How do we save Mario Kart World before it falls out of the zeitgeist forever?

>>714579494 (OP)
it's a kid's party game. don't play it too seriously. play a few races, have fun and move on

>>714579551
But you paid 80 dollars for this.

HE'S SAD, PATHETIC!

I don't play racing games they look the same to me, what makes Mario Kart World shit exactly?

>>714580768
Probably because it's not on switch 1 so people here can't pirate it

Easy mode to fix online play:
>Give people options to play the way they want online.
>Can only get one powerful item at a time.
>Remove hidden stats or balance road surfaces where one will not have a clear advantage or reduce road specific stats so they will not be the obvious best choice.
>Tournament/group codes like MK8.


Try to justify the $80 mode:
>Single player story mode or some meaningful content to give direction for interacting with the open world.
>Unlocks are from single player rather than random chance and grinding coins.
>Varied paths for knockout tour rather than a few set routes. Routes will go through the more interesting areas around the tracks similar to what they do now for Crown City.

>>714580768
You get items based on your position in the race, and you get better items if you're further back in the race. So it's a popular strategy to play badly to get good items, then to catch up at the very end of the race.
That's an over simplified explanation, but you can watch some of the videos on the shortcat youtube channel if you really want to dive in.

Nice game

There are a shit ton of disingenuous "reviews" that act as if you can't simply join a lobby and play traditional vs mode. Its not that fucking hard to find a lobby code online.

I never play Mario Kart for more than a month or so, this feels natural to me. Nintendo just needs to add a 3-lap mode and everyone will admit that this is the best Mario Kart ever made.

>>714581225
>Upset I fixed your boring competitive strategy.
Sorry, but Mario Kart is and will always be a casual party game. No one wants you people who look up stats online, plan out the best way to get items, and then try to time using them to avoid lightning.

>>714581136
And you don't see a problem with fucking Mario Kart having to become a Discord game like it's a mediocre fighting game?

>>714579494 (OP)
They should have added more meaningful shit to do in their fuck-ass open world they want you to love and not sabotaged the way people play the game online. What good are these cool new driving mechanics when most of your play time is spent driving on fucking highways with no walls or rails to do anything with.

>>714581024
>Give people options to play the way they want online.
Sure
>Can only get one powerful item at a time.
This wouldn't fix bagging being the best strat
Say you put: blue shell, star, shock, gold, bullet all in one tier and the game checks that if the player rolls one of those they can't get another item in that tier
That doesn't matter for bagging and it'd become even better since the guys in the back will just get power item + x3 shroom and surge while the guys up front continue to get fucked
The reason why bagging is so strong since MK8/DX is because of how Nintendo changed the item logic, it's a flaw in the new item system itself
>Remove hidden stats or balance road surfaces where one will not have a clear advantage or reduce road specific stats so they will not be the obvious best choice.
All they have to do is show what the real stats are
Nintendo has retarded game design for basing some characters and karts entirely around certain terrain types that barely show up in the tracks while road is 95% of the game
They would have to spam a ton of tracks that have water and off-road to excuse the balancing choice or change how speed stats work like how MK8 had a better design for stats
>Tournament/group codes like MK8.
Sure
>Single player story mode or some meaningful content to give direction for interacting with the open world.
Nintendo's never doing that, too much effort
>Unlocks are from single player rather than random chance and grinding coins.
Should have been the obvious thing for them to do
>Varied paths for knockout tour rather than a few set routes. Routes will go through the more interesting areas around the tracks similar to what they do now for Crown City.
Best idea in the whole post that sounds fun as fuck

>>714579494 (OP)
So why do /v/eekends get full lobbies?

>>714579494 (OP)
Reminds me of console shooters where the winning strat is to turn aim assist up to max and then barely touch your aiming joystick because letting the game aim for you is straight up better.

Consoles were a mistake.

>>714583985
It's not really a flaw in the system, it's more like an inevitable tradeoff from what Nintendo wants. Nintendo wants Mario Kart to be a fun party game where you always have a chance, even if you're bad. Hence the catchup mechanics.
It's not supposed to be a game like Forza where if you're bad you get lapped and just stay way in the back in a hopeless situation.

