Do you know about air braking and u-turning? Perfecting those two are all you need for maintaining USF on Oxide Station.
Liam Cook
Oxide Station is the worst one by far, probably spent more time on that one than all the other CTR tracks combined Trick is to nail the S turn bit at the beginning and then to keep blue flame as long as possible after the jump. Last one especially will gain you a lot of time even on one lap. You need 3:34 to unlock the ghost iirc, then his time is 3:32
Julian Bennett
No, please tell me about this
Isaiah Diaz
Believe it or not, speed characters can beat Tropy on Oxide Station without drifting if you hop around turns properly. Look it up online. If they can do it without drifting than you have no excuse for not beating him even when only drifting on the easy sections.
Focus on not slamming into walls.
Liam Harris
You just need to learn the track well enough that you can maintain USF on it for a decent chunk of the last two laps. Just run through it over and over to learn when and where to hop and air brake especially in the last section.
Julian Gray
Fuck off with your censored game.
Grayson Sanchez
I hate to break it to you user, but this isn't a hentai game, nor did I create it
Anthony Barnes
They're essentially the same technique, but one is done in the air and the other grounded.
>U-turning Press down and a direction on the D-Pad (you can do this on the joystick too but it's less reliable), then release X and press Square, as long as you don't stop inputting down you won't lose any speed and you'll do a pretty right turn, allowing you to get through hairpins easily. You need to have some amount of reserves stored for this as you'll be letting go of X, since if you don't have any you'll just stop.
>Air-braking While you're in midair from a hop, release X and hold Square, you won't lose speed and you'll be able to make much tighter turns. Remember that you must release Square before you land or you'll lose your reserves. As an extra warranty, you can also input down while you do this, just like with u-turning, so that you don't lose your reserves upon landing if you slip up.
You’ve probably noticed that breaking lets you turn very tightly. You can actually do this same turning maneuver in the air, and doing it in the air lets you preserve speed and boost. This technique is calling airbraking.
If you hold backwards while break turning you also preserve your boost, even on the ground. By holding backwards the shape of the turn will change from ‘skidding in your original direction while changing the angle of your cart’ to an extremely tight U shaped turn. This is called U-turning, and it’s how people perform those insanely tight turns online (such as the end of Hot Air Skyway) without losing their boost. U-Turning can also be done in the air. In fact, it’s easier to do in the air.
To recap, u-turning and air braking are turning maneuvers that REQUIRE letting go of the gas and hitting the breaks. Two things let you keep your boost when hitting the break: >Being in the air >Holding backwards By using one or the other, you can airbrake or U-turn. By combining both, you can U-turn in the air.
Performing a sharp U-turn is very difficult with the analog stick, as going too far left or right won’t register as holding back anymore. Try practicing it with the D-pad to remove the room for error that the analog stick introduces.
If you can’t replicate a U-turn even after all of that, load up a stage with a boost pad. Drive over it and hold backwards+left on the D-pad and slam the brakes the instant you touch it. Don’t worry about maintaining the speed, just observe the turning angle. Your goal is to do that in the air.
Hudson Young
On the U-turning section: >do a pretty right turn, allowing Meant tight turn, my bad. Phoneposting was a mistake.
Certainly, just replace X (Accelerator) with B and Square (Brake) with Y. Regrettably I don't have any webms to offer visual aid, which I believe would be helpful.
Ryder Jones
The most important part is keeping the blue flame long enough, if you suck at U-turning like I do you can just jump into the turns after you land the big jump, you just need to learn the right angles. The time for unlocking him is also like 2 seconds out of beating him so doing that is the easy part. Also, go beat some of the Nitro Kart tracks to relax, they will also help you practice.
Adrian Miller
I would recommend not over relying on jumping, however. Sometimes you can build more reserves through three perfect boosts in the air than from the fall boost. You have to be aware of how much you have left so you don't just run out of USF mid-fall, for example. Midair 'drifting' would fix that.
If reserve upkeep is a problem I'd recommend practicing with Accel or Speed characters to get used to the drifting angle and building reserves on straights.
Blake Ortiz

Isaac Anderson
You people looking forward to anything? This GP has been a massive letdown, I have everything except both babies and the Nostalginator decals, which I have zero interest in buying.
Charles Long
Not really I don't have faith in the new tracks and couldn't care about any characters they're putting in I just hope they put in enough new stuff to keep others interested in the game so I can keep having fun races with people
Brandon Watson
I'm holding out for hope that Beenox gets off their asses and actually brings something worthwhile to the game other than GPs with no new modes or fixes.
Jacob Lee
Stop pressing the acceleration button after the blue flame jump in antigrav. Drift into the next boost pad and only then press the acceleration button again. This lets you drift really tight and you can maintain blue flame further into the track more consistently. This is the bare minimum you have to do to unlock N.Tropy's ghost, elite players will maintain this blue flame through the whole track.
