Mario Kart 8 (Wii U) - Official Topic

Is it just my rotten luck or are 200cc lobbies really empty for you guys as well?

Me, Az and Rudy got into some 200cc races earlier. But it seemed to vary, like some races were 150cc, as well. So I'm not sure how all that works. :/

I'm using the Custom option to only join 200cc rooms, no luck so far. At most I had four human racers.

Ah! We just did global/regoinal races and it seemed to throw 200cc races in quite often.

To be honest, I forgot that feature even existed. x)

Well, I know I'm not even going near 200cc unless it's against human players. You need to be really good and lucky to get Gold trophies on most 200cc cups, let alone 3-Star them. The AI is total BS as usual, but it's so much more of a problem when you have to focus far more on actually driving on 200cc. Maybe that'll come with practise, but I see no way how one could possibly deal with all the shit coming from the AI while not driving off the track yourself. The AI, though, they don't care if they crash and burn as long as they screwed you up.

I just 3-starred the Mushroom Cup on 200cc...but only really because it is the Mushroom Cup.

Brilliant for the time guys . Will be there later then.

Yeah I think most the races we had earlier were 200cc, that cheese land one was definitely 200cc, I could tell by the amount of braking I had to do round some bends.

Recording of last night sess guys :

Just finished 150cc grand prix getting mostly gold but haven't unlocked mirror or 200cc grand prixs? What giveS? Do I need a good trophy on every cup?

Am Starting to get better on 200cc through vs mode though some tracks are just madness with it.

You need a gold trophy on all 150cc cups.

I didn't even think that 200cc would need to be unlocked by those who had yet to get gold everywhere. I expect that DLC cups are excluded from that requirement.
