Title: Will you get MK8 Deluxe?
Post by Jazzy on 02/04/17 at 11:14:32

Will you be getting MK8 Deluxe? Let us know. We're trying to gauge how much interest there is in MK8 Deluxe, for the Players' Page in particular. Please tell us which of these options most fits you. The first five options are the most useful information for us, so only pick "I'm not sure" if you really are undecided.

Also, post below to share your opinions on the new version of the game. Personally, I'll probably get it just for the portability aspect.

I'm personally not interested in getting the game in the near future, moreso at the price point proposed (which is more than what I paid for the Wii U version AND the DLC packs!). I've never been too big on the battle mode, and it doesn't seem like the old traditional "last man standing" version will be there neither.

And the other minor additions don't give an excuse to play the game as a time trialer, assuming the gameplay remains identical like some of the players that got a hands-on on the demo are claiming.

I could still end up with the game as my brothers are somewhat interested in the new characters and the new battle mode variants like Bob-omb Blast, but even then I don't see myself playing it much with Splatoon 2 on the horizon.

I should be there for the proper sequel though ;)

You forgot "No, I'm defenitely not going to get the Switch"

Post by DiamondMaster on 02/04/17 at 12:33:50

As of right now, I don't think I'll be getting it, but I voted "I'm not sure" for the time being.

Post by Rookie on 02/04/17 at 18:51:51

I'm leaning towards no. If there's no difference in game mechanics it may be best to let the MK8 site take in both. Maybe if there's no advantage in MK8D, have separate charts for Non Advantage or something.

Pretty much I feel like if no mechanics are changed at all we definitely shouldn't make a new page.

Title: Re: Will you get MK8 Deluxe?
Post by Jazzy on 02/04/17 at 23:14:19

Cole, Mick and I have already decided that we're going to have separate charts on the same Players' Page for the MK8 Deluxe. This will likely also apply to MKWRs. I've already begun work on this for the new version of the MK8 PP I'm working on programming. That being said, down the road if we decide that the games are similar enough, we will make combined charts (this will likely not happen until I finish the new PP).

The reason we are not going to combine the charts right from the start is because there are too many unknowns. We don't know if there will be minor changes in the physics that are too small to easily notice, and we don't know how the new karts or characters could affect things. Then there's the question of controller advantages as you pointed out. Also, some people will want to know when a time was set with the Deluxe version of the game, or may only want to compete with people who are playing the same version as them.

I already pre-ordered my Nintendo Switch, Zelda BotW, Super Bomberman R, and four accessories 3 weeks ago but I will buy MK8 Deluxe and the set of 2 Joy[ch8209]Con Wheels at the same time and only at the launch of the game because it is not necessary to pre-order this stuff for now. And I can't vote because I would like this: "Yes; but I probably won't compete on the Switch version" but there is no option. I'm not even competing on the Wii U version but I like and I have all MKs, I like them all just for fun but SMK is the only one I registered for TT and GP records so it's still possible that I will register to the other Players' Pages at some point, why not MK8 Deluxe? I wanted to register on the MK7 PP before the end of December 2016 but something completely changed my happy mood on November, 8 (thanks The Donald). Comparing MK8 with MK8 Deluxe I'm really more interested now that I can play it anytime and anywhere and more interested by playing it in -a real- handheld mode and of course interested by playing it in tabletop mode, it's something I wanted to happen since the emergence and the rise of the tablet gaming and especially since I bought in 2014 my Archos GamePad 2, a real tablet and handheld console, it's very good for retrogaming, plus all the Android gaming experience using mapping tool, and I can even play it on a TV by using a micro HDMI cable, Archos did a very good product for gamers but it just missed an important feature that Nintendo made possible now by encompassing all experiences of gameplay possible and beyond!

The "NX", The Nintendo Switch, will be a very good experience again and not only for the hardcore Nintendo fans, remember that it's the last gift of Mr. Iwata. (https://www.nintendo.co.jp/corporate/release/en/2015/150317qa/03.html)

Have you decided if there will be a separate board on this mb for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe yet?

