Current demo session is up for another hour.
Paddock doko?
Lobby for this?
9J4X97Let's make an attempt out of this.Fresh lobby
Even with a trillion boosts I don't get how you're supposed to control this thing.Still won though.
how dare nintendo deny me my hats
Any lobby with more than 10 people? I don't want to play with half bots
>>725928694shoutout the schizo in the last thread that paid an extra 10 bucks just to have the hats that he didn't get lol
1LCBCSCANON LOBBY
>Only an hour leftI couldn't even feel the time pass...
>>725928762not that schizo but i did the same thingalso protip for anyone who's selling a game on the eshop: price it for 520 yen around when a major Nintendo release is happening because idiots like me who buy from the eshop instead of getting a code will have 20 yen left over usually and want to spend that rather than lose it when switching my account back to my home region, and the cheapest eshop card amazon.co.jp sells is for 500 yen so i usually grab one of those and buy a random game that's on sale for 520 yen
>>725928347Join >>725928801 instead
>>725929051oh, and especially do this around when a first party switch game and the vouchers program is going to end since people can only get those with eshop money, they're cheaper than buying codes, and those will cause that same 20 yen remaining balance
Is there gonna be another demo time soon? I guess it comes out soon anyway
>>725929320See >>725929043
>>725929320Later today, 9 hours from now.
>>725929051>>725929286do you guys actually buy a whole other game you weren't going to buy just to save like 15 cents?
>>725929429Americans love penny pinching over extremely pointless shit while wasting money on frivolous things it’s our culture.>gas is up 10 cents society has fallen>make sure you get gas by work anon, it’s 5 cents cheaper there
>>7259288014 dpot
I don't care if the Vampire Star is bad, as an emo faggot I am contractually obligated to love it.
>When you pussy out of the stadium you were the most suited to because you knew you had a rival that would beat you>they also pussied out and chose the same stadium as youBros...
>>725929692I like vampire star. Just pick one of the melee modes
>>725929692What is even its gimmick?
Damn, the slick star can fly. And FUCK, vampire is fragile
>>725929797daroach
Please leave so I can join.
>>725929429both of those are me, but yeah because I'm greedy (and poor)
Second lobby?
>Had my ride broken twice
fucking susie in battle chariot stop killing me
Last match of this period, godspeed anons.
What does Charge even do? The battery.
Did the entire lobby pick laser damn
>>725931593I chose Gourmet and won.
>>725931568I think is increases the speed of charging when holding a
>>725931568makes you reach maximum charge boost faster
>>725931568Makes the boost gauge charge faster
>kicked out of the last possible match on round start.Thanks Sakurai
How's the Bull treating you?
It's over
I love the Starman so much.
>get disconnected on the final gameOh well...GGs everyone.
It's over already damn... was fun, I'm starting to get better, I don't suck as much as in the lobby anymore, can't wait for release
Gonna have to try the Vampire Star with other characters besides the raton. I'm digging it.
>>725932243I feel like farming other players might be more worth it than farming chests.
What was the rat’s base gimmick? And did people find the special useful? Didn’t really get much out of it myself
This stat spread with 111 total powerups was the best I managed to get this specific test window. And with the Starman I could pretty much speed through the air and fly forever. Felt really satisfying.
>>725932730If you get the right air ride yeah, killing one or two player give you an insane boost. Using a copy abilities or item during Dynablade or the giant Wheelie was a goldmine for farming players, the event itself was bonus
>>725933129>that 1 glide downpleb
>>725933269Dumb magnet gave it to me. Was sad.
Is this distant sky island the only random element of Skyah itself? Seems like this island only exists in like half the City Trails or something.
>>725933129>usually gimp around with 30 to 50 upgrades>get one time close to 100>fighting star with HP, attack, defense and everything>not a single fighting based arena
>>725932304try cuckle joe and meta knight next demo
>>725933129I like that the stats and HP bar can just go offscreen if they're high enough
Why does Tank Star feel sluggish it wasn't like this last week
>>725933859I had the opposite experience, it felt better this week
Wing Star vs Paper StarThoughts?
>>725934113Paper has better turning and boost, but Wing is slightly more tanky
Shit game.
>no Rick Shit demo
>>725933859Did they nerf the overall speed? everything felt slower and thus much easier to control
>>725934428They're trying to balance him. He's too busted as he is now.
>>725934113I feel like paper is faster and more maneuverable but with less lift and obviously more fragile. I enjoy both. This game does a great job of making every star feel good to use despite having a significant drawback or two. In Air Ride, there were many I’d outright avoid
I was thinking about this game, but with how disappointing Mario Kart and DK and now Metroid are, I'm wondering if there will be enough content to justify the $100 price tag.
