This game looks really good.. what am i missing?
Being a good game isn't enough to get daily active users anymore
Nowadays it's all about having esports

that's just the way it is
never said I liked it
>>380855916
Its not toaster friendly and has a steep learning curve.
>>380855916
Still more active players than battleborn
Because the original is always better

>>380855916
Futuristic racers are really niche.
Redout is amazing and they're still supporting it with some free updates and as of late they released two 5-track DLCs.
Despite having online multiplayer, the game has an ok AI. Not amazing but it does the job and it's fine to play it singleplayer. You can also play it splitscreen. Also there's the leaderboards to compete indirectly.
If you're into Wipeout or F-Zero or fucking Podracing or whatever, you should definetly buy it.
>>380855916
It's actually fun and not repetitive. Aka, not eSports material
>>380856484
sounds good anon
Help, I can't stop listening.

>>380856889
Have fun.
>>380855916
I'd say probably because the game has almost no exposure whatsoever. I legit only stumbled upon it when it released because I make a habit out of browsing the new game list on steam regularly.
>>380856435
Yes it is.
>>380855916
>>380857474
just found out about it from this thread
along with distance this is comfy
>>380856892
soundtrack in this game is really good
>>380855916
if a PC game doesn't have a popular Twitch Streamer streaming it, it won't sell no matter how good it is.
I love the game, but usually am too mellow/drunk/sleepy to finish the last few career events. Haven't had this much fun racing since Split Second
>>380857278
redout or grip?
>>380855916
Seems bit expensive and not a very popular genre. Will probably see some more users once the sales hit.
>>380855916
>/v/ talking about shitty impostor of Wipeout, not even mentioning a TRUE succesor of Wipeout
You dont even try, dont you /v/?
I like the lore of this game.
I like the idea of old, busted Earth mostly being a themepark for racing events and human society is advanced and decadent enough to build racing tracks in orbit around Neptune and below the surface of Europa.
Because WipEout just came out.
>>380858747
>muh impostor
anon...
why bother? i dont have a ps4 but I doubt omega collection is $60
>>380858681
I haven't played Grip because it hasn't released yet :^)

