That's not even an opinion you can have.
You aren't in a position to award anything with GOTY.

You must be really cute, lady.
I kid, I kid.
But try it. They could've replaced cars with chairs and it would still be awesome.

Not flaming you, but any game can be game of the year. The only annual award an indie game wouldn't be up for is "non-indie game of the year," which thankfully doesn't exist (I think? I hope).
Games are games. AAA, indie, mobile, doesn't matter.
Shovel Knight was GotY 2014 <3

looks fun but I have always sucked at racing and soccer games, that's why I ain't so excited.
Why not put it that way in the first place and not the drivel you posted?

If we took GOTY out of the title would you be OK with it then?
The hype is justified because we HAVE played the game in near finished form and it was fucking glorious. We are very close to getting the full game and people like me are very excited.

Didn't Gone Home get a lot of GoTY awards as well?

Aye boss,
I'm just here to talk about games.
Let's not worry about the "degradation of the forums integrity by becoming an echo chamber of hyperbole."

Valid criticism that I fully accept.
Cool, now beat it
Make your own thread if you want to talk about the hype on pre-released games being too much, I got rocket shit to do

I wonder if a mod would be kind enough to put Rocket League in the title so everybody knows what they're rolling into

So essentially the most suped up version that ever existed of Top Gear football?

I played the beta and it was fun for 20 minutes but GOTY? c'mon. Its fun with friends, pretty boring solo.

Just to try to ignore him. He infected the PS+ thread with his brand of idiocy, so please don't feed him any oxygen.
Don't forget that it also has Sweet tooth:https://youtu.be/85eprw73AIM

I played the PS3 predecessor and was totally underwhelmed, so I'm not at all interested in a sequel. Good for those excited for the game, though.
And since I don't play multiplayer, well, that last part is damning.

No thanks. Sounds like an awful fucking forum where a thread like this isn't allowed.
I'm not going to flame you. I'm just curious why you think an indie game can't be a GOTY contender?
Shit posting is not a way to survive this forum.

Here's the problem: you didn't read the first post. If you had read the first post, you would've figured out that I have played the game, since, you know, I stated that. You also would've seen that I wrote multiple qualifiers that the game isn't out yet, and thus could still be buggy, could still have anemic features, etc. Hell, I even said it could potentially be a GOTY candidate in the thread title, not that it would be.
But you didn't read any of that. Instead you decided to shit up the thread, bitching that I'm blindly propping up the game without ever having played it.
So I'm left here wondering why I should give a shit about what you have to say?
(that's a rhetorical question)
Back to the fun. Check out this video of a guy I played against in the beta:

He is... a lot better than me.

The hype is built around people who have played the game. we have 6 days before we can play it so all we could do it be excited in anticipation. This thread was a response to people in the PS+ thread that had no idea what this game was about many of whom had negative feelings. It's just to inform them there is fun to be had and it's worth a try. If the game ends up sucking the OT will see to that being known. I think this forum will survive.
Some people only view retail games as worthy of being on PS+ and Knack is one that everyone always expects to appear first.

Damn right! It would really blow if the title suffers from game-breaking lag or something similar, but overall the two betas were incredibly smooth, so it's looking good.
The beta had a matchmaking system that allowed you to select different server locations (US West, US East, Europe, etc) and the types of games you were willing to play (2v2, 3v3, 4v4, etc).
Once you've selected everything, it starts looking for a match with the best possible parameters (ie a 3v3 game in the same region of servers that you're located, with players of similar skill level)... the longer it can't find a match, the more those parameters widened.
Thus the only times I got noticeably hit with lag was when I was playing on a European server late at night. And even then, it was still playable.
So of course something bad could've happened between then and now, and something bad could happen on launch. There's always a chance of that happening, and there's no way Rocket League players on GAF won't let people know if that's the case.
But I'm optimistic about this game. It's a nice state of mind
In my opinion, it's ridiculous, pretty dumb, and a little funny, in that order.

I Played plenty of hours in the beta as others have and it's great. So just stop with the calling someone a fanboy shit posting.
Many of us enjoyed the music. I would leave the game in the menu just so I could listen to one of the songs that was so damn good.
One of the worst comments I ever read... indie games are not even a genre, art style or whatever... there are small 2d indie projects and big triple A like indies... also Knack wasn't as bad as said by many reviewers. Sure it wasn't the best game but it was alright. Liked playing it with my son.
You should try a game before judging just because there is no publisher behind it doesn't make a game bad Oo But well, guess you're also not playing Kingdom Come when it comes out.
Your loss I guess, seriously... this game is not easy to explain to someone that didn't play it, but as soon as you played 1-2 rounds, its pure gold and so much fun... played the beta for hours... the whole night. sogood.gif

This looks like a game I'll play for a couple hours, love, but then get bored of. And that's fine, that would be more time than I've put into most games on Ps4 plus.

Is this pretty much the football game in Monster Truck Madness, but with verticality?

I wouldn't say that's the case here, but it's definitely something that's becoming more and more prevalent around here. Those face off threads in particular seem to bring it out of a lot of people.
Do you have to manually set up that shot with the car, or is that just aim assist?
EDIT: looks like your teammate passes you the ball and it gets magnetized to your car
Thank god for this. I'm getting the PC version and was afraid the online population would be a tiny hardcore one. The PC version has split-screen too, right?