>bull tankMore like bull cock! I suck on this thing! The slow acceleration on the tank stars is brutal
>>725934958>muh contentsneed
just woke up, is there anything new?>>725933129I hope they fixed some of those stats because og Air Ride apparently had some design weaknesses for stats like boost charge and glide
>>725934278but enough about sonic crossdressers
>>725936394This run swapped out 2 characters. now you can pick Waddle Dee normal and Daroach. Also the stars that appear are different, along with a new one that wasn't in the directs outside of the gummy section. Its called the vampire star, its stats are meh but it auto-attacks enemies to temporarily buff itself and can steal copy abilities from people.
I just want to chill in the /v/addock with mah niggas
>>725936583But Crossdressers is fun
Why is meta knight so ass in this game
>>725937195Sakurai is still punishing him over his brawl performance
>>725937195He’a good man. Good balance of flight and attack. Auto attack makes breaking boxes fast, and his special makes getting to the garden and secret island easy as fuck. You should have a ton of powerups every round
sorry lads I'm catching you guys in the next period. That is around 7pm my time, much more manageable than bloody 3am. Has anything changed? Have preorder chads gotten their hats? If so if I preorder from the eshop can I get mine too?
>>725937195But he's not bad though.His auto-attack is extremely useful, makes breaking boxes really fast and helps in combat. It more than makes up for his weaker stats.
>>725934428>>725934428What do you mean no Rick?!
>>725938506They got rid of Rick and someone else. They also swapped a few of the stars around.Added Daroch, Waddle Dee. The unnamed star is the Vampire Star, it's solid unless you're playing as a character who has an auto-attack (the star itself has one, making the character's redundant)
>>725938632Replaced with a superior rodent
>fell asleep with an hour to spare>woke up 2 hours later>next session in 8 hoursgoddammit, if I overshoot my sleep and miss the start im gonna be pissedah well 4 days away anyway. im hype
>>725938506Rick has been replaced by Daroach, and the new vampire dtar has been added, also waddle dee replaces starfy. The hatsvare in but a bit glitched for some peole, personally got mine but some people didn't
>>725938678whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyGuess I'll have to use someone else. But just so you guys know. I'm a 1 toon kind of guy.
>>725938753check the schedule, there are 2 more occassions
>>725938506Rick and Scarfy are gone. Daroach and Waddle Dee are here instead. Slick Star, Bull Tank, and Vampire Star (the fish one that wasn't officially revealed) are now available.They seem to be having issues sending out the preorder hats. I didn't get mine.
>>725938772>SuccususieOh no
>TFW no more Rick
>>725934458Yeah it felt waaaaaaay slower than last time. Last week it felt like the game was on crack. Musta slowed it down after to many casuals complained.
Well, back to replaying Pikmin 4 for the 7th time till the next run.
did i really miss the daroach bj's?? tell me that's not true
>latest system update lets you play with single joycon in vertical >literally lets you change the stick orientation and play one handed without needing the 2nd joycon connectedoh my fucking days, FINALLYOnly sakurai could push for a system change for a feature that benefits his game specifically
>>725938837they know the game takes a bit of time to burrow into your consciousness, fuck yeah
>>725938978Did it? It felt the same to me, maybe your brain got used to the speed?
>>725939019>Sakurai sees what Susie has been up to>"Let them play one-handed"We don't deserve this man
Normally when they bring back somwthing from my childhood, they completely rape it. Not only is this as good as the original, it's better. I can't believe it.
>>725939846Sakurai truly loves his fans
Maybe I'm tripping but the machines felt really different this time. Way less chaotic.
>>725939846It's insanely good, holy shit. The fact that /v/ unanimously loves it and it has left redditors completely assblasted is just the icing on the cake.
>Still no Kirby RPGI want to see a game where you get to spend more time with these silly little fucks. They just ooze personality and charm.
>>725939846it helps that the original was mostly incomplete
>>725940769Kind of surprising they haven't done a Mario & Luigi type game already
>>725939310It felt a lot faster to me. But that's probably because I was playing Air Ride over the last week.>>725939846Sakurai is one of the few developers I genuinely trust. Smash Ultimate was a bit of a letdown, I'll admit, but most of the budget absolutely went toward the characters and trailers.
>the air riders rap has different languageshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq61J9avqzAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfYWJlNmMeAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyou14vJjOk
>>725941119I'd rather have a Kirby RPG than any more Mario RPGs.
>>725942067I was expecting german to be male, was surprised on the female voice
>will be 2 hours late to the next testYou guys BETTER have lobbies open and you BETTER not be doing any fag shit in there
>>725942101I'd rather have good original kirby spin offs than the slop HAL has shat out like Kirby Fighters and Kirby Clash, just both worse versions of the actual great kirby combat systems in the mainline titles. Dream Buffet was good because it actually did something different. Fighters and Clash are just asset reuse abuse.
>>725942101neat
Why the fuck do you get so many upgrades when ranking dead last in a challenge.Might as well try to get kicked out quickly.
>>725943513jesus christ this guy is terrible
>>725943513Because Nintendo wants people to not be sad they lost.
>>725943590well yeah he has to have a fucking facecam on 24/7
>>725943603ok, but between getting 3rd place and last you are just wasting your time>>725943590yeah, it didn't occur to him to switch out hist compact star until the last minute
>>725942067I hope USA and LatAm get their own version too instead of the Euro and spaniard ones.
