Seems like the sweats jumped to Hyper Ring Engine (which got fixed to have 4 extra km/h), tech drift, slipstream bounty and 130 rings.
Same deal as before, insane leads, clusterfuck of an item pool for the rest. New patch fun lasted only a couple hours.

Not if Sega would put out balance patches at a reasonable pace, and actually nerf the shit that needs nerfing. It shouldn't have taken 6 months for UC to get nerfed, and seeing what 1.4.1 brought, it should be taking up upwards of another 6 months for the Ring Engines to get reasonably nerfed.
>Which is good for you, because whining about how all your losses are justified as not conforming to the status quo keeps your ego overinflated
Right, I'm the one with an overinflated ego, not the faggots who sit in their disgusting "gamer" chairs for 22 hours a day farming World Match with the strongest build in the game because they just have to watch their dumbass number go up. Whatever helps you sleep at night, retard.

Some of the outdated music mods are messing with your music. If you have any mods for the monster truck music, menu music, or ceremony themes -this might be the issue

>>741788980
I wonder what the details were on #2. DRE's inherently strong at low ring count, so I never even noticed anything fishy.

I think DRE's still the way to go if you bother with ring engines at all. Single engine has the benefit of being able to fit 130 Ring Limit for higher top speed, but actually maintaining 100+ in a real race is rough and you're worse off than DRE or Ring Evo+drift/ring boost if you drop below it.

I really don't know why they don't just go back to those game they praise so much. The games are there, they could get a group of people to play that shit to dead if they wanted to.
I played a lot of CTR:NF and even though the game was extremely fun and full of soul online was just blue fire or whatever they liked to call that fucking shit. I could and had to do it for time trials, yes, but it wasn't fun for me since I don't like sweating and treating a multiplayer game the same way I do time trials. Most of my time I spend it playing offline and with my family.
>>
>>741768176
it's still really good. sometimes, it's almost impossible to block homing items on certain curves, plus if someone is right besides you and throws an item at you, there's barely any time to react. it also works against the items thrown backwards, which is a nice bonus.

I can see the logic - Ring Engine + 130 Limit was already a thing prenerf, and HRE got buffed to be better on its own - but I think HRE being 2 slot makes any combo with HRE+130 feel underwhelming unless you manage to go a whole race untouched, at which point you'd probably win regardless of gadget choice.

Funbros, what are you experimenting with so far? I won't say this build is good but I'm getting consistent podium finishes and even some 1sts with this one. It's goofy but I like being a ring merchant.

Either you compensate it with bounty gadgets (Perfect Charge Bounty and Slipstream Bounty/Accel Character Kit being the popular ones, several others are usable-but-situational too), or you're running DRE/ACK/Ring Boost and don't sweat over being at 100 rings in the first place.

How the fuck would I know who he is? I just know he play with us sometimes and then comes crying when the team loses because he think he did best than the rest of us and we should do better like him.
If anything he should post his player tag so we can block him and save him the problem of "losing" so much.

Until their limit. They don't keep increasing after that limit.
Just tested it by grabbing thousands of rings and still getting max 199-200 speed with my character+machine combo, which is the same speed I get when the rainbow aura activates signifying you achieved 100 in every stat, I suppose.
>>
>>741799646
I hit 240 speed on a straight line with maxed out stats in the speed machine. I have no idea if it can go above that but i was pretty fucking fast, scarily even. I was catching up with people like it was nothing and won back to back.
>>
>>741799814
Like I said, with my character and machine combo my max speed becomes 199-200, no matter how many more rings I collect. But I guess power machines who have those extra speed limit buffs can get higher speed. Not really that interested in testing other machine types to see if they have different limits since I don't really care about it tbdesu.

Varying flavors of this. The idea's to cancel out the stat loss from Double Down by causing chaos the first two laps, then have reliable double item rolls for catchup and defense in lap 3. It's my first time using Double Down since the special item box buff, it's pretty great being able to roll a shield+boost in first or a triple wisp+truck in second.

>>741809803
On Sonic Speed, most of the time EG or speed cars will get you A or S ranks depending on your build. For Super Sonic Speed, some tracks you can use speed cars but handling is better because of the higher speed and potential for snaking. Ideally though you can just copy one's build and route from a replay in the top 100 and get the times that way

At launch, the rule of thumb was to run whatever got you to 100 rings the fastest on any given track, paired with some form of speed increase (drifts, ring boost, air tricks)
Nowadays every track is solved with double Ring Engine plus bounty gadgets (usually Perfect Charge Bounty or Runoff Bounty) to maintain it. SS vehicle choice mostly doesn't matter, SSS heavily favors handling as it's the only type that's rewarded instead of penalized for drifting there.

