It's the /v/eekend bros. Get in here and race!
>he isn't grinding LC top 100
I'm kinda done with it. I hope they make Crossworlds 2.
>>736367019Season 2 will come though. Prepare.
>>736367140The game hasn't hit the sales estimates from 2025, and is trying to recoup them this year. It isn't happening bro.
>play for 90 minutes day 1>peak at 1953 (#7 at the time)This is how I get tricked into thinking top 100 won't be a festival tier timesink before getting mario karted for a week straight, isn't it.
>>736368035gotta go for 120 min a day, at least
How long does it take on pc to find a lobby? on the switch 2 it's like consistently 1.5 to 2 minutes
Amy's tail...
>>736371924what about it?
>>736371947Erotic...
>>736371012Every platform has crossplay on by default. Did you turn off crossplay lobbies?
>>736368035It's possible to play LC for one or two good days, get a high enough rank (especially near the end when points are a little more inflated), then park it for the rest of the event to get top 100. I've been hearing a little more bellyaching from the usual compfags about desync and other technical problems still being the game, so it might even be a little easier this time if they choose not to grind it as much.
>>736367019part of me hopes they do because this game is full of jank I dont like
>>736372332No, i was just wondering if it's this slow on every system, because it just feels slow af on the switch 2
>>736366065I already spent all midnight trying to get emerald rank so no thanks, maybe later
Right, she's in.
>>736372618That's probably my plan, since I got pretty close in LC1 just playing three hours the last day. Guessing the cutoff will be around 2100.
>>736366259I mamaged to get Emerald on the first LC by using quick recovery, I've nothing left to prove
>>736371012Something like 4 seconds for festivals, 4-30 seconds for world match, 40-80 seconds for legend comp
>>736376869oh no no no, bro's washed...
Fucking 30,000 rating Whisper trannies being 30 seconds ahead of everyong fucking release me from this goddamn torture
Last LC was a same day emerald speedrun.This LC is fucking my ass raw, no lube, spiked.It's such a clusterfuck bros.
>>736366065Furry cutie made for human men
I have a feeling I pissed someone off with the Crossworld ring gadget
>>736380386
>>736372618Whatever they did for "fixing" collision locks feels like it made desync as a whole a lot worse. I used to be pretty good at shooting ghosts, nowadays I'll often see the targeted player not slow down but someone to their left and right both will.
>See Thicc Amy mod>Got pranked and It's actually a Thicc Pinky mod
>>736380386>Espio gets hit by something in 10th>driving slow in 12th after, implying instant d/c + bot takeoveroh he mad
I kinda lost all of my mood after playing LC. Managed to demote three times and back to plat.
>>736384801I'm not playing it since I wouldn't use the titles even if I got them.
This is the worst lobby I've ever been in.
I don't think I'm making it bros
>>736386683Et tu, Jet?
>>736386683I would just hit that drill out of panic. And lose anyway coz someone used goop after this.
>Pass Sonic who's in 1st place with a tornado>He uses it and hits me>Had a green glove, lock on him and kill him>1st placeHe learned a valuable lesson today.
>Last lap & last stretch>Miku & me both have Tornadoes>boost & use mine coming in behind him >Sync shenanigans start, he uses his as well, even though it says I hit him, mine ends and he hits me>Had a spare bomb and hit him, he very clearly goes into a standstill and I winThat felt good.
>>736377025Oh I just realized it tries to pair me with people around my rank, that's probably why it's taking so long, I'm only rank D.
>>736387879And Miku is almost Legend 1. That win would make her 9k for sure
>>736387881sudden urge to jerk off to Amy
>>73637101240 seconds for me on switch 2, I keep getting told this game flopped but its way easier to lobby up than air riders or mkw
>>736366259I can't be assed to sweat. Besides once Arle's in, one of the Puyo Puyo Festival titles (ideally the Top 100 one) is permanently staying on.

>>736374775
Suddenly online is having really weird issues for me, drifting bouncing me off the side of the course instead of letting me take corners, my vehicle suddenly turning 90 degrees as i collide with something shitting my speed down to 0
>>736393207Did you enable steering assist at some point?
