THIS GAME IS WAY TOO HARD

For most kart games, yes.
For CTR, this is super important.
DON'T use analogs to play CTR, use the d-pad.
It has something to do with the game requiring you to do sharp turns all the time and the time you're losing turning with an analog is likely to make you grind a wall and in this game even slightly touching a wall will kill your momentum completely.

Basically it's complicated but trust me, use the goddamn d-pad.

On a PlayStation controller if you want to be gud then you should be using the D pad. Using an analog stick for the original was always the inferior option.
However I've been playing the Switch version for the past week and the analog is fine there.

Me, initially.
My first hour with the game I absolutely hated it. I'm getting used to it now but I do miss the turns I used to be able to make with Speed characters without touching the brake but instead drifting sharply.

I don't understand how unlocking N.Tropy works. What exactly prompts his ghosts to show up?

It's because the analog on the switch has less travel time.
But even there, i'd recommend a third party cross analog.

Better stick to Forza Horizon 4 then, bud.

WOULD YOU CALL IT
THE SEKIRO OF RACING?

FH4 has very inconsistent difficulty.

Some races (particularly in the Dirt series) are very easy but setup your car the wrong way (read: use race tires) and suddenly the cars leading the pack are almost impossible to catch.

Took me a couple of hours to get used to it too. Now I'm loving it. Speed characters are dead though. Balanced characters are the new king, assuming the stats displayed in the UI are right.

>going to a dirt race with slick tarmac tires
GEE BILLY, I WONDER WHY YOU CANT TOUCH THE PACK

Race tires on tarmac races, retard.

Isn't it just beating the top AI time on the scoreboard? The ghost will then show up but you have to manually enable it after track selection. It won't just automatically be there like in the original.

I feel like Speed was sacrificed to make everyone else better. They're still good but require more complicated inputs with more chances to fuck up on something everyone else can blaze through.

Hard mode is fucking bullshit
T: fully beat the original several times

you just suck at it and are probably gay

Turning when drifting feels strange and not the same as original
Anyone else?

I took me over an hour to beat Oxide on hard. It's like I'm a kid again playing the original.

Nah i got platinum relics and beat oxide in all tracks when i was 7, also replayed it in 2013 and did the same

Is anyone else getting online lobbies freezing most of the time? I can barely get a match going.

can confirm
t. emulates crash everyday

Speed characters are really fucking strong because of the improved U-turning

nope you are confirmed gay

yep they need to completely fix online

DONT listen to those guys, use the analog stick, its waaay better
me ? im using the dpad, because im an idiot and i dont want to win in online racing

>speed characters are dead
>just beat Oxide on all tracks
>as Tiny (and one or two tracks as Coco)
mate, first hour was hard for me too, but now i feel like a fucking god in online mode with my bro N Tropy

Is it enough to make up for the fact that you constantly have to handbrake turn where other characters will just turboslide through?

I can't even imagine getting above blue on time trials. I'm barely getting these too. Just fuck my shit up.

Playing the original is the problem. Your muscle memory and idea of how things should be is messing with your adaptability. It's messing with mine as well. I'm not styling through these levels like I used to.

Okay now I'm worried I bit off more than I can chew with this game.

>Don't fucking ignore the fruits, always max out on them.
i just started to play
What fruits for? i thought they supposed to be used as currency and didnt pay attention.

Im playing on easy too and never seen any other racers in front of me. i guess im too good for EASY MODE heh

I think it depends a lot on the track now. Used to be speed characters were the best for the vast majority of tracks, but now they feel like they're the best characters for just a handful of tracks.

Hard mode is actually insane. I'm a CTR veteran who has played the original for more than 10 years and it took me like 30 attempt to get the CTR token from Crash Cove on hard. The lead that you're forced to give your opponents when picking up the T from the bridge pretty much guarantees that you can't win unless you get godly RNG with your power-ups. I was willing to struggle through the hard mode but then I got to the first crystal collecting challenge and the time limit was like 30 second lower than what it normally is. Changed to classic adventure mode at that moment without any shame. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the hard mode was nerfed with a patch, it's stupid hard.

>What fruits for?
At 10, all your weapons will become better.
And the more you have, the faster you get (maxes at 10, obv).