To defeat tropy just maintain this flame up to the tight turn after the segment littered with boost pads. Don't hit walls. Jump drops when you can't drift.
Jeremiah Kelly
Anyone else not able to earn any Nitro Points or Wumpa Coins recently???
I understand since all the big faces were in the game from the get go, but aren't you interested in anything at all? Not Nina or N. Brio? Maybe they add some cool karts.
Eli Clark
I earn them but I get kicked out to the title screen each time a race ends.
Austin Lopez
I'm saving coins to get the Spyro stuff as fast as possible I really wanted Moneybags to get in but that doesn't seem likely, so just hoping that the new tracks are good (no blue flame for once, but that's too much) and for the rest of the promised cast, Brio and Moe mainly and Rilla Roo just for shitposting purposes.
Nathan Carter
thats strange, im also not earning any challenges and the challenges in the Grand Prix are all glitched
Caleb Baker
I wouldn't mind some new karts, wheels and paint Loved the lava wheels and the Probulot
Charles Watson
how do i get good with speed characters? i crash into every corner
Jace Ward
Reset your game
Tyler Torres
Game must be bugging out on me really hard, I saw part of full default Crash in the classic kart peeking from the top of the screen in the Pit Stop.
Practice, give it a while to get used to how they turn.
Logan Nelson
It's really just getting used to their angling as they're powersliding. They're absolute units once you master that. Give yourself a lot of leeway before you enter a turn and for sharper turns see
Carson Howard
What was up with that "No turbo pads on Hyper Spaceway" a few days ago? Is no-one testing these challenges?
Jack Young
Im really just playing for shits and giggles at this point. Game felt alot more fresh when the Nitro Squad and their GP was still up.
It's not surprising, the game was a little more than a month old at that point. As fun as it is, we all experienced the core gameplay ten years ago.
Cameron Harris
I'm excited for every other Grand Prix. This one is just a slog.
Nathaniel Butler
just pick a speed character all you need to beat tropy good luck with oxide ghosts
Landon Roberts
This and it'll feel the same for me with Spyro. I'll be excited at first because new content but I never got into it so i'm not as invested as I will be when October GP rolls around.
Are you drifting/boosting every chance you possibly get? You need to build up reserves by doing this so you can hold Sacred Fire/Ultimate Sacred Fire for a long time on tracks. Also, Oxide Station is the hardest track to unlock him on so don’t let that beat you down.
Zachary Brooks
Now that I think about it, will they add Sparx as a mask replacement for the Spyro characters? Or will they just get a mask?
Ian Jenkins
They will get Sparx. There's string data that confirms this in the latest datamine.
Wyatt Green
I only played at a friends house as a kid, never owned it or even beat it. What do you guys expect from the Spyro GP? What do you think I'll be in for?
Bentley Torres
Ah, sweet. Will it be present in Adventure mode too to give the tutorials? Making Sparx noises?
Owen Jackson
Probably not since Velo doesn't for the CNK characters. If they go out of their way to do it that'd be nice though.
Wyatt Kelly
According to the datamine there should be five characters, Spyro, Gnasty Gnorc, Ripto and Sorceress (RIP Sgt. Byrd). I imagine that along with that we'll get two karts, another wheel set and a sticker pack.
Asher Jones
>Gnorc is okay looking >Ripto looks goofy >Was expecting Sorceress to make my PP hard I hope the karts are okay because I don't like the characters other than Spyro.
Josiah Rogers
Ah, I forgot, Hunter should be in too. Tbh there was no way to make everyone happy because Spyro's trilogy has too many good characters, but I'll admit I'm surprised we didn't get another female character, like Bianca.
Matthew Thomas
Oxide station was easy. hell, even oxides ghost in Oxide station was easy. learn to boost, u-turn and dont crash into anything.
Almost bought this game on switch for $27, physically. I have no idea if I should do it.
Brayden Gomez
>nearly have everything in the pit stop unlocked now I'm almost free lads. 4 more sticker packs that are way too fucking expensive for fucking stickers I mean who uses fucking stickers, and I'm done. All coins will be saved for Spyro and anything in the future.
This one is just boring, I'll never play as the baby characters, I stopped after unlocking 3 of them because I don't care about customising karts, the default kart is best. The better not be Jewish and make spyro a gold tier gp award because nobody has been grinding this month.also angry that some gp tasks are designed to get your friends to buy the game to help you cheat. Win an ONLINE race while driving the entire last lap backwards? Are you fucking kidding,
You can of course also ask fro balance fixes and report bugs and shit, but I want everyone to know that this girl might be our last bastion of hope for a cute girl that's guaranteed to be in Speed cass
there's a very large chance that neither Pasadena nor Nina will be Speed or Accel
Really wasn't my intention but after reading it, I can see how I am doing that I'll be careful about that from now on
Adrian Moore
>people in these threads constantly post about how they want to bang the Trophy Girls I don't see how am I wrong, that sure counts as being an enthusiast.
