[Nesu] It's so deserted here I could find Criminal Caterpillars. (Post here if you're cool)

[Dajayman]

Lol Eagleye, IL is going laugh at you johning out of MAS again. ;3

 

[Nestec]

I hate the thought of any MK being competitive because of the items. Not a game I'll ever get into, it's just fun every once in a while before I get pissed off because a red shell hits me as I'm about to do a jump and then I fall offstage and then get hit by another red shell and a dude with a star...

LOL

Yes dude, I am 100% with you on that.

:green:

 

[Dajayman]

The worst part is that always happens on the final lap so I end up going from 1-3rd to finishing at 9th.

 

[_clinton]

I wonder, if you could turn certain items on and off in MK would it be less of a pain to play competitively?

 

[Eagleye893]

DAJAY!!! I KNOW!!! I REALLY WANTED TO GO!!!

school/life gets in the way too often. FEBRUARY WILL BE THE MONTH!!! (I hope...)

 

[Yink]

LOL

Yes dude, I am 100% with you on that.

:green:

Try this:

Match starts, I'm in first. 26 seconds later, I get hit with a lightning bolt, hit with a red shell, then a green shell, then I'm in like 6th, a guy with a star hits me, then I'm in 8th, THEN a guy hits me with a bullet bill.

Ahh, Mario Kart.

Errgh, most definitely!

This would be such a nice feature.

LOL, it's all bad

:green:

 

[Dajayman]

I don't play heavy weights anymore in MK because having low acceleration after getting hit by the other 11 racers' items is just salt in the wounds. Now I go Koopa Troopa with a high acceleration car.

 

[Nestec]

I really wish they would have kept the unique-items feature. I liked being the only one in a race to have access to Bob-ombs, or the Koopa Shell. Plus, it added more differentiation between the characters.

:green:

 

[PSI.kick]

you guys go manual right?

 

[Dajayman]

Yeah, although some character's special item was trash compared to other's...

And of course I go manual, I ain't a noob!

 

[PSI.kick]

i only go auto when im on bikes because i cant drift with them, it throws me off.
then again i dont play mario kart ever, so...

 

[_clinton]

Baby Mario and Baby Luigi for DD had a pretty broken item IMO. And Toad, and the 3 shell thing from Koopa Troopas.

Plus I just liked the team up option in DD as well actually, kind of wish MKW didn't take a step forward, but then took two steps back as far as game play options went.

 

[Yink]

Mario Party (old) > Mario Kart imo.

 

[_clinton]

So, how does Mario Party change up its gameplay to keep it sort of fresh with each new game again?

 

[PSI.kick]

they keep them all exactly the same so they know people will like it.

In competitive play, items are turned to strategic so there aren't any Blue Shells, Bullet Bills, etc, only things like Mushrooms, Green Shells, etc.

 

[_clinton]

Ah, maybe I was too quick to sell that copy of MKW then.

 

[BluePSI]

Back you competitive devil! back!
*throwing holy water at the MK wii competitive discussion*

 

[Z'zgashi]

It burns!!!

 

[ToferTheHuman]

MK Wii, you're in 7th place?
BULLET BILL!
Now you're in 1st


skill baby.

 

[PSI.kick]

[race just began] wow im in 12'th already?
[5 seconds later] awww yeaaah 1st baby
[2 minutes later] I'm in 9th?! **** this. *ragequit*

 

[Dajayman]

Bullet Bill requires intense amount of skill, you need frame perfect and pixel perfect control to use Bullet Bill. ;3

 

[Yink]

The best item you can ever get in competitive MKW is the Lightning Bolt. Why? Because if you just use Funky Kong and are smart with turns and things like that (and mini boosts and wheelies) you can make a noticeable catch-up. After that, just use the Bolt whenever you think it's best, like over the jumps in Rainbow Road so people just die.

That or the Star. Plus, did you guys know, if someone is holding a Lightning Bolt you won't see it in the item roulette when you pick up an item?

 

[Dajayman]

Yink is totally a competitive MKW player. ;3

 

[Yink]

I "used" to be. I did pretty well too. Gotta love that 9999 VR. <3

But I stopped a long time ago, just kinda got tired of it.

 

[Dajayman]

I get tired of MKW after like 20 minutes of playing, lol. Still I looked into competitive play a little bit since I like to be somewhat decent at any multiplayer game, especially popular ones like MKW. I didn't like losing to my ex at MKW.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

I thundered into Bullet Bill one time.








skill baby.

 

[Nestec]

That or the Star. Plus, did you guys know, if someone is holding a Lightning Bolt you won't see it in the item roulette when you pick up an item?

Wow...that's pretty cool, I didn't know that.

How do competitive players use this to their advantage?

:green:

 

[BluePSI]

I suck at mk wii

 

[Yink]

Wow...that's pretty cool, I didn't know that.

How do competitive players use this to their advantage?

:green:

Basically, if you're in a clan of people, someone stays behind to sand bag (as in, pick up the better items, such as the Bolt). Then, you can figure out when the Lightning will be most useful.

Basically, the Lightning is a "Get out of jail free" card because you can use it to get tons of your clan in the top 6. It's saved for special moments.

 

[Kyronexx]

ALMOST LAG FREEE GAME WTF NINTENDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*looks at brawl and kicks it, ricochets of wall and gets hit in the face with it*

 

[Z'zgashi]

ALMOST LAG FREEE GAME WTF NINTENDO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

... *goes ganon and utilts*

 

[Chuee]

Guys meta nite is the best character in MKWee

 

[Dajayman]

Eww, it's a Poocas main...

 

[BluePSI]

Oh dear, not again...

 

[_clinton]

Lucas can recover.

 

[Dajayman]

It doesn't matter if he's good at recovering if he's so bad that he's being sent offstage all the time. ;3

 

[Z'zgashi]

Just hide in the ghetto then jump out of the shadows with a bucket, no more recovery for lucas.

 

[Dajayman]

Or jump at him with PSI Magnet. Poocas can't do the same to us as easily since he has a hitbox on his Magnet. Finally something Ness' Magnet excels at over Poocas'! ;3
