If you could wave a magic wand and change anything about Rec Room, what would you change? Check out this related video if you have time! ruclips.net/video/hNMbqu2dXU0/видео.htmlsi=UD8f10UR_Oi4M-Js
it annoys me because the featured inventions/dorm skin tabs DID rotate every week with submissions (I got two inventions featured) then they were "temporarily" suspended after invention tower was discontinued and then featured custom shirts stopped after the Megan (the person reviewing the submissions) went on maternity leave and despite her returning, the shirts are yet to be rotated again
I actually have a couple things. I wish you could take your monster anywhere and I wish there was more ink that you could use in a room from your maker pen.
I hate it that when I try to promote my map using events, for example, my hangout map ^Treetop-Cove, it just gets burried to the bottom of the events tab because of all the military events. Rec Room should add a tab for "New" Events so people can experience those maps.
I agree with every point here.. Its so sad to see RR go down this path. i used to grind everyday for weeklies or even just go and explore different maps. So disappointing..
11:38 YES THERE IS NO FILTER i have someone who was just sending me cuss words because i wouldnt gift them a 4,800 token skin so i blocked them and unfriended and now i feel happy. Also i have that low poly bug a lot (im a quest 3 player) especially on my friends.
I actually used to play that daycare game (specifically that one) a lot, mainly bc I love FNaF and Sun and moon are my favorite characters, but Ive stopped playing it. Not bc of the toddlers but there were a few toxic people there (not many but it was still annoying). They made the fly costume rlly cheap too so there where ppl flying left and right. It’s a well made game but I just can’t play it.
I know I haven’t commented in a LOOOONG time but, Great vid Tara! Thank you for calling out rec room. I really hope that they watch this video and take in all of the feedback. ❤
i left recroom like a while ago. when featured inventions got "halted". now im watching the game go up in flames. at least from an outside perspective. i made some good memories and had a good time. at least rec room cant put a paywall in front of that
There's still lots of fun to be had in my opinion. It's easy to be bitter when you've been around for years. sometimes I wish I could go back, erase my memory and start over as a Level 1 and see how I'd experience it with fresh eyes.
I’m glad more people are finally starting to wake up to issues this game has. Me personally, I fear that it’s too late. Problems like the ones mentioned in the video didn’t just pop up out of nowhere. For as long as I’ve been apart of the community, those disgruntled with the state of rec room have been written off, by the majority of the community as haters, or entitled, or just bored with the game without realizing it; Now, years later, we’re here. It took years to dig this hole, and if there’s any hope that Against Gravity changes their ways, it’ll take years to get back to a quality product again.
One of the reasons the weekly was killed is because 0.2% of active players played it (ESPECIALLY NEW PLAYERS) So maybe we can just give them a notification? This would help people know that weeklies even exist. And if people are annoyed getting a notification every week then maybe also add a notification symbol next to the challenged tab. This would help too (Probably less but still) And add the weekly stand back to the dorm room. Also the "0.2% of active players played the weekly" is so dumb to me lol like 0.4% of active players play paintball so why not remove paintball?? Lol
It was almost fully automated anyways, they should've just pasted the basic skins onto every item (caution, plaid, wooden, etc.) and made *those* the weeklies in an automated system.
I've played Rec Room for over 5 years now, and its really hard for me to believe what Rec Room is turning into, its just such a mess. And Tara sounded really genuine and passionate in this video, i hope Rec Room starts to listen soon...
The worst games have to be Ignited rooms. Filled to the brim with keys/consumables that are 1k+ tokens, just the same game concept (going around a copy&pasted map looking for 5 sheets of paper), and how ungodly promoted these rooms are. I have a friend that works for a game called Ignited-Frebear and through out the last 3 weeks, the only game he was in was that SAME EXACT room spam inviting his 1k+ friends. I mean, I get it. You need to earn tokens from your game somehow, but do you serious believe a un-original game bassed off a copyrighted character should be making all these tokens? This is the exact reason why a bunch of my friends who were creators quitted. Games that they actually worked hard on do not even get on the new tab because its burried under all of these cash grabbing ignited rooms that were only made to squeeze as much money out of you as possible.
I do tend to agree. I'm hopeful for custom carousels so I can stop seeing this stuff. What I find alluring vs what the majority seem to find alluring..not at all the same.
@@Tarapeutic yeah. In my opinion the best Ignited game has to be Ignited Markiplier. You will have to collect milk, use your milk to try to kill Ignited Markiplier. Plus it has a unique currency system to get consumables. Its a really fun game and I hope you would check it sometime.