Like the other anon said you can see builds on each track's leaderboard, which will typically look like picrel these days. If you hate snaking you can figure out some other form of ring generation and it'll be good enough.

The decision to make a live action movie made them a lot of money and helped with Sonic's reputation among newer fans. An anime would just cater to weebs and would be overlooked by most people as a weird weeabo thing instead of a fun family movie. Seems to me like they made a good decision.

>3 gadget slots just to shrug off the occasional hit, still lose rings and halts your top speed
its a meme, and its training wheels for noobs. Ring Engine with drift ring bonus is a far better use of your gadget slots. Just grind up a lv2 drift when you get hit, you get back to top speed quickly with some rings to go with it. QR was only good during LC3, when it was a freebie.

Your saving grace is that you main Sage.
I dont know what youre expecting when running the most fragile vehicle type but yeah, you will get punished hard for getting hit when using the vehicle that can spam lv2+ drift boosts. Also they added a 1 slot gadget that rewards your careless positioning and lack of holding on to items like tornado and shield. Wouldnt be suprised if you spam click activate tornado the mere frame someone passes you for a second, encountered several of you faggots who do that lately, oblivious to the weights/goop that inevitably show up every 30-50 seconds when front running.
>>
>>741821951
Power's just for ring loss on collision. Everything's equal in weight for whatever reason, and because of glorious japanese netcode it's very common to get repeatedly shoved by a desynced player who isn't getting bumped at all on their screen, so they just stay in place while you fly off into the sunset.

not liking that column in TMNT to get back to the surface because they had to leave the top wide open for visibility. they were already doing wall riding so use that more.

if we're using Monkey Ball collabs as proof, this would also be writing on the wall for the paid dlc pass. everyone else is in except him. if we're getting free characters too, this game also featured Beat, Akira VF, and Gillius so they're on the table. all of which are getting new games by next year.

I think 2003 fits best for Modern honestly. Mostly because 4Kids aired that show and Sonic X. My picks for it would have been

Hopefully, even if it's less characters than the first year had. Ideally it's another 10-12 SEGA characters and they pick some from other franchises or even double dip on others though.

I just want to know. How are these same sweats managing to escape the item scramble in the beginning UNCONTESTED, despite not running any gadgets that would particularly help with it? Is it hacking? And why does the playerbase suddenly lack a spine when it comes to attacking them when THEY'RE in the lead, but when I'm in the lead I magically get hit with a smorgasboard of every fucking attack item in the game? Moreover, whenever I get sent back into the middle of the pack after frontrunning for two straight laps, I get DROWNED by those same cancerous items, but whenever I send these sweats back into the pack with a well-timed attack, they - without fail - always seem to meet me at the final stretch with the most convenient defensive/boost item? Lastly, why do the casuals in this game lack any sort of tactics? Why waste your red rocket on me when there's a sweat halfway across the map who's an infinitely more valuable target?

Kart racers are dumb. I hate them.

Because people "playing" games nowadays only do it because their favorite streamer do it too, so they get in, see "streamerfaggot69" in their same lobby, and they feel like they have to help him get the win.

That's why anytime you're in 1st you get a barrage of items directed to you and only you, but the faggots with a gazillion points manage to stay in 1st even when you, in 3rd, can clearly see 2nd place with an item and a big opening to attack him but won't.

Festival is full of shit like this too, two whole teams against the third one because THEY have to win no matter what, so they team up against the other random team, yours.

You think the Puyo Puyo festival races having 90% chance of having not only one, but TWO top 10 faggots teams was just random?

Congrats anon.
I have mixed feelings on the Wily Castle time trial. When I first saw the lemons were present I thought it was going to involve trick shotting Mets for efficient ring gain, but it ended up being better to just dump three shots into bumo and ignore it otherwise. Still a fun track to drive.
>>
>>741837868
Thanks! I didn't even realize you could shoot bumo, I just did the trick shots. Something told me it wasn't the most efficient way to play the track, but it sure was a blast optimizing the run.
>>
>>741836980
>nu-gilius
>>
>>741838007
Oh you did it the fun way then, nice. I had an unironic blast optimizing Met shots and even had #1 on both SS and SSS for a bit, it's not a dynamic you get from any other track. Bumo and Wily both give a whopping 30 rings per shot however, so it is just way more efficient to drive normally and mash three lemons on the jump in front of bumo.