Josiah Gomez
I'm okay with Pasadena and Nina not being Speed. Pasadena should be balanced. I was less okay with Nina being fucking Turn but I can accept if she is because Turn is the only one I don't have a main for.
I hope you get Yaya user, you're dedication is inspiring.
You're an enthusiast for liking Crash as a series. You're a furry just for being here, even.
Since you're going to pick that single part of it to define the term.
Thomas Evans
Furries are usually out of their mind halfwits who dress up as animals, create fursonas on websites, go to cons and more often than not are gay as shit. Wanting to impregnate anthro girls is far from this classification.
Thank you user. I would love for either of those to be Speed, especially Pasadena since I have a thing for girls with southern accents. But Pasadena in particular feels like a perfect fit for balanced, being of moderate size, moderate cookiness, and moderate intelligence (compared to Coco, or Tiny). I don't know what Nina will be, but Speed is the least I expect of her.
It's hard to know exactly how many people actually want it because of the nature of this site, but the only thing clear is that it's not as brilliant an idea as its creator thinks it is. Merely a bandaid.
It doesn't fix the balancing, but it fixes the issue that people should be able to play as whatever character they want without being at an objective disadvantage
Colton Torres
Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk. You only get to play as real velo when/if you get good.
Luke Jones
There's always that one user that spergs in these threads. Sorry for the friendly fire.
David Barnes
The only 'objective disadvantage' is their own skill level. Most Speedfags I've seen online can't even keep SF.

Julian Cook
Yeah no shit. Turns out games are more fun when you're invested in the content presented to you.

Eli Anderson
We're never getting engine swaps and I hope you people actually suffer every second you complain when the solution is right in front of you to experiment and explore more of the game you bought.
You are missing the point. I do play as velo and I still occasionally win as velo. However I'm at an objective disadvantage because when stats were arbitrarily assigned to characters he was given one that makes him worse than literally everyone else in the lobby. I shouldn't have to compensate just because I got unlucky enough to have the character I like in turning
>Objective disadvantage Bullshit and conjecture. Online has items. On tracks like Papu's Pyramid where you're like to get nailed with a bomb in the first climb, Turning characters are literally faster because you can be boosting all the way up.
Imagine flexing with the Champion kart and placing 4th or worse.
Gabriel Brown
Any class can boost up the pyramid, only Speed and Accel will beat you to the top and leave Crates/Beakers in the incredibly narrow shortcuts. I understand what you're saying but let's not try and pretend Accel and Speed aren't clearly superior classes.
Thomas Edwards
Champion kart isn't really flexing at all when it's braindead easy to get. The only "flex" is digital tropy and platinum paint. Rest is easy to get.
Ryan Hughes
>Any class can boost up the pyramid After 5 fucking tries in Time Trial.
You're not getting it.
Evan Green
>a lobby votes for dragon mines >it filters out all the scrubs who drop like flies
I wouldn't consider that much of a flex It wasn't difficult to get
Alexander Ortiz
>One single example on one single track Meanwhile speed characters are able to properly drift boost in straight lines on any track in the game. I'm thinking that's a little bit objectively better than being able to drift one turn in pappus pyramid.
Not to mention that it's still totally possible to get up that hill without losing any speed as a speed character if you can air turn properly
Oliver Bell
I actually flexed kinda big, by playing as Velo in the Champ kart. and surprisingly, got first quite a bit before changing back to my normal kart builds.
>After 5 fucking tries in Time Trial Which literally everyone still playing has done
Nolan Morgan
>Not to mention that it's still totally possible to get up that hill without losing any speed as a speed character if you can air turn properly Again, not important. They will fail it more consistently.
Jose Cox
So are we pretending the classes are balance now? Is that what we've come to
Joseph Bailey
No we're just not pretending to reward zoomer retards that refuse to even learn the game before demanding it changes for them.
Bentley Butler
>After 5 fucking tries in Time Trial.
Yes? Virtually everyone good at the game has done Time Trials.
Cameron Anderson
>Samefagging You're still not getting it. You're failing it more often.
Easton Williams
We are currently rewarding the Zoomer retards who pick with the meta instead of picking characters they want to play. That's the downside of having stats (very unbalanced ones at that) tied to specific characters.
I'm of the opinion that they should buff Balanced and Turn. However, if you don't pick a character BECAUSE they're Balanced or Turn you're a massive faggot.
Jayden Moore
FIX BALANCED BUFF TURNING maybe throw in an engine select as well
Not him but you're being an asshole. The complaints about balanced and handling being fucked are vast and common. Can you still get good despite the issues? of course but don't fucking sit there and say there's nothing wrong with them dude because you're just lying at that point.