@@DaCoolSpiderhahaha i literally came here to comment that! I love when they DO make it unique! Ignited Markiplier, yes! You literally get to fight back against the monster, it has silly finally audio, he can use the caged areas to teleporting to other cages around the map, etc.
RIP weekly's 2017 2024 I mean, I still love Rec Room, but I get overwhelmed at public lobbies sometimes. Here are more annoying things I like to point out in Rec Room. When I go the invention store, the featured inventions are nothing but so and so pets, I feel like they're doing featured rooms, and not featured inventions, I feel like they abandoned it. Toxic players think they know the code of conduct, or they just pretend it doesn't exist, they just think they rule the Rec Center, speaking of rec centers, sometimes I get approached by squeakers that set their voices to high.
I haven't played Rec Room in a minute, but 26,000 tokens?!?! You can tell this company is just getting money hungry at this point, I haven't played properly in over a year or so, I have noticed a lack in original content such as RROs compared to how it was back in the day. And along with all the bugs and stuff too? Like come on 😭I enjoyed playing this game back in 2017
I’m not trying to self promote but I felt for a while that everyone had 3 choices 1. Join the hord of cash grabs 2. Children playing the cash grabs/RecCenter kids 3. People that just leave RecRoom. But I decided to try to help fix what the community is doing to itself. I made a RR team where our only goal is to make fun unique games so people have something actually fun to do or play with there friends. But even after so long our rooms just won’t blow up because the cash grabs are to strong. So we decided we would make one final game, one game that’s so big and easy to understand it has to blow up . So we decided on making lethal company but in RR. Now don’t get all mad because this would actually be lethal company. First it’s all in one subroom no loading 2. The facility randomly generates for replay ability and 3 so many well coded monsters and features. So yea I hope it goes well and people will actually have something fun to play again.
the prices are VERY ANNOYING AHHH one day i see cute cat ears which are like 9,000 the next i see a cute make it to midnight backpack for the same price! AHH IM BROKE haha! and yesss your game was doing a weird thing when i saw you a couple days ago!
It seems like rec room is getting rid of everything rid of everything that makes people wanna play the game such as : weeklys , invasion , and contests (well sorta)
When ever my friend java streams I can feel the screams of 7 year olds begging to be in a video get burned into my brain, the bliss of a room with a 3 player max limit is my only saving grace
I made a cohesive comment on Ruth latest video, but TLDR the MP creator community is a shell of what it once was. I have 4,000+ hours on Rec Room, most of it spent on maker pen creation, bugs no longer get fixed, creator programs removed, and creators (due to the maker pen's abysmal state) are almost forced to solely use RRS if they wish any of their creations if they wish to get any amount of views.
Even with RRS people aren't getting views on their creations unless it's a certain type of map. And if they do, it seems to flop after 3-4 weeks (at least, that's how it was a year ago during Room Rewards) I'm sorry you're feeling frustrated. I hope for change soon, so that competent builders feel more nurtured by the game. Because we need people like you!
I sent an email to rec room a YEAR ago, and it was about the new contributor permissions. It took them a YEAR to realize a GIANT ISSUE FOR CREATORS. (Like myself) The only reason we needed this, is because Co-Owners, could clone rooms, letting them have owner of an exact copy of a room. This is how the copyable rooms got out, and trust me, as someone who has gotten their room copied, many, MANY times. This was a big issue. The fact it took them a year to actually realize that this was a big issues, kind of just proves they try to neglect us.
Yikes! And I thought the worst problem with contributor role was that I got added to like 50 rooms against my will. "My Rooms" is still incredibly cluttered because of this. Classic, not asking the community first - we could have potentially pointed out why that was not a good idea!
Oh my god yes, contributor was SO broken!! Also the new permissions UI is annoying too, you can't remove yourself from a certain permission level, *unless you're given permission to remove yourself?* Also the fact that contributor perms people show up in the creators tab on a room but you don't need to accept contributor perms and they can just be forced upon you??? Infuriating 🫤
Great video as always! I remember being in 3d Charades with you, Jeb, Alex, and Lion. I forgot to mention, that the Living Pet Seal has been there since I started a year ago in February 2023. Another thing is how I’m realizing another issue; Rooms 2.0. I’ve been working on a Rooms 2.0 room, and it is literally unplayable. When players join, the game breaks and goes 1FPS until I leave, and the animation controller doesn’t work. You have very great points, and I’ve heard a lot of these points echo in the community. If anything, Rec Room should start taking tips from all video partners.
