When I'm one race away from ranking up and a 470 degree turn causes my controller to vibrate like a sex toy and my car to explode like a gmod ragdoll, relegating me to 11th place for the rest of match (this will lose 34% of my rank) (I am only playing this gamemode because it takes 900 hours to reach Level 72 in the Battlepass)
Probably my favorite mode in fortnite, I dont know why it's more popular. The game feels extremely fast, maps are expansive and are distinct in its layout. And the mechanics of flying and flipping especially are great ways to spice up the game loop. It just feels really good to play consistently, its not perfect especially with the emphasis on checkpoints, but It's consistently fun everytime I play it.
Sometimes this is Mario Kart 8 at home. I think it's my favorite of the new modes they've added, but there are times where the collision is borked, and the assets are reused in ways that feel bad. I do enjoy the feeling of some of the tracks where you're able to finish 6 seconds in front of everyone else because you can route better.
Mixed feelings. Game plays great and is actually really fun, but as you climb the online ranks you start getting put into more "advanced" tracks all of which are the exact same tracks you've been playing but with tons of stupid orange hazard blocks scattered everywhere. Yeah, it's certainly more challenging but it's a lot less fun. The game's at it's best on simple straightforward tracks with lots of interesting shortcuts and hidden boosters that reward using the full movement tools you're given.
Also feels like this mode is almost already dead. Epic is stil pushing Lego and Festival very hard in promotion but it already feels like RR is being left with a skeleton crew just porting over old Rocket League assets. A real shame.

If it wasn't because of Chocobo GP, this would be the most sauceless racing game I've ever played
