Yes

What is Halo ball? Back when I played Halo (I stopped somewhere in 3's lifetime) There was only Griffball -which was nothing like this game.

Yet halo ball is garbage and rocket league is a playable game. instead of being a hipster crybaby how about you are happy that finally someone made halo ball into a proper game that can be played instead of wrestled with

The only thing Rocket League is like is Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars. Halo ball was bad and this sure is not Griffball.

Then Later we had the SIN mod....

Then even later we had the Duke Nukem mod....

Then Team Fortress did Murderball....

I'd reckon this was one of the first if not the first game to use vehicles for soccer.

Carball. 2006 mod. Same developers.

Try not to feed the troll too much. He might just get too excited in his little pants.

Interesting post on their forms from someone asking if they made the carball 2k4 mod and they actually didn't.

Thanks for posting!

We actually designed and created the Onslaught Mode in UT2004, and all of the vehicles in UT2004, UT3, Gears of War, and UE4.

No, Rocket League (or SARPBC) is not inspired by that mod. That mod is great, but the idea came of it's own. We were working on an earlier version of the game, know then as Crash Course. We were trying out some ideas during a company wide idea day called Kismet Monday (KisMonday) and Psyonix-Adam dropped a ball in the game, added a few goals, and made a new genre. We had so much fun with it that we couldn't stop playing it long enough to do work, so it just became the game. And here we are almost 8 years later.

Brilliant ideas are often simple ideas. I'm sure a preschooler could come up with the idea to hit a ball with a car. Execution is what makes a game great or poor though. I used to play Powerball in the 2D space game Subspace many years ago (around 2000 I think?) and it had spaceships hitting a ball into a goal like soccer. There is an airplane game where you hit a ball into a goal with airplanes called Altitude. Once there was an exhibition sport at the olympics where people were playing soccer on motorcycles. In water polo people swim in a swimming pool and try to hit the ball into the goal. In lacrosse the people use sticks with nets on them to pass and throw a ball into the soccer goal. You can come up with unlimited variations of soccer by varying the size, shape, and construction of the ball and what object you use to hit it into the goal.

Well by the way you think, i could say that Halo is a copy Wolfenstein 3D...so suck it :o

[Haste]

Have you never heard of the original Rocket League, S.C.A.R.A.B. which came out in 1997? Nice try.

Then comments like yours roll in, C-Block, and it makes it all worth it. I didn't even check OP date.