>>725943775>>725943513I think that it's more of all losers get the same stuff, the winner gets tons more
>>725943513Incentivize more people to do it. Dont want people skipping entirely
>>725943513it looks like all those power ups were just in the volcano and nobody else had gotten them yet
>>725943513Lots of upgrades are given in order to encourage people to take part in the challenge, and more people taking part makes it more fun for everyone.You're encouraged to try to win because you get even more upgrades if you place better. Sure, you could always throw the game and go back to scrounging around the map, but if you take a risk and pull off a win you'll get more than you would have by throwing. People who don't take that risk are defeatist cowards.
this is my most broke run so far
>>725937418>>725938576>Meta Knightfag anon is peddling his lame ass strat again.Okay bro, keep doing what you're doing, you'll be free food for Knuckle Joes and Starmen.
I am mildly sad the TV in the paddock isn't just footage of the game happened at the moment in the lobby. I do appreciate it pulling up the winners though.
I hope the My Machine customization appears in City Trial. I would love to make a custom version of a vehicle for each rider.
>>725945264It will be in the final game according to the direct
>>725945149>schizo feverishly conjuring boogeymensick, love when you can’t discuss a game because someone mentally ill
>>725945640Would be cool if the my ride things shuffled between everyone and you'd be able use other people's machine from the room
So how's the online and lobby system? Gonna be trying it when its live later tonight again
>>725943513My goal is to one day go into one of these with the paper star and win
>>725946104Connection has mostly been fine. I've seen a rare few with shit connection but its pretty uncommon.The lobby is cute and has a lot of fun little animations. Not much to do in it besides watch the game and wait around emoting but it works for a place to lobby up. Also if you WANT to use the shitty voice app thing there is a way to ask people to tune into it.
>>725946927Wait what? You mean gamechat? I thought were spamming it to be funny
>>725944636if you go in there with a compact star, might as well throw.Only cowards fight battles they can't win.They should reward you for achieving something not just participating at all times.>>725945036does the game still cap at 160?
Why would they get rid of Rick when people were having so much fun with him? I didn’t play Rick but I’m interested in Daroach because I loved Squeak Squad as a kid.
>>725946927No wonder people have been asking about voice chat so much. Thank god Sakurai didn't have it as proxy chat in lobbies thanks to the switch having a built in mic feature.
>>725947993because people were already metafagging with him and they want people to play other things
>>725947993First taste is free
is there a secret spot below the map?
>>725946927You can also get a blowjob from Susie so it's pretty good
>>725949674Sakurai's hidden sex dungeon
>>725949674Thats Hydra and Dragoon's break room.
Did they update the playtest at all before this weekend?if there were no balance changes then I'm a bit concerned
>>725950139What balance changes do you want already?
>>725950427the first playtest seemed pretty poorly balanced. I haven't played yet this weekend because I was asleep
>>725948919Is Rick actually the best character in the game? I thought people were just picking him because he’s cute.
>>725950552>game you dont know how to play is "poorly balanced"hmmm
>>725950552Idk seemed like i could get a win as any character even regular waddle dee.
>>725938772>the reason hats aren’t available was because they set their availability to be when the full game releases instead of during the playtest itselfAlways reassuring even the most competent can still make comical blunders like this good chance they’re unable to fix it in before the test ride ends
>>725943590I only watched him for like half an hour and already hate him. >completely ignores some events, even though he says he didn't see them before>stays forever on compact star>doesn't switch machines after realizing he can't control the current one very well>wastes special ability, spamming spin all the time>never engages with other players other when crossing pathsHe seems to understand most mechanics of the game just to ignore them the very next round. I felt like getting rage baited.Probably just plays it because it's new and hot>>725950682>bestthat's way too early to say without all characters, stadiums and machines unlocked. He just excels at most things other than flying and the ability is some bullshit. Jack of all trades characters just don't do very well in 16 player lobbies where everyone picks their specialization.>>725950953a lot of players are just really bad still. Give the game a week and it will be a lot more sweaty
>>725950686it's been out for a grand total of less than 2 days, you don't know how to play either
>>725945036>>725947856
>>725951240exactly, which is why its retarded to assume theres any sort of balance issue this early in and not people just not knowing how to play, reminds me of how people would say someone like king k rool was broken when smash ult launched only for him to be a mid/low tier when people figured out how to play the damn game
>>725949674It's Haltmann's hiding place.
>>725951162Idk if this game will get to a "everyone picks the same character" point because if its feasible to win with anyone most people will just pick their favorites.Even then its 4 winners between 4 stadiums that you get to pick the one you have an advantage in, i dont think this game will have a meta problem.