I screenshot your comment in case anyone asks me again for feedback on Rooms 2.0. Keep in touch, you're a really good point of contact - someone who plays the game but has intelligent things to say about it while learning to build. I appreciate your insights!!! And it was fun playing 3D Charades, thanks for joining us!
“Don’t get me started on how our last weekly challenge ever was a pair of boots. It seems actually symbolic, it’s Rec Room kicking us while we’re already down.” SUCH A VALID QUOTE LOL!
i have to agree with you on that stuff im apart of lab team even i dont no if they listen to our advice and another annoying bug is the infinite health where someone can't be killed
I will go down with the ship. I love this game and unless they scrap the partner program altogether, I will be here making content. I think RR will be OK. This is just the awkward adolescent years. I'm hopeful.
When u play golden trophy or any other quest and u find a server,finally and there called Mightyhippo Uglybuffalo Gyattsniffer LIKE BROOOOOOOOO THEY NEVER GET IN THE SQUARE AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
there are a lot of games that do this actually! it helps the game preform smoother because being further away from a prop/object makes it more difficult to see, so game devs make lower poly versions on purpose to help keep the game run smoothly while only making small changes :D
of course sometimes theres bugs with this system and it can switch to the low poly model even if theyre close by, hopefully it gets fixed at some point
My problem with Rec Room. Is Used to be. Fun Grinding game To get your items. And maybe spend A little money here and there. And now You need rec room plus. And Up to $40 a month just to keep up with the fashion and rec room.
This issues are actually terrifying to me because some of these problems are parallel to Roblox. The biggest connection being the low effort games getting the most views. I came to Rec Room because it was like a new Roblox with more fun games like paintball and quest, so seeing it slowly change in ways that disregard the community worries me... hoping for the best!
I literally had worked on a painting for like 20 hours. I did get featured in rec room creative club gallery. But I honestly don’t know if people know if it’s existence. I also got a creator bubbly. But it feels like the 20 hours went down a long and sad drain.
@@Tarapeutic That's probably it, I'm enjoying the videos so far by the way, and I'm glad most rectubers like yourself are all speaking out about issues in a constructive way.
,Lately in the rec room community players have been echoing in the same sentiment about the game going downhill myself included I’ve had countless rounds with my friends And even shedded a few tears it sounds dramatic but it’s my job so too see this happening is a little depressing, PLUS CRYING IS FUN????!!! TARA ARE YOU OK?
Parents before: "You need to go outside and see some sun" Parents now: "here you go timmy! Your very own ipad+vr headset+Iphone 16+ PS5+X box series X. Happy first birthday timmy!" (No offense to anyone)
You forgot Number 11: When you buy RR+, A lot of players wants to be friend with you because they want free gifts from you all time And 12: When you accept a random friend request, That player invites you to random rooms all time and if you block it doesnt work. That player invites you again and again
Not to bring Fnaf into the mix but this somewhat reminds me of Fnaf AR special delivery. The game had a great start of its life span and was doing well but then the devs stopped listening to the community and updated less frequently (last content update was in 2022) eventually things got so bad it shut down March 2024. Not to scare anyone or say rec room is going to go down that same path, but it’s a very similar cycle of a good start and a downfall. (I mean most games have a low point so what do I know?) but Rec room definitely has a ways to go with things before a possible end so there is still time for them to turn around and change the game for the better. Idk this is just me rambling on about 2 games that had a very small relation to each other and both had a small similarity with their life cycle, but from how I look at it it’s scarily close with the overview details so idk. Definitely me being a stupid player who talks too much about video games. 😅 anyways ya’ll have a great day.
I really want another level cap because like over 5-15% of players are already level 50, and I’ve been level 50 for 4 years already. But I have a theory it MIGHT come out soon since it took 4 years for them to release a new level cap, and it’s been nearly 4 years now so it’s questionable
I used to play rec room in 2021 and I miss the weekly’s, they where the only reason that me and my online friends hung out most of the time since we all wanted to get those (at times) really nice skins. And I remember seeing a gucci trashcan that we all were grinding to get. And I’ll never forget all of the memories that I made and I hope that things will get turned around. But it’s probably very very slim for that to happen.
