FAST Racing Neo will not have private lobbies.

The fuss isn't over nothing yes you can play online and join friends but there are no private matches. Meaning there are no friend only games.
 
I don't get it. People jump on Nintendo hard as soon online is mentioned. Holy shit.

Hum? I was actually trying to think about what they were doing with it, but since I was actually misreading the headline it didn't make much sense. I had read it as not having private lobbies in general, which sort of made sense in that they'd want to keep the (probably) small-ish population as non-fragmented as possible. Of course, after carefully re-reading the information, I realized that that was likely not that case and deleted my statement. :D

You should full well know I have no irrational hate for Nintendo, lol.
 
Man so bummed this got cancelled, if only there had been more of a demand for multiplayer. Enjoy your AAA garbage, bakas.

Read again the image that doesn't show in your OP. You can have friends only games, you just can't filter out which friends can join you friends only game. Everybody who's friend with you on Miiverse/Wii U will be able to join a friends only game created by you.
 
The OP just doesn't want to talk about the shadowy cabal of ne'er-do-wells on his friends list, waiting with bated breath for him to start a private FAST Racing NEO lobby so they can swoop in and fill it up and prevent him and his bro from playing together.

Have you no heart, Shin'en?

Even after the trainwreck of page 1, the OP still posted this. WOW.

All that means is that you can't invite specific friends. Once a room is created anyone on your friend's list can join your game.
 
EDIT: There are no lobbies where you can invite whatever friend you want and play with just your friends. The launch release will be just like Splatoon if your friend is in a lobby you can join them but that is it you can not send friends invite to play with them. You can play with them of course but you can not play with them privately.

The image you've quoted absolutely does not say this. Do you have another source for this part?
 
Well take it as a RUMOR but no comment from Shin'en Multimedia so far. The feature itself isn't a game changer and private lobbies could be added in the future but from the review release it isn't in there.
 
No shadows and now no online? Wtf this game is a dumpster fire. I'll still buy it though but I doubt it'll get much playtime. Hope they patch in a playable game.

Please tell me this is a joke post. I mean, you posted the OP, therefore you can't even complain about a broken image link, which was the excuse for some others... So this HAS to be a joke.

If not, wow. I award you no points, and my God have mercy on your soul.

Do you have a SOURCE for this other part of speculation? Because as was noted, the image you quoted in the OP does NOT say what you're asserting.

The image works for me I did not know some people couldn't see it.

Do you have a review copy of this game?

Or did someone with a review copy explicitly tell you there are no private lobbies?

Or are you pulling this deftly from your sphincter?

Where are you getting your info. The only thing you can't do is invite specific friends.

You can create a room and anyone on your friend's list can join your room whether you want them or not.
 
This is what happens when you go too fast.

I truly believe Shinen used the worst fonts of all time in this game to make the actual godly-looking game look even godlier in comparison. Those sneaky fucking Germans.
 

That video didn't show friends room.

+SυανeVıłłαıи™ You can play with friends, yes, but anyone on your friends list can join. There's no way to invite only certain friends.

So that means you can create a room but you can't invite specific friends, anyone on your friend's list can join you game like in Smash.

Being pedantic, it actually doesn't seem to explicitly confirm friends rooms. It does imply it though.

And as established, it DEFINITELY doesn't rule out friends rooms.
 
So FAST Racing NEO will have no online, runs at only 10 fps, only 1 vehicle that only moves backwards and to the right, with no controller support? And no shadows.
 
Absolutely nothing... I made a mistake in OP and then some users started attacking other users for it instead of just simply correcting them and then it went on from there but not really worth it.

There were corrections all over the first and second page yet you came in on the second page stating more wrong facts and then adding more misinformation in your OP. Not sure what you expected.
