I've played the ice hockey a few times. I like ice hockey on its own but as Rocket League gameplay it feels kind of lifeless. I guess it's the lack of bounce. Like you don't even have to be good, if the puck is already against the side you just have to hit it head on fast enough and it'll slide along the wall straight to the net and go in after hitting the far post.

Hoops is more fun that that but I still don't play it much mainly because of the 2v2 limitation. I don't know why it's stuck on that when the offline version has up to 4 like the standard mode. I saved the replay of my first 2 ever games of it they day it came out. The first I won 4-0 scoring all 4 goals.

I still prefer to play the standard football mode but with my air game being my biggest weakness I enjoy hoops for how much it relies on aerial hits if you don't want a low scoring game. I still can't do it every time but it feels rewarding when you do a flying hit and score a one touch goal on the kick off.

Its good unless you have a team mate who quits out on you as you have to finish the game alone.  No AI and no replacements

That I could see being a big problem, there are way too many players on this game who quit at the drop of a hat. You can be 1-0 down with over half the match to go and they'll leave you like we won't come back. It's even worse when you remember you get 750xp just for completing a match.

Is there any penalty for losing in ranked? Unless you have points taken away or something I can't imagine why you'd just quit and screw over your team rather than finish it and take a loss.

Well you move up and down the rankings. So losses do count and move you down but so does writing out anyway.
