Yes I feel your pain this was something I disliked since Pulse. All bombs should stay on the track until someone crashes into them, or have a much shorter timer. It was almost perfect in Pure if only the player who set it could also have been hurt by it then that would have been spot on.

ok as everybody can see a skin editor is really high on the hopes of most of people here, but we know it's absolutely impossible , so i say for fill this lack
please
STUDIO LIVERPOOL SKIN PACKS SKIN PACKS SKIN PACKS!!!!!!!
SL has done some really creative and cool work with many skins ( ok some not so creative but nothing is perfect) so why for please the fans don't release some skin packs , i don't think it is so an hard work to make some packs with additional 3-4 skin per ship
BUFF UP THIS GAME! it has really the potential to became the 100% ultimate wipeout but it has to get more stuff
in general it would improve this game, 'cause for the quality 100% ok, for quantity umm not so
Veteran Pilot
quantity you say ... have you ever think to the price you paid 1 month ago ? 69 euros? nope , 40 still not, even not 20Originally Posted by darkfaerytales
... Ah well
Be patient things will come gradually, new skins are not essential imnhsfo, patch to correct minor or larger bugs pilots have found and hopefully possibilitie to unselect P\Assist for the online hoster would please many wipers.

I've seen persistent AND flickering mines.I'm sure and i can witness that this already exist, but don't know if it's a bug or a programmed feature.I guess it's also the same kind of bug for the bombs.

The least I would like is that they show online next to the persons name that says PA if they have pilot assist on. I swear I saw someone using this today with great benefits, hitting me all over the fing place, so they seemed to have some skill to stay mostly in the middle. I got the sense they were using it when I passed them if I took the inside every time, they were always NEAR the outside wall, and never near the inside
Venom Pilot
I understand the use of PA and I'm for new players to have a better race. Please give a people that don't use it the ability to know who has it on. It has effected my races before when I'm not using it. Several times I've been in race a someone with obvious PA on is fish tailing all over the place, I thought I could pass but they bumper off the wall hit me, I hit the wall come to a dead stop, while they keep going because walls aren't effecting them. Very frustrating.
Or I've had where PA corrects some guy instead of slowing him down he keeps up with me bounces off the wall and knocks me totally off the track. Where as if he didn't have it on he would have hit the wall, slowed down and I could have gotten clear. Instead of fly totally off track costing me 2 to 3 seconds.So it makes me feel penalized for not using PA.
I wish the host could set if to turn it on and off, and for BR's.

Although I am not for PA making someone who has played the game for 15 minutes to be within a couple seconds of ARnaud because of this. I agree with your set limits for online races, that would be nice

you're right mate, but in fact i have never complaint about the price, that price is really really good,far too good, i did mean that if they will release a dlc for near the same price i will be more than happy
the truth is that the game is REALLY RELLY well done, the most gorgeous i ever seen on my life, but the problem is after a while is pretty bare...
skin packs are pretty useless ok, but istead of hope and dreaming for the impossible to do, why don't concentrate in things that they could do for real, ain't for you 2 dozen of skins more possible to do than a skin editor in high definition, or a new game engine through DLC?
Venom Pilot
Unfortunately when you play in SD you don't get these details.
You don't get the country of origin of each player either.
Wonder why they can't let these come up in 480 resolution?
Content Contributor
Too small of a resolution to get all the details in and readable. It would be useless to have the country flags if only three pixels are used to display it.
Compare 640x480 (Or 768x576) to 1920x1080 on this image and you will see.