fixed
>>380856072
it's a racing game though it's literally "e-sport"
>>380855916
any pc multiplayer game thats not dotas or valveshit or blizzard shit is dead in the water after a week sorry but most pc boys are plebs
>>380855916
Does this game supports joystick? Thinking about grabbing it during summer sale
>>380862141
it supports gamepad
>>380859664
I still don't understand why the devs changed the progression of the stage themes. I distinctly remember that song playing exactly how it sounds in your post and in the OST, but nowadays you're lucky to even hear the guitar part in a race.
well let's see
music seems similar to wipeout (which is a plus)
someone else mentioned is it's difficult (steep learning curve) which should be a plus
so im gonna assume the reason no one plays it is because now one even knows it exists
i can tell you right now this is the first time i;ve heard about it
>>380862318
game pads suck though
>>380862141
>Does this game supports joystick?
I don't think it does.
Just gamepad or keyboard. Would be awkward to do with a joystick anyway because you need to strafe. You'd need freaking pedals for that or something.
Although now that I'm thinking about it, that might be a fun input method.
Then play in first person and VR (which the game actually does support).
It should catch on once it gets on consoles. Switch gets it in July and PS4/XB1 get it in August.
>>380862784
>>380862876
I wonder if the console versions include the DLC.
Because I suspect a lot of the work they're putting i
>>380862992
yes it does. they're charging $40.
>>380862992
>Because I suspect a lot of the work they're putting i
n currently is just because of the console release in a few months.
>>380855916
Owners: 82,227 ± 8,347
could be worse
I hope they expand the splitscreen to 4 players by the time it comes out on consoles.
>>380863082
>>380863151
i don't think consoles could handle it without frame drops.
>>380862784
>strafing
I own logitech extreme 3d which has twist-able stick, that can actually be used for strafing
And yes, I think a joystick is more fitting for hover racing, I just haven't gotten a chance to try it. If it supports gamepad I may be able to emulate with my joystick
>>380863064
Seems about right.
>>380863430
>twisting the stick to strafe
Not sure how well that would work. You need to strafe in different directions multiple times during a single turn usually.
Oh well, I wish you
>>380855916
Do you really need multiplayer for such a game? Just scoring high scores should be enough to have fun. You barely interact in racing games so I don't get why people want multiplayer.
>>380863430
>>380863654
>Oh well, I wish you
luck with that emulation.
>>380858681
Grip, but I'm biased because I always enjoyed Rollcage more than Wipeout.
Still play this every now and then. This DLC looks pretty decent; Any anons recommend?
Also old Europa music was better.
Anyone else using classic stick layout like a complete barbarian?
>>380864152
I tried to at first because I was used to F-Zero GX but the original controls are more intuitive for Redout. I tried customizing GX's controls to be like Redout and it's actually an improvement.
>>380864119
>Also old Europa music was better.
Well it's still in, not replaced.
>This DLC looks pretty decent
VERTEX is ok. I like the music and the visuals are good, but the tracks are a bit run-off-the mill for my tastes. There's some tricky turns, but ultimately it brings little new to the table.
I fucking love Neptune DLC, though. The track design around the Zero G jumps is pretty unique.
>>380855916
>This game looks really good..
it is
>what am i missing?
a good game, go play it
It will inevitably get some more exposure when it gets ported from PC
>>380865861
i disagree. Switchfags will complain about it being twice as expensive as Fast Racing RMX and Sonygros will keep playing Wipeout Omega Collection because you get a greater value for your money.
I fucking love this game, too bad the multiplayer died 1 week after the release and the only ones hosting are leaderboardfags that spends 15h a day on the game cutting corners and spinning you around.
That said it's probably the best indie game I've ever played.
>>380867092
i know right? i've put nearly 100 hours into the game and i still get my ass handed to me by these people.
>>380855916
You're on pc people only play shooters. Any other genre is fated to die
>>380858681
Redout is the better game IMO
>>380856435
>>380857596
Get your comparisons in check.
>>380868923
Shame there weren't that many podracing games.
>>380855916
It's a hard game in a niche genre
I got it free with my gpu and I got a good 8 hours from it before I hit a difficulty wall I didn't care to git gud over
>>380855916
it just didnt have the marketing. the only media i saw of it was total biscuit
>>380856072
shut up
>>380871598
what do you expect from an indie game that wasn't crowdfunded? marketing is expensive as fuck and they put all their funds into polishing the game.
>>380871764
they need to be better businessmen. It got fez on the 360, rocket league on top of twitch, and made ori 2. its not impossible to make a succusful, but ill admit that it requires luck.
If anyone wants to show me some significant marketing of redout, id be happy to be proven wrong
>>380856892
0:42 sounds like the Megaman X boss battle bgm
How am I supposed to take sharp turns in this game without crashing horribly?
I feel like my strats from F-Zero/Wipeout aren't working.
>>380873424
there are turning guides in the community page.
git gud.
>>380873424
perform the forbidden techniqueuse the brake
>>380855916
It didn't have enough marketing to compete with WipEout, but then again by the time Redout was released there wasn't any announcement of a new WipEout installment.
>>380855916
None stupid trendy youtuber endorsed it.
It is really good. The niche for classic AG racers is getting smaller, and the game has been out for awhile.
>>380857596
fzero fags are like the quakefags of futuristic racers; only a handful of them exist, and nobody else cares about their shit game.
anyone else played this?
it wasfun
>>380877510
what is this?
>>380855916
It's shitty.
I bought it expecting wipeout but didn't get it, I'm not even really sure why but I've barely played it.
>>380857596
None of the SNES racing games are good. Mode 7 for tracks is trash, no one with any sort of mental stability wants to drive around on a piece of paper with an inked in track.
>>380878370
it wasn't meant to be a wipeout clone. play ballistic ng or formula fusion if you want that.
I bought this game when It came out and enjoyed it, but feel completely jipped when indie devs for games like killing floor 2 are pushing out free content (although not as fast as I'd like them too) meanwhile the redout devs recently started charging for maps which is pretty fucked up considering the game is lacking in content as it is for the fucking price they're asking for.
That was the only time I paid full price for a game and I fucking regret it.
>>380878370
They had very different mechanics.
>>380879456
I don't blame them for doing it. It must've been expensive to produce, especially since they did VR and are porting it to all consoles on top of that. Plus the game isn't making them a lot of money.
>>380855916
this is the only game in vr to give me motion sickness.
i can only play for an hour tops before i become violently ill.
>>380879796
well they shouldn't had done the VR thing, it runs and looks like garbage anyway.
A game that pushes free content is more interesting to players than a dead game that nobody plays anymore and costs 35 dollars + dlc packs.
I wish I had this on the switch, but without analog controls I can't see it being good.
>>380879749
>700km/h
LMFAO
>>380880057
VR is a new concept, especially for a genre like this. There is still time to update and improve it.
>>380880057
you clearly don't know anything about the game business if you think every developer can just give their stuff away.
>>380880756
Over 700, nearly 800. What about it?
>>380881624
Redout and F-Zero GX can hit over 2000.
>>380881714
Too bad you get no sense you're moving at that speed.
>>380855916
Because if I wanted to play a perfect futuristic racer I would just play F-Zero GX instead.
>>380881876
prove it, faggot.
>>380856435
>Wipeoutfags
They're almost as bad as CTRfags. Literally the bronies of racing games
>>380881714
Wipeout's Zone mode can reach over at least Mach 10 if you're good enough, which is roughly 12250 kp/h.

