It's not just a little issue when people spectate at all. A lot has changed. The whole games feels different to me today. As Connavar says, barrel rolls that are easy as pie to execute just don't happen. I'm not the only one who thinks it's worse/different and not the only one annoyed with it. I don't get genuinely annoyed all that easily, but this has really annoyed me. Currently there is little of any value in this update. It's all show and no go.Quote:

edit: i will try out the features extensively through the night, so acctually what the update contained im not talking about here.
My oh my. I really don't know how that split second freeze got through QA! It is really a game killer, especially flying round corners.
Now I'll give the guys their dues, some of the changes are fantastic like no BR's. Never liked em :). But people not able to sign in with their PSN ID is whack. I don't wanna be too critical on the guys cause I'm greatful for the continued support. But 2 months of development should have produced something a little more stable chaps.
But I do have faith that they will rectify the problem soon.
Premonition -what would you like to see next in wipeout HD-Ability to turn Spectator mode off.
Update 2.70 was already making online glitchy,it was inevitable spectator mode was going to make it more so.
I also bet that the amount of glitches you get is directly proportional to how many people you have on your friends list
I'm going to wait a few days before I install this patch.
^ No. Last thing we need is going backwards because it's not working in the first 24 hours.
Great update on paper, but the actual thing itself is rather too buggy. The in-game stutter/freeze is horrible, too much lag and the 'spectator' mode is poor quality (seen it done much better in other games).
However, this is day 1 of the update, so I wouldn’t get too agitated guys. When it comes to matters that jeopardise the viability of online gameplay, I have no doubt that SL will respond as swiftly as they can (eg game hosters who created a game and then wouldn’t start it; fixed by SL so that the game starts automatically).
Just read the updated manual, seems you lose ranking points if you quit during a race or tournament. Thats a good change I think.
Rapier Racer sent me that solution over PSN - Thanks to him!! :DQuote:

I think the option to turn spectator mode off is a necessary one if the issue does not improve in the long term. I don't want to have to only play wipeout at 5am just to get a decent lag/freeze-free game. I'll be keeping my fingers crossed in the hope that it improves over the next few days.
Guys, chill out!
This is a major patch in terms of features. If you were expecting perfect server performance on patch day, I have to assume WO is the only game you have ever played online.
Give them 2-3 days to work out server-related issues, You can be sure they are testing out all the new features server-side as well right now - just as you are testing out the client-side changes.
Be happy that most of you are able to go online at all. I wouldn't have been surprised if the servers would have been more down than up the first 24 hours after such a patch.
Does the new feature of 'invite only' when creating a game not shield you from spectators?
Can you just jump in to any of your friends games when you feel like it?
thanks seraphim, i'll check out the manual.
hmm... the update has some great features. but where do i go to setup my cobwebbed negcon? :(
I doubt it,if it's not specific option in you create game online game setup.
Your at the mercy of how "Famous/notorious" you are I would think,meaning the really fast racers like Piraphaic,Wotan,Asayyeah etc are going to have a lot of spectators watching their races....pity them ATM if this lag thing isn't sorted.
great problem with weapons pad: only one or two weapon pads in the entire race during alteregorr and other hosting. freeze at the start (thanks RR, but I have to use my girlmate nick -francygirl- for racing).
two "10x" race with great pilots :banzai NICE:lol
Just got the update, game doesn't work anymore.
Playstation crashes during the 'Autosave reminder' screen just before the main menu.
My games peachy reliability has gone :frown:
djKyoto can you report back if you find a fix for this or it fixes itself.
I've purposely avoided this patch and don't want to install it untill I get an all clear.
That's if the "Sign out of the PSN and start from game fix" doesn't work for you.
I had the same issue, i just unplugged the ethernet cable from the back of the ps3 and the game loaded up fine.
I gather you plugged it back in again and played online.
Everything working as it should?
Yup, no issues. Well besids the lag and etc.