Christopher Myers
>maybe throw in an engine select as well Not gonna happen
Xavier Scott
I bet one of the things they'll add to coincide with the PC release is engine select.
Boy I sure love how every faggot with Clock waits until first place has cleared any shortcut you need boosted SF for before using it.
Nicholas Cooper
the trick is to boost two time before the jump and dont jump on to the platform. just drive and perform the jump when you just on the edge.
David Campbell
Probably not considering it would take work and effort on Beenox's part.
Colton Kelly
Nobody thinks that it will. Just that it should.
Brayden Collins
What fucking braindead retard and Beenox saw the current state of the Warp Orb and said to themselves "yes this is fine". Some of the shit in this game defies basic common sense.
Lincoln Long
>Not him but you're being an asshole I am being rightfully facetious. The 'issues' with class balance are at the single most superficial level they could possibly be in a racing game, when there's so much more involved than Top Speed, even with U-turning factored in.
There's always a faster car. Always. Doesn't mean a thing.
Jayden Robinson
But the engine would change nothing. Maority of people would play the speed class anyway. It's like you would want to be able to swap the moveset in Tekken, and everyone would pick Devil Jin moveset. You will just kill the diversity of play.
Isaac Carter
>We are currently rewarding the Zoomer retards who pick with the meta instead of picking characters they want to play Exactly what your problem is.

Charles Lewis
You are combining the balance issue and the character selection issue into the same problem. Who cares if most of the people play the speed class when they can at least diversify the characters you see in the lobby Right now everyone plays exclusively speed and occasionally accel anyway. Balancing the stats is a whole issue in itself
Jeremiah Davis
I believe, i want liz to sit on my face, while she plays CTR and HEHE's when she wins.

Connor Taylor
Ah shit, here we go again
Bentley Peterson
>Right now everyone plays exclusively speed and occasionally accel anyway They do not.
I have already at least to the point of unlocking Tropy and doing pretty alright online. I however am not got to sit here and say there's nothing wrong with balanced and Handling when people have outright done comparisons showing just how fucked they are you cretin.
I'm not convinced just because you take a picture every time you win a race as liz. Go into a lobby right now and see for yourself
Parker Kelly

Did you forget to what this argument was even about, smoothbrain? I didn't say turning characters can't win. I said 90 percent of all lobbies are speed characters
Juan Sanders
That’s above the Oxide time; heck yes it’s possible. Maintain normal fire from the first boost pad until you get stage 1 USF, then make sure you hit the second USF pad on top of the market kiosk for stage 2.
Stage 2 works exactly the same way but it’s faster, and only applies to specific pads.
Lincoln Butler
You're inoperable. I literally cannot play the game atm but when I come back with the screeshots you're going to pull the same shit you are currently: deny and deny.

>literally the exact same game just with X company's controller if you have retarded fingers that can't adapt to more than one layout, you have a problem. Only valid complaint about switch "feel" is that the joycon buttons fucking suck, so just grab a different controller.
James Morris
I like how Nitro Fueled kept the inexplicably tight target time for unlocking N.Tropy and Oxide that in no way correlates with their ghosts.
How were the ghosts made anyway? Are they just the dev's ghosts and then they just put Ntropy and Oxide over them?
Justin Allen

Henry Ramirez
I have enough to blow through the wheels and skins but I just don't care to buy them
Elijah Peterson

Kayden Lewis
I don't blame you, some shit is just ugly and there is no fixing it.
Dylan Williams
You idiots, it's not about the controller. It's the fact that when I start up a CRASH game, I expect to see the SONY logo, not some kiddieshit company pop up on my screen.

Liam Kelly
He does have a point that this game is graphically significantly nerfed on Switch and that the game was created with the Playstation controller in mind tho. I personally could never imagine playing CTR on any console but Playstation, just like how I would never want to play Smash on anything but a Nintendo console.
I have no problems playing literally any game I want on my PC lmao the only games that feel wrong are arcade machines that had unique controller hardware designed for them
Joseph James
why would you want to play smash is the real question

Jaxon Taylor
This. All those USF-fags are wrong. Did this - honestly I drifted on the first long turn towards the S-turn, but for the rest I just rode on.
Wow, I like that phantom speed boost the oxide ghost gets at the final corners on twilight tour. Really, very nice. >This is our OC donut steel track, think keeping blue flame the entire time is enough? psh kiddo
I'm waiting for the inevitable PC port next year so I can play in 60 FPS, but I'm worried the multiplayer will be dead by then and that any unlocks available now won't be by then because Activision are greedy jews.
>think keeping blue flame the entire time is enough? It is. You need the blue fire on top of the stall in the market area during the first lap, if you never lose it you beat Oxide.
