git gud

I beat the Oxide time for this tonight and I can attest that it's a bitch to get consistently. You want to jump off the left of the half-pipe first because you're going to need the momentum from landing, and then approach the ramp below the shortcut as straight on as possible. If you try to drive up the ramp and jump from an angle there's no chance of you gaining enough height to make it. Don't jump too late either or you'll hit the floor of the opening as you're ascending. Good luck user!

Probably because the OP was porn and everyone was talking about sex instead of video games

now i see how easy was classic
I win easy 9+ sec vs him just shoot rocket when he is near jump speed boost

I main Tiny

So is it only worthwhile to race online during weekends? Really not liking this small amount of wumpa coins for each race

This but don't hop off the side of the pipe, just drive straight towards the shortcut.
Worked for me most of the time. Just watch out for the barrels on the final lap, they've killed my runs stone dead before.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm not enjoying it.
I waited months for this, and the gameplay is excellent. But the Wumpa Coin drops are really pissing me off. I have no interest in playing online, but I practically have to in order to get more than peanuts after each race.
The problem is online play is fucking broken. I can't count how many times I've been hit by invisible bombs and beakers. I got hit by three warp orbs in one lap of Electron Avenue. I once started a race on Polar Pass, and it just... never happened. I was stuck on the screen before the race starts. It's so fucking broken and unbalanced.
After much frustration, and the 2000 coins I got for preordering it, I have every Pit Stop character but N. Trance unlocked. Guess what, though? N. Trance was the only fucking character I actually wanted to play from the Pit Stop, and he's locked behind an expensive as fuck bundle that I'll never be able to buy because it takes forever to make even 1000 coins if I don't play the broken, unfun online mode.
It's getting to the point where I'm getting constantly frustrated at the fuckups Activision is pushing on this game every time I play it. I've decided I'm not playing CTR anymore until they either fix Wumpa Coins in offline play, fix online mode, or both.

Shitposting aside, he's right that some things could be improved upon for online. Honestly right now I'm just thrilled that we dodged a bullet and got a pretty damn good remake out of the deal, it could've been much worse and it would have been in the same shitbin as TSR.

saving this copypasta

Am I the only one finding the shortcut much more difficult with speed characters? I can't seem to make it without using halfpipe shenanigans. Had the same issue in the original CTR when I was playing it a few weeks ago and ended up just using Pinstripe for Oxide's ghost into of Dingo.

>implying he's wrong

imagine a kart racer that doesn't run at 60 fps lmao

if anything i'm moreso mocking the fact that this game with pretty tight gameplay and a satisfying difficulty to overcome is being heavily criticized for how long it takes to get entirely optional cosmetics. it's like he's playing the game for the sole purpose of having everything unlocked, and not because he finds the game itself enjoyable. the online issue of the match never starting is bad, but getting fucked by items is literally day 1 of kart racing games.
tldr; stfu

You still get the X5 multiplier on week days. Until you hit the daily soft cap of course

HOW DID I ONLY FIND THIS TODAY? That was the only thing that was missing for me.

I was enjoying it until my save got corrupted cos the game is poorly made. Luckily I decided to carry on, restart everything and then got 101% and beat 25 of the time trials. Then my game crashed and corrupted my save again.
So I said fuck it I won't bother with unlocks. I went online and caused everyone in the lobby to DNF 5 times before they all left.
I then joined another lobby and we chose Dingo Canyon. I overlapped 2 people and then 3 blue orbs were shot withing a span of 5 secs. Came first, closed the game and pretended I never wasted my money on this pile of shit.

>optional cosmetics
I don't care about the cosmetics you retard, I care about the fact that half the content that was advertised is locked behind an online store with online currency despite being on the damn disk, and the fact that it takes forever to unlock any of it. And then, if I finally save up 7200 coins just so I can play one fucking character, turns out the bundle just isn't available on that day. Why the fuck is the Pit Stop online and rotational if the content we unlock is on the disk?
>i-i-it's optional, guys!
So the fuck what? Half of the characters in this game are locked behind it, and it takes fucking forever to get any of them, even though they easily could've made you unlock them through in-game activities like the original CTR characters. I'm heavily criticizing the game because half of the marketing for this game relied on how much customization was in it, and how many unique options we had for every player, but that turned out to be a fucking joke because if you want literally anything more than the base roster and shitty recolors, you have to grind for entire days, or use the broken online. And you're stupid if you think the online play isn't broken. The items are completely unbalanced as opposed to offline play, I can't go a single race without getting Warp Orbs and Clocks out the ass, and getting hit by invisible items.
You're blindly defending shitty business practices from a shitty, money-grubbing company, because the game it's happening in is Crash Team Racing. They're going to put microtransactions in a 40 dollar game and you're going to defend it because it's a crime to insult The Best Kart Racer Ever.

yeah items being invisible in a kart racing game isn't a solid complaint from him

Wait what? How do I avoid this?

