it looks like another Burger King game
I looked at some gameplay of this and it looked surprisingly entertaining
Sounds simple in theory but is probably hard in practise. I love games like that, and this is probably one where you can spend 100s of hours and still be improving. Saw a video of some great shots and now im definitely picking it up some time soon.
http://www.gfycat.com/GratefulSlimyAffenpinscherNow that is a stop. Almost managed one of them on Saturday but instead it hit the post hit a teammate and went in anyway.
..and the mouse and keyboard controls are also quite good.
Well, you have to leave some games with 300 ping servers. And some games you get 2v3 from start, even in ranked. As for now its definitely needed.
Unfortunately a good chunk of the playerbase seems to be colorblind and will hit the ball regardless of which goal it heads for. Fortunately these people fade away in ranked games towards the 500 mark.
Also leaving before the last minute is shameful. Leaving at the last 20 seconds to not get a loss is cool tho. I keep getting tons of assists, i guess im the support, im always the support. :(
wait...you don't get the loss if you leave the last 20 seconds? hope they really change this thing and the possibility to rejoin the match in the case you dc or crashed.
i'm ranked around 850 in duo and solo 3v3 but still i can see awful things done by teammates (and sometimes by be obv :D)
Team ranked is coming soon

You know when your parents try to play video games with you as a kid and they start moving their body with the controller like it would help, well thats me playing this game. Especially my head starts leaning towards the direction the ball is when its on the very edge of the ball that you hit.
Watching really good players do their thing is pretty neat. Then again theyve been playing since the previous game, so it makes sense how insanely good they are. Such accuracy, wow, many aerials, amaze.
Also different models have slightly different hitboxes. Not sure what to think of this.
Final game of MLG Rocket LeagueEpic stuff. And i thought i was starting to get good at the game cause i hit like 1 aerial once :D.

Wow, is it really that hard? Never played it yet.
Hitting it isnt that big of a deal, htiting it towards the goal is pretty tough.
Wow, is it really that hard? Never played it yet.The learning curve is really great and you get better as you get better opposition. What i meant by " aerials" was those really high - in the -sky balls that you can play by jumping and then using your boost to fly up, i tend to miss them all the time.
I played a lot when the game was released and I got myself to nearly 1000 rating in 2 vs 2 ranked, but apparently people got a lot better in the past weeks while I did not play. I am facing veterans exclusively now while I am level 26, and I am usually the weak link. I have been forced to practice aerials a lot and play scrub tier 3 vs 3 so I don't piss people off. I lost a bit of rating now and I think I'm also getting a bit better, but damn, being overrated blows.
That's just about every competitive game. You drop it for a bit, take a pause and you're fuked by people who are able to constantly practice. Time devoted is everything boys, well coupled with talent that reduces time to achieve a certain skill level, but still.
New update out, new ranking system kind of, put me at Gold 1 in all but solo duel. Maybe it isnt changed, just divided into more ranks... anyways, winning 3 games each giving me like 3 score, then losing 2 and getting -11 from each, sometimes shit is just bull.played a bit yesterday and noticed that my buddies have a plus or minus 1 point of difference when it comes to winnin gor losing. i am gold 1 and they are like one bronze and silver.
Really? 90% of my randomly assigned teammates grasp the concept of rotational positioning, if they don't it is usually a quick loss.
The only time I refuse to rotate positions is when I'm in the goal on defense and then another player moves in to replace me. Like wtf? Just go after the ball instead of using up all your boost just to cross half the field and sit in goal boost-less. I'm a fairly good goalie and I sure as heck ain't gonna yield that position over to some scrub without boost (since he won't be able to block any high shots). He could have challenged the players in control of the ball by the time he got to goal, but nope, for some reason he felt the need to make us all rotate around... For that reason I also disagree with the "Defense" part of that diagram. It should show 1 guy returning to goal (perhaps the first guy that gets back which should still be the same position #1 from offense, unless he misses the ball taking a shot and ends up upside down in their goal, without boost, etc.) and then the 2nd and 3rd players falling back to challenge the ball, with the 2nd guy going straight to the corner/where the ball is and the other guy moving in to back him up should he fail. Having people keep rotating out of goal just wastes time and boost (or momentum if you're out of boost and just somersaulting around) imo.Scrub, thats bad play from you. You shouldn't even be in that goal anymore. If you see a teammate returning from behind the ball while you are in goal, you should immediately move out and play the ball, leave the goal to him. This will give him time to turn and be ready for a good approach should you lose the ball. Your strategy is waiting for him to turn and play the ball. This gives your team half as many chances to play in the same time.
your teammate is returning to goal, there is no way he is in a better position to play the ball than you.should be happening. He can fall back to the corner/towards the ball instead of running right down the center to the goal, where someone already is. He doesn't need to fall back, get in the goal, turn around, and then challenge the ball. He can fall back diagonally to the corner where he'll be facing the incoming play just as much as if he was at the goal then turned 90 degrees.
Bro, have you ever even playedNo it is not at all the same is Rocket League. A key difference is that cars can only hit the ball hard in the direction they are going, therefore by definition facing the direction where you want to go (the enemy goal) is optimal for playing the ball. There is no rotational gameplay in real football, because you can switch directions, pass and control the ball more. The goalie is rarely not in the goal, because unlike Rocket League, the goalie is never best suited to go onto the offensive.soccerfootball? If for some reason the goalie is not in the goal, then the first guy that is available hops on into goal (maybe more guys if possible since the goals are huge af compared to the goals in rocket league). Meanwhile, everyone else available gets into position to either mess with the guy holding the ball or to cut off his passing/shooting options. You don't have people rotating in and out of the goal. Same in rocket league. There is no reason this:should be happening. He can fall back to the corner/towards the ball instead of running right down the center to the goal, where someone already is. He doesn't need to fall back, get in the goal, turn around, and then challenge the ball. He can fall back diagonally to the corner where he'll be facing the incoming play just as much as if he was at the goal then turned 90 degrees.
Why am I almost systematically getting almost double the ranking points for a win compared to what I lose from a loss? This doesn't make any sense.maybe cause you are winning/losing against players with higher mmr , the time you lose against lower ranking palyers you cri :(
Well then I never, ever played against weaker players lol. And I can guarantee some of the guys I played were really awful. I never lost more than 7 points and never gained less than 9 except when some people quit.
I got a friend that got obsessed with the game lol.
well , if he starts singing RL song under the shower , wearing a pirate's hat and farting rainbows , yes , it's time to get worried.
Thank goodness I only play on console then.
But hey, they recently added in Achievement Hunter, Rooster Teeth, and Funhaus flags. If you know who those groups are you're the best :3

