    Good game if you've got a friend to play with, but toxic if you're on your own. Either spend 10 to 15 minutes getting rammed and insulted by your team mate or leave early and get a 5 minute ban. Alternatively play unranked where zero match making exists and you'll spend the majority of the game playing with bots. It'll be a great game when they start banning the people ruining it insteadGood game if you've got a friend to play with, but toxic if you're on your own.

    You can even just hold down accelerate and change channel, you get banned for that too. The devs want you to be as miserable as possible for as long as possible.

    If your a parent, for the love of god dont let your parents play such a toxic environment. If they insist, I woul strongly advise turning chat off.    … Expand

    Malo, malo, malo... Un juego ideal para niños rata y piperos en el cual su único aliciente son las partidas online que son aburridas y repetitivas a más no poder.

    Ruined by the last patch, Matchmaking is broken, the lag is horrendous, rubberbandings, the game is a source of frustration due all this, be sure you get friends to play with, otherwise the game will be boring by the time and after you join into ranked matches you won't be just bored but also frustrated due the one of the worse matchmaking system ever made.

    The devs are in over their heads.

I knew Epic Games was a joke that doesn’t care about consumers at all, I just hoped it wouldn’t become this bad on my favorite game. The prices need to be adjusted, that’s a minimum. But Epic knows the prices are ridiculous so they’ll change them after community outrage and then play like they’re the good guy and gain fan favor. If you love video games do not fall for this, Epic know it’s ridiculous, they did it on purpose just to fix it later. Epic have proved again for the 100th time that we are a bottom line, not a human with a heart and soul that got into videogames as a kid because we thought they were fun. The days of coming home from school and getting to play your favorite game without predatory business practices being shoved down your throat are over thanks to EA, Epic, Activision etc. This is the pinnacle of what videogames have become, we are all numbers to them, please boycott Epic games or at least their predatory practices… Expand

    This is a bad game. Because it's only about loot boxes and for skill and if you don't have skill your friends will bully you and stop playing

    The proposal of the game is good, but the execution is not satisfactory. The game is very repetitive and there are no differences between the cars although it is a free game it could be better worked with more game modes. Overall it is a game that you will play once with friends and then forget about it.

    The physics are prolly the dumbest thing about it. The air rolls are nearly worthless without any decent momentum; it's really great when you jus' spin instead of actually rolling in a direction and fly a billion miles past the ball. The jumping ain't **** either and the wall riding is some gay **** that don't even need to be there 'cause it's already hard as hell to control your car whileThe physics are prolly the dumbest thing about it.

The jumping ain't **** either and the wall riding is some gay **** that don't even need to be there 'cause it's already hard as hell to control your car while being tackled a thousand different directions. It's floaty as hell, so the lightest touch might as well send you into another game. How can this game even be remotely seen as competitive (not that I care about it here). That's like saying Smash Bros. Ultimate is competitive and we know that's a ****post from the main Smash Bros. subreddits.

    There is absolutely no pleasure in playing this game online against other players, I play well against bots at the pro level, but the online system completely ignores my level, and constantly puts to play against very skilled players, it is impossible to set it in the settings, so my teammates call me a noob... Yes, I am noob and I want to play with noobs!

    This game is broke. Community extremely toxic. I have been playing since release and it has only got worse. Every rank is filled with smurfs, players abandon matches within seconds if any goal is allowed, and communication is toxic/terrible. All while the Devs seem to do nothing about it. I do not recommend giving your time or money to this game.
