Slide Coliseum is a good track and has the better Tiny Arena remix
This game would be so much better without the homing weapons.
Does Tawna not have her own Paint Job like the rest of the Nitro Squad? I don't see anything like a "Tawna Fuschia" in the paint job list.
Side note, I feel like the default colors should be named similarly, like "Crash Blue" or "Ripper Roo Orange"
Slide Coliseum was kinda boring in the original, but far from a bad track.
Is it just me or are online servers fucked right now? I was playing some races just fine about 10 minutes ago and then matches just disappeared, gave me an "unable to find suitable games" message as well. Restarting my PS4 to see if that does anything but I want to know if anyone else is having the same problem
Singularity will be reached once Crash is announced for Smash.
Any other Switchlets unable to play online?
Why?
I agree because I can't tell which purple is supposed to be Pura's/Ngin's and which green is supposed to be Tiny's/Dingodile's
It's a bit rocky for me, I can occasionally get into a race, but sometimes it hangs at the starting line and it won't let me quit. I have to switch Airplane Mode on and off to get the race started.
I hope there is/will be a colour for Tawna, but the devs may think it not necessary because you won't need it (in theory) for nitro points if you have motorsport Tawna.
And now there is! Introducing the Crash Threads!
I want Ami to force herself upon me.
Because whether you win or lose shouldnt be a matter of someone elses RNG.
I've completely been unable to get into a lobby. It sticks around the "waiting for others" screen before giving me a matchmaking error. I don't think it's my internet because I can play other stuff online just fine
I want Ami to force my mouth on her smelly asshole after a hot day of racing and blow farts down my throat
You deserve an underage ban if you honestly thing either of these games invented that style.
>It’s okay when based ninty shamelesly steals game mechanics from other games but we’ll be sure to point out “mk clones and ripoffs” if anyone threatenes our favorite company
This isn't CTR related, but am I the only one who noticed the Naughty Dog paw logo is gone from Coco's laptop in the Steam version of NST?
>tfw all of my free time is spent playing CTR so I can finish in the top 5% and get the champion kart
I'm kinda hoping next Grand Prix has the same reward for the top 5% players, or something lame so I don't have to bother. At this rate I'll be playing nothing but CTR all year
What?
So Ami is the futa bandicoot, right?
Good.
Fuck ND!
This goes to show Megumi fags are literally mentally retarded.
no, she just seems like she would be from having so many roids and test supplements pumping in her system
it hasa new decal but same kart
It will be the same car with different decal and paint job. You can stay in the top 5% just by doing your dailies, takes 20 minutes at most, and then by doing your weeklies and pro challenges during the weekend.
>Nitro Kart characters
>Classic kart
What color do you give them? I usually go for:
Small Norm - White
Big Norm - Charcoal (Black)
Nash - Blue Grey
N. Trance - Team Trance green
Zem - Mustard
Zam - Team Oxide Yellow
Krunk - ???
Geary - ???
Not him but what other kart games use the same hybrid antigravity system like CNK and MK8?
None, and CNK was the first.
But good luck getting them to admit that.
Never said it was from an another kart racer.
My implications were that such an antigravity mechanism was not indeed an unique concept nor was it invented by either kart racer.
You two. Grow a brain.
This is the true item list
Keep moving those goalpost and be intentionally obtuse, nintenbronie.
Geary could have a copper color, and Krunk could use a red and purple color scheme to match his outfit.
Also Velo could use a purple, red, and gold scheme
How is the TNT better than a nitro?
where's splitscreen online
Because you can fuck over one or more person either including yourselfnor not
If you're lucky or gud, but I see our point. You can ruin someone's attempt at a shortcut better with nitro though.
You don't deserve to post megumi
You sure about that? Being forced to jump at the wrong time can be pretty fucking annoying
I may have worded that wrong, but if you put a TNT at a shortcut's beginning, you'll still make it, but you'll get blown up once complete it. If you put a nitro at a shortcut's beginning, you blow up right there and won't make the shortcut, and probably fall into a pit or something.
>TFW the Nitro Squad will soon be irrelevant since they're locked only to CTR
Good

Ded game, ded thread, lets allgo back to TSR, bros.
I'm more worried about what sort of 'fan art' we'll get.