The real WipeOut, hat just came out?
Why would I play the clone instead?
>>380882079
how about in an actual race faggot?
>>380882035
It's only natural to be smug when you like the best games.
Is there anyway to get this to run on a toaster? It looks fun as fuck and I wanna try it but my pc is turbo shit
>>380882293
hahahahaha
>>380860432
this man knows
>>380882308
They're delusional, so of course they're smug.
>>380882271
when are they going to add her to rev2?
>>380882416
not an argument.
>>380882565
The initial argument was "which one is faster". You didn't specify anything more than that and you got effectively beaten. Don't try to escape, boy.
>>380881552
Well I do know one thing for sure and that is I will never buy another game from this company again and ill definitely not recommend others to buy their games.
>>380858747
dude no need to split the community, AG needs to grow now, also FF only recently became decent after the post release patches and before that redout was way better
>>380882712
i'm not moving the goal post at all. i was responding to this. it mentioned the top speed in RACES.
>>380879749
>>380879456
>>380880057
the game released with 20 tracks for 35$ plus 10% discount on release week
5 tracks were added for free
10 tracks can be bought for 13$
for comparison, the wipeout omega collection which is a remaster costs also like 35$ and has 26 tracks in it but they are all from from wipeout hd/fury and 2048, nothing new
>>380882540
WipEout and CTR are the best games in their respective subgenres though.
>>380882553
Don't know. As much as I like balls, I like yoyo's even more.probably by mid-2018 at best, considering they are developing DBZ now
>>380882829
Futuristic racing games peaked at GX, and CTR was passed up a while ago. Its only redeeming feature is its drift systrm, and even MKDS managed something similar wiyh snaking.
>>380882769
Nice job not reading the post's explanation on WipEout's speed:skill relation and tried to sound witty mentioning the speed in a meme arrow. Given your simplistic response, you probably never played it, neither have you played a racer that actually demands brain cells to reward you with speed in your life.
tfw redout discord fags in here defending the game
>>380883117
>futuristic racing games peaked at GX
Yeah, that's why nobody but a small portion of /v/ remembers it right? Oh wait.
There's more people out there who remember X. Don't kid yourself.
Also, any MK after 64 is filler trash.
>>380866251
I'm a switchfag and I'll get it again just to be able to play it on the go.
>>380883152
Wipeout's top speed is >700km/h in races. What part of that don't you understand?
>>380883265
not an argument
>>380883580
Yes, and? If the question is speed, WipEout attains the fastest limit, if the question is in races, it attains the highest minimum skill level needed to be fast. Point is it's not a brainless "hold X to fast" game.
>>380882271
>Why would I play the clone instead?
because i don't need sony's paperweight
>>380883152
no amount of skill changes the game's max speed.
>press pause

Glad I got it as a gift. I suck at racing games but I guess it's kinda fun.
>>380883318
Mario Mart 64 is the weakest out of the bunch. Weaker than the original.
>>380883961
Barrel roll turbos every 2 seconds sure do.

who cares about Wipeout, it's held hostage on Sony's shitbox
>>380855916
It looks fun but it's really not.
Also the music isn't very good.
>>380884324
WipEout pretty much propelled Sony's consoles up and put competitors to shame with its technological achievements alone at the start of every gen. The franchise was always a console seller since the PS1. Anyone with a brain cares.
>>380884624

Who the fuck funded these devs.
>>380884843
fuck off Sony shill
>>380884983
Thanks for conceding.
So the verdict is that redout had potential but the devs got greedy and the game fucking sucks now.
Wipeout continues to be the best.
>>380885387
Pretty much.
>>380883869
play F-Zero GX before baiting so hard next time.
>>380884624
>Also the music isn't very good.
>>380885586
its really not.
>>380885665
it really is
what now faggatron?
>>380886265
then go enjoy your cheap ass stupid boring ass game with shit music then.
Why do anti grav fags stir up shit every time their games are mentioned? Wipeout and F Zero control completely different anyway. You should just be grateful that such a niche genre has franchises so good that nobody can agree on which one is superior.
>>380886548
Soneiggher everyone.
Go infest another thread
>>380886781
I agree. Which is kind of interesting because that means there is a different design concept on how futuristic racing would be. There is even X-treme G and that was grounded, none-the-less the different methods of how the vehicles worked.
>>380855916
it's just not as well known as it should be
>>380887756
There's a lot of stuff from the old AG racers that I loved but doubt will ever be seen again, like in F-Zero X just having an entire city in the background of Mute City made the track feel huge to me. Even though it was a limitation it always made everything feel colossal when it was just the track and the skybox.
I also really liked the dark dystopian industrial look of the first Wipeout, especially Altima and Silverstream but I'll probably never see it again in a racing game. Same with the really dark indoors tracks in Wipeout 2097.
Found some random stream on twitch, this game looks fucking awesome.
twitch tv brionac95
Terrible accent, great gameplay, I freaking love the soundtrack.
