    Once again another game ruined by Epic.
    The company is full of greedy sods honestly, can't think of anything original and anything they see that has popularity, they take. And that's what happened when they partnered with Psyonix, that just worsened everything.

    3rd party sites take the same cut as steam
    70/30% and epic or steam don't make any
    money fron 3rd party keys, so much for supporting 12%.

    Use to be one of my favourite games now complete ruined since being sold to Epic, the items, the tournaments are garbage. The runs worse than ever have nothing to look forward to playing.

    It's a fun game, but on PC with it being removed from Steam and the new Pay2Win RocketPass it's no where near as good as it used to be.

    It's a terrible publisher that issues bans left right and center with no warnings.

    This game is bad, community is horrible, and their support team is a joke, you're treated like a pig and no one cares, if you speak up against other mishabits by players you get banned immediately, horribie community handling, happy at least that its no longer on steam, should be removed from any other platform aswell, disgusting game

    From 16th September players on Steam platform are unable to enter game unless they connect to some other niche platform. So this is dealbreaker as initially game didint required this.

    The requirement of an Epic Games account is HORRIBLE, you have to agree to a ToS they don't even give you the ability to read. The tutorial treating veterans like noobs is INSULTING.

That part isn't even so bothersome to me, what pisses me off is that single skins cost MORE than the entirety of the base game did, WTF is that??

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Since Epic’s acquisition of Psyonix, not a single positive change has been made. There’s been a consistent trend of updates solely focused on coercing players to actively engage in their microtransactions. Now that it’s gone F2P, this change has become even more damnable. They’ve now explicitly gone back on their initial promises and are preying on player data as we are being railroaded into accepting hidden terms of service, now that players are uneable to play without an Epic Games account. Epic has now fully integrated the Fortnite system into Rocket League, and it’s pathetic to see. Hold off on this game and let’s wait and see when this predatory system reveals yet another EA. Let’s hope our laws will continue to evolve to actively protect the safety and integrity of videogame players, if only to preserve what’s left of the interactive experience as an artform.… Expand

Пришли эпик геймс, а вместе с ними и лаги на серверах (живу и так далеко от Европы), все мои купленные машины теперь бесполезны, они ничего не стоят. Изменили качество и редкость предметов. Теперь многие из них тоже ничего не стоят. В игре ухудшилось коммьюнити, в рейтинговых играх теперь регулярно люди ливают прямо посреди игры, потому, что они новенькие, им без разницы на команду. Рокет лига со своим уютным коммьюнити умирает прямо у меня на глазах ото дня ко дню... Цены на валюту и предметы стали скупердорогими. Спасибо, Rocket League 2015-2020. RIP… Expand

    Rocket league in it's prime days was a 10/10 title but I had to reorganise my thoughts after Psyonix sold it to Epic.
    After this "shift" in "ownership", price and DRM you have to sit through a painfully long and insulting cutscene that they sell as a tutorial and then they notify you that you MUST HAVE an EGS account in order to play it as you would've normally done.

    You then have to accept EGS TOS, which they won't let you read in-game before agreeing, and after this you can finally play the game.
    It's not that bad you might say, but for someone who spent money and time on this game it can be quite irritating and insulting, as EGS didn't even thank the player for having supported the game when it was on Steam.
    EGS has also messed up the servers as I spent 30 minutes trying to set up a private tournament, only to get the "Could not connect to server" error.
    After all the game was pretty nice but you had to practice a lot to get the hang of it.
    It's a real shame that this game is going down the drain (imo) as it was fun to play competively and with friends.
    so for the rating: 7/10 pre Epic

    Snatched by Epic Games, now forces you to make an Epic account to play. Epic is notoriously awful with even the most basic of things, security is a big issue, and I'm not accepting being suddenly forced to make an account with this extremely scummy company in order to play a game I've owned for years.

    Epic's not getting my details. Tencent can burn in hell, and so can Tim Sweeney.

    Do you remember “Top Gear” episodes in which football matches were played using hatchbacks? The same idea is the cornerstone of Rocket League – one of those jewels that do not care for bells and whistles (though it does look great) and Kevin Spacey in the credits, instead focusing on squeezing every last drop of fun out of a simple concept.
