We seem to have trapped one of the mods within the forum's code... and we're not sure how to get him out. Oh well, he'll figure it out!

WELL, I FIGURED OUT WHY THE DRIFT WAS SO SHIT.

It turns out that characters DO matter in this game. Never before have I played a Mario Kart game that penalises you much for choosing a heavy character. And since when was DK a heavyweight?? He's never been that before! Now he can't turn corners for peanuts!! :(

So, I've decided to go for Toad. I was originally Toad back in MK64 and MKDS until I kept getting smashed off Rainbow Road in DS... You could do some ridiculous things to lightweights back in that game... XD

So yeah, I'm now Toad!! I can finally drift around corners again!! Not quite as good as MK7, but it'll do. Now I just need internet. ;)

DK has always been a heavyweight since 64.
Try to do everything; you're bound to succeed with at least one.

??? He's always been a heavyweight. Are you thinking of Diddy Kong?

SlowPokemon

Uh, you figured out nothing (or at least I still don't understand your issue). I find that the heavy characters are actually way better to use in Mario Kart 8, and usually I use lightweights in the other games.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

MaestroUGC

Yeah, I find that the heavies control much better in this game than they have in the past, of course this is mitigated by the whole customization thing. I generally go for a mostly balanced ride anyway, allows me to run through the courses however the situation demands and doesn't force me to rely on keeping my lines when sh*t is going down around me.

Flexibility is key in the game.

Nah heavies are pretty much still OP if you don't suck at turning. Honestly this game should be called Rosalina Kart 8.
