Coolest PURE moments!!!

Technically speaking, the friction of the wind on the Medeival ship should be enough to make it explode. ;)

I've combined little moments on courses to create almost cinematic moves.\

Example: Exostra Run. I've rolled onto the sidewall, surfed on the rail, hopped back onto the course and passed a couple racers in the process.

Timing a Turbo makes so many little racing moments look cool.

Did you eliminate him or didn't you? :?

Hi All.

Yesterday in the evening me, raiden and others are on Kai for some races.....we choose the Asa's eliminator mode with only Zone ship in Rapier class.......what a quantity of cool moments!

I want remember one in Vohl Square so funny! ;)

I hide my ship in the last tunnel on the first WP to shot Raiden when he pass, but he stop behind me and start to shoot me on the second WP.....ah ah
for a minute we run in circle shoot each other like a mortal 'gimkana'.....ah ah ah in the end he catch a pulse ray and shoot me in the front.....I.....Booom! lol! ;) :D

another cool moment on Sebenco Climb Raiden first in the last turn and last bend of the race I desperate shoot a pulse and catch him, pass him with some mines in his face......and win!

WipeOut it's so adrenalinic!

Let's be Friends!

Read you soon
CdRom

Yes zargz I eliminated him. I typed "not I" because that is generally what I do to myself when I race...:p

I remember that on Mandrashee, on Phantom speed, right on the "corkscrew" you'll get a small jump, and when you try to turn, your ship will point towards the sky. The longest time I was in the air was about 7 seconds.

Coolest PURE moments? Don't misunderstand this as boasting, but I'm so happy right now about my first Top 5 Time Trial on WOZ, that I wanted it to share with you fellas. Whoever is interested: It's on Anulpha Pass, Phantom. My name on the tables is Flo Kon (first three letters of my real first and surname). :hyper:hyper:hyper

Again, I'm sorry, but happy nonetheless.

Congratulation Flo (rian?) this is truly great score :+
ermm just a little thing, if you don't mind could you add to your records page your real name , you know the missing letters you were talking ;)
thx for that

add (...) the missing letters you were talking

Done!

Thank you mate :+

pulling off barrel roll boost on the smallest of jumps &.......
backward quaking :D

I had lot of fun yesterday to do that : pictures

Haha, amazing. I'm never playing Pure weps on with you! :D

Pretty recent one: When I was uploading WO pure's records I discovered that my time trial record in Anulpha Pass got me the 8th place in the WZ ranking (Phantom) with 1:55.62. And I thought that that was a lousy time trial record... :g

When I beat my old lap ghost on Odessa Keys Flash, putting me even further on top of the list for NTSC.

When I eliminated 3 ships in one race on Modesto Heights. It's really cool to see a 5 instead of an 8 for the lower number. In this same race, two of those eliminations were with a single Plasma bolt. I don't know how, but it did.

I'd say entering the top 5 times for Sebenco Climb Rapier SL is pretty cool... :P hate myself for ruining an even faster lap at the last turn though :(

EDIT: Make that top 4. :P

The moment I finally gained the rank of a Purist! (a few days ago...)
I thought it would take years...well, thanks to Icaras and finally Triakis it was a striking success. :o

Hey ! Well done Flinty! :clap:rock

Dave.:)

Thank you mate! Much appreciated! Currently, I´m stucked at a Flash-Tournament at Delta...I´m sure it will be a cool PurE moment again, if I gain a gold medal there without running into mines and bombs frequently. ;)

Stupid AI...*grumble*

I went ninja on Karbonis Flash during the Classic tournament, scoring a lap time of 22:09, all the while not hitting any walls in the process. I came so close to hitting the walls on the first twisted section of the track, but was extremely shocked that I walked away scratchless.

28.21 now for Sebenco Climb Rapier LT...

EDIT: 27.85.

