Don't forget Qirex - Russian Federation is still part of Europe mostly.
But here's a point I'd like to make, we have 12 teams in the series already, and 5 of them have been "revived" in Wipeout Pure after absences in Wipeout Fusion. Then there's EG-r and Xios, missing in Pure, that merge and become EG-X for Pulse.
There is representation for pretty much every region of the earth as well, since we now know that Triakis is primarily based in Adelaide and Icaras hails from Great Britain. The only countries and regions not represented would be Latin/Central America (Mexico), the Carribean Islands, India (and other surrounding countries), and Korea. Eventually there would be teams based on the moon or Mars and such.
Do we need any more teams, though, really? Unless we see a merger between two smaller outfits in the next game, I really don't think it's necessary
-
woohoo, Greek Pride! :D but yeah, Greece is already part of FEISAR because of the whole European Union thing :p
-
I'm still of the opinion that it'd be fun to have an extreme speed and cornering team, because I really like both Icaras and AG Systems, I liked Zone in PurE as an entertaining machine to pilot. Like a cross between Icaras and either EG-X or AG Systems, this sort of...very scary team to pilot, but mastering the ship is a mark of skill for any AG pilot.
I'm finally of the opinion that since each team represents a certain strategy and philosophy in one way or another, there is a limit to how many teams can appear in any one WipEout game before they start stepping on each others' toes and striking the nerves of gamers like us. I think about 12 teams at one time is the limit for me, and if my instincts are correct, almost anyone else here.

For Future wipeout installments
I like all teams from WO3 to remain, as well as Triakis, Mirage (even though I haven't driven it as the NA packs haven't been released yet, or atleast to my knowledge), EG-X, Harimau, a Swedish team and an all Canadian Team
IMO Auricom seemed to become more American when it became a fast, strong and hard hitting Heavey Weight (Think WW2: P-47 thunderbolt, F6F Hellcat etc.)
Canada has made contributions to the wipeout series by hosting tracks: Altima VII, Talon's Reach and Basilico. But I want a Canadian Team :)
There's a Brazilian Team, a pacific Island team, an African team and even a Malaysian team. Why can't there be a Canadian team? :cold
-
'Cause Canada is where the great teams have already picked off the craziest pilots? Nobody left who'll switch allegiance...:)

I'll say mine faves, what i will like to fly with/against in a new wipeout:
feisar: never raced on that, but is just an institution
pirhana: fastest ship, possibly with a new design
quirex: unthinkable not to have it in a wipeout game
auricom: as said before, their rivals
goteki 45: maybe not the best team, but my favourite right about now :)
icaras: it's english (i love england) and it always looked very good
ag system: like feisar, it's almost a stand-alone brand
mirage: nice ship, i'd be glad to see it again in the future
about new teams, I would like to race on an italian ship, of course, maybe inspired to our historical car brands..;)
-
Icaras? English?!!!!!!?!!
-
Icaras... Great Britain to be more accurate.
I'd like to see Tigron back, I really love the design they made for Pure.
-
What happened to all that famous Icaras internationalism and opaque origination?
-
That's what Pure and Pulse did to the backstory of the series. Isn't it sad?;) We don't get to guess about anything anymore. Well, actually I suppose we do. There's just less of it left open now.
-
I suppose we're limited to guessing if the new factory is at Cricklewood Green or just in Tottenham. ;)
-
I'd like to see Tigron and Van-Uber resurrected as teams. The story could be:
An eccentric multi-trillionaire who liked Tigron and Van-Uber (and any other resurrected teams) became the manager of the companies and financed their returns personally, including pilot training.
I do like the teams a lot (especially the Pure remakes) and I think this story may be feasible to use.
-
Actually they may still exist in a lower league (if there are any lower leagues of course). And they get back to the 1st league where the WO-games take place?
-
Another very good story.
I hope someone at SL sees these and agrees.
-
I agree, an Indian team would be a good idea, as would a Italian team
I'd like to see the original four (FEISAR, Qirex, Auricom, AG-Systems), Pirahna, Icaras, Assegai, Tigron, Van-Uber and Triakis return for the next WO game. Never was a fan of Goteki45.
-
An Indian team is a great idea, I think, especially as India could become a superpower in the future... But what would be their "thing"?
-
I suppose by thing you mean Tigron's aggressiveness, Harimau's care for nature, Triakis' militarism (they're a weapons manufacturer or somethin', right? :lol ), etc.?
hmm...maybe their ships would be very colorful/flambouyant (I'm sure I misspelled that) and they'd race in a more traditional manner? (perhaps a bit nonviolent, I dunno... :P )
Additionally, perhaps a team from Iceland or Norway would be an interesting addition? White, light blue, and black for colors perhaps...just a random thought. XD
-
About "flambouyant": I'm sure, too. :g
-------
Perhaps the Indian team, if run by a Hindu with a strong sense of history, would have a very large number of arms.. er, I mean, wings? And be painted blue? ;)
-
That was my idea, lol
Could have one with it's livery based losely on the Indian Cricket Team's One Day International Jersey.
Problem with creating new teams is chosing colours that dont resemble exhisting teams.
-
Hmm...possible combos for new teams:
1) cyan, magenta, black
2) purple, green
3) gold and blue? (might kinda resemble Feisar or Assegai, I don't know...)
4) brown, beige, and white
