MK8 patch coming on August 27th (3 new karts)
08/05/14 at 23:00:57

Don't have time to elaborate much, since I'm leaving for the whole day, but there's some pretty cool stuff that we should have had to begin with.
Includes 3 new Mercedes karts.

A map on screen and a records page so I can see how far from the gold glider I am, awesome!

I wonder what stats the karts will have, the classic f1 car will probably be the mach 8 line of specs I guess

Apparantly one of the features of the update is "other problems will be addressed".
Hopefully nothing to do with the mechanics of the game Smiley

It doesn't have to be faster to be superior. The hitbox could be more interesting for example.

Hopefully these karts can't fire hop in any way, shape, or form, yet are still so inanely fast they're the best karts for TT's anyways.

Edit:

Haha, in Nintendo's newest video, they say something along the lines of "MK8 is insanely tested" or something, yet they clearly didn't test for fire hopping.

This patch will probably be downloadable in about 8 hours 20 minutes from this post when the servers are back up from maintenance

Maybe good players should check what people are saying about the update before downloading just for the very remote chance it does change a game mechanic and people would need to argue about the way forward, negligible chance I suppose Questioning

I tried GLA on Sherbet Land, but I still prefer the Badwagon since it makes the double coin at the start easier.

I PR'd with Blue Yoshi (1:48.197). Can people without the patch/DLC pre-order still view the ghost?
Also there's a new feature where a screenshot automatically gets uploaded with your TT:
