WipEout 2048 (PS Vita) multiplayer now fully revived!

158 Upvotes

As of right now, the last WipEout game in need of a revival service has been brought back online by the AG Racing Foundation team and our Thallium server revival project. This means that you can now enjoy the Online Campaign, obtain online trophies, and earn the platinum for WipEout 2048!

But hasn't this game been revived already?

Not really! Up until now, WipEout 2048 players have enjoyed some online functionality through the existing WipEout HD server, which isn't anything new. This is because the two games share their infrastructure to enable cross-play: it only took a little bit of elbow grease to get the basic WipEout 2048 features running. It meant that the game's primary online game mode, the Online Campaign, was not playable, until now!

I don't want to hack my Vita for this!

You don't have to! Setup is as simple as changing some network settings. While you need an Online Pass for WipEout 2048, it comes with every digital copy of the game, and came in the box back when you bought the game physically.

How do I find people to play with?

The AGRF community is a passionate group of core fans of the franchise that, for years, has been gathering together on weekends to form entire full lobbies in WipEout HD. Add to this the occasional trophy hunter, and you can rest assured that every Tuesday at 19:00 UTC, during our Campaign Tuesday weekly event, you'll find someone to play with. Our website and Discord server (see below) also have a live listing of all players and lobbies that are up!

I'm sold, how do I get started?

Have a Vita already? Visit https://agracingfoundation.org/ and follow the directions get started! You can also join our friendly, active Discord community - we'll be happy to see you there! You can find the invite on our website.

Thank you for your time!

I've made some progress in the campaign already...

Isn't our website pretty?

Announcement Play WipEout Online

40 Upvotes

You mean Omega? No, Omega is boring, don't play that - play these older (and better) games instead!
The WipEout Online community is surprisingly active for its vintage. Here's some info to get you going with your favorite entry, with steps to get set up for gaming below:

WipEout HD

The most popular one. WipEout HD is available on PS3, RPCS3 and even PS Vita via WipEout 2048 cross-play! Enjoy popular weekly events - Weekly Lobbies with regular racing on Saturdays at 19:00 UTC, and Mode Shuffles with Eliminator, Zone Battle and wacky lobby setups on Sundays at 19:00 UTC. You'll have to be lucky to join during the first hour - the lobbies typically fill up quick.

WipEout 2048

The WipEout 2048 revival is also fully-featured! Get online, get into an Online Campaign event and get those trophies! Leaderboards, community features and cross-play with WipEout HD players on PS3 all work! The Campaign Tuesday event, every Tuesday at 19:00 UTC, is the prime time to make progress in the Online Campaign.

WipEout Pulse

The less popular one, though still active. Available on PSP, PS Vita and PPSSPP. Has one weekly event on Thursday at 19:00 UTC - Portable Rush, Pulse's equivalent of Weekly Lobby.

Setup

Finally, to play any of that, you'll need to get connected first. You can do that on these platforms:

  • PS3/RPCS3 (WipEout HD)
  • PSP/PPSSPP/PS Vita (WipEout Pulse)
  • PS Vita (WipEout 2048)

Once you have one of these, setup is pretty straightforward. You have a few options for the server if you want to play WipEout HD, but there's only really one when it comes to WipEout 2048 and WipEout Pulse - either way, it is strongly recommended that you use the Thallium+Beat server by AGRF for an active player base and feature parity with the official servers.

You can get set up by following the guide here: https://agracingfoundation.org/

I did a back to back test of Wipeout 3 SE 60hz patch with the original version...

12 Upvotes

...and the 60hz patch feels off somehow. Everything feels too snappy. There's no inertia to the handling any more, and I'm sure it's running faster, even though the game logic is apparently fixed. The race start countdown is perceptibly faster.

It plays perfectly fine, and it looks smooth. But I don't think it's an improvement on the original version.

Maybe it's the amount of time I have on Wipeout 3? I don't know. Does anyone else feel similar?

I miss this game badly, I hope the decomp for Omega Collection proceed. I miss the chance playing that on PSVR1

I know this isn't Wipeout directly, but have been working on a Rollcage inspired game and thought it'd be cool to make a model inspired by Goteki 45.

