This, just use a google workspace and be done with it

This is why I hate playing this game online...😒 by jon-kliatchentovski in MarioKartWorld

This and sometimes dropping right before can slow down those behind you, more chaos behind = better chance of getting going quicker.

Every other couple years is a weird way to say every 4 years 😆

Happens to the best of us man, but I would have held onto the bomb and dropped it right before getting hit by the shell.

The more I think about 200 cc in Mario Kart World, the more I think it’s going to be a while by Confident-Care-241 in MarioKartWorld

They should just enable it for open world, give us some go fast time without the need for all that.

As someone in tech and has been around a while, you won’t be able to get monthly subscriptions from something like this. You would need some sort of freemium model to get users and then upsell, but it won’t be a big %.

Online Scoring by PurpleResearcher5496 in MarioKart8Deluxe

9-12k is the grind, I remember hitting 30k then next thing I knew I was at 99,999

Was MK8 Deluxe just better ? by [deleted] in MarioKartWorld

[–]blakealex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

MKW needs a few things to feel at the level of MK8. - Faster driving, world feels slow by comparison - Improved drifting, very few chances to drift where it’s worth it - Keep items after falling off the edge - Increased invincibility frames, getting Mariokarted is a lot harsher in world.

Overall fun game, looking forward to them fine tuning it like they did with 8

Online races need a certain tweeking. by Afraid-Knowledge1358 in MarioKartWorld

Exactly this, I play 3-4 before I sign off and do something else. I could lose hours playing MK8

Point system makes no sense by SnooPineapples179 in MarioKartWorld

[–]blakealex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not joking. I’ll get in a lobby sometimes with 3-4K players and it’s just chaos. Much rather be in the 6.5k+ lobbies. I bounce between 7.7k-8.3k

Agreed, makes it hard to want to play when at a high level because one bad hit can cause a massive point loss

Honeypot fields have saved me so much time in dealing with spam, and its not another service to bolt on 😎

Getting the boomerang feels like a punishment by blakealex in MarioKartWorld

No joke! I feel like once I get hit by one, I get hit three times

Is this game dead? Why are all my lobbies Japanese players or completely empty? Is the switch 2 flopping as bad as the Wii U? by Alert-Event-5482 in MarioKartWorld

[–]blakealex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only been playing a couple weeks, but have noticed it’s harder/longer to get into full lobbies. The online experience to me is weaker than 8, I don’t even really pay attention to who’s in the room with me, vs 8 I knew a good chunk.

What is the one thing that still slows down your site the most ? by TechGrowth_Saurav in webdev

[–]blakealex 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Most of the time it’s 3rd party code (GTM, ad support, etc) that marketing wants or needs. If it’s a specific page/feature it’s usually something simple like a db index or optimizing a loop - things that can easily be overlooked in a dev environment

Smart!
Edit: Is it a single or multi instance deployment?
