Why does he hop so much? Is there some technique I am unaware of?

u/AweInspiringPickle Aug 22 '17
From what I remember from another Mario kart thread, it's supposed to increase the length of the boost after they come out of a drift.

More specifically, your boost speed lasts longer the less your wheels touch the ground.

That was fixed in the Switch version.

Good because that's fucking stupid. I hate dumb shit like this when I'm trying to play beer-i-o cart with my friends. It's like, "we get it, you play this kids game way too much. Now sit down and chug a beer and shut up"

In MK8, it was called Fire Hopping. It allowed you to retain speed from a drift boost for longer. They removed this exploit in the Switch version (Deluxe).

u/motsanciens Aug 23 '17
Oh, they removed it? Thank God. I could never watch MK8 clips and enjoy them because they were doing that shit.

Or for a closer example, snaking in MKDS, which let you hit speeds like this despite only having 150cc.

The first commenter is referring to bunnyhopping (or bhopping) a technique in many older video games where jumping can be used to preserve momentum over longer distances than the game originally intended
The second commenter is quoting a video from an (ex)-Counter Strike player named Phoon, where he uses this to extreme lengths to completely dominate his opponents (and then upload their complaints/cheating accusations)
The video gets posted every other r/globaloffensive thread because its so impressive

A reference to this video by phoon, a famous counter strike montage of "bunny hopping" (aka bhopping). bhopping is incredibly hard to perform as consistently as phoon does in the video, which leads many of his opponents to think he's using scripts to cheat and perform it. bhopping provides a huge advantage in counter strike games due to speed at which you move while bhopping, as you can see in the video.

u/LevMcK2015 Aug 23 '17
Bhopping is something that people do in counter strike to move faster than the fastest walking speed by jumping at just the right time over and over to gain momentum. The second comment may be referring to phoon, who is one of the best bhoppers, but I'm not sure.

If this is Mario kart 8 not deluxe version when you do a fully charged drift you do something called fire-hopping, hence all the hopping I think it was removed this in the deluxe version for a 3 tier boost system.

u/_Da_Vinci Aug 23 '17
When you hop and move the direction back and forth it builds up what basically equates to always having a mushroom boost.

Where does it loop?

For future reference, you can open the gif itself and right click on it and click "Show Controls" to see the media bar thing and go to the end, or you can simply look at where the video starts and remember that.

u/Cassius40k Aug 23 '17
A good argument for shifting the loop so the cut isn't at the start of the video.

The coin and lap counters have some weird glitches at 0:09 and 0:14. What's going on there?

These are annoying. Sure he did an amazing lap but not a full race.
Edit: Ok thanks for the downvotes but really what is Mario cart without the npc's or items to make a challenge? Sure this person spent time to perfect the map but let's play with the hardest npc's and see the same time trial on the same map. Perfect lap is only perfect when you take out all the challenges. That's why I find it annoying. So downvote if you want but let's see him do it with a challenge.

u/orbojunglist Aug 23 '17
If the end goal is to have the fastest time, why would you want to introduce factors that will make that take a lot longer? eventually the perfect lap will still be had... you just put a shit ton of obstacles in the way of your goal to call it a challenge.
it's also more difficult to define an outright fastest driver, as each race would develop in a different way, leaving all of that out means everyone has exactly the same conditions and is judged on exactly the same scale.

u/notsureiflying Aug 23 '17
How many laps are a race? I saw him doing 78 perfect laps in a row

u/carlsnakeston Aug 23 '17 edited Aug 23 '17
Wow 78 huh. Must be a loop or this person really wasted their life on a min course. Really put all the npc' s on and have a real race with items, Like the games meant to be played. Sorry I don't think playing with yourself with no npc' s is kinda like achieving something super easy with no challenge

u/Kesir_Kilsek Aug 23 '17
Have you ever played time trials? The whole point of them is to race the course by yourself, or against a ghost, to get the fastest time possible without anything in your way. It's an entirely different type of race than the cup races.
