Syncopia Reverse would be a lot of fun, I guess. xD

I have this problem too... I took one photo to get the trophy, yet somehow the game thinks I've taken 217 photos!Quote:
It's probably bugged... like the 'Photos Taken' for some people is in the tens of thousands.
What is the "favorite team" section of the statistics menu based on?
In my game's stats Qirex is my favorite team. But Im like 55 hours with Auricom and only 11 with Qirex.
There are a few stats that seem to be just randomly filled with anything,they have no basis of truth to them.
Photos taken,time in air & favorite craft are 3 of these.
according to WO-HD my favourite ship is apparently also qirex.
so based with this knowledge:
1: most probably, it picks a random ship for you
2: it might be whatever ship you have most loyalty points pr. minute with. i leveled up the qirex quite fast getting zone zeus and eliminator. i think it was the ship i hit 100k fastest with. so seems probable.
3: others have theories about a relation between arcade perfect or elite campaign legend,this i can say without doubt is incorrect. because then i would have either harimau or goteki-45 as favourite.
4: also first to unlock all skin, and diciple doesent match.
so its either 1 or 2 a far as i could tell. unless someone have more info on the subject
I noticed that too and posted a similar question here a while back. It seems most people have Qirex as their favourite ship for some reason. My main ship is actually Goteki 45 with far more time/laps/records.
But... I then played lots of eliminator to get all my ship loyalties to 100000 (I'm a bit of a completionist) and my favourite ship changed from the bugged Qirex to... Feisar. Compared to the Qirex stats, Feisar has less points per minute and less laps. So I really have no idea how it changed to it. My highest points per minute is with AG-Systems, my first 100000 ship was Piranha, my main ship is actually Goteki 45 with more time and thousands more laps.
I thought it was just bugged but it does seem to change... even if it's still wrong. :P
Maybe related to ship used for campaign? But then how to explain change to Feisar...
I would not care if mine stayed Qirex :P
Hmm...seems to be correct on mine. The ship I have the most time with is Feisar, hence it is also listed as my favorite ship. Makes sense to me.
Question for the wipeout proffessors......
In single play race and multiplayers race...when computer says during race new lap record which is all the time , does this mean it goes in speed lap record.or is this not recorded anywhere.
:?
I was wondering the same thing a while ago. I haven't tested it, but I assume it just means a new fastest lap in Single race mode. I've never actually had it in multiplayer.
I just cant see the point of it if there is no way to see what this new single race/multiplayer race new lap time record is..
I dont think it would go into speed lap chart as you could like have 3 turbos in a lap so it would make you better than a speed lap racer who is only allowed to use one turbo...
In multiplayer tables I think best lap is recorded. But it does still seem a little pointless. It could count as a speed lap if you only had one turbo in that lap. The game would only have to differentiate between that and 2 or more turbos when it decided to record the time or not, but I don't think it actually does.
Well thanks for answering my question Saturn..:nod
The multiplayer race 'best lap' seems to really be your best. I don't think it's related to the total race time listed next to it either.
I've just updated a few multiplayer races of mine on the stats website and noticed that all 6 of my new records had the exact same best lap as the old records. Coincidence? :|
It seems to record the best lap you did when you set your record and then keeps that as your best until you set a new record + new best lap. I guess in my case the race result was faster without me beating my lap record. But yea, it still is a little pointless if that's how it works.
Sorry if this has been posted already, but a qucik search didn´t help. However, I have 2 questions.
1. While playing zone sometimes you get a bit of energy back. When and how much?
2. Haven´t played online that much. I am now rank 26. It appears to me that you get to the next rank quite fast, though it seems I need clearly more points to get to 27. So, by the time will the distances between two ranks grow more and more? Maybe every five ranks the (imaginary) points you need become more..?
Thanks in advance
1. You get 10 hp back everytime you complete a 'Perfect Zone'. A perfect zone is 10 seconds of not hitting the walls/damaging your ship. It won't work if you just go 10 seconds though, it has to be from the start of a zone level to the end of a zone level (zone levels increase every 10 seconds). You can however still barrel roll during this time and lose 15 hp for it without voiding your perfect zone.
2. Yea, the distances increase. It's like an RPG. :P The distance between 99 and 100 is probably the same as the the distance between 1 and 30 (Just a random guess, I have no idea how much it takes).
Thanks a lot for the quick respone! :pc
A few things to keep in mind that effect level progress.
You level increases faster with speed classes.
You gain a high % level growth if you win a race against players that are higher ranked than you.
Eliminator games seem to give you a higher % increase if you win,possibly because these races seem to take longer.
You lose level % if you quit a game ,It seems around equal to 4-5 races won,not only that but it seems that you level increase seems to stall for a while before increasing again.
What if you quit an Eliminator?
Same as quitting a standard race,you lose % and your progress stalls for around 4-5 races.
Yes, but you said that Eliminator races have a higher percentage, so is that 4-5 normal races or 4-5 eliminator races?
