It's your own fault for buying a modern Nintendo product. Even 8 Deluxe did this bullshit on occasion. Come back to Mario Kart Wii via Wiimmfi if you want an actual good game.

>>713715835 (OP)
that's bullshit man. let people have fun

$80 well spent.

>>713715835 (OP)
its generally frowned upon to drive a vehicle through areas where spectators are standing in a race, even if you intend to use it as a shortcut

>>713717865
>going in that direction isn't fun somehow

>>713715835 (OP)
people aren't defending this game though? it's being called out.

>>713715835 (OP)
>make a game where you can do tricks and skips where the game practically wants you to test how far you can push it
>lakitu gets in the way constantly
>no clear indicators to show what is and what isn't okay for a shortcut
this isn't even a good example, there are tons of places where trying to cut a tiny corner with a trick or feather will just have the game stop you and punish you for trying

DO NOT TAKE SHORTCUTS!
DO NOT PLAY ON 3 LAPS!
TOO FUN! WE DIDN'T CHARGE YOU $80 TO HAVE FUN!

>>713715835 (OP)
Lego Racers would never.

Why do middle-aged men get into kids' games and try to sweat competing with kids? Go play games for adults retard

>>713718968
NOOOO STOP PLAYING THE GAMES YOU LIKE, YOU'RE ONLY ALLOWED TO PLAY DARK SOULS

>>713718462
>>no clear indicators to show what is and what isn't okay for a shortcut
Not a single MK game allowed you shortcut through spectators...
For everyone, except World haters, it always was a pretty good fucking indicator

>>713719031
As if it's normal to like baby things. Yeah, stop being a retard or don't be offended by being called one.

>>713719031
>WHY CAN'T I CHEAT IN THIS COMPETITIVE GAME WHERE MY OPPONENTS ARE 8-12 YEARS OLD!?

>>713719127
im not talking about just the one in the image, I mean in general

>>713719238
Video games are a childish hobby. I think you're in the wrong place desu

>>713715835 (OP)
thats good. i play this casually and wouldnt know or bother with these sweaty ass shortcuts, i want to play it fair and square.

i will certainly question why niggas out here getting heated over fucking mario kart. if you wanna be competitive, why pick this goofy ahh game for kids?

>>713717024
>>713715835 (OP)
>try to cheat
>lose

>>713718124
It's not "through" that area though, it's "over" that area.
The out of bounds should only trigger if the kart had actually landed there.

>>713719705
It's okay, dude. You can say ass here.

>>713715835 (OP)
I had this problem on the yoshi map in mk8 dlc. Sending you flying at that last stretch was so dumb

>>713715835 (OP)
For me it's the full grown man holding his face in embarrassment on the verge of tears because he got 4th place in a kids game

>>713715835 (OP)
that'll be $500 plus tip and NO REFUNDS

>>713715835 (OP)
No fun allowed. MK64 was the last one to have egregious shortcuts.

>>713719127
It's not that easy to tell, especially looking at the Whistletop WRs which have a cut on a rail right next to spectators. Even if you miss the cut and fly into them, Lakitu doesn't bother you at all.

>>713719815
>Lakitu needs to wait for little Timmy Toad to get crushed under DK's kart before he steps in

>>713719705
You've never played an online game of MK
Also stop typing like a fucking nigger

>>713718968
Sweating with shortcuts and exploits is how I and my friends played Mario Kart and Crash Team Racing as kids.

>>713719814
>cheat
anon, that's using a shortcut and it's not limited to yourself.
it's not rocket science to replicate what he just did

>mario kart walled

>>713715835 (OP)
>fully grown man trying to cheat in a game with mostly children
It's hard to think of something more pathetic.

>>713715835 (OP)
>game tells you to stay in the course at all times
>shortcuts are not allowed and historically all out of bounds "shortcuts" are glitches
>"OMG I WANT TO CHEAT NINTENDO BAD"

>>713720489
does using a shortcut counts as cheating though?

>>713720705
If you go over/through the audience then it's not a shortcut

>>713719946
Not true, MK Wii had some retarded shortcuts early on and a glitch that allowed players to "finish" the race in 1 second. It was so bad Nintendo had to patch it, which was uncommon in the Wii era.

>>713720705
Yes, using glitches is cheating.
>inb4 a smelly Melee player gets an aneurysm

>>713718461
They literally are defending it, just reading this thread. It's a Nintendo game, so of course people have to defend eating shit because muh developer intent, the only company where this happens.

>>713721226
anon. it's literally being called out for removing a "bug" that let people not have to do the intermission races.

>>713720168
>italian plumber jumping on depictions of animals and throwing them down pits
ok
>fictional fantasy spectator character gets knocked over by a kart in a racetrack environment, no blood, no gore
WOAH CALL ESRB RATED M FOR MATURE

>the actual fucking state of this board

>>713721454
Are you illiterate? People are defending the shitty "intermission" (which they're not when they take up most of the race) races because it's a Nintendo game.

>>713715835 (OP)
People really sucked all of the fun out of video games by turning even something like a children's party game into an autistic, hyper-competitive sweatfest where you're either playing the 'meta' or you may as well not be playing at all

mario kart wii allows it

>crowd stops you there
>but you can go here and Lakitu won't even bother
I don't really get it, but I hope they don't end up changing this part at least.

>>713715835 (OP)
>People
tendies aren't people

>>713722701
>posting one of the most broken tracks in the series

>>713719815
as above, so below

if you want to hunt shortcuts why not play trackmania?
oh because that actually requires skill and you aren't playing against literal kids

t. Shiggy

last night I was so far ahead in a knockout tour that you could see like an inch of distance between me and the others on the mini map
get near the end and what happens? 3 red shells, two of which I was able to deal with but then the third got me and then a blue.
Wound up in 6th
fuck this game

>People are defending the shitty "intermission" (which they're not when they take up most of the race) races because it's a Nintendo game.
no... they aren't? everyone I'm seeing is critcizing the fact that they HAVE to play them and it's not an option.

>>713724195
NTA and it's pretty obvious from the lobby voting that most players don't like intermissions, but you do get anons in these threads defending nintendo. There's always going to be desperate fanboys, especially when they paid 500 dollars for this thing.

>>713715835 (OP)
lmao the seething sonoids are having over the switch 2 is crazy
That's how you know we're winning girls
I'm gonna take my girldick out and pump it to Zelda in celebration

>>713723506
Trackmania with items would be pretty awesome.

>>713724517
>>713724195
Intermissions are good and fun, it's awesome driving to the track and seeing the environment change and some of the entrances to the tracks are amazing.

>>713724624
I don't have any issue with them. I just think people should be allowed to not have to play them and Nintendo removing a workaround that let people avoid them is lame.

>>713724624
My only issue with them is that you end up doing one single lap. At least make it two laps of the actual track