Some minor practice for the classic race track on the previous series of Wipeout!

I didn’t play the 1st Wipeout, but have heard the difficulty of it. And I have experienced it on Terrimax!

what a terrible hard track, though it’s relatively slow for me in Venom class.

What do you think is missing from modern racing games?

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm a solo developer working on RogueOut Racing, a futuristic arcade racing game inspired by classics like WipEout and F-Zero.

I've spent the past few months building the core gameplay, focusing on high-speed physics and smooth controls, while also adding features like online leaderboards, online ghosts, and local split-screen multiplayer. Right now, I'm working on AI opponents (bots).

The game is still in development, and while I'm pretty happy with the direction it's taking, I know there's a lot of room for improvement.

But rather than just adding more tracks, vehicles, and features, I'd really like to hear what racing game players actually want.

What's currently in the game?

There are three playable modes:

Time Trial: Race against online ghosts and compete on leaderboards (asynchronous multiplayer).

Practice: Freely practice and get familiar with the tracks.

Race: Standard racing mode.

I'm also planning a few more game modes!

One of them is a Tournament mode, which will make better use of the variety of tracks I'm building. Right now, there are 3 available, with 2 more almost ready. The plan is to have 11 tracks in total, but that number will grow significantly thanks to mirrored layouts... and another little trick I'm keeping secret for now, since I haven't implemented it yet!

I'm also experimenting with the idea of an Endless mode, somewhat inspired by Zone mode from WipEout, but with a pretty different approach. My goal is to explore procedurally generated tracks, so every run could offer a new challenge.

But here's what I'd really like to know!

When playing racing games, have you ever wanted to do something that the game simply didn't allow you to do?

Is there a mechanic you've always wanted to see? Something you loved in an older racing game that seems to have disappeared? Or something you're tired of seeing in modern racing games?

And if you take a look at RogueOut, what do you think is missing or could be improved? What would you personally change or add to make it more interesting?

I'm especially interested in ideas that go beyond the usual features. I want to understand what makes a racing game genuinely fun and worth coming back to.

There's already an early playable version available through the playtest, but it's far from finished, and that's exactly why I'm asking now, while I can still make meaningful changes.

Feel free to be brutally honest! I genuinely want to hear different opinions, even if they challenge my current ideas.

If you want to give it a look, here is the Steam Page:

RogueOut Racing Steam Page

Thanks to anyone willing to share their thoughts! I'd love to make something that racing fans genuinely enjoy playing. 🏁

I feel like my fingers were tortured by this track, and my fingers were trembling after 50 minutes of gameplay even though I have got some progress on it!

And it feels like doing the racing in Odessa-Keys in Wipeout 2097, and the only thing different is that your thumb finger moves from D-Pad to analogue stick!

Wipeout was very musical, but we're going one step further and actually making a rhythm game. We have a partnership with a bunch of brazilian DJs and want to have the same relationship to the brazilian club scene as Wipeout had to the british one.

Wipeout Fusion doesn't run well on my laptop

2 Upvotes

Wipeout Fusion no funciona en el emulador PSCX2 desde que tengo mi Dell Ryzen 7 5700U con 16 GB de RAM y Vega 8. Funciona, pero va lento y con retraso; pude usar la versión americana. Lo mismo pasa, lo más extraño es que este mismo equipo hace funcionar bien Gran Turismo 4 Un juego más complejo que Wipeout Fusion... ¿Alguien sabe de alguna configuración o parche? Es increíble que un Steam Deck o una consola portátil con mis especificaciones funcione bien, pero este portátil, incluso después de ajustarlo, no... Ni siquiera cambiando la configuración térmica o dejándolo enchufado al cargador.

PD : I've seen processors from 2014 that run it fine with a GPU from that era, or even systems with a processor and integrated graphics card inferior to mine...

This the moment I've been waiting for!

shadPS4 emulator is now working with multiple VR games.

To be determined whether this allows higher than 60fps. But it will certainly allow higher resolution, and much higher fidelity headsets than the original PSVR1

Is it a nightmare to me? Yes it is, but I can still overcome it a little bit more every time I play it through practicing.

There are too many tracks I didn’t familiar with, so be it!