>>714584563
>fun (...) game
>you always have a chance
Contradictory. A game in which the ideal winning strat is to intentionally play badly because the game rewards playing badly cannot be a fun game.

>>714584881
Depends how hard you examine the game. Think a 7 year old (Nintendo's Audience) cares?

>>714584970
>Think a 7 year old (Nintendo's Audience) cares?
No, they don't care if the game is fun or not, they just see the funny flashing lights and it keeps them entertained the same way tiktok does.

>>714579494 (OP)
whats happening in that video?

>>714585423
Person is playing badly on purpose so they will be at the back of the race and get good item drops, which they will use to win the race later.

>>714585423
People intentionally staying behind during a race because the game rewards you with better items if you play badly. Quality Nintendo game design on display.

>>714584563
>It's not really a flaw in the system,
It is when the previous MKs before 8 had catch up systems that had far less complaints than 8 and still did their design job
Bagging only became an extreme problem since 8 and is where all the complaints started, players have no real counter to the strat which is why the only thing players can do is try to shame people that use it but the people that bag don't care what others think so it just results in a constant stream of complaints and criticisms
>Nintendo wants Mario Kart to be a fun party game where you always have a chance, even if you're bad.
This is a pathetic excuse, every Mario Kart game is designed to be a fun party game
The only reason the series still exists today is because Nintendo succeeded in making the series a fun party game but that doesn't mean there isn't obvious flaws in new systems they introduce kek

>>714585423
they're bagging, intentionally staying behind to get good items that give a big advantage once they catch up
doing it the way they do is really fucking bad though, closing the gap on intermission tracks is much too hard

>>714585556
Flaws for who though? I think Nintendo doesn't care because they're not trying to court the try hards, and want to make MK a better experience for the ultra casuals.

>>714579494 (OP)
There's a few things they could do to fix the game:
>200cc to help make intermissions feel faster
>3 laps after every intermission (5 for the SNES tracks and Peach Stadium 1)
>Adding the + Change option to online so people can pick any track
>Adding the missing battle modes from the MK8 (Renegade Roundup, Bob-omb Blast, Shine Thief)
>Custom Knockout Tour using any combination of 6 intermissions
>Custom Track Builder using any location from the open world, even on existing tracks

Also, new characters, costumes, and tracks of course.

>>714579663
>>714579719
Make that 500 dollars. You brought a whole console for one game, that according to >>714579551 you should "play a few races, have fun and move on"

>>714583985
I would have included triple mushroom as a strong item that couldn’t be paired with the others. On intermissions it is just as good as the other, if not better since you can potentially get two shortcuts out of it. If it were up to me, I’d only allow one item at a time, but I was trying to come up with an idea that doesn’t change too much.

Why is /v/ trying to force this meme? literally nobody is going back to 8. everyone is just going to keep playing world while still complaining about it constantly.

That shit has been a thing since at least the Wii version of MK.

>>714585885
Why have you guys spammed this faggot e-celeb ever since World released?

>>714585556
For me it was 8D with the double items. Limit it to just one item and it would be much better

>>714585556
>players have no real counter to the strat
Play normally? Bagging is only optimal on a minority of tracks in 8D.

>>714586372
>play normally
>get raped by items and lose

>>714583142
No, we payed 450 for the console and 50 for the game.

>>714586429
Sounds like a skill issue. Again bagging is said to only be optimal on a minority of tracks.

fuckong love this game ive played it for like 60+ hours in online and time trials. fucking everything
it is INSANE that there is no option to just play normal races. literally 80% of your time spent in this game online is in the open world sections and it's just not as fun as actual tracks.
the fact that nintendo saw people just wanted to play normal races and denied them that ability is so fucking infuriating i can hardly articulate it.
im down for races right now if someone makes a lobby and test how good i am at the game or whatever. it's just so fucking tone deaf of nintendo to say
>oh you don't love the open world well then fuck you play more of it
it's just fucking insane. good game otherwise

>>714586481
You bought a console for one game, so yes you paid 500 dollars for it.

