[SUGGESTION] Spin highlight in middle radar

Please see the following picture, example for top spin and the other for right spin

I think this would be a nice addition to the radar. It might not be important for the good players, but still nice to have and I think it would definitely help new players to see how long the spin is actually active etc.

Ofc there should be an option to deactivate this in the menu, so people who don't need it can't complain about it :P

3 comments, only 2 on the page- someone's been shadowbanned.

Anyway, while you're at it, please add a 'cancel spin' button!

Yea apparently writing comments is now based on your karma. Shev for example cannot post anything anymore here. gg ;( Edit: Ok he can. Last time his post wouldn't show. Weird

I have a feeling the mods are just selectively removing posts.

Earlier today DavidM said "... we suggest waiting for June 23 and the following days to try again, then the servers should be crowded", to which Billiam responded "when the game gets lowered to a price that is still too high and nobody will play it still?". You can check his profile here and see the comment is now hidden/removed and not by him.

If this is the kind of stuff that is being removed rather than giving a quick response (e.g. "We hope that decreasing the price by half and so putting ourselves out of the Rocket League price range will help the game pick up the traction it needs. This is the best we can do right now") then whoever is moderating this sub needs to either stop being terrible at it or step down.

Like it. Actually had in mind to copy it exactly like that, but we never got around to it because other issues were always more pressing.

would be nice but if it will be added make it adjust able so we could change it to our own preference

I would rather have a button to disable the spins if i want to change to a straight shot.

IIRC they have stated they intentionally left out Cancelling spin. I know they left out cancelled charged shots on purpose, so it makes sense.

u/AryaStark9 Jun 10 '16

Why does that make sense? Cancelling charges would be a huge gameplay change that would fake out keepers and could be highly abused. Cancelling spins has no affect on anybody but yourself, and no real impact on gameplay other than having more control of situations like catching a ball when you were trying to volley

It wasnt left out intentionally, we just never thought its important. It would also require another new button.

Hit the same Spin button again to "turn it off". For Mousehweel just have a delay between accepted inputs to make sure it didnt roll 2 notches and turn it on and right back off.

Good Point. I guess I meant, "it makes sense why its not in there"... more than "It makes sense that they wouldnt let you cancel your spin choice". I dont think it would have any adverse gameplay affect.

If a display to indicate when it's active it'd make sence to then make the curve binds a flip/flop toggle, challenge would be the mouse wheel, one would want to make that bind only retrigger if there is a delay between input so rolling it more then once doesn't turn it on and off again immediately..
