Fall Guys (PC/PS4) The BR to end all BR

Had my 2nd round of games tonight and won one. My joypad was dripping in sweat after it :pac:

On the egg one, i just spent the whole match with my team taking eggs off me, absolute eejits.

This is on PS Plus at the moment with COD:2. Looks like a good month and i'll be downloading this. Seems like a good laugh

Can't get past slime climb, can't for the life of me cross that second beam, always bottle it. 4 or 5 attempts with no joy. Very few seem to qualify through it so mastering that would go a long way to actually winning a game.

I despise the tag tail events. Players on your own team robbing your tail drives me insane.

I like the football ones although they shouldn't be possible with uneven numbers. So stupid.

Yet to get a win either although it says I've 1 but don't remember it.

Its funny though, I've played a few of the football ones where I've been on a team with fewer players and still manage to win. Even a game of the proper football one last night where it was our team of 6 vs 7, we won 5-1. Uneven team games shouldn't be possible, but they're also not that much harder.

Also, you might have gotten a crown as a reward for levelling up rather than winning. Every few levels the reward is a crown.

I quite like the invisible path one. It's gas having a ton of players on one square, everyone afraid to try the next one and pushing & shoving players onto surrounding squares.

That's it so, thanks for clearing that up.

The see-saw one is probably the most enjoyable, if you start near the front you've a great chance of getting through. Anywhere near the back and you're in the lap of the gods.

I hated the see-saw one for the first few sessions, just couldn't get with it. Then someone on here gave a couple tips, one being to dive onto platforms that were tipped quite a bit, it can stop you sliding off if timed right - and it's been working, I get through every time on that one now and kinda like it

Playing this a bit now as well. The push the ball one is great crack. At least twice I've qualified not because we pushed the ball fastest but because we stile another teams ball and got brought it back up to the top of the slope.

Would this still be free when it goes off PSN? Seems to be a fairly harmless set up with costumes etc

I can't believe people actually cheat on this game, how sad do you have to be? https://www.polygon.com/2020/8/10/21361802/fall-guys-ultimate-knockout-cheats-hacks-speed-flying-playstation-plus-steam-mediatonic

Actually what am I saying, it's not surprising at all really. Many players these days are nothing but stat whores, they don't care about the experience they just want to brag to their mates that they have more points/crowns/wins

One of the vids on there is hilarious, guy using a speed hack, gets to the crown long before the rest then fails 3 times to grab it and loses lol. Hacking and still losing ... pathetic I would rather never get a win than be that guy

yeah ive had about three games with speed hackers and only one of them did the hacker actually win lol

Always good to see cheaters with egg on their face, there should be a way to direct report them like in other games [world of tanks is one I recall] I don't play it anymore but I remember it was riddled with cheaters at one time [aiming and no re-load hacks, using bots to enter multiple battles, team killing etc - team damage was eventually removed from that game] You could click on their profile and report, maybe the FG team will implement something like this, they say they are looking into it.

Trouble is, they're probably winning more than losing overall, games that require speed only like the tail chase [who's going to catch them?] or what if they can just sprint across the hex path level? They're going to be straight across the see-saw level too [that's never a final round at least] - but even when they fail on end, they're taking legit player's place, they're going to get to more finals than they normally would

In such a fun, party type game you'd have to be seriously terrible to want to cheat. I mean, I'm not very good at it, can get to the final a lot of the time but never win - won't stop me trying, but it'll certainly not make me want to cheat

Jump Showdown finale level coming back into rotation after patching out an exploit:

More levels coming too by the sound of it!

If they are bringing in bigger parties, it should be for modes separate to the main one. It'll only end in griefing if parties of 8 or so are allowed in the main game, with most of the party griefing the others to ensure someone in their party wins. So maybe a party v party mode would suit, but for the main modes it should stay separate, imo.

Closest round ever of Royal Fumble just now. Two of us flanked the guy with the tail as he was being chased by others, final second, I grabbed tail off him and another guy grabbed tail off me, but it must have happened a millisecond after the clock hit zero because it gave me the win. Though I have heard it's possible to get a draw (heard of it happening on Fall Mountain between two guys in the same party), so perhaps he also got the win.

Round before that was Fall Ball. 6 players on each team. Finished 14-0 to us. We got about 6 goals really quickly so three of them ended up leaving. We didn't do anything particularly different to score so fast, just a bit of luck.

Just won another Fall Ball 9-0. How are people so bad at this?

3 crowns tonight. Two Royal Fumbles and a Fall Mountain. Would have been 4 but f*cked up a jump on Hexagone.

Just had my first game of the football one (is that fall ball?). What a load of Bollox. I was clear with the ball about to score and one of my own guys knocked out away from me and it went wide. Lost 6-1. Never knew the egg was for 5 goals

Anyone else almost always on the one colour in team games? 9/10 times I'm yellow, the other 1/10 blue. Don't think I've ever been red or green team.

Been yellow every time in the egg basket, have only gotten to play footy one time - I'd much rather that than the eggs tbh.

The eggs is the worst

Actually managed to win a couple of them last night after. I've found the best strat for me at least, is after the eggs are gone from center, just leg it to one of the other colour baskets and start chucking their out. Don't waste time trying to jump out with one, just chuck loads out, has them scrambling to defend and you only need a half awake team to mind your basket and you're good. Trying to defend is the toughest, be the aggressor.

I find I log in now and just do 2-3 rounds, it is wearing a little thin already but I expected that from the start. It is that type of game, jump in, quick buzz, back to something deeper - ended up in the Witcher 3 for 3 hrs instead

4 crowns tonight, including 3 in a row. All on Fall Mountain. People are still timing their jumps completely wrong.

solo mode would be boring imo, half the fun is is watching eejits mess up and knocking people into slime:p also half the difficulty is the other players around you game would be way to easy on your own and be fairly pointless imo

The door dash one is f*cking chaos. Even Whirlygig, I almost never get hit by the spinning bars, but get regularly knocked over by others who have gotten hit by them.

But I can see PM's point too that some of the race ones could be prime for a time-trial type of mode, or even harder solo versions of Block Party or the rotating wheels ones.

I'd veer more towards the 'Keep It Simple, Stupid' way of thinking though. Local and online split-screen are the only modes they need to add. Aside from that, just keep adding new levels and modifying existing ones because some of the races are getting to the point where after playing them a few times, you know what routes to take and how to avoid dangers, so they should vary them up a bit. The most challenging part of Fall Mountain now is just timing the jump for the crown. The actual race once you've played it a few times, you'd have to be horribly unlucky to be knocked down by anything.

If anything they could make Slime Climb a final round with faster-rising slime. First to reach the crown (or last not to fall into the slime) wins.

Needs easily a 100 levels tho.

Maybe just me, but I see the new outfits and it's like 'cool' the first time, then it's more 'meh' when you see everyone's got the same and I feel like going back to basic skin just to be different I certainly wouldn't ever pay a cent for a costume in a game