>>714586429
That's 100% a skill issue.

>>714586481
What other switch 2 exclusives are you currently playing on your console?

>>714585758
>I would have included triple mushroom as a strong item that couldn’t be paired with the others
That would make it too useless
Triple shroom is in this sweet spot of being the best speed item you can get but it's not as strong as the actual power items like star, shock, gold, bullet.
It's main appeal is pairing it with an actual power item because otherwise it's just used for SCs or a quick overtake like a normal shroom.
If you put triple shroom in this theoretical unique item tier that only allows you one of each item, triple shroom will turn into an unwanted item that would only annoy players because they missed out on the chance to get a more powerful item like the others mentioned above

The use of triple shroom on intermissions is kind of irrelevant since more people are realizing that the baggers are right about how it's impossible to get left behind if you just trail behind the pack while everyone in front items each other
Nothing matters until you actually get to the last lap and race on the track, and by that point you want to make sure you have the best items you can get so you can try to get a good spot
Using a triple shroom to take an SC before that doesn't give you much of a gain because the catch up system is designed to punish you if you get too far ahead and the intermission tracks are the longest ones in the game so it's inevitable you'll get item'd and slow down unless you combo the triple with a power item near the end to steal the win

Knockout Tour is a different story though where I'd say you're right about triple's use but in that case, it'd make more sense to make a unique item system for that mode like how there's always a different system for vs AI and vs Players online

>>714586582
>You bought a console for one game
No I didn't, retard.

>>714586646

This might shock you, but the future exists and you can make reasonable predictions about what might happen.

At better performance, plus all future games for said device, yes. Just like I bought a $400 GPU AND $200 CPU to play my PC games at better performance, as well as all future PC games.

There is a huge difference between people who don't praise Nintendo, and people who claim that their online games with millions of steadily RISING players, is somehow catastrophically losing players and dying. And then spamming this falsehood on /v/ over and over and over and over.

The whole thing with Switch 2 in general is off. There really isn't that much interest in it compared to what it should have right now. Attention is still, by and large, on what PlayStation, PC and even Xbox are doing. Nintendo should be blowing all three away in discussion and buzz, but it's more of a "Switch 2 came out. Neat! And Mario Kart? Cool! Anyway..." kind of feel.

I don't see that really changing at all this year either. It'll do well for Black Friday and Christmas, but this isn't close to what the Switch 1 pull in terms of perception and reception. I still blame Switch 2 basically being a just Switch again but better graphics and a little bigger, but we'll see how things play out long term.

>>714588007

>>714586669
That all makes sense and you may be right, but at the same time it isn’t so bad to have a less desirable item in a tier. At least you aren’t the poor sap in the tier ahead of you that got a coin box on the last set of items before the finish. If you are too far behind without enough time to get more items, I think it is ok to leave a possible catch up to luck. Alternatively, just include triple mushrooms as an item that can’t stack, but don’t include it in the possible items to get in last place if you want to avoid having people stuck with a meh item.

What items you get shouldn't be based on position, but instead actual distance from 1st place. So like 16th place will still get 2nd place equivalent items if positions 1st-16th are very close together.
I don't know if this fixes bagging, but it's probably an improvement.

You should kane known this from ages ago, everyone ignores them as they bot away every day.

>>714581024

The only two options we need are rooms for people who want to play with level transitions and rooms for those that want to play without it.
Secondly items are balanced in MK believe it or not. What needs to change is the rubberbanding for speed. If youre in lower placements your speed has a modifier to help you catch up. Its no longer justified in Mario Kart considering the sheer size of the tracks now.
Removing hidden stats and "balancing" surfaces is dumb ultra casual shit. Learn to play the game.

Random was always selecting 3 lap tracks when it was supposed to be 'truly random' so Nintendo fixed it.
People are upset because they lost a guaranteed way of selecting 3 lap tracks and now have to gamble on random occasionally selecting intermission tracks alongside 3 lap tracks.

