― THE CHOMPING DUCK GETS HIS FATTY OUT FOR VADAR (HI DERE), Thursday, 30 September 2010 13:49 (thirteen years ago) link
Am I missing it or is there no way to set the total lap number in Racebox? I want 20 laps so I can hear these 10 minute instrumentals right through. I'm having a night off this as I was running through the tracks in my head last night instead of getting to sleep. All Gold in the first two events on Skilled level - not going to attempt Elite until I unlock everything.
My only big complaint is that it's such an unfair game the way it can fuck you on the last corner but I even forgive that as it works both ways and I occasionally steal an otherwise bad race with a good last lap and some lucky weapon usage.
I've still got the original Wipeout. I should dig it out to find out if it was easier or if my old man gaming reactions are letting me down on HD.

This skilled/elite thing isn't anywhere near as much of a factor as the speed class of the ships. Can get Gold on Elite at all the Venom class races but when it gets up to Flash/Rapier I'm bouncing off the walls and need the noob bumper bars (pilot assist) on.
Online could be so good if anyone played it :(

i really played this all at ELITE level? no wonder it was so fuckin hard

I think it originally shipped with Skilled and Elite then they added Novice for teh noobs.
Zone races are so hypnotic, I just fucking love them. You get into an amazing groove for a while then the speed cranks up and you're jolted out of it by hammering into a wall at 1000km/h.

Beginning to think on some of these races that "Elite" difficulty = "Lose no matter what" - I finish a race 3rd in 2.28 with the winner on 2.23, then I eventually get down to 2.22 and the winner finishes in 2.19 then a million races later I get to 2.19 and the winner is on 2.14 wtf - oh and last place is 2.22 - faster than the winner in the first race.
I think I'm about doe with this, it looks and plays so well but they're just taking the piss with the AI.

Zone Mode and time trials are so amazing when you get in the groove with the right music. Might see if I can still play this.

Weird that this thread didn't get a revive when the PSVR version came out, it's INCREDIBLE.

literally the worst thing about this pandemic is not being able to go round yours to play it.
