Me wants Wipeout HD. I fkn loved wipeout 2097. Was one of my 1st PS1 games.

[Ploid]

Wipeout is so hard. :<

[Ploid]

Are you this hardcore at wipEout Ora?

Man I suck at this game. Going to try to edit the controls next time I play. I hear adjusting airbreak, and acceleration sensitivity helps. This guy in the video seems to have no problems, although the, uh craft don't seem to have that much speed/acceleration to it. Maybe I shouldn't use cockpit view anymore either if the airbreak and acceleration tweak goes well. I use cockpit because I seem to oversteer, and understeer too often in the chase views.

I need to exp burn this game.

I used to be on 2097 but i haven't played it in years!!!

Play it on the inside view, stood up, when drunk. Hilarity ensues. ^.-

I totally agree. Takes ya way back, but the game is hard. I only killed 3 bosses and I had it since thursday.

[ItsSeflol]

Ya at the e3 expo they said they made it a lot harder.

How the heck are people doing this? I mean this turn right after that big jump where he cut through the level some. Each time I get to that big turn I figure I'm supposed to let off of gas (or should I say thrust) to slow down. Yet these people are going in like it's so easy. This game is hard, but they are making it look too easy.

I need to get good at this game. I'm the weakest in my group of people. Nightwing was all over the place when he first started, now he's owning while I keep bumping into the walls. Grrrr

Is it the airbrakes? Cause I press those things stupidly hard. I also have this problem on another track with a sharp turn right after a boost tile. I find myself settling for bronze medals now. That's so not how I role. And I'm on novice...

Man I hate asking for help in racing games. This is what I'm supposed to give advice in. It had to be flying cars to give me problems.

BTW I'm with team Piranha now so I don't want to betray that team if I can help it. I want the loyalty points to unlock the other Piranha skins. They handle like boats, but they are fast without relying on boost tiles. Good for online while everyone else is using Feisar and Assegai. Help me Ora, you're my only hope.



Piranha


Assegoi

[ItsSeflol]

that star wars game where you race as one of those race things from the movie was a fkn sweet 64 game

[Yorke]

Rogue Squadron?

Piranha


Assegoi

Feisar were always the slowest and easiest to handle. Piranha was retardly fast but hard to handle (and was a secret ship on 2097 @ least). I used Qirex (sp?) or wotea it was on 2097. And tht turn seems to be done with some nice use of the air brakes. Guessing the air brakes are still on R2 & L2 which wud now make them analogue where u can apply diff amounts on them right? If so tht is gonna take some getting used to lol.

Rogue Squadron?

that game was pwn, but i do remember the game he was talking about, it was SW ep1 racing (where you piloted shit like anakin's race) it was really good, forget the name though

[Oraphin]

Pod racer or something along those lines.

And it sucked, cos it was from phantom menace which can go fk itself with a baseball bat full of nails. And while it's @ it stab tht fkn annoying jaja in the face with a machete covered in napalm.

Yes i love tht movie

[Ploid]

Also, which came first? Pod racers or wipEout? Wipeout was on PSX, also Pod racers was on N64 + movie since it's based on the movie. Hmm.

[Oraphin]

F-zero came b4 all of them HA!!

[Darkwarrior]

^

fzero on snes anyone?!

[Ploid]

I remember my F-zero game breaking when a friend came over and dropped it by mistake. Those carts were expensive. He was the guy I found out turned gay when I was on FFXI that day. He acted like such a player back in high school, and got on my case on how few girls I messed with.