My happiest moment would be when i got purist, Can't even remember when i did this, but i was like 'OMJ OMJ OMJ:hyper'

This is the even more amazing sequel to the original 123 Karnage race event, the report for which can be found here
So, I bring you:

123 Karnage: Part Deux – Stella Strike

Omega Tour, Phantom Class

the grid:

Rapier Racer: RRA, Qirex, Scotland
Mad-Ice: MAD, Goteki 45, Netherlands, currently on tour in Le Havre, France
Stin: STN, Goteki 45, Scotland
Lunar: SPK, Goteki 45, England
Assayeah: ASA, Icaras, Le Havre, France

This Omega tour started innocently enough with a speedy win for MAD on Burgertown. There was no way for ASA to catch him after a violent start with many weapon exchanges, while SPK and STN battled for third, with the Scotsman taking the five points after smooth flying. RRA, the former serial killer of 123 Klan, received some 123 Karma and was eliminated.

Burgertown

MAD 8
ASA 6
STN 5
SPK 4
RRA 0


When the same happened to the dreaded RRA again, on Cardcity, it was perhaps beyond the reach of even such a lethal pilot to come back and compete in this tour, though a near reversal of the top four positions from race 1 meant the tour was in a deadly balance for the rest, after SPK broke clear of the mayhem behind to win.

Cardcity Run results:

SPK 8
STN 6
MAD 5
ASA 4
RRA 0

Top 4 Standings after Cardcity Run

MAD 13
SPK 12
STN 11
ASA 10

On Paris Hair, ASA, MAD, and SPK battled for the lead until lap three when MAD began to assert himself infront. But, just at that moment, SPK in third place witnessed a brutal plasma shot from the french marksman: the dutchman`s Goteki stood no chance. The master blaster of Le Havre then focussed on his piloting and his racing lines, to take the win.

Paris Hair Results:

ASA 8
SPK 6
STN 5
RRA 4
MAD 0


There was then a punch up in Le Havre, with ASA feeling MAD`s anger, as well as his left boot in the frenchman`s mouth. Eventually racing could resume with a tense final race in prospect. The top 4 standings after Paris Hair were:

ASA 18
SPK 18
STN 16
MAD 13

SPK went into the final race knowing that beating ASA was the priority. To win the tour he would have to take care of the frenchman somehow, and hope that STN would not finish too far ahead. As the grid positions were revealed he was disapointed to see himself given 4th, but he cheered up quite a bit when he saw that ASA had been given 5th, to his right and back on the grid. Ready…. Go…… At the start SPK put in a hard shift to the right and this seemed to prevent his main rival, in the Icaras, getting a good launch. Dirty tricks, but this was no time to play nice. Looking good for the English pilot….. SPK sat in fourth for lap 1, with ASA behind. A monkey-turbo BR at the end of the lap took SPK up into second place, behind MAD. SPK then picked up a missile, waited for MAD to reach the open section on lap 2, fired. Off went MAD…… just as a bomb came into view ahead, taking SPK off the side also. Both ships respawned in their previous positions, with the chasing pack now much closer. This seemed to make MAD focus himself, he took off ahead and was not seen again in that race. SPK did not panic, a glance behind told that RRA and STN were between him and ASA. But not for long: primed with a supply of missiles and rockets the two Bravehearts soon took SPK down to fourth. But still, ASA was behind and SPK remained on course for gold, no need to panic. A few laps of battling followed, between SPK, RRA and STN, with 2nd-4th position changing all the time. At the start of lap 5 all pilots were feeling the pressure, and a mistake from SPK saw him drop to fourth again, and as he recovered from the wall hit ASA sped by – suddenly the Frenchman was on course to win the tour instead. But SPK, now 5th and facing disaster, still didn`t despair – he picked up a turbo on the open section, to save for the monkey hill at the end, and knew he had a great chance. He sat in 5th, while ASA ploughed into the fight with RRA and STN, unable to force his way through on the narrow straight after the open section. Even if ASA had a turbo too, SPK was confident he couldn`t cleanly use it with RRA and STN so close ahead of him. Shield was low, a slight worry, but SPK had just enough energy for the final BR at the monkey. SPK was just a second down on the pack as the monkey came into view – in fifth place, but confident the tour was his. He hit turbo and sailed over the heads of RRA, STN and ASA – nice smooth BR, landed cleanly pointing down the final straight towards glory…… then….. “Missile”.... SPK hears the deadly warning, but the missile will never hit him as another pilot has his sights on the Englishman, with an even deadlier weapon..... Over the last weapon pad STN has picked up a plasma bolt, and now has ASA and then SPK both ahead of him. It`s now or never for the Scotsman and he has SPK in his sights with the plasma charging: the deadly bolt is unleashed and crashes into the side of SPK`s Goteki 45, he is thrown into the wall, out of control, and explodes instantly. ASA is still ahead of STN, but ASA is passing by the explosion of SPK`s ship – now he is on course to win the tour, but he is caught in the blast of SPK`s dying Goteki, his shield is critical, and the Frenchman`s Icaras cannot survive the blast. He also is eliminated, by the same plasma blast, with the finish in sight, as STN waves to the crowd and cruises down the final straight to a glorious tournament win, achieved with one plasma and a double elimination on the last corner of the last race of the tour!

