Is it better than DD or Mario Kart DS? What are the controls like?

The_B_Man

there are DS levels u can play on this!!

the 1 player is easy but online is a lot harder. no lag either, which is very welcome!

did i see u online, denis?? im pretty sure i left ya behind in one of the levels???

Steak

any lag while playing online?

I'm finding the online play pretty good so far, though I'm getting "disconnected from opponents" way too many times for my liking. It wasn't too bad at first as it would only happen between races, but I just got booted halfway through a race there.

Otherwise no problems and the actual multiplayer gameplay is great!

Brilliant game, played it for about 5-6 hours with the missus mostly online and had no problems with it at all, not even a hint of lag. Started pretty well but had a few beers though and have been progressively shíter as the evening wore on:o Fantastic fun all round though.

Really enjoying playing this game wheel works surprisingly well
What Kart/driver combos are you guys using ?? what do you thing id the best all rounder ?

The_B_Man

mario/luigi are usually the best all rounders. the small guys hav good acceleration and the big guys have a high top speed. then the vintage cars seem to hav the better acceleration, while the standard ones have a higher top speed. same goes with the motorbikes.

i just won something for winning 50 races online

except... ive only had about 9 races

I hate the wheel. GC controll is better especially for drifting. The only thing missing is voice chat.

That happened with me to. It was a cart. I dont think i even played nine at that stage....

djkeogh

yea I got another character unlocked earlier saying I'd played 250 online races. I don't think i've played that much. One player is uninspiring but online is where the game truly excels. Great stuff

Me too, I got it even though I hadn't won a single race online at the time

mayordenis

i think its for beating a certain amount of people on line so if you come second in a race of 12 you beat 10 people without winning the race.

spicywedge

very good thanks mayordenis

The_B_Man
