
I had lag aswell so you weren't the only one, but on this occasion I think it helped make the races more chaotic. Weapons from other players appeared randomly and with poor timing and this made it all unpredictable. I remember going over the pad, receiving nothing, flying into a bomb that appeared from nowhere and then right after I finally recieved the weapon (typically a shield)... pure mayhem :dizzy
(im just glad that everyone was in ghost form or I would have died even more from shunting.)
Also had some great races with Asa, froste and KGB yesterday/this morning so big thumbs up to you guys...
Did you ever get your ship repaired after the fatal plasma froste ? :D
that was the most epic plasma i ever been eliminated by....
scenario: sebenco reversed, going down into the ice tunnel i hit greenix with a nicely locked missile right before the triple speed pad. as i BR down the hill into the speed pads, i see him sitting on side of track with plasma charging, i hit my BR and as i nail the three speed pads i fly by greenix but right into his pefectly timed plasma and BOOM debris and blood and screaming everywhere....lets just say i didnt beat him that time :(. but was so awsome
Thanks to Welly, Convanar and a few others for some tight races :+
Even got to match Wotan's Number 1 on Chenghou Project. Think thats the first multiplayer world record to be shared :P
Kingheim mate... youve given me a right hiding the ls few days. I wish i could really get to grips with Eg-X, in capable hands its so fast. :paperbag
I was certain Pirahna was the way forward for me.... though your close to single handedly destroying that idea :eek:cold
Funny one last night, as i entered a room with 6 or 7 French pilots. I could of swore the room went quiet for a moment (needle scratches across record).
Anyway we had some great races with a nice little tournament at the end.
Cheers everyone :lol
Haha!, I did exactly that last night. I entered in that room and my thoughts are "Oops, did I entered in the wrong place and a wrong time, thinking french guys would swore in french dialogue!", so I hastily left without being feared:cold.
Please don`t hit me!:paperbag
Anyway, this morning, I decided to play online and hell, full house right away, well nearly.
Played with WFRO(sorry just the right time;)), then Wotan! where did you come from?, I did not seen you!!!:blarg, are you on stealth!
stevie:D
the french room games were mad! You need a sign saying 'Danger, Enter at own Risk' with those guys piloting!
I was able to borrow the PS3 from work for my last days of holidays and it's a blast! :g
Thanks to stevie, Greenix, Alejess, KGB1971, Feisar31, Tomeru, Luxoflux and a few others I forgot, sorry.
And a special to Mad-Ice, it's the first time I've played HD online with someone I met in real life and it was great fun! Thanks mate, I tried to be the fastest I could!
I'm Fro on the PSN, I don't post much here but I read a lot. So if you see a friend request from me, I'm not a complete stranger and I'll try to be as competitive as I can! :)
Tomorrow I need to bring back the PS3, I'll only be able to play at lunch breaks, poor me... ;)
Hope to race you all online soon!
After failing so hard yesterday (I picked up EVERY SINGLE mine/bomb) and my insane amount of suck today (I hit a wall, got boosted way up to the ceiling, got stuck there until I blew up) I guess I need a short break...
Seriously, I call sabotage! It's 2009 and suddenly my airbreakes don't work properly, I grind to a full stop every time I get hit by something and a slight touch to the wall makes me pull an Icaras.
Had some great times this weekend, well, didn't actually see most of you guys because you were always about 10 seconds ahead, but I guess that's actually a good thing.. When I got close to KGB1971 he eliminated me by simply ramming me after I got hit by that filthy wave of doom... and then instantly again died to his mines. Again.
They should let me use that Zone craft in races, I got used to that one..
Yes Guillaume it was very cool and we will miss during all the other weekends. Be sure to buy a PS3 of your one! And btw your PSN is wzFRO.
See you soon, maybe in Paris the 14th, 15th of this month?
Don't tell me that was your first time on HD Guillaume!
I was wondering where you had sprung from,
Edit: just seen your post zeeZ. Sorry about that :lol I'm generally quite unaggressive.
i just witnessed wellington beating my long standing vk reverse time by a massive 8 tenths.....
2 races, about 20 bombs / mines, and 4 explosions later... i did what ive never done and i threw a hissy fit and turned off the ps3 :)
and i thought it was going to be my day after some good sl improvents!... damn.... still cant work out what ship i should be flying..
FM! New Wipeout HD Avatar i saw, nice:)
Spent a very long time on Wipeout HD online then, it commenced with my old Pulse mate Micky doing a few races then it went for hours after that as i was hosting. Then the server pulled a Vista on my arse, an i got a disconnected error Message, arhhh! Great racing with my sister ship out there, also versing the 3 englishman Anab35, Greeny and Wellington, would ive proved/discovered who was immortal by eliminating his blue arse on Metropia earlier, lol.
Don't think Ive raced you guillaume/wzFRO before last night, have they been hothousing you somewhere in deepest France?
I like your avatar as well, might have to get one of those.
Edit: I now have one of those :rock
Met with another nuisance today, like the one eLhabib mentioned. In acrooklyn's room (which had previously been Connavar's) it eventually got down to just him, Feisar31 and me. Mid-way through a tournament a player called campb292 decided he'd had enough of losing and began to sit on the track in every remaining race waiting to shoot or otherwise sabotage us. On AP reverse he even sat his ship next to his own bomb at the very narrow part of the track and since his ship was somehow not a ghost he ensured there was no way past. acrooklyn somehow never noticed him (lol) but Feisar was killed outright by him and I was indirectly killed because of him at least twice. We need some kind of report system!
