In my opinion, they should:

add a 1st person view as well

Reduce Dodge cool down from 6 seconds to 3.

faster movement

add an offline mode

let us host games

free weekend some time soon

lower the price of the game if you are going to charge for battle pass.

Other than that feels and plays great ! Its a lot of fun ^

Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

On that last note - did you know that you can actually EARN Rocket Fuel just by completing Seasonal Challenges? Additionally, wait til you see what comes in the Blast Pass. (It's a lot.)

Custom playlists (so we can skip unwanted modes on Arena)

KnockOut Only Ranked

Regular Ranked

A "Keep playing" checkbox after every match (I believe it would also help matchmaking, you will know which players want to stay)

A "Stay in party" option after every match

Also you should communicate your plans for Rocket Pass to the public and wich ways you'll implement to earn Rocket Fuel by playing.

I'm worried about the amount of content right now and if the cosmetics you'll add by Rocket Pass are going to be attractive enough to keep us playing (grinding even)

I like Rocket Arena, but right now feels like a great concept (that plays great when I can find a match) but a little empty on cosmetics.

And we have more blogs coming focusing on Season 1, Blast Pass, etc.

It would be cool to have more items in the game. Something like a "stim" which gives your weapon a faster firing rate and reload speed. Or maybe bandages, which will decrease the delay to recover the blast meter?

Edit: Also for the Magnet, there should be a better visual representation for it because there are times when I'll shoot and visually it shouldn't grab the rocket but it does.

That's what Artifacts are for.

unless we can earn 950 rocket fuel in the first season, then it's pretty pointless. nobody wants to miss BP rewards in the game they already payed for + game will be dry by season 2 with its current business model. knowing EA I can only earn 300 each season or something like that.

If you buy the Blast Pass, you actually get enough Rocket Fuel with it for the next pass. Complete Season Challenges and you earn more for cosmetics.

Bring back FPP mode. May be as an option, may be mandatory change, but with this type of gameplay it’s so much better to have first person camera instead of watching character’s back.

Appreciate the feedback.

We have a great blog from Kevin, CEO of Final Strike Games, on why the shift to 3P happened. Make sure to check it out:

Do something about a player leaving. Let them return or punish them. 2v3s in this game are miserable and you are probably not going to win or have a decent time at all.

Definitely something we've shared with the Dev team. Thanks for your comment.

There are artifacts you can use to boost abilities and reduce cooldowns. Have you tried those yet?

he's talking about the items that come from the ? boxes. there are like 4 items in total and after a minute you've seen them all. more items would be good.

Thanks for the clarification!

I would like a feature where I could see players I've played with in past games. I played with a really cool teammate one game and lost him forever once I left the score screen.

If you’re on console, you can see “Players You’ve Met” in the system settings, I believe. Good call out, though.