>getting hit by a warp orb on Electron avenue
>not just outrunning it with infinite USF

Sounds like someone just needs to git gud

Well first question is: Do you have this on Switch or Xbox? Cause from what I've heard owners of those versions haven't encountered the corruption bug. In fact it's probably non-existent there.

I mean I agree with the fact that the store being rotational is stupid, I thought it was just gonna be a big-ass store where you can buy stuff at your own pace. Also locking all the CNK characters behind it is a ...bold decision to say at least.

..but the worst part is that if you're on the Switch and aren't connected to a Wifi you just flat out don't earn any wumpa coins. So playing on the go means you don't get the currency and you need to be online to even access the Pit Stop.
Pretty stupid and a bit too close to the F2P model of games. I was not expecting this.

Ranked online is for faggots. You can play well one race and suck dick in another, and no track record will make anyone a better player.

Well not mine, played it yesterday and found matches all the time and no lag or anything

I don't think anything is leaving the store rotation permanently. Just play the game as you normally would and get the things you want. Cosmetics don't mean much if you're playing offline anyway.

Get all the boxes. It's the only way.

It's some serious fucking bullshit user, always has been. I actually expected Beenox to add a full 10 seconds or so to the time to make it easier, but nope, they kept it as is. At least using the USF is a bit easier now.
I think the best way to handle the boxes at the end is to get them all in lap one so that you don't have to slow down at all in lap 2, that's what I did in the run I finally got the plat at least. Other than that, it's just self-explanatory, though extremely hard - you need to play almost perfectly.

Hard mode races are more difficult than Tropy ghosts for the most part. Only done like two Oxides so can't speak for that though.

>ctrl+f

This exact same thing happened to me, why can't you jump directly to that turbo pad anymore?

You'll be fine. The relics are more bullshit than time trials. Just haul ass and burn rubber.

You're shitting me, right? I just got a copy from gamefly today and I haven't played it yet, but if that's true I'm just going to send this shit back.

I've noticed going too fast throws you farther but not as high when attempting the shortcut. But I always play the game with my boy Fake Crash anyway.

Yeah it's 30FPS, just like the PS1 was.

If you were European the ps1 version was 25fps so it's an upgrade

Imagine having this kind of mentality

It feels like they nerfed the low grav on that track

What do I need for that 101%? 100% pleb here.

Damn that's why it feels so smooth.

Racing games should be at least 60FPS. Sorry if I have standards, consolefriend.

Gold relics

Gold relics or better. Doing so gives you a gold paintjob, and going above and beyond will get you a platinum paintjob

See if my run helps you at all:

It's one of the two hardest platinum relics in the game for sure along with Papu's Pyramid.

I'm worried about my save being corrupted. Apparently that glitch happens most often in time trials.

There's no way to tell any difference

DO NOT TIME TRIAL RETRO TURBO, IT CORRUPTS SAVE DATA AFTER FINISHING WITH TROPY GHOSTS

I got through fine but I backed up my saves just in case. Just do the same.

Wow, what a great exclusive feature! not only the track is hideous and lazy now also destroys your progress.

Was just about to bring this up.
twitter.com/TheWumpaGem/status/1143517733914632192

To sum up (an admittedly small post:
-It IS time trials screwing things up.
-And it is a PS4 only issue, because as the post stated, the game will fail to recognize that it has to hold records for 32 tracks and not 31.
-This is because of the Retro Stadium Track that's exclusive to that version of the game.

Attached: Crash_Nitro_Kart_N._Tropy's_Clock.png (61x61, 3K)

Personally my save got corrupted the second I beat Oxide's ghost in sewer speedway. I made it through the retro turbo track without it corrupting.

retro turbo triggers the bug but doesn't corrupt the save unless it's the last ghost you beat

>he says while he purchases remasters on his PS4 to play them at 60fps

hypocrite

No it doesn't. Your save file MIGHT get corrupted if you have bad luck and it could happen anywhere really. People have had their saves corrupted both in adventure mode and in time trials. I've cleared adventure mode 101% and beaten all of Oxide's ghosts without corruptions and so have other people so it's not guaranteed in any way.

Amazing, 5 minutes ago it was terrifyingly random and now it makes perfect sense, thanks user

It's not Retro Stadium itself that's the issue, by default the game only recognizes the record for the 31 tracks that are in the base game. Because of this, if you already did Retro Stadium and saved a normal track for last, then it will still trigger the save corruption.

