What are some PC games similar to Wipeout?
BallisticNG, a literal clone of PS1 wipeout games.
If you mean general high speed futuristic racers, GRIP is in the works, it's basically, and almost literally, Rollcage 3

>GRIP is in the works, it's basically, and almost literally, Rollcage 3
Yeah, because
>Grip is a futuristic combat racer inspired by the Rollcage series. The "inspired" in that sentence is cryptic code for the fact that they can't legally call it Rollcage 3. The Kickstarter page does, however, make its many similarities clear:
>Grip is about big-wheeled future-cars that can drive on walls, like in Rollcage.
>A couple of members of the development team previously worked on Rollcage.
>One of its stretch goals is for a mode that's basically identical to Rollcage: Stage 2's Scramble.
>Even the soundtrack features a number of artists from Rollcage: Stage 2's soundtrack.
>It's as close as we're going to get to a new Rollcage game, then, and the team want $657,000 CAD to secure its development.
And damn it, they didn't get funded.

Wipeout 2097 is on PC
>>340077517
and it runs like shit. You're better off emulating the PS version
>>340076236
>BallisticNG
And it's completely free.
>>340077595
Works fine on mywindows 98 PIII system
>>340077420
>And damn it, they didn't get funded.
What you mean?
It's literally out in early access on Steam
>>340077735
does it? It suffers severe slowdown every time the shield is activated, and during the final right turn in Gare d'Europa. It's also coded framerate dependent. So if your GPU goes beyond 30fps, you're fucked. The network patch is addressing the issue somewhat, but at that point you're running dedicated hardware, dedicated patches, lots of overhead. On a modern computer it's even worse, because you need a glide server. The alternative is firing up any ol' PS emulator and it works right away, on your primary computer

>>340077857
Yeah, but the kickstarter campaign failed.

>>340078414
Right, they failed in funding but didn't want to throw in the towel, so they put it on early access to get some of that money.
>>340077728
And it sucks.
>>340078518
Yep.
Wasn't there that one Wii U game that played like Wipeout. Fast Racing Neo? What happened to it?
>>340078882
>What happened to it?
It came out and people played it?
Side note, you could emulate Fast Racing League on PC.
But you can also emulate F-Zero GX and Wipeout games on PS1+2 so I'm assuming OP isn't asking for emulators
Who /pod/ here???
>>340079567
you need a glide wrapper
>>340076236
Grip is too alpha. Something's off about the controls and camera, and the collisions are buggy.
>>340078882
It came out, has no real content. no soul, and is rather shit.

Does this run on Windows 7?
>>340081743
It's been released on steam less than a month ago, why it shouldnt run on W7?
>>340080805
Muh nigga.
>>340082919
people actually like Hi-Octane? The game got demolished by reviewers and ignored by players when it was new
>>340082847
>Ballistics
>BallisticNG
Those are two different games, anon.
>>340083089
Idk, I loved it when it came out, and I played it several years ago.
>>340083376
I only started playing it because of its ties to Magic Carpet. It's a very solid racer, although I would not compare it to wipEout, because the tracks are far more open and fuel management is pretty important
>>340083264
Right, my mistake, but yes it does run on W7, not entirely sure if you just needed to run it in compatibility mode or if tequired a specific fix.

Trackmania I guess? Some modes like Island are super fast, too.
>>340084365
I love coast for being so fucking mellow, but still challenging
>>340083838
oh this looks fuckign nice.
>>340081125
Can't do anything about it being in beta but the devs offer a DRM free version.
>>340081125
>Devs giving constant updates since it started
>Game would be completely playable and fun if they dropped of the face of the earth right now
>Fame is just a 2.0 version of a game they already made
Nitronic Rush is free and requires no outside programs to run. Go check it out.

>early access
>>340085187
yeah that dissapointed me as well. I added them to my wishlist, and i'll check up on them in like a year. I really do hope they finish them.
You can download a semi-official patched up version of Rollcage.
>>340076341
holy shit. How the fuck are you supposed to conreol that? Science hasen´t been able to give you robot reflexes by now.
>>340079567
I do. I remember how it was marketed as taking advantage of MMX™ CPU back then.
Should I play the PS1 wipeout games? I've only played the PSP entries onwards.
>>340081008
It´s a good game but it has nothing in common with wipeout, other than that it´s a racing game.
>>340085840
They have aged badly imo. Graphically impressive when upressed but they feel very slow.
>>340084891
It does but IMO the ships look really weird in motion.

Just PPSSPP WipEout Pure.
Or Pulse if you have no records to break in pure.
>>340076341
Any decent download for this? I can't find shit but dead torrents
>>340076341
That's not wipeout at all. Wipeout is about track memorization.
>>340083838
>>340084096
>didn't reach any stretchgoals
Shame, they had big plans with this game. And they seem to be working really diligently.
>>340076341
>Playing on easy.
>>340088321
A bigger shame that it's still all over the place.
They can't get the handling and physics right, same with tracks, visuals are budget level, still no multiplayer, music is shit.
I wish there was a more competent team with more money behind it.
So far BeamNG or even >>340086606 or >>340088125 look and feel better.
Literally nothing, just get over it.
>>340089845
Holy shit this looksfun.
>>340085517
Episode 1 Racer has no business being as good as it is.
That and Republic Commando are some of the very few good things coming out of the prequels.
>>340089845
Looks like an extremely poverty version of Trackmania
>>340085517
Missed this but gotta bump it.
>>340090673
Too bad Republic Commando ends as it does.
>>340076341
that actually hurt my eyes to watch
>>340076341
>1st person
Oh boy that looks like a one-way trip to vomit town

>mfw Revenge on PS2
but why
>>340092603
Was it that bad?
>that feel when wipeout was stuck on consoles and now its dead as hell
>that feel when EDF is stuck on consoles
The only two franchises that I have personally felt belong on PC but never will be.
>>340092728
>fast is gone
>tracks are shit
>no more pit management
Yes it was that bad
>they will never make a new Extreme G

Well, the team's just a fifth of what the old Wipeout team was. That, and the ridiculously tiny budget without the support from other Sony studios is going to make it tough to create a true Wipeout successor.