>>736394126No, I haven't used steer assist or trick assist since I started the game.
>>736366065>already L1>not interested in LC title>don't have any fun racing against sweats onlineNo. I don't want to race against people right now.
Took a break. Did the meta change any with these new gadgets?
>>736394212There's a button toggle for it while paused that's easy to accidentally bump, is why I ask. It can whip you 90 degrees if you try to steer somewhere it doesn't like, and that includes a few inside lines.
>>736394505I'll have to check when I start the game up again, but I don't think so? It was that stage that takes place on the big tree roots with the short water sections, somewhere in like the third curve I kept somehow sliding off the stage when trying to drift the corner, as if there was no traction at all, happened 2 laps in a row, and then on the last lap that weird collision happened.
>>736394367>Did the meta change any with these new gadgets?Yes.
>>736394367All that happened was tryhards switched their silver surfer plate for double ring engine.At least with DRE you have a chance of fucking them over before they break away.
>>736394367Ring Engines turned out to be super good, and you can flex one or both into any build with Bounty gadgets so there's a decent amount of variety in drift, slipstream, and even bagging builds with them currently, though there is a clear favorite in double Ring Engine + Lv2 Quick Charge + Perfect Charge Bounty.Route Planner Bounty's seen a decent amount of use.Wouldn't call anything else meta, Omochao and the item buying gadget are usable though.
Help, I'm addicted to the trick gadgets even through I know they're not very helpful
>>736394629Oh I misunderstood, that wouldn't be steering assist. Sounds like the game's usual shit physics.
IN THE NIGHTSDREAM DELIGHTSI WANT TO SEE YOU STANDING THEEEEEEEREPretty easy LC.
>>736395628The problem is that if all of them are top 3, you will barely hit first one, 2nd and 3d will more likely take all the hits and 1st will be unaffected. And if you are 2-3rd, you have a choice to keep defence items and let that fag to be 1st or try to attack 1st place, but being instantly mogged by the other 9 players
>>736397782Usually in my races if I'm in second or third, it's better to keep my defensives and wait for one of the many first-place target items to arrive. Either it's KBB and first place blows his shield/gets raped, or it's weights and we both dodge it at worst, making him vulnerable. Then the onus is on him to completely parry every attack I throw at him. I've been on the receiving end of this interaction as well, it can be super pressuring.
>4 friends at emerald>I'm barely at platI'll get there eventually.
>>736401259How long does it take to grind to legend to even participate?
>snoyslop
>>736401568Less than a day if you're actually good and the game doesn't actively fuck you over during the final stretch.
>>736401568Several hours. Point gain in the letter ranks is generous.
>>736367292>trying to recoup them >by using a puyo characterGet real little tendie, they wouldn't do such a useless move unless the game was a success.
>bullied all race>end up monster trucking my way to 1st during the finals stretch
>try legend competition>start out in goldwhat? does it start you out the rank lower than your previous result? I only over got to silver the first two so thought you always started at bronze each time
>>736403034>and the game doesn't actively fuck you over during the final stretch.which is almost always a guarantee.
>>736404015At some point they added a system to start you in silver or gold based on your rank in the previous LC.
The way they've ruined the drill needs to be studied holy shit.>in 11th during the final stretch of Apotos>should at least shoot up to 7th>drop in speed when I barely catch up fucking TENTH>cross the finish line in 11th
>>736404232Drill is only used to catch back up to the pack if you fall past slipstream distance
>>736404232I dont mind the change and I say this as a bagGOD, sure it's weaker but the spawn rate is higher, so it evens out. I can bag a drill nearly every race now
>>736404408So they just took the bullet bill aspect away and said fuck you? Nice. Bravo balancing team. I clapped.
>>736401259You're up next bro, I believe in you.
>>736404448Monster truck is already bad enough as the last fuck you in the final stretch, we didn't also need drillniggers also stealing placements
>70 eurodubloonsFuck that.
>Nose starts to itch mid-race
>>736404719For me it's laser, I came in second like four times today to some guy lasering past me at the very end.