I think I've finally nailed the technique for the Sewer Speedway shortcut. It seems so unintuitive in this version, I'm still mad that they botched one of the best tracks.

Other than grinding coins it's going good.

i dont have an online subscription. Can I still enjoy the game without playing online?

>this exact same bug might come to haunt us when new tracks are added
Better finish your time trials before July 3 boys.

yes
online is garbage anyways so I wouldn't bother with it

You don't need an Online subscription for stuff like the Pit Stop, or collecting Coins.

It's just playing online will give you more coins than playing the single player modes.

>make a reskin of a notoriously shitty track

Is there a list out there for what characters are best for what track

just bought this game today, but the last and only time i played ctr was the demo in spyro 2, which i don't remember anything from, what am i in for?

Attached: whoat is this shit.png (500x500, 27K)

is the Nitros Oxide edition worth the additional $20?

This is something pretty gay I've noticed about the game. The collision for the walls extend out to the farthest part of the wall, in this case the little rail along the ground. The same thing happens in Papu's Pyramid when you're going up the pyramid.

was that the last time trial you completed?

You can adapt to character classes you're used to in a lot of cases, but generally speed characters excel in wide tracks where you can do a lot of straight line drifting, handling is better for stuff like Tiny Arena or anything with lots of sharp turns.
Just experiment what works for you.

use speed characters, only speed

this happened to me in the middle of that same fucking turbo pad

Kart Souls

Nostalgia pandering trash.
>30fps
l o l faggots

It depends. The only thing you're getting from that edition are Exclusive Star Skins for Crash, Coco, Cortex and Oxide.

You'll also be getting an early unlock for Crunch, Oxide, Zem, Zam and Oxide's Hovercraft, which can be obtained in the standard editions.

So for the most part it's purely cosmetic stuff. If you like that, then go for it.

No

From memory, crash cove, roos tubes, mystery caves, sewer speedway, blizzard bluff, inferno islands, tiger temple, coco park and dingo canyon are all the tracks speed karts do best in. You could use them in hot air skyway, papu's pyramid and electron avenue among other maps if you're good at U turning and approaching turns near perfectly.
Use all rounded types for everything else.

An addictive game

God these crystal collecting challenges are awful. I'm only playing them for the trophy but this is fucking suffering. I'm playing them on easy get I can just barely complete them, not to mention they're annoying as hell. Whoever came up with these challenges should be shot. Nobody even plays these for fun so what's the point?

It's a good racing game but it faces the same problem as with fighting games. There is no such thing as a casual game with friends. You need to invest time to get good or you simply won't have fun.

Whoops forgot to mention speed karts also do good in deep sea driving.

I’m having a blast but these relic races are kicking my ass.

Boost counter when?

they are all easy except N Gin Labs and Papus Pyramid until you know that on one lap you need to cut the last turn by jumping over the gap right after the 2 plants

Man expecting me to keep Blue Fire for that long on Tiny Temple when it keeps dropping for no reason was really cool Beenox

Attached: dfggfdfg.jpg (107x104, 5K)

what's the soft cap?

I take that shortcut for the last 2 laps of the relic race. Grab those 3 "3" boxes from the turn and never go back.

>for no reason
you're not perfect boosting enough

Check if the code works, it was
Hold L1+R1 and Press Triangle, Down (x2), Circle, Up
in the PS1 version.

do you grab all the other boxes at the last turn, like the 1 and 2 then the 3 off the side and the 1 before the drop

BEENOX

Attached: how did i lose.webm (1280x720, 2.92M)

I've had situations where I would land after the initial ramp and lose it straight away. Also after the first turn on the new lap doing the same 2 boost into hop into slide it would sometimes drop and sometimes not. I really don't want to go back and do Oxide times.

30fps vs 60fps is extremely noticeable, and 30fps is not excusable for a racing game. I thought this was supposed to be "remastered"? Can't believe people still give Activision their money.

That's true in every game that isnt a party game.
Getting casuals to learn a game fast is hard, so just screw the leaders over randomly or make it so their skill doesnt really mean much in the first place

Nah I just grab the 3's and never look back. I really don't mind missing the 1 second time boxes.

finally ngin labs plat done

>I've had situations where I would land after the initial ramp and lose it straight away
That happens to me too but I find it's because I lost my reserves doing something stupid like hitting a wall or fucking up a drift that results in me losing all reserves.

I heard 5000, 4000 and even 3000. Nobody knows.

You got destroyed by ping son.

He tried to find a common factor on which to base the argument, you refused and said the online is fucked, to which he countered with the oh-so-obvious "works on my machine" which, like it or not, is still an argument. Because it works. At least on his machine. He can't delve deeper into it because he does not experience the aforementioned problem.

You need to get every box for platinum relics pretty much
get them, also makes golds easier as it knocks of 10 seconds if you get them all

and what's the point of that discussion then?
It is then a fact that online is fucked for some people and not for others.
I, for example, have had issues with invisible beakers and bombs which were 10 meters away from me going in another direction hitting me.
Literally what's the point of saying "works on my machine"? Am I or that other guy playing the game incorrectly and that's why we have invisible beakers or constant desync in terms on 1st place?

What is that code for?

Oh yeah, probably should have mentioned i'm talking about gold times lmao. I absolutely cannot get plat on papu's pyramid without getting all the boxes.

In the original there was a code you could put in at the main menu that counts your consecutive boosts like in nitro kart.

Already tried it, does nothing unfortunately.

They better include challenges with it. Something for chaining 50 in a row, another for 100 and another for 150.

Why does N. Trance look so much like unmasked Darth Vader in that costume? Combine that with the black hovercraft and I'm honestly getting a lot of Vader vibes from that. Might have to start using the same setup, looks really cool (not to mention that I hardly see any N. Trances online, probably because he's so expensive being a part of that summer set).

even getting gold is easier if you get all the boxes on it
the only thing that slows you down on papus is the two boxes before and after the plants
of which the one after can be gotten when you fall from above and the one before you just need to go slow a bit to turn away quickly

FUCKING ACTICUNTS BRING THIS TO PC SO I CAN PLAY AT 60FPS!

Didn't read your post just wanted call you a retard

Are the "illegal" shortcuts still present in this game?

Does it work?

Fellas, what's the point of skins on characters having different victory animations if you can't even have Cup races online? And there are no victory animations online either.

One thing that they better include in the PC port is a good anti-cheat measure. Or online will be dead very quickly. And god forbid I see faggots getting 0:01 on time trial. I'll hunt these cheaters down and gouge out their eyes.

some are some arent

I've actually pulled off the rail jump on blizzard buff before, but I don't think anything other illegal cut is in.

If this is about the Papu "shortcut" or the Oxide Station shortcut, then sorry buddy, they actually fixed it. So they've been removed.

Which honestly sucks really. Could've really used it for Oxide Station's Time Trial.

PC VERSION WHEN REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

that's exactly why i use him
i've been wanting to get the trikee kart though, kinda tired of the hovercraft
also the electron team cortex paintjob and wheels for that nice futuristic black and red look

Can anyone else not unlock shit from the pit stop?

I've heard that if you use illegal shortcuts online, you get banned

this looks so damn fun. too bad I know nothing about crash and just want the new mario kart.

You get to be able to hold USF indefinitely, something that wasn't possible on the original.

The Oxide ghost on Dragon Mines was by far the most challenging so far. Am I going to run into any other tracks like this or are they going to be fairly easy like the rest?

Game of the god damn decade.

how do types rank even in this one ? I know every speedrunner used acceleration type, did that change ?

It's fun but none of my friends own a ps4. Wish there were some people to have races with on voice.

How come i never retain USF?
Is it just perfect turbo sliding occasionally or what?

>The only two trophies I'm missing are "hit two opponents with one bowling bomb" and "hit an opponent directly with a thrown beaker"
I knew these two would be the last one. Fuck these garbage achievements. I have no idea how to get these efficiently

Yes. It's a good game. Adventure Mode is still tideous imo. Time Trial mode is actually fun, it tests your skills. That way you can learn the track easier when you start going up against pros online.

The only negatives are the load times.
And 30fps.

So I guess Crash 2 onwards is nu-Crash.

>occasionally
dude, you must drift for the whole track

You should be fine as long as you keep your USF, though some tracks will definitely be harder to navigate than others. Just keep on trying, fellow Roo main.

Attached: ripper-chuckle.gif (340x191, 792K)

Handling can maintain USF speeds a lot easier but air brake turning is ridiculously strong for speed karts.
Just B urself

>occasionally
Constantly. You want to build up reserves - spare boost, basically - around the entire track, then once you actually hit the USF pad, do your best to hold it, and get some extra boosts in where you can.

Am I a bad person

remakes are shit
I would have rather had the original with online support added

Perfect boosts add to your reserves while "good" boosts basically add nothing. Well they technically give you some but it's off set by the fact that drifting actually drains your reserves and a "good" boost doesn't give enough to compensate for the drift.

So it is possible to just get every platinum relic with him ?
if so it's enough

>Fellow Nash main schooling casuals in one of my favorite tracks
Absolutely based

Isn't there a trophy for winning my a like a millisecond? I can't get that one unless I were to intentionally play tracks just to try and get it.

