Here are some tips and tricks for Wipeout HD. Use these tips to collect all the trophy's and win some races! These are a collection of Wipeout HD tips and tricks from various sites.
RACE START SPEED BOOST:
- To get a boost at the beginning of the race. Do not hit or press the acceleration button at all. (not even once) until the start countdown is at "0" (when the announcer says "GO!")
SPEED TIPS:
- Accelleration button ("X" by default) is pressure sensitive so set it to 10% sensitivity. This way, the buttons behave (almost) digitally, so you won't need to press much at all for full accelleration.
- when you have a boost available to you're ship, time its use with the boost pads (especially double boost pads) for extra acceleration
- On speed lap events, if you save your boost till just before you cross the start/finish live you get a nice boost just as you start your next lap.
- When you use Pilot Assist, it caps your speed at 90%. So don't use it.
- Barrel rolls help A LOT. They provide a speed boost upon landing so use them and master them.
TURNING TIPS:
- Try setting air brake to 10% sensitivity. This way, the buttons behave (almost) digitally, so you don't have to press them very hard to get the full effect. Also try 70% if you like the pressure sensitive aspect.
- Most turns don't require the use of air brakes, learn the right lines to take into corners
SHIPS BREAKDOWN:*
*Found via NEOGAF
GENERAL TIPS:
- Use the rear view when you can, if there are a number of ships directly behind you be prepared to use shields if you have them available.
- If your low on energy ABSORB pickups and add energy to your shield
WEAPONS:
- Use the weapons and use them smartly (duh!)
