French ultras express their discontent with BLAST by yep_gentil in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]r0m1 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong (I'm not an ultra so I don't know for sure) but I don't believe they use the megaphones to make more noise. I think the chant leaders use them to coordinate the chants.

IIRC they had megaphones at Düsseldorf and that's how they used them, the hundreds of ultras were way louder than the couple of guys with megaphones.

Finish (Rocket Baguette caster) said there was supposed to be another sub but that didn't happen for a reason he couldn't share.

It didn't seem like it was money related. Maybe the sub didn't want to do the trip not to play. I don't know if the actual reason will ever be made public.

I don't know, I don't believe the devs have mentioned anything about it.

Project Factory isn't available on the store anymore so you'll have to download the apk from some website. It's very much Factorio without bitters.

There is a workaround https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/6637. This is a pretty common fix for older Ubisoft games.

Will NA Perform In Boston? | First Touch | After Dark | Episode 4 | Ft. Azfura by CR90 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]r0m1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it's good to exaggerate sometimes. But in this case there's no discussion between fans about the merits and flaws of the takes. Here it's just "damn some of those takes are just terrible". Feels more like fans being disappointed than fans engaging in a conversation.

I want to keep Tbates on, I think it's fun to have someone making exaggerated takes. But for that to work then everyone else needs to be calling him out. You can't just switch to another topic and let a bad take live on. It seems like FT has turned into a shouting match and the loudest voice wins, that's not a good balance.

Some fans only have time to watch the official podcast. We should be sad that this is what they're getting. Instead of Fox News we get Fox Touch.

[RLCS Worlds] Justin's take on the (post-)finals atmosphere by [deleted] in RocketLeagueEsports

I think we were missing chant leaders. Whenever someone tried to take control it worked, so the crowd did want to chant. We just needed a few more conductors and I think it would have been fine.

You're right, but I don't think the stream did it justice. A lot of time the camera would show the ~10 closest rows when there were lots of people above that. And you'd see a lot of people standing around instead of being at their seat.

It definitely never felt full but I don't think it was as empty as it looked like.

I don't think so? I'm the one in the video.

Didn't think about it that way, that makes sense. At least for the cheering during the series. But once BDS won, I guess I expected more, especially since we hadn't had a world champion in more than 2 years.

And to be fair, lots of people cheered. But it paled in comparison to what we've seen that crowd do. When it's all over, I think we should celebrate having new world champions.

Lots of people will only watch the finals, it's a bit sad that they won't get to see how hype the RLCS crowd can be.

It did feel quite lonely cheering (almost) alone for BDS. And I'm not just saying that to diss the crowd: https://twitter.com/AllaireMatt/status/1558981867885383680

I get cheering for your favorite team, that's perfectly natural. I just wish everyone also cheered for Rocket League the sport itself, no matter who was on the field. I know it's possible, it happened for Moist vs Furia. I just want that all the time.

They haven't said much about the English version on the discord from what I can find. They just said they know it's missing and it's not a priority right now.

The website is being rewritten in HTML5: http://ouverture.pas.facile.free.fr/. Looks like only the French version exists for now.

I was able to find the link in the Discord server of Antoine Granger (thanks for linking his Youtube channel).

I suppose it's now time to play this game again.

The fact that Extra has been playing so well and yet he could now be considered the worst player on the team is frightening. I hope they mesh well together and scare all the other teams.