Fuck off shill, the game is censored.

I think it's actually easier to get platinum relics with a handling character than it is with a speed one, mainly because it's easier to hit those faggy boxes.

Try battle mode against seven easy CPUs and disable every other item.

You can get it online if you DNF everyone else. Don't know why, that's just how it works.

Just realized this as I was done complaining. Got the BOOM trophy in an instant when three CPU players piled up and I shot a bomb in the middle of them. Only one I'm missing is the beaker one which I can cheese in battle mode because I have two controllers.

I have no idea. I honestly can't believe how common that trophy is. I've played the original CTR over 10 years and I've been able to hit an opponent with a thrown beaker ONCE on accident. I have no idea how I'm supposed to do that without cheesing.

>Blizzard Bluff jump
>Hard
Nigga what, it's a lot easier than in the original. If you have SF you pretty much can't fail it. I have like 99% success rate in that shortcut.

Just fail the start line boost against hard CPU players on a track with a narrow path, like Pyramid. That'll make sure you aren't in 1st, and on that track, the CPU's probably won't spread out all that much. If you don't get a bomb early, you may just want to reset.

I would say in order of difficulty it would be
>dragon mines
>papu's pyramid
>blizzard bluff
>tiger temple
I'd say tiger temple is easiest because his maxed handling hinders him a bit in the straight parts. Blizzard bluff is a close second because if you can actually manage to jump over the railing you'd beat his ass even if you were to not take the actual shortcut for 2 laps.

Its the same content we had years ago. The only difference here is that people are obessed with showing everyone else what they're doing so it is very important them to buy and play the new version. The multiplayer is just as pointless as I imagined. A speedrunner tier player will just crush most of the people by a lap and if they ever get an equal opponent it will be nothing but painful RNG on who wins and who doesn't and then it is only a matter of time for people to accept that time trials are the only pure form of racing.

I have all plats and the Blizzard Bluff jump is second only to Sewer Speedway in my tier list of horseshit shortcuts I almost never get. FUCK that jump, I have so much difficulty with it.

When the fuck am I going to be able to play as N. Trance without shelling out 7200 coins?

I come first 90% of the time and I've only found a single person that would be "speedrunner" tier. The fact is most people blow ass at this game online.

If you care about him that fucking much why wasn't that the first thing you saved up for? You even get an extra outfit for him and the extremely patrician Dingodile summer costume which is the reason I wanted the pack at all.

Just play your favourite character.
The importance of stats is overblown and if anything they mean even less in the remake except maybe for beating certain ghosts. If you git gud you should be able to outskill racers with any character.

Yes. Exactly. No point in competing with people way below your skill level. Might aswell just compete for WR time trials.

I was curious because I was playing the OG CTR and Oxide turbofucked me for hours in Blizzard Bluff and Papu's Pyramid. Tiger Temple was almost as grueling, but I somehow cheesed him in Dragon Mines by using the minecart shortcut.

I cleared adventure mode, played some arcade cups, and did time trials. Haven't even done all the tracks to unlock tropy yet but beat the oxide times on the tracks that I have done.
Just keep playing. If I can do it in time trial mode resetting when I fuck up and getting no coins from the reset, so can you.

Is anyone else triggered by the fact that the "beaker" in this game isn't actually a beaker? It's more like a boiling flask or something like that. Maybe that's just me because I've studied chemistry.

>without any online play
Do you not have a subscription or do you just not want to play online? If it's that latter you can AFK farm coins by just going into lobbies and not racing. If you can't do that then I hope you like the game enough to play 150+ races.

>I have every Pit Stop character but N. Trance unlocked. Guess what, though? N. Trance was the only fucking character I actually wanted to play

You don't need 60fps for a racing game. This isn't Tekken.

>since my internet is dogshit
to the point where you can't even boot up a lobby ?
otherwise just power through it, even if you get shat on by teleporting missiles you'll get way more in less time

>but I somehow cheesed him in Dragon Mines by using the minecart shortcut.
Same. I kept restarting until I could slide through that shortcut at least once to get an edge on him.

Just wait until Dragon Mines. That shit is total aids.

I have the same problem, never been imageblocked this long before.

Adding onto this, re doing the same track is efficient because the load time is significantly lower than picking a new track. If you dont reset you'll be getting optimal coin payout for time invested. Plus no opponents to slow you down so get that usf

I have a NSO subscription, my internet literally isn't good enough to play online. I'm like 10 seconds behind everyone else, and it's barely playable.

How do i change skins in classic mode. I'm playing as crash.

