I've played this game quite a bit Luffy; never seen anyone get stuck on that way out of bounds tree on Royal Raceway before. Impressive

lol, I hate when I screw up.

Where are all the gaffers at?

 

[Finalow]

no one is playing now it seems, we were just 4.

 

[gingerbeardman]

I had a global 4 earlier on.

 

[Finalow]

one of the first races we did was awful.

Donut Plains 3, I get hit by something on the bridge and I go down into the water, after getting out of that I'm in 3km of grass. gg

 

[Zemm]

fuuuuck, wish I could disable drifting on the first few corners. Kind of like a DRS system in Formula 1.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Is there a full room or is it just is 4 right now?

Edit: 6 now

 

[Dr Prob]

Just bounced off Wario's ass in the end shortcut of Plant Slide, sending me offroad up against the fence and dashing my hopes and dreams.

Using lightweights is fun. When you do well it's rewarding, but sometimes you run into Wario's ass and that's not great.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

You're welcome Prob!

Took out the guy in first and then got blasted to the back.

 

[1up]

Rosalinas.... Rosalina everywhere.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Took out Prob and his red shell with my star. It doesn't slow him down and I still get hit with his red shell lol

 

[MisterLuffy]

Rosalinas.... Rosalina everywhere.

Because she's the best

Hey, GAF, how can I get into the GAF MK8 races?

 

[CrimsonCommie]

Lol the guy behind me got triple red shells twice in a row.

 

[Magnus]

Jesus Christ.

Is there a GAF Junior league? I just can't compete with you guys. I'm last or 2nd/3rd last every race, lol.

 

[MisterLuffy]

I'm done for today, ggs guys.

 

[Davey Cakes]

Hey, GAF, how can I get into the GAF MK8 races?

There's a code in the OP. You have to quote the OP to reveal it.

Three codes. Regular, mirror, and battle. Input into the tournament section in MK8's online menu.

I haven't yet participated in GAF races but I want to. Need to find the time.

You know what's funny? I've had MK8 since launch. Threw a party over it. Played online a few times already. And yet I haven't actually played Rainbow Road 64 yet. It's the only track that I haven't done even once.

 

[Magnus]

I gotta learn these goddamned shortcuts.

Is there a way to join Worldwide/Regional but ensure it's at 150cc? I don't like racing at anything slower. Even though I suck. Faster is fun!

 

[Saint Gregory]

Lol the guy behind me got triple red shells twice in a row.

It's good that you're gotten to the point where you can laugh about this

Edit: Meanwhile I can't laugh about getting run over by stars twice in the span of three seconds

 

[Grizzo]

Jumping in! (in case anybody is around)

Edit: Ugh can't join you, looks like the room is full, and I keep ending up with a room with 1 other player

 

[Item Box]

Who's the guy using Iggy in the GAF room ATM, that's my character

Cheating green shells smart bouncing and all - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_FG0qMXMiA

 

[Finalow]

failed so hard in those last curves of bone. fuck that track

 

[Item Box]

The level that gets the most votes is always the one that doesn't get picked, haha

 

[Saint Gregory]

God I still suck with this bike so hard

 

[EloquentM]

I can't get in the room it's only me and my buddy ={

 

[Roo]

From 3000VR and up they're 150cc
From 6500VR and up it's 150cc and Mirror
Or so I heard...

Looks like whoever said they bounce off walls always towards a racer's direction was right.

 

[Saint Gregory]

That's good to know but who did you mean to quote?

 

[Exentryk]

I've just gotten over 6500 VR, but I'm not looking forward to playing mirrors =/

 

[Roo]

That's good to know but who did you mean to quote?

Oops, sorry haha I meant to quote the guy above your comment ( the one I quoted)
Sorry

 

[Beren the Empty-Handed]

OK, time for some kart! I've got my favorite curses all ready to go. Here goes nothing!

 

[Finalow]

holy mother of fuck that was some bullshit.
got hit by a l. bolt just after the ramp and lost like 10 seconds, went from 4th to 10th. well OK game. edit/ on the last lap and near the end of it, of course.

 

[Dr Prob]

Almost fell out of my chair. omg Greg. That shock dodge then immediate disaster.

 

[Grizzo]

daripad. you. gotta. be. kidding. me.

Spoiler

that bomb fucked me up real bad

 

[chaosblade]

I've just gotten over 6500 VR, but I'm not looking forward to playing mirrors =/

I think mixed normal/mirror would be fun. I wish the GAF room was set up that way.

 

[MisterLuffy]

God I still suck with this bike so hard

I know. I still can't get the hang of turning. I mean I can turn sometimes but when you're boosting with mushrooms or boosting randomly, you start losing control. Also, I tend to mess up so many times when I do a sharp turn.

 

[Finalow]

fuck that, Prob. did you get mushrooms or just better drifts than me?

 

[Saint Gregory]

I know. I still can't get the hang of turning. I mean I can turn sometimes but when you're boosting with mushrooms or boosting randomly, you start losing control. Also, I tend to mess up so many times when I do a sharp turn.

For some reason when I try to drift I go straight instead :/

That never happened to me with karts. I'm not giving up tho

 

[Furenlazor]

This game is so good. I've been playing Nintendo games for 20 years, but this is my first MK... Shame on me.

 

[Choppasmith]

Wow! What a finish! Saving that one for sure!

 

[Animal]

Just got the game. So tracks are so lively and beautiful! Really love the music as well.

I'm looking for people to play

 

[Saint Gregory]

Had 3rd with two red shells then drift off the track for no reason.

End in 7th

 

[Metaternal]

Man, can't break 4th to save my life!

 

[Choppasmith]

Had 3rd with two red shells then drift off the track for no reason.

End in 7th

That's happened to me too. I know that feel, man.

 

[MisterLuffy]

Same here.

 

[JC Lately]

Man, can't break 4th to save my life!

4th? If I consistently make it to sixth place, I’m having an awesome day.

 

[Metaternal]

Guess that race was the tradeoff, huh?

 

[Finalow]

airport must be a cursed track for me. got hit by ten thousand items and then got stuck in a place before a jump. gg go next

 

[Roo]

I hate the combo I'm using right now lol

 

[Metaternal]

This is a weird pattern.
