When you fly over a weapon grid (these look like colored crosses on the track), a random weapon or power-up will be activated and the relevant icon appears on the top of the screen. You may press to use the weapon/power-up, or to discard it. A spoken voice will warn you of weapons about to be used against your ship.
Normal Weapons and Power-ups[edit]
Super Weapons[edit]
Super Weapons are team-specific weapons that have the ability to do massive amounts of damage.
Name and Team | Image | Description |
---|---|---|
Mini Gun (Feisar) |
A rapid fire gun which can fire continuously until its ammo supply is exhausted. One hit causes around half the enemy's shield to deplete. One hit with Cyclone enabled normally eliminates the enemy. | |
Shield Raider (AG Systems) |
The Shield Raider targeting system will lock onto enemy craft. It removes all shield from the craft - a single impact will then destroy it completely. A missile of pure shield energy will then impact your craft, giving you an instance shield energy recharge. | |
Energy Sphere (Auricom) |
Energy Spheres fire in a straight line, damaging every enemy craft they pass through. They need to be charged up before they reach full power - this is done by holding down until the Energy Sphere in front of your craft begins to glow. Fire the weapon by releasing . The weapon can be fired before full power is reached, but it will inflict less damage. | |
Power Snare (Qirex) |
This weapon fires from the front of the craft and shoots a long way down the track. It then creates an energy wall which inflicts major damage to any craft flying through it. The craft that fired it will be unharmed if it passes through the Power Snare. | |
Stealth (Piranha II) |
Once activated, nothing will be able to touch your craft. It can fly through other craft and is fully protected from all other weapons which won't even be able to engage a lock on the ship. The activated Stealth is subject to a time limit. |
Cyclone[edit]
Cyclone increases the weapon power of all of your ship's weapons. When activated, the weapon icon on the top of the screen will flash. Cyclone is unlockable by completing all six of the Weapon challenges, and it can be enabled/disabled through the Options menu.
