Last Month the Japanese try to retrive this mod a little bit more. They played in the at 2pm CET. At the moment the gametracker,com Server Monitorring is off. Hope soon they turn it on. The ranking seems to work.
:o o man that would be fun lol everybody would try to drive the least travelled path... and everyone would then try to lay mines on those paths.. oh man the psychological warfare would be intense __________________
haha, idea, may be more fun for karts, not sure about possibilty, but have the karts drop like a small roadblock behind them, and it can be like a vehicle, so that other players can shoot it to get it out of their way __________________
gotta admit, tht'd be pretty funny in problematic xD maybe make the mines only do low damage with a small explosive force, stop ya being blown off the track too much. __________________

i'd get pissed if someone dropepd a mine right before the finish __________________
well its not like its hard to code mines into the kart, so why not run a test with mines and see how it goes. if ppl get pissed or it just goes and screws up, remove em and release. __________________
And I guess I got another 10% done last night.. I'm trying to stick to the original Black Rock style of multiple routes.. but I'm a perfectionist.. and so to make each route 'fair' is tricky.. I dont want there to be one clear 'faster' route of the two. I want variation..
That second jump.. with perfect landing.. is a perfect landing every time if you hit the jump straight and pure... That ramp and landing spot took 2 hours to get right. The whole map is full of that kinda shit. This race is as clean as lakeside.. but just a whole heap more fun. Some kind of mine object would be fun but I think you will start with none... but then be able to pick up a mine or 2 on the way.. maybe a rocket launcher would be better though so people behind can catch up... as opposed to the leader simply being able to make life even harder for those trying to catch up. There is a very windy ridge path halfway through the map which is tricky to take at speed.. but possible.. It is certainly an area of the map that will allow skillful drivers to 'catch up' if you have been slow at the start. There will also be nitro style strips in the map which again only work as you cross over them. Rubba suggested that you could start with an empty no2 tank.. and as you pass over the 'boost strip' on track your tank is 'replenished' but used instantly.. because the button to fire the no2 is actually 'w' too.. so it happens instantly when you pass over.. maybe a jump bitton too.. like the stratos jumpers.. but one single hit that jumpes you a couple of feet in the air.. using similar technique to Phenoms buggy flip in Stunt Mountain (is that whats its called? )
also another idea... instead of mines, how bout trap zones where another weapon fire is attatched to the w key and when you drive through it a 10 second wall will pop up __________________
uhm hit a weapon spot and out spawns a miniature monster truck wheel with nitro boosters, and they bounce and are effected by hills so it could be a substitute for the turtle shell __________________
Lol, you could replace the idea of a monster truck with the flying car at the end of Grand Canyon, or maybe 3 or 4 P.S. dunno is homing missles are possible, just a suggestion __________________
a green shell would work just as well as the tire. the shell itself just needs to be like, mat-id 37 or something so it'll bounce off walls, and a small blast radius for it to hit accurately __________________
because if the karts don't have mines, then it leaves the borders open, women will have abortions, scientists will sacrifice embryos for stem-cell research, gays will marry, flags will be burned, and the terrorists win. __________________
Alex, it is interstate... all vehicles should have some sort of weapon. That just goes without saying __________________

This is the stupidest thing about is82 i've ever heard, karts.. pure racing.. gotta love flying over those hills! And I cant believe 26 people voted to have freakin MINES on the karts.. HELLO? People always get mad when they get killed on racemaps, imagine having a nice race on this map, then some noob in front of you drops a mine.. boom.. dead.. I would get pissed. Just dont have any weapons on the karts, it's Interstate, yea, but the whole mod has changed, if you want autocombat, play the original maps, anyways, that's my opinion. __________________
yeah is interstate but shoot on maps where u are supposed to shoot not on RACE MAPS, so i think will be more correct to kill on race maps when u finished tha map not when racing!!! __________________
I guess what would be good is to have some way of assisting people to catch up. This race is long like Black Rock... If you fuckup at the start you will struggle to catch up with the pro's.
What we really need is 'lightning' but thats gonna be to tough EVEN for slicksharppooper to code for us.
If not mines.. then think on folks... I think the crazy MT wheel is pretty cool though
I guess guns that shoot forward.. so there is no advantage to the people in the front could be cool.. especially if the weapon slowed down or in some way affected the car in front without actually killing the driver..
I will not just put mines on the car. and anyway.. if a dude has a mine then DON'T sit on his arse!
You HAVE played Mariokart dudes??? __________________

It's not in mario kart, one word.
OIL.
xD Being able to drop planes ( the 3ds max shape ) of oil ( mat id for slippy grass ) would rock.. everyone behind you would slow down __________________

Oh and you refuel at those oilpumps lol __________________
oh man heres an idea, launch a heat seeking rocket that fires stright up, and curves down towards its target... that way you can take out the guy in front of you, even if he is to far to kill with regular weapons __________________