>all these battle chariot picsI know who I’m targeting first besides starman
>16 players>usually meaning that at least one person may be on the main railway at any given time>get invincibility candy and supercharge tank since they stack>absolutely destroy someone from behind who is playing as Kirby>watch the deathcam as Kirby does his best impression of that one guy who jumped into lava in that movie VolcanoAbsolute kino
>>725952618
>>725952737I have a vid and oddly enough the KO was on >>725952432 Starman
Forgot about the first session last night and I'm so mad, I'm going non-stop for the next one to make up for the loss
Do you get any attack with gold waddle dee or is it just iframes for a long time
>>725951162Jack of all trades end up having a good shot, cause button dash and gourmet race punish you for being too fast and having poor handling
So what are the chances that the Robobot is in this game? How would it work as an air ride machine?
>>725953274It gives you contact damage iir.I think all the "just run forward" specials are actually offensive in some way, dedede gets a wider spin attack, meta knight gets stronger proximity attacks, and even susie gets a much stronger spin attack i feel like, i always seem to do like double damage when i use it in a derby.
>>725953382If I was allowed to dream, I'd want the robobot to be able to hit hard, and use copy abilities to completley change it's gameplay
I mostly just use whatever machine I find first.Outside of a couple I actively dislike and replace (formula).
>>725953382I kind of wish it was one of kirbys specials, like its two ultra abilities, a special one time use one, and then fucking forward twice with fire. Should have been wheel robobot.
>>725953698formula star will get buffed like bulk star inshallah
Bulk Star is so good now. Love it.
>>725954019Unlike most machines that are powered by love and friendship the bulk star runs on diesel.
How long until the next demo?
>>7259547084:45
>>7259547084 hours 45 minutes
>>725954589Bulk Star runs on family.
I need my Rick fix
why am I extremely slow during some city trials?
So what characters do you think are still hidden in the game?
>>725955086You need top speed ups, both top speed and turn are super useful for just city trialing.
>>725952618>>725952865Hell yeah
>>725955086slow rider+slow machine=get fucked
>>725955148The mystery ride from the story mode's probably unlockable.02 being a boss also makes me believe either Adeline or Ribbon could also be playable.
>>725955260kirby is fucking dead...
>>725955086quit playing Meta-knight, his top speed is atrocious.
>>725955373Praying morpho knight gets in so we can have a knight without fuckass top speed.
>>725955148Adeleine (Ribbon gets demoted to road trip assist)One of the mage sisters, or it's like the Koopalings in Smash Bros where each one is an alt slot
>>725955552I feel like we would've seen the mage sisters already if they were in.
>>725955148This reminds me, it feels great not having to dodge spoilers for the game due to there being no datamines.
>>725955148Efilin has to be in the game, it makes no sense not to he can have a unique playstyle and hes from the most recent best selling game in the franchise.
It really feels like the bull tank is way way worse than the battle chariot. That turning speed is just so bad.
>>725955902Well its a tank its whole gimmick is that it can only really turn on boosts while not losing as much speed charging a boost.
Reminder you can still play all the tutorials before the online test session
>>725956142
>>725956142i did the very first tutorial and it was so obnoxious with how repetitive it was i decided to never touch them again.
How can one game have so much FUCKING SOUL????https://youtu.be/GHkDxb7v5k4
>>725956496man, British people should not be allowed to talk or sing.
the inside of the game box looks really cool
>>725956886Im looking for whatever the last machine is and i cant find it, guess its a story related legendary machine.
>>725956565You arent dancing to that bro?
>>725956496>br*tconquered vermin gtfo the internet
>>725957019definitely not the 4kids version you posted. here's what you should be jamming tohttps://youtu.be/2oaeHVAET3o
>>725957448Sorry but no, brexit means brexit.
Going to be a hundred percent. I still haven't really learned this game enough but it's enjoyable for what it is. I'd say it should of been $50 just like Sonic Crossworlds (Base game). I'm really hoping the Single player content can keep me invested because other then buying it for Sakurai and to play with friends and /v/
>>7259574484kids would have just outright replaced it with their own original scores to be fair
>>725957663>$50you mean $60?
>>725957663It feels more like a novelty to me, I cant see myself spending 60 on it and spending hours with it.
>>725957870damn
>>725955086The Compact Star is actually decent early on for stat collecting, so be sure to use it for the first 40 seconds to a minute if your other options have less acceleration and turning. You should focus on top speed collecting, but also getting more turn and boost (boost helps with acceleration at the cost of decceleration if you are at your top speed) doesn't hurt and will help you swap to other vehicles a bit more.Best stat collectors early game historically are:Swerve Star (best acceleration in the game, decent weight and box damage)Wheelie Bike (best turning, extremely good acceleration)Warp Star (basically a better Compact Star without except for Turning)Wagon Star (sturdy, just doesn't have boost)I would like to say that in my experience the standard Tank and Chariot also feel like they are good early on in the same regard.
>>725959225Battle Chariot one shots blue boxes, other stars need not apply.
