Rocket League

[Charu]

same

[wargasm1]

I think ffr players have a huge advantage over other rocket league players because we know what it is to play a skill based game for long and get good at it. We don't get discouraged by the trials, we savour them and we know playing everyday and never giving up is key.

anyway lv 30 now wargasm1 on steam nobody added me yet and most of u didnt give a steam id.

FYI, your level has NOTHING to do with how good you actually are.

[Shadowcliff]

Uggghh my controller has not been working, the wire is fucked. Can't play. I only have like 140 hours on RL

[sickufully]

I got like 30 hours and it says I'm ranked a pro so I guess I'm pretty good...
(you'll all destroy me cause I'm shit at it but I'm good at clearing xD)
Add me: Fat Orange Cat

[Charu]

Once again, the level has NOTHING to do with how well you're doing.

It gives you an approximation of how many hours the player has played on this account (there are smurves) and it has everything to do with who you're matched with in unranked.

which is still not an indication of your actual skill in the game????????????????

also, false.
i'm not even level 40, and I'm pretty much guaranteed to be matched with at least like 1 legend player (60-73)

[Charu]

While that may or may not be true, that STILL doesn't reflect on your actual ability to pick up the controller, push buttons, rotate sticks, and hit ball

Anyone else had the chance to play Rumble yet? Thoughts?

Imo I think it's a neat addition to the game. Took a couple of matches to understand what all the effects are though. That spikey ball power-up is OP, probs gonna get nerfed.

Also, champ crates. Anyone got one yet?

Opened my first one just before and got a certified rare decal

Pretty hilarious IMO.

You get a dope set of players then man, that fucking overtime can break a clock. The sheer randomness of the powerups ensures that no one has a skill based game and it's absolute carnage.

[sickufully]

It's completely unpredictable but I think that's what I like most about it.

From the reddit - How not to grapple

[Charu]

It's pretty fun.

Spike seriously either needs to go or nerfed so that other powerups can disrupt it (like power glove, plunger, ice, grappling hook.)

Or hell, make the driver slower so the max boost speed is the same as normal speed. Like once I see it deployed, nothing can stop it unless you have a boot kick or just get really good at judging how the guy is going to rotate the ball as he aerials.

[YoshL]

guy looks like he was straight up ballchasing. on the same side of the ball as all 3 orange players, and further away from it, and decides not going straight back to goal is the best option

also his aerial at the beginning sucked

gg noob

Pretty much 95% of players.

Like this guy?

[Charu]

Seems more of a shot of faith than anything. Because if that guy were to position the ball where the plunger would pull to his front, then it would've still gone in.

Still pretty sick though

Haven't checked out Rumble yet but I did get a Champ crate with shows two car bodies and Pixel Fire boost in there besides the other 9 items and I want to open it but can't haha.

[Charu]

Just be prepared for RNG if you do open it. All the things you see inside the crate don't are just possibilities.

Starting to have second thoughts on the crates. I thought they were "okay" but now that I know it's all RNG'd upon opening. Eeeeeeh... seems kind of silly and slightly scummy.

If only because the crates contain DLC cars, haha.

[YoshL]

theyre using it to support rlcs so w/e

[Charu]

I get that and I think that's really neat.

But idk, I think the crate thing should mostly for cosmetics and not for DLC cars is all, lol.
