can someone tl;dr me on why people are freaking out about MKW? i've never been a mario kart person but picked up the bundle and have actually ended up dumping around 60 hours into it so far which is a lot since in my entire time owning the switch 1 i only played about 25 hours of mario kart 8
it's not that there's nothing else to play i just actually enjoy it that much. knockout tour is based online.
the actually racing can be annoying with 24 players but it's really not that bad, i can still consistently win so i know it's not pure luck
the intermission tracks are lame and if that makes you want to play MK:8 fair enough, but i cant imagine a future where 4 years from now this is still a huge issue. i mean i get being annoyed by it but it seems like its causing some weird mass sperg-meltdown where people are saying the game is shit and dead as a result, like, it's fucking mario kart, it's not that big of a deal
>>
>>720937719
the actual* racing
as in on vs mode to be clear, instead of knockout tour
>>
>>720937719
It's the intermission tracks as the main culprit, ever since they patched out being able to do 3 lap tracks via selecting random people have quickly started disliking the game because they want to do 3 laps around the course and not 1 straight line and 1 lap around the course.

I can't really blame them because the work around is to organize on Discord if you want to play 3 lap tracks but Nintendo doesn't allow Discord on their platform because they're trying to sell people Game Chat instead so it's an extra level of unneeded tedium that people don't want to interact with when they wanna do a quick race or 2.

Yeah I mean as I said that's fair if it makes you want to play MK:8 instead, as it is annoying. But I guess I just find it weird how it's causing a massive sperg meltdown where people are saying the game is shit or something as a result, it's really a great game otherwise and I *have* to imagine at some point there will be some update that changes things in a way that this will not be an issue.

They say it's shit because Nintendo patched out the way to consistently play the regular tracks instead of giving them what they wanted. Think of it from the perspective of someone who likes Mario Kart enough to buy an entire console for it, ditching the 3 lap formula that has been in place since Super Mario Kart on the SNES is a major departure from the formula for an open world they don't do anything in after the initial novelty wore off.

Even if Nintendo gives an update that fixes it, if it's locked behind a new mode in DLC then there's going to be a massive amount of complaining since they took away the free way to do something only to charge money for it.

It just seems like such a minor gripe to be *this* mad over though. The game is simply trying (in a retarded way I'll concede) to do something different. It's annoying, but not something to lose your mind over, and honestly is likely to be changed down the line anyways.
>Think of it from the perspective of someone who likes Mario Kart enough to buy an entire console for it
Alright I'm trying to be mindful of this perspective but, to be honest with you, and you can maybe call me a bootlicker, but I just have a hard time sympathizing with the crowd that buys a console solely for Mario Kart without doing any research on the title. You would've known any day after day 1 that this was a flaw of the game if you looked up any information.
This game is coming off of the back of Mario Kart 8, which is on the same console, and has the most tracks in any of the games by far. Go play it if you miss it that badly in the meantime.
>Even if Nintendo gives an update that fixes it, if it's locked behind a new mode in DLC then there's going to be a massive amount of complaining since they took away the free way to do something only to charge money for it.
That's a hypothetical but yeah I'd agree it'd be shitty to charge for this feature if thats what ends up happening. Then I'd understand the fury there is now. But as of now, I just think people are a bit too angry about it all, not even that there's no valid reason for any critiques or anything.

It's a foundational change to the formula that is legitimately a step back to push an open world that Mario Kart players don't care about.

> I just have a hard time sympathizing with the crowd that buys a console solely for Mario Kart without doing any research on the title.
They had the game they wanted until Nintendo patched it out, they got bait and switched which is why they're mad. They were able to consistently play with 3 track races via using random for a month or so until Nintendo revoked that ability. They spent $500 to have the way they want to play removed from the game, when I put it that way can you understand why they're upset?

>It's a foundational change to the formula
Stop. You're being retarded. It's making this foundational change coming off of the back of a game that just adhered to that formula harder in quantity and almost non-arguably in quality than before. Just trying to do that again would be fucking boring, even with the new gameplay mechanics. I'd say it's preferable they went for something more ambitious.
I'm not saying that this means their choice was better, because obviously the option could've easily been there, but it was at least a choice made with consideration and carried through the entire games design. And if you dislike that, that's fine, and to be clear, I just want to ensure it's known that no one is arguing that it's great between us, or that you should just accept it.
However, the amount of mental anguish and "ITS OVER FOR NINTENDO, MKW IS A DISASTER" posting about something so likely to be changed anyways seems insane and driven by mental illness.
>They had the game they wanted until Nintendo patched it out, they spent $500 to have the way they want to play removed from the game, when I put it that way can you understand why they're upset?
It's not patched out, it's just less likely to happen in public lobbies. Private hosts are easy to find where you can still have it happen 100% of the time.
To be clear, THIS IS ANNOYING, and I can understand basic frustration about that. But no, I actually have no fucking clue how Mario Kart is inducing this level of rage from people online, even despite the fact that it's slightly harder to play traditional lapped tracks. If you spent $500 SPECIFICALLY to play Mario Kart, you're not even likely to be the type of person actually affected by this.

>Stop. You're being retarded
If you can't understand why Nintendo fans, some of the most autistic gamers out there who love the fact the formulas are mostly unchanged, are upset about a formula this classic and basic being changed let alone being taken away from them then I'm not sure what to tell you. That is THE racing game formula, driving in straight lines is fucking boring in comparison.