I think I'm taking crazy pills because I genuinely enjoy the online in this game. It was better before the update but still. I'm like 8500 VR so not terrible but not amazing either. I try to have fun when I'm playing and not be too serious. I like creating memorable moments for people. One time I waited horizontally parallel to the finish line and a guy drove into me to pass. I popped a mega to jumpscare him as he bashed into me and crossed the line. Like yeah you lose points and whatever but you have fun and it's funny.

>>714592196
The main problem with the game now is just making a good chunk of the content rare to be able to play online. The game is good, but you need to get on the internet and find private lobbies to be able to effectively play the good parts online. Letting people play the game the way they want is probably the least contrarian opinion someone could have.

>>714582118

>mediocre reception
86 on metacritic means the game is solid as fuck, most people are having fun with it, the biggest complaint is about the "empty" open world, which, as usual with ragebait YouTubers, is an overexaggeration born out of the disappointment that rewards are just stickers, rather than an actual complaint about the content of the open world itself. People have only praise for the Knockout Tour mode, the rest of the "complaints" are just "pros" malding about a party game not catering to their competitive needs and blowing things out of proportion or casuals sucking and blaming it on the game (tale as old as time with Mario Kart)

>streamers dropping it
Mario Kart streamers are digging their own grave by being overly critical of the game that will give them views for years on end, to this day, no one has dropped the game for a previous game like 8DX because they know they'll lose even more viewers if they do that, 8DX is an 11 year old game at this point and people are tired of watching that.

Nobody talking about "dropping World and going back to 8" is actually going to go through with it, it's all ragebait.

>online playerbase drying up
People can still get full lobbies in seconds for every mode, stop lying.

>lobbies are just 9000 VP Japanese baggers
You just contradicted your previous statement, you acknowledge that people ARE playing the game.

>resurgent interest in 8, Wii, and even the 64 decompilation
Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart Wii have always had permanently active communities, the games are just full of exploits and glitches that make them fun to revisit for speedruns and compfaggotry, nothing to do with World's momentum.

The tracks themselves are pretty solid for the most part. It just sucks that Nintendo is so intent on sabotaging themselves by shoving the intermission tracks down our throats. Why they couldn't have made them exclusive to Knockout Tour while GP stays the way it always was is beyond me.

>>714593457
>to this day, no one has dropped the game for a previous game
Didn't that TWD98 guy stick with MK Wii and basically skip 8DX? I saw one guy do a 8DX video after World already released and the comments were saying how nice it was to see people hadn't completely dropped 8DX

>>>>714589292

>streamers

>>714593457
>just "pros" malding about a party game not catering to their competitive needs
How does allowing people to choose to play the more well designed course have anything to do with competitive play and why would you not want to cater to that desire? The game already caters to people who like transition courses with knockout tour and does a great job at it, so there is no point in also making the race mode single stage knockout tour. It seems a bit crazy to defend a game that goes out of its way to stop people from having fun in the way they want to protect the developer's ego at the expense of the players.

>People can still get full lobbies in seconds for every mode, stop lying.
I don't remember the last time I've been in a full lobby. There are obviously more than 24 people playing to be able to make a full lobby, but there is something off about the matchmaking.

>>714594178
Again, the MKWii communities are permanently active regardless of new Mario Karts being released, it's just a matter of people's attachment to that game and it's mechanics.

>I saw one guy do a 8DX video after World already released and the comments
Compare views, World is going to get more views than 8DX simply on the factor of novelty (nevermind that there's perfectly valid reasons to consider World's gameplay superior). Streamers that want to stick with 8DX are going to have their views severely affected, so unless they always planned on sticking to 8DX, this reactionary rage will not last.

>>714579494 (OP)
It won't. Went to a normie party for the 4th of July yesterday. Played Mario Kart World on a friend's Switch 2. Was fun. Would play again.

>>714594516
>Compare views
What's going to determine views is the channel and all the biggest channels moved to World because of course they did.

>Again, the MKWii communities are permanently active regardless of new Mario Karts being released, it's just a matter of people's attachment to that game and it's mechanics.
But that contradicts the argument that no one goes back to, or sticks with, an older mario kart.

>>714594510
>How does allowing people to choose to play the more well designed course have anything to do with competitive play and why would you not want to cater to that desire?
Because you can still do that, the only thing that the update did was to reduce the chances of getting three laps, additionally, people actually do like having intermission tracks every once in a while, it adds variety to the selection, 3-lap autism is absolutely a competitive complaint and a refusal to accept change.

>The game already caters to people who like transition courses with knockout tour
Some people like intermissions but feel that knockout tour is too stressing, I can see why.

>It seems a bit crazy to defend a game that goes out of its way to stop people from having fun
It does not, but nice Non-sequitur

>>714594510
You’re replying to high functioning retards, anon

>>714594716
>and all the biggest channels moved to World because of course they did.
Yes, World is newer, bigger and better, hence the point.

>the argument that no one goes back to, or sticks with, an older mario kart.
Because I never made that point to begin with, I said that some people will still naturally remain stuck in a previous game simply out of personal attachment to its specific mechanics and refuse to move to never entries (see: Melee).

That doesn't mean World is "losing momentum" or that it's "Universally considered mediocre".

>>714595257

>>714594993
>Because you can still do that, the only thing that the update did was to reduce the chances of getting three laps
The chances are low enough that I'd rather just grind time trials and get the collectables in free roam until /v/ lobbies open. There is no reason not to have a mode that lets you reliably play 3 lap courses or just give vote options for both 3 lap courses and intermissions every time and let people decide for themselves.

>every once in a while
This is the key. When they are every course, you end up with less variety since they all feel pretty similar and you lose the effect of having a change of pace compared to the more intense regular races. Playing nothing but 3 lap courses actually provides more variety than playing nothing but intermissions, even if there are 200+.

>3-lap autism is absolutely a competitive complaint
Explain why you think that is? Why does the course having a more intentional design with more though put into them make it competitive? Do you really think Mario Kart has been a competitive game up until now?

>>714595070
I'm just in a mood to argue. I don't expect this to go anywhere.

>>714595560
And Mario Kart World has a full fledged open world full or roads everywhere that connect the tracks and allows for basically all sorts of combinations on where you get to and how you do the laps, plus the ability to explore said open world and gain access to over 300+ missions with all sorts of objectives, so e of which includes actually huge secrets like an additional 10 retro tracks hidden in the open world.

Complain about the open world all you want, but World is factually bigger than all Mario Kart games before it, and people ARE using this content they supposedly think is "bland" to get views.

And it's working.

Don't forget what Mario Kart 8 looked like when it first launched.

Mario Kart has fallen

>>714596113
Yeah, I think anyone saying they’d choose base game 8 over world is lying to themselves

>>714595257

>>714595887
>>714595887

So they still exist, thus, adding to the variety, glad my point got through.

>>714595887
>just give vote options for both 3 lap courses and intermissions every time and let people decide for themselves.
This, however, I agree with, because it's an option given on the non-random tracks, dunno how that would work for matchmaking since that usually turns into a mess though.

>When they are every course
But they're not, you can still get 3-laps through random

>Playing nothing but 3 lap courses actually provides more variety than playing nothing but intermissions, even if there are 200+.

>You KNOW exactly what OP meant by "Mediocre Reception"
That a lot of people have said they're disappointed with the game and it actually rates fairly low as far as Mario Kart games go. All that's true. It's not the same as a "Universally considered mediocre" which as you're demonstrating isn't true.

There's no semantics to the definition of a quote. It's pretty clear cut.

Why did they even put an OOB hitbox there, there's literally no advantage to a player who manages to get that high since there are no shortcuts to take, and being in the air like that is way slower than being grounded

>So they still exist, thus, adding to the variety, glad my point got through.
The obviously exist, but they are much more rare than they should be.

