Am I the only one having more fun in the Venom and Flash classes? Lol
I think for ME the other classes feels to fast to really enjoy the game and racing
I always crashes into the sides etc when it goes to fast lol.

The one lap sprints are also a truly insane proposition.

We really really need for the top players to post vids of their best times. Their control skills are amazing, and we couild learn better if we see their crazy times (like that 1.31 tt on sebenco climb by feisar_2097).
And I miss barrel rolls like I'm fucking thumbless all of a sudden, argh!! Never have I cursed myself like this.

Given another chance
Did what needed to be done. Bought the game to hopefully contribute to the future development of this fantastic racer.
Can only imagine what Evoluton could have done with this franchise.

Playing Wipeout HD's mode reminds me that they should have included the reverse tracks into the main campaign to increase its variety. As it stands, while playing them in Racebox mode serves a functional purpose increasing loyalty points, you barely see them otherwise (a few reversals come in at the tail end of Fury's campaign though).
A shame because Sebenco and Moa Therma in reverse are better than their forward versions.
Also: what's that art book posted earlier up the thread? Want.

Okay what is that book?
Managed to elite pass almost everything first time in 2048 using just Feisar Speed (and then Piranha speed when that unlocks in the 2050 campaign). I struggled much more with this on Vita, the 60fps and crisp detail really helps. I thought I was shit-to-OK at Wipeout but I've played a few online matches and done really well, so I'm a happy dude. Struggling to elite pass some of the zone challenges though, the requirement on Vita was far less but almost everything's been bumped up to 60.
HD/Fury is a completely different beast, feels really slow in comparison. People who are new to 2048 - it takes time to get used to it, but it feels much better than HD/Fury when you do. I remember being completely shit at it at first on the Vita, I don't even remember getting better but I'm finding the majority of the elite passes super easy. I've beaten the elite pass in a couple of time trials by some 10-20 seconds. If I can do it, anyone can.

There are a lot of videos from PS3 version, it's basically the same thing. On Sebenco Climb you can do a barrel roll (or two) after literally every corner, there are between 7 or 10 places where you can do it depending on the speed class.

yep, like 99% of racing games for hardish AI even if you're driving really well it takes at least a lap and a half to get in 1st place. I can race my ass off and still only get 5th place.

least favorite track for me in HD/Fury so far although Chengou Project is a runner up I think
Sebenco is amazing once you master it, it's one of my favourites next to Ubermall. Sol 2 is a bitch tho.

How is this for someone who didn't play 2048?
I don't really want to rebuy the game just for Fury/HD but am totally excited to experience the 2048 since it will be new to me
How many tracks, modes, etc. are actually new in 2048?

Unfortunately it's not a whole book on wipEout, just those few pages - http://www.gamepaused.net/books/everydayisplay/

2048 was an entirely new game, with new tracks and new ships, including a variant ship system that is new to the series. If you haven't played it yet, it's certainly the best way to do so and the Collection is worth it for this game alone, IMO.
2048 is the best of the 3 imo, and it looks much better in native 4k/hdr than the other 2

I don't like it but I have a new found appreciation for it. Really hated it back when HD launched. It looks lovely in 4K though!
If the game was just a remake of 2048 on its own for $40 it would still be worth it.
I believe there's 10 tracks, and they feel quite different from the HD Fury ones, both in terms of aesthetics (they're on the ground in a city before the racing series transitioned into futuristic settings about 50 years later) and in terms of track design, being a bit more technical with far more shortcuts.
Whether you prefer the simplicity of the original tracks or the new tracks will come down to taste and the mood you're in, but having all the different tracks in one place is awesome.
Huh, I think the HD / Fury tracks look better. They look crisper and sharper, and the boost pads actually stand out like they're supposed to. They also each have a more clear visual identity imo. To me lot of the new york city stuff looks both a bit samey as well as more graphically simple than the abstract futuristic stuff in HD Fury. I feel like 2048 shows up the limitations of the lighting system more than HD Fury. I do love the stretches of green transparent track in 2048, though. Those look fantastic.

I'm actually really surprised there hasn't been a dedicated WipEout artbook. Between all the concept art, tDR art, and all the lore and stuff people have managed to scrape together, I think it'd make for an awesome book.

Finished the main 3 campaigns of 2048. Gold baby!
The zone gold requirements were pretty insane. One of them was straight up to get to Zone 75 so no idea why the zone trophy in this game isn't Zone Zeus since you have to hit 75 anyway. I'd say its the most challenging singleplayer stuff in a wipeout game minus the awkward Detonator/Zone Battle Fury nonsense which I dread playing later.
Was in your exact position. I absolutely adored my time with 2048. You will really be challenged to get gold in the events. The campaign is much less repetitive than HD/Fury. It throws a lot of variety at you and doesn't make you play the same courses in Reverse. It really is a brand new wipeout game. Only one track has anything in common with HD (Sol) and its completely different from the Sol track in that game.
That being said, just be prepared that the track design is different. Levels are more dense and you are expected to learn and take shortcuts in every track. Also the combat mode can be a little annoying because its point-based, not based on your rank relative to other ships (in other words if you have the points you can get gold and still be like 5th place lol). This is a problem because the timer is very stringent in those modes.
The Stadium level in 2048 has a hairpin too. And its funny cuz its immediately followed by 2 90 degree turns. RIP ship health.

2048 is much nicer aesthetically but having the ship energy be in the top center of the screen in HD makes it much easier to see imo. I'm zooming at mach 1, I don't have time to look over to the left of the screen
I'm the exact opposite. I just can't afford to look to the bottom left to see my energy so I'm screwed with that one. I find HD Fury's to be perfect by comparison.

Wipeout HD Fury - The Basics by HellfireWZ
New pilots starting out, or retired veterans looking for a refresh, this tutorial might be handy.
I can't help but like snow levels, but it's a lot browner in HD.

what time!?
Comes down to tastes I guess, to me Sol is one of the easier tracks in 2048.

Its definitely the easiest when it comes to zone mode.
I use the 3 HUD. It unlocks after getting 10,000 loyalty points with one team. 2097 unlocks after 6,000.
Like you say, the health number is basically impossible to make out with the default HUD for HD.

is there any reason to ever pitch upward
also this sprint in 2050 campaign is kicking my ass, it's the 6th event I think?

If you boost up a track undulation and pitch up, you get more air time so you can barrel roll.

thanks
also oh wow the alternative skins for HD/fury are for the crappy original ships that have no point in using
hope they patch the game to make all HD/Fury ships of the same team have the same stats, silly how it is right now
