I've gotten to 10 a couple times but top 3 still eludes me.
Are you looking forward to the King Cup later this month?
not unless I get my queen cup win first
4 hours between queen cup attempts and then, after kings cup, presumably 6 hours? frick, man
I have a Queen Cup but not a Knight. shit's annoying, I really hate how they make the prixes available, the game is significantly less fun during weekdays
the current system doesnt work. The tickets are already gatekeeping; just let people select the cup they wanna do.
2 options minimum
I'm looking forward to the day people stop letting game companies scam them.
Stop teasing us with the only good f-zero!
>Nintendo Online shill thread #290
Turns out F-Zero being dead was a blessing in disguise.
I have two goose wins, one on Mute City I and one on Port Town I. Haven't won a Prix yet, closest I've came is second on Knight.
I can get 2-5 places but if I managed to be 1st I fumble it and either explode or drop back to 20th.
Never played any F-Zero growing up but I'm really enjoying this game. It's made me hope that Nintendo gives the series an actual revival
>Enter Queen Cup
>An error has occurred
>Get 1 win
>it's the middle of a mini prix
I still get the mark on my card, but a bit annoyed I didn't get the customization from it.
If you can do it once, you can do it again.
I plan to anon, this game is fricking addicting for some reason.
Everyone gets addicted to open world bullshit that bores me to death, but every single time I get addicted to some oine game it's always one with the simplest gimmick.
F-Zero 99's concept is so simplistically dumb that it flips around to being absolute genius. It's you, 98 other people and a race track. No disrespect, no teabagging, no post race shitposting PMs. If you're bad, you lose and if ypu're modest, it's easy to just be satisfied with the modest results you get. I happy if I can at least get top 25. One step at a time.
I like that this game doesn't have battle passes or events which only occur once.
My mindset. So far I was able to finish a Grand Prix in 7th place and I clutched a 2nd place in F-Zero 99 mode because of one dumb choke at the very end which allowed the Black person behidn me to pass me right at the finish line and even though my impatient ass struggle to finish races because I crash at least 80% of the time, my mindset is if I was able to touch it, I can get it.
I ranked top 10 in a grand prix and touched the 1st place. So I'll keep going until I do.
I think I am ass at the game because of the fact that I crash so often, but when I finish a race, 7 times out 10 I am in the top 25 and out of those 10 times, I am top 10 at least 3 times. Consistency is always my problem in every competitive game.
>Consistency is always my problem in every competitive game.
Placing first nearly always requires you to make at most, one mistake. One red bumper and you can maybe still take first.
Lots of people are complaining about no matchmaking via skill, and rightfully so. But for all of you still struggling for wins, try doing 99s during Pro Track rotation because all the high skilled players congregate there, and avoid 99s during Team Battle rotations.

The weekend threads are explosive. Best to otherwise have one a day. It's the ones being made in the late evening that keep dying overnight.
Please tell me again why everyone hates on Golden Fox when it's easily the biggest glass canon of the roster?
And come to think of it, isn't that the machine everyone was saying to pick when the game had just released.
>First few threads
>YO PICK GOLDEN FOX GOLDEN FOX BEST CHOICE 20XX FOX ONLY BEHBYY
>Weeks later
>LMAO GOLDEN FAUX FOXgayS ON SUICIDE WATCH!
From my experience, there doesn't seem to be a superior machine. Everything seems contextual in this game and machines seems to fit player archetypes more than they seem to fit on a classic tier list. So far I've played extensively with all the machines and I constantly go back to Golden Fox and that machine doesn't shine in any other places than Mute City 1 and Death Wind 1 so far. Every other tracks I see my energy bar getting depleted in seconds if I ever end up in the bully zone and I have to play out of my ass to be able to clutch a top 10 position.
And before you throw some bullshit projections at me. I always pick the hardest tracks because that's specifically on those tracks that Golden Fox struggles the most and I need practice. Why does everyone pick Death Wind 1 over Sand Canyon every single time? Easy win or not, Death wind 1 is just fricking BOOOORING AS FRICK!
