Some real problems

[pale slate]

Yesterday a community discord inaugurated its first tournament on Rumble. It wasn't the best of experiences.

lobbies were slow to create because you always need to add the match creator, to change host you always have to go back to the main menu, Almost every participant had to restart the game more than once because private matches didn't start. It lasted something like 10 hours.

in short, the game is currently in a pitiful state, not to mention the matches between different regions, Europeans and South Americans are enemies by nature, there cannot be a normal match between them.
There is evidence of all of these things because most of the teams streamed

the situation is this, either we try to salvage all together as a community, or we can keep asking for new skins and watch the game slowly sink.

to you the choice

This is very important, I tried linking some of the POVs but I couldn't send. This server doesn't let twitch and youtube links to be posted apparently

I was there and also experienced this issue. Several times when trying to enter a private match, it would say "matchmaking search failed". This happened so many times it made the tournament take hours longer.

This is very important. Please. For the life of this game

I WAS THERE

I understand that private lobbies will not be a priority but even for those that want to do stuff between some friends im sure it’ll be appreciated by a large number of people that’ll keep playing this game amongst friends

TfB, if you want to keep Rumble alive for a long time please listen to the competitive community.
We all love the game and see the potential it has and are willing to organize Tournaments for all players. But for that you NEED to improve some things in the game. Connectivity, especially for Cross-Region. Balance some stuff, keep an eye on the Meta.
We would like to see you guys putting in resources and time for improving the competitive aspects of the game. It has a lot of potential, you just need to work on it!

The online fixes should be a priority. Adding all of these characters, modes, etc don't really have me hyped with these issues. We get all of this stuff, but have to deal with unbalanced teams in matchmaking due to poor MMR (it gets stale overtime playing matchmaking since 1 team stomps others), massive issues online due to the subpar netcode and private lobbies not working proper.

Watching the video by Dan on what's coming and not a single mention of the online issues has me really worried. We all have a blast with the core gameplay, but I am super worried of how long stuff will last just cause of the online stuff

Please consider these issues.