There's another thing that's bothering me in Rec Room, on my new VR which is a meta quest 3, it always kicks me out of games I'm in and it's annoying, it didn't do it on my meta quest 2, and a meta quest 3 is supposed to be better than a quest 2, right? :/
Heh Loading screen of death isn't the worst I had to factory reset my pc a couple of days ago because recroom had an issue starting up and having an error. Also another thing is when i had to update recroom on steam it wouldn't be the latest version, all of my friends were on the the new version and i had to update recroom on my quest 2 as well. Those are bugs that happened to me idk if its just steam thing or not but its weird with it recroom just having problems and none of my other games on either device...
3:51 I’ve requested (commented on their videos over 40 times) to let us recolor liquids of drinks and potions so I can “have a purple liquid come out a purple potion” and so far I’ve just gotten static
I swear bro i get accused of aimbot all of the time in screenmode paintball ppl usually says i play on mobile or i use aimbot is bc i can hit a target from a far distance
@@LightinRR-2.0 I know. It doesn’t make any logical sense. The paint bullets move so slow that (if aimbot was possible), by the time they would reach the player they locked on to, that person would’ve already moved.
i wish we could just have the old rr back where you could search for something in the makerpen and not have a lag spike every time you click a key, i miss the old ui and how fast it was, i miss when the most expensive items were the crowns. everything is so laggy now, and thats just one of the many issues. the games fallen off hard 😥
i don’t think you’ve mentioned this in the video yet (because i haven’t even watched it): have you ever played in a room before and rec room feels the need to kick you out into your dorm or back in the login room
If you could wave a magic wand and change anything about Rec Room, what would you change?
Check out this related video if you have time! ruclips.net/video/hNMbqu2dXU0/видео.htmlsi=UD8f10UR_Oi4M-Js
Cool!
I would change the maker pen back to when it was better :/
Probably military maps. When I’m looking at events all I see is military recruitment or something like that.
I would destroy every single crash item.
More Quests
Recroom forgot the building community made their game playable
I swear to God every single time I make a really good and detailed and good quality room It gets nothing because of the cash grabs getting millions
Fr most of new games are cash grabs
@@llunexinityRR I know it's some profit stuff but bro the cashgrabs that 12 year old makes after they beg for rr+ to make paid stuff
This video is what RecRoom needs to see, it’s not too late guys
17:25
“GoO gOo GaH gAh”
As a person who explores the hot tab every day this is very relatable 😂
it annoys me because the featured inventions/dorm skin tabs DID rotate every week with submissions (I got two inventions featured) then they were "temporarily" suspended after invention tower was discontinued and then featured custom shirts stopped after the Megan (the person reviewing the submissions) went on maternity leave and despite her returning, the shirts are yet to be rotated again
Yes, I remember that. It sucks, I agree!!
@@Tarapeutic what do you think about the dorm update?
I actually have a couple things. I wish you could take your monster anywhere and I wish there was more ink that you could use in a room from your maker pen.
Nice
5:00
"An excuse to play rec room" hit hard, very relatable.
“I don’t wanna grab my donut in the middle, the icing gets squished 😢😢” This has to be the funniest thing I’ve ever heard you say. 16:58
ahhaha well it's true 😆
Why do i hold pizza like that as well
Its the G R I P P E R
That MITM backpack would have been a good last weekly
I hate it that when I try to promote my map using events, for example, my hangout map ^Treetop-Cove, it just gets burried to the bottom of the events tab because of all the military events. Rec Room should add a tab for "New" Events so people can experience those maps.
Really takes me back to the old days Roblox with that

Awwww. I know. Boots! Of all things!
I know I haven’t commented in a LOOOONG time but,

Keep in touch, you're a really good point of contact - someone who plays the game but has intelligent things to say about it while learning to build. I appreciate your insights!!! And it was fun playing 3D Charades, thanks for joining us!
“Don’t get me started on how our last weekly challenge ever was a pair of boots. It seems actually symbolic, it’s Rec Room kicking us while we’re already down.”
SUCH A VALID QUOTE LOL!
i have to agree with you on that stuff im apart of lab team even i dont no if they listen to our advice and another annoying bug is the infinite health where someone can't be killed
YES PLS I CRIED IN MY BED BECAUSE THEY REMOVED THE WEEKLY LIKE WHY WAS EVERYBODY MAD ABOUT WEEKLYS THEN THE SMALL PERCENT WHO ACTUALY LIKR IT
I hate when I have to update Rec Room on the App Store before playing it! It’s so annoying!
