So as we seem to have a load of Blue Shell avoidance experts here and as they are easy to dodge and perfectly fine,how do I get out of this situation, as it happened three times tonight.
Third lap, nearly finished, Blue Shell appears. I'm not close enough to make it across the line before getting hit, but I'm also not close enough to the pack of racers to back up and let someone else in first before the shell locks to me.
Choices to me seem to be either, go for line, take the hit. More than likely get hit by the other racers weapons as well, unless luck shines on me and they have used them all attacking each other. Even if they have, they will more than likely have passed me, by the time I stop bouncing and get back to speed.
Drop back, blue shell will still get me and I'll be in the pack of racers again and have no weapons to defend with.
Obviously as they aren't a problem and are easy to avoid, there must be a third option I've overlooked, to avoid it and keep 1st place.
You're reeeeally trying to find a way to hate the game. How does the Soup Nazi say it.. "NO HELP FOR YOU!"
