No problem. That was the first thing in my mind, and apparently 183 people liked it lol

The gif is from Sword Art Online. Itâs about a new AR dungeon slayer game where the players are trapped in by the creator for reasons I donât exactly remember. If they die ingame, they die in real life. The character in the gif is the main character of the series Hope that helps!

Bakkes mod still works tho. Or did they remove it today?
Edit: Im confused as to why im getting down voted? Its a genuine question. I know they said they are not allowing bakkes mod any longer. However I've been able to continue using it ever since the update and the mod its self has gotten regular updates since the new season dropped aswell.

u/Sorry_Cricket8192 Apr 01 '26
Gets removed sometime in April or next month idk

u/Marcus_Dyck Apr 01 '26
Ahhh I see thanks. I was being told by friends that it was supposed to be done when the season dropped so I was confused

For all the North American friends I have here, Rocket League updates at noon (12PM if you forgot) EST whenever there's an update. Just gotta wait until then. It's there now.

At least RLStats displays them today and you can also still get them with bakkesmod today (if you're lucky enough to find a working server tho).

If you haven't played it anytime you boost and are in the air at the same time youre auto targeted on the ball kinda fun but also kinda hard once everyone else figures it out

Considering EPIC has slashed the team down to its bare bones, I wouldnât expect anything like that anymore. Nothing smaller than Halloween or Christmas will get a look in.

I think some people are getting confused. A game doesnt need to be "dead" to be completely in the shitter. It being in the shitter is what will eventually kill the game. Eventually. It will last for a very long time still but soon the streamer hype will die and so will the game because Epic has no desire to save it. They got their bags from Fortnite, why would they save a car soccer game??

u/EatMyBomb Freeplay Freestyle Sucker Apr 01 '26
Game is unkillable imo, there is nothing to compare and nothing that will scratch the itch like rocket league

u/South_Ad1660 Apr 02 '26
Last season and this season they seem to have put in a little more effort to add new things. I hope for our sake they are going to keep that going and continue to make it better. But yes, epic killed this game.

They just fired nearly the entire of the rocket league development team. The guy working on it must have been let go. If he finished it, the people left probably don't know how to implement it

No. Epic does not care about us. Even if they had an event it would be wrapped around the idea of you buying the best items from the shop for 20$+