It doesn't matter since U-turning doesn't take reserves now, you can keep USF up fine. Speed characters can keep sliding better on straighter parts

Wumpa Fruit when maxed out slightly raise your speed and upgrade your weapons to better versions.

it's really not that hard

Wait there's a difference? This is my first time playing any CTR so either way I'm going in fresh.

I never played CTR before (despite the game being in my collection) so that doesn't apply.

Why is Coco such an Instagram thot now?

>At 10, all your weapons will become better.
>And the more you have, the faster you get (maxes at 10, obv).
lol what the fuck
this is a weird way to improve gameplay... Okay then i wont miss any of them

>the first crystal collecting challenge and the time limit was like 30 second lower than what it normally is
Fuck that shit. God damn.

>that oxide edition skin winning animation
I hope you fags didn't jew out on this

Does it not raise your speed? I'm pretty sure the loading screens said so.

she was that even before smartphones were a thing

I really dislike that you can't start building reserves until you've turboed a perfect over a turbo pad. This is a serious downgrade from the original. Just means that going fast is limited to your distance from the next turbo pad if you fuck up, with chaining powerslides not really being a massive speed increase as it used to be.

Albeit I've mostly gotten the hang of it and now even making a massive gap over hard difficulty is no sweat

Attached: temple.webm (747x420, 2.77M)

U-turning does however have an opportunity cost. If you have to U-turn through enough corners in a row you won't be able to turboslide enough which will cost you reserves.

I'm pretty sure you can still build reserves without going over a turbo pad. You just won't get SF.

So I'm stuck between buying this game on the Switch or the PS4 and I'm not sure what to get it for.
Does anyone know if the graphical/performance differences are noticeable and if I can use my gamecube controllers with the Switch version?
If the switch port is shit and I can't use my controllers I'll probably get the ps4 version desu

I always seem to drop out of whatever you call that turbo before sf very quickly if I stop chaining turbos before reaching a turbo pad.

Holy hell this looks fun as fuck. Is the remake the way to go or should I try the PSX release instead? Any specific console version to get?

Attached: fast.jpg (640x480, 61K)

I don't think it lasted very long in the original either but honestly I don't have a perfect memory of it so I don't want to be too assertive.

get the ps4 version, i think loading times are bit quicker, looks visually better and the playerbase will probably stay stronger than on switch

I haven't played Nitro Kart tracks yet so I don't know about those, but you can keep USF throughout the course with speed chars in every OG USF map (although it's pretty difficult in Cortex Castle and Oxide Station)

most of the time the reason for losing sf is not getting a perfect boost
quick boosts dont fuel the blue flame, learned it the hard way doing time trials against Oxide

Alright. Maybe I'll need to give them another chance. I switched to balance characters because I had trouble with even the simplest corners that used to be very easy with speed chars.

so how do you guys like the switch version?

How does it work now? You have to chain your boost after turbo pad?

cortex castle is near impossible because of those 3 hard turns after that spider
even when breaking mid air, its hard

>avoiding the missile by jumping
amazing

The remake is where the community is as it has multiplayer and a lot more content (it includes a bunch of remade characters and tracks from some of the old sequels)
Plus they retained the vast majority of the originals fine-tuned mechanics.
Some people say the original had slightly tighter controls but I'm not good enough to notice.

That said you can emulate the original for free to see if you like it

Attached: N_Sane_Fake_Crash.jpg (1280x720, 71K)

Doesn't USF give equal speed regardless of character? So for USF tracks acceleration or balanced would probably still be best.

Same here but without racing and Pinstripe.

Play the remake and learn it's physics. The original will mess you up transferring to this game.

If you want online multiplayer then go for the remake. If you just want a single player experience then play the original, the remake is much less forgiving and the original is much tighter physics and gameplay wise.

I'd say play both though, I've played the original for 19 years now and I'm starting to warm up to the remake after a couple of hours, it's okay. But the physics are definitely not 1:1, which is the more impressive thing about the original.

Runs fine and looks fine. Online is broken as fuck though.

only difference is you can customize and change characters in nitro fueled.

The PS1 version is super fine (some say arguably better, I think the art direction is more solid, and while it's not terrible, some music tracks definitely got a downgrade in the remake) if you just want to try it out. If you love it, you can get the remake. There are not many differences between PS4 and Switch besides graphx, but Switch has longer loading times for some stuff (less RAM).

