Wipeout HD Competition

[koopatroopa90]

I like this track, but have realised I was stupid to suggest it as there is (virtually) nowhere to barrel roll and I am not good enough to win on a straight run. Played for an hour or so this morning and on one go I didn't hit the wall and got all but 1 speed pad and didnt even beat my current time!

I'm all over the walls! Well not firm contacts but I scrape my way through a lot of the longer and tighter corners. On my fastest time I didn't get any barrel rolls at all, but I can normally manage 1, maybe 2 on this track.

I sometimes manage a barrell roll on the bit after the right hand turn when you drop down. But to manage the roll and miss the wall and hit the speed pad is quite tricky.

I'll keep it at a week a turn then no worries.

koopa, whats your PSN so we can add each other and see everyones times on the friends leaderboard?

Leonidas0209 is my UK gamertag [which I purchased this game on].

Holy crap. 1:41.70 is the fastest I can do. I spent half an hour unlocking Sol 2 as I lost my original save.

I don't think I can do a sub 25 second lap actually.

[Rossco]

Yeh it's a pretty tough track in places. I'll give it another go maybe Wednesday night if I can but I really don't expect to get anywhere near SH4R4KU's sickening time!

[SH4R4KU]

I am ready for another track now

Where to next?

[Rossco]

Any requests?

[Rossco]

Okayyyy, new challenge. This time it's a Zone one on Moa Therma. Simply who can clear the highest zone. I managed 29 so far after a few turns.

Gonna have to set the deadline a bit earlier this time as I'm away to India for a week on the 2nd June. So I'll set up another challenge after this one to run the week I'm away. I'm then moving up to Dundee for the summer the day I come back so will be a bit chaotic but I'll try get challenges up for everyone to play.

Challenge 4
Type: Zone
Track: Moa Therma
Deadline: 31/05/11 Midnight GMT

1. Rossco - Zone 29

[SH4R4KU]

Sweet! Away we go.

Sorry I didn't reply but was snowed under with work and then had a lot of meetings. Nice challenge, this one.

Hey hey, sorry haven't been around much lately - exam season

Managed 30 in the Feisar (not that ships make any difference in Zone mode!), although think I could do more.

Also managed to slightly beat my old time in the last trial - as it won't affect the table (I'll still be last) I'm hoping you'll change it, it was done on Wednesday! Time was 1.42.52 in the Icarus - a whole .27 of a second faster

[Rossco]

Not bad, not bad. Lets see what SH4R4KU has up his sleeve this time.

I can go so far then all of a sudden I start hitting walls and just bouncing off them 5 or 6 times before I manage to get it under control and by that time my health is critical. Really tricky.

31! What kills me is the bloody ding-ding-ding-ding followed soon after by dingdingdingdingdingding - sends me straight into the corners!
