Topic: Mario Kart 8 - OT

Just ignore him, he was a spammer. lol

Official! (what i know on deluxe so far)

*Fire-Hopping is removed completely!
*Stats to all vehicles changed
*double-items do change strategy

i say more but this may lead to guessing or misinformation... sad to say gold-digging is still problem in online found one player using battle low rooms and dares show off his score in spite of his terrible exploit i hope nintendo fix this with updates soon i am done with the viewing of deluxe now i will see for myself and how i fair with the change i will post back on any other details i may find

Unless you find anything unusual in-game as of late yes?

Is it possible to target only Africa when we play ? maybe with a VPN no ?

@marcgaming

Not that i am very aware of no if fact due to hackers being big problem this may not happen no time soon, so many hidden dangers due to annoying hackers but to avoid some misinformation i will neither confirm or denie this feature.

I would really like new circuits. At least 4 to make an extra cut, or even more it would be cool. new theme circuit zelda, splatoon, metroid, pickmin ...

Is MK8 still active on the Wii U or do I need to buy a switch?

@grizzgolf Still active.

Thanks! I want to buy a switch but Im waiting for my Tax Return but I am in the mood for some Mario Kart

Mario Kart 8 is my favorite Wii U game. Took me until the end of the Wii U to realize this but it's the only game I find consistently fun, and the online is still poppin.

I wouldn't even mind if there was no voice chat in the next Mario Kart but I hope they let us write our own text during the lobby screen with the Miis.

I'm going back to MK8 on the Wii U today while I wait to try and find a switch. I hope its really active.

It's still pretty active in the Worldwide online portion, but regional online only has a couple of players.

@ethanmraz Maybe MK8 online races are cross platform Wii-U & Switch? Which could explain why Wii-U MK8 online racing is still so active.

@WoomyNNYes I’d strongly doubt it’s cross platform. Would Nintendo make you pay a subscription to play mk8 online for switch while keeping it free for Wii u owners.

They're both Nintendo consoles. It's not like cross platform between Playstaion and Nintendo. If the Nintendo consoles have common OS features, and both run MK8, I could see it making sense. You could be right, though

EDIT: Now that I think about it. If Wii-u mk8 online is still active, then it's less incentive to buy a Switch. And Nintendo want's you to buy a Switch. You're probably right.

That was the sickest mario kart game I ever played. Would anyone like to play online sometime?

IDk if anyone still is here but if so can I have some pro tips on how to get better for the tournament this week? my last game was mario kart I used to be really good at in but I just got 8 and i kinda suck so cany anyone out there give me the best pro tips you have, and I know how to press A drift break drift-break so plz help me. (wow I said to much)

@Snatcher

1. Be fast: know the shortcuts, know the tracks (do time trials? try to get toward the top tier of the available time trial ghosts of other players)
2. Use defensive items: always drag a shell, or banana behind the kart to protect from being shot. You can't get 3 star grand prix ratings without doing that, and it applies to online.

have to eat dinner.... I'll be back with set up recommendations if someone else doesn't help.

@Snatcher watch the world records on 150 cc of every track to learn the strats. Make sure you’re not using the steering correction ( it makes shortcuts harder ). Use the best kart combination. Familiarize yourself with how every item works and when you should use them. A lot of it’ll come down to how good you already are and how lucky you get with opponents, items, tracks etc.

@WoomyNNYes thanks so much I use tonoki mario sorry if i spelled that worng.

@snatcher

Heavy weight characters have highest top speed and are harder to bump off a track. I personally like mid-heavy weight characters, Donkey Kong or Waluigi. But you'll see all records are set with heavy weight characters like, bowswer, wario, metal mario, roy, morton. And when you play online, you may notice most people who win often don't use light weight characters.
(If you do 200cc, it's a different strategy, choose light weight charaters like shy guy, because heavies can't turn well in 200cc.)

Always drift. Get those drift boosts. Pasted video to play at amusing time stamp explaining when to drift

EDIT: I'm not sure what setup to tell you to use. I use DK, pipe kart, little rollers wheels(or the Slim wheels) a lot. Standard glider. A lot of that is preference. But the higher handling wheels like little rollers build up drift boosts fastest. And I win a lot with little rollers & slims. You can use wheels with higher top speed, but they don't build up drift boosts as fast, and if you get hit, you're slower to get back up to speed.
