its been completely non-functional for a while.

Sorry to ask this, but I've been out of the loop-- playing Wipeout Pure instead of Pulse for the past month or so.
The Wipeout-Game.com website is non-functional in terms of having hacked times? Or non-functional in terms of not allowing users to upload their times at all?
what i notice is that the uploads report that they completed but the times are not posted.
there were always hacked times, but now even cheaters can't post.
another thing is that there seem to be two snapshots of data so if you refresh a particular track you will see positions move but its all stale anyhow.
those tables are so outdated.
there have been some sick records coming out lately from slow ships and you have to go compare them to the wipeout-game tables to get perspective since many have abandoned pulse and have not updated their times here.
Wow, that's really sad :(
I wonder how much longer online multiplayer will be officially supported, given the disappointing sales garnered by Pulse. Has anybody tried playing Pulse using Xlink Kai?
Hey Packetmon haven't seen you on Wipeout for a while. Then again I haven't been on for a while had mid year exams. Went clubbing last night. Truly **** faced i was, still am kinda. **** music the club had. No proper dance/trance/house music. Need to go to Melbourne or Europe, they got better clubs. Back to Wipeout, Yes those Wipeout-Game records look odd. Put Pure in a lil while ago. Did Goteki Sol2 Phanrom, damn the gaming engine is different. The Pure theme is better than pulse i think. Typing me ages to type in this msg. Using the PS3 cause my computer has shitted itself again.
this is so NOT cool. So sad to see such a killer app treated like that... Customer choice, yeah great... :?
The answer is yes. Asa did played with Alterego and and other guy. So yes it`s does work.Quote:

stevie:)
Its like seeing a Bugatti Veyron used to do school runs. Yes. Buts it my only access to the net atm@home. Makes me also appreciate my PS3 more. Kinda cool using bluetooth controllers for the net. Shows build quality between Sony and my Toshiba. No wonder Toshiba lost the high deffinition war HD DVD vs. BluRay cause Toshiba build quality is ****.Quote:

WipEout HD certainly isn't suffering from the same lack of interest (Looks at the "Release Date" thread ;))
And on every site I've been, when they're talking about Fatal Inertia, people say they'd rather get WipEout. :)
To stray back on topic: the ranking boards are working again!
:robot Great news! more TT training on the way!!!
Anyway, big thanks!
Yeah - working on a version of the site from January. :|
Infoxicated did u mean u were creating a new version of of this site in january (wipeoutzone). or did u mean the official 1 (wipeout-game). because im thinking january is a wierd time to update Wipeout-game.com seeing as wipeouthd shud supposedly make its appearance soon. Shouldnt the new version of wipeoutgame be released at the same time as HD. Unless HD is being pushed back to next year :frown:. Im just thinking out loud here so please correct me if iv got the wrong end of the stick
I'm saying that the version of the wipeout-game.com site that is live right now is from January - February at the latest. All the work I done on the site in February and March, right up to when I left Sony is still sitting on a QA server, but has never made it to the live production server.
See if you can spot the difference.
It would seem that there isn't a desire to make that site go live any time soon, as I reported a layout issue and provied the fix a few weeks back and that fix has not made it to the QA server. Hence, it would seem that Satan will be driving to work in a snow plough before that site gets updated again. :|
Yeah the layout is fixed in your version. I don't understand why they won't publish it... :/
Satan was recently seen soaking up the sun at his own private island in the South Pacific. He was drinking one Mai-Tai after another whilst being served by dancing girls in hula skirts.
Hm. This is new. So now HD is set a year ahead of Pulse instead of a year behind - explaining all this new stuff.
I like.
I Have trouble with the uploading profile section (session expired. Please log in again), guess it's the same for you all...? -due to the january version of the website?-
Enable cookies in your psp's browser, that might help.
I've had no troubles uploading my profile. I just wish it was the same for ghost ships... There should really be one huge "ghost profile" instead of multiple little tiny things...
F...K sorry it works for me too. No probs now. I was high... GAH my brain
Does the site in post#95 actually work infoxicated?
In terms of content, yes. However, the public cant log in to it - just internal testers.
Fair enough
Are the rankings on wipeout-game still updated? It surprises me that I can still find myself in 8th place on Vertica Black speed lap @ rapier two years after the fact... I would have expected hordes of people to have flown past me. Looks like there are only 59 records registered, which seems rather few.
Yeah, they do still update, but it's generally only Phantom these days, because that's what most of hardcore Pulse players race, and I guess the more casual players don't play or upload anymore. I still like uploading there to compete with some players who aren't WoZ members. Also, there are no cheated Phantom times (with the one exception of Ekys' Moa Therma White Speed Lap). ;)
its a shame theres no way of getting hold of random people online to join the zone, because not too long ago i joined a 1v1 phantom game and won with the guy DNF but when he put it to flash the next game (i didnt notice till the 'go' :d) then we had some epic races!
i cant remember his tag for the life of me tho ><
EDIT: on second thought Im not registered on the wipeout-rankings web site, so these players are probably there.
Well, there goes another Phantom no.1, so congratulations to the cheats that xXMicroVirusXx used on Moa Therma White TT. :|
http://wipeout-game.com/html/ranking...ack=1#rankings
Quite funny the way that xXMicroVirusXx tried to make it look like a legit time by only beating the record by a couple of seconds. He failed though. He also forgot that he had blatantly cheated times on the slower speed classes giving him away.
I don't trust those records worth a damn, there are definitely records with jaytech, and also some with 333. Not to mention other stupid cheats that are very subtle that you can use
Yeah ! He also appears on moa's speedlap table, ranked 4th ! :rolleyes:Quote:

This is a blatantly cheated time I'm talking about here though, not just something that's questionable in terms of fairness. The guy's actually used some kind of turbo, autopilot, etc. cheat, and tried to pass it off as a "legit" (Jaytech and 333 included) record.Quote:

You just press up. :lol
But you're totally right that wipeout-game records can't be trusted at face value, since there's no moderators and no way to stop cheaters from uploading times. :nod
I love 333 but no records with it. It is a HUGE advantage, being that every game runs perfectly, with no choppiness whatsoever, it makes turning much easier. Online is where it gives you a significant advantage, especially with multiple players. If you can pitch forward the entire time manually, it takes jay tech out of the question, although it is still harder to do than a piece of tape. OH, yeah, jay tech doesn't help at all on magstrips.
333 in tt is still an advantage, although smaller since tt doesn't get too choppy on most tracksg
Jaytech and 333 make the game easier for many people, sure. It's going to vary, depending on how easy one finds manual pitch and how much one is put off by framedrops, but yeah.
What I meant though, was that it's quite possible to get any 333+Jaytech time using ofw and manual pitch. Compared to this xXMicroVirusXx guy and others, who are using actual cheats to get impossible times.
Agreed, it just takes longer to get a good time with cfw and manual.
So... does that mean all OFW players are only racing with 222 CPU power?
How much of an improvement is 333 anyway? Because I'm not seeing any choppiness at all when I race.
OFW is 266mhz. It was only 222mhz on some of the early OFWs, then they put the cap to 266 instead (and later allowed games after a certain point to run at 333, but Pulse wasn't one of them).
You don't get any choppiness? Ha, you must be getting my extra frames then, because I get about 20fps when we're racing online. :lol
It's not because of OFW that that happens to me though; it's something to do with the PSN, as I always get slow and unreliable service, for both PS Store downloads and online gaming. My connection is pretty fast, so it's not that. Sony don't like me, I guess. :D
Maybe zico had the record on gemini black before your entry ! :D
Haha! Yes, he probably engineered the whole thing. Now that you mention it, I don't remember it being so bad when I first got my PSP/was a noob at Pulse... :lol