>3-30 fps
Nah, nitro is practically useless before a fall and many people dont for it
Tnt will either make you jump or explodes mid jump. Which if you jump it off will often mean you dont have enough reserves to keep sf or usf
>stupid o'clock in america
wow, i wonder why the thread is slow...
Thanks for the bump
TSR is garbage though. If I was going back to a Sonic racer it'd be Transformed.
Fuck Oxide Station
>Why yes, I do want to fuck Oxide Station since it's my trackfu. How did you know?
I fucking love this skin, very nice surprise for this Grand Prix
As an initial Cortex main I wasn't thrilled with any of his base skins but this one is great
>One month of non-stop Baby Coco lewds every threads
I'm not sure if I'm ready for it bros
Well get ready
>I fucking love this skin
Me too, one of the best legendary skins in the game for sure. Too bad I never play balanced, otherwise I'd play the shit out of Pharaoh Cortex.

Guys tawna got stuck on the big stupid arrow in crash cove and shes refusing to come down unless crash comes and saves her. She seems distressed about the whole ordeal.
Someone from the current roster is gonna be forced into a diaper for "laughs" as an alt its N. Gin .
in the remake timeline Tawna never left crash for Pinstripe
Come on Tawna this is the fifth time this week, just climb down
>Only dumb assholes get on this sign
in the canon timeline Tawna was never with Pinstripe
>crash is a cuck in the jpn version
I would expect no less from the sole country responsible for 90% of the ntr content on the market.
first of original* timeline
secondly yeah, she did in Crash Boom Bang. There is nothing lore wise stopping that game from taking place
>Thunder Struck gets picked online

>See one Penta player stay at the starting line

I swear to god, Penta tryhards are the biggest fucking retards in the entire CTR playerbase. If you're a Penta main, follow this guy's lead and just keep jumping off a cliff repeatedly until you disconnect from life, you fucking idiots.
Has it really been patched?
Is it safe to play thunderstruck online now?
This, literally come home from work and grind out daily coins, then do daily/weekly challenges then go to bed every day
Can't finish dmc5 DMD, crash 3 100% or read books or anything because of this shit, the grind has consumed my life lol
Yes and yes, was fixed in the latest patch
Based post
Yes but there's a different skip now, though it's harder to do, you might need blue fire to get it. From what I recall (haven't tried it personally), you need to jump to the left from the first major bump, up onto the "landing area" of the jump leading into the section you'd skip into before
welp, time to send this to feedback

Get the red booster item and charge into them

*reverses into your path*
He's literally a meme character. He can only be unlocked when you enter a cheat code.
Who stole Tawna's tits?
Poketards are the worst about this shit.
Beenox, Activision's marketing team or wherever was a genius for releasing the Waifu Squad first. Nothing truly sells better than tits and ass.
I can wait for my boy Dr. Nitrus Brio if it means the game gathers a big audience while I wait. But if they make him handling or balanced without buffing those classes I will sip some mutagen and hulk out.
I'm hoping for Brio to be acceleration since I main that class exclusively. Please Beenox, just give me more good accel bros.
based. this happens far too often.
I'm thinking Brio will be accel - it seems that smart/nerdy characters belong to that class (Coco & N Gin)
I remember reading that sony had all references to naughty dog removed from other versions of the games for some reason.
look at liz's cute belly!
I feel the same way about Megumi since I love speed and Ami is just wholly unappealing to me
>That lone Crashbro
Shine on you crazy bastard.
Do all the nitro girls want to fuck crash?
I'd play Crash because he's cute but balanced kinda sucks.
>2 useless classes in the game
Did Beenox really think this through?
They kept it the same as the original, which was Naughty Dog’s fault. They should really rebalance them though.
I dominate on tracks like Cortex Castle, Tiny Arena, and Oxide Station with handling characters - they can be good if you know how to use them.Of course, if you're gud with speed characters it's a different story
I fairly regularly see this one guy online who mains handling and he's really damn good, easily one of the top 5 players I've seen online. The first time I saw him he destroyed me at Tiny Arena with Pura. You can definitely win with handling characters if you know what you're doing.
Rather have more new tracks than all these shitty cosmetics and characters, if we don’t end up with 48 like MKDeluxe I am disspointed
Yeah, turn characters can be pretty beastly if you actually know how to use them. It's the balanced class that's pretty useless at the moment. Good for beginners, but you ain't gonna win a lot of online matches with 'em.
