These runs are really cool. Some of the MKW players I saw doing the TTs made me cringe, so it's nice to see some good runs from the MK7 players.

I feel like he really used the stick too much while not in boost, therefore he lost a lot of speed pretty much everywhere...
Still cool strat and the corners were pretty tight so yeah! Smiley Nice run.

Yes it is... unfortunately.
You'll notice it whenever you get the opportunity to race against a ghost...

You need to find the precise alignment for the next corner while in boost, otherwise you're screwed. Roll Eyes
Coins help you change your lines too, just like in MK7 basically. Not more, not less.
The only thing that's different is the way to control the kart. It's soooo much harder in MK8 imo.

I seriously have never noticed any such thing in all of the videos/streams I’ve watched, but if it’s true, I’m happy

will add a bit of depth to these seriously simple TTs

Are you talking about the Thwomp Ruins run?  Can you tell me a time in the video where he loses speed from this (are you saying that if you are not drifting, you shouldn't be turning at all?)

@Alak : For example, getting SMTs in short corners was easy on MK7 as you just needed to jump a bit and that's it, you're back with a proper line, but MK8 doesn't and you go straight into the wall/grass etc if you try this out.

@Sam Quote:

Yes.
Mmm from 1:00 to 1:03 for example, then from 1:07 to 1:10.
Didn't check lap 1 but there might be some room for improvment as well imo.

Ok thanks for the info!  I think I agree with Alaktorn, makes things more interesting

I noticed the effect while watching a stream myself, but it's not as time costly as it was in MK7 where you lost a lot of speed by taping a direction with the fastest combos.

You lose at least 1 or 2 tenths everytime you press it too much.

So a few of us on Skype have been discussing these "WRs". We feel that, on release date (May 30th) all records obtained AFTER this release should be counted as WRs. All "WRs" gotten BEFORE then or are BKTs at the time of the game's release are not counted.

It also seems as though the majority of players have managed to get the game three days earlier than release (yesterday) so I'm wondering how this should best be dealt with (if at all).

Abyssion for president

edit: to make kind of an analogy, Nintendo staff’s ghosts are never counted as WRs, they’re just considered as times you have to beat before you can call your own a WR after release (remember Walter’s MK7 RR “WR” that didn’t beat the staff ghost?); so that’s how before-release times should be considered, too

btw this should go on Cole’s topic

How are we going to differentiate between times set beforehand and times set afterwards? If times still stand while being released before the game, I don't see the problem with them counting as actual times.
Also:

The BKT on Thwomp Ruins as of this post.

I wonder how we’re gonna keep an accurate WR history for the first few days/weeks of release… WRs are bound to get beaten by the hour, if you don’t check for 2 hours you could see 2 new best times and not know if the 2nd was a WR before or not…