1. I have a little kid brother who wanted to play other characters and I wasn't going to be that guy and not let him just because I want N. Trance.
2. I assumed I'd eventually get him in the character rotation, since the character you buy is replaced by another unbought character when you buy them. How was I supposed to know N. Trance happened to be the only character you can't buy normally just because they had a bundle with him?

>Doesn't the race end 30 seconds after first place is taken?
It does but you still get a hefty amount regardless of where you place. It'll get to a point where it stops giving you decent amounts of coins though. I think once you get a certain amount for the day (like 3000-4000) it will stop giving you a bonus. The bonus coins are like a daily thing.

You can't in classic afaik. That's part of the point of classic, it doesn't have the extra skins/karts/characters etc from the remake

Just go to the customisation option in the pause menu and select Crash and tell me what you see, you incredibly silly person.

>want this game badly
>decide on the PS4 version
>realize that I stopped and refuse to pay for PS+
What do. Switch version?

You still earn coins even if you DNF. I think DNF in online might even be worth more coins than first place offline.

I knew it, Jonnet pilaa kaikkien huvin.

Ok but I thought you don't get any coins if the race ends before you cross the finish line, and then you don't get any points.
When I finally was able to play online at a friend's house, I didn't get any coins when this Pinstripe got to Electron Avenue's finish line like a minute before anyone else could.

Internet in general, or just on Switch? Are you on 5 ghz wifi (if wifi)? My Switch online was complete shit on my 2.4 ghz and would drop every 10 seconds, then I found out that my awful Comcast modem had a 5 ghz option and now it's flawless.

It also literally wouldn't even recognize my wifi until I changed the password type to WPA2-PSK AES. Switch's wifi is fucked.

Attached: nonon.jpg (277x284, 17K)

Why did you pick classic if you wanted to try out different skins? Retard.

Switch has the longest loading times and less players.

The Switch version is seriously gimped and has like 2 minute load times. You also have to subscribe for Nintendo online if you want multiplayer anyway.

I'm not finding any matches on Switch online

That option isn't there in classic

I'm on wifi, and to be honest, I don't know a lot about it. All I know is we have a shitty ISP, and it's shitty with everything. We can barely watch videos at my house unless the sky is clear, and even then it's dogshit quality. I have never been able to play online, on any console, here.

Does public matchmaking effectively limit you to racing against people from the same country, or is it more forgiving?

Not to spoil your conspiracy, but another finnbro reporting in and able to post images just fine.

should I not powerslide there at all?

You can start a PS+ free trial with every new account. I haven't done it myself but apparently you just start a free trial as long as you put in your credit card information and remember to cancel it before the trial ends. Can do this forever, since PS+ can be used on other accounts you share the playstation with.

Different ISP, probably.

Forgot to mention the big reason why is because I live in rural Missouri, and I'm surrounded by the woods. This was the only ISP that could apparently work with our location.

I didn't know besides i wanted to experience classic before i jump to hard and hang with the big boys

You just drive into it youtu.be/xBswwTpwchM?t=60

You can play Nitro Fueled mode on any difficulty user

Why not just play the regular adventure mode on normal difficulty?

When you start getting really high speeds braking becomes almost essential to maintain your boost.
If you're trying maintain your boosts around a tight corner, breaking while in the air lets you do really quick hairpin turns and shit.

I've suspected so also but I have over the last few days tested myself with a ton of furry porn and it did absolutely nothing for me. No reaction.
Coco is a special case somehow. Maybe it's because she doesn't have the typical furry stuff that puts me off like a snout. She wears clothes and has a full head of hair, has a button nose and a regular placed mouth.
It could also just be because she was a huge part of everyone's childhood by being an easy first vidya crush. Who knows? I'm just gonna like what I like dude.

Wasn't CTTR the only game that features him besides this?

Again I ask, literally why does it matter? All the popular characters are obtainable by pure single player with no coins involved anyway. If you especially want some obscure fag to play as, you'll earn enough coins to buy a few chars just doing single player. And winning a few races online is enough to unlock new chars too.
Do you want all skins to just be available instantly? That would be shit.

Is still a huge number for beating 1 (ONE) fucking race, not even a boss, a race.

Stop pretending the game is perfect just because it's CTR.

Grinding for 2500 for pink wheels isn't fun.

No, I want all the content that was promised to me, which is already on the disk, and not tied to the internet, to be obtainable offline. I want to not be forced to use "network features" to unlock offline content, just so Activision can introduce microtransactions to the game a month down the line.
The fact that you are defending this shows how blinded you are by the fact that this game is a Crash game.

The game is a party kart racer. Who you're playing as and what they look like is 90% of the game. If it didn't matter, they wouldn't make at least 5 skins per character.

youtube.com/watch?v=dZjiZQx3Pas

This percentage will persist forever. Go check cheevo percentages and find out how many people bought games, turned them on for 10 seconds, then never played them again.

this challenge is retarded

The only marketing i cared about was the announcement, the nitro kart track content, and the live action crash.
Some physics bugs aside, I've gotten everything that I could have wanted for a local multiplayer kart racer. They just need to improve the networking features and allow for LAN for it to be complete.
Sucks that you fell for the marketing meme of cosmetics but it could have been significantly worse if they locked gameplay content that way.

Ok, cool. You're satisfied with it. That doesn't change the shitty, greedy Activision shit that is being pushed into this game. Just because you are fine with it does not mean it is okay, and like I said previously, the only reason you're fine with it is because you love CTR and you want to believe this is a perfect game that can do no wrong.
I guarantee if this was happening to Mario Kart or some other shitty racer, you'd be all over that and spamming in every thread about how dogshit it is.

What would you do if they made a new Crash game, but all the rides (Warthog, Polar, Pura, Baby T) evolved and became playable characters with their own different playstyles?

You really have to go out of your way to get them, you have to do it directly one after another. No one would actually race the way the achievements demand from you.

I'm seething because no PC release

They'll only be 1500 anyway
That said, if I get the Fake Crash costume I'll already have everything I want that's currently out, so may as well

Why do I need to set a time for the time trial before I can challenge the ghosts? It's fucking retarded, especially since my times are already faster than the ghost i'm supposed to challenge.

Really I wanted more ingame challenges to complete for character unlocks and leave the actual skins and shit in the shop. I'm willing to compromise and I dont like that its online necessary but I'm also not going to get buttmad about it because its ultimately harmless and doesnt split playerbase due to having tracks or not.

Got the second on Slide Colosseum and the first on Turbo Track

Just play easy mode, even people who have never played a video game before should be able to beat easy AI on the simple tracks.

sounds like we're retreading titans again if this the gimmick.

Pick Battle Mode first and teach her the basics of the game, jump, slide and add boosting.
I did it with my gf, took time bit at least she isn't getting 8th on every EASY race

>this air steer
how the fuck do I do that ? every time I try to control my direction I end up losing all my momentum

Is that you? Bretty good stuff. I personally find it easier to retain USF by U turning at the sharp corner near the end instead of leaping over it with an air brake. Your method would be faster but I find myself losing USF half the time when I do.

Is there any point in using turnfags or should i just stick to N-word cortex

this, that's one of the dumbest thing they added

on the original, if you did better than Tropy ghost, you unlocked Oxide ghost, but here, you have to replay against all the ghosts
is shit

>be in air
>hold square + down and left
That's the whole trick. Just don't be holding square when you land.

A lot. Wish I were better though

That's mentally ill nPCs for you all they care about is graphics and fps, they don't have any games

they have an easier time on dragon mines without teching.

people enjoy them for the ability to really follow racing lines but generally take a really long while to gain max speed, making them an expert class to master.

I know that pain
>instead of playing through all 31 tracks once with a good time you have to play them each twice, making N.Tropy more time consuming to get than a 101% adventure mode save

Oh my God, I just saw how you get Drifter.
They have to be drifts WITHOUT BOOSTS.
For fuck's sake. What a pointless, contrived trophy that just forces you to play like shit.

Is no one gonna comment on my funny nickname for neo cortex?

I'm trying now and it still won't pop

no (you)

Just copy this.

Worked for me just now.

At least they're not making OC mutants outta nowhere, nice to use pre-established characters in a new light. Like each character has their own attributes that let them explore new parts of each level.

>Crash is the all-around character
>Coco can hack into computers and machines
>Crunch can bash unbreakable walls
>Tawna can persuade certain enemies (i.e. obj_motherfuckers)
>Warthog can run the fastest which is good for long jumps
>Polar can walk normally on ice
>Pura can climb up walls
>T can walk over tar and quicksand with ease

I would be enjoying it more with possy pussy, but hopefully she'll be a later GP character.

What? No they don't. I have never drifted without a boost in this game, certainly not 15 times in a row anyway, I still got it. Where did you read that untruth?

>down
I would have never figured that out

Never son, cope

Not entirely true. Basically, the game only thinks it has 31 tracks since the Retro track is PS4 exclusive. So you can only do 31 trials, doesn't matter which. Once you do that 32nd the game has a fucking stroke.

It's nonsense like this that makes me a little happy the Switch doesn't have achievements.

>Crash Bandicoot Boom
No thanks

I did a full three laps of drifting round Coco Park, no achievement. Every drift succeeded, seamlessly chained together, didn't hit any items, etc.
Then I just wiggled around a bit with no boosts and got the achievement as I entered the tunnel.
Maybe it doesn't absolutely REQUIRE no boosts, but I'm sure it makes it a lot more fucking consistent since I've been sliding through this entire fucking game yet I hadn't gotten the trophy until now.