PENGUINYAY.......FOUR?
She likes to ride pointy things
Beating local shitters as a slow class doesn't magically make them good. You're just handicapping yourself
Does that mean Megumi, Tawna, Nash and Pinstripe are nerds too?
Well, Pinstripe isn't a dumbass, and they depict Tawna as "the smart one".
Whenever Tawna gets stuck in akward situations she can't get herself out of her confidence breaks and she just waits around for crash to save her is a cute headcanon
Some guy on reddit said that these are the real stats of the 4 classes and the ones ingame are wrong
Those are the original stats.
Seems about right.
Smart or nerdy, definitely.
>Megumi
Japanese girl, definitely smart (and probably nerdy too, stereotypes don't lie. Most certainly the smartest and nerdiest of the trophy girls)
>Tawna
Literally described as being intelligent in the official material
>Nash
He's a cybernetic shark for fuck's sake, he's definitely some type of tech genius
>Pinstripe
He's a mafia boss so he's definitely intelligent
In general the stat stereotypes seem to go like this:
>Speed
Big and fat characters
>Acceleration
Smart/nerdy/intelligent characters
>Turning
Small and cute characters, pets, animals
>Balanced
Main characters and whatever is left over (i.e. the ones that don't fit elsewhere)
This of course doesn't apply to everything (see for example Penta in speed) but it seems to be the general rule.
Well what about Oxide, N.Trance and Nash though? I think you're just imagining a pattern because it's what you want to see.
Who else doesn't give too much of a shit about the bonus nitro the trophy girls give? I used to play a lot of Ami but seeing races filled with the same karts/wheels/paints/characters gets shit after a while. Switched to Big Norm, got the kabuki skin and haven't looked back.
I have barely any experience with Crash
I only played like the first two worlds of the original
Can I just jump into CTR or should I play the original trilogy to get better associated with the characters
I don't like playing Ami but I wsnt to remain as far into that 5% as possible until the end of the month. I might be in the 1% now, but at anytime some sorta autist could find an exploit even worse than the turbo controllers and if that happens I would rather have a good standing and play garbage characters than play what I want and lose standing
Honestly they should just let you choose your own stat combo, make it not dependant on character and kart so we can keep the variety. I really love ripper roo and crash but it's just dumb not to pick a speed character if you want to win
They’re both fun games, so whatever you feel like is better. Lore isn’t exactly that important when it comes to Crash
Same, I like Ami but I'm sick of using her and the bandibuggy.
I'm close to getting the Rocket wheels, so after I get those I'm back to Cortex and never touching motorsport Ami again
You don't have to know anything beforehand at all, but the original trilogy is good so you'd be doing yourself a disfavor by skipping it
Choosing class doesn’t really help the fact that handling and balance kinda suck. If anything, classes need to be rebalanced
You won’t know the characters but it’s not like there’s much to know about them. They’re pretty shallow. You can just play this and pick characters you find endearing.
I don't expect an exploit but I do expect me running out of themed/pro challenges so my output drops significantly. I'm pretty comfortable now though, in top 1k.
They should fix the boost by having a 25% boost to a new character on any skin and old characters on new skins, rather than forcing to use the ugly costumes for new characters only for max profit.
All-Rounder: 4/4/4 (12)
Handling: 3/3/6 (12)
Speed: 6/3/3 (12)
Acceleration: 3/6/3 (12)
How is this for class rebalance?
WHEN ARE YOU GONNA FUCKING PEG ME
I like Ami, but I stopped using the motorsport skin and bandibuggy because I find them ugly and overused, and the bonus isn't that big anyway.
Forgot, it goes Speed/Acceleration/Handling
i am super confused, i literally play for no more than an hour a day and im in the top 0.5% , im not even remotely close to the sports tawna skin and yet the numbers do not lie. i dont get how others are struggleing
Speed would still be the best, you'd just have usefullness of balance and acceleration switch place.
I mean speed will always be best in this game at higher levels of play but I hope it’d even out the other three a little.
>Buffing speed even more
"No"
last I checked I was like 8k rank and I do the same
I don't really try to hard grinding the coins tho, maybe on weekends
Forgot pic
No need to wait.
What is a batawe?
