Yeah, I've heard the rubber banding is particularly nasty in this. Rubber banding is my biggest gripe with any racer, so if it's that nasty then I might not be as interested in this as I was. I've gone off it for that reason, seen a few videos showing it and it looks downright frustrating, Mario Maker is out on Friday, I don't need this anymore. |

| It's just ridiculously fun to play and a story-like mode is a big one for me.

| I should have said in my last game finished post, it's very much FIFA v PES. We all know PES (CTR) is the better game but people buy FIFA (Mario Kart) because you have all licenses. |

| So does that mean that CTR has an edit function so you can put actually good characters in it then? |

| Have been enjoying this game a lot and didn't play CTR back in the day. I grew up playing the Mario Kart games and have played all of them, loving a fair few of them, but have to say Nitro Fuelled gives them a run for their money.
It's a shame it doesn't hit 60fps on any console, but when it hits PC it's going to have that benefit on top of looking as gorgeous as it currently is.
And of course the loading times aren't great - probably the most annoying thing for me, especially on Switch. Compounds problems the online already has, but it can still be great fun. Recently the loading times for Botw/Mario Oddysey were improved, I think by updates which 'overclock' the Switch during load times, so was hoping this game could get the same benefit. Remains to be seen if they'll bother though.
Also, regarding the bosses, at least on medium difficulty, I don't think they're that bad. One of them took a couple of retries, and the very final one was rather tough but then got a lot easier when I found an effective strategy versus them. Basically it becomes a lot harder when you lose the lead vs them (especially the very last boss during one of its very long phases). But generally, getting the lead isn't too hard at the start of the race.
There is probably a bit of rubber banding in these boss fights but it's mainly just that the traps they drop when they're in front of you can be annoying to deal with, and when you're in front of them you can effectively keep them back with your own items. Not a big deal imo - can't say the same for hard mode which I haven't tried, but I'd imagine people are okay with just settingly for medium difficulty. If there's rubberbanding anywhere else in the game, it's very slight.
Edit: Found out they apparently will improve load times https://www.vg247.com/2019/07/15/crash-nitro-refueled-switch-boost/ |
