Getting a piranha pot in the first item box of the race should be illegal.

Or a Boomerang.

Or Triple Red Shells

Piranha Pot can't really defend your back, and can't be aimed. It just says that nobody can go past you for ten seconds.

Still a hilariously broken item. Like everything else in this series lol.

I'm not sure why I did what I did just now o.o;;

How is it broken?

 

[OG_Original Gamer]

Just discovered drifting, I had not played a Mario kart since the SNES version.

 

[polyh3dron]

Whoever hit me with the red shell in mid-air, I hate you.

 

[Jeff Vader]

That race was nuts.

I didn't notice you guys were right behind me! xD

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

whoever I red shelled over the pit on the airport, I'm sorry... but it had to be done...

 

[ChrisD]

How is it broken?

Mostly just in that it gives anyone behind you the Gandalf

Because bro

You shall not pass

Like I said though, it's this series. I love it, I hate it, it's Mario Kart. Being a pessimistic person, I just tend to end up looking at the negative side of things more, which is why it may seem I'm always complaining. :L

 

[NinjaTehFish]

STOLEN!

 

[polyh3dron]

Jeff Vader, I hope you choke on your Penne Arrabiata

 

[AkimbO_Arcana]

Fuck... posting between races is ruining it for me. All messed up from the start.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Jeff Vader, I hope you choke on your Penne Arrabiata

Hey man its not like I stayed on the track or anything!

 

[SCReuter]

I'm never tossing a bomb ahead of me again.

 

[Beaniedude]

STOLEN!

Lol. I think I blue shelled your bomb in that race.

 

[SaintMadeOfPlaster]

Anyone else think there are way too many red shells in this game? It's my biggest gripe about the game at the moment.

 

[ChrisD]

Fuck... posting between races is ruining it for me. All messed up from the start.

It's like a game, scrambling to post in-between race to race -- Purchasing Mario Kart 8 didn't give you two games, it actually gave you three!

Was making a reference to the Eddie Izzard bit your nick is from

 

[Dr Prob]

Such bullshit on Shy Guy Falls. We lapped some poor fellow (a friend of someone?) and at the very end he was mashing around, obstructing my path while eventually someone took the shroomspot and won. Earlier he dropped down out of nowhere like fucking Batman on Rainbow Road when I was pretty much alone in the lead and scared the hell out of me.

Filing a protest. Hopefully he'll be fined accordingly.

Oh, don't worry. It was a genuine question.
I never felt it was broken in any way. It's like comparing it with triple red shells. You can pass a person with those items under your own risk. It may sound OP because it gives you small boosts while attacking other racers but the damage is so minimal I really never paid attention lol.

[polyh3dron]

Well that was a clusterfuck towards the end there.

 

[Jeff Vader]

Lag management. The shell hit you normally on the other guy's screen.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Comm error

 

[505zoom]

"Mature Watching"

Lots of swearing on this channel/game.

Comm error

Same.

 

[LegendOfFalcon]

Comm error

Yep, I got the error too.

 

[Burning Justice]

Ugh. Communication error in the middle of the race. I had just taken first, too.

Well, I think I'll get off now then. Good races, all!

 

[SCReuter]

Nnnnooooo! I was trailing B. Justice!

 

[polyh3dron]

Love that feeling when you do a perfect race.. I left y'all in the DUST.

 

[Jeff Vader]

I sure hope that guy voted before leaving >.>

 

[NinjaTehFish]

Threw an awesome bomb then got pirahna'd then drove off course then comm. error :/ fml

 

[BizzyBum]

I had a green shell behind me, though!

 

[SCReuter]

Lame! Lame! Lame! I was in total zen mode right there then a bunch of shells had to screw it up just before the finish line!

 

[Jeff Vader]

Thank you whoever threw that blue shell :3

And with that i'm outs. Good races guys.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Lame! Lame! Lame! I was in total zen mode right there then a bunch of shells had to screw it up just before the finish line!

Thanks for hitting me while gliding.

 

[SCReuter]

Thanks for hitting me while gliding.

Whoops. >_>

 

[SCReuter]

Hang in there, Henry. Hang in there.

 

[The Xtortionist]

Are games hosted P2P? Was dominating a lobby on the final lap when I got an ingame communication error. Thought the host might have ragequit.


Went from 1300VR to like 1700 in one sitting. Pub matches are easy as fuck.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Yoshi is dead to me because of this match.

 

[NinjaTehFish]

WTH hell my thumb stick died :/..... Its ok now wierd.

 

[Eduardboon]

So in this race with wasd I fell off the course once and only got single mushrooms. Crap.

 

[HypnoDarkrai]

Didn't get shrunk by the first Lightning.

 

[SCReuter]

I <3 this game.

 

[SCReuter]

Hypno's green shell off the wall wrecked me in the 2nd lap. At least I think it was Hypno.