A thing for powewing your waptop
>Suddenly all media counts when Nintendo is the one stealing ideas
You cunts are the most insufferable faggots on the earth
someone said that afk farming the crystal challenge has been fixed, is that true ?
yeah p much spot on for where I am too
basically if you unlock motorsport tawna you're getting the kart me thinks
I don't know
fow*
youw*
bit odd though, i do estimate that means roughly 85% of the player-base wont get the skin. which is odd considering how casual the whole thing is made out to be
if you dont know, dont reply to my post
I go out of my way to use items in Penta players
How to deal with shitty Activison trying to force people into playing the non-functional online with no matchmaking:
>select crystal challenge
>tape coin to A button
>press turbo
>set controller aside
>get free nitro and coins without having to put up with this shit
Why not?
>to unlock Baby Tropy you have to beat Baby Tropy’s ghosts
>they’re actually really slow and easy to beat, they go off edges and into hazards constantly
>after beating three of them he throws a tantrum and gives up, and you unlock him then and there
Decent for coin farming, but don't you get fuck all nitro without doing challenges?
I still get coins for spamming X in Lab Basement. Unless they can detect turbo controllers it should still work.
well you get nitro while being afk
if youre not afk, do the challenges
shit would be cash
You get 70 per 10 minutes, if you select the characters, skins and karts that give you a boost, and you can still do the nitro challenges each day when you're currently not auto farming.
7 Nitro a minute is pretty good if you can leave if afk all day.
In about 100 hours you’d max out Gold Tier without even doing a single challenge.
0 chance but that would be great
Can somebody explain this Non-functional online mode? I've been playing this game, since release, literally 24/7 and I don't think I've had one online fuck up? or unable to find games, what is happening?
>the autistic Ami I was lobbied with, with just me and a friend otherwise in the lobby
>they pick Papu's Pyramid every time, win on it
>any other map they suck shit on
I know it was one of you fags and I know you were seething
They call it non-functional because they keep getting dnf'd
Matchmaking won't make them suck any less
I get a lot of matches where I'll get hit by invisible items or items that visibly went past my kart, people often times teleport around, I don't know if it's due to cheating or horrible lags, but I am connected via LAN cable, and so there shouldn't be any issues on my end.
Also, it's straight up just not a lot of fun, when first place is always some neckbear who comes in 30 second ahead of literally everybody else, it's not even a competition anymore, you're just trying to cross the finish line before the timer runs out. It's just an unfun mess all around, honestly.
Same user, I keep seeing people talk about how online is busted, but I've literally had one time online went down, and that's cus the servers went down for everybody. Every online game so far has been fine. All I do is play CTR, on repeat, nada problems. Except for getting angry as fuck at online, but that's different
>random explosion
>multiple players go flying
>see someone next to me get flattened
>five seconds later someone passes us with turbo
>race ends, 3rd place gets sent to 8th
That's not lag. It's desync. Different issue entirely.
>Animeposter
>Complains about online because he gets DNF'd
>Has to cheese the game in order to buy optional cosmetics
No surprises there
What are the finishing rewards based on? Sometimes I get 200 coins for 3rd place, now I keep getting 20.
>do Android Alley
>everyone's placings are jumping everywhere
>5th one minute 2nd the next without passing anyone
>all but one person gets a dnf
>its was 3rd place
>1st place got a dnf
>finish race coming in 3rd
>first place didn't even finish until the scoreboard updates 20 seconds after
>suddenly he has the best time out of all by a large margin
also
>drive track
>build up a good distance to rest of players
>suddenly someone teleports in front of me out of nowhere
also
>come in first
>suddenly be 6th after race ended
Daily bonus, finishing position and the length of the track.
There's a daily 5x bonus, active during your first 30 minutes of racing/battling after the shop reset.
>play the shit out of the game the week it came out
>kinda bored of it now and not really interested in skins or anything
well it was a fun trip down nostalgia lane
kamikaze never works i just got someone online with it and nope no challenge completion
The rightmost column here is the first place earnings for all the tracks, with slight decreases for 2nd, 3rd, and then 4th-8th
During your first half hour of gameplay online your winnings are multiplied by 5
If you play online during the weekend, your winnings are multiplied by 2
You get a x5 bonus for the first 30min of online play a day. I think you're only timed during the race, not when you're in lobby, aside from that placement and track length affect payout, without the x5 bonus I can get 80 coins from finishing first in electron avenue