Jaxson Reyes
It's a franchise about mutated animals and monster people, you might as well go all out with the furshit. Especially when it means getting more recognizable side characters over villains.
I hope the datamine is wrong like it was for this GP. I just want Moneybags and Ripto.
I fucking hate Papu's Pyramid online. It's fucking relentless item spam garbage every single time. >Item crates right at the beginning >Immediately after the crates all players are crammed into a tight bottleneck with no way to escape any weapon spam I just had a race where I got squashed, bombed and orbed before reaching the first corner, and this isn't even exceptional in any way. This is how almost every single online race in Papu's Pyramid starts. It's pure fucking garbage, that's all I can say. To make things worse, the track seems to be everyone's favorite for some ungodly reason and every single lobby votes for it without expection regardless of what else is available. Whenever I see Papu's Pyramid in the track selection I always know that's it going to get picked and it's going to be an awful race, and I'm correct every single time.Why the fuck do people like this track so much?
People have been predicting that Beenox altered the CTTR inclusion roster by mixing up characters instead of following game order. October can be an introduction of delayed fan favorites of Brio and Nina. That leaves the inevitable CTTR GP with only Von Clutch and Pasadena as already-established racers, which is why that datamine is believable for Chick and Stew filling up spaces.
I'd hope for Pasadena = speed or accel, Von Clutch = balanced or accel, Chick = balanced or turning, and Stew = accel or speed.
Xavier Wood
I wait every single time when that shit comes up 8th is the safest position until that first turn going up since everyone will have fucked themselves by then After that, you;re free to almost climb up in peace but then you're fucked on the first shortcut
Nolan Robinson
I had a race on there last night where every single time, every single time I tried to use either shortcut I was hit by an invisible beaker mid air then blasted by item spam. I just gave up. I feel like almost every single race I get hit by an invisible beaker mid air at least once. It's a recent thing so I guess people are just getting better at it or something.
Camden Wright
There was a Fake Velo player with the name Velos_Toes. He was kicking everyone's asses and always getting in first all night. Don't let your dreams be dreams.
90% of the time I can get away with a perfect boost at the start and defending myself with a tnt/beaker. I usually get orbed and clocked at the shortcuts though so my win rate on that track is small. Prehistoric Playground is much worse because hitting the first usf is required if you want to win and you'll hit it more often by waiting a few seconds at the start. Such a retarded track design.
Why are git gud shitposters always so dumb? >Thinking online times are comparable to time trial times >"sub 3:05 and you're ok sub 3 to be a man" when the WR is 2:57.81 and there are only nine players on this planet who have been able to get sub-3 minutes on the track without exploits >Doesn't post any of his own gameplay, probably because he sucks at the game Pathetic and sad. Now shoo shitposter.
Jason Sullivan
PP and tracks like it could be fixed by adding even one STP halfway through so it's not completely hopeless if you get fucked by RNG bullshit at the pad
Henry Smith
ignore him, it's the dumbass speedfag that always posts in these threads but refuses to post his PSN for a real race
Angel Ward
Actually they seem to be following the CTTR Motorworld format except out of order.
Motorworld had 5 separate lands: Mystery Island the pirate section, Happily Ever Faster the fantasy section, Tyrannosaurus Wrecks the prehistoric section, Tomb Town the ancient Egypt section, and Astro Land the sci-fi section.
We already got the Egyptian and prehistoric themes out of the way and Spyro is looking to fulfill the fantasy theme. If these GPs are monthly and are scheduled year for 6 months by starting back in July, then that leaves one month open and will probably lead to an original theme for October.
Pasadena = Balanced She's medium size, medium cookiness, medium intelligence. She would fit in alongside Crash and Joe
Von Clutch = Accel Evil mastermind, probably Accel
Chick = Balanced or Accel He's a straight man, he'll either be balanced for how normal he is, or he'll be accel because he's smart.
Stew = Speed He's not very bright, like Tiny, Papu, Zem, and Baby T
Nina = Balanced or Turning Either she will be Balanced to reflect her being in close relation to Cortex, or she will be Turning because she got huge metal HANDS and she likes small fuzzy animals
Josiah Collins
I would nurture and provide for Liz and our hybrid child.
>we could have had lab assistant or hog character >instead we get some disgusting WoW rejects
Michael Gutierrez
thank god right?
Robert Richardson
Pasadena is one of the taller characters, so she's better fit for speed. Von Clutch is a stout character like Cortex, Gin, and Trance, so he's a better fit for accel or balanced. Nina is like N Gin in that she's the evil Coco counterpart, so she's better fit for accel. Chick is the straight man, so he's better fit for balanced or turning. Stew is the medium-sized wacky goofball, so he's fit for accel or speed.
