Rocket League: The Official Thread

Welcome to the official (!) thread of Rocket League.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game, it’s essentially 1v1-4v4 soccer with a giant ball and RC cars.

And as of this writing, it’s free with Playstation Plus on PS4. RL is also available on Steam.

Here’s a match I played with Joezorz

Dont suck or be too desperate to hit the ball, know positioning and how to play the bounces pls.

Lol this game displays thirst so easily. You can tell when theres a team of bad kids cuz they all go for the ball like its an asian chick. At all cost even if its to send the ball in the wrong direction! Its so easy to sit midfield and wait for them to set you up as they go for the ball with all their hearts and pop it infront of their net lol you just come in and poke it in.

Game is not only mad hype but mad fun too. Add me up psn: ihollowbladei

just started playing yesterday.

i dont play with mic, cause i get so frustrated w idiots who hit it back into our zone or dont know how to play defense and clear the ball lol

I know right like if you stay behind the ball you aint defending nothing. Un like real soccer your car aint go no feet… Or thumbs.

My fav is when the ball is mid feild and the guy own goals by pushing it down the entire feild into his own net… Defense at its best… Thirst- never quenched

have any of you guys done season mode

season modes aight, too easy. the online is the real game for me

I’d like to see fewer AI players, going forward. The way they are integrated is awesome but they decide too many matches.

Fair trade-off for disconnecting players not ending games, however.

i want more car models and more paint.

I think we’re getting dlc already in a few weeks

Guys let me know how trash I am . tips as well

Idk i find the ai to be incredibly cheap. One mistake and they snipe the ball into your net at the most retarded angles. They need to tone them down just a tad. The ai usually carries the other team once a player leaves. You need to be very careful and take less risks

I watched the first match. You seem to chase the ball like a 5 year old playing soccer. No reason behind why your chasing the ball other than you have been told you need to hit it doesnt matter the direction you chase that ball to kick it.

Take a step back you dont HAVE to be on the ball at all times to win. Keep two things in mind, if the ball is goong in the direction of your net and you are chasing it odds are you are not defending well plus if you do touch it, its going in the wrong direction anyways wether you touch it or an oponent. 90% of the time pass by the ball and make sure you are actually defending your net. If you do it the ball it will go in the direction you want.

There was a situation where you hit the ball just by the post, you chased that ball with the thirst of a 16 year old vergin. The ball was gonna bounce off the wall and be perfectly set up for a goal. The oponent had to act in order to get the ball out. Let them defend (and fail since most people myself included cant play off the wall.) and punish by settig up your car to get an easy goal.

Lesson to lean stop chasing so much and start predicting. Alot of soccer is about predicting where the ball will go even more so in rocket league since the cars and only go forwards and backwards. If you can set up to where you can predict the ball will be going you will control the game much more. :slight_smile:
Im no pro, but this is what i have learned so far and its been real good to me.

Ps: also learn to play goalie, your team will wana hug you for it.

hmm noted. Thanks need to practice

I get 3v3 online most of the time, 4v4 is very chaotic.
