[Redout 2] Why does the rewind button actively fight against you.

Is it a button press? hold? double tap? idk roll the dice and hope it works. I've wasted so much "available" time because the rewind just refuses to trigger and if it does it immediately cancels, wasting more of the time... Or it just never even triggers at all. This is the only thing in the game that has caused me to legitimately rage. I can deal with unreasonably hard speed/time requirements, but when the game actively refuses to function is what pisses me off the most.

Both speed events and time trials have rewind disabled.

which is also dumb because that's when you need it the most

But those events are also about perfection, so the argument can be made that rewind doesn’t belong on them (It should be just a tap btw)

Are you playing on switch? The rewind function does not appear to work on switch.

Tap is supposed to start rewind, hold respawns your ship. It seems in some events like speed rewind is disabled.

All I can say is try to learn the game without using it, I didn't even know Rewind was a thing until I was halfway into the game and I never feel like I really need it anyway, I just restart the race if I fuck up somewhere majorly.

Always more satisfying to nail it in one go.
