[:plant:] I Guess We Still Play This Kart 8: 16:17 <+BZ> favorite course: Music Park.

why can't i hold all this music park

Also kinda a bummer about the May date for the 2nd pack, but I will buy this shit ASAP.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

For skills:



Also I haven't been following the announced Mercedes dlc coming tomorrow, but isn't there some sort of Mercedes online cup you can play or something starting tomorrow as well? Maybe that's what one of the icons is for?

Mercedes-Benz cars confirmed for US version of Mario Kart 8 | Ars Technica

Quote:

Once the patch goes live—which, including the Mercedes cars, will be free—players will be able to participate in a "Mercedes Cup" tournament that will run until September 23. No details for the tournament have been announced, which leads us to believe that it will simply be a Mercedes-only option for online races as opposed to a competition backed by real-world prizes.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Are we actually for real doing all shy guys are yoshis? I haven't bought the DLC yet, but I can make a point of doing so if I'm the only one out or anything.

Also Philia, who has still only played this game for like 5 minutes ever and hasn't played Mario Kart in general really, just sat down and is now playing 150cc Grand Prix so she can see this "Music Park" level.

You guys are bad influences.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Eating ice cream right now, so it's all good.

Can any of the good people in here post their exact character/kart builds. Mentioned this in the post-game chat, but I'm often baffled at my placing. I will do a race not fucking up or fucking up only once, hit most of the drifts/ramps with boosts but then finish dead last and not see anyone. I'm less annoyed and more just confused, especially since I know I should be better than that. Also seeing people just blow past me pretty often, moreso then I think is accountable for just with slipstreaming or mushrooms, so I'm wondering if I've just build my kart totally wrong, at least for my current skill level or something.

Philia is pretty hooked now, she's playing solo. She had fun but was pretty unhappy with coming in last most of the time because she didn't know the courses, so she seems to be getting down to it now lol. Also the vertical split screen is complete bullshit, for real real. I could mostly compensate when we were doing the regular courses that I knew most of, but mirror mode kept fucking me.

And everyone wasn't kidding, battle mode is garbage in this game. What were they thinking?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I think it's a bit presumptuous to assume that my expedition to find the road has (or will be) ill-fated.

Philia and I played a bunch of this last night (and today). Literally 30 fucking seconds into the first race the words "divorce game" were said out loud.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I find your lack of Music Park on those screens...disturbing.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

:tails cracking up intensifies:

How ya doing, buddy?

Holy shit why did none of you fuckers tell me that Toad IS THE BEST. He sounds hilarious, and is always just so fucking psyched to even be racing. What sealed the deal was when I saw his boost pad trick where he plays peek-a-aboo, I lost my goddamn mind the first time I saw it in slo-mo. It still randomly cracks me up 2 days later, still trying to find a gif of it or something. His speed is obviously kind of shit, so I go for maximum hilarity and use the airship with him which has terrible speed but has insane acceleration and handling. I actually seem to do alright with it, playing online with randoms I usually get top 2 or 3 with it. I don't expect to be pulling out 1st place finishes with it, but it's so funny to me I don't even care.

All that aside, is anyone going to be on this weekend? I'm going to be going in hard on Destiny, but I can make time for this on Saturday if folks are actually going to be around. Me and Philia are playing this on almost a daily basis and getting better. The salt that comes from both of us playing it when it's not with you guys is hilarious. Maximum Divorce Game.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Okay, I'll make a point of getting on. I'll set an alarm, you may need to remind me as well though Tails since I'm 100% sure I'm going to be in a Destiny group at that point. I'm pretty sure Philia will be home in time for it as well.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Literally the only thing stopping me from 3-starring everything is Music Park on 150cc, the computer has outright fucked me in ways that were impossible to get out of on the last lap 4 times in a row now. The irony does not escape me.

Most amazing jew boots

We'll be on but just maybe 5-10 minutes late.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Oh boo, you guys are full? How did we go from no one being on because of Destiny to being full . We're out then, I bailed on people I was playing Destiny with to get on, our fault for being late.

FELIPE NO

If the room was full how would that work? I had the same problem. I also messaged fox on skype with no response. I think he hates me

Damn, I would have gotten on. I had been led to believe it wasn't happening this weekend due to people being gone and Smash coming out. Speaking of which, is Smash a thing for you guys or what? I have a rental of it on the way because I had a free slot open at Gamefly and a window here with nothing else coming out, but Smash has never really been my thing. I loved the ridiculous story mode in Brawl (and it's exclusion in this one took the game completely off my radar), but I have played a total of about 8 hours across all Smash games in my life.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'll make a point of being around next week then, I'm all about getting some Theatrhythm in if nothing else. Just curious if Smash was catching on with you guys, seems like people mostly love it, but seeing hilariously inconsistent reports about the online being either awesome or total shit. I figure I'll just mess around with it for a day and send it back probably.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Note that my participation for the next few weeks may or may not happen. I'll be at home and have my Wii U with me this coming weekend and the 25th, but I might be busy with family/friends. The 18th for sure I won't be around, since Kart runs at the same time as the Miku concert.

I wasn't home at the time. I probably could have gotten on late maybe, but again I'd been led to believe it wasn't happening and neither you or Skills texted me. Chumping so hard over here

I can't make this weekend, just found out I'm being dragged to a wedding in Richmond or somewhere around there. If anyone wants to play Theatrhythm during the week or whenever let me know in that thread though, if I'm not at work or asleep I'm generally down for it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Was out of town as previously mentioned, Tails were you able to represent Team Daisy?

I should be clear for next weekend barring anything unforeseen. God help me the weekend after that though.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

This happening today?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Figures!

(I assumed so, but the thread was deader than usual this week and I know at least Tails is out of town, so figured I would ask to make sure)

A disturbing amount of Karting today revolved around discussing Moo's package.

FELIPE NO

It's cool, I got it

How ya doing, buddy?

Too busy looking for the road, don't have time for math.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

AW SHIT

Edit: Realized that this will probably hit at like the same time or just after Smash. Well fuck.
