The game is neat, but I'm not sure it was worth sacrificing 2+ years of development that could have been implemented into Rocket League. Glad to see they're shifting their focus back, and hopefully this is where things start to get better. I've sent over my suggestions to certain people within the dev team. Not that my word means much, but I definitely have a LONG list of ideas!

@@D3aThKulthave you seen the racing videos leth has done. Looks a million times more fun than this garbage. This doesn’t have the feel of rocket league at all.

Epic Fail

@Pandize 5 месяцев назад

Not cope, but this genuinely could of been pretty good. If you made the game how rocket league was made. You’re fully in control of the car. No button is gonna put that ball in the net without you BEING the car. If they thought full control. Imagine air roll, imagine spinning out, imagine wave dashing, hell even forward flips and using the ceiling for a reset on flips. So much could of made this insane. This game is just wow map design matched with Walmart split/second drift boosting and asphalt flips. Epic L is an understatement. They missed what made people enjoy rocket league and trivialized/ruined the things they didn’t miss.

@T3n50r 5 месяцев назад

Not to mention, the boost/drifting mechanic is already done by Crash Team Racing so there's nothing new they bring to the table in terms of racing games either. They should have added things like jump and wave dash to knock people out with the sacrifice of speed etc., something new with a skill curve.

@lampisfun1139 5 месяцев назад

Idk why they decided to ignore nearly all rocket league mechanics in their rocket league theme racing mode. All it takes to change this is change air boosting from the bottom of the car to the back of the car, and make it more physics based and not so “on the rails” type of movement

@T3n50r 5 месяцев назад

The why is easy to understand. $$$, Rocket League as a brand sells by itself and I don't see much love actually put into this

@iRaps1 5 месяцев назад

@@T3n50r I think it's easy to understand, but for completely different reasons. People love arcade racers they can play with their friends/just pick up and play a bit. Rocket League is for tryhards, this is meant for a completely different playerbase. It just has the Rocket League name to give it a boost off the ground, it's marketing. But this was never meant to be a Rocket League mechanics simulator for a racing game. It needs to be accessible to casual gamers

@T3n50r 5 месяцев назад

@@iRaps1 Sure, and I think that is why this will be a flop. Interest for a little while and then it'll die down. Rocket League helps to create some sort of interest but mainly due to its reputation of being easy to pick up but hard to master. Side Swipe was done perfectly as they targeted a market that hasn't been taken the Western world with storm as much, and they had a concept that translated well. Also no competitors. For gamers and what Rocket League is known for is difficulty and reward bringing something new to the table. This game doesn't do any of that. They'll get their niche community but that's about it. At least that's how I look upon it now. I may be wrong, but I don't see this game still being alive in a year, or bringing as much money in as investors and EG would have hoped for.

@pkjay3941 Definitely not "almost all". They may tell you that you are leaving the track, to return before a certain timer, but you can move in any direction and any angle on a LOT of games, any that are more realistic. BeamNG, Crew 2, Forza Horizon, Dirt 4. The good racing games do not baby you. The only ones that have you locked to the track this are kid-friendly games like Mario Kart and complete arcade-style ones.

I think that the problem is in the fact that in Rocket League you can occupy any point in a 3D space at any angle facing any direction, and it seems like you are more “on rails” in this game. Which makes it feel like it’s not rocket league. I agree that the ranked mode should give you more freedom to occupy the 3D space while still progressing thru the track (I.e. not magnetizing you to the track, controlling your air roll totally). But all that comes with a cost to accessibility

Feels like epic saw the success of trackmania and used the car game which they own to make a version of it inside fortnite so that they could make something new but nothing about it feels like it would be fun for a long time.

And the fact that the developers for rl were working on this for the past 2 yrs coz epic pulled them towards it really pisses me off.

Love how Mario kart 64 is a more compelling game to play (right now). The only thing rl about it is the car(s) and the word rocket. The boosting isn't similiar, flipping isn't similiar, jumping isn't similiar. It reminds me of the newer Mario karts, with almost every feature removed, add arcade drift to boost, add direction plus cling button to switch which surface you are magnetized to. I was incredibly disappointed with how bad this is. It will probably be dead in days.

@lincoln4408 5 месяцев назад

I think what leth was talking about when he said it was “rigid” was that the mechanics are a lot more controlled or confined and user friendly, whereas rocket league has a lot more inputs that can be used simultaneously, meaning many mechanics of rocket league have been found that weren’t designed to be in the game. Think flip resets, wall dashes etc. There’s no psyonix tutorials on these mechanics. That’s why rocket league is so much fun- it’s the uniqueness of the game and the diversity. Rocket racing just feels like a select number of mechanics all designed by psyonix for the benefit of new players.