I mean not gonna lie hackers are a little funny last time a saw a golden trohpy stone ball in the rec center 💀
Tara I’m one of your friends in Rec Room. My name is amused 🐻 do you think you can join me and gift me
Oh god it's brutally relatable😮
So true
my friend was the one who made the living seal and he still plays slippymcbacon is his user name unless he changed it
Wishing you the best Tara. My honest opinion is to start diversifying your RUclips content if stuff doesn't improve.
I will go down with the ship. I love this game and unless they scrap the partner program altogether, I will be here making content. I think RR will be OK. This is just the awkward adolescent years. I'm hopeful.
omg ALL OF THIS IS SO TRUE!
The other bug is when u switch outfits it changes the head size on the rec room character
Please stop using a full body avatar don’t encourage their stupid ideas 💀
Hi tarapeutic!! Epic video as always. Love your vids so much! ❤❤
Thanks so much, Josh!
When u play golden trophy or any other quest and u find a server,finally and there called
Mightyhippo

LIKE BROOOOOOOOO THEY NEVER GET IN THE SQUARE AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I was one of the people who only played because of weeklys and they were so much fun
i hate fba now cuz my head is sooooo big it used to be as same as the bean body they ruined it
Tara there also a lot of bugs in rec room like when u move far away they look like Low poly
Yes, I noticed that bug the other day!
Fba looks like roblox characters 😭
there are a lot of games that do this actually! it helps the game preform smoother because being further away from a prop/object makes it more difficult to see, so game devs make lower poly versions on purpose to help keep the game run smoothly while only making small changes :D
of course sometimes theres bugs with this system and it can switch to the low poly model even if theyre close by, hopefully it gets fixed at some point
@@Tarapeutic it doesn’t look right because the low poly messes up the rec room character gloves
I've never seen a full body look so smooth when it comes to movement.
I think they said they did a recent update where it does look smoother. I need to take some more time to analyze.
My problem with Rec Room. Is Used to be. Fun Grinding game To get your items. And maybe spend A little money here and there. And now You need rec room plus. And Up to $40 a month just to keep up with the fashion and rec room.
I think Level 50 is a weird cap, they should go to Level 100 or something! Or 99.
Yeah, me and my friends we’ve had a lot of conversations about how leveling up could be different and better
What’s soooooo annoying is when I go to a map that has a lot of inventions then it lags my game and I can’t get in rec room and I have to redownload
This issues are actually terrifying to me because some of these problems are parallel to Roblox. The biggest connection being the low effort games getting the most views. I came to Rec Room because it was like a new Roblox with more fun games like paintball and quest, so seeing it slowly change in ways that disregard the community worries me... hoping for the best!
Yikes! I'm not too familiar with Roblox but it worries me to hear they're going down a similar path potentially!
@@Tarapeutic Yea, I mean before some people literally reused roblox game thumbnails for their games in rec room. More foreshadowing? XD
And, I used code Terra
I literally had worked on a painting for like 20 hours. I did get featured in rec room creative club gallery. But I honestly don’t know if people know if it’s existence. I also got a creator bubbly. But it feels like the 20 hours went down a long and sad drain.
1:28 i thought i was the only one experiencing this 😂😂😂 yes its true it always freezes at 81 percent
Nope, I have been experiencing load screens of death for yearrrrrss !
I am hearing nothing but facts🗣️🗣️🗣️💯💯💯
*You need to cut down on the Cocaine* you talk too fast =D
The community also has a little bit of fault, becoming toxic and not as enjoyable as it was 2016-2019
ain’t gonna lie the ending with the weekly’s hurt 😢
you should host your own build comp sometime and livestream hopping through all of them and maybe the winner could earn something?
Also, build contests aren't guaranteed to be gone yet. There have been some rumors of one coming up within the year possibly.
I've seen a few of your videos now and I'm genuinely curious, why is your head always tilted backwards?
bahahaha idk maybe it's a full body thing. I feel like the spines are slightly curved. I have good posture IRL
@@Tarapeutic That's probably it, I'm enjoying the videos so far by the way, and I'm glad most rectubers like yourself are all speaking out about issues in a constructive way.
Should we pull a tf2 and boycott rec room?
Nah, I think the game needs our support now more than ever, to be honest.
@@Tarapeutic i didn't think anybody would even reply tbh but the creator them self ty you made my day also im almost to level 50
,Lately in the rec room community players have been echoing in the same sentiment about the game going downhill myself included I’ve had countless rounds with my friends And even shedded a few tears it sounds dramatic but it’s my job so too see this happening is a little depressing, PLUS CRYING IS FUN????!!! TARA ARE YOU OK?
