OK, I've been playing online for a bit now, and have heard of the 'Time Trial' cheat, where you can do a lap then stop and wait 10mins or so, and the Time Trial will reset leaving your score as if you had done only one lap, so 32sec for a 3 lap race, impressive... If you wasn't cheating!
Nintendo have also seen this and are dealing with it by deleting 'False' records!
But now... :cursing::cursing::cursing:
I've noticed people are pairing up, using the same License/name etc or they log on as Guests, so they cant lose points. And 1 hangs back with a fairly decent weapon while the other fights for 1st place. As soon as another player (1st place or closest) passes the player thats hanging back, they release their weapon and stall you, making you lose 1st place, and probably the race.
It happened to me only yesterday. I saw 'Birdo' just waiting on the track while everyone else was zooming around in a hectic chaos! I was in 1st :thumbup: and I picked up a green shell. As I approached Birdo I slowed to get a good aim to attack, but she slammed a POW block making me lose my shell and fall off the edge, needless to say I was no longer in 1st! :cursing:
If it was a fair race and I had lost I wouldn't have minded but since it was a pair of cheaters I signed out, and teamed up with a new race. :driver:
Although I will get them one day!! :bike:
