I've never pulled it off but I'm gonna make it a personal mission now, it looks awesome :g

I can't even do a double. O_o

Me neither come to think of it! In fact last light I missed the single on one lap haha. Mind you I was missing loads, my left thumb was really saw and it's like I was chickening out of thrashing it round the D-Pad too much.

I've also been missing boost starts a lot recently, which is weird. Maybe I need a break.

WipEout Overload? :p

I'm always surprised when people only discovers those tricks, this video was released more than 2 years ago. :rolleyes:

JKP: WipEout Overload?

Possibly, but no more than most of the people on here :lol

Leungbok, I've seen the triple before the loop on a few vids, but I don't think I've seen the last one before, that's some crazy bounce / pitch you've got there.

quick question for you guys.

I recently got wipeout HD from the PSN welcome back offer, and i was trying to get my brother to get the game also, but he said that when he downloaded it that it wasn't any where to be found. I told him to look in the stores download list but says it isn't there, when he went back to try get it again, the welcome back offer for it was removed.

In the end he was only able to recive 1 of the 2 games available.

is there a way to recover it for him or is he out of luck?

thanks


Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this

Since he left it late and the WB program is over, I'm afraid you're probably out of luck, but it's worth a look:

Go to Account Management, select Services, and from there he should be able to find an option that allows him to download it - if he actually managed to get it from the WB program.

I think this is the same problem I had; where added a game to my cart and the PS store bugged out and seemed to think I made a final selection, automatically removing the title from the list of games I could select.
If your brother had the same problem, he won't be able to download the game as he never actually made a "purchase" of it in the allotted time.

@ Leungbok
I agree, I thought that trick was old hat by now ;P

Still cool though!

thanks Amp, i'll have to go take a look for him

Hi all.Is grid position totaly random or is there some sort of method of selection and would the guy in 8th on the grid get a better boost (if you can achieve it) than the guy in first.

Dave.:D

As far as I'm aware, previous race positions are taken into account online, so if you finished first, you'll start 8th, finished 2nd, start 7th and so on. As for boost, I'm not sure.

For single races the grid positions are supposed to be random. For tournaments they are as trackripper says, i.e. the reverse of the finishing positions from the previous race.

However, sometimes the game gets confused and in single races the starting positions get stuck as exactly the same for a few races. Best to start a room if you notice that happening.

Is there a limit to how much I can side shift? Maybe it's the lack of a fast trigger finger, but I can only seem to side shift only once every three seconds (absolutely fatal for me at Sol2 and Chenghou Project)!

There is a delay. Not quite 3 seconds, but it's nevertheless still an annoying amount of time to wait.

I'm glad there's a delay to be honest. For one thing it makes you think a bit more and choose your side shifts carefully.

Here's a random question, in what year is WOHD set? I've done a cursory search but can't seem to find out.

shouldn't it be in between Pure and Pulse in terms of chronology as its FX350 (i think)?

Just realised that didn't answer your question. Oops :P

it plays between 2197 and 2207.
on modesto u can read 2197 as a holo on starting grid, but i believe i read it's placed in 2206. really don't know exactly, sry

I know Chal wrote a race report that was set in 2211 but that's all I've found. Cheers Jan.