>>725951519if it's true what some character stat screen showed, then characters can have easily 50% stat bonuses over other characters.In a 16 player lobby where 8 players pick specialized characters, then your chances are getting slim not to face one in 4 stadiums.They are at they are at a clear advantage and right now Rick and Starman covers most of the stadiums.That only leaves some less stat focused stadiums where anyone can win
>>725959785the "choose your stadium" screen is a mistake, i hope it isn't as bad in the final game. Way too easy to just always build for flight and win without interacting with anyone.
>>725959785Yeah but those points are not as important as the stats in city trial, ive won derbys as waddle dee who has the worst stats for that kind of stadium.
>>725957870$60 sounds fair too. I think the team should of at least had some Air Ride courses with multiplayer enabled to showcase the races. >>725958163That feeling is more then reasonable. It's the type of game where it either clicks or doesn't. It reminds me alot like Kid Icarus Uprising and the multiplayer in that game but with top spinners.
>>725959495I found Battle Chariot was slow to start and had issues early on collecting stats in a given area efficiently.
>>725957448Actually for /v/ it'shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq61J9avqzA
>>725957010it's likely a bike or chariot which might just be that thing>>725960018you are playing with noobs. You can win with compact star. Come back 2 weeks after release
>>725960326I hope it has a niche that isn't overshadowed by hydra, either way it seems like its going to be good at turning if its going to be unique compared to the other two.I don't think its a noob thing, stats are the determining factor for stadiums so as long as you can get decently powered up with any character then i think its going to be balanced.
didn't sakurai confirm in the first direct that there'll be city trial matches where you're forced into a specific stadium like the old games? I'm pretty sure he said that along with the bait stadium predictions
>>725960867yeahhe also said its an option you can toggle
>>725960867I think its an option, so if there are public paddocks you should be able to play whatever rules you want, like 100% 16 player boss battle. or 16 player target glide
>>725960991>>725961006It'd be cool if there's a way to have both stadium settings active to mix things up. Maybe its the default for the full game
>>725960867I think he also mentioned that the stadiums in team battles are also forced since a team could cheese a win by them all picking the same stadium and beating the few guys from the other team if they had the option to pick.
>>725942920Kirby Fighters 2 isn't actually that bad. It's got a fun rogue-like story mode that's pretty replayable and got a lot of hours out of me.Which Road Trip seems to be similarly structured or inspired by, which is why it's my most excited game modeStill not worth 20 dollars though
>>725961006iirc he said stadiums cap at 8, so if you put 16 people in the same stadium it'll split them into 2 groups.
>>725962198I completely forgot about team battle, that shit is gonna be so crazy
I hope relay race is online.
>>725962669Cant imagine it wouldn't now with switch 2 load times.
>>725954019If I can't mash the A button to fly forever I don't care
>>725960689they probably stick a gimmick to it like being able to jump or transform or do a unique attack or some shit like thisbikes are still pretty shitty outside of battles and are now even overshadowed in that category by chariots.
>>725955148Playable Tac, Kine, and Coo
>>725962852Yeah it might be like the vampire star, but i always thought of hydra as being the "combat" legendary machine, and it wouldn't make sense to have two legendaries overlap in their stat spread so being the best at ground agility would separate it.
>>725960867theres an option to turn off voting, so I assume that would be like the old way where you are just forced into 1. The stadiums not supporting all 16 players is a bit lame though
I am pretty excited for the Road Trip mode. Its a fun idea. I hope it has difficulty settings.
>>725963049I’m hoping making legendary machines is a bit harder in this one it was too easy to sweep for them in air ride
>>725963424Its split between 16 players but they the pieces glue together, idk if i like them being near auto wins though. In teams its basically a group effort to get it first, i think you'll see completed machines most matches in teams.Also i only just realized that you can steal the legendary now if you get them weak, that might be the most satisfying thing in the game.
>>725960689We need a Robobot chariot.
You guys ready for try-hards in the online race mode of the full game?https://x.com/secret1217air/status/1989676574157992190
>>725964812kek what a no life
>>725964812Hopefully they all stick to ranked
>>725964812Snaking in Kirby?
>>725965204The original had it as a technique for certain vehicles like the shadow star.Some of them just go a little faster while drifting.
>>725964812I really wish races were online, this looks fun
>>725964812I wonder how much races change with health turned on, without it its only for speed boosts.
>>725963668>Also i only just realized that you can steal the legendary now if you get them weakThat will definitely be a checklist task>>725964812Apologies in advance as I may end up one of those people
>>725965584Honestly in a 16 player lobby of tryhards, getting the legendary too fast might be a gamble. They will ALL gun for you. And you get on the vehicle full health if you steal it so its BAD if you lose it.
>>725964812air ride looks a lot more fun in this game but >snakingoh brother
>>725963049telling you guys, the dream is a legendary version of slick star that goes absurdly fast only while drifting. Make it a real monster to try and control in exchange for legendary stats.
>>725963049both Dragon and Hydra are good at everything>>725963424>16 playersit's going to be an absolute mess, but with possibly 3 machine parts being around at the same time it will be still somewhat possible. Still some players might whine they never complete one online
>>725963417Knowing Sakurai it'll have the 9.0 intensity meter where you automatically go down a full point when you retry after failure.
