39 keys. They might drop or might not given how long black zombas have stayed at 30. I just wanted them and had they keys to spare. I rarely trade or buy anything anymore.

That's not too bad.

Dissolver was going for over 50 keys last time I checked, no way I'm risking over 50 for it and having to split the trade of keys. 50 or below and I'll bite.

Edit: Dissolver is still going for stupid prices.

It wil drop to under 50 before long I think. I dunno about these wheels. May just trade them for keys again and wait for white reeverb to drop. They are just a cleaner, larger wheels.

I hope so, people are asking for the equivalent of 90 keys for it.
Yeah....that won't stay that high for too long. Will probably take a while to hit under 50 though. The state of trading is just a pain. Too many "career traders" They try and buy up everything at lowball prices influencing other buyers to lowball and then do the same on the high end. I'm usually the one who takes a loss cause people just don't give anymore.

After the Switch performance patch and the option to always play music, I found my way back to RL after a few months of never playing. Switch performance remains iffy (handheld feels a lot better but docked still feels awful), but still, I spent my afternoon playing a bunch of Rumble/Chaos, and I have the itch to keep playing for the first time in ages.

It's well beyond a moot point by now, but In a post-Fortnite world, it's increasingly frustrating that no progression carries across platforms. If I could have a single account instead of being split between PS4, Steam and Switch, I'd be roughly 10000% more likely to actually get into seasonal play and everything. Even in the last few hours, the fact that all the seasonal currency I've earned and the few competitive matches I've played won't carry across to PS4 (my primary platform) and Steam kind of kills my desire to keep making progress on any platform.

Is it just me waiting a real long time for matches these days? It used to be almost instant.

Switch version

Having lag and online problems after the update. Either it doesn't respond at all during the matches or it ends up kicking me out. Any option setting to hope for better connection?

Holy moly, PSN download speeds are killing me tonight.

Some wild games tonight. I can't wait to get another xbone controller. I feel this steam controller is like training in the hyperbolic chamber from DBZ and when I finally get my sticks back I'll be ready for RCLS.

Am I right in thinking you can trade up to 50 keys at once without having to break the deal in to two?

There are so many scammers on the trading sites I am reluctant to trade anything over the limit of a one and done trade.

Can you name some trading sites?
I play Rocket League excessively, but never bought any keys. Just won the Decryptors and used them up, never even traded.
So I imagine there are quite a few things that are worth trading. :D

btw does somebody else has this weird bug that his rank is not shown after the match? I just have that X instead of my rank for the most time and it happened right after the update.
First time in month that I'm Diamond I and nobody can see it. :/

You can't trade items that were opened with a decrypted.

Starting to lose it. I'm not the best rank. Gold 2ish mostly. But man some of these teammates are infuriating. The majority of teammates I get go full aggro and never rotate D at all. And then they blame me when they overcommit.

Ugh.

Gold is the worst because people think they're good, but don't see the errors they are making and THINK they see the errors teammates are making. Platinum is pretty similar, but at least most have competency to make the hits and can read the field a little better and know what a rotation should look like.

They don't do shit to discourage leaving, and it's infuriating.

ballchase to c1

can't rotate with a gold/plat imo, it's free losses, just do everything yourself

*this makes you an awful teammate but teaches you how to carry and you can kinda get gc in 2s by doing this so what do I know

Just played with someone...

Stays in net. Says "I'll come out of net if you prove you're not retarded". We get scored on while he does nothing, calls me retarded, and proceeds to throw the game.

Why are these people even allowed to play? What does the report button even do?

What I'm saying is I need to stop playing with randoms. -_-

Playing ranked? What tier? I haven't had that happen in a while... but yeah that sucks. Sitting in goal the whole time doesn't help.

Any tips on how to consistently get a ball off the wall so you can air dribble it? This is what I know but I'm not having much luck (usually 1/10 attempts work)

  • Match the speed of the ball as it's rolling up the wall - I'll start boosting right before I hit/jump for that initial momentum
  • Make sure I'm not connecting with the ball on the wall with just one wheel - I should have the nose of the car fully meet the ball
  • Approach the ball with a near 90' degree angle - with a slight deviation in the direction of the enemy goal

Most of the time I'm either overshooting my position once I'm in the air, or the ball doesn't separate from the wall enough.

There are some really good custom training things that people have made. I'd try browsing through the list until you find a good one and favourite it (if you haven't done so already). I don't think you really need to boost just before you make contact (assuming you've matched the speed already), though I'm no expert at it.

This doesn't work in 2018 unless your name is literally 1 of 10 people or your opponents are trash.

Don't do this in 2018 there's better shots (redribbling it, double tapping if they dont respect you redribbling, etc)

Air dribbles usually just put you out of the play too long off walls nowadays. Talked about this with a blue name friend for like 20m and we both agreed we never do it anymore without good reason.

Sorry about the bad games Unicorn :( really bad night of rocket league on my part.
No worries. It lit a fire under my ass an I finally made the order for a new proper controller (PDP 3rd party Xbone controller). This steam controller has just been such an execution hindrance.

Here's to hoping it was like training with weight attached to my chassis/wheels and the new controller will get me back where I think I should be.

Hit me up anytime.. hopefully it won't just be a losing streak again. haha.

Someone who want to create a team on Switch? I desperately need a good team that communicates on the field. I'm a platinum on Standard and gold on solo standard.

Do you play on Switch? I do and i'm looking for solid teammates.

Does the game keep crashing for anyone else? I literally can't play, a few seconds after getting into any match (even training) the game freezes, the audio disappears, and then after a while it crashes to the home menu.

The thing is that I just got a replacement PS4 Pro from Sony, because my last one had graphical artifacts in games. This one doesn't have that issue, but now I'm starting to think they've given me one that's busted in some other way.

It doesn't happen as long as I'm on the main menu of the game though, only as soon as I enter a match.

Gonna try a few other games to make sure it's not the PS4, but yeah, this sucks.

I get more lag now than ever before and my rank is still not showing. I play on Switch.

Okay, it does eventually crash from the main menu too, just took a bit longer. So I guess this replacement Pro is fucked, just like the last one. How nice...

I haven't played for 10 days hoping that they will fix some stuff in the meantime, but the game is still a mess on the PS4. Lag, ranks are messed up, spectator mode... At least the menus are sliglty quicker.
