Is there a reason you chose the team you have?

EG-X because I gotta support the home team. I think that it also looks the best from behind due to its angular wings and huge chromed engine nozzle. It's also like Nokia: designed in Finland, made in China.

Ya know, I've just given up all hope. I can't decide on my favorite team for my life. One day I will be racing with Mirage, then the next day I'll be racing with AG-Systems, and so on. Every ship has just one little thing that I love so much, except for Qirex. That's the only team I will probably never like. :g

EG.X because I'm chinese and the team was a merger between Xios and EG.r

Harimau on faster classes due to its all round stats and it looks like a sexy bitch, on flash and venom, Icaras because the only thing what lets you down there are the shield, on low speeds you need'nt care about handling or thrust.8)

Feisar,icaras and harimau.
Feisar-phantom
Harimau-Rapier
Icaras-Flash and venom.

I'm thinking which should be why you choose your favourite ship: Nationality,Looks or Stats.
I like FEISAR because the 10/10 handling helps especially in taking tighter turns.I'm Singaporean,but I mainly use FEISAR. Though some times I do use Harimau.

I'm dutch and Harimau is orange ^_^

Oh wait...I use the silver one.

....

Now I remember, it's because Fury made it way too good :g

I'm Dutch and colourblind, so I use big orange Goteki, or cute orange Icaras, or nimble orange AG-Systems. It's all orange to me, and no-one else can prove otherwise. In your face you bunch of hairy normal-sighted chumps!!! :g

I used to be a big Auricom fan in 2097/wip3out/fusion/pure/pulse, but on HD i have been mainly using Pirhana (as it was pre-requesite to get beat Zico ((kudos to Zico))), AG-Systems (its a good all rounder) and Icaras (Fast).

The first time I was flying piranha was in WO 2097, my boyfriend played on PC. Just a few times, but ist was the beginning of a great love.
Now I was buying my PS3 a few weeks ago and I tested the other ships as well, but the only one I really prefer is my piranha. It has a great shield (very important) and it is very fast. Well, it is controllable like jelly, but it doesn't matter. Because I'm not such a good pilot, I practice a lot and try to get better.

i use piranha mostly of the look and its futuristic symbol of that fish (seen in pure) with the word "hungry" on it
also with that ship i know how long i had to steer to fly through the tracks without scratching the walls
i dont like the fury edition of that team because its way too clumsy for me... also the symbols on the fury ship are looking like halloween cucurbitas
i didnt really worry about the statistic of the ship when i chose it xD

i like the background story for harimau with the tiger repopulating and bio fuel eco friendlyishness, also i dont see alot of harimaus online or at higher ranks in SL on alot of tracks(mostly icaras and some feisars), i kinda take joy in piloting an underrated ship and putting up good times with it...plus the black/yellow skin is my fav hands down, also gotekis all yellow is very nice to:nod

Except Yeldar with some SL WR on various tracks ! ;)

I've always been a fan of the average racers/vehicles. Jack of all trades, master of none.
Mirage fan! :g

Harimau just feels perfect. All the ships look swanky as hell, but my favourite will always be the Fury Zone Battle version. It's only weakness is that cause of it's small size and not great shield, it can get seriously bullied by the other ships!

I don't really have much of a reason for liking AG Systems, other than I like how the ships look and the way they control.

AG sys for me too. Dunno why really i just seem to get better results with it over the others but in saying that i used a Goteki 45 the other day and it is so different yet the results were pretty much on par with the AG so i reckon most of the time its just a psychological thing with ship preference.

Dave.:D

AG SYS for me since:

1 - they've been there since the beginning
2 - Let's Be Friends! Remember when wipEout was more friendliness along with competition
3 - it can fly circles around bombs and pylon AIs

I currently fly Icaras. It's fast.

And it's funny winning Eliminator events with it. I mean, come on, Plasma Bolts cripple you no matter if you fly Triakis or Icaras, so why delay the inevitable?

