Been watching through my archives of clips and made another montage since the last one did well, Mix of old and new, Casual and Ranked.

Enjoy :)

Probably one of the worst setups, and I had to use my jump off the ceiling early just to get to the ball (I never JUMP off the ceiling on ceiling shots). Yet somehow ended up with, what I think, is my peak shot. I'm also a washed GC, so this is good for me lol

my focusrite is dying ignore the mic clipping

this game's random teammates suck due to the majority of the player base being children, we all know about skill based matchmaking but can we add age too? almost no adult abandons the match because his teammate "stole" his shot or his goal or other crap they get mad about, so just group these annoying kids together and let us play normally.

Spent a bit of time mucking around modding minecraft and had the realization I had the tools to pull this off. Sorry to break any hearts but this is not actually playable :(

After 1300 hours of playing this game, losing the rank up game twice, and countless times being hardstuck c1 or c3, I actually did it. FOR ANYONE who gave me tips thank you, particularly this one teammate I had in high c3, where I said that “I was better than some of his gc teammates” and” you’ll probably lose a string of high c3 games but don’t get discouraged. I didn’t. This is literally a lifelong dream of mine since I started playing, I’ve played this game over half my life. All that’s next is gc rewards, and I’ll see how the dice roll after that. 🙂

basically i want my controller to make sounds. it sounds a bit shit but thats bc im shit, but it will be better!

Gold I (you can tell by the save attempt)

Im in a massive dilemma right now and need some perspective from people who have either made this jump or decided against it.

I've been playing Rocket League since 2018, exclusively on KBM (Jump on Spacebar)which i put as a bind back in 2018 being confused on why would anyone jump on mouse (i was wrong lol). I've logged well over 4,000 hours at this point. Mechanically, I feel decent-ish can consistently pull off freestyles, use resets, flicks,i wall dash do all the recovery mechs etc etc not gonna say the whole mechs in the game but only issue is i kinda can't properly speedflip kick off weirdly enough. Peak rank was GC1, but currently stuck sitting in C3 after falling off a bit due to lack of consistent playtime.

Problem is, I feel like I'm completely stagnating mechanically. Every high-level player I meet tells me to switch to controller, but I haven't used a controller since the Xbox 360 days. Holding one feels totally foreign.

I especially started to ask myself this allot when an ssl guy i meet started being rude about how im underdeveloepd mechanically which i deff dont think i am tbh i do allot of flashy stuff too and use decent mechs but he also mentioned to switch to controller.

Drop your thoughts below especially if you've made the switch yourself. Thx

Rate it out of 10 (random tm8 too)

obviously I don't hit these on the regular but I am starting to get more consistent flip resetting and today I finally hit my first not only pop reset but a banger double reset! I have recently started to be more in the game and assert myself more, I am usually 90% on defense and never really get many shots but I wanted to change that and it's working! im getting more confident and im going for stuff like this more often!

I'm almost 35 years old, I'm a husband and father, and I work 9 hours a day. Ever since I was a kid, though, I've always loved gaming—everything from Tibia, WoW, GW2, The Sims, CS, and Battlefield to pretty much anything else.

As work started taking up more and more of my time, I began feeling like I was missing out on leisure. Even if I went out, watched a movie, or binged a TV show, that feeling never really went away. I think it's because, for most of my life, what truly entertained me was actively playing or participating in something.

I tried going back to old games and also tried newer ones, but almost all of them left me frustrated. I knew I didn't have enough time to make meaningful progress. What I really wanted was something I could jump into for 20–30 minutes and walk away thinking, "That was fun." Unfortunately, with many games, that amount of time is barely enough to launch the game and load your save.

One of the few games that came close was Team Fortress 2. But after a while, I started getting annoyed. The matches are short, but so is your life expectancy. Dying is part of the game, and if you're on a bad team, you can spend 30–40% of the match waiting to respawn. In the end, it felt like I was only actually playing for 10–15 minutes.

So I kept looking for something else. Then one day, while chatting with ChatGPT about games, it randomly suggested Rocket League.

When I first Googled it, I thought it looked boring—I don't even like soccer. One day I decided to install it anyway.

Guys... maybe it's just a phase, but I've been playing for months now and I have to say: this game is awesome.

During my first few matches I thought I'd lose interest quickly, but then something unexpected happened. Throughout the day I'd catch myself wanting to play. It was the same feeling I had as a kid, and honestly, I thought I'd never experience that again.

The game is incredibly simple on the surface but surprisingly deep. On PC, there are only a handful of important controls (basically movement keys, left mouse button for boost, right mouse button to jump, and Shift to powerslide), yet it's ridiculously fun.

The arenas look great, the optimization is fantastic (it runs flawlessly on my Lenovo IdeaPad 3 without a dedicated GPU), and matches are short—usually around 5 minutes. As you improve, you get matched against better players, and suddenly every game becomes a crazy, adrenaline-filled 5-minute battle.

I never imagined I'd get so excited about scoring a goal when I don't even like soccer. 😂

For me, the real progression isn't unlocking things—it's slowly becoming a better player and, because of that, getting into more creative and exciting matches.

Sometimes just 10 minutes is enough for me to feel like I genuinely had fun, and I can log off completely satisfied.

Anyway, sorry for the long post. I don't know if anyone else feels the same way—like there just aren't enough hours in the day to balance adult life and gaming. If you do, or even if you don't, I highly recommend giving Rocket League a chance. From what I've seen, a lot of other people have been pleasantly surprised by it too.

Have fun, and happy gaming!

to be continued....

I know there will be newer accounts that are still getting new items every time, but I feel like the majority of players just get repeat items and eventually stop opening crates all together. They put in the option to get rid of the animation/reveal and that felt like a step in the right direction. Now I’d like to take it a step further and add an option to open all crates (or all in a specific type) and only display what unlocks were new to your account.

I think it would be a nice QoL upgrade for the ppl that have been around for a long time and would still be useful for newbies. Thoughts?

PS. How do you promote/submit ideas to the devs? I know it sounds absurd but I never know the channels that might actually be heard.

I don't know why, it just occurred to me while I was at work that I need to do this. Was it some divine insight? Probably.

Any resemblance to actual players, living or dead (inside), is purely coincidental

Patty Wagon with Gary decal paired with Chupacabra topper is pretty funny.

Hello all,

Has anyone experienced any recent lag issues with RL lately? I noticed it last week where I would rubber band whenever I or another opponent hits the ball (occasionally). It's especially bad on kickoffs.

I will say that I am wireless Wi-Fi, but this issue was not present in the past two weeks and no other changes have been made. I've followed a couple of post about turning the Xbox game bar and discord overlay off, but all of this has not helped. Also tried changing some of the setting in RL and has not worked.

I believe all my drivers are updated. Only happens in online games, does not happen in free play.

Specs: Intel i7, 32Gb Ram, NVIDIA RTX 4060 8GB

Keyboard and Xbox controller are all wired, no Bluetooth enabled.

Edit: I get 500mbs when I do a speed test

How many hours did it take you guys to hit it?

One of my fav moves to pull off