>track that they're bad at literally the only track that people could have any realistic complaints about are dragon mines and turbo track for the exact same reason. they are to be laughed at >lobby votes for coco park, inferno island, crash cove, dingo canyon, tiger temple, jungle boogie when there are far more interesting tracks on offer nah, fuck democracy if the voters have shit taste
Gabriel Evans
She's literally the same height as Komodo Joe
Christopher Myers
Hi. I quit whenever Crash Cove, Coco Park, Jungle Boogie, Inferno Island, Roo's Tubes, Dingo Canyon, or Tiger Temple gets picked.
I can see that, especially when yesterday, this happened: >Thunderstruck, Electon Avenue and Crash Cove in rotation >6 people votes crash cove Like what the hell?
Difficulty-wise it's Crash Cove tier. And on top of that it has an item-dependent shortcut that punishes the first person to use it by letting everyone nearby go in for free with their item intact.
Eli Nguyen
>spend more time in pre-game countdown, loading stage, other players loading in + track cutscene, loading out, and cinematic finale than you do actually racing the track >the track is also item hell these tracks are a waste of my goddamn time. They're okay when it's just you and the AI but when playing with people, they're atrocious
Henry Barnes
So this is the kart you get for buying the Sour Patch stuff. Looks kinda nice.
shortcut is determined by RNG. you can very easily lose because you're the pack leader and you get nothing but nitro crates, meanwhile people behind are able to take the shortcut for free if the person directly in front of them opened it for them.
Joseph Gutierrez
The lose? You don't have to win every race
Tyler Wilson
Or you could just save yourself the trouble and not race on badly designed tracks.
Daniel Jackson
You're wasting more time than anything
Jordan Martinez
races are more fun when the winner is determined by who can keep up the pace without any cockups instead of by who was the least fucked by items. all of these short tracks are called item hell for a reason Yeah there's a larger issue when you have massive tracks where getting fucked by items means the other guy zooms off into the sunset at top speed but the item fuckery is spaced out more
Luis Rogers
Definitely gonna buy it once they go on sale.
Those wheels are made for an Amy loadout
Josiah Perry
Leaving the lobby and joining a new one takes no time. Sitting through a bad track takes ages.
Nicholas Rodriguez
>not for Muh-Gummy
Leo Walker
>Leave lobby >Join new lobby >Host leaves, like you did
That has a chance of happening in the old lobby too. And I still have no desire to play Tiger Temple so even if I did stick around "just to get a race in" I wouldn't enjoy it anyway.
Bros should I be concerned about my switch overheating? I’ve been farming lab basement with a turbo controller since yesterday
Dominic Wilson
the faster than tropy one right now is also obnoxious but at least its possible
Jaxon Cook
I wish this game have a PC port so I can have my anime modded ctr.
Benjamin Rivera
team trance has a huge front, but stickers only go on the side and scaled down.
Brayden Smith
You're such a baby.
Christopher Gomez
>quitting a lobby with Crash Cove, Coco Park, Jungle Boogie, Inferno Island, Roo's Tubes, or Tiger Temple "Waste of time" and "RNG," my ass. You're not fooling anyone. You're obviously just a shitter who gets mad at people beating you without needing USF.
tiny arena is one of the best maps in the game and it's 100% devoid of USF not my fault you need to play on small maps with items everywhere to not feel as bad about your small penis and inability to drive fast
Juan White
There are plenty of good maps without USF. That list doesn't even cover half of the SF maps.
Carson Sanchez
>currently 69th place on the nitro leaderboard nice
>races are more fun when the winner is determined by who can keep up the pace without any cockups instead of by who was the least fucked by items But that's Tiger Temple. The close quarters and 2 rows of item boxes ensures that anyone keeping up in the lap can get into the shortcut. And even without the shortcut, a lot of placements depend on how well you you can drift boost in the hallways. is right. You must just suck ass at shorter tracks.
>come into a thread saying you quit lobbies just because of a track you don't like >people call you a baby >"you suck and have a small penis"
Luke Peterson
>not baiting niggas by pretending you're about to open it up and turn
Benjamin Lopez
>a lot of placements depend on how well you you can drift boost in the hallways. I think you meant to say >a lot of placements depend on whether or not you get hit by an item in the narrow chokepoint where dodging is impossible
Matthew Rogers
Trying to be an internet tough guy is only further proving how much of a shitter you are.
The sour patches apparently only get you the stickers and the tires. Supposedly the kart itself (and the paint), is from some variety of Trident gum.
Gabriel Peterson
>dodging in tiger temple hallways >impossible Now we for sure know you suck at this game.
Lincoln Brooks
>dodge item >get hit by it 1 second later because of latency thanks
Caleb Barnes
Have you played online ever?
Austin Martinez
Genuinely what the fuck were they thinking?