123 Klan Results:

MAD 8
STN 6
RRA 5
ASA 0
SPK 0

Phantom Omega Results:

STN 22
MAD 21
SPK 18
ASA 18
RRA (unsure of final points, the reporter was too busy laughing and crying……)


Amazing events – but it wasn`t all over. Just two races later, on Anulpha Pass, start of the final lap, ASA and SPK once again demonstrated a synchronized son et lumiere at the hands of a single pilot with a single rocket shot. This time the eliminations were so well-timed that all the pilots heard was one “contender eliminated” with a strange echo. The culprit has not been found, but the name of RRA has been mentioned in connection with the incident, and FX300 Authorities are most interested in questioning him.

I do need to quote that, because, I was thinking of lunar and enjoyed his banter through kai. Seriously I did laughed my head off. Aah memories. Thank you Lunar ;)

stevie:)

Flash Speed Lap/Free Play on Blue Ridge using Zone Ship, using a turbo on the big-jump, Barrel Rolling, and slamming on the Right Airbrakes to clear the corner. I managed that once, but I was unable to reproduce it.

Recently, I was on Citta Nouva, I was doing very poorly, and just before I reached the first hairpin, I got hit by a missile. However, getting pushed to the side actually caused me to land on the speed pads, helping me navigate the corner sequence and pull ahead in first-place.

1. There were literally 6 ships in front of me, just about to cross the line in Chenghou Project and I used the boost I preserved at the last minute and came first by half a second.

2. I won by 1 millisecond in Modesto Heights once. And I won by 3 milliseconds in Citta Nuova once. Both in Phantom.

3. I always save a boost in Modesto Heights until I reach that one big jump and that's when I use it and my ship goes incredibly high and I just love that moment when I can see the whole cityscape background of the track in front of me, and also I go over all the other ships and shave off lots of lap time.

Ehm, I always get first place in Citta Nuova in Phantom Class with my beloved Assegai!

You, sir, are not human.

Also, the Double-Ramp on Chenghou Project is an absolute living nightmare (literally) on Rapier Class with the Icarus. I used a Turbo, hit the speed pad, did a barrel roll, landed on the very edge of the second ramp, and flipped upside-down. Fortunately, my momentum kept me going, and then I hit the speed pad, flipping my craft right-side-up.

That was hilarious, awesome, and downright frightening, all at the same time.

Then what am I, an android? XD No really, do I really play like an Asian in Pure? ^^

Hmm, best moment... I think I actually have to say that the best moment I ever saw (in terms of the entertainment I got out of it) came from watching my friend race at Staten Park. I had just introduced him to WipEout, and he had picked up the handling for Pure rather quickly. It was his first time at Staten Park (in Vector) and he pulled out to an early lead. He was feeling pretty good and making comments about how good he was at this track, and how he was dominating. This all ended quickly on the final lap: As he was approaching that really tiny jump before the last corner on the last lap, the electronic voice said "Quake." He tried to stay in the middle of the track and kept the accelerator jammed, but right before his ship began to go off the jump, he was hit by the quake, which, at Vector slows you nearly to a stop, and his ship managed to drift over the jump going slow enough that it fell into the abyss and had to be respawned in fourth place. I was laughing so hard at this point, and he couldn't believe the turn of events. He failed to advance his position and gained no medal, which angered him even more. It took me a few minutes to calm down, that was one of the unluckiest WipEout experiences I have ever seen, and I give him hell to this day about falling into one of the smallest track splits in WipEout. It's become a classic story between us, and I will never forget it.

Maybe old but that is the best pure moments for a long time!