JUST LET ME FUCKING BUY THE ELECTRON AQUA PAINTJOB
IT'S THE ONLY THING I WANT
I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO WAIT SIX WEEKS FOR IT TO ROTATE BACK IN BECAUSE IT'S BUGGED TODAY

I got it now.

It didn't work on time trial or somehow I kept fucking it up

>only browse ctr this day so I don't see the sticky

Please Jesus let me save presets for different characters, karts and paintjobs, 10 seconds in the lobby isn’t enough time to change everything

I know of a semi afk solution involving running out the clock in crystal challenges. shall i explain?

CNK's difficulty is consistent, CTR's is either boringly easy (Tiger temple) or assblastingly hard (Oxide station)

will someone please come round my house and do the relics for me?

i SUCK

il provide snacks

>complaining that the third track in the game is easy while the last track in the game is assblastingly hard
do you have brain problems?

Will you provide blowjobs?

Beenox has YET to say anything about save corruptions.
The only thing we have gotten was a comment by Activision on Reddit a few days ago saying they would forward the issue to Beenox.

Even a shitty "we're aware of the issue" would be nice.

one for each zone

I want Crash Bash with the roster and care of Nitro, but with more varied and refined minigames as opposed to striving for total accuracy.

Crash Bash CAN be improved. CTR was pretty perfect already.

Please do.

They need to fix their shit. I also had to make another save file because I skipped over 100% and went straight to 101% and it didn't register as me getting 100 so the hovercraft stayed locked.

They won't even address the coin nerf. Just another reminder never to trust companies even when they act like they're your friends and big superfan devs

>3rd track
Kneel, also CTR tracks difficulty can't be measured by order of appearance, Crash cove is hard despite being the first stage

from what i remember the PS4 crashes often, regardless what you play. people said the corruption happens when the system crashes, it might be a glitch in the game but not ruling out the console itself is ill-reliable.

The game considers Coco Park to be a tier 2 track

That is Tony doing a Dingodile cosplay

Her voice makes my dick hard.

ok, start a crystal challenge and run out the 90 second clock for 15 coins a pop.

that's actually news to me.

i'm taking a plane right now user

prepare your lips

gotta blast

I finally got the N. Trance pack with the neat Dingodile's summer costume. Now I will save coins for the Grand Prix characters as the only character sI haven't unlocked yet are Zam and Zem and I have zero interest in them.

That Dingo costume gives me life.

What the fuck
And people say it's a good game...

yeah, I feel cheated by them but is Activision after all, we should have expected this

they're uninteresting but paying the 3000 coins gets rid of them so on the 3rd you got babes instead of them to choose.

So the save deletion glitch can occur when you unlock Tropy? Is that only point it can occur?

yes, that was the first thing I bought

The game thinks it only has 31 tracks because Retro is PS4 exclusive. Don't do Retro and you're fine. Once the game has to record a 32nd time it has a stroke

It seems that it's related to Retro Stadium

Coco, something's different. new shirt?

somebody here said it happens when you do the trial at the Retro track

no one has confirmed it happened yet

>>some nintendo-related eceleb offing himself gets a sticky
And people say Yea Forums isn't Nintedogaf.

I guess I got lucky cause nothing ever happened to me when I did it there days ago.

It's already referenced in one of Cortex's tracks, so it's not out of the window.

God I wish I could do that turn at 0:32. It's the only thing destroying my races in Hot Air Skyway. You make it look so effortless but I just can't pull off that mid-air turn at that part even if my life depended on it. I can do it with bigger jumps when I have more time to pull it off but there, not a fucking chance. I have a strategy that works like 1/3 of the time at most but it's not consistent enough to use online and it pisses me off.

>already done Retro Stadium time trial and even beat Oxide on it
>about to finish the last 2 time trials and unlock him

am I fucked?

I want a room with 8 coco players

It doesn't happen instantly but it will eventually. Start doing Oxide's ghost and see what happens ;^)

stop.

play regular online. it's more common than you think.

Pray to RNG and backup your progress

I already beat both ghosts days ago and nothing happened. Like I said, probably got lucky. but I've got backups just incase.

I find it funny how anybody could get excited for garbage like this when Mario Kart 8 came out a decade ago and was better in every conceivable way.

This seems planned? Even so, there are usually one or two players wearing their own skins instead of matching up with the others, but at least us coco mains can play in this room without being called a tryhard

So, there isn't a Yea Forums server?
or someone hosting?
