I can play right now, until about 6:00pm.

I'm online now.

EDIT: Mates have turned up early! Can we try and set-up a game tomorrow? :)

Alright then, you've got my FC already so it shouldn't be a problem.

Anyone else?

Those were some great games earlier Dcubed! http://www.n-europe.com/forum/images/icons/icon14.gif

The wish race track you made was completely mental! :heh: We must have fallen of that track like 50 times each! I thought it was hilarious. The editor might be crap, but there's potential for some really fun races on the custom tracks.

Has anyone managed to play a 6 player game yet?

Katie

I went into a 6 player game but I think only 5 stayed. I'm rubbish at it at the moment.

I went into a 6 player game but I think only 5 stayed. I'm rubbish at it at the moment.I thought I was alright, but then I played against 3 other people (that were all playing as T.T) and they took me to school, I came last in every race! :o

Anyway, added your code. I'm online for a bit now if you fancy a game.

Is it pure racing skills in this or are there snakers?

RedShell

Is it pure racing skills in this or are there snakers?Well there's no mini boost like in MKDS, when you hold down R you do like a power slide but you don't get a boost at the end of it.

As for if there's a way to exploit that move though, well I've got no idea. ::shrug:
I think the character you choose has a big influence on how well you'll do, as far as I can tell the majority of people that win online are using T.T.

I'm nowhere near to unlocking him yet though. :shakehead

People who use TT online have a massively unfair advantage, especially as they have already completed the game, and use a character much better than all the others.

Seriously, what are these people playing for? It's not fun to win every time, and theres no ranking to show off, either. Still, with no rankings, you can teach TT users a lesson. I'd say just quit. Wheres the fun in an unfair match?

Still, I had a 4-player match, one used TT, but I still played (it's fun to compete against the other 2), and managed to get a 2nd. (Took over someone using Drumstick using the 3rd Level Magnet weapon).

Hopefully, I'll be able to play tonight. My code: 017271-983200

I've added both Katie and Cube, hope to see ya online later!

My FC is 4295,8875,6520 if you missed it!

Katie

13-02-2007, 05:41 PM

It will also be harder against anyone that has had vehicle upgrades, I've only bought the first one that unlocks the others so far.

I'll add everyone soon and will probably be up for some games later tonight.

Dcubed

13-02-2007, 06:03 PM

Anyone up for a game right about now?

Cube

13-02-2007, 06:22 PM

I'll be ready for a game in 10 mins.

Dcubed

13-02-2007, 06:27 PM

Okie dokie, I'll be on MSN :)

RedShell

13-02-2007, 09:26 PM

I'll be ready for a game in 10 mins.Okie dokie, I'll be on MSN :)That was pure luck that I found you guys online, the see who's online feature is really useful!

I suck at that collect the token game though. Oh and who made the tiny circle wish race track? That thing was ridiculous! :laughing:

Katie

13-02-2007, 09:33 PM

I'm ready to play now, is anyone else still playing?

Cube

13-02-2007, 09:40 PM

I'm read to play now, is anyone else still playing?

I'm still playing.

edit: RedShell has a game up.

Dcubed

13-02-2007, 09:41 PM

Yeah that was a track I had saved :)

Sure I`ll play ya Katie, just hop online!

WTF happened I just got disconnected for no reason!

Oh well, you guys and gals have fun!

RedShell

13-02-2007, 10:18 PM

WTF happened I just got disconnected for no reason!I'm thinking it's finding it hard to cope with 6 players, I'm pretty surprised it can do it at all!

By the way, who was that racing as T.T in the second game? He like a DKR pro or something? :heh:
I get the feeling I'm gonna get sick of seeing T.T online, until I un-lock him myself. :wink:

Katie

13-02-2007, 10:53 PM

It was Smiffy, he has had a lot more practice than me, I'll have to get playing tomorrow to get better. I was so lost on those last 2 tracks I got lapped.

Cube

13-02-2007, 11:09 PM

I suck at that collect the token game though. Oh and who made the tiny circle wish race track? That thing was ridiculous! :laughing:

That was DCubed. I made the large track.

Dyson

This game is hot. Me and Cube are WifI'ing it up right now, and it'd be awesome to have everyone else joining in a 6 player mash.

Shame wish races suck so much ._.

RedShell

14-02-2007, 04:11 PM

Me and Cube are WifI'ing it up right now, and it'd be awesome to have everyone else joining in a 6 player mash.Yeah I saw you both online but the game had a padlock symbol on it as you were already playing so I couldn't get in. :shakehead

It would have been cool if you could join an existing game and just watch it until it ended, then be added to the next race.

Anyone want a game now? I'm crap btw.

EDIT: Won't be that bloody turtle again and very sorry RedShell for the awful created track i just did, i actually found it pretty hilarious though as i kept falling off like every second.I actually thought it was a well designed track. Although I fell off it quite a lot too, but hey that's half the fun of wish race! :grin:

RedShell

16-02-2007, 01:05 PM

Did anyone manage to play this online yesterday?

I was on at around 6 but got disconnected from every game I got into. Kept coming up with weird error messages, I guess WFC was down the toilet. ::shrug:

Track Editor thing ain't too bad. :)

Hosting now!

Hey good race, I see you've been practicing! (TT ;) )

I haven't even started Adventure 2 yet, I've only just unlocked it you see.

RedShell

22-02-2007, 02:02 PM

Hey good race, I see you've been practicing! (TT ;) )Well just a little bit! :wink:

Good races though. I completely forgot you could enable the CPU racers on VS, I switched that option on for my copy after our game last night.
Much more fun with all the characters racing! http://www.n-europe.com/forum/images/icons/icon14.gif

Just got this game today. My friend code is 270675-952628. Havent upgraded my vehicle yet, so I am an easy challenge I guess. Will be around tonight if anyone wants a game tho!

welsh_gamer

03-05-2007, 12:41 PM

Thought I'd bump this thread up, seeing as we have new owners of this game now, and more gamers to have 6 player matches :smile:

Anyone for a big grand prix tonight?? :heh:

Cube

I currently have no method of connecting my DS to the internet (WPA security) - I'll be able to when I get my new computer and install the Nintendo WiFi USB Connector.

edit: And before anyone says, the USB Connector works fine on Vista.

edit: How about a rule to make it fair: Use a new save file for the game. No unlocked characters or upgrades?