>dunno how that would work for matchmaking since that usually turns into a mess though.
If it is just two standard courses and two intermissions every time, I don't see what the issue would be. With only a few options, you probably won't end up playing the same course every time like you might worry about letting people pick any course like in private lobbies. I would assume we would get a better mix of standard and intermission courses too rather then intermissions being heavily favored.

>You don't believe that yourself, that sounds extremely retarded the way you worded it.
I genuinely do believe this. If you remove all of the textures/decorations and make obstacles hitboxes leaving nothing but the road, many of the intermissions would look and play similar. This does not apply to the main courses where each turn, alternative paths, and shortcuts are carefully planned out. Even without the visual theme, they would all still feel unique.

>That a lot of people have said they're disappointed with the game
That's called "mixed reception", not "mediocre reception", which by the way, is fundamentally untrue, as there's only a small, but very vocal section that is truly discontent with the game, notice how also a lot of people don't even compare it to previous MK games, because they know their complaints are either standard for the series, overly exaggerated, or all simply accept that World is better than the old games and just want the game to be even better, but don't know how to word it in a way that doesn't negative.

>it actually rates fairly low as far as Mario Kart games
It actually rates right in the middle, which is good, because the Mario Kart games that are below it are also good.

The highest rated Mario Kart is Super Circuit, btw, largely considered "The Worst Mario Kart game", so even this metric is not indicative of the quality of World relative to the other Mario Kart games.

>That's called "mixed reception", not "mediocre reception"
Yes so OP used the words wrong. As you say, I still know what he meant. Still doesn't mean he said "Universally considered mediocre" or meant that.

And again, pointing out you're using quotes wrong isn't semantics.

>>714598325
>The obviously exist, but they are much more rare than they should be.
Then the complaint should be about a higher ratio of 3-lap tracks from Random, not the complete removal of intermission tracks from it.

>I would assume we would get a better mix of standard and intermission courses too rather then intermissions being heavily favored
This I agree with, could be fixed in an update rather quick.

>>714598325
>many of the intermissions would look and play similar.
But they do not, you're trying to place all intermission tracks in the same mold as the Mario Circuit > Crown City mostly linear track, when there are some roads that are either full of curves and rails in the middle, ones that basically take place in the air or during an ascension (The ones to Bowser's castle and Airship Fortress) or even ones that feel like part of the track themselves (Rainbow Road, Acorn Heights, Dino-Dino Jungle).

I say that limiting or restricting this tracks alone would take a huge chunk of content away from the game, and thus, would make it FAR less varied than 3-lap tracks only.

>>714599513

If people liked the intermission tracks so much then people wouldn't have been abusing the picking random exploit online so hard Nintendo had to patch it out. They make sense in Knockout Tour where the point is to make it from checkpoint to checkpoint. They make less sense in GP where people just want to experience specific tracks.

>not the complete removal of intermission tracks from it.
Maybe there is a misunderstanding. I don't think intermissions should be removed. Aside from them being too common, I do really like the visual aspects of the transition between different areas and entering a track. I also like the change of pace when you enter a track and things suddenly start to feel serious. I've also really enjoyed free roam as well. My issue with the game in general though is that I it feels like I never really even played the game after finishing the single player content and playing some multiplayer until I went out of my way to specifically play the regular courses and get a good feel for them. If nothing else, I am definitely not going to advocate for allowing players to choose how they want to play the game, but only apply that for players that agree with me.

>But they do not
After making that claim, I thought I should actually see how many unique features I could remember where the driving feels unique. I a came up with driving over the large bridge, the waterfall with an upper and lower path, the hairpin road where you just go straight down over the ledges rather than following the road, the drainage path near toad factory, 90 degree turns of the ghost area, jumping down waterfalls in the Japanese theme area, and walls near bowser's castle. The spiral you mentioned on the way up to the airship is also a good one that I had forgotten. My claim that they are all the same is not absolute, but there just isn't enough interesting features compared to the amount of time you are expected to play the courses. I'll also add that there are seemingly interesting things in the open world that I haven't see in an intermission. For example, the roads around Whistlestop seem like they could make a great course segment.