Who asked for this? I feel like it was supposed to be a tongue in cheek joke making fun of the babies in Mario Kart but they actually went through with it and now nobody is laughing.
At least baby Cortex and Tropy would have made sense since they were actually in the games... But this is just grotesque and weird.
I'm just glad they made other characters available for nitro
Jordan Anderson
Of course, and even after getting squashed and clocked into 8th, I can still consistently get the top 2 in tiger temple.
Landon Hernandez
It saved the Prix.
I genuinely believe if you had to play as a baby for the nitro people would have stopped playing a long time ago
Lincoln Thompson
>not knowing how to dodge in hallways Have you only had this game for a week?
Elijah Rodriguez
I really hope the content doesn't show up in the game as locked, but instead just appears when you use the code
We would never fucking hear the end of it if every player had a perminantly locked car in their game because they refuse to buy cross promo material
Jordan Turner
it's not a matter of whether we can or can't get podium on small maps. it's a matter of whether we even enjoy tiny maps in general. why can you not understand this?
Camden King
>make baby crash and baby coco >leave out baby cortex
What even is the point?
Grayson Thompson
I'm just confused why the characters who got new skins in the last GP had skins that got nitro, but the base characters didn't. That was a dumb decision.
Juan Bell
So instead of using the chance to practice how to go about the best routes and learn how to manipulate the RNG like everybody else, you instead decide quit like a petulant infant.
I mean that's what they did with the oxide edition content. You don't see it in your pool unless you actually have them.
Kevin Garcia
I kinda like it. It feels like a small potenti boost for you even if you want to play as someone without a character multiplier.
Dominic Parker
and baby tropy. Last GP had five new characters, so people were expecting this one to as well and that would have been perfect.
Austin Torres
I did want to play as other characters. But I didn't outside of grinding coins offline. But now that I know how easy it was to get the champion kart top 0.5% last GP I don't care anymore.
Gavin Mitchell
>Practice best routes >On the straight line courses What does that even mean? There's no nuance to them.
Andrew Harris
>dude just manipulate RNG by deliberately losing so you can try to make a comeback instead of just staying in first the whole time >dude find a better line than the literal circuit that is the entirety of this track I honestly can't tell the difference between what's bait and what's genuine retardation at this point
Angel White
>not knowing drift and dodge in narrow lines You keep making yourself look worse and worse.
Luis Ramirez
No one in the world has trouble drifting in a straight line. That doesn't require intensive practice.
Moreover, avoiding items in this game is more about prediction than actual dodging. Reliably dodging on reaction with this netcode has a 50/50 shot of actually working.
Nolan Perry
>>dude just manipulate RNG by deliberately losing so you can try to make a comeback instead of just staying in first the whole time
The fact that you immediately think that further proves how much of a shitter you are. The 2 rows of ensures that you or someone around you will get an offensive item to open up the shortcut at least once.
Kayden Evans
>avoiding items in this game is more about prediction than actual dodging So git gud fagit.
Did you forget the part where Tiger Temple has two sections where prediction doesn't matter since you can't move out of the line of fire?
Hudson Moore
*2 rows of item boxes
Hudson Hall
>still get nothing but nitros and the occasional boost there is no RNG manipulation, you tard. Only manipulating your position to get a different item pool, all of which contain these 2 items so no amount of shuffling around will save you from just getting fucked on item draws.
Gabriel Johnson
Thanks. But I gave up. Fuck the load times and travelling through adventure mode.
Already mapped out mate. >What would you even name this child? Troy if its a dude and Laura if its a girl. >Can you support them? Yep. Make and save enough money. >What about school? The kids getting the best education. None of the local riffraff. >You disgust me and your a terrible father. Liz deserves better. Ill make an honest woman out of Liz and a dedicated dad for our hybrid child. Shes worth it.
I can move out of the line of fire and so can just about every other person I play with. Again, you just stink at tracks with narrow sections. Just practice more instead of quitting all the time.
Dominic Hill
don't worry, I've had the game since launch and I just got the platinum paint job yesterday by playing on easy mode
Christopher Martinez
You get beakers and shields frequently when you're ahead. Did you seriously try to lie about items just so you could avoid admitting you're bad at certain tracks?
Parker Howard
If you don't get hit it means the person behind you didn't use their item or they can't aim. You didn't do anything.
what the fuck even is this conversation? I'm going to shit on it with a food analogy >hunger for cooked beef, going to a restaurant >your options nearby consist of steakhouses and burger joints >steakhouses are higher quality but you'll take a bit longer to be fed >burger joint is quick to serve you but mediocre in comparison to a fucking steak >dipshits drag you to the burger joint when you really want that steak >anons on Yea Forums - Food Analogies deride you for not wanting to be forced to eat burgers and to git gud at appreciating the ketchup and pickles that come with the burgers when all you wanted was a medium rare steak.
