I don't recall any final lap message in WO3 NTSC. Or even GT for that matter. :D

It's there, but only in internal, and not as "strong" as the Pulse Concave effect.Quote:

They updated the HUDs to have all the features of the original HD HUD. Notice how it also writes in green who eliminated whom during a race? Never happened in Wo3 either.Quote:

Well, it's the HD version of elimination, which means "not at all, but a quarter second penalty".
OK, I just had it! Firstly: I use the 2097 HUD - hell, is there even another? ;) But what's driving me crazy is that I must not LOOK at the HUD when the race is about to start. Because you know what I do? Thanks to an unconsious reflex, I keep pressing the accelerator immediately - in order to rev up turbo start energy. Only happens with the legacy HUD. Damn nostalgia!!!
Gotta love it. :))

:lol some serious mental conditioning there!
I think a final lap indicator is vital. I can`t always keep count to four, let alone five, when in the midst of some of the more terrifying battles you can get into.
I unlocked WO2097 HUD yesterday and I only played a couple of race with it.
The design est much more cool than the HD one, but it's also way to large !!!
The weapon slot, when filled, is a pain in the *ss, and the energy scale is way to hard to read especially in critical battles.
I also unlocked W3O HUD, but haven't tested yet. I will but for now HD is the more user friendly for me.
I don't like the position indicator in tournament. I don't care whose in front of me, since I only need to be 1st ^_~. I only need to now how many ships are in front of me like in single race mode.
There was a final lap message in special edition, and it was yellow.Quote:

The WO3 HUD is perfect. Yeah you don't get the indicator of who is behind you, but meh. I'm old school hardcore. I don't want everything done for me :)
Look closer Axel, there's a little yellow arrow on the left lower side of the Wo3 HUD. However it doesn't show how far is your follower.
Ah, I saw that playing on my HD TV, couldn't really notice it on my normal TV lol. Well nevermind, i wont be looking at it anyway :)
Look at the billboard at the finish line where the race countdown is. It says "FINAL LAP" and you also hear it.Quote:

Been playing with the 2097 HUD exclusively since I unlocked it. It looks absolutely killer. I don't know if I can switch to WO3 now. :g
Only one I miss is this Pulse HUD

When I used it, somehow feel of speed was doubled.:banzai
I hope SL guys bring it back in addon content.
Lucas RD, that DOES look great.
For me I have been playing with the 2097 HUD, and it looks absolutly killer on my screen (2408WFP). The screen has awseome colors that make this HUD looks amazing imo. Need to try the other aswell. Been sick of the defult HUD...
Loaded the WO3 HUD and never looked back. I saw a vid with the new HUD on and was thinking which HUD was that? Totally forgot about HD original HUD lol.
HD hud. Why chose one without the ship indicator is beyond me.
I agree. Some of you may remember that I absolutely hated the new HUD when the first screenshots surfaced, but now it's the only valuable choice for me. I still like the other two HUDs better from an artistic viewpoint, but the clarity and display of useful information on the new HUD is unbeatable.
All the HUDs have the same features, just placed differently, no? There's the proximity detector on 3's HUD too. After what I need is energy, lap time and position, and I'm happy. And with 3's HUD I can find that easily because there's no horizontal striping of the text written in shiny colors (If you see what I mean).
Wipeout HD Fury 2009-7
Thank you very much Studio Liverpool for finally giving us the option to disable the shaking+stretching HUD effects. Best 8 quid I ever spent. The stable display looks far more satisfying and even enhances the speed boost effect – which looks cool now! I use the HD HUD all the time now – its great to finally see through it with consistant clarity.
PS – By the way, Fury is not bad too!
PPS – Only kidding! It is a beautiful piece of work. Particularly love Aphisium reverse – wonderful lighting effects and cool airtime sequences.
I love my SL :)
The disabling of the HUD effects was there before. :)
I'll get me coat.
LOL
No you can stay xD Welcome :)
I don't think I knew about it, so thanks for raising the point. I'll look into it - might be better :)
First, the 2097 HUD is the best one ever, and the ship indicator is redundant if you're playing with 5.1 surround. :)Quote:

I would love if they let us customize our HUD mainly if we could cut out things like the boost icon and others for speed laps and trials ciz not everyone wants that stuff taking up space ESPECIALLY the boost icon in the middle of the freakin screen. I use the Wip3out version cuz I am most comfy with that but I could really do without the largeness of the bottom icons, too.
And no HUD would also be a great option for those that want it. Many game have done this and so should this great one.