>>714601427
>Kek all of this is absolute bullshit,
The discord one is true. People are actually being encouraged to go on discord for lobbies so that they avoid Nintendo's matchmaking.

>>714602197
Track design wise Crossworlds has the leg up against Worlds due to the random map selection on the 2nd lap to mix things up so no race will ever be the same although you can turn that feature off.
Not to mention Crossworlds also has Splatfest-like events online and actual ranks with rewards so I hardly believe that people will get bored of Crossworlds if they didn't get bored of the relatively safe open world of MKW

>>714602398
I love it because it will just compound the slow online connections and lack of filled lobbies making the game look even WORSE! Lmfao.

Like all things that look easy, you have to practice autistically until it becomes muscle memory, and have enough game knowledge to cover the rest.

>>714603047
I only realized today that you don't actually have to hit checkpoints as long as you make it to the goal in time. It made that one Shyguy Bazaar P-switch that seemed like a huge step up in difficulty much easier. They are really generous with the time to let you just skip a segment if you mess up. Not sure if that is universally helpful though since the times are generally tighter.

>>714603429
Some challenges have checkpoints that don't spawn unless you clear the previous one, just did one in Choco mountain where I tried to skip but couldn't find another checkpoint.

This is just out and out false. I've seen people say that it's not worth 80 bucks for sure, but if anything I've seen a overwhelming sentiment that the actual racing is a great direction for the series and that Nintendo pushing intermissions is sabotaging the amazing actual courses.

>>714606304
less air time because it slows you down pretty bigly in World. It's also the reason those large boost ramps on some tracks are avoided when possible (like taking the first panel and then bailing on the one before the last turn on DK Pass). In cases where it's not avoidable (like later on Wario Stadium), you can do a Charge Trick and let it go RIGHT before going off the edge to get the speed boost while minimizing airtime.

>>714581289
NTA but wifi on switch 2 is so dogshit currently. AFAIK early on in the switch 1's life they pulled out some big update that improved the way the wifi card was optimized or something that made it bearable. So hopefully the switch 2 will get that at some point. Because currently it's really shoddy. I can generally play Mario Kart World fine 90% of the time, only getting a random disconnect every 5-6 matches or so. But other games like fortnite don't work at all on wifi. Even though the switch 1 had no issues connecting consistently over wifi for its mario kart and fortnitr version. If you try to complain or figure out why and look up reddit threads its literally just the most fucking sensitive tendies going "just use ethernet retard lmao" as if HALF OF THE POINT OF THE CONSOLE ISN'T FUCKING PORTABLE GAMING

Why is the general defense of this game's issues essentially don't try to win races? It's a racing game why shouldn't you try to get the best position? They added drifting to the series initially because they wanted skilled players to have a reason to keep playing.

>>714605172
>This is just out and out false. I've seen people say that it's not worth 80 bucks for sure
Then it's not out and out false. If you pay 80 bucks and decide it wasn't worth 80 bucks then it delivered below your expectations.

in my experience trying the trick in time trials it also seems like it helps you speed across the off-road section more consistently and quicker, which is important because if you go too slow you could get a bad angle and mess up jumping up the next wall

>>714609494
Saying "this game isn't worth 80 bucks" isn't equivalent to saying "This game is disappointing" because people had ALREADY made up their mind that the game wouldn't be worth 80 before release-and due to that just opted to get the bundle which makes it 50 bucks. We literally have data that most Switch 2 sales thus far in certain territories are with the bundle. Also, seeing people rank it as one of the worst Mario Kart is outright false-this isn't a widespread opinion, like, at all.

People are going to get the bundle anyway. MKW really is the only reason to get a Switch 2 right now after all.

You could also say something similar to people already making their minds up that the intermissions were going to be shit. Thing is people still expected to be able to skip them and found out the main online forces you to play them for the majority of the time. A disappointment on that front.

Then there's the people who were hoping for more from the open world. After all it was a big selling point.
