History VideoGame / BallisticNG

* CherryTapping: Ramming into walls or other opponents can take you out of the race if [[CriticalExistenceFailure you're low on shield.]]

* MythologyGag / TheCameo : A very meta example; Cassandra is originally a track made for ''[[https://www.facebook.com/SlipStreamGX/ Slipstream GX]]'', another ''Wipeout'' fan-game that's is currently in development hiatus (as of April 2017). Some of its developers continue to work on ''Ballistic NG'' during said downtime.

** Also, you can even download a mod that adds the soundpack including the announcer from ''WipEout Fusion''.

* LightningBruiser: The Barracuda-class ships AKA Drag ships. Unlike the said ship, they have the best handling, firepower, durability and speed. [[AwesomeButImpractical Sadly, they're very difficulty to ride.]]

** Toxic (equivalent to Vector)

** Zen (equivalent to Phantom)

* DifficultyLevels: Outside of AI difficulty you can set, the game also separates races into several speed classes:
** Toxic
** Apex
** Halberd
** Spectre
** Zen

** Several teams are similar to the ones from ''WipEout'' series such as Omnicom (Auricom), Diavolt (Qirex), Wyvern (Icaras), Nexus (Feisar), Caliburn (Piranha/Pir-hana) Hyperion (EG-X), Scorpio (Goteki 45) and Tenrai (Van-Uber).
* GameMod: One of the Neognosis' goals is to allow this. As of January 2017, this feature is under development.

* {{Expy}}: The Barracuda is this to the Pir-hana Prototype from VideoGame/WipEout 2048. Best speed, durability and handling in the game, but no weapons.

** The Steam Workshop of this game allows players to add custom tracks and ships, including AG crafts ported from VideoGame/Wipeout, or [[ComicallyMissingThePoint things]] like [[ForWantOfANail real world cars]]...

* BloodSport: Wouldn't be a ''Wipeout'' homage without it.