Tara love the videos and thx for adding me back on rr keep up the good work
No problem! thanks!
Parents before: "You need to go outside and see some sun"
Parents now: "here you go timmy! Your very own ipad+vr headset+Iphone 16+ PS5+X box series X. Happy first birthday timmy!" (No offense to anyone)
You forgot Number 11: When you buy RR+, A lot of players wants to be friend with you because they want free gifts from you all time
And 12: When you accept a random friend request, That player invites you to random rooms all time and if you block it doesnt work. That player invites you again and again
Not to bring Fnaf into the mix but this somewhat reminds me of Fnaf AR special delivery.
The game had a great start of its life span and was doing well but then the devs stopped listening to the community and updated less frequently (last content update was in 2022) eventually things got so bad it shut down March 2024.
Not to scare anyone or say rec room is going to go down that same path, but it’s a very similar cycle of a good start and a downfall. (I mean most games have a low point so what do I know?) but Rec room definitely has a ways to go with things before a possible end so there is still time for them to turn around and change the game for the better.
Idk this is just me rambling on about 2 games that had a very small relation to each other and both had a small similarity with their life cycle, but from how I look at it it’s scarily close with the overview details so idk. Definitely me being a stupid player who talks too much about video games. 😅 anyways ya’ll have a great day.
A lot of good points and honestly you said it perfectly with everything that’s been going on
Hiiii Tara pls reply I’m a huge fan of you and I would love to meet u also I’m really close to level 50
Thanks Polish, hope your day is going awesome!
@@Tarapeutic it is hope your day is also fantastic!!!
I really want another level cap because like over 5-15% of players are already level 50, and I’ve been level 50 for 4 years already. But I have a theory it MIGHT come out soon since it took 4 years for them to release a new level cap, and it’s been nearly 4 years now so it’s questionable
I used to play rec room in 2021 and I miss the weekly’s, they where the only reason that me and my online friends hung out most of the time since we all wanted to get those (at times) really nice skins. And I remember seeing a gucci trashcan that we all were grinding to get. And I’ll never forget all of the memories that I made and I hope that things will get turned around. But it’s probably very very slim for that to happen.
These are amazing points and I feel like we all have first hand experience in at least 5 of these
Its so sad to see how rr turned out
There's another thing that's bothering me in Rec Room, on my new VR which is a meta quest 3, it always kicks me out of games I'm in and it's annoying, it didn't do it on my meta quest 2, and a meta quest 3 is supposed to be better than a quest 2, right? :/
1st hour gang here 🔥🔥🤫🤫
👇
Heh Loading screen of death isn't the worst I had to factory reset my pc a couple of days ago because recroom had an issue starting up and having an error. Also another thing is when i had to update recroom on steam it wouldn't be the latest version, all of my friends were on the the new version and i had to update recroom on my quest 2 as well. Those are bugs that happened to me idk if its just steam thing or not but its weird with it recroom just having problems and none of my other games on either device...
3:51 I’ve requested (commented on their videos over 40 times) to let us recolor liquids of drinks and potions so I can “have a purple liquid come out a purple potion” and so far I’ve just gotten static
I want rec room to be like the past 😭
I agree with everything you said
11 minutes Tara can you please comment I’m a bigggg fan
Thanks Fish, have a great day OK?
I feel like they need to add the streamer cam for quest 2 users
honestly it looks like it would work with the casting
I haven't watched the video yet but im hoping it includes "Players of any level calling you an aimbot hacker in paintball screen lobbies."
ahaha no, I don't play much paintball or screen mode but I can TOTALLY see that being a common thing happening!
I swear bro i get accused of aimbot all of the time in screenmode paintball ppl usually says i play on mobile or i use aimbot is bc i can hit a target from a far distance
@@LightinRR-2.0 I know. It doesn’t make any logical sense. The paint bullets move so slow that (if aimbot was possible), by the time they would reach the player they locked on to, that person would’ve already moved.
@@MethodMaster ikr
i wish we could just have the old rr back where you could search for something in the makerpen and not have a lag spike every time you click a key, i miss the old ui and how fast it was, i miss when the most expensive items were the crowns. everything is so laggy now, and thats just one of the many issues. the games fallen off hard 😥
The lag is real.
i don’t think you’ve mentioned this in the video yet (because i haven’t even watched it):
have you ever played in a room before and rec room feels the need to kick you out into your dorm or back in the login room
