General for Kart and Arcade racing games, think Mario Kart, Sonic Crossworlds, CTR, Burnout, Blur, NFS, Ridge Racer etc. Let's talk about cool racing games both new and old, maybe we can organize some gamenights.

if anyone wants to get into Mario Kart Wii again, it's a perfect time now. Because of the MKWii Decompiled project, you don't need a emulator to play the game anymore. I still run it through Dolphin out of habit tho. Anyway the server for MKWii online Retro Rewind has seen a big increase in popularity, and peaked at short of 700 people online https://rwfc.net/rooms
new event is live in Crossworlds
any dumps of the new mk8 patch yet? i wanna hit trials with the speed adjustments
>>2925034thanks, exactly why I came here
>>2925006Pastebin is 404 bro
>>2925034>Game is already taken over by Mach Daisys and Funky Flame Runners
>>2925006>>2966124Pastebin is back up. Site was having outages over the weekend.
>>2966269It's been like that since mkwii came out kek. Honestly tho karts aren't that bad on tighter courses with many drift opportunities since there's a third boost. It's just that you are fucked on courses with long straights where you can't wheely boost
>>2977053>It's been like that since mkwii came out kek.I'm aware, I just had a slim hope that the faggots would let the game be fun for oh I don't know a week or so? Foolish of me, I know.
>hurrrr why wont people play worse on purpose so I can feel better about myself
>duhhh why do people want to play with all of the other characters and vehicles in the game? why don't they just run meta like me?
>>2998836Then play Deluxe instead of Rewind and stop crying
>>2999135I'll play whatever I damn well please, thank you very much. Try for once in your life, to play some vidya without acting like your life is in danger. I promise you, it's okay, nobody is going to hurt you if you finish in 2nd of 12th for once.
You niggas play The Karters?
>>3003973This looks like it plays like shit, and I can only imagine it has zero personality of it's own if you're playing on a Mario Kart Wii track with a CrossWorlds character.
>>3003973Nah it's made for time trialing which I find boring. The cc people play online is too fast.
>>3004100The game controls extremely well but I get what you mean. Since it's entire point is having a steam workshop obviously most people will import known tracks and characters, there's thousands of random stuff in there too, copyrighted and original.>>3004444Checked, whenever I play online I never use items, I just like testing my driving skill against people which is basically multiplayer solitaire time trials, but I know it's almost nobody's cup of tea lol
Bumbling in here to say Star Wars Galactic Racer is actually good.
Year 2 announced for Crossworldshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0TSwHOJ7Xw>>3033971It looks kinda boring. To me it seems like the same issue i had with the latest Hot Wheels games by Milestone where the driving is fine, but it lacks powerups to shake up the gameplay. Also the stages in the Star Wars games look very samey
>>3050729>but it lacks powerups to shake up the gameplay.It literally has like 9 weapons.

>>3003973I have it, but I don't care for it unless I'm playing with a crowd that's exactly around my skill level. The need to constantly and consistently get perfect boosts in order to keep cranking max speed instead of just getting a boost in the moment is a real nutbuster in so many different ways.Spiritually and mechanically it feels like I wouldn't call it a Kart racer. More like a Rhythm Stunt Racer or something, I dunno. Overall, I just feel like SRB2K and Ring Racists hit better balances of being skill intensive but still ultimately being Kart games.
>>3050729Am I missing something with CrossWorlds or does it just feel sooooooo slooooooooow to other people as well. I wanna like it because it has the pieces of something I'd be interested in, but I completely bounced off the free weekend.Just dunno if that's because you get put in doodoo low speed when low ranked or something until you get enough upgrades or rank ups or some shit
>>3088191>Am I missing something with CrossWorlds or does it just feel sooooooo slooooooooowhmm to me it feels kinda similar to 150cc in mkwii. Maybe slightly slower. It is quite a bit more of a "unskilled" game in online, with how few and rare counters are + item boxes instantly refresh.
