Rematch developers, Sloclap, affirm reasons behind excluding dolphin interactions and levitating soccer players in their game update.
Strap yourself in, folks! Sloclap's serving up an honest helping of honesty in their latest hotfix for Rematch. Yup, that's right - they've finally admitted they couldn't keep those damned fish-flopping, football-playing champions in check. Alright, I might be overselling it a bit, but come on, it's always entertaining when game developers do a little dance around awkward gameplay issues, don't you think?
Let me break it down for ya. First off, there's the infamous "dolphin flopping." Turns out spamming dives while sprinting was faster than just straight-up sprinting, who'd have thunk it? But don't worry your pretty little heads, Sloclap's keeping a close eye on the game's evolution and recognizes some cool and interesting mechanisms. However, there are those slick moves that do more harm than good. And the big, bad culprits? Yup, you guessed it - dolphin flopping and the pure, unadulterated joy of floating football players.
It's important to note that these acrobatics let players bypass stamina and sprint speed limitations, causing some serious negative impacts on the game's feel and appearance. Sloclap, being the responsible devs they are, have temporarily ~~impaired~~ adjusted the diving recovery window to tackle this problem. But hey, they're keeping a close eye on the ripple effects, ensuring the move's integrity remains intact in legitimate circumstances.
As if that wasn't enough, they're also taking care of that pesky levitation issue, caused by repeated volley lob taps against a wall. Yeah, you know the one I'm talking about - those ghostly, levitating ghost-techs trudging across the pitch like specters from a forgotten video game era. Once again, it's a bug, and it needs fixing. Fix it they did, by reducing the ball's interactable frames. But beware, this change might make some solo backboard setups... well, more challenging.
In a nutshell, Sloclap's being cautious about these changes, understandably - the line between an exploit and a cool tech move is thinner than a cat on a hot tin roof. But we all know nobody's gonna lose sleep over these hotfixes. After all, there's no referee there to blow their whistle whenever John Football decides to scale the arena walls. The full patch notes conclude with a stability issue resolution, no biggie.
