Ignore shitters who complain and continue advancing your skills while being mindful of where the ball is and not chasing it too much, but instead staying back a bit and only going for shots you feel certain you will connect with properly.

When faggots start complaining before even a minute has gone by I just tell them to quit complaining and play the fucking game. Either that or tell them to fuck off and find a friend to play with who will listen to their bitching and complaining.

I'm gold in duels and 2v2, but I don't complain like a little bitch when I'm with a rookie in a random lobby. You have no right to complain if you decide to play with randos, you get what you deserve for not adding someone who you play well with and teaming up.

Watching people play and trying to replicate their techniques is the best way to learn how to drive your car. You either can save replays of your matches, or watch someone on Youtube/Twitch if you don't have an intense hatred of LPers/streamers

>>319332161
Yeah, find a streamer who doesn't do super crazy shit all the time that you will be able to replicate. Then you can at least see what kinds of angles you can score from or be scored on from.

At low level though do the pro and rookie striker training. If you can shoot on target and don't drive down your teammates backs you will progress really quickly.

Nigga, you can get 100% boost or score an easy goal if the ball dosn't fly away. Yet niggers always go for the 100% boost because that allows dem sick flying 420 shots.

I'm still level 11, played like 15 matches

>I'm always the player with the biggest score in my team
>it's ridiculous cause I have like 800 score and the other two have less than 200

But I recently realized the secret formula to win this game, you just have to stay between your own goal and the ball so that you can always kick it back to the opponent's side if it ever goes to your direction. And you can just let your two dumb teammates do the chase-the-ball minigame. Since then my score has been the lowest, but the ball never gets even close to my goal and I end up winning way more matches. Pretty nice.

I try them, but you do not need to use a trick shot every time the ball comes your way, sometimes you just need to hit the ball normally. Learning when to use them properly is the key.

Learn how to switch from reverse into forward (without losing momentum) by doing a handbrake swerve and throwing the stick in the opposite direction.

Get comfortable going backwards and recognize when it will be better to take off in reverse. Get in the habit of doing backflip speed boosts and switching to forward via the above method or jumping & spinning.

You can control the rotation of your car in the air by holding down Square/X. Get this down so you can always land on all 4 wheels. Simple but super helpful.

Remember that the only way to gain height with a double jump is to not hold any direction. I used to do front flips on accident all the time until I made an effort to get double jumps down.

On the other team's side of the field, never go for the ball when it's in the corner. Let them hit it to you so you can make a shot. If no one else is there but you see a teammate coming, you can try hitting it against the corner to pass it to them.

I always take over the position of goalie when I start closest to the goal, or when the ball is heading toward my team's side and I'm the first one over there. At the very least, if you start defending the goal, don't leave your position until the ball is a safe distance away, because others might assume you're still guarding and not watch the goal.

>>319329754

It depends. The game is almost entirely about positioning.

The two most likely directions the ball will go are towards/following a wall or towards your/their goal (usually diagonally unless at very close range). With that in mind and determining the direction of the ball, position yourself in a likely place to receive the ball, then knock it in to their net. Never chase, only receive after an attempt on goal or interception.

The games really simple really. Once you get good with the rocket you can do some amazing goals/saves that are way easier then they look to pull off.

It really isn't about calling out, "I got it" or "Defending." I'm Gold 2 in doubles despite rarely playing it (there's literally only one person I ever play doubles with). The key to doubles is developing a natural rotation. One person goes in for a strike, the other hangs back, and you rotate. It happens really fast so you can't really be calling it out with quick commands. If playing with randoms, if they're hanging back go for the kill and if they're heading in, hang back. Play off of them, don't expect them to play off of you. Always assume the person on your team is a retarded piece of shit, because that tends to be the case. Successfully playing with randoms (I love me some solo standard) is less about raw skill and more about filling whatever gap those retards are leaving.

Staying in the goal all game is one of the worst things you can do in every mode except chaos.

Real soccer goalies require lateral movement. Cars don't have lateral movement.

>>319348140
I solo queue a lot, but it does feel quite meaningless after I started doubling with a friend.

>>319348736

No it wouldnt, its chaos in 4v4 already, its literally called chaos mode too.

The new map, being larger, could probably support 5v5 or 6v6. Standard map would be dumb as shit for those team sizes though.

Is it possible to get good with keyboard/mouse? I feel like the digital controls arent precise enough, but playing with a controller is like trying to play a guitar left handed to me.

>>
>>319349296
I'm sorry, what?
Do you have trouble using a controller on every game or something?
>>
>>319349421
ok, for instance, at kickoff. When I approach the ball, its impossible to make concise steering adjustments, because it oversteers a little in every tap of a or d. So I have to be constantly taping left and right to adjust and hope that Im hitting the ball where I want.

How have you gotten past the impreciseness of digital controls?
>>
>>319349296
I take offense to this, not only because I play with kb/mouse but because I'm left handed
>>
>>319349670
I dunno. I guess it's muscle memory.

I also do some sort of different kick off where I just boost roll to the ball and slight adjust to the left/right to touch the ball miliseconds earlier before the opponent.
>>
>>319349930
>>319349703
either way, Im relieved that I just suck. I was afraid I might not be able to get much better without making the switch.

One of the top players hit the max rank of "Rocketeer" recently, after clocking in about 1500 hours on the game.

The game has been out for 153 days.

He has 10 hours of free time to devote to Rocket League EVERY DAY

>How do I git gud?

Just play a whole lot of matches and get a feel for the game, that's how you get good in any game.

Try not doing a lot of aerials early on, since you'll be most likely missing and exposing your team. Especially in random matches, this can prove to be fatal since people don't guard much.
>>
There should really be hud indicators to show how close your teammates are when they are not visible on your screen since no quick commands where you can tell your teammates where you are. I know many times I thought I had a good shot, but my teammate had a better shot than I did and I fucked us up.
>>
>>319347339
It's really because most people are too focused on the match to make non-tactical commentary. All the talking happens on replays because you don't need to worry about playing the game at that moment

I always make sure to inform people when they make sick-ass saves though, teammate or not
>>

>how do you have fun?

>>
>>319354585
if you have thin skin, going for saves is just asking for trouble. almost no one will commend you for a good save, and a whole lot of guys will lash out on you if you miss.

where the fuck were they, though. at least I read the game well enough to get myself in a good position to try
>>
>>319335782
I hate this faggots. But the ones I hate more, even though they do no harm to me most of the time, are the fuckers that stay in the fucking goal all the time. Jesus christ, did you buy the game to sit doing nothing?

>>319355276
It doesn't help that from a lot of desperate dashes, trying to block a shot on goal as a last ditch involves making a wild shot that could make it worse, which you'll inevitably be given shit about.
>>
>>319355373
Guess you have a point, I should use that button more often. I often forget about those features in the heat of the moment. Guess that is what separates the shit from the gold

players like him are the worst part of rocket league. so many spergs out there who never played a team game in their lives and think the game is over when you get a goal or two scored on you. part of why i stopped playing cs:go competitive. rocket league is still a pretty great game and easy to pick up although the ball physics aren't the most intuitive like the rest of the game is.

no, only ranked matches are consistent enough to get good. in unranked everyone is just ballchasing and leaving the game.

and when retards start voting for forfeit, dont vote, even when they are two against one. those retards who give up on games in bronze league will always be losers.
