Yeah, you race 8 matches against CPUs and your points get totaled up against other members point totals.Kreegs wrote:So will there be computer players to supplement the users then?
Yeah. To do what you're suggesting, we would need to organize a specific time and then have everyone join a friend game. That's not what the game refers to as a "tournament".Kreegs wrote:Got it. So we could have this tournament, and then maybe try to organize another where we are all playing live at a more specific time? I am not sure about the turn out though.
So we're racing CPU okay makes sense the reddit tournament didnt have CPU.Kong Wen wrote:MK8 tournaments aren't games you generally play together. They're different from the online versus matches like the ones we were playing last night. Each person can log in any time they want while the tournament is open and get their 8 races in and the game keeps track of their points.Slurmee wrote:Umm the tournaments kinda need to be a lot shorter in time as tournaments with only a handful of people suck + you don't get as many points.
Aka if there's only 3 racers 1st gets 4 points 2nd gets 2 and 3rd gets 1. So after 8 racers the most point you can get is 32.
Where as if there's 10-12~ racer 1st gets 15 points and 6th-8th ish get 4 points.
So If I raced when there were 12 racers and came 5th everytime I'd scorer better then a person who raced in a group with 3 racers or even 4 and came 1st everytime.
So I think we should have more of a set time to play for the tournament otherwise it'll just be weird.
There will always be 12 racers in each race.
I looked at the standings about an hour before the end and we were the only ones there.MerlinDrazziw wrote:If noone else raced, I guess so
Slurmee and I entered the tournament last saturday and completed the 8 race limit. As we couldn't race on our own (with only CPU), the limit seems to be 2 human participants on different systems. Anyone who wants to join the tournament, needs to find at least a second player to join them.
It takes about 30 minutes to complete 8 races with 2 players...
