It's actually better than I thought it would be. How did they get a 500GB game looking and running like that?
Really fun and challenging.
500 gigs?
Damn dude

>500GB
The fuck?
>>319740347
Is it good enough to replace F-Zero?
It actually looks like a shit PC game on steam that people would lose interest in in about a month. Since its all you have on Wii u you puss pods eat it up like its ice cream soup.

500MB I meant.
Whoops.

I knew these next gen installs were getting pretty hefty, but hot dog boy-o.

Yeah mate I'll count the number of WipeOut and F-Zero games on PC, will I?
Fucking hell just imagine a 500GB game.
I'm only partway through the Supersonic speed class and the AI is kicking my ass, fuck the Titanium Cup's first starting track
How do I git gud at cornering? Turning and sliding feel different compared to Wipeout and F-Zero. Does vehicle weight have more to it than just vehicle handling?

There's at least one Wipeout game on PC and the early access Formula Fusion is made by the same devs
Slipstream GX is a free Wipeout clone/fangame with no specified release date
>>319740550
Nah. But it's alright as its own thing
>>319741230
>Slipstream GX
Add BallisticNG to that list, I'm personally more interested in that one but I think it's the same guy doing the handling for both games now. Slipstream looked pretty crude before but I guess he's fixing it up now

It's better than GX, that's for sure.
People will shitpost about it, but for a $15 game the value is fucking there.

Yeah, wasn't Wipeout HD like twenty bucks when it came out too? Where have these arcade games gone? They don't cost much to make. Why haven't we gotten a new SSX after 2012, they already have the new engine they worked on so they'd just need to make some new tracks and characters
>>319740550
Not really a subsititute for F-Zero entirely, but I think it's solid for what it is, a relatively cheap eShop title. Though there are a lack of some features like a free play mode, even in multiplayer you can only do cups of four and not individual tracks of your choosing. The framerate in 3-4 player splitscreen is erratic as well but otherwise with two people it's usually fine.
Hero mode makes the game more F-Zero like (crash = death, boost meter = health), it's on the fastest speed level, and also mirrors all the tracks while you must finish first or bust, but I'm not sure if you can play with it on in multiplayer mode.
The HUD is also just tiny as shit text, too. Like come on, add a proper odometer or something, it wouldn't be that obtrusive. Otherwise the game is alright.
I also hope you like the same typeface that was used in TimeSplitters 2 and Halo, you'll be seeing it a lot.

I haven't heard anything new about Slipstream GX in a while either, so that's got me a bit worried. I thought the demo wasn't overly bad in presentation value minus the character portraits.
Going by the movement of the camera is BallisticNG more like classic Wipeout? Slipstream kinda feels more akin to Pulse and onward.
>>319742237
Yeah I believe Ballistic is trying to replicate the PS1 games, it started as a remake project or something. Will probably take a while if it's just one game cranking out tracks and such
>>319742439
Well I hope both projects end up getting finished, if they get online capabilities it might be fun to play with /v/ or something.