>>725964812>boost snakingmeh, why does Sakurai love to let players abuse shit like this
will city trial have more songs in the full game? I think it needs more variety
>>725966060I mean yeah they are good all round but they have specialties, no point in adding another one if its not going to have something the others dont.
>>725964812what in the Mario Kart DS is all that drifting?
>>725964812All that drifting to get outpaced by a battle chariot going in a straight line.
>>725966173yeah, there's my music
>>725966173Pretty sure since in one of the directs, Sakurai showed that you can customize what songs can appear on what stages with the same sliders from Smash. Even then he showed that some Smash remixes will appear in the game too i.e. Brawl's Revenge of Meta Knight theme.I really hope we get Ultimate's City Trial remix though since it would be cool to have that play during an actual City Trial
>>725966173The old City Trial song is almost certainly an unlockable
>>725966553lets hope the old stage is an unlockable too.
>>725933646Island?
>>725966779Don't worry about it glidelet. it's only for MetaCHADs and StarGODs
>>725966173Yes.
is it worth playing the first game before this?
>>725966982Not really, unless you really want to start playing a few days before release, this game might as well be an original air ride remaster.
does Air Riders has rubber banding other than slipstream?>>725965204the og had it. the game uses different speed modifier for sliding sideways, going up or down and sliding against walls which allowed a significant speed exploit>>725966181they'd have to nerf Dragon and Hydra. If the third is an actual bike it can only excel at speed or
I suppose the air ride mode eill quickly become a snoozefest of metafaggotry with everyone playing the same thing while City Trial will stay casual and fun for a while longer? Amd top ride will be there
>>725967537I can only assume you got taken out by a sniper before you could finishBut iir neither of them had particularly amazing turning compared to the wheelie bike for example, i might be wrong if the new legendary is just a wheelie bike/chariot with better stats and maybe an ability to glide more i could see it being unique. It might just have an especially good trample/auto attack too if they take it in that direction.
>>725966864Just as long as you don't touch the ground, starshitter. Wouldn't want to be flattened by Rockychads.
I haven't played a kirby game since Robobot but I don't like susie because she doesn't look like a kirby character.
>>725968959I don't want to start flamewars but there is no real defining "kirby design" between characters other than being cutesy.
Is there one or two hours until the next session? Or did it already start?
>>725969268Two hours left anon, two unbearable hours.
>>725969079Are you going to blow me in 2 hours?
Why are only rick and gooey playable?the birb and fish would've been funny
>>725969474Yes, straight teeth.
>>725969550There still could be one of them, but kine and coo are in stages iir. We still haven't seen any dreamland 3 friends yet though.
>>725968959the biggest issue with susie is that she attracts mentally ill coomerseveryone else talks about gameplay and fun shit but susiefags just come here to talk about blowjobs and fat fetish jokes, these trannies have serious porn addiction issues and can't enjoy anything without sexualization
Does the game feel any different than last week lads? Besides the obvious swap of some machines and riders
>>725969934I like playing susie because her stats and abilities fit me, i like having a strong offense with extra jump height on bikes/chariots and her super is good for straight racing and killing people.
>this creature's existence is causing untold amounts of seething at this very moment
The susie blowjob shit makes me laugh everytime I enter a lobby and see it happens. I admit it
>>725970349that's probably because you still have a sense of humor, its getting rarer these days so you should cherish it.
>>725952432Unless there's a balance patch, Battle Chariot's probably going to stay the meta vehicle. Besides if I can help it I want to use the vampire star
>the hat shit was completely brokenunreal man FUCKING HOW
>>725971756the pre-order hats were only for air ride, not city trial
>>725972604There where people in city trial with hats, i think they fucked it up for some people.
>>725969934Wah wah, you act like people didn't already do this with Adeline or the Fairy Queen or the Elemental Sisters or the Cheetah girl. Crying about coomers is pointless because it's an inevitability on this board.
>>725972604They were broken across both modesnintendo put out a statement
Why are they being so stingey with the visual effect options
>one more hourbros i can feel it in my bones
less than 59 minutes until the penultimate round and they still can't push a 1 byte update to give people their hats (paid content btw)
You think there will be a ton of music tracks?
>>725973659Maybe not new ones but i expect a decent amount of returning songs for the city trial jukebox, listening to any final boss themes would be a treat. Bonus points if they have dynamic phase changes with the remaining time.
>>725928171
>>725964812Welcome back Mario Kart DS
>>725971756>>725972913on that note they put out another statement saying to close and reopen the game and/or unload and reload the virtual game card to try to resolve it, ill try that when the next trial period starts i guesshttps://x.com/nintendo_cs/status/1989833172834816390
I hope there is a sailor hat
>>725974705Which dee would you put it on? I guess the first question is how do the hats work with bandana dee? do they replace his bandana or go on top?
>>725974608oh, i went to do this now and i think it is fixed even without checking in game, the DLC is showing up in the virtual game card menu now so it'll probably work as long as you close and reopen the game before playing in the next session
>>725974863oh, i should have checked in game before bothering to post that
30 minutes left
>>725975486Staying up for 6 more hours is going to cause irreversible damage but its worth it.
>>725975593My sleep schedule for the week was already fucked up from staying up for this morning's time slot.
>raining outsideGonna be an extremely comfy 6-hour air ride sesh
>>725975024I have the DLC but there's no notification in game
>>725974860Probably default dee just because Sailor Dee didn't have a spear.But giving him a halberd-themed wheelie bike or something would be cute.
what should I get for din dins bros
>>725976298did you close and reopen the game? it only showed up the first time I opened it after unloading and loading the virtual game card too so that might be necessary to do
>>725976317I mostly thought if you can excuse sailor dee using a spear the stats fit better, unless sailors are weak pussies that cant throw hands.I can't wait for custom machines, i hope you can use them in city trial.
>>725976394Domino's
>>725976394I got catfish, get some fish or something (not fried, you fat fuck)
>>725976394one tough cream puff
>>725976394Something quick so you can play with us, anon!
>>725974705That picture makes me think of all the sorts of paddock MSF group photos people will do with the three Waddle characters once people start getting the full assortment of hats to go with it remembering that pic related is also a thing
>>725976519yeahI had to delete the game and redownload it to get the notification
While we wait 8 more minutes, what were your guys favorite machine in the original?For me, I always loved the Turbo Star once I figured out how to no accidentally do it's sharp turns
>>725977780I was a dumb kid so I only used the shadow star because it looked cool and could fly nice
>>725977780For me, it's Wheelie Scooter.Great stats all around (aside from combat, but I was never really fond of combat in the first game), and while the glitchy glide was a hinderance more than anything, I'll admit it was kind of fun.
GAME OPEN LOBBY DOKO
THE EVENT IS OPEN
WHERE IS MY HENSHIN STARGIVE ME THE HENSHIN STAR
Need that room baby
SOMEONE MAKE THE LOBBY
/v/addock open>ID: GGRH7S>Pass: 8080Get in and get racing, round 2 has begun!
THE HATCHES ARE OPEN
>>725977780Wheelie Scooter all day, every day! Barring that, I'd always go for the Shadow or Jet Star, I always loved the look of the Turbo Star, but I could never get the hang of its handling. I'm not sure if they changed how it works in Air Riders, or if it's something new in my mindset, but it's clicked with me now, and I quite enjoy it.
I'm using my Gamecube controller
>>725977780The simplicity and fun factor of Winged Star can't be beat
>Nautical's room is full FUCK
>full
Gday bitches
>>725977780Unironically love this piece of shit
>>725978250When the game is out first thing I'm doing is making a Six Machine or Virgin Victory inspired HENSHIN star

I feel like such a massive edgelord as this guy
>>725977780i was a swerve shitter in the original. also gotta say, the name "swerve star" is the biggest misnomer of all time, localizers really botched that one for no reason.
Join the paddock in the Kirby general on /vg/JKSFT012/16
How many rooms?
How the fuck this dude got a hat on in the lobby?
>>725979583he unlocked the "give out 10,000 blowjobs" achievement and got the hat.

>>725979583>he didn't get a blowjob from someone who had a hat
>>725979583I unlocked the "give out 10,000 blowjobs" achievements and got the hat
>>725979583Not him but you get it from the "give out 10,000 blowjobs" achievement
Are there really no bots online? That could be troublesome because I don’t know how long from release date rooms will be full.
btfo
>>725979823There are but bots are boring
>>725979583he unlocked the "watch 10,000 blowjobs" achievement and got the hat.

Lobby finally full let’s wait for all 16
No rick feels awful but just 1 more week

Did the lobby tv always have news flashes? For the march
>win match and receive a crown for the paddock>about to join the next city trial >the moment I press join, the match starts without me, so instead my a-press creates a new lobby by myself >after exiting the lobby I lost my crown like some kind of quitter instead of a winnerBros...

There are soulless faggot who don't jump off their machine in target flight
>Beam Gauntlet>Game kicks me into the wall Thanks game. I might have one that if not for you...
>>725982141You probably hit the trap ledge
What the hell does the rat's special do?
>>725982137The zoom-out making your character 1 pixel wide is gay
>>725982218It rats steals powerups if I recall.
>a huge ass, visible crown on the headHow??
WHERE ARE MY HATSIt says I have the dlc downloaded and I even deleted and redownloaded the test ride

It's over I was raped
>>725937195pray we get another borb to cover for him, be it Galacta or Morpho
is it just me or are most of the machines and characters shit for city trial
I swear I was doing a lot better when I was racing against randos
>get an amazing level up, even kill some people>comm error
I have a headache again after only 30 minutes. The same thing happened last week too. how are you guys able to play this for 6 hours?
>>725982731not having epilepsy helps.
>>725982461That's the paper lifestyle
Why does it keep recommending Oval Circuit when I'm using the fucking Bulk Star?