Second jump over the lava on the far right, very hard to see as it's blending in with the background

No, at least in original game characters had different max speeds during both SF and USF. There was a chart floating around by some french CTR autists that listed all the max speeds for different characters but I can't find it

My god, this really brings back the memories. Can't fucking wait to play this again. I've always maintained that CTR is better than MK just on the drifting alone. It's so much more satisfying once you get the hang of it.

are there lobbies, or is it just matchmaking at the moment?

Can you change the difficulty of your campaign or do you need to start again?

Because picking Hard straight away was a fucking mistake

>thought I was pretty decent a kart racers
>can't beat the second fucking race on medium

What the fuck is wrong with me. Am I just missing a mechanic or something? Also I'm shit at drifting, I'm used to mk8's instantaneous drift and the hop is fucking me up

You can hold USF indefinitely in the remake so N.Gin Labs is even faster. You can make it literally all USF. Even the long warp tunnel gives USF now. The only real problem with the physics is that they've fucked up big time with collision on sloped surfaces like Sewer Speedway pipe walls.

Unless you want to argue that holding USF forever is a bad thing, in which case... well, it wasn't like that in the original, so fair enough, but I think it makes the game more fun.

More like CTR: Not Fun.

Ctr original is easier to play than the remake
My guess is after the dark souls of platforms fluke of N.sane trilogy Activision told beenox to make the game harder so they might get another free publicity sales boost

I haven't played the original in 16 years so it's pretty much a fresh start for me. Playing on normal and it seems pretty fair, though I can't get even gold relics for now. Well not that I've actually tried.
Haven't played online yet because I just know it's full of veterans meanwhile I still hit walls most of the time

Attached: comfhomer.jpg (1242x1235, 180K)

Yeah holding USF is great and all but the walls are killer and sliding seems to be less controllable than it was in the original. The radius of sliding in the remake seems to expand slightly over 2 seconds or so till it reaches it limit whereas it was constant in the original.

Never mind, you're right, I found the chart and USF is the same for everyone. Still, fast characters will be theoretically better because of faster first lap

Day 1 update finally hitting. Hopefully this fixes online.

blessed trips

I'd argue those are a matter of getting used to, but they sure annoyed me too. Some people keep arguing that the walls eating your speed was like that in the original, but I swear it wasn't nearly that bad.

The mechanics are tweaked just enough to through veterans off really hard. It's pretty much an even playing field.

When you start drifting left or right you can push the dpad in either direction to continue affecting the direction of the drift
i.e drifting left while holding left will make your turning radius tighter, holding right will loosen it

You gotta hit it absolutely dead on. This means that you generally have to take a different line to enter it. In the original I would kinda slide along the edge of the half pipe on the left and go in at an angle, but in the remake I have to go over the top of the flat portion on the left side in order to enter at a 90° angle.

>Not using the vanilla characters and dabbing on everyone online

Seeing how Coco's head always turns a little to the left in this gif makes me believe it was drawn from the head instead of being drawn on top of a 3D model reference which would be pretty impressive.

hmm gonna try that next time.

So playing as a speed character in nitrofueled and looking at the old webms, I think the biggest factor has to be the hop nerf in nitro fueled. I noticed jumping let's you make those hard turns where you couldn't powerslide on time, and boosting during a powerslide makes you handle far better on turns. The hop can't be spammed but its greater air control let's you just zip around, but not at the pace of the original since hops look like they take way longer to finish.

it was drawn freehand, kempfer is a very consistent and impressive artist

Well damn...

The speed is important I feel and jumping at the right time. You can do it in the original without any kind of speed boost just jumping at exactly the right time but here I feel you need SF from the earlier turbo pad plus the perfect jump. Like 30% of the time I get it now.

How is the Switch version far as controls, loading, and performance?

People aren't used to a Kart game on Easy requiring them to at least have some familiarity of the track and mechanics to get first reliably.

This is why I don't like to play with over 2 players, constant masks / warp orbs / clocks

It's an anti-reset race. Took me about an hour to do, I had a perfect lap one against him and he was on my ass the entire time and once he took over me I lost.

