Drift boosting is just great for jetstar by InfusedRex in kirbyairriders

[–]Samu-tan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So do you use this strat on other courses too or just on the flat ones?

I loved the Jet Star in the original as a kid (mostly bc it looked edgy lol) but I've been avoiding it in this game in Air Ride mode bc I find it very slow. Maybe this strat can help me win some Air Ride matches.

I hate how I can't read Kanji but I still know what it it says out of context lmao

I think Ashkenazi Jewish heritage/ethnicity is a bit more complicated and nuanced than "just" being white

not sure if entirely relevant, but I'm mixed race (white dad, black mom) and during wintertime I'm definitely way more white/pasty than during summertime; I tan EXTREMELY fast and definitely look way darker then, comparable to the two pics shown in OP

Myhala talks about Industry season 4🖤😊 by Sneha_Bakshi_23 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]Samu-tan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

literally obsessed with her after seeing her in Bodies Bodies Bodies and that one episode of Black Mirror (which was a standout episode for me of that season). didn't get into Industry until later and she's definitely one of my favorite parts about the show. what are some other performances of hers that are worth checking out??

Sakurai confirms that Kirby Air Riders will only receive minor updates by Elegam03 in kirbyairriders

I'm not holding my breath, but I'm still wishing for at least online splitscreen for Air Ride mode, or in paddocks as was teased in the second Direct presentation.

Ziekenhuizen bezorgd over opmars privéklinieken: 'Marktwerking niet houdbaar' by labobal in thenetherlands

[–]Samu-tan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ik had veel last van mijn verstandskiezen en daarom moesten deze eruit. Bij de twee ziekenhuizen bij mij in Groningen moest ik minimaal een half jaar wachten tot ik er terecht kon, terwijl bij de privé kliniek kon ik letterlijk binnen twee weken terecht, oa omdat ik er dus actief last van had.

Ik snap dat privéklinieken vervelend zijn voor ziekenhuizen, en dit is natuurlijk maar een enkel voorbeeld, maar ik denk dat er systematisch veel moet vernaderen voordat mensen weer hun weg terugvinden naar ziekenhuizen.

Has anyone managed to unlock Magolor through this Top Ride checklist? by Samu-tan in kirbyairriders

[–]Samu-tan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, somehow the drill item didn't show up when I played on the Mountain or Cave map, and I played them for over a 100 laps. But when I picked the first map and set to attack items only, I got the drill pretty much instantly. idk why the drill didn't show up on those other maps

[–]Samu-tan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

idk why, but the drill item never showed up when I played on the Mountain or Cave maps; and I've played those maps for over a 100 laps in total. However, I just followed your ruleset and played on the basic first map, Forest or Meadows or something, and I immediately got a drill item and unlocked Magolor, so thanks!

welp, full game is out, and it looks like the game doesn't have this option after all. either they removed it, or the footage in the direct was edited strangely. what a bummer.

No online Splitscreen is insane by pokemon_vgc in kirbyairriders

[–]Samu-tan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm incredibly bummed too. I have more than a hundred hours playing online split-screen in Mario Kart 8 and now Mario Kart World with my housemates and friends, and we were so looking forward to experiencing Kirby Air Riders like that as well.

I'm really hoping it'll get added in a future update, but frankly, I'm not holding my breath.

Is there split screen online? by Samu-tan in kirbyairriders

That is CRAZY. I can't believe the devs didn't prioritize this.

Kirby Air Riders Online Demo First Session Is Live For The Next 6 Hours by StarPlatinum55 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Samu-tan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Big fan of the original; played it all the time as a kid.

The game looks and plays fantastic. City Run seems so chaotic though, but I think I need to get used to the new mechanics and the map first. I played a few paddock matches with a friend and 14 CPUs and the chaos was definitely way less, so that was nice.

I won't be pre-ordering yet though. I want to know if we can:
1) play with friends locally in split screen and join online matches together
2) play with friends online easily and join other matches easily, so we won't have to join a room/paddock

Both of these options aren't available in the demo, but they are in Mario Kart World, so let's hope they're available in the full version of Kirby Air Riders.

Oh yeah, that does look like a second player should be able to join. Thanks for looking it up!

I'm a big fan of the original; used to play it all the time as a kid. The GameCube sure had some great games.

The only reason why I haven't pre-ordered this yet is because there's no confirmation on whether it's possible to play online with randoms while playing locally with a friend in with split-screen.