>>736404821>euro
>>736405054I'm okay with laser being as good as it is since it's non-damaging. It was gay in the previous meta, but almost nobody's surfing to properly bag a lap 1 laser anymore.
>>736404826Me, living with allergies all day, every day.Also, anybody else feels insulted when people use "tendies" as an insult here? I'm on Switch and see a lot more people playing here than on other consoles or PC. It's not like we only like/play Nintendo games...
>>736404719Drill can stay useless if popped in 7th or better but fuck you if it thinks the way its currently balanced is good.
>>736406430Just hide those post. Its a multiplat game, there's no reason to stir shit up for others preference. That's just a serous case of little dick.
>>736406430>spoiler NTA but no, I don't let it get to me. I see plenty of Switch players on CrossWorlds. I only get insulted when shitposters bring up Steam numbers because like >>736406513 said it's a multiplat game and has crossplay, Steam numbers don't really apply here
>>736406461The weaker items are the better. They're all massively OP
>>736406581I'm for weaker items. I'm not for useless items.
>>736406575Steam charts are a plague on the site in general, but it's fortunate that the game itself provides online participation numbers if your event rank is low enough.
>>736406594I already told you how they're not useless. Seriously, falling outside slipstream range is an automatic last place finish if you can't catch up and monster truck and laser aren't as good as Drill outside specific shortcuts
>>736406886>and monster truck and laser aren't as good as Drill outside specific shortcutsThey are now that they fucked the drill over.
>>736406862I do applaud the anons that do 1 race each festival just to participate and see the player count
>1840 points>Coral Town>miss the skip on lap 3 andcompletely blow my lead>next race is last place finish>1821
>>736408004The carousel of hell
>>736366065
>>736366065>Get in here and race!How about fuck off? I'm Legend 1, so WM is nothing but Top 100 kikes for me. I already have 3 Emerald titles, so the LC doesn't interest me, and is filled with Top 100 compfags as well. I've also fully 100% completed the game outside of grinding Friendships, which I'm not autistic enough to do. Open a Friend Match lobby or go fuck yourself, I do not want to race no-life compfags.
>>736367019>>736366065Don't forget your ticket
>>736408336She looks like she exclusively fucks human men while pretending to chase after another hedgehog.
>finally 1800Just a little more...
>>736408004Its over
>be last place>roll boo or weights>shuffle around the top 5 spot and doesn't help you come back at allgreat design really
>>736409870Nice job bro! DRE or were you doing something different?
>its just 50 points to emerald>30 minutes later>it's just 50 points to emerald
>>736410740DREI prefer just using Hyper RE but I felt like I was getting too easily outpaced
>>736410209>last stretch>get item>item can never possibly resolve before you finish the racet-thanks
>>736410897>It's just 50 points to Emerald>10 minutes later>It's just 187 points to Emerald
>>736411394I'm at 1838 now. Just gotta brute force though it.
>>736411054It's just not fast enough using a single RE, DRE is too good.
>>736411505You do you, I have no interest in this faggot event. >>736408868
>barely survive PacMaze>+0
>>736403598Puyo Puyo is bigger than Sonic in japan
>>736411705That put everything back into perspectives
>15 points away from emerald>hurr lets put you in an all emerald room>barely survive and get +1 point>wait a bit before queuing up again>thrown into an all emerald room againSTOP IT
>>736367019Stop stealing MY look
Emerald acquired. I can now avoid the stench of LC.
So what exactly is that bonus effect for running both ring engines?
>>736412265Ring Engine gives +3 speed.Hyper Ring Engine doesn't, but gives +9 when combined with Ring Engine for some reason. (+12 total)
>>736412265You look like a lunatic. A cool lunatic.
>>736412265The thrill of racing on the edge and being even more dependent on rings than usual.
>>736412265SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED
>get truck'd on a corner>lose control>slam into wall>12th with no hope in recovery
Haven't played in a while. Any new gadget combos for boards exclusively?
>>736413585Ring Engine, Perfect Ring Bounty, 130 Ring Limit, Level 2 Drift Charge is one I've seen for EGs. Don't really see karts using it.