That's not my decision, but my guess is that it will be the same message board section.

I'm leaning towards not buying MK8D.  Too much money for essentially the same game.  Maybe if it was $49.99 instead of $79.99, I'd consider it.

I will buy the box version to keep my mario kart collection completed, but I won't buy switch now, only in a few years, probably when MK9 arrives.

Btw, here is my MK collection.  ;)

Nice collection :)

As for getting this version of 8 yes only because of a return of a old favorite i've long to play since the original release Bowser Jr!!!

also i cannot let the clan population overtake this game as well as troll and other threats that will keep game all the more less enjoyable because of possibilities like this 8-)

and for those in the know yes, anti-clans are here to stay regardless of versions of a game previously release. ;D

Nope. MK8 is honestly a very shitty game imo, and with MK8D just being a "version 2.0" that costs 80 fucking dollars, it's just a complete rip off because I've already spent $60 on MK8, plus another $16 for its dlc. You mean to tell me I gotta pay another $80 for a few features that should have been in MK8 in the first place? No fucking way. Even if MK8D was $40 I would still say its a rip off.

Of course if you haven't bought MK8 at all, then the game is definitely worth it for you.

Ikr. It's such a rip off to pay an extra $20 for main content not in mk8 that's been in past mk games. Nintendo's such a retarded company these days

Don't really care. It's still a waste of money as I've already explained. Besides, that just means I spent more money to buy regular MK8 + dlc, when I should've instead been a psychic and waited until now to get everything and more for $60. Yeah, not sure how I'm just a blind hater here ;D

Well assuming you bought MK8, that means you spent $120+ on that one game. Explain how we're crazy for thinking it was $80 and you're not crazy for paying even more than that? More power to you though. You're doing exactly what Nintendo wants you to do. You paid for MK8, and you paid for the same game to make up for the Wii U's failure.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

The Wii U was a failure, I agree.
But MK8 Deluxe is not the same game than MK8 no matter what you say, you should consider the new MK8 as a GOTY+ edition, and yes I said PLUS, it means the original game with all of the original DLC (3) and in 1080p HD quality in TV mode for the first time (Wii U = 720p) + all the new content and features that MK8 doesn't have (and the list is long).
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the definitive version of Mario Kart 8!

So, Batman5112 it's up to you to play like a fool in Gotham City if you want and pretending to be a blind hater ;D , but if you refuse to see the reality, and even worse, if you distort the truth by telling your false and misleading claims like MK8 Deluxe is $80 etc, well, in other words; how do I know that I want to listen to you anymore when I'm not really sure you want to listen to me :P
The only things I know and I'm sure about you right now are; you don't want to buy MK8 Deluxe and about MK8 you've said:

I took that for granted rather than searching for it. So no, that wasn't just a random number I made up. I'm not delusional. I realize it's $60 now, so why must you insist to reemerge this? Plus, if everyone now knows what I previously said is incorrect, how exactly I'm I misleading anyone? All someone has to do now is read ahead to get the truth; or you know, goggle google it. You're exaggerating this just a bit I say. Though I'm sure in your mind, I'm exaggerating this altogether, so I guess we're of a more even playing field  [smiley=lolk.gif]

I'm not mocking the game's quality at all. Very much the opposite. It's just that my experience with MK8 was not as memorable nor as fun as some other MK games I've played, or other games in general. At worst, it was shit and I wish I never bought it; sadly I lean more towards this.

MK8D is for upper middle to die-hard MK8 fans only. It has many cool, extra features that obviously make it the superior game to the original. Did I not say that if you haven't bought nor played MK8, then MK8D is without question a game to pick up and try? That indicates that yes, I know MK8D>MK8 by default.

But when I wasn't a fan of MK8 to begin with, what exactly is compelling me to go get this game, when I acquire no additional, enjoyable gaming experiences? And I'm sorry, but it is the same game at the core. If it were a different game, everyone would be calling it MK9.

So because I see it as the same game, in my view, buying MK8D is a rip off if you already own MK8. It's just fact. Nintendo sucked big time with long-term planning for this game. If I own MK8 +dlc, I already have 48/48 tracks, 30+ characters, etc. So for me, I'm paying $60 exclusively for the extra features, and regardless of how much of a needed addition these features are, it isn't worth $60. It's the same scenario as a dlc pack that costs $60. It's dumb, and it just highlights how close-minded Nintendo can be.

But as everyone knows, these additional features could be all that's needed to compel someone to go buy it, and as I said, more power to you if you are one of those people. But me, all I care about is core gameplay (not from battle mode), and MK8 does not deliver there for me, so MK8D won't either. And that's kind of been my message: if your experience with MK8 was just average; a game you played for less than a year, then put it down and never touched it again, MK8D will end the same way. So, why buy the game, besides to complete a collection?

Anyway, I'm just ranting at this point. If I were a rich fuck, I would buy it without thinking too much about it, and I'm sure that's what everyone here is doing anyway. Everyone has their reasons to make their own purchase, and at the end of the day, who should give a fuck about that? So, I hope everyone has fun with MK8D.  ;)

Supy is from Canada, the price is right there ($79.99):

This is so obvious it was the Canadian dollar that I wonder how on Earth have you thought about the United States dollar first, dude $80 for a MK game (huh) it's more than the majority of the regular PC/PS4/Xbox One games...

Now you're making some really good explanations there :D, better than just coming for saying "shitty game" "no fucking way".., m'kay it is the same game at the core! [smiley=beer.gif]

And MK9, MK9, MK9.., I'm not really sure the next (real/true/whatever) MK will be numbered, but well everyone is waiting for something, but I think there is no time for speculation, especially for Nintendo that has not even launched the currently last Mario Kart (8 Deluxe) yet ;D , so we will see :D

Nintendo's gotten lazy with names. So it's a safe bet the next main MK game will be named either MK9 or MK *insert next console name* We're many years away from this though. I predict 4-5 years we'll get a trailer of "MK9"

It certainly wasn't my intention to stir up shit for the sake of it. You coming out to critique me means I did not do a good job explaining my position; by the looks of, I at least now did a decent job. Cheers

No. I don't plan on getting a switch right now and it's basically paying more for the same game, except with some small additions and no fire hopping. 200cc TTs look cool though

I'm trying so hard right now not to cave in and buy the game, It's fucking $90 with tax.  [smiley=dead.gif]

Edit: For those who have the game, how is it?  Are time trials similar to MK7 where lines are most important rather than hopping techs?

Title: Re: Will you get MK8 Deluxe?
Post by Timothy on 07/17/17 at 10:16:24

I hadn't even payed attention to this game until I saw mkwrs.com had been updated with MKDX times. I have to say, although it's interesting seeing the 150cc game play as intended (I didn't even realise that fire hopping had been removed until I watched the new WRs), it looks boring as sin. Whereas 200cc just looks like chaos, I can't imagine it being fun online at all. Needless to say, I'll be avoiding this overpriced expansion pack.

Title: Re: Will you get MK8 Deluxe?
Post by Jazzy on 07/17/17 at 17:18:02

I personally love the game. Strats are similar to MK7 without the mt's into walls and weird glider maneuvers. No SC's so far either, just like the original MK8. The extra item slot in online games is something I've really enjoyed. Haven't been much into battle, it's not my thing anyway.

I am playing right now also i feel game itself deserves it's own area it is understandable it is port of original version but at least it makes forum itself tidy yes :)

my main concern is gold-diggers (or what i have learn an alternative term from others called them "Smurfers") still bringing inconvenience to beginners this has been big problem since original MK8 sadly from what my sister as told me after her onlines i fear things have not change if not more worse then Wii U's version [smiley=thumbdown.gif] will pros ever learn to not leapfrog of of those who play for sake of playing? :-/
