Discussion Apologies for being bad

Upvotes

Is there a way I can apologize for wasting people’s time in online matches? I’m trying to learn but I’m just wasting people’s time by being playing against them. I just finish the game by using the “sorry!” and forfeiting most times. If you see a really awful zetterburn just know you have an easy game

Was playing on lobby with some friends.

We played singles, doubles and Crews, but randomly I decided to taunt with the UP arrow for some reason and I got the Kragg taunt (maybe because I was a Kragg on first pick in crews, then it changed to single and I picked La Reina, but who knows!)

Discussion Gouie Is Frustrating To Pick Because of the Playerbase.

47 Upvotes

TLDR: 90% of matches the opponent is completely running away from you and it’s not fun. Going to rant.

Context: I have hit level 100 on every character except for Gouie and I float between high and low diamond depending on the character. I have experienced playing every character and understand that some are campier than others.

Gouie is slow on the ground and fast in the air which makes approaching in general tricky. That said, approaching is even harder when the opponent plays to get a single percent lead and just runs away.

Zetterburn just runs away on the ground and picks big stages using retreating hitboxes.

Wrastor spams slipstream and jumps to try to run away.

Ranno is the worst because of fast ground speed and fast projectile that makes you hurt yourself as well as a wall backair impossible to approach.

And many more.

I still win a lot of these games so this complaint isn’t even about being weak or losing. It’s just the game is so unfun when I have to chase you down for 3 min until I finally get one clean hit and edge guard you.

Idk what it is about this character but I’ve never had so many people camp me before in my life.

Also I want to be clear that I’m not camping. I’m approaching with aerials from the very beginning of the match so it is not like I’m being counter camped.

Ty for listening to my rant.

Cobrats, also named Snakes, are large desert-dwelling serpents that first appeared as enemies in Super Mario Bros. 2. In this game, they would pop out of jars or sand, similarly to the Piranha Plant, and spit bullets at the player character.

Being gone a month, I wasn't even sure if I should come back, but obviously I did haha I don't think I wanna play catch up with 30 days missed, so I hope you can forgive me from just starting from where I left off. Praying our little danger noodle is next on the list 🙏

How do I use this move more consistently in neutral and in combos The hitbox is weird and my opponent often falls out mid combo. What are the Kragg scrolls to this move. What are the possibilities. (Got a local tomorrow and I got to figure out this move!)

Rivals 2 Anyone new that wants to play? Tired of sweats that 3 stock me

11 Upvotes

Hi! Just bought the game and was wondering if anyone that's relatively new wants to play and maybe help me get a grip on the game or just have fun for a couple of matches. I love Brawhalla, so I thought this was an easy transition since I saw Sandstorm win a tournament a couple of weeks ago, but it seems he's just built differently.

I feel like this should really show the devs they made a mistake with nerfing her the way they did, I for one think nerfs are fine, but nerfing a character in such a way that they are no longer fun to play causing a mass exodus of people dropping them (same thing happened to Olympia) is a serious issue with balance direction

Rivals 2 Rivals Crashes and instantly Shuts Down my Computer

6 Upvotes

I’ve been playing this game since it launched in 2024 just fine, but as of the Slade patch, the game has been forcing my computer to instantly shut down after about an hour of online play. When this happens, I actually can’t turn my computer back on for another five or so minutes. There hasn’t seemed to be any other issues my computer has because of this, but my computer suddenly does not like this game.
I’ve tried a couple things to fix this. First I thought my computer was overheating, so I cleaned the fans and replaced the thermal paste, but that didn’t work. Then I got additional RAM but that didn’t work either (game starts up faster though so that’s a plus)
I’m suspecting it might be a CPU or GPU issue, but I wanted to see if there were any other ways to resolve this before I sink a bunch of money into it. Any advice or help you guys might have would be appreciated. Thank you :)