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/rocket-league-introduces-new-maps-through-rocket-l/1100-6434403/
New maps that differ more than just boostpad placements, looks awesome.
Played against 3 scrubs, luckily for them i was raping their mums so i couldnt play properly, then again met them the next round (srsly what are the chances) and luckily for them i was raping their fathers.
Ugh, wasteland blows. Hopefully it doesn't show up too often in the rotation. Can't wait to try out the new maps though, they show some promise.
It does play quite often, i used to dislike it but now that i played it some more i actually really enjoy the variety. It adds a lot of flavour. I was expecting a ton of hate on reddit, but it seems like the majority is in the same boat as me, many disliked it at first but came to enjoy it more now, others enjoyed it from the start. Some dislike having maps that differ from the default concept which is legit i guess, but i think that would get pretty boring after a while. Im already really appreciating new maps, and its only been a couple of months so.
Also the ranks are weird, its basically the same, superstar is gold 3 so i got put where i was last time, but now i cant see my precise rating, so i cant sense any progression whatsoever.
I just don't care for the lack of aerial opportunities in wasteland. There are some, but with the larger stage there just aren't as many, in my brief experience with it anyways. It also favors a defensive play style as long shots are far more punishing. Hopefully it won't be as bad when I'm playing it with other guys in ranked who'll be more inclined to play well than the scrubs in casual mode. I've heard that the lack of noticeable progression is really infuriating to some players, and I can definitely appreciate that argument. Do you have any links or knowledge of any correlation between the old ranking system and the new? You said that superstar is gold 3... did you just assume that since it is the 2nd highest rank achievable? I thought they added more possible ranks in this season, but I could be wrong as I'm admittedly not following it too closely.
FUCK me, i keep having the mic on despite having disabled EVERYTHING in game, and people hear me continuously, i feel like naked. they hear me singing, swearing and laughing, and i have no idea how to fix it :CI think you have the same problem in the Vanguard teamspeak

Check in your audio profiles and set-up, basically go into everything that is named "audio" in your control panel, and right-click every audio related software at the bottom right of your screen. You should deactivate anything that looks like it overrides your microphone settings.
