![]() I experienced a lot of connection issues and a few laggy matches. This being a beta, there are still quite a few problems that need to be ironed out. It certainly has that addictive "just one more game" appeal. Personally, I don't think it's quite finessed enough to match up to Rocket League's brand of pure gameplay but there are definitely plenty of favourable similarities between the two. These attributes (along with its sports mash-up concept) have led some critics to hail Disc Jam as the next Rocket League. It's one of those "easy to pick up, hard to master" types of games and it's still enjoyable even if you get defeated. Some of the advanced training techniques take a lot of practice to masterĪlthough there is quite a bit to get to grips with, you can still have a lot of fun before perfecting all of the techniques. You'll also need to practice the art of timing your button taps in order to infuse your shots with added power and speed. On top of the curl and bounce shots, you're also able to lob, slide, and use a powerful super shot and a shield that can quickly deflect the disc back onto the other side of the court. It's recommended that you go through training first because there are quite a lot of different moves and abilities to learn. The beta features one-on-one and doubles modes as well as basic and advanced training. The longer a rally goes on, the more points there are to play for making for some thrilling, heart-in-mouth moments. You score points by either flinging the disc past your opponent or making it land on their side of the court. Instead of a ball, you throw a disc (surprisingly) that can be curled or bounced off walls at tremendous speeds. □ There's no better way to celebrate a point than a synchronised butt-slapĭisc Jam can best be described as a frantic combination of air hockey and tennis with a load of special moves thrown in for good measure. │ Nothing causes more disappointment than hype so at Video Chums, we avoid hyping games prior to playing them for ourselves. So, what are you waiting for? Go download it and enjoy (after reading our hands-on impressions, of course). ![]() ![]() ![]() Written by Stephen Palmer for Previews on February 18, 2017Ī free Disc Jam beta just fizzed its way onto PS4 and the good news is that it's tons of fun. ![]()
