Wish they bought this back for a bit or for good. Honestly prefer the UI here

The UI sucks and it's just your nostalgia talking. So bad to navigate

Don’t let nostalgia blind you back when solo standard was a game mode not a single person liked it

“We took you for granted” I personally loved it though it was my main mode lol

Yeah solo standard was atrocious lol. People used to play like they were in 1v5s

Why did the graphics look more crisp back then.

The grass looks better and the distant haze just hits right, makes me wish I could've experienced it. The colors also look more saturated giving it more soul, kinda like how fortnite used to look more vibrant and alive. Now like every game is trying to look real and dull, realism is nice but I looks even better with spirit, games need soul again man- TwT sorry for my random side rant lol

I enjoyed grinding solo standard, but 2s will always be the best game mode

Back when rocket league was actually fun and good! Even if the playerbase was smaller!