Normal races
only got this game last week but i'm absolutely loving it (good ol' wipeout!). My only gripe would be that barrel rolling cant be assigned to a button; I'm using the stick for steering with the analogue throttles for air brakes. I really like it in this configuration, but it can be quite tricky to pull off barrell rolls sometimes -flatland flyer trophy was a real pain. But anyway i will hopefully get used to it.
dont worry, i do actually have a question or 2...
-Does anyone have a list detailing how much energy is restored by each weapon?
-When using the stick for steering, do you lose some of your maximum turning circle if you pitch the nose at the same time? ie- holding the stick in the 10 o'clock position means it isnt held as far to the left as it would be in the 9 o'clock position
-Oh and 1 more thing.. are some of those online times cheated? 13 seconds for a single race on vineta K without hitting any speed pads for example? Seems pretty clear that cant be legit.. so are cheated times ever pruned from the leaderboards?
I'm sure somebody has the exact % of shield replenishment somewhere ,but roughly in order of most recharge value if absorbed would be: Plasma bolt,Missile,Rocket & Shield,Cannon,Turbo,Autopilot,Bomb & mines .
Not exact but pretty close.
Steering is slower than side shifting,put it that way.
Unlike previous wipeouts there is no advantage to pitching down on a flat section of track,a lot of the guys use motion control for pitch only so it has little to no effect on steering.
There are a few records that are glitched times in the single race records [also in Zone records] that have either never been corrected or have recently appeared due to some new glitch in the system.
These times are not possible in a real sense and should be disregarded.
I don't understand what's the point of getting loyalty with a ship.
As I understand, it unlocks different "skins" for the ships...but is that it? Do the ships actually change in the way they drive or handle? Or they just look different?
They just look different. Only HD ships against Fury ships have different statistics and will feel different.
I'm sensing an extreme lack of use of the search function here. In future, before you ask somewhat elementary questions, do read Hellfire's FAQ. He's taken the time to put this together, so to not read it when you are new and have much to learn would be a crying shame. It's even a sticky topic.

EDIT:Merged this and previous post with this thread as the question didn't warrant a whole new thread.
I searched "upgrade" "loyalty" multiple times over the past few weeks SaturnReturn, and wasn't able to find a definite answer. Forgive me. I read the FAQ's and it said by obtaining x amount of points you get this or that...but I missed anything exactly saying "these only affect the visual appearance".
Well it's just that it's something that is answered well in the FAQ. If you go there and search for every instance of "loyalty" in the FAQ then it should answer it. If not then the search results I found for loyalty indicate that it's skins only. Even if the forum didn't return the answer, then google does pretty quickly.
Anyway, for little questions like that which don't really warrant a new discussion, this random question thread is better when a search fails.
Haven´t found it in the FAQs, so:
during online play I Find the letter "F" in a circle next to the selected team. Meaning is...? Thanx
It means that person is racing with a Fury expansion ship. The teams get a slight 'stat' boost in the expansion and therefore need the extra marking in the menu.
If the fury ships only looked different and were extra 'skins' for the ships then the markings might not have been added in the game.
Does anybody else have the feeling that in Eliminator there are people who cheat?
Yeah, most of the time -> quakes for me == 0 -> quakes for them == unbelievable. On very rare occasions I get 1 quake for me. But in revenge they get unbelievable^2 . ;)
Frankly, I have no idea if there is a way to cheat for quakes. On the other hand I prefer rockets.
Or is there something completely different on your mind?
Yeah more like people passing two weapon pads and getting four weapons in that time. Maybe I'm just totally wrong and their tactics are simply too good, but at least to me it feels like they do things that are simply not possible within the normal game.
Well, I did not recognize this. I'm not that often in Eliminator. What I remember is that when you're in an 8 player match and most/all are stuck in one sector of the track it's total carnage. I'm not able to handle that to a positive outcome. The good players are - imo. When there are less players around I'm most of the time fine w/ my tactics - besides the quakes :redface: But there are some really good players who know the perfect kill spots on the tracks and for me its very hard to compete against them. So with ref. to the question. I don't think so. But I'll keep an eye on it.
I have a question, are there differences between the d/l version and the disc version of the game? I know all updates are there etc, but I mean, loading times? anything else I should be concerned about?
Dark_Vincent, this has been answered before and also referenced somewhere in a more recent thread. A quick search should provide the answer.
Does anybody else find the momentary delay that prevents you from pressing X on an option in the pause menu to be INCREDIBLY ANNOYING?
Sometimes I just want to rage from the game, and I instinctively press start, up, X. AND IT DOESN'T LET ME PRESS THE BUTTON. I have to wait because the devs think it will help prevent people from accidentally quitting a race. THAT NEVER HAPPENS! It only serves to piss me off more :(
/rant
No I've never really noticed that...
Does anybody know if you can get the "comeback king" badge on zone battle mode or does it have to be on a race?
@amplificated: Same over here. I really don't like any kind of lag in a
user-interface. But WOHD doesn't do too bad on a global scale with respect to
other games. The main menu works good enough. Anyway, the in-game pause menu
is annoying esp. when you wanna switch music, make a photo, whatsoever.
You can only get the Come Back King badge racing online .
You get the badge for winning a race even though you have been eliminated during it.
A damm hard badge to get if your racing against people at the same or better skill level as you.
