Mario Kart World's Online Challenges and Recent Updates

Mario Kart World features an interconnected open world with tracks that can be played as traditional lap courses or connected circuits. Offline, players can select specific modes like Time Trial or VS to race on closed circuits, while online, track selection depends on voting and settings that can be unpredictable, especially after recent updates. For consistent lap racing, choosing unconnected tracks or using specific settings is recommended, but the process can be confusing and may require luck. Future updates may improve track selection clarity.

Mario Kart 8 Update 3.0 Eliminates Decade-Long 'Bagging' Controversy

Nintendo has removed the controversial "bagging" strategy from Mario Kart 8 Deluxe in the game's Update 3.0.0. Bagging involved deliberately starting slow in a race to pick up an overpowered item and then using it to guarantee victory. This strategy has been a prominent but controversial part of online racing since the game's launch in 2014. The update now prevents players from acquiring strong items by stopping or driving in reverse, or taking an item box in the same location multiple times during a race. The removal of bagging has sparked debate among players, with some considering it a viable strategy and others finding it boring and against the racing concept.
