I haven't read the rest of the posts, but all I have to say is this: Welcome to Mario Kart. If you don't like the red shells, turn them off. There's a custom item option now. (Unless you only play grand prix mode. in that case, don't bother.)

[quote=----DNA_Lely----]And ? That's not OP. Don't forget they are supposed to touch the opponent.

Those new sorts of mechanics just don't work well with a SMK-inspired 2.5D game.

In the regular Mk games they don't dodge over obstacles nor do they jump over them.


That's still not OP.
For me red shells are good now.
Because if we don't have this, red shells sucks

but then nobody can be strategic. what's the point of sending an item to someone if they can't dodge it? if the player is skilled enough, they should be able to have a chance to dodge it, like the spiny/blue-shell escape method with drifting in MKDS. this IS op. learn your definitions

Bruh, to avoid red shells, hold an item behind you. To avoid a blue shell, use a boost such as mushroom or the boosts on the ground.

you can still use shells and bananas to dodge red shells and honestly that works fine, being able to dodge red shells in other ways makes it WAY too weak and the way that it is right now is good.

The red shells are OP now, it can:
Avoid pits
Jump over walls and pits
Can easily dodge items
it can move faster
and can use cannons and teleporters

This is pretty controversial because red shells can definitely be a pain in the kiester if you're doing really well in the race but if you think about it, everything is flat in this game so it would make sense that they would dodge things, also they jump over stuff because of ramps and yes I know green shells don't but it still wouldn't matter since green shells just hit whatever without being destroyed after hitting a wall. I've used a few red shells in online races and they just run straight into a wall and disappear so they aren't that OP.


This has nothing to do with anything but, 2d_Official, you completed my challenge before I added the rewards. You might want to check it out, just saying.

red Shells in Mario Kart is really weird but I will accept it besides it's not really op but I know it's going to in Mario Kart 9 red shells  because I know a fact that if you hit a red shells at a wall it will not work but if you hit a player

my only real complaint with them is that they sometimes don't show on screen when they hit you leading to somewhat puzzling and confusing hits, other then that I think they're pretty good
