Damn! So I'm not doing anywhere near as good as I thought I was. lol

Pulling those barrel rolls off, is so bloody hard. Loving it though.

Actually you may or may not be getting good times, it depends on when the thing updates, like i played on Thursday a lot and my scores were no where, then on Sunday i started to see my scores on the Global list, so who knows... hopefully they will fix that in the future, they got the rest of the game right, cant believe something as simple as sending/receiving times and synchronizing them to the server would cause this much problems, i mean even playing the game online is lag free.

Yeah, that is crazy. Seems like the simplest of things.

Would be pretty cool if you could view replays, and upload them directly to youtube, or any other video sharing site.

haha that would be Sick!!!, maybe some day it will happen, i know Sony is planning to include a "Take Picture" mode directly from the XMB, so who knows what the future will bring.

Would be nice, PixelJunk Eden managed the Youtube upload so would of been cool if maybe the Liverpool Studios could maybe patch it in one day :)

I have to say, this game looks amazing, but it does have a let down... im crap at it >.<

it takes me dozens and dozens of attempts to get to a podium position, and even then it takes me a load more attempts to get gold :(

are you guys using the motion control or joystick ?

[morficus]

lol, I totally feel you clx

I was able to past Uplift relatively easy... but not Warped.. after trying for like 2 hours... there are still 3 cells in Warped that I can't pass, and I'm missing 4 points to unlock Frenzy.

I'm using the joystick, just because I didn't have the patience to adjust the SIXAXIS sensitivity settings.

My worst type of race BY FAR is Zones.... I can barely make it past Zone 12 - lol

And looking at the trophies really made me laugh:

- Campaign Legend - Obtain a gold medal for every cell in Race Campaign

- Airbraker - Reach Zone 50 (Subsonic) in Zone Mode on any track using only airbrakes and sideshift. Motion sensor controls must be turned off

- Zone Zeus - In Zone Mode, reach Zone 75 on any track

- Arcade Perfect - Finish 1st on all 16 tracks in Phantom class Racebox races on Elite difficulty

I'm not sure if I will ever make it to that point - lol

Wipeout has always been about learning the track design. The sheer pace of the game means you really do need to know the next few corners in advance :)

I love the game and can see me playing it for quite a while yet, not even tried the online side.

[MightyJordan]

Is there any word on a demo for this?

Skip the demo wait and just get it :D

i have learnt most of the tracks so far (got all gold for uplift, and all gold but 1 for warped) but its just getting that perfect lap :/

I tried online, and i can quite proudly say i have a 100% gold record online :D

that may be because i only did 1 race... but i won it! and on a track i had never seen before no less! :D

What he said ^^^

Guys have patience, it gets really really addicting once you start learning the tracks and get used to the speeds.

[morficus]

question about a trophy:

Flatland Flyer - Execute and land a successful barrel roll on Moa Therma

(Moa Therma is the one with the electrified floors in "warped")

Has anyone gotten this as yet?? I can't find a spot to execute any sort of barrel roll on that track... some pointers would be nice ;)

On the last corner before the start finish straight there is a speed up pod on the right hand side, you need to boost into the left side barrier will shoot you up and over :)

:blink:

I guess I never noticed that bump 'cause I hardly ever make that speed pod :p

thanks :)

edit:

oh, and for those you don't know how to do the "boost at start"... all you have to do is hit "X" (accelerate button) as soon as the count-down turns to "GO". This will give you a nice little boost at the start. If you hit "X" any time during the count down... it won't work....

[Xerxes]

Is this game only attainable through the PSN store?

Yep, looks that way. Which is a shame (for me) as I don't have a credit card and you can't get prepaid PSN cards in Australia.

Can't you just give somebody the cash, and get them to buy it for you?

Yes you can get it for free if you find someone to share games with and no, you keep the game in your PS3, the game can only be shared up to five times though.

[Sethos]

Shareable :o
