    Hisho, you don't want it.

    Played last night. The inputs I was putting in were registering about one seoond or sometimes more too late, making the game feel like auto assist was going on. This was the worst night of HD yet gameplay wise. All the usual stuff was in there like br's not working. ship getting jammed around while other ships go straight as an arrow. It gets so bad, I started playing even worse. Noticed yesterday one mine bringing me to a dead stop. ONE. super weapon here. Have to play completely diffferent from offline on turns due to input lap, jamming brake to get that ****ing sideshift to work in advance, BUT THEN HERE IS THE CATCH, sometimes it works on time, and just turn straight into the wall on a ****ing straightaway since I was trying to anticipate the lag. What a bundle of joy. Played some one on one with travis later, and that was better control wise, of course barring the BRs working 20% of the time, at least I could steer.

    COMPLAINING about complainers: There is a reason people are really ****ing pissed here. It may not be happening on some peoples games, but rest assuredly, it is definitely happening on mine, and Ih8you's, ag wolf, and others. The reason for the extreme complaining, IS we are sitting down at night to have a fun time with a game, a game that we all "LOVED" to play. Maybe we are coming home from work and have been looking foward to just sitting, relaxing, and playing a little wipeout, or maybe our kids just went to bed, and we finally have a chance to play after a few nights of not getting a chance to play. Whatever the reason, we are sitting down to have a good time with our favorite series. At this point, the way to play is HD, since everyone is playing that version. We remember when the game first came out, and while the game had a few bugs, there were very few if any major problems. I could go straight to a Multi race (even with 8 players) and get a good race right off the bat, or at least the controls were doing what I asked them to do, so if I lost, it was my fault, or weapons. NOT some randon not working bug that seems to be at every other turn. We keep playing, in hopes that the next game will be better, and we will race better, but we know deep down that is not going to happen, but we try anyway, only to get worse and worse due to the frustration. /the only hope now when it is playing like this, is to get into first place and have noone else on you screen, and then sometimes it plays ok, or play one on one (although this still doesn't play as good as even 8 players used to). wE HOPE every time we turn on that system that it will be back to the good "old days" before 1.30.

    I AM BEGGING FOR SL TO PUT THIS BACK HOW IT WAS at the very least give a link option so we can play in 1.26 mode.

    So the rant is over. Before you complain about complainers, realize what they just went through online, and that they just got done being incredibly frustrated, add to that their memory of what the game used to be, and that is why we are so angry.


    WHO IS RESPONSIBLE:

    1) everyone I believe

    2) complaints about how BRs only worked 90% of the time ( I am included in this)

    3) compaints about pilot assist and wanting an option: we got it: expense? But it also should have not been in there, but I'll take it back in a heartbeat if the bugs were gone

    4) spectator mode: strictly sony, they must know this is causing problems, but refuse to take it out until it is fixed

    5) Sony's silence on all matters wipeout: Yes, they frequent this site, once a week Keep people updated. Other game companies do that. These people love your games, and after pulse with the lack of communication, people do not believe things are being fixed, and rightfully so. At the very least acknowledge that something added is causing major problems in the game before you start losing people, and that you are working on it. I understand getting a good "**** you" for people wanting wanting wanting. EXP: faster speed class, no auto assist, ect. Actually I don't understand that, but to my point. When people give you feedback that says the game if playing absolutely ****ing horrible when it used to play great, acknowedge them or expect more of the same from far more people.

    LAST NOTE: Why can't the game be put back to 1.26 until the bugs are worked out? If the reason is they cannot be worked out, then just give us the old game. I'd rather have what was, than 100 new tracks the way it is now.