The only way to get the change they want back is to bitch about it dude, the Chinese and Koreans do this constantly and it works. Or an recent American would be the Cracker Barrel logo. Taking it up the ass and not saying a word is the worst thing they can do if they want to get what was taken from them back.

>It's not patched out, it's just less likely to happen in public lobbies.
It was near 100% before the change so yes, it was patched out. The way people have played the game for their entire lives was removed unless they do private lobbies via Discord which makes it so it's not a game you can just hop on and play a few rounds of.

> If you spent $500 SPECIFICALLY to play Mario Kart, you're not even likely to be the type of person actually affected by this.
They are the people most impacted by it.

>>720943245
>you just listed multiple reasons why it's worse than 8 deluxe but you don't see the problem?
What? Having more traditional lapped tracks than any other game in the series isn't the only measure for which MK is best. Personally, I value the originality of MKW's concept relative to the rest of the series more. The open world is a really cool idea, well utilized by Knockout Tour, which is the most fun I've had with Mario Kart since 64.
It's annoying for lapped tracks to be inconvenient, yes, but I've been tired of that formula for a while anyways, so it's not really a loss for me at all.
The gameplay is significantly better to me though, which is most important. MK:8 controls great and all, but I just prefer MKW. The animations and expressiveness of everything is in part responsible for this, and everything feels more alive as a result. Older Mario Kart entries feel stiff and sterile by comparison.

Are you interested in having a conversation at all or are you just going to repeat the same stupid fucking thing every single response? No one is confused why there is any frustration or annoyance. I've repeatably expressed that so repeatedly so that your baby brain can comprehend it and you still manage to ignore it somehow. What I'm talking about is the mental illness meltdown over the change.
>It was near 100% before the change so yes, it was patched out.
It was patched out of ALWAYS being a chance to happen, sure. If you want to say it was effectively patched out even, sure. I just think it's dishonest to suggest it's entirely removed.
>They are the people most impacted by it.
No, because if you're ACTUALLY spending $500 on a console, SOLELY for Mario Kart World, you are then likely someone who wants to play in competitive private lobbies anyways, where you're going to be fine.

>Are you interested in having a conversation at all or are you just going to repeat the same stupid fucking thing every single response?
I mean the answer is truly as simple as that, which is why I'm repeating it. People that hate change are experiencing a major departure and one that is...not great since the intermissions truly are straight lines.and the meta is to sandbag a bit for better items because when the course is a straight line it's much harder to win via skill as opposed to when you can do your shortcuts 3 times on a regular track The spergs that have played countless hours of Mario Kart are the ones that are going to have already played MKW a lot and those are the ones saying the state of the game is bad because they've played 500-1000 hours already and have experienced it more than casuals have. They had over 60 hours on the first week it was out.

>>720944429
>I just think it's dishonest to suggest it's entirely removed.
Selecting random was essentially selecting an entirely different game mode before the change since it was an 100% chance to get a 3 lap course. That's why I think it's correct to call it patched out because you can no longer play that game mode anymore. It would be a non issue if Nintendo had also introduced a way to always vote for a 3 lap track at the same time but that didn't happen.

>>720944429
>you are then likely someone who wants to play in competitive private lobbies anyways, where you're going to be fine.
You need to have time set aside for that however, as I already stated you can't simply drop in and play a couple games when you have some time to kill in the same way you were able to do initially.

I appreciate that you do seem like an actual human responding, that's rarer here these days. I wrote a response disagreeing with some of what you were saying gameplay wise but I realized that wasn't actually what we were talking about anyways. The tone of your replies makes it sound like you're defending the outrage as reasonable, but regardless of if you are or not, you're providing what you perceive as the answer, which I also appreciate.
Honestly, from my perspective it's just really obnoxious that the online sentiment for the game is so wildly negative if these are the only reasons why. I understand the public frustration and the ask for change, but it's annoying that all online conversations are so coated in overwhelming hatred for a feature that, assuming is eventually changed, will have only been an issue for a comparatively short portion of this games life that no one will ever care about again afterwards, yet dictated 99% of the online discussion and sentiment about the game regardless.

The meta for all multiplayer games with pvp is basically
>honeymoon period where everyone is happy
>people get sick of the game and want changes
>changes happen
>another honeymoon period
>people get sick of the game and want changes
repeat

If they weren't complaining about this, it'd be complaints about how a certain thing is too good and it's ruining all their matches. Online discourse for the majority of pvp games is in a similar state where it's overly invested people complaining because the game is basically their life. Nobody hates LoL more than LoL players and that's true for most competitive games(which is silly to call MK that but it's a PvP focused game so it technically is one).

Mario Kart is to Racing Games what Smash Bros is to Fighting Games, with that being said, Mario Kart World is to Mario Kart/Racing Games what Brawl was to Smash Bros/Fighting Games, it's fun experience with a lot of cool stuff to explore but the actual racing feels like a draw back to 8, it still works, but it feels like they hit it perfect in 8 and cant replicate it, just like how brawl was awkward to actually fight in compared to 8, if you're casual and dont give a shit you'll like it, but if you were passionate about racing in 8 you might not like it
>>
>>720948709
Yeah, things didn't use to be like this but I think it's more to do with everyone watching streamers now so they want to min/max and play the most meta stuff like the streamers do. It's even infected single player games where people need to watch a youtube video to find out the strongest Elden Ring build so that they can use it in PvE. That's how you had everyone flocking to the moonveil and people telling them that they didn't beat the game.
