Sigh... Got a false hit on Exentryk, then hit his banana. Hate it when that happens.

Yeah, some weird shit was going on there. Hit with a red through triple bananas.

Also, Merrick's luck right now is insane!

GGs Merrick, Rez!

 

[Burning Justice]

Hate those stairs!

 

[Burning Justice]

Got too focused on hitting you at the beginning, and completely lost control.

 

[Exentryk]

I had to go for that big blue sc. But it didn't work. I went through those rings. Guess that's not part of the plan lol.

Haha, nope.

I screwed it up too, but because I veered too far to the left.

 

[Exentryk]

Hmm, still have to practice it. Also, I suck at Animal Crossing track.

EDIT - You want to go WW? Or you leaving soon?

Sure, we can go WW.

 

[Exentryk]

Okay, follow me in! Unless you already joined a WW?

EDIT - Hah, that shock got me my deserved win.

 

[Burning Justice]

That lightning >.>

 

[Exentryk]

Lol, picking toad's turnpike in 200cc might be okay.

EDIT - Having some nice clean runs here. No blue shells, no nothing. Good ;]

EDIT - And Animal Crossing track gets selected just as I say that -.-

 

[Burning Justice]

It had to pick Baby Park...

 

[Burning Justice]

Last one.

 

[Exentryk]

Got 1st just in time to take the blue shell. Great!

EDIT - Threw my 2nd red in the wall. GGs >_>

 

[Burning Justice]

GGs Exentryk!

Will probably try that combo again. Liked it a lot, but the competition in that room wasn't really good enough to test it.

 

[Rezbit]

Man, is general global at 100 or 150? It feels so slow after 200.

 

[Burning Justice]

Man, is general global at 100 or 150? It feels so slow after 200.

If the room's average VR is less than 3000, it's 100cc. If it's higher, it's 150cc.

You can do 200cc custom Worldwide races if you want, though.

 

[GasProblem]

Just go to Global > Custom and choose 200cc races

That'll do it. Was just playing 100cc then haha. Custom it is.

 

[Exentryk]

You could follow me in from your recent player list. I'm in a 200cc WW right now.

Cool, will give it a whirl! EDIT: 10th in every race....might be out of my league haha.

 

[Exentryk]

I guess if you just searched a custom 200cc, it might pair you up with people around your VR. Then you can slowly build the experience. Feel free to drop out.

Can't wait until this final is over and I can play lots of Mario Kart 8 this weekend.

I'm going to learn how to bike in 200cc! Woot! Sport bike's the way to go right? Since the way they killed accel tiers means that 0.75 more accel will always be significant in 200cc so I can't really figure out any scenario in which giving up 0.75 accel is worth the Master Cycle's relatively minor benefits.

I think I'll join you so we can suffer together lol

 

[ffdgh]

Always good to have some more bike love. Dat learning curve tho...

Wait, what do you mean they killed acceleration tiers?

I'm just reading up on that stuff again and thought that acceleration is always rounded down to the next integer.
Other stats aren't tiered, correct?

I honestly don't get how come I love bikes (really, just the Sport Bike) so much when I hated them to the point of not playing them on principle in MKWii.

Spoiler

The balancing in that game just felt cheap as fuck and I didn't have a full appreciation of things that make competitive metas back then. Plus most bikes in that game was ugly as FUCK

 

[Enforced]

I'm thinking if I should make another picture like i did on the family picture but different. Im not sure.
I will play with you guys tonight. My class is cancel for tomorrow. Yay

For 200cc only, every bit of acceleration has an effect now unlike in 150cc. The tiers are still there, but everything inbwetween them works like they should have originally.

Interesting, thanks!
And for the other stats the values in between count regardless of cc class?

 

[PreyingShark]

AFAIK the other stats work as you would expect, yes.

And hooray for a comrade in bike misery!

Second final done, too. One left but it's not until Monday. I'll have to make three double-sided "cheat sheets" over the weekend though but I know what types of questions will be on the exams.

My finals starts end of May. It'll be a busy month for me.

 

[Roo]

I don't miss school...
Or homework or essays or tests or study for that matter.

:3

 

[IntelliHeath]

Plus they *ALWAYS* should go in the middle of the track. I hate with a passion when you make room for bullet bills to pass only to get your ass kicked off-road because said bullet took the same tight turn as you. *cough* Heath *cough*

Roo pls!

 

[Omnicent]

so figured I'd mess around with Mr. Scooty.... shits pretty good with the right setup (dat 5+ acceleration is much better than I thought).

Also, anyone in the 200cc frantic room?
Hmm speed on this build may be to low, though I love the handling of it

 

[Boney]

I'll be on in 15 minutes

 

[Azure J]

Just messed around with some new setups. Why does Male Villager + Sport Bike + Slicks look so good while also possessing the same speed as my Rosalina + Sport Bike + Retro Off Roaders with far more handling? :lol

I also now see why so many of you made the switch to FemVillager. Her stats are fucking whoa.

an extra .25 acceleration really works wonders.

Also using offroad ties over slims/triforce tires will always be wrong stats wise

 

[EmCeeGramr]

i'm the best mario karter in the world

 

[Boney]

You guys in normal or frantic?

 

[Azure J]

Yay, I got my first first in a Big Blue 200cc FranticGAF room*

[Omnicent]

my wii u did the thing where the picture cut out

 

[Boney]

We should totally switch to normal while it's early wink wink

 

[Azure J]

why

 

[EmCeeGramr]

mushrooms are a great item to receive every time on baby park they are very useful

 

[EmCeeGramr]

well nobody's on normal

 

[Omnicent]

well nobody's on normal

we are all in frantic 200cc. what is this normal you speak of?

 

[Azure J]

I got hit with a horn and I was never heard from again in that Baby Park race.