Frick Nascar.
Anybody who thinks Golden Fox is EZMODE free wins has clearly never played it. On literally ANY map that isn't Mute City, you will NEVER get your full gauge back, because only Mute City has long pits. On every other map in the game, you are constantly whittling your health away lap by lap and if you frick up even once it's almost guaranteed to over. You will not have enough energy to do your boosts, and you'll get overtaken quickly, by which point you're just subsumed by the crowd and have to tough it out, because now you're chipped even further and you're not going to ever be able to pull away to the lead again.
>when it's easily the biggest glass canon of the roster?
because it absolutely fricking isn't? Stingray has a harder time staying alive, Fox's recovery makes it the tankiest car
>glass cannon
>can go from blinking red to full health every lap
Uh-huh. Sure. Not saying Fox requires no skill or anything, but let's at least be honest about its capabilities.
>it's easily the biggest glass canon of the roster
Try playing the Stingray, and then deal with the almost complete inability to recover power.
>he has the lowest top speed!
>*boosts*
>he doesn't survive in the pack!
>*boosts 3 times to start the race*
>he has the worst turning!
>*boosts out of sharp turn*
>he's the easiest to KO!
>*spins into the pit during single moment of weakness*
heh... nothin personnel....kid
The average joe likes to blame their failure to win on whatever is seen as the most meta so you can ignore the whiny posts entirely.
That being said I would say Fox isn't that hard to use. It has a bit of a barrier of entry, learning how to deal with its lower grip, but once that's out of the way it's a much easier frontrunner than stingray and can afford to make more mistakes than it. Stingray has more "max potential" but fox is a lot more stable and consistent.
BUM
BA-DUM
BUM
BA-DUM
Haha. No.
13 wins so far with most of them split up between falcon and goose. Still haven't gotten a blue falcon win in 99 mode, though.
I have made peace with the fact that I will never win. It simply is not part of my fate.
>I have made peace with the fact that I will never win. It simply is not part of my fate.
same. atleast getting ko's is pure sex
just go to practice mode toxoplasmosis poster
I got 3rd Place for the first-time after playing super clutch with Ray on White Land I because I wanted to get top 25 on the leaderboard to get a unlock. It felt really good.
What is the Brawler stat? I can be 1st with Stingray but 40th with Goose
It's based on how much Smash Bros you've played.
Umm... Bros?
Anyone there?
YOU WIN
sorry bro, I'm busy toiling away in the spreadsheet mines
Nobody wants to play with Goose anymore.
oh?
>Only one burst left with the King League updates
>Then a return to the usual silence until a new F-Zero game is (hopefully) announced
These were fun threads, and I'm glad to see that so many people still care about the franchise. I pray that the positive reception and solid population it retained for a 99 game showed Nintendo that there actually is money in a new F-Zero, or at least a X/GX remake.
There's still the chance the Satellaview tracks get added. A file with "Forest" was datamined.
holy shit that would be awesome
I hope the Satellaview-only OSTs get put into the game as a result.
They’re not going to remake either, especially GX, it’s either a new sequel with a bent towards online or nothing. I think a new entry would basically be X mixed with climax and 99 mechanics. GX trannies will hate it.
Go frick yourself paid shill gx mogs this game
GX has the worst machine balance, half of the “advanced techniques” are accidents, and the game is so easy to break you don’t really have to play around other racers at all. Also crappy “gotcha” meme tracks and most of the goodwill are from people with story mode PTSD when they were 12
People who use the word mog are moronic and it makes them sound like they're 12.
Mog is like, a middle schooler word.
I wish little Black folk like you would stop turning GX into shitposting material. GX is incredible, 99 is a blast. Get bent.
People ass kissing GX is probably partly why Nintendo refuses to make any new entries, they want 2k/M with snaking and MTS. 99 takes an awful lot of design cues from X.
Go play outside you little rascal.
I'm holding out hope that the SatellaView courses and additional modes get added.
It really has been fun, but I'd rather see it come to an end after King than become a general.
