Well had a couple of online games last night, first observation was the actual race was lag free :D

second, I choose a venom class, so slowest ships, yet everyone was pulling away from me, its either a glitch that they restrict class, yet select different class, or there are more Venom Ships to unlock?

So I guess the only question is, are there more faster Venom Class ships to unlock?

Ships aren't class specific so yes you may well find people using the faster unlocked ships in Venom.

I have to say that i'm VERY impressed with the quality of this game. Certainly would be interesting if they plan on using this engine for anything else as it seems fairly polished :)

Could someone explain then the Classes, like Venom etc, what does that mean?

Each class relates to the highest speed the ship will reach.

Venom is the slowest, then Flash, Rapier and finally Phantom. When your playing Zone mode the speed will gradually get higher than Phantom (I normally completely loose control of the ships when it gets to Super-Phantom class).

Ah ok, so its like max speeds.

so for example

Venom allows 1000mph max speed, and a ship has 8 speed, its max would be 800mph.

then if rapier is max 2000mph, and ship has 8 speed, it would be something like 1600mph max.

Numbers are obviously out, but just to give clear example.

ok thanks.

Does the game play single songs only, or, say, if I were to post a full on DJ mix, would it just play the first song over and over, or the full mix (like warhawk's in game xmb music).

You have the option to... set "continuous" on the playback mode :)

+1 ;)

You obviously mean uploaded to your PS3, and have no intention of posting links to copyrighted material, because that would get you in trouble here on neowin.

If you would like to discuss this further, please PM me asap :)

Well soniq is a dj, i'm sure it's his own mixes, not sure how the rules are on that.

But even still posting links to the 'remixes' would be close if he doesn't own the rights to the original material that has been remixed. Not too sure on the standing on things like that tbh :shifty:

How do you guys play, with the D Pad or the Analog stick?

I just started playing the game seriously last night, and I cannot get comfortable with which way to use.

Also as far as I know, a DJ Mix is okay to post even though it does contain copyrighted material, something to do with the fact the DJ is expressing themselves by mixing the music together or something along those lines. I know we used to have someone on Staff here who did mixes all of the time, and they were free to post theirs, so I am assuming that is why above. I can look into it some more if needed, as I am not fully clear myself on what the rules are, just basing the above on what I used to see.
