This New Retro Bowl "Update" is a Joke

  • I can't believe I thought Retro Bowl was capable of making an update with some substance. I hope you all can continue this conversation in the comments because I am truly running out of hope for this game and company to start to figure it out.

    I whole heartedly agree, me personally I prefer to play the of retro bowl game over college (cause I'm too lazy to import irl teams into it plus I just prefer the NFL in general.) But there's so many things I've see from RB 25 that I would love to see base game, for example trading players. As far as I know the only way you can get players from a trade is if you get messaged, you can't go to the other teams like RB 25 and offer a trade and I feel it's a huge miss to not add to the game.

    Things we need in RBC
    1) Custom conferences
    2) Better rankings
    3) Sim games(in regular retro bowl)
    4) Defense
    5) Exhibition(in regular retro bowl)
    6) Retro Bowl 25 free
    7) Regular updates
    These are that long especially a game sponsored by NFLPA and a Retro Bowl College 26

    The simple answer is laziness. They originally said that the reason why defense wasnt added due to it being very difficult to add. Sounds reasonable to me. Now, the main reason they highlight is someone saying nobody wants to play defense? If nobody wanted to play defense, why did so many people ask if they'd add playable defense in the discord when I was there? The server couldn't even hold together a game nights section for members on occasion. Look at the other games they have released. New Star Soccer? Extremely easy to reach a point where there's nothing to do, but is built to juice as much money as possible from you. New Star Baseball? Basically just a cash grab, nothing more. Retro Bowl + RBC? Laziness to actually develop the game past a certain point. I love Retro Bowl, it still holds a big place in my heart, just because of the amount of players I remember from it, and the great times playing it, but it just screams "buy the stuff in the shop and leave", just like the other games by the company. If that discord server from the couple of years I was there showed how much effort they have, its jack squat. Its hard to say about a game I used to love, but Retro Bowl is fading out. They haven't done enough to improve the game. They haven't done enough for the fans. They haven't done enough to add new elements to the game. They haven't put enough care in the game. Now we are here, all sitting around and wondering "where did the cool stuff from the update go?" It just sucks, but honestly, the other games they made makes it feel like this should've been seen coming.
    If you managed to read through all of that mumbo jumbo, hopefully you share similar opinions.

    💯agree with you, Grego. I have been playing this game since its release on the Play Store in January 2020, and I am tired of the lack of care for these games. RB and RBC both have a big and passionate fan base and they don't seem to care at all. I almost never play RB or RBC in my free time the only times I play is when making videos and I assume that might be the same for you, and as for Retro Goal, I personally think that game is pretty good and has tons of potential but yet again New Star Games seems to not care bc the last update was in Dec last year, and tbh all I'm asking for is them to be more transparent with the future of their games so we can get an idea of the future and not get are hopes up for something they will never do, I would love for them to address everything but I highly doubt they will, but at the end of the day its up to New Star if they want to update the game or just let the game die out and lose there passionate fan base.

I’d also want to have exhibition to have games to be in neutral sites like rose bowl or conference championship games that’s what I want.