There are a few things I want to see in DLC (if we get DLC):
Mainly from this video (wipeout XL; Talon's Reach) I would like to have the following in HD:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_VbjOxsA0g
1. the interesting textures for the track, and the black background.
2. the shortcut. I dont know if HD has big shortcuts like that.
3. the electronic voice as an option in settings. Don't get me wrong, I like the voice in HD.
4. the smoothness and speed of that track. maybe a track built for zen speed with at most 1 BR per lap, or no BR at all. Scraping the walls might get annoying though.
5. red bull ads. at least 1.
Wipeout HD is my first wipeout game, and I've been watching tons of wipeout videos since I started; the XL videos look the most interesting. I just picked up XL to try it out.
other thoughts:
Sorry if I talk about F-Zero a lot here, but the last racing game i got into was the original fzero on snes.
6. F-Zero on the SNES would give you a little bump forward when your engines powered back on; it was something I really got used to. So far I haven't seen this in wipeout, but maybe I missed something with one of the ships. Hopefully they'll add a new ship that gives a bump when igniting the engines, but I abused this too much.
7. Something similar to a blue shell to take out the leader. just dont give it to the computer AI. This isnt a well thought-out idea.
8. avatars
9. I was sitting at the multiplayer screen waiting for the host to press the "start" button for like 5 min, and he never would. It would've been nice to somehow know what his intentions were, or if he was afk. Someone mentioned the idea of doing TTs until the MP game starts; that would be useful. I got bored and played single player; which probably made him wait longer.
10. After a race there's no way to check to see how far you were from a medal. You have to return to the grid to see the gold/silver/bronze time requirements. It would be nice to have that information from within the event.
11. the ability to watch/save replays, and take screenshots during replay playback
12. split-screen online (this should probably be at the top of the list)
14. After your car explodes you can let off the gas and then re-ignite the after-burner. pretty funny, but I wouldnt call it a bug. Maybe it should fire confetti out the back?

The more I think about it the more even the idea of a replay feature gets me excited.
Imagine having a replay feature like Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars (.mp4 version is much sharper and a larger picture), that has the coolest replay feature I have seen. Just the idea of if WipeOut HD had a feature like this, to be able to say a replay of a online, offline race, or any TT, Zone race. Then to be able to watch it from different drivers point of view, and from a 3rd person track camera. With the ability then to save it to your PS3 as a .mp4 video file, or be able to send it directly to YouTube.
Just think how within minutes of a tournament being hosted the races are being show on online for everyone to enjoy, and since each player would be able to save there race replay, each competitor would have there own version there own point of view of what happened. Besides the 3rd person track view.
Leaving in the player names above the cars, being able to go directly to youtube or as a higher resolution .mp4 file, to be hosted on a website such as WipeOutZone.com.
As it is right now replays of a limited sort are in WipeOut HD, as ghost laps, they do keep track of every movement your ship makes during a lap.
Just imagine being able to go online and seeing Asayyeah next WipeOut Convention in almost real time as it unfolds.
Then the same replay file could be view and used with photo mode, for online events can have amazing pictures taking during the heat of a race, and to be able to have player names visible if so desired.
Before you out put your replay to a video file or to a website, you could save the same outputted file more then once with different perspectives. The outputted filing could then be transferred to video editing software if the person feels crafty.
Now of course the output video would not be 1080p, 60 fps, but would be good enough to show off the feature and for online use. Where photo mode during replays would still be max screen resolution.

elimination mode

that we can set a ammount of rounds per track.
(3 to 4 rounds are over so quickly sometimes.....)
Zone Pilot
@b4p
Car? lol
anyway, Fzero, as you probably know, is waay different to wipEout, and admittedly, the latter[wipEout] is better. My point is that the little after burner function that you mention is nothing more than an airbrake-esque mechanism.

Geez that guy is fast

I'm not sure whether or not this would improve the game but I'd like to have a true cockpit view. One where you could see the instrumentation inside the ship yet still have the first person perspective. I've tried the one that's on there now and it's awesome but I just don't get a good sense of my ship in relation to the track.
Extreme Pilot
LOL I just clocked!! Cheeky buggerGeez that guy is fast
Venom Pilot
I was sitting here thinking about it, I kind of miss how in Pure and Pulse it would have a announcer giving a brief history of the track. I know a lot of people didn't like the guy, but it made it seem more of a real place. Plus for all the new people to WOHD it would give them a little back story in to the universe.
Venom Pilot
The game uploading your ghosts when it uploads your lap times, to facilitate: players able to look at the online scoreboards and select a score to drop straight into a Time Trial or Speed Lap (whatever you're looking at) against that ghost.
Venom Pilot
Kind of like Gran Turismo 5 Pro Logue, when you look at the scoreboard you can get the ghost laps from each person.