Crash Cove is probably the hardest stage of all. Lack of turbo pads, no meaningful short cuts, extremely short map, with AI that's just faster it's a recipe for disaster. Even snaking is a lot tricker in the remake so you can't fully rely on it.

tried it, I believe it's one of those games you have to obsess yourself over to git gud, too bad because everything about it it's cool as fug and I thought it would have been a RELAXING experience, it's the whole contrary, I envy those with autism topping races online, guess I'll stick to GT Sport, this is too much, it's a game you have to be devoted for life to, so you have to choose

Never played before and I already loved it before I knew what I was doing. Couple hours in and Medium difficulty isn't too nuts. While the muscle memory isn't there, playing a lot of Mario Kart DS and DD taught me to be greedy with my drift boosts, and that mindset in moderation is definitely helping.

Still not sure whether snaking is a thing at higher levels, feels like I could be doing something more on straightaways. Doesn't need to be or anything, though, this is already better than Mario Kart, you sonyfags weren't whistling dixie.

>Can't play cups online, no custom public lobbies
>No online leaderboards for time trials

Otherwise great game, if these were fixed it would be 10/10

i'll prove this with airplane mode, brb

No cups is fucking weird. Was it really that difficult to implement a few races in a row to lobbies

Noob here who's been maining Dingodile, timing my jumps right has been plenty for the most part. The only turn that absolutely fucks me so far is that helix in Dragon Mine.

That said, I gotta wonder if other characters can actually drift and boost around those turns just fine. That might break the deal, unless the speed difference is really substantial.

Wrong, the original has tighter controls and slightly better physics.
But it's not a N. Sane Trilogy situation, this remake stands on it's own and has many improvements.

I've matched with some pretty skilled players, on the other hand plenty of noobs

You'll be playing this game with people that played non stop from when CTR was released, pulling off shit like THIS:
So yea, you'll get absolutely destroyed.

I haven't played the original for years and I'm still coming 1st/2nd most games somehow

god sewer speedway tunnels are fucked compared to what I'm used to

It's just skins user, if you like them, buy them

yeah, it's just a bit less forgiving, hard mode for Bloodborne Kart

so online play works now?

the problem with crash is that online will be dead when it comes to PC

you'll eventually buy it.

I am having too much fun watching some basedchugging zoomer play the game. Most watched CTR streamer on Twitch right now. It's really interesting to watch someone who has never played the game constantly learn and get better. My money is still on them ragequitting.

I mean, Bloodborne runs at 30 fps and is hilariously better than Dark Souls 3 which runs at 60. Anything between 25-60 fps is perfectly good, as long as it's consistent.

judging by streams of firsttime players, you should be at about that level after beating adventure mode on medium difficulty, no guarantees though

Nigger I don't even know who it is because I don't watch other people play video games.

adventure mode won't teach you to still slide when going straight forward, which I think is where most people are going wrong

you got speed, accel, turning and balance characters. so you can just pick the character you like the best in the class you do best in

best is speed, obv.

I don't wanna go through all that troubles, the store refresh quite frequently

guys with max accelerate, or balanced stats

The boost mechanic in CNK is much better, maybe it's because the road in some tracks it's more wider than in CTR. I played a lot of CNK where I ended some tracks having 200+ boosts.

as long as coin earnings are locked server side, a glitch would be huge since it's a fuck up on their end. otherwise m8 you can just play lots of attempts at a stage to get gud, it all adds up.

Do you recommend it to play on Normal or even Easy then until I master the game? I played CTR back in the day but I didn't replay it for a long long while unlike many others, there's a trophy tied to finishing adventure mode on Hard so I guess eventually I will have to get to it.

I'm new to the game and normal is just fine, I'm only having mild trouble with the crystal challenges

Easy is too easy, even a beginner is probably much better off playing on Normal

Hard mode will require a good drifting skills, i suggest doing some time trials for uninterrupted training sessions

imagine being bad at a kid's game

How long do we have to wait

Normal will still give you the challenge, especially for beginners. Easy is braindead AI mode. Even veterans are getting stumped on Hard so pass on that til you understand the core mechanics and how to properly win a race.

Cope.

Because Super Meat Boy and Dark Souls were both presented as being "too hard 4 u" games so reviewers thought everyone was supposed to be bad at the game. CTR was just advertised as a fun kart racer.