I used to be loyal to FEISAR in Pure, but ever since I realised their speed just wasn't enough to keep up with competition in HD/Fury, I've switched to Qirex and Assegai for aggressive games like Eliminator and Harimau for calmer races due to the lower shield... Although I do have to admit that the sensitive handling does get a bit much on the more gentle long sweeping corners, so for now, I'm still searching for the ship that does it for me. Was impressed by Goteki 45 and EG-X's ships though, Mirage's too if it wasn't for the hideous design, although the Fury ship is a bit better...

I like Fiesar the most. Body style and the way it handles. I'm still new to the WipEout series though.

Used to be harimau for the speed and agility. (icaras for time trials) nowadays I use Mirage for the stability and how it really isnt bad in anything. mostly for how well it sits on the track though, theres no drama. oh and in tt I sometimes switch to feisar for it's ability to get out of a corner conserving most of the speed it entered with. feisar is all about precision.

In other WOs I use Feisar, but in HD I find it uncontrolable and so I use AG-S. You won't see me on-line or breaking my personal records with any other ship...

Im a big AG-S fan, just for the chance to get first place early on through its acceleration and then help control the race if i reach the first weapon pad. It looks pretty nice too and for me it handles pretty nicely.
But Icaras for TT and SL for obvious reasons.
And Phantom is normally fiesar or harimau for handling, depending on the track really. (straighter, moa, talons - harimau) (seb,cp,amp - fiesar) xD

Sorry for being off topic, but I've seen quite a few people saying FIESAR. It's not Fiesar, it's F-E-I-S-A-R. :nod

I've never been accused of being a great speller or typist.

I really wanted to use my beloved EG-X like I do on Pulse, but SL must have realised how much it destroys all, and gimped it (or it just doesn't suit the physics of HD, perhaps). :mad:
So I use Qirex Fury for all modes, just because I don't really get on with the feel of any other ships I've tried so far (haven't put the hours in to try everything in the game yet; far too many other games to play! :D).

HD EG-X is better than fury version ! ;)

They were both pretty disappointing IMO. But yeah, something wierd's going on with the camera on the EG-X Fury, as with most Fury ships I've tried (especially Icaras), and it makes the handling feel all messed up. Qirex Fury seems fine for some reason, though (I hate the feel of the HD Qirex).

Although I think I race the best with FEISAR Fury and I enjoy racing Harimau Fury the most, I'm still loyal to my Assegai HD skin 3. If only for the reason that I like the panda thing on the back. Keeps me calm after I run into mines and bombs.

Originally, I had used EG-X for its great balance of thrust and speed, and when I attained full loyalty and could not get past Phantom Speed Chengou Project, I switched to AG Systems.
Mostly for the handling, since Feisar was, I found, too sensitive, and even when I became accustomed to it, the ship couldn't keep up with the others.

Started with Assegai like most players here,but i recently moved on to EG-X.

It matches my gameplay style for 4 reasons:

1.Starts quickly and gets weapon pads first
2.Quickly achieves it's balanced top speed
3.Not-so-good handling helps me in cornering since I don't crash in the inside wall
4.:turd shield makes it fairly balanced

Because i like the color purple... and that's pretty much it. :rock

AG-SYS cos i like how it handles and automatically select it.Guess i,m just a creature of habit.:|

Dave.

I like Assegai because of the way she says "Assegai" when you select the ship.

I totally adore everything Feisar...

and Blue and Yellow colour schemes.

I use Icaras because I like to think I am Icarus from the Greek Myth who has wings made of feathers and wax and gets too close to the sun...especially on Sol 2....

Feisar as I like the colour scheme and icons, plus it's pretty forgiving (good for my skillset!)

I love Icaras because it's so nice to fly~.. and also Barnston Burns is fantastic. :>

I always use Qirex. I like the handling of the ship - it feels dense and well built.
I can use most other ships, but I refuse to use the Fury style ships, or Mirage as I think they look disgusting.
