Dec. 2024

I love this game, I played it a lot more when I was younger so I'm probably slightly biased. Some people view this game in a negative light, I certainly do not. Ricochet is fun, I just wish it got a 20th anniversary update, hopefully it will get a 25th anniversary update instead. Richochet is partially dead, but you generally can find at least one other person to play with, one other person is all you really need. Great to play with friends.

this game has certainly changed my life. one day I went on a date and I told my partner "ricochet is a futuristic action game that challenges your agility as well as your aim, ricochet features one-on-one and team matches played in a variety of futuristic battle arenas." I have now been married to her for 20 years. thanks gabe newell for this wonderful experience that allowed me to find true love. I would like a ricochet 2 btw so that I can have a husband alongside my wife

Goes (x)tremely hard, peak gaming. Engineers at Valve figured out real fun all the way back in 2000. It's not complicated guys, we don't need 6 thousand items, hats, champs, whatever the hell to have a good time. All we need is some 64kbps voice chat unmoderated coms and private lobbies (none of this matchmaking shit). I had a great time playing Ricochet, although a calculator and 3 command prompt windows opened on my PC as soon as I joined a public lobby. Might want to check that one out, idk if VAC is really prioritizing this game at the moment.

Feb. 2024

The worst shooter I've ever played, and your only hope of getting a match with other players is Discord servers. But, I got it for 50¢, so whatever.

there is atleast 1 person that bought this game outside of the valve complete pack. That person is dead now.
