It is a lot like hockey, particularly the presence of boards.

The game also has a really solid soundtrack, which you can buy off of iTunes. Like, really solid, considering you barely hear any of it in the game itself.

Personally I'd like it much more if they removed all the vocal tracks from the music.......

What's the deal with the aerial training? I can't seem to jump, double jump, blast jump, whatever the hell high enough for even the first shot.

Jump, point your nose up, and then boost. You can fly.

I play both hockey & soccer IRL, and this definitely reminds me more of hockey. Too bad you can't go behind the goal.

I still have a lot of problems with that. I'm not sure if it is because I use mouse/keyboard, or because I am just terrible. Probably both.

The folks quitting games when they're losing are missing out on the best part of the game. Fighting back when you're down 3 points, to win the game in overtime is such a rush. They also don't hone their performance under pressure. Chumps.

This game is far too addictive. From the time I got home from work to, well, NOW I've been playing it non stop. I may have gotten a little dehydrated as well. Uninstalling, it's just too dangerous.

True, but you can do one better and just ride the back of the goal and shoot out of the top of it

I kind of wish you could still drive around after a goal, so you can divebomb the corner like they do in soccer.

I didn't play at all last night and I feel like it was an accomplishment.

Instead, I played 3 games of "Pandemic: The Cure" with my wife.

My friend is coming over for some split-screen tonight. He and I played for hours last Sunday and had a blast. It will be a late night, for sure.

Patch live on steam now.

The most important part:

Topper: “Cherry Top” now includes a working, rotating light
Topper: “Propellerhead” now includes a working, rotating blade

These are very crucial improvements.

I have stopped playing this game unless I have marathon time available. I can't start late in the evening (when I usually play) because I get so excited I won't stop until 4am. Even then, I'll be way too jacked up for the middle of the night/early morning. It's a problem. Uninstalling may be the only option.

I've been unable to play this week for similar reasons. I've had a mild cold, and I can't trust myself to stop at a decent hour.

New patch is live, played a few rounds during lunch. Seems the same but it's mostly a bug patch right?

Is there any way to group with PC players? I can only invite via PSN

I'd love to see some private 3v3 matches, maybe even a tournament bracket.

As of now, there's no way to connect with friends cross-platform. The cross-platform stuff is used for matchmaking only.

I noticed that they show who is playing on PS4 and who is playing on PC.

Maybe we should start a support group, Fedaykin

Ranked matches are sooooo much better now that quitters are penalized.

Know anyone whose recovery is advanced enough for them to be a sponsor?

is the patch live on PS4? or is it just steam only.

Ps4 too.

What is the penalty for quitting?

You get suspended from matchmaking for 15 minutes. Also, the actual tracking of stats online is a big boost for people trying to get the 500 km challenge on the tires.

Finally!

Sithload [gwj] and I were randomly put into the same instance, and had a number of good games with a bunch of randoms.

Definitely add [GWJ] or something like it to your Steam tag.

We need these on PS4.

I need to get this game, don't I?

That would probably be a good idea

Coming on leaps & bounds with timing my connections with the ball in ball cam. Getting great clearances, hitting good shots & blocking stuff fairly well all over.

Have used the boost flight at kick off to rush towards the ball but only lifting a few feet off the ground, it works pretty well hitting it from a higher angle at times.

I want lots of DLC for this game, some new game modes would be awesome. Definitely one of the best games of the year so far.
