Had fun with the Mega Man festival? Well time to lock in, LC4 is here
>>736130214NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN
So no gimmick this time? It's just a repeat of LC1?
rev up that slicer spam
Actually looking forward to this one. I imagine DRE will dominate this time around if there's no gimmick.
Couldn't we at least get a week's break?Looks like no gimmick, so nothing we haven't already seen in WM. I'll just knock out Emerald ASAP and dip till the next fest.
Back into the Fire
>No post on the official accounts>No confirmed ruleset>Happening a day after april fools
>>736130873It popped up in game for me.
>>736130921Ik, the fact that it popped out of nowhere without announcement just makes it feel suspicious
>>736130214But why though? We're supposed to have Red and Majima this month, give it a fucking break with the compfag events. Now they're gonna get pushed back, which in turn is gonna push back Arle's release.>>736130873>>736130921Yeah popped up in game for me too, but it is strange that there's no listed ruleset or post on Xitter about it yet. Praying it's just a bad taste April Fools joke.
I skipped the first three LCs. I will skip this one too.
I thought the faggot YouTuber in this game was bad enough, but what the fuck is this?
>>736131362A real Sonic character for real Sonic fans
>>736131543I think I'm starting to see why this game is dead with a roster this retarded.
>>736130214They should do these a lot more and with less time between them, along with festivals. That way topfaggots can die from a heart attack or brain damage from not sleeping for days trying to keep their precious rank.
>>736131721You right. I would've thought the game being 14 years old is what did it though.
>>736131785There are older games that aren't dead.There are even older racing games that aren't dead.
Don't forget, she's in.
>sakura wars anniversary logo revealedCould this be one of the remaining mystery niggas?Don't know anything about this series, but with that name there's probably a cute girl we could get as a character.
>>736132431God I wish it was Gemini Sunrise
>open world match>lose 100 points>gain 100 points>close world match
>>736132940>>open world matchThis was your first mistake.
>>736130214I'm so glad I got Emerald on the first round, I've no desire to try the other rounds because of it.
>>736131362We've come a long way
>>736133352This. There is nothing to gain from that hellhole if you're Legend 1 already.

>>736134212>April 1st
>>736134212>*checks date*I hate you Sega
>>736134212>>736134297>>736134340>inb4 they're real and coming soon like a lot of april 1st jokes
>>736134628I mean I'd fuckin' use the Dreamcast car, these look great, it's just that it's April 1st so I wouldn't get my hopes up.That and if they get added there's always the possibility they're Acceleration. That would be the real April Fools joke.
>>736134212Everyone start bitching enough to force them to add this lol
>>736134752>and if they get added there's always the possibility they're AccelerationI don't see anything wrong with that.
>>736134848Why not? It's the weakest vehicle class in the game and you are absolutely going to lose online if you use an Accel car unless you're racing absolute shitters.
>>736134628Considering they made a whole ass free visual novel as an April Fools joke, they have no excuse not to
>>736134939Nah, those are my favorites and I do good enough with them. Couldn't care less if someone else go full power and beat me for a second or two.
>>736130214>another autism sweat cup Why?Who even does this shit?Where is the costume shop update?
>>736135032Well you know what fair enough, more power to you anon.
>>736134848Accel cars feel shit to drive. Terrible handling and boost charge without the extra perks power vehicles have.
>>736134939Ring Engines have greatly evened the playing field in regards to vehicle types. There's still a slight disadvantage but it's not nearly as bad as it used to be. They can do well enough.
>>736135037>Who even does this shit?You already answered your own question.>autism sweatsIn case you're not aware, they've kinda ruined the entire online landscape of the game. Don't worry though, you and I are just bad at the game though because we don't sink 20 hours into it every day.
>>736135237Works on my literal accel machine.>>736135332I don't use ring engines. ACK and Quick Recovery, or ACK and ring boost and more slipstream is enough for me.
>>736131362She's unironically the best. Her boat form is amazing.
>>736130214so it's just standard? maybe it'll be fun now that all the other players won't be invincible half the time
>>736131362Transformeds adventure mode was so fun with all those challenge modes and stuff to unlock. Shame they didn't bring it back.
>>736131362game literally wouldn't exist without her, she funded development
>>736135648Yeah instead one guy will be a mile ahead of everyone else with no chance to catch up to them.
>>736135541Is she actually good? I've only been playing Amy up to this point, though I did try the TF2 guys a few times.>>736135683It's been fun so far, though I've been really struggling with getting a feel for the game's flight controls.>>736135713qrd?
