Tried this last night online. It kinda rocks tbh

Netcode seemed pretty good. I pinged about 30 and it certainly felt like I was an LPB The game is fun. Maybe needs a bit more balancing, I went on a huuuge killing spree with the shaft. Rockets could be a tad more bouncy too. Overal though, great. Unrealism4tehwin \o/