Something I’ve noticed about the air dodge, you do have to sweetspot the landing, even though it does magnetize a little bit, you either have to initiate the air dodge extremely close to wherever you’re landing or from a set distance for a clean landing. Otherwise there’s a chance you will hit the ground before the car fully rolls and you’ll lose a bit of speed from a sloppier landing.

Considering this game put rocket league on the backburner, the final product is no where near the improvements that could’ve been implemented into rocket league. Im sure there is a better racing game on the app store or google play that didn’t have to ruin one of the games I love the most, rocket league. Truly a sad time to be a gamer.

@Bleacher22 5 месяцев назад

Game looks fun, i just wished there would be more interaction with other players like activating some traps or more bumping involved like in RL knock-out mode.

@Bleacher22 5 месяцев назад

@@dewaynegames766 I'm not interested in other racing games, i'm Rocket league fan so i wished it had some more identity of RL other than dumbed down aerial and dodge mechanics which already feel distinct from original game. These supposed to be battle cars so i want the feel that i'm battling against opponents not just racing.

The seems to play like Asphalt 8 or 9 whatever one it is now, especially because of the sound and the loading screen and the drifting giving you boost (I just now saw Leth saying it feels like asphalt)

@weelewism8442 5 месяцев назад

If you could do in RL what you could do in this, it would probably be obselite when trying to get agead of other players, you stil can use air rolls to your advamtage and you can also go on harder shortcuts that require air rolling and flying in order to keep your drift or boosted momentum which puts you ahead of everyone which is super satisfying

@virtualbunksie5117 5 месяцев назад

Honestly, as a rocket league player and a lifelong racer ever since snes days. I always imagined and dreamt of what could be rocket league racing. I guess I thought it would maybe be like rocket voltaic stunt racing in GTAV with maybe some dynamic map changes and so on. I dont know what the hell this is but it's trash, imma still grind a little because I am a huuuge racing fan. I've already found a few skips and can't wait to go for it for a little while but I do really have to drill it in that this is not what I expected or hoped for.

I was honestly expecting Speed flippers to be the best at this gamemode but they just made it into a dumbed down mario cart with no power ups. Was looking for more of a parkour type racing mode with identical rocket league mechanics. Should be fun for a few weeks

@B1ackjackx 5 месяцев назад

If this is UE5 rl that is amazing it looks so good! Now it seems like they could have a good base for moving the game to ue5 in the future, ik the physics and everything will be difficult to copy. I do wonder if epic will completely remove the steam version if they make the move, that would suck. Also hopefully this mode starts to have a skill gap (recoveries, air roll, aerials stuff, speedflips) like that could make it more fun for higher ranked players. Similar to dacia springs or hornets nest type of things could make this game really fun n

@DaDrummerD 5 месяцев назад

I''m surprised they didn't put power ups into it. I expected a bit more of a Mario Kart feel. Would make it more unique to non Nintendo racing games if they had items such as the boot and boomer power ups for demos as well as got creative to make some more.

@Nexus-edits 5 месяцев назад

Us rl players want mechs to transfer over, but that doesnt appeal to the majority of racing players. Speed flips, wave dashes, tornado rolls, etc probably arent added because it would take so long to figure out when theres no free play.

@Zuioex 5 месяцев назад

I wish it had been more like super impossible road - Non linear map courses with full rocket league controls! Rocket Racing is one of the best mid tier arcade racers I’ve played - better than the asphalt series already. But no where close to even Mario kart let alone Rocket League. trying drifting around a corner in Mario kart 8 and you’ll instantly see how limited the mechanical ceiling is even in the driving aspect of rocket racing. Maybe it can get better but it feels like this is suppose to be an arcade racer game not a game made for real rocket league fans.

@DaBomb99x 5 месяцев назад

ive commented on this video already but I played the knockout mode on RL today and I just think that epic doesn't see the vision we all do for rocket league, big shame. Props to leth and all the map creators that keep the community afloat but I think this is the end of the road for me

@ROYteous 5 месяцев назад

I hate that it is in Fortnite. Then they force you to have a random character until you buy a skin. So even though I have hundreds of hours in RL, I get to feel like a noob, since I am in fortnite where I have no skins and can't even earn a free one. At least in RL there are free cars you can choose without being forced to buy one. As far as the game goes. So far, it doesn't seem like a game many people will care about for very long. Certainly not worth losing trading for and two years of developement in RL.