>Then a return to the usual silence until a new F-Zero game is (hopefully) announced
See you in another 20 years anon.
Even with the lower population I'm still getting 99 players pretty quick. It'll probably be a long time until the game finally kicks the bucket.
How good are the bots it gets filled up in that event? I never had an empty lobby so far.
They are bad. They're absolutely not aggresive. Fox is so fricking unbalanced he will still run away the lead if the bot doesn't frick up, at least on Death Wind. Still a win is guaranteed, if you don't frick up.
The casuals are leaving the game since they are too demoralized to play with the 99+ win speedrun gods.
Casuals are probably leaving because there’s only 4 machines.
Lol
A good roster of machines is half the game’s identity, secondary
No one cares about the number of machines. Everyone has already decided on what their favorite is. It's 100% inability to win and lack of track variety.
People have always cared about a large, fun roster. People have always gotten attached to a particular machine no matter how good or bad it is. That’s what separates F-zero from other racers, secondary
This conversation is about why the casuals are leaving. It's obvious that there being 4 machines to choose from is not the reason they're leaving and would be not their first concern in general.
What you're talking about is F-zero fans who cared before 99, not the casuals.
Large roster would imply there are meaningful unlocks to work towards. Nintendo already stretched it thin with just 4 machines. Casuals play Mario kart in droves and they have always been attached to particular characters/machines as well.
You've only played a few racing games, right.
Now's my time to shine!
Blue Falcon is average at everything which sucks
Wild Goose is a noob trap that just sucks
Golden Fox is good but if you aren’t leading after the first lap he sucks
Fire Stingray is good but forces you to do perfect lines which sucks
Who else looks forward to being a lucky bumper?
Only if Fox is in first place
Still my fricking teambattle win from weeks ago and thus I have that little number 1, but I've never won a real race. REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Falcon bump!
The sand ocean bassline refuses to leave my head
for me it's port towns
i've gotten 200 or so, stingray main
I fricking hate DW2 because every time I try to line up for the first boost in that chicane area I get bumped and it completely throws me off
For me, it's the Goose.
Man, Mute Town continues to just be a crap shoot.
>ruins your GP
If I keep making consisten top 10s with stick drift do you guys think I have a win chance if I get it fixed?
I finally got my first GP win on Knight League. Won 4 out of 5 races, my heart was fricking racing at the end.
the stingray is such a cutie
I love the smug-ass face it has especially now that I have the sparkly gold skin
I literally can't win anymore. It might be time to pack it up for me.
I just lapped 6 people the last time I won on White Land I.
There's still hope for you, the noobs aren't gone yet.
>pick falcon
>bleed rank
>Golden Fox
do you have a link to the source video?
just literally google tem rule 34 man its not that hard
You don't want to know
I don’t think I’ll ever get a GP win (other than the mini prix; I have one of those) but I do have 10 regular wins. Which is nice. It’s a fun game. Wish I was better but I can’t beat these dudes with 99+ wins and shit
Nope
I've managed a few wins and peaked at S- Rank.
Its not GX. This is hipster trash
>hipster
>popular, new thing
It would help your bait if you used words properly.
>multiplayer racing is hipster trash
I don't really like this game. It really feels like pure luck determines the outcome. F-zero stages were not made to have this many people racing on them at one time.
I really want to play this on the go, but the joycons are so horrible tho.
Don't use the stick, use the d-pad
how do I place higher than 50th
>Log in
>Get my daily win on Mute City
>Log out
STOP THE COUNT
KEK nice racing brother
frickin hell lmao
Whoa, neat.
even 99 lobbies aren't fully filling now is it doomposting time
I've never seen an empty lobby
i've gotten a 1st place in both the blue falcon and the wild goose. the blue falcon happened on like my 3rd ever race so i was still pretty low rank. the wild goose was a lot harder to get the win on since i had ranked up a lot by then it seems.
No but really where are the empty lobbies i want to win a game
Then play aggressive. Get those KO's to fill your boost.
Frick, it's dead.
