Mario Kart MB - A few questions.

Magiclapras King Offline The guy that keeps disappearing 6253 days karting Australia Gender:	A few questions. 05/13/10 at 03:38:55 I'm thinking about getting this game(if I can find it first), and I want to know a couple of things. What's the best kart to start with(say I haven't unlocked anything yet). Also, which track should I practice MT's and other stuff?

Reply #1 - 05/13/10 at 05:05:04 Well you should play GPs first and unlock barrel train and toad kart, which is nearly as good as barrel train. I think the bullet bill kart is also good (see Richard's MB flap with it!) but I can't remember if that kart is unlocked in the beginning.

no, bullet bill must be unlocked, but i also don't know how ^^
oh and robert: toad kart is NOT as good as the barrel train. it's just as good as barrel train on DK mountain Wink

for practising: just drive some GPs at the beginning... just try to get everywhere 40 points (or 160 in the all cup tours). of course you don't have to^^ if you ant to practise MTs: go on Baby Park, it's the best course for MTing IMO. for A-Tech you should drive on Mushroom Bridge or on Peach Beach :]

I started using Toad Kart even with Barrel Train, and found it easier to hit some low-level PRs. However the two handle very differently, and although I know the BT is much better I can't beat any of my PRs with it now since I'm so used to Toad Kart. I would suggest never using the Toad Kart unless you are looking for a great time on DKM, otherwise stay away.

BT has just the advantage that you can use a-tech with it, but TK cannot. and the MT length is also (almost?) the same... in things of speed they are both the same.. maybe that's not right, but when i drivw with TK i feel that it has the same speed like BT...

Seriously... how to slide in DD?

I played a lot of Mario Kart 64 and when i bought MarioKart DS i was able to slide at the same day..

Now i tried Doubledash (in my shame on an emulator cause i want to test it before i buy a Gamecube) but i cant handle the car. The control is really strange if i press the button for slide (L or R?!) my car most times "break out" that means i cant finish the slide (for example i press left+L, hold L, and move the stick slowly from the left to the right etc.).

Sometimes it works but i cant see any structure it seems like it is just luck .. nothing else...

(Sorry for german post, but it's easier to tell)

^Also um bei MKDD zu driften, kannst du entweder L oder R drücken (würde R empfehlen, ist einfach besser^^) und musst dann den Stick in eine Richtung drücken. Der Drift beginnt, und um ihn jetzt aufzuladen, drückst du zweimal in die entgegengesetzte Richtung, in die dein Kart blickt (also wenn die Spitze vom Kart nach links schaut, musst du schnell 2 Bewegungen nach rechts machen). Ist halt nicht wie bei MKDS, wo man links, rechts, links, rechts drücken muss^^ einfach links links und die Funken müssten Blau sein Wink

Spielst du 50hz oder 60hz? (Bei 50hz kann es sein, dass sich der Drift manchmal nicht auflädt Undecided

)

Spiele ja momentan an nem Emulator und da habe ich 60 HZ gewählt. So wie du das beschreibst ist das tatsächlich völlig anders als bei Mk64 oder MKDS, werde es gleich mal testen!
