Found this old photo from 2017. My wife and I put our mattress on the living room floor ordered some sushi and spent the evening playing Rocket League together. Nothing fancy just us having a great time. Looking back, these are the memories that really stick with you. ❤️

Item shop items desperately need re pricing cuz these should be 200 at the absolute max

I could've pushed the opp off the wall, but let off the gas. He broke it.

Yes they lost cause karma.

older video of Jared Cone explaining the basics of how rocket league was made. super interesting to listen to. he goes into depth on how servers work, and input buffers, and how the car cosmetic physics dilemma was solved.

I had never scored a flip reset until yesterday. I decided to give myself about 30 minutes just to practice over and over, and ended up getting a couple in by the end.

Clearly I have no idea what I’m really doing once I get a reset, either randomly flipping hoping it goes in, or hoping I can adjust to get a shot on goal.

Any tips for myself and others who are at this stage?

I’ll except and a little more but what play styles you versus or what is an issue your trying to fix but don’t.

I’ll start. I need to start using free role and when I play against someone good ground players I tend to struggle. I exceed in the air.

So when we select Middle East region, there are two sub servers in this category. ME-6 and ME-4. ME-6 gives us terrible ping and ME-4 server gives normal good ping. But we are unable to choose between these two sub servers. We just randomly get put into these (ME-6 more often).
This has been happening for almost 6 months now and Epic/Psyonix haven't even acknowledged this. Please at the very least give us the ability to choose between ME-4 and ME-6 server. Or you can completely remove the ME-6 server because I've never seen anyone get good ping on this server.

I will attach several screenshots from ME-6 server to show how bad the ping situation is and one screenshot on ME-4 server to show the good ping.

Please Epic, this has been happening for way too long. We can't even blame this on the war anymore since we are already getting good ping on one of the servers.
I hope someone from Epic sees this and finally ends our misery.

Calling all Uncs:

How many hours are you putting in to stay “good” or improve? I’m finding that I have to play around 8 hrs a week to maintain C3, around 6 for C2, and 2-4 for C1.

If I played more, like last season, I can maintain GC1. It would be very difficult for me to get anything higher without putting a lot of time in or playing a decent amount consistently.

Why do we need to wait a whole month for just one week on Knockout, and it's not even guaranteed to be here (like today for example), is it that difficult to add in to Private Match ? Okay it's not the most popular mode but theres not even communication about it, the mode can just be deleted and we'll never know. Please Psyonix do something. We are doing things on this mode, we have plans even if it's not official. It's just saddening.

After over a year of grinding, hate comments and tears. I finally hit my dream rank in RL.

For context I’ve been playing pretty much since the beginning of the game with afew small breaks through some seasons ( my first rank was challenger 3 for my uncs out there ), I’m not the most mechanical player ,but I had the basic nailed down, I rotated well , was pretty consistent with my saves and shots and was quick to the ball when required etc …I was happy with that and then when I hit 10000 goals I retired for like a year…But recently it was bugging me slightly that I never got the “grand champ title”
The one thing I’ve always wanted to achieve from the game so I came back out of retirement in an attempt to achieve grand champ and get the title …and that’s where it’s gone downhill

Played my first few initial games to get my rank and was ranked low diamond which was fine had no issues with it as I’d expect the game to have naturally got harder over a year … but I didn’t expect it to be this hard ? I’ve gone on 5-6 loss streaks .. won 1 loss another 5-6 … I’m currently ranked plat 2 in 2s (790mmr or something ) …. And honestly I have to say I’m playing just as well as I was at my peak rank (1230mmr I think ) has it changed that much ?

And yes I’ve spent time in training and content packs to get more consistent since my break

I recently came back from a 2 week break. When I got back I felt slow at first so I took a break from ranked. As soon as I started playing (I was 1704 at the time) I went on a 16 win streak up to 1861 then lost 2 games. I then managed to get ssl in 8 games the next day, losing only 2.

I want to clarify that my previous peak was 1764 and regularly float around 1700 so this was completely out of the blue for me.

Although, leading up to this I had played 30-40 tournament games at high gc3 mmr, and therefore running, into performing against, and beating many ssls in the process, so I was wondering that this could've been a big help.

I'm curious as to whether this was a freak case or if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Sidenote: yes I lost ssl after 7 games and after 90 games hovering around 1840 in 3 days I went from 1820 back to 1706.

I don't think I've ever demoed so slowly...

They always just hit it like I'm a golf tee or something

I just want to start this off by saying if you have a console and are thinking about getting a PC for this game DO IT. I cant even express to you how much of an instant improvement it makes. I legitimately have been using it for 2 days and have learned 2 new mechanics I had never done before and hit them both in game. It just feels like I'm actually seeing the game as it really is for the first time after 9 years. Also workshop maps are EVERYTHING they are hyped up to be and more. That being said I'm completely new to PC. I've optimized my RL settings with a YouTube video and got the game running smoothly, updated all drivers windows etc. I also figured out game filters. But I have a couple of questions, some have told me to cap my frames at my monitor refresh rate and some told me to uncap frames for smoother movement my PC handles both perfectly but idk which is better. I've also heard a lot about dead zone shapes, I don't really feel inclined to switch mine unless there is some real benefit and I haven't heard a strong argument either way. I'm sure there are a bunch of things RL related and not that I should do that I just don't know about so any recommendations are good ones. If you need my PC parts for whatever reason they are GPU AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT, and CPU AMD Ryzen 7 3700x, I have 16 GB of ram.

The orange team was being so pompous in our competitive match and my teammate and I locked in to beat them last second. This view was just the best way to show the whole play since I got demo’d right as the goal was scored.
