F-Zero 99 1.1 - 37 KOs in Queen League

[@Groxley]

Bumpers HATE him! One weird trick to max your energy bar!

[@not_riley]

hahaha!

[@Pichu-82]

Today I learned the energy bar maximum extension is with 7 KOs.

Wild Goose players: "WRITE THAT DOWN!"

[@shpaghettishpaghetti6219]

He seemed to use the Golden Fox’s high acceleration to attack from behind and to regain speed after attacking from the front.

[@dorbenyamin-bar8660]

Fun fact: A fully maxed energy bar filled to the brim is enough to boost for an entire lap on white land 2 with wild goose. (I tried it once)

[@Dummigame]

too bad the boost bar stops extending so early

[@AmyTheBrawler]

That bumper sealed the others fate, they've awakened the genocidal Golden Fox. We see a young Grey Bumper, doing the Bumper duty, as it tries to impede a Golden Fox which wasn't like an ordinary Golden Fox. Grey Bumper: "Yup, time to ruin a racer's career." Golden Fox: [Something snaps in the pilot of this Golden Fox, every bumper is now on the kill list. No survivors.] Sometime later in Port Town. Grey Bumper 2: "Oh god, is that genocidal Fox around?!" Grey Bumper 3: "Oh shit, abort mission, ABORT MISS-" (Gets blown up) Grey Bumper 2: (Sighs) "F*ck..." (Suffers the same fate) Moral of the story, don't trigger a Golden Fox into Wild Goose-mode. I didn't think that was possible.

My god your energy bar. It's so huge.. and purple... and veiny.

bow chika bow wow

[@FzeroVaporeon]

You should do this but only until the boost bar is maxed and then use your full potential

[@not_riley]

Already did it. It's a fun way to get really fast track times on the rest of the gp courses.

[@Groxley]

Just use the boost button as the accelerator

[@TrueYellowDart]

Surprisingly entertaining. By the end it looked like the grey bumpers had learned and we’re trying to avoid /you/.

I main Wild Goose mostly to not get bashed around when I inevitably find myself in the middle-rank scrum.

As a Wild Goose main, I would never underestimate a good golden fox player😅

This is a very interesting way to play the game, I like it

[@tomc1384]

Today I learned the energy bar can be extended from Blue to Jazzberry Jam.

[@JonathanJollimore-w9v]

Told you this is a good idea Nintendo

[@WhiteWeaseI]

With a maxed energy meter - 4 boosts in - and they are where the other vehicles _start_ at. Imagine your opponents seeing your god-like energy meter and that you are going for bumper kills. It's like placing well in a sports competition only to reveal you were playing for funsies with your non-dominant hand.

[@gekinatracksuit9710]

fox + goose playstyle = a fucking juggernaut

[@Ray_2112]

I need to play some GPs like that to practice killing those bumpers...I rarely get more than 2-3 during a GP, yet the difference is always notable, especially with the Goose. (my main) With the limit being 7, it shouldn't be too difficult with a little practice to get those in the early races. 37 is quite the acchievement though lol, that was a fun video. ;)

[@kennycarter5682]

its so nice to FINALLY see a maxed out energy bar, your the only one on yt im aware of to have a maxed out bar that is full on video.. thank you. completly full maxed out energy bar at 5:15, to all those who were as curious as me at how a maxed out full energy bar would look, this will save you time

[@not_riley]

i get a full bar by the end of the third lap of mute city, in this other video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpfJmp-aaph9rrMsi=npPiin-lDD--0Ktl

[@NinjaHamsters101]

This is such a great video upload! I always appreciate a record holding/breaking video, even if it is an nuanced task within a given game. I can not really imagine anyone being able to break that record amount of KOs, but it would be exciting to see if someone actually does break that record. Also, this was very entertaining to watch overall. Very impressive indeed!

[@FuzzyDancingBear]

Yes

[@PoweredUpMike]

This is the video I've been looking for! I've always wanted to see how far up the boost bar goes.