>>736135782She funded the game so she could get in.https://youtube.com/watch?v=AngIzSQe3Wg&pp
>>736135747>instead one guy will be a mile ahead of everyone else with no chance to catch up to them.>implying that wasn't already the case beforeat least you'll be able to hit him
>>736135972I... Uh... What?
>>736135747This was already the case with Ultimate Charge you ginormous faggot. At least now you can hit the dickhead.
what even is the meta anymore
>>736135972They need to add more real people into Sonic games.
>>736137352double boost tuners, speed tuner 2, less is more
>>736137459I'd only accept Keanu, Jim Carrey or King Donny
>>736137352DRE, drift charge gadgets, and that one that pay them for perfect drift charges, that way they can unfuck themselves as soon as you hit them and keep speeding away anyway like this anon >>736136017 pretends you do. Sure, we can hit them now, but what's even the point when you can't stop them? inb4 whiner loser shiter can't be happy with anything blah blah blah.
Looking forward to trying it in the new metaI tried LCs during UCs reign and the climb felt absolutely glacialThis hyper engine meta seems healthier
Wouldn't ring engine builds be naturally countered by ring thief?
>>736137686Rare Wavebro W, you love to see it.
>>736137797No.
>>736137797lol lmao
>>736137797Not in any meaningful wayYou just counter ring engine builds by not letting them break away, which isn't that hardI've seen full hyper engine builds end up 12th as often as 1st because the set is pretty high risk, has no damage mitigation and makes them race with shit lines due to the variable handling
>>736137831I've actually had some pretty nice breakouts in the new patch, playing field feels a lot more even now that there isn't an echelon of racers permanently ignoring all item mechanics
>>736138420Yeah I get what you mean, I've been having a similar experience thus far for the few times I've dabbled in WM since the patch.I'm more just used to how most videos you post are you getting screwed over lol
>>736137546>King DonnyI need this.I know it won't happen, but it would be hilarious if he were the final free DLC character.Come to think of it, why has Dodonpa (regular Dodonpa) never been playable in anything?
>>736138881And troons wonder why nobody likes them.
>>736138881>what if I make my sex life just my life
>>736138952It was a fight to the very end but I managed to clench it out, barely. The Shadow got like 10th.
>>736139148Good work anon, put those faggots in their place.
Not grinding any more festivals. Top 10 lobbies are ass
>>736139143They think destroying their bodies with weird medications and surgeries is a substitute for a personality.
Slowly developing breakaway strategies for every course since I want to gain distance as quickly as possible with DRE. Pumpkin Mansion is an especially nice one if you're able to hold a wisp until you get out of the house.
>>736130526>>736135037Probably to test the meta so they can see what may or may not be broken.>>736137352A lot, honestly. The current meta is more about early position than anything else. I think the only TRUE meta gadget is Ring Engine since it's just flat out amazing and only 1 slot. If you want to go full out frontrun then you also need 130 gadget or Route Planner.
It's funny because Lanolin is the fat from the whool, and you use it as a cream for nipples.
>>736130526Definitely a way to check if UC is still broken. If ring drain 2 go fast ends up dominating the top100 that'll be one problem solved. Next will be the items.
are power vehicles still a meme
>>736139939When is she getting in?
>>736139939woah
>>736140125define memethe uniquely high slipstream/ring boost cap make them pretty lightning fast on boost pads/straights
>>736140125This, but ACC.
>>736140871i'm new and don't really understand the metacan i pick any character i like and just play the tryhard gadget/vehicle combo?
>>736130214wtf is honestly with this LC filler? I wouldn't mind it if it didn't postpone actual dlc drops...
>>736141015Yeah the chatacters make very little difference
>>736130214>not SSS>not one specific item>not a random gadget that causes chaos>just a vanilla LCBoooooooooooooooooooooooooooring
>>736141130is that why people were exclusively playing knuckles for like 5 months?
>>736141175>not one specific item>LC thats shurikens only
>>736141217Good thing you can play WM during LCs.
>joke about LC4 being before the red festival>ends up happeningSee you on the battlefield Creambro
>>736141183The people that play the best thing will play the best thing even if it gives 0.0001% advantage, that's a very poor argument
>>736141702Just a regular ass LC now with nerfed silver surfers and ring engine builds. Sounds boring, but if we must.
>>736138420The buffs to super item boxes also really help with frontrunningNow you will get a defensive or shortcut item like 80% of the timeThere are still some annoying aspects but the patch has been 100% in the right direction
Dead game.
>>736146609Seems pretty alive based on the festival rankings
>>736146732Cope.Mario kart world fucking murdered and buried this shit eos game.
>>736146818idk i dont think people like that one
