I'm definitely missing something here. In photo mode, how do you get rid of the navigation icons and word photo mode at the top left as well as the focal rings before taking a shot?

Enjoying both the game and photo mode otherwise.

As soon as you press the the share button they vanish. Don't hold the button down, make a single press and then triangle to save the pic.
 
2048 is a different campaign,,..... 2048 and hd/fury is not combined,.. also online it is not combined...
(it feels like 2048 is a faster game then hd/fury :odd:)

They changed the sounds for some stuff in the game,.. it sounds great!!!

i can definitely recommend this,.. i played a lot of HD/Fury on ps3,... also played the vita and psp games.

2048 feels really new for me, did not play it a lot on handheld.


Played the game for 3 hours yesterday and i thought i was just playing a hour :eek:


Looking forward to see you guys on track :gtpflag::gtpflag::gtpflag::gtpflag::cheers:

Thanks, I have my screen capture set up differently (quick share) so now I need to do a long press and hold until the PS options come up. Thanks for putting me in the right direction.

Yes this wasn't clear as I use the same method (options button>triangle) but if you press touch pad it gives a clear view of photo before hitting 'options'. The most tricky part is getting used to the new zoom/pan/rotate controls it feels almost as tricky as Infamous2Son! :ill:..After quite a few photos I am getting used to it and it is much quicker now. The best bit is the thumping music carries on in photomode and makes you take more! :gtpflag:👍
 
2048's loose handling doesn't stick well with me even on PS4.

Don't see myself playing it that much, the busy track designs also pale compared to the refined HD/Fury.

True indeed :D I also like that it defaults back to your last selected angle and shot settings.

I'm going through 2048 as I never really had the chance to play that before and I'm so glad it got included - far better controls and less finicky than the Vita.
 
Could any of you folks who are already playing check one thing for me? Is it possible to switch the 2048 HUD to the default HD HUD?

Nope, when you go to Game Options and change the HUD design to something like 2097, the only thing that changes is the HUD for HD/Fury events that aren't eliminator.

I really don't like the 2048 HUD, but oh well, at least we have a "new" Wipeout game.

I might not have shoes anymore, but losing shoes to gain a virtual adrenalin rush is a net gain imo. :lol:
 
You guys aren't helping my wallet. Didn't play much Wipeout when I was a kid but this looks so much fun.

I didn't either not for a long long time @sems4arsenal but it is very easy to get back into after a few laps..very retro arcade style with the music and voices. (I feel i should leave a 10p coin after each race by the PS4 :lol:) The soundtrack (bass heavy) is awesome as are the stunning sharp graphics (see photo thread)..I also think Mr @imported_rik19 👍 will really like this. It is quite addictive trying to get the AI back with a missile or mine! :cheers:
 
Okay so, before I divulge on first impressions, a disclaimer: I have never owned WipEout HD or 2048, so just bear that in mind when I express my excitement over a detail which probably already existed in the source material.

Overall, this is a damn fine production. No two ways about it. From the livelihood that each track exudes, right down to minor details like each team having their own unique onboard computer for their ships, and the changing colours for Zone mode, it's easy to see why Sony couldn't just let this franchise die.

The soundtrack, I can live with, despite the gimmicky DJ-esque "Go!" at the start of every event, and the developers trying their best to eviscerate whatever vocals remained in the tunes despite slipping up on some (looking at you, Chemical Brothers), it surprisingly evolves while not straying too far from the status quo.

The only things that bother me, are that the ships sound a bit too much like cars, and my beloved Icaras is locked at the start of the game. But those are hardly held in high regard, when it comes to the fact that Sony personally gave me a second chance to have a crack at their last-gen classics, which look like they haven't aged a day.
 
Liking the additional sounds for the ships as they boost over pads, slightly different for each model, I think. It may be me but I also find it a bit disturbing that the voice announcing weapon pick-ups and active threats sounds on occasion quite like the Red Queen in the film Resident Evil.
 
Can't try the game online yet, still waiting on PS Plus. Ridiculous that something like a shortage of a digital product exists.
 
Digital Foundry review on performance. Good news for those of us with PS4 Pro's.

Thanks for this, I had motion blur set to 'ON' (default). So with this now off it looks like I am getting 8.3m pixels (full 4k) at 60FPS in HDR :drool: no wonder it looks so smooth and crystal clear! (The HDR does seem to effect the colours taking photos so I switch off HDR for this photomode)

Quote below from the above article, so those with the PS4 Pro this is the game to test out with motion 'off' 👍

"Curiously though, there are actually two 4K modes available. With motion blur enabled, the Omega Collection defaults to a 2160p checkerboard presentation. However, turn off the effect and WipEout moves to a full, native 4K output. Previously, PR from Sony has indicated that a dynamic resolution framebuffer is in effect, but thus far, our measurements have yet to find anything other than a full-fat 8.3m pixel output in effect at all times."
 
If this remaster sells well enough, what are the odds of these development studios merging and creating a true canonical WipEout entry for PS4?

Hopefully not, I mean it's one thing remastering a game but I couldn't see a new studio making anything half as good as Studio Liverpool did.
 
Last time I played wipeout was on the PS3 when it was free.
Lets just say I forgot how to drive. :lol:
 
I ended up picking this up this morning, despite also getting Dirt 4 (I'm on a long vacation after today. I'll have the time :lol:). Always been a fan of Wipeout, although I haven't played one on the consoles since the original Playstation era. I did play Pure and Pulse on the PSP, but not all that much. Looking forward to playing.
 
This whole hype around WipEout actually made me take a look at my PS Store account and I've found out that, for some reason, I have WipEout HD, Fury and 2048 all available for free.

So, I'll be downloading them tonight and enjoying some sessions on the PS3.
