rank because sakurai is a dumb dumb and lag because they just screwed it up big time with some programming or something and will never put out what is probably a simple fix to get rid of that lag but nintendo never patches anything so good luck hoping for that
yeah its definitely more difficult to do and you cant do it everywhere like you could in mkds but its doable in many places if you have the right kart
also i dont know how effective it actually is yet
and if you hold the direction youre turning and lean into the drift you get the boost a lot faster
also i know ive posted about it already but this online interface is really saving this game for me
i just joined a random race and am now watching the people im playing with in their current race with some nice bgm
also if youre playing with friends and wanna make sure no one is silly and trys to snake make everyone play with the wiimote
its really not all that terrible i just played with it for a little but i wouldnt play AI with it because AI is just stupid and you need to boost as much as you can
ok well a definite positive thing i just played my first online match
a random worldwide match
it shows the mii name and location of everyone youre gonna play OH MAN NOT ANON I MIGHT GO RAPE THEM
it was a 10 player race with most people from japan and a couple from spain
there was absolutely
get this
i am so happy
NO LAG
no stupid button input lag no choppiness NOTHING
no one just appeared in front of me out of nowhere but i guess playing more will verify that and stuff
also you have a rank YAY
its not a win loss rank its a points rank so if you lose you lose points but can just play more and win some and get them back and no one would ever know
ok well im actually playing it not talking about some interview or something and am incredibly pissed off so had to post about it
also yeah cpu has been pissing me off with items, ive been getting hit with way too much crap
ok guys
like im gonna cry
this game has absolutely THE WORST BATTLE MODE EVER
you can only do it 6 on 6 teams NO FREE FOR ALL
and if you dont have 12 people it fills everything else with computers EDIT: ok you can turn cpus off but its still awful
you dont die when you lose all 3 balloons you just come back
its 3 minute timed and the team with the most hits wins
it is a JOKE
also yeah you can break and go reverse just hit the drift button but dont hold a direction
