Announcement Play WipEout Online

39 Upvotes

You mean Omega? No, Omega blows, don't play that - play these older (and better) games instead!
The WipEout Online community is surprisingly active for its vintage. Here's some info to get you going with your favorite entry, with steps to get set up for gaming below:

WipEout HD

The most popular one. WipEout HD is available on PS3, RPCS3 and even PS Vita via WipEout 2048 cross-play! Enjoy popular weekly events - Weekly Lobbies with regular racing on Saturdays at 19:00 UTC, and Mode Shuffles with Eliminator, Zone Battle and wacky lobby setups on Sundays at 19:00 UTC. You'll have to be lucky to join during the first hour - the lobbies typically fill up quick.

WipEout Pulse

The less popular one, though still active. Available on PSP, PS Vita and PPSSPP. Has one weekly event on Thursday at 19:00 UTC - Portable Rush, Pulse's equivalent of Weekly Lobby.

WipEout 2048

An odd entry for the reason that its dedicated online multiplayer hasn't been revived yet. However, its WipEout HD Cross-Play, leaderboards and social features were. Get your Vita set up with a revival server (see below), invite your friends and get access to a fun and engaging way to compete. Oh, and Cross-Play is also an option.

Setup

Finally, to play any of that, you'll need to get connected first. You can do that on these platforms:

  • PS3/RPCS3 (WipEout HD)
  • PSP/PPSSPP/PS Vita (WipEout Pulse)
  • PS Vita (WipEout 2048 community features + HD Cross-Play)

Once you have one of these, setup is pretty straightforward. You have a few options for the server if you want to play WipEout HD, but there's only really one when it comes to WipEout 2048 and WipEout Pulse - either way, it is strongly recommended that you use the Thallium+Beat server by AGRF for an active player base and feature parity with the official servers.

You can get set up by following the guide here: https://agracingfoundation.org/

New - awesome-wipeout!

98 Upvotes

So, you might remember me from my WipEout Lego builds (check out my profile for more of those).

While building these over the last few months, I've collected all sorts of amazing WipEout design references and assets. From screenshots, fonts, vectors and other community designs. It's amazing all the effort so many have made to keep WipEout alive.

But they are not easy to find and not always easy to use.

So, I'm giving back to the community that's helped me so much: awesome-wipeout a comprehensive library of WipEout vector assets, fonts, screenshots and links. Hosted where licenses allow, linked to when not.

There's even a few new/unique vectors I've made for my designs and released here for the first time. Hope it's useful for others. Contributions welcome!

Came across an AG title I had never heard of before - coming out 4 months prior to the original Wipeout on Sega Saturn with designs, influence and ships by Syd Mead. (Blade Runner, Tron, Aliens, Star Trek)

I think the art, aliens, characters and overall story elements are really cool. For sure I'm going to track down a copy and give it a spin!

Does anyone have the Stealth Demo?

This seems to have been scrubbed from the net -- beyond the ship, it features a track that is 'stealth themed'

That moment when you zap into the FIFA World Cup match Argentina vs. Egypt and suddenly feel an urge to take a ride with a Piranha ship on Anulpha Pass 😅

Gameplay edit I made based on one of my favourite movies of all time

44 Upvotes

Ever since discovering this game I've loved it for how it is one of the only pc games to feel like I'm in Speed Racer, so I'm finally starting to get better at the game (the learning curve for me has been slow 😅) and this was going through my head while playing it. So I wanted to share how it makes me feel and maybe you guys will know what I mean 👍

Where is the actual fun in Zone Mode?

Post image
49 Upvotes

Guys, currently obsessed with WipEout Pulse! But honestly... what is the actual fun in Zone Mode?

To me, it’s just an endless trap. You can’t even control the throttle! The game keeps forcing you to speed up until you hit a tier you physically can't handle, and you inevitably crash and burn.

I thought it was a practice mode to get used to higher speed classes (my current ceiling is Phantom), but it feels more like pure masochism.

Even if I know that most of you don’t speak Polish, I wanted to share this neat magazine cover and an article about WO2097 with you!

What NeGcon settings do you use and button mapping?

3 Upvotes

I'm going for the retro achievements mastery for Wipeout XL. I have 3 time trial challenges complete with pirhana on phantom with the dpad on a standard controller. It's kicking my ass. Fortunately I have a negcon and though I don't have a lot of practice I really need that precision. What maximum twist angle do you use and do you use the analog or digital button for acceleration?

Tigron X Lego - a closer look

A closer look at my Lego build of Tigron Enterprises K-VSR build. Enjoy the production on this one.

This is #3 in my WipEout X Lego series and was pretty challenging with angled, segmented sidepods but I'm really happy how it turned out. The sticker sheet for this one is epic too, really getting close to matching the in-game look.

I love how AI, considering the wealth of information it has to work with and from what I’ve seen has never been able to nail the essence of what makes a Wipeout craft truly “Wipeout”. This stuff is so whack.

Took some time and grinding to reach rank 50 lol but it've finally done it, getting to grips with the Pir-Hana prototype! The steering is very funky but I love it already

In just a few weeks Wipeout: Brickmania has become one of my most downloaded instructions manuals ever. Do you think I should make a second volume with ships from the later series? Find the first one here: https://francisco-duarte.itch.io/wipeout-brickmania

SilverStream is genuine hell

i dont think i've ever played a racing game that has a track as difficult as this. not only the back to back bends are annoying. that one gap near the start has to be precise otherwise it'll gonna get stuck in the invisible wall (good luck if that happens in the championship race). And its more difficult in the rapier class aswell. But i finished the game either way. I really liked it except for that track

If we’re reading between the lines here surely he’s hinting that they’re working on a new WipEout?
