START YOUR ENGINES

put up or shut up
show that you deserved to unlock him by leaving people in the dust instead of being lumped in with the limp-dick faggots who unlocked him for 20 sheckles

Do we know how you unlock him yet?
I can only assume it's after beating all his time trials (races?) or atleast a good amount of them.

>post naughty dog characters are in
>probably even more shit tier post nd designes

I'm not sure about this. Crunch is kinda okay but the rest of them is just straight bad. And don't even get me started with that stupid egg guy

The information we have right now show that he's unlockable for "clearing" adventure mode. Whether that is any% or full clear is ambiguous.
Crunch, Zam, and Zem being unlocked in the same manner indicates that they'll also be for adventure mode progression, which actually fits snugly into a CNK adventure mode (which we've seen the Phenomina homeworld teased already) along with 1 other character unlock to accomodate CNK's 4 gem cups. I'll go out on a limb and guess that the purple CNK cup will be Penta Penguin because shoving Spyro in there seems too "hard" for casuals to unlock.

>CNK adventure mode (which we've seen the Phenomina homeworld teased already)
Hold up what??
I may not have played CTR, but I loved CNK as a kid and I'm ecstatic if I get to see the first hub remade on modern hardware.
I swear the decision to preorder this or tsr is getting harder every day

You are in for quite a treat. The big takeaway that you'll hear regarding the two games is that CNK didn't capture the same magic in its mechanics that CTR did but was still a competent kart racer.

The preorder skins are tempting at least

Yeah that seems to be the general opinion from what I can see too.
...
Now if they can reveal tag team racing tracks
THAT is enough to toss TSR away for a few months
CNK might've been amazing for me, but I played the living hell out of CTTR multiple times (thanks faulty memory cards)

They're a little better. Coco's podium animation for that is fun.

Only the tracks in Tyrannosaurus Wrecks would truly be good in CTR imo, too many straights

Tire & Ice specifically is just textbook CTR track design. Tons of corners to powerslide, only long straight is the ski jump at the end (perfect spot for a super turbo pad).

You're insane if you think they should leave out that one uranus one that is just an oval.
Super boring ik but holy crap that was chaotic fun as a kid, and the music in the back only made it better.

See? You also see the chaotic potential in it as well I assume.

Rings of Uranus is a different track

Wait, all of that special edition stuff is unlockable normally, right?

Aside from a few skins, yes.

Great now I look like a retard.
Well there's proof I wasn't kidding when I said CTTR was a *childhood* game I guess.

All of them are pretty crazy tracks near the end

Hey fuck you I liked Kra- er, N. Trance. Besides he's better at the hypnosis gimmick than Cortex and gets bonus points for being Tropy's friend.

CTR's strength in stage design isn't just from curves and turns, it's from bumps and ramps for you to gain hangtime boosts from so you are constantly on the lookout for good drifting lines as well as opportunities to get jump boosts. This is why CTTR would be painfully mediocre if they were to port into Nitro Fueled; way too many straightaways and not enough places to get any air aside from places where it's mandatory.
The game mechanics aren't even remotely similar so it's a bit of a lost cause to try to correlate them. CNK has way more going for it in terms of raw similarities, but I'd be more on board for CNK tracks than things from any of the Crash mobile kart games, CTTR, or even the scrapped CTR2010 simply because of those mechanics overlaps causing bleedover into the stage design.

>CTR's strength in stage design isn't just from curves and turns, it's from bumps and ramps for you to gain hangtime boosts from so you are constantly on the lookout for good drifting lines as well as opportunities to get jump boosts.
You'd be surprised how many CTTR tracks just have ramps placed in the middle of straights for no reason. Like they were designed for a hangtime turbo system that was cut or something.

Really expected there to be news today

Hopefully CTR will appear.

You know what would blow my top?

>Leaderboard times all have ghost files
>You can load these ghosts not only in Time Trial, but in Arcade
>A full lobby of 8 leaderboard-tier bots using shortcuts, with A.I. controlling their weapon usage so they also place hazards in shortcuts.

THAT would blow my fucking mind.

Are reserves also tied to speed or only boost chains? If I have a good number of reserves will I instantly lose them all if I get hit by a weapon or slam into a wall?

I mostly can't decide. I really lean towards Komodo Joe and N. Tropy but Crash Bandicoot is a series where I genuinely enjoy all the characters

I would really like for Tawna to be in something besides the first game for a change. I think it's time to stop shying away from the challenge of writing her or representing a sexy female character in a series that already has trouble keeping female characters

Reserves are lost if you stop or slow down for any reason at all.
If you're driving fast, you can outpace basically everything except for a warp orb or n. tropy clock. Missiles lock directly onto you so you can easily lead them into a wall or a defensive item dropped behind you. Bombs have a distinct sound effect so you should be swerving if you hear one coming. And you shouldn't be driving predictably enough to get nailed in the head by a beaker thrown forward.
When you have speed, you have speed.

What the hell is this guy even supposed to be?

Something from another dimension.

Fake Crash

Papu's Pyramid or Cortex Castle

It could go either way at this point. So far we haven't seen that yet.

I want the motorcycle as a kart option for crash and his leather jacket and sunglasses as a costume.

Unfortunately the kart animations wouldn't work at all. They wouldn't give it it's own animations or they would've done it with oxide's kart.
The hitbox could be an issue too.
