Tentacruel Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Or some kind of built in immunity to items? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 If only there were an immunity to items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I honestly haven't had that much trouble. Like, I got screwed by items on maybe half the 150 and Mirror cups, but I ran through mirror. Of the 8 minimum tries I think I might have taken about 12. For the total 16, maybe 30ish attempts. I do think I got lucky, but yea just take turns well. Thats what I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 As long as simply getting hit by items or falling off the track doesn't make you lose stars like with Wii, I don't imagine getting three stars for everything would be difficult at all.

Lonk Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I got all three stars on every cup within the span of 3 days. It's nothing too impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agro Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 So I was playing online today, and I was leading on Yoshi Valley. First off, Bullet Bills are bullshit there, because the computer can never tell who's in first place, so even if I have a large lead, there's still a chance the second place person can catch up to me with a single bullet bill because it doesn't know what place the player is in at the time.More importantly, I was taking the lower outside lane (aka, the fastest route) and I see a blue shell closing in. This blue shell ends up on an alternate route than me, though, and so instead of turning around and taking me out, it continues on the path, ALL THE WAY AROUND until it makes a complete lap and disappears.Who said you needed a Super Horn to beat a blue shell?Also after playing online off an on, I stopped today after getting to a 1300 rating. Which, strangely enough, is higher than like anyone else I've run into online so far. I'm assuming they've been pairing me with the lightweights because I never played enough, which is why I kept getting first... except on Toad's Turnpike, which I still am having a hard time to figure out because it's just so boringly designed...

Shradow Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 TT was boring on the 64, I think they did what they could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 It's a figure 8, which would be easier to figure out if it wasn't so simple a track.It's like the only track I got lower than 3rd place today. I ended up in 8th. It was so weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Oh, but I like both Toad Turnpikes...64's basically made all items useless about 60% of the time.WiiU's added another lane(or two) and lets you go jumping around on the cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Toad's Turnpike is amazing. I always get 1st on that track. I feel that the RNG in that game is even more bullcrap though. How is it that I consistently keep getting the coin item in 1st and then the 2nd place person conveniently gets a red shell and throws it at me? Then, how is it that, after that, I get chucked by more red shells until I am in dead last? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the whole three starring everything. Snaking maintains your top speed while turning. Given the extra boost it isn't all that hard once you learn to dodge blue shells. If there would be anything I hate it would be the slipstream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agro Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Lol, snaking in mk8Item percentages are definitely off in this game. I was in 12th a few times today and got a single red shell almost every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 Item percentages are definitely off in this game. I was in 12th a few times today and got a single red shell almost every time. ugh i know. I still can't do Star in 150, because I'm not that great. I got to the point where Dolphin Shoals is really only bothering with me because items seem to screw with me more there, but it's the worst course of the cup, fo' sho'.

DL Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I have a theory If you press the item button before the reel stops it will STOP in ANY item I got Lucky 8 in SECOND PLACE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolspy74 Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 First of all, why the fuck is sonic in a go kart? He's faster than any go kart in the world. Second of all, Crash would have never caught on. Mainly, because of Sonic and Mario being way more popular than Crash. Last of all, Bowser is fat as hell................. To make sure you hear, HE'S FAT AS HELL! He weighs 10x the world, let alone the go kart. Really, I don't understand why some onf these characters are on the kart thing.

Flame Dragon Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I have a theory If you press the item button before the reel stops it will STOP in ANY item I got Lucky 8 in SECOND PLACE I think this happened to me when I was in 3rd. I think people have gotten like triple mushrooms in 2nd. Same with trip-red shell. But yea, I can agree that the items balance is a little off. I'm fine with a Red Shell when I'm far back, but it can get pretty annoying if it keeps happening. As for online, I'm already over 1400. I know I spent an hour or so playing a day or so ago and my lowest place was like 3rd. Over all lowest so far has been like 6th or 8th. Almost every other time I'm in the top 3.

Agro Posted June 8, 2014 Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I got over 1500 today. It gets a hell of a lot harder when you join a group after 1400.Either that, or I'm right in thinking that I've been bullshat on by items all day. First of all, why the f*** is sonic in a go kart? He's faster than any go kart in the world.Second of all, Crash would have never caught on. Mainly, because of Sonic and Mario being way more popular than Crash.Last of all, Bowser is fat as hell................. To make sure you hear, HE'S FAT AS HELL! He weighs 10x the world, let alone the go kart.Sonic is in a go kart because it wouldn't be fair otherwise, Crash was at one point Sony's biggest mascot and considered competition for Mario and on par with Sonic, and Bowser's size and weight changes constantly every time a new Mario game is released, so there's not really much point in even talking about it.

DL Posted June 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2014 I often crash into things and die I die So often Im often fast otherwise though.
