Topic: The official Nintendo Life Mario Kart 7 Community

i was, but i got bored with waiting and decided to spend time unlocking characters instead. sorry D:

@tbd ok, I managed to get into a game with two other people anyway.

Well, I was all set and ready to take some people to school, but nothing happened when I went into the community. Had some success in random online, but nothing with you guys' community yet

guys, a quick heads-up — when multiple users in the group are saying to 'wait for more players', WAIT FOR MORE PLAYERS. please, it's just common courtesy... chances are we're trying to pull in another specific friend or two, and when you up and start the race, we have to play through until it's over, thus leaving the other friend(s) hanging until the GP is done. not cool :/

When are most people typically online? I've tried going on the NLife community a few times and no one was biting.

Nobody is ever on, and when they they are, they are in a match in progress. So I went back to unlocking characters and kart pieces.

@Kid_A, Normally I'll be on from 5-8 p.m. eastern standard time.
And I play quite a bit of Mario Kart online, so it's a good bet you'll see me around.

Also, just wondering, but is there any chance there'll be a nintendolife battle mode community?

Until an official one is made, if there will be one, see here for some: https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/online_gaming/mario_kart_7...

Raced against Adam and some others a less than an hour ago. I did great on DK Jungle but the others...not so much

I'm usually on around 9-11 P.M Alaska Time, so that's unfortunately pretty late.

If anyone ever wants to race the soon to be legendary Retro, I'm usually on 6:30-8:00 Central TIme. 7:30-8:00 if I have a bunch of homework.
If anyones wondering why I will soon be so legendary, the legend will go:
There was once such an arrogant racer that everyone beat him easily. D:

Joined The Community...but having trouble joining races...

I joined last night but nobody was playing around 9 p.m. eastern. Anyone plan on playing tonight?

I've been trying to get on, but every time I have connected, the connection gets dropped either at the start of the race or near the end.

Yep, i suck. Anyone looking to boost their wins, just join a race that i'm in!

Hey James I just wanted to add that I'd be interested in an official battle community too

Just to let you all know, a lot of us have been racing under Worldwide because it can be a pain to coordinate people to start a GP together, and Worldwide allows people to drop in as soon as a given race is over. If you're having trouble arranging a match, try Worldwide — you may see some familiar names pop in :3

@theblackdragon - glad I checked this, thank you for the tip, I'll race after the 25th, never have much time to do things on Christmas or Boxing day for that matter. Also before I forget again, I like the new picture, nice to see you got the poor cat off smoking.

This is weird. On EU Launch on Friday loads of people were around, but now, despite the fact that the americans have now all got the game, everyone seems to have left! It's really annoying too! I was 4th on NL Items yesterday and I wake up at 7am GMT to find that the entire board is filled with people from the US! I wasn't even on the thing at all anymore! It's really annoying, because there is more people on NL for the US, there's hardly anyone for me to play as all the people from the US aren't around when I'm actually awake. Sad really. The most people I ever raced against was 3 others. I'm sure if I played more people I could get higher up, I've only lost 2 out of a couple of hundred or so games, both of which were against Kid A. Wish I could race Adam and TJ too, want to see how good they are.

@MiracleBlaze: Adam's not around atm, but TJ is actively racing worldwide right now
