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

And ? That's not OP. Don't forget they are supposed to touch the opponent.

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

With how easy Triple items are to get in this game, this isn't overpowered at all, there is an easy counter. I agree that if you have an item out then it should block the red shell but that's a different story

Yes, and in MK8, you need to block them. They still follow the course though.

For some reason, item box doesn't work? Maybe it was a green shell angled the right way...

I should also complain about the blue shells. Like in MK7, they don't focus on #1, but who was #1 when released. This is annoying when #2 passes you and you still get hit. At least MK8 doesn't have this... well I only play MK8DX

No, FIBs don't protect you at all

You know... Maybe if you threw an item directly at it, maybe you could counter it and stop it from getting to you.

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.

You know, red shells have different behaviors in other Mario kart games. For example, In Mario kart super circuit, if you place a red shell behind you, it stays there until another racer pass by, once a racer passes by, the red shell targets the person who passed it.

Oh yes, what a pain I get when I get 4th just after the blue went on me...

Yes, in MK8, just let #2 pass you while the blue shell is coming. Tried this in 7 and PC, so annoying. At least in PC I dodged one in Waro Stadium by going fast on a ramp. I think mushrooms can block them like in MK8.

? What do you mean? Just hold an item behind you... Unless we aren't talking about Red Shells anymore.

If there was an option to change red shell behaviors, this game would be more interesting.
