Are there people inside the cars?
Or are they unmanned vehicles remotely controlled by the player?

If you want lore... you chose the wrong game.

I ask because I am working on real world equivalent to rocket league. My follow up question was if the scale was regular size cars on a soccer size field or RC hobby size cars on a custom fireld.

Well there's no way that the egg people are fitting in there.
Also, demolition = murder? Pretty horrific.
I didn't even consider the egg people :steamsad:

If the vehicles are manned they would need heavy duty roll cages, the collision/demolition physics would be very different to what is experienced in game. Rockets are probably also out, the cars wouldnt be able to withstand the heat, I am thinking hydrogen jets.

Radio controlled cars...tiny. Look at the ball which is "regulation" size.

I always assumed they were RC cars, based on the huge ball size, the cars having antenna, and the wildly varying body designs - some semi-realistic sportscars, alongside hotrods and spacecraft.

I'd say it's more like a plasma held in a gravity field until it comes in contact with the fuel intake. So you need an ultra absorbent intake system that can instantly transfer its fuel to power. The environment would also need to be like 1/4 earth's gravity.
Figure that one out for the real world :steamsad:

I always thought life size because they are reworked battle cars from UT2K3. But at the end of the day the cars are just what they are. More function over form. Go-cart sized???

Compare them to the train in Urban... how far does the rabbit hole go?

The devs in their GDC presentation would neither confirm nor deny they were RC cars. Early builds of the game also had people inside but that could have changed. Full-size cars can have a large antenna. They did this on purpose to give the game some sense of mystery I guess.

Ya'll think real people would risk their lives for soccar? You can blow up if oponent hits you fast enough... And you respawn after few sec... As far as I know respawn isn't possible... YET. Dunno bout RC too. Don't you need another rc controller if your car gets blown up for amother car? That's n more shows why this game have no storyline - it's kinda complicated. Cause devs wasn't lazy at all. They just forgot... (drums) Spongebob voice: "IMAGINATION!" (it's just my dumb*** opinion) :csgoanarchist:

The car is an extension of your very soul. We are the cars, and the cars are us. When we are demolished, we experience ego death. Something that some people appreciate, and others are outraged and terrified by. At the moment one reaches true zen, they are one with every movement of the car, and live each moment like it's their last percentage of boost.

Obviously.

Real RC cars don't just materialize out of thin air either.