[@blooddemon3379]

This is the first time ive seen anyone intentionally throw multiple league races for the sake of getting as many kills as possible. I dislike it but it also intrigues me as to what if you got kills in the first race to get max boost bar. Then swiped first in every other race.

[@not_riley]

I did that a few times, but getting 7 kos in 1 race puts you substantially behind on points. Best i could manage was a third place gp, with around 20th on mute city and 4 firsts. It's also very dependent on who's in your race.

[@Thornbloom]

@@not_riley I've resigned myself to the fact that if I see any names in katakana that I'm not taking first, ever.

[@Royameadow]

It's moments such as this that leave me remaining optimistic for when F~Zero 099 ultimately gets its Local Play/Offline update, we will probably witness mods that allow for the Health Bar to witness Infinite Extension with every KO above 07 and it would truly present which racers are the dominant forces on the course; this entry is one where I feel its KO Badge Equivalent is not as emphasized because of the fact that you do not get much of any benefit for continuing to rack up a whole bunch throughout the Grand Prix, the other three titles in this series delivered extra barriers of protection the further that the battle went on but F~Zero 099's handling makes it feel a little weak that we honestly wish that there could be more done. Below are some examples that I hope the modding base could use, once this time comes: ~ Health: Every KO beyond 07 continues to deliver extra health, with a Punishment effect being that you don't gain nearly as much between 08 and 098 to assure that the bar doesn't exceed the boundaries of the Heads~up Display. ~ Speed: Every KO gradually increases the ability to attain and retain Maximum Speed, much to the point where Boost Power will probably not become nearly as necessary after 025. This will have no Punishment, and ultimately allow for racers to reach 0999 Kilometers per Hour. ~ Boost Power, Skyway Meter, and Spin Attack: Every KO gradually decreases the amount of health needed for Boost Power, as well as increases the speed of filling up the Skyway and Spin Attack Meter; after 020, Punishment enters to reduce how much this is improved upon up to 098, effectively making use of them feel instant or virtually limitless. ~ Attack Power and Durability: Every KO from 08 to 098 improves the car's ability to damage opponents and resist all forms of damage; as with the Speed subsection, this will not have any Punishment, eventually making the player's car able to One Shot any opponent or Gray Snail and take virtually no damage from a Red Snail by the time their KO count reaches 050 to 098.

hey it's impressive you didn't get ranked out in white land I the rank outs always give me anxiety

[@may-ree-oh64]

So this is what you're doing at the beginning of pris and win by a landslide of time towards the end

[@not_riley]

yes. But when i do that, it’s just to try and get the best possible time on the last 3-4 tracks. Too hard to win a GP when you’re 50th place on the first track (because i farm 7 KOs).

[@may-ree-oh64]

@not_riley I like the strat man, how many kos to max out your health?

[@zyxyuv1650]

That was nice and all but how about getting the WR for most PKOs...that's a much harder challenge

[@not_riley]

Because that requires a ton of luck. If i did a video on that, you wouldn't see many kos throughout the GP. A bumper takes 5 hits to kill, a human player takes a lot more effort. Even if you lurk in the back of a gp and hunt players that are damaged, most of those are bot players noawadays, so KO-ing them isn't the same as KO-ing a human. I've had 3 human kos on mc3 before but it was pure luck.

[@Blundabus1337]

I dont understand, is there a point in killing the npcs? beyond maxing out boost?

[@not_riley]

For the same reason people compete for best times: it's fun to see how many you can get and compete with friends. Also, the GP tracks your highest ko count. Some other users have already gotten 40, by now.

That's really boring because it's not so much skill as it is luck. I've had 5-6 humans kos in a gp before. I've had 3 human ko's on mute city once, but other than that, it's just regular racing.

[@Tanookicatoon]

Every time I watch a Golden Fox video, it's always someone with obvious speed hacks making it possible for them to outrun the FireStingray in a drag race at top speed. lol Get out of here with your hacks dude. You're not KOing anyone with the car that has the weakest armor rating in the game.
