Does every bar represent a skin?

[BARTgai]

heh i wish it did. no, the bars are there to make you feel worse because you still have a long way to go.

[mdhay]

Oh Craphell. I have a lot to go for my flying hocky stick!

up for a few more races, get the times cut in half? Maybe that'll work?

[Alex_Se]

[Medusa]

Well everyone else is busy playing, I'll keep this thread going. Still on Grid 8...halfway there, haha!! If it wasn't so tempting to race infrastructure all the time I'd spend more time actually unlocking the game. Oh well!

Just wanted to say that I finally reached 100% loyalty (100,000 pts) with Qirex last night and have really been enjoying my time playing Pulse. I've only played the game game on Hard difficulty which has given me a ton of loyalty points and I guess made it easier to reache 100%. I'm stuck on my final race on Grid 9 which is the ever increasing, beyond frustrating, Hard difficulty Rapier Tournament. Now I know I'm playing Hard difficulty and all, but this difficulty really is no different than the frustrating issues we had with Pure which is there are WAY TOO MANY WEAPONS on the damn track!

Its no big deal if your playing single races where you can just play a track over and over again til you "get lucky" and beat it in first place, but when your in a tournament of 6 races, and its a flip of the coin whether you are crushed by an onslaught of weapon attacks, or not, then it becomes a problem. I'm really trying to keep the difficulty up on Hard as I've been able to work through the game up til this point, but is it me or does it seem like you take an increasing amount of damage from scraping the wall as the speed classes go up. Not only am I struggling with weapon damage, but I seem to still be dropping a lot of shield power when I scrape the wall as well. Using Qirex, they've always had a good balancing of speed and durability but Rapier Pulse is really a challenge. lol.

Overall, I think the Hard difficulty is not the problem, moreover, the over-abundance of just too many weapon pickup's on the track. The game goes from strategic race, and battle to fight for your life space shooter, while having a side game of trying to get first place.

All in all though, while I have that issue with Pulse, as I also had it with Pure, I still think this is the best Wipeout to date. I also finally tried Outpost 7 after unlocking it close to the end of 9 and don't think its as bad as I'd read here. Its tricky, but I honestly think Citta Nuova was worse in some aspects.

Good job once again Studio Liverpool. My only suggestion for future Wipeout's is that there should be a "Number of Pickups on the track" option in the difficulty settings. That way the player can customize the racing / battling aspects of the track, rather than be forced to pilot through an onslaught of weapon attacks while trying to reach first place.

On a sidenote, I can never find any games active online. I saw them when I first got Pulse and played a few, but haven't seen any since. Is it because I'm playing from the USA?

Here are my basic stats so far:

Race Campaign events complete / total - 125/236

Race Campaign Gold medals won - 125 / 236 Golds

Race Campaign total points won - 375

Racebox races played - 11

Custom grid events created - 0

Gametime Race Campaign - 21:11:14

Racebox - 18.27

Online 2.52

Laps per ship - Qirex 2144

Ship Loyalty - Qirex 100000

[BARTgai]

about the online games; i'm in the US and play online with others all the time. i have noticed that there are fewer games in the lobby, most likely because people are getting too lazy to make their own or something lol. but when i create a game, within seconds, people start joining.

[Vincent_VII]

I just started playing the 3rd Phantom grid. I have been playing through the entire game on "medium".

[Medusa]

I'm still on grid 10, and have been playing with it set at "medium" AI which I know is not normal around here.

[Frances_Penfold]

I'm just starting the Phantom grids-- just about everything else is fully completed with gold medals (mostly with "hard" AI except some of those OP7 tracks )

The time trial and speedlap challenges on Phantom are surprisingly easy-- they definitely have a low bar in term of times-to-beat.

I'm in the U.S. as well (EST) and I find that it entirely depends on when you go online. Most players are in western Europe and hence 6-7 hours ahead of EST (or, uhm, 8-10 hours ahead of western U.S. time zones).

If you target your playing to mid-evening and late-evening by western European clocks, I find LOTS of players. If I go on at midnight EST, there are very few.

Probably (hopefully) this will all change once the game is released in North America

I.e., then you can race the good racers (Europeans) between 8 and midnight GMT and the crappy racers (Americans) between 8 and midnight EST

[BARTgai]

I find that last bit offensive

[zargz]

I thought you Loved 'your European Union'!

[Au_Xtr3me]

no, no he loves his United States but feels a strong connection to his European Union because of his heritage and its sentimental value

A person torn between their passion for their country and the countries of heritage... (I sound like Shakespeare or something)
