Hi, not sure if this is a bug or intended to make the Bling Brigade trophy easier to get, but it seems that the Fury ships count. I just organised a race, 7 of us had the chrome skins and one guy was confused and had not even unlocked the skin yet, on the third race he used a Fury ship and we all got the trophy. Should probably be fixed as it kinda sucks for all the players who worked hard to get that trophy I guess?

WipEout Fury Dated
By Peter C [ColossalBlue], Site Editor

We’re pretty excited about the upcoming WipEout HD DLC. You might have noticed, we talk about it whenever we get a chance. Well, thanks to the wonders of Twitter and a bloke called JamboGT (not even sure if he’s on TSA) We’ve got another excuse to talk about it. Excitingly we’re getting to tell you that it has an official Sony release date. OK so for the time being it’s only on the official Hong Kong site but we really can’t imagine Hong kong getting the content and the rest of the world being denied it.

The date to mark on your calenders is July 24th 2009. Which is soon, hurrah!

@78 There is motion control in Wipeout HD, you can turn motion control on/off in the settings so you can drive/fly/hover only with the use of the motion control.

Hope it helps a bit.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing all your thoughts and ideas about design and gameplay. This is so rare nowadays, I have read all of it, and bought WipeOut HD one week ago. I love it !

One question: could you, one day, add Motion Control ? This would be awesome with a game like Wipeout …
Iam thinking about a future update, as this would need tweaking/testing I guess.

Cheers.

Hi armorvil

We love cutting edge, futuristic architecture

Natural environments are cool too but we there`s more scope to legitamising crazy shapes with man made structures.
If we tried the same thing with landscapes the tracks would start looking like they were set on an alien world.

cheers

Hi AZanshin

You`re right, the Fury’s architecture and ship designs have evolved from the original HD game which gives Fury a distinctive cutting edge aesthetic.
However, as a result of developing the designs of the original game the Fury pack we have achieved continuity with the look of HD.

Thanks
Marcus

Cheers for the answers Paul. : )

My main concern with the stat increases is that it might skew online time trials towards Fury’s craft if it means laptimes are permanently reduced using them, but knowing the Wipeout crowd, I’m sure that’ll just encourage some players to try and eke out as much performance from the original craft as they can to match them. Aesthetically speaking, I prefer the look of the Fury craft.