Luke White
N Trance eggsists.
Bentley Allen
I'm too busy using real characters like baby coco
Angel Russell
I was about to say that Von Clutch isn't evil, but then I remembered how every worker in the park hated him/wanted to escape the park, and probably he has (indirectly) killed more people than half the villains in the Crash series.
Christian Rodriguez
>quitter is so mad he's being called a quitter that he busts out the food analogies
Your analogy stinks. Eating a full meal cannot be compared to a video game race that takes 2-3 minutes.
David Cook
More like >"Jajaja!"
Brody Perry
>>dipshits drag you to the burger joint when you really want that steak Didn't you say that you quit lobbies? Nobody is dragging you anywhere since you quit all the time.
No legendary skins and too lazy to unlock the recolors.
Henry Stewart
Maybe if they didn't cut the track in half...
James Hughes
I want that steak, I'm not going to let dipshits drag me to a burger joint against my volition just because they outnumber me. I'll find friends that appreciate a good grilled meat product but you can all fuck off for trying to force me to appreciate your stupid fucking mustard, processed american "cheese", and limp caramelized onions
>debunked All I learned is that people are really blind to blatant design flaws in CTR's maps.
Isaiah Phillips
HSW proper remake when Beenox?
Luis Hill
>I'm not going to let dipshits drag me to a burger joint against my volition Exactly, that's why you quit lobbies and people call you a quitter.
Levi Robinson
He's balanced, which is the class I use the least at the moment. If he was any other class, I'd use him more
Luke Taylor
No Steve Blum voice clips
Joshua Rodriguez
>Exactly, that's why you quit lobbies and people call you a quitter. >anons on Yea Forums - Food Analogies deride you for not wanting to be forced to eat burgers and to git gud at appreciating the ketchup and pickles that come with the burgers when all you wanted was a medium rare steak.
Aaron Perry
see If other people can learn to be consistently good at those maps then you can too. Stop making excuses.
Guys, I used to be a hardcore speedlet(Ami, Crunch, Big Norm, N.Tropy, Dingodile), but ever since N.Trance finally got back in the pit stop alongside Mad scientist Roo, I haven't been able to play them since. Now it feels stupidly awkward to play speed, to the point where I wonder if I ever will be able to adjust back to it. Help, I miss my speed bros( and Ami)
You already admitted to quitting lobbies, thus you're a quitter. Why do you keep replying to people just saying what you said?
Austin Thompson
>Still playing the microtransaction fuck fest Typical
Jayden Anderson
just let a guy enjoy steak, man doesn't matter if you're indifferent between burgers and steaks or exclusively prefer burgers, it's not your gullet to feed.
Jayden Sanchez
>tfw you hear the Teknee tracks' leitmotif no matter how fast you're going
You eat what we say you eat, so shut up and take this burger down your throat.
Jackson Foster
OK, just don't get mad when people call you steak-obsessed when all you eat is steak.
Jayden Stewart
I had this idea of whenever Emperor Velo gets added they could also add a complete version of Hyper Spaceway BUT between going through the portals you also visit the champion's planets, so there would be a Terra, Barin, Phenomena and Tekni section, each with a statue of the champion of that planet. It would be so long that it would only last 2 laps and it would have a more intense version of the HSW theme.
I guess they could call it "Ultimate Spaceway" or something like that.
Again, nobody's stopping you from only eating steaks. But if quit out every time you're heading toward a burger joint, you're still going to be called a quitter.
Liam Campbell
Thought I was the only one who noticed that shit is kino >Dun dun dun, DAN DAN DAN
That sounds dumb even in universe. The other planets are just pawns for velo's amusement.
Evan Sanders
Kinda meh on it, more interested in the October Halloween GP and the good chance of getting N.Brio and various Halloween based costumes >gothic Coco or any of the other ladies >vampire Crash >Wolfman Pinstripe >creature from the black lagoon Nash
Sebastian Stewart
And Fake Crash going back to the past and fucking everything on sight to the point that even dinos have his genes isn't dumb?
Benjamin Wright
If Assembly Lane is on the menu then I immediately vote for it. Racing to that track's music is feels so good.
I like the idea: >Terra section is really vanilla, maybe one or two boost pads >Barin is filled with traps and high jumps >Phenomena is a tricky section with tight turns, akin to Cortex Castle >Tekni is large and open with USF pads and multiple paths to the finish
Does playing on easy change anything on relic races?
Parker Rivera
yes, it cuts off a few seconds. I think medium is normal, easy cuts off five seconds and hard adds five seconds? But I don't know for sure. easy times are definitely lower.
>Beenox releases a GOTY edition for 60 bucks at the beginning of next year, with all the characters, pre order skins, GP items and the champion kart unlocked, alongside 10k Wumpa coins How do you respond?