HERE COMES EL RATO
>>725982282Go to virtual game card options in switch menu, forcible eject the virtual card for the demo, then re-launch. Fixed it for me.
>they changed kirby's specialI'd rather throw bombs again
each colour kirby has their own special??
>>725982873Its color based
>lost the sky dive by 6 points! Bros...
Guys I'm not gonna be able to play again just tell me item bounce is in
>>725982948Yes_______________
>>725982948It plays when everybody is tiny
>>725982873Retard
>killed destroyed twice fuck you
Chariot feels insanely good, ggs to the guy who raped me on the oval circuit. Im liking wagon a lot
>>725982948It is and it's exactly the same from Ride.
>>725983018Silly me for not knowing about a game not released yet
Brb, gonna take a quick shit and be back anons
>>725983018chill out
>>725983073The menu literally shows you each character's special
>>725983036meant to say battle chariot but normal chariot feels fantastic too.
>>725983073>game tells you what each special is/does on the character select>tutorials explicitly tell you Kirby has different specials>direct had dedicated segment where it was explained Kirby's are color basedYes, retarded you.
>Waiting for match to start>Everyone just crowds around the tvIts the little things.
>>725983000>>725983007>>725983039Thank you I really wish it got a remix but I dreamed too big I suppose
put a password on your rooms niggers so we don't have randoms joining
Oh yeah it's a switch 2 game I forgot switch 2 was a thing nowOh well guess I shan't be playing
Is susie not able to glide normally? she does her little propeller thing and then just falls to the ground no matter how much glide I have
>>725983250okay you win, enjoy feeling smarter than someone, must be rare for you so you gotta treasure it when it happens
I was the waddle dee killing everybodyI am going to do it again
anyone else wagon's a little too good?Hard to get a stadium out of 4 where it isn't at least competitive if not the best
WHY DO I KEEP GETTING COMM ERRORS
Is there a worse feeling than not being able to get started and having some faggot crawling up your asshole trying to mug you when you don't even have any fucking powerups yet?
robo dedede is too easy
>>725983695Close the game then jump back in.
>>725983389we're all randoms, what's your point? you mean people outside of /v/? go back to your discord server homo.
Game is lagging with a lot of disconnects.
>>725983554Passive aggression just means you actually got butthurt
If me and 2 other friends all wanna play together, but also with randoms, what's the easiest way to do that?We can't do a paddock because then randoms can't join (right? Or is there a way to join other people's paddocks without having the code?), so I thought going to the friend menu in the demo then joining them from there, then the third would join me and the second, would work, but it doesn't seem like it ever lets you join someone that way, it always says you can't right now or they're mid matchAre there enough anons here the other paddocks in the thread that people here would join the three of us if I made one for us three and anybody here?
Nice online, Sakurai. Very cool!
Oh hell yeah our lobby has double blows!
Is it just me or are there more negative stats now?
What does it mean at the end of a match when some players have a star next to their score? For instance only 1st player and 4th player had "×1 " next to their scores at the end.
I know people are teleporting all over the place because of lag.>Get hit a few seconds AFTER someone passes me>During a race, people are stopping and going at random, which makes it impossible for me to follow behind them.
I keep playing trying to have it click but it isnt happening
>>725983389Why does it even matter
>>725983828Why can't we just be friendly is all I'm thinking
>>725983726The bosses are designed for a chaotic fuckfest of multiple players, so I doubt any of them will be hard when fought alone in Road Trip
Okay I'm back from my shit, sorry anonsWho the fuck pushed me behind the couch while I was AFK?
>Target ring drop stadium>Wagon>Fall fast as hell so can steal all the good ringsgenius
Who's the best character if you're that asshole who likes to hunt people down?

>>725984431give 10,000 blowjobs as susie
Ive been getting blows since last week, someone take ahead. My dick hurts
>>725982218You turn invisible, steal power ups when hitting others, and get a slight speed boost. It’s a very slight speed boost, the slightest I’ve seen.
How do I consistently get 100+ power ups? I’ve only maxed at 106, my average is 70-80 which can net me wins but I wanna be 16 across the board.
>>725984536Works on my machine

We need a discord for this
this game is hard as fuck
>>725983897How many stadiums they've won during the session, I think
>>725984958we really don't
Heading out, was fun.Nice seeing some names I recognize from Splatoon.
>>725984912man i remember the original air ride, city trial vs hard coms was always nonstop getting rolled by wagon star in every race event.
>>725984874I usually hit them a bunch to steal some but killing them is hard unless I have mega death items like the beam or I’m on tank/shadow star
>>725984418Fuck you anon, the worst part about all this was the fact that I had to swap to the fucking Tank Star after getting ass raped by you
>Starman>Horns>Bull TankIt's OUR time bros
>>725984958>We need a discord for this
>>725985012I recognize some guys from MK World lobbies though I haven’t seen that rocky wrench guy that I hate and think about 24/7 rent free even though I haven’t played the game in months.
