Wow, I'm a little surprised on the tracks because I adore them. I was nervous about both the black/white thing and the mag strips but Pulse has really impressed me with regards to the tracks. Even Outpost 7 which I hate due to the aggressive AI (my biggest beef with Pure and still here in Pulse) I really enjoy in head to head or time trial. Moa Therma is stunning in both look and layout. Actually there are loads of track highlights for me.

And I love how the mag strips have been handled and that's something that could have gone horribly wrong. I still wake up in cold sweats having had nightmares about Fusion.

But, yes, I totally agree with Sausehuhn on the AI. There's always been a racing vs battle thing in WO but, for me, losing a race makes me feel I have to do better. Getting eliminated annoys me. It rarely, if ever, feels like I really could have done anything about it, especially when the attacks come in quick combos.

But when Pulse is racing, it's great. As in Pure, for some reason some tracks keep the AI nice and mellow (Moa Therma) and some turn them into wild animals (Outpost 7 and Platinum Rush).

I love the leech beam too so can't agree with that. The thing about the beam is that it is consistant, so you know what you have to react to, unlike the disruptor in Pure. I think that's fair.

Other than that, yeah, I've had a few bugs and a few crashes too but, overall, I'd have a hard time finding 10 things I hate about Pulse.