Anyway, I did a lot of racing today with a lot of people. Thanks to all.
Yeah Wellington, although I didn't see the bomb thing on Anulpha I did notice that guy being a headache. Can't understand some people!
But I was getting frustrated enough at my own inconsistency tonight. In the last tournament with djKyoto, amazingly I had gotten out in front on the first Anulpha forward race when I botched the BR off the bridge in spectacular fashion, ramming into the wall and bouncing back to a complete stop. I wish I could have waved at you guys as you zoomed past. :dizzy
Anyway, cheers to everyone I raced with this weekend, including the very fast wzFro! :beer
Yes, in a dark castle with Master Asayyeah :g
Seriously though, I play online at work, which means 1pm to 2pm monday to friday, french time (GMT+1 I believe). That's not the usual gaming hours for european players, that must be why we never raced before.
EDIT: because I'm an addict, I sometimes play after work too, between 6pm and 7pm. :)
Heh...? I'm curious what type of job you have that affords you the opportunity to play a PS3 while on the job. :)
Video game company ;)
And I play during lunch breaks.
Ooh, there's one in about 10 minutes!
And yes, I sometimes post during work hours.
But with internet at work, who wouldn't, mmh? :)
EDIT: lunch break over, head and stomach all dizzy, thank you blackwiggle, jjpap, stin_wz, must get back to work. :)
the joys of still having 22 weeks a year of holiday...
i play at work, but i try to be strict and limit it to an hour a day at most, dont get me started on how much time i spend aimlessly wandering the net reading stuff though..
somewhat luckily i get to work from home whenever i want, which turns out to be 90% of the time ;-)
Yikes... played a bunch of games today which closer resembled some of my first races ever; yet I still managed to anger someone enough to send me hate mail (Narx88 ). If only you could filter by the games your friends are in rather than just the ones they create...
Also got a couple of games against a pretty fast American I've not seen around here (magneux or something). Hopefully he accepts the invite. :)
-3 days:cold

Well thanks to every one in that action packed tourny today every race was amazingly tense, thanks to leungbok, froste, luxoflux and others i cant remember. Havnt had races like that in a long time so thanks all :)
Had a pretty horrible lag tonight, game disconnecting me several times :frown:
Still great games hosted by Wellington86 with kingheim, Greenix, Danterich,
imre92, z1r0rEi, Yoshikamitsu...
Sorry again for disconnecting after the first race in the tournament.
We'll play again I'm sure!
I just want to say that I really enjoyed the session last night with emwu23, JJPAP, Toastor, KIGO1987 , a french auricom player (whose name I cant remember) and others that dropped by.
Its good to see which tracks one needs to practice more on.
Thx for good races with Yomismi, Andybob, Evolite, Tordmulen and others last night. See you on the tracks.
Oh, I almost forgot Wellington86 (maybe because I didn“t see much of him!): You really did some fabolous times on several tracks. Thumbs up.
Good races again today, with KGB1971, Wotan998, Aka-sho, hn9354 (a fast japanese player), and surely others. Thanks all!
Yeah thanks for the races Connavar and JJPAP, I hosted for quite a long time yesterday and it was an enjoyable session, although the early races featured Evolite giving up on almost every track and eventually starting to interfere with the race once we lapped him. Thanks to everyone else, particularly kingheim with whom I had lots of close races (as usual!).
And yes JJPAP I beat a couple of my own records yesterday (one of them by a very large margin) and I had the satisfaction of bringing djKyoto's long-standing time at the top of the SC reverse multiplayer leaderboard to an end, for now anyway :P.
Youve taken SC Reverse too? For god sake, id had my eyes on that for ages! ;)
Im sure a certain djkyoto is pissed :lol:lol
Just played in Greenix's room and the lag was awful, i must of flown over countless weapon pick-ups without getting a single one or if one did appear it was after a 10 sec delay. I don't often play that early, so i don't know if it's a time of day thing or not, but if that's what it is like all the time then i would have to stop playing as it was infuriating. I lost by a country mile which made it even worse :frown:.
To cap it all off i actually had a shield before i even set off on sol2 rev but i won that (;) KIGO) so that's ok.
PSN has been having issues today. I was playing an 8-player race on Chengou reverse and... well... a transcript would probably work best.
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
"Weird. Wonder why everyone is leaving..."
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
"Odd."
* player leaves *
* player leaves *
* You have been signed out of the Playstation Network *
"Ohhhh..."
If people are experiencing this all the time then i feel bad for them. It ruined, what was a really good room full of great pilots for me, I don't mind losing at all, there will be plenty of people on this forum that will testify to that.
But it changes the results of the races for everybody and gets everyone more than a little angry. On the few occasions that i did get into the lead, trying to fend Greenix, KIGO, Evolite, Luxoflux and Acrooklyn off takes more than a little skill, the odd weapon would of been nice to (I know everyone was having problems mind).
Anyway I'm being a bad loser, ill go back to playing at 2AM.
Cheers for the races everyone anyway :lol
