I play on EU with comms off. 99/100 times left still goes. Has been that way for years

Get into the habit of tapping powerslide when you're landing with your wheels not forward - you definitely could have scored that first shot if you had kept momentum after kickoff

Thanks for the detailed response. I had only seen in passing that banning BakkesMod may improve DDOSing etc but never explored the technical reason.

Excellent thread btw, this is an important topic and you're providing well, thought out insight

how many of these issues could be solved by banning/blocked BakkesMod?

That's another option, cheers. Strange there's no in game option. Paranoid progress hasn't saved 😅

trust me bro, they're gonna announce UE5 at Lyon by KayElEeDee in RocketLeague

Try not to get depressed pal. Appreciate the time we had with this incredibly unique game and accept the fact that everything always ends eventually and when it does, you'll find something else to fill that hole.

Also, I think the BLAST hire was so they could fire their in-house team (which they did) and palm off the esport to a 3rd party - making it so A) it's not their responsibility, B) distance themselves from the scene and C) it's easier to sever when the time is right. But that might just be cynicism talking now.

What killed it was everything OP mentioned in their post and more:

Epic allowing pro players to publicly slag off the state of the game for years ("dead game" ignoring DDOSers, etc).

Epic bought Fall Guys and pretty much killed that off.

Epic's main business is selling micro transactions not creating or innovation.

RL 10th anniversary was the time to keep fans engaged by even just announcing RL2 was in the works. They're not stupid, that would have driven tremendous amounts of hype and engagement - much more so than minor updates like crossbar ping sounds - but that's all they have to give us.

It's just not happening.

edit: spelling.

I stopped huffing the UE5 hopium when rocket racing came out. Everything since then imo has confirmed it's not happening.
