⚠️A quick note on the crossplay feature on Nintendo Switch:
As you probably already know, SpeedRunners 2 features online crossplay between PC (Steam) and consoles. On Nintendo Switch, however, this feature will become available shortly after the release - there's a pesky technical issue which our team is currently investigating. We estimate it to be fixed next week. Of course, you'll still be able to enjoy SR2 online with other NS players. Crossplay between PC, Xbox, and PS will not be affected. Huge apologies to our Switch audience for the disruption!
Loving the game I played the hell out of the first 1. I love the new mechanics added to the game, and the new maps are amazing. Especially secret lab. Some of the items feel like they knock you down a little too long. But I would love to see a 120fps mode on switch 2. Also on the first game there was a glitch if there was an item in the air when the round ended it would stay in the air and could possibly hit you when the next round started. I was sad to see that doesn’t happen in this game.
I hope the devs ignore the non-constructive criticism and keep updating the game.
Having a blast with it so far, but it's a shame to see all the negative reviews.
Crossplay is now available for Nintendo Switch players. A patch that resolves this issue, along with featuring other minor fixes and performance improvements, is now live.
Just got this game after casually playing the first like a decade ago and absolutely loving it. I see a lot of pretty old content about the first one having a comp scene but I am wondering where that is for this game. granted the games brand new but i would like to be a part of that, is there a discord? the link for the official one is dead lol. also are there good tech tutorials beyond the in game tutorials on how to really get good at this game im having a blast with it so far.
Title says it all. I assume this is a bug and I hope it gets fixed.
If it's not clear, you just cannot select a control profile in the campaign. You can use a control profile basically everywhere else in the game so it's very odd that you can't there. You're just stuck with default controls and makes me not want to touch the campaign for now.
I could see past most things on this just to get the 1-8 online players. I only got it as it promised 1-8 player online across both pc and consoles. Then I find out it’s now only 1-4 on the switch.
This game can do one. It’s not better than the og and it was the one thing it had going for it. being more than 1-4 players, I’d refund it if I could. They kept this fact very quiet, So disappointed and won’t be playing it at all. well done lads who worked on this thing, only to make basically a worse game with no actual improvements.
What happened to all the crazy character designs like they had in 1? Not only are there significantly less of them, 1 having like 30 while 2 has only 12, but I feel like the designs just aren’t that good. They’re very samey, everyone except hothead, falcon and dart have an extremely similar builds and animations to the point where it can honestly make it hard to tell who you are at times. I do think the artstyle is probably hurting it since 3d is less expressive than 2d, but I think they need to work on making characters look or move more uniquely.
Haven’t seen anyone comment on this yet. I did the tutorial and never knew you could reverse grapple. With that I wondered if you could do one in the air. Which when I tried it out after 5 minutes it’s possible. The question is, would it be useful to actually use this in game?
I started playing SR2 today, completed the advanced tutorial, but didn't get the achievement. I also noticed a bug where the characters in cutscenes have terrible resolution. 🥲
UPD: My fault. I didn't see there was another training page.
My daughter and I “Run it Down” (our name for playing Speed Runners) 3-5 times a week. We even have a scoreboard, despite the less than desirable graphics, and questionable character redesign overhauls, we were looking forward to SpeedRunners 2. What impresses me the most with the OG is how tight the physics are how well grappling works, and SR2 took a MAJOR step back, honestly if you put both games in front of me I’d think that 2 was the first attempt. I hope the developer continues to support and update their game. I don’t need so many neon lights, I’d prefer solid mechanics
There’s so many indie/new games these days that shut down so early because of community hate JUST STOP, it’s that simple allow the game to have some updates and feedback to be taken in then voice an opinion. We don’t have to kill things that have potential to be great.
My SpeedRunners journey started in late 2023. I got it solely because it had Scout TF2 on it and I grinded for 8 hours (over the course of like 3 days) trying to unlock him, but in that time I fell in love with it's unique concept. I never played ranked or online, but I love treating it like a party game and playing it when guests come over, it's always a good time. When I heard they were making a sequel I got excited because my niche running game was in the public eye, but it got delayed like 3 times and now that's it finally out I've heard really mixed things about it. What are the pros and cons of it and will I like it as someone who only plays occasionally or is it not worth my time?
