Everything about rocket league is perfect:
>the gameplay
>the graphics
>the soundtrack
what? it's casual as fuck
even more casual than fifa
>>333593891
It's fun to play anon
What games are fun to you?
>>333593962
oh, you're a "fun" shitposter
nevermind I almost took this thread seriously
>>333593962
>having fun with games
this is /v/ anon
>>333594006
>saying games are fun is shitposting
You need to leave /v/ for a bit. Open a window. Get some fresh air in.
>>333593891
Ah, let me guess.
CS:GO or Quake were the pinnacle of PVP games?
>>333593891
>being easy to pick up and play is bad
>being this jaded
You're a souls fanboy aren't you?
Fucking RNG the game. Literally zero interest in playing it ever.
>>333594279
Wait what? There's literally zero RNG involved. Fuck are you talking about?
>>333594279
>RNG
>In a physics based game
nigga u dum
>the soundtrack
You mean the one that plays for the whopping thirty seconds you spend in the main menu while looking for a game
GODDAMN IT LET ME PLAY THE SOUNDTRACK INGAME
>>333594371
But anon the immersion
>>333594371
>not listening to eurobeat while playing
>>333593657
How do Iget good?
>>333594547
hang around the middle and wait for tap ins
>>333593657
It's fun with friends but it got old quickly
>>333594547
Play the training levels, especially the higher-difficulty ones.
Experiment with new things in games one at a time. When you feel comfortable with one skill try a new one to hone.
>>333593657
is the game any good
>>333594547
2v2 ranked with a mate
>>333593657
Right so get back to playing your piece of shit game, nobody fucking cares
>play tutorial
>see basically all content in the game in 5 minutes
>b..but it's fun!
Fuck off.
>>333594752
It's pretty fun, not sure if you'll grow tired of it after playing for a while though
I'm going to buy it if it goes on sale
It's a fun game desu, there's not much to complain about
>super deep and emotional complex cinematic next gen expierence
>14 hours played
>super casual "ITS FIFA BUT WITH CARS TOTALLY BLAND AND SHIT"
>300 hours played
Are we on /lit/ ?
>>333593657
>the physics
(fix soon, with the basketball update)
>people actually believe it's easy to play and hard to master
>hard to master
>>333594803
My mate fucking sucks
>hard to master
its literally a somehow more casual version of fifa with cars lmao
>>333594340
it feels like an RNG game to a first time player, I definitely thought that as well. It takes time to appreciate the skill involved and how predictable the ball bounces are.
>>333595746
>>333595834
>implying
have you even tried it?
>>333593657
>soundtrack
>no music when you're in a match
I listen to my music when I play m8.
>>333595913
It's a laughing girl shitposter, he probably never touched a videogame in his life.
>>333593657
The camera is aids (Watch any "Pro" player and theyre constantly wrestling between 2 camera settings)
The lack of a mini map is stupid
The netcode is bad
The hitboxes and turning circles being different from car to car make it unbalanced
The random spawns are stupid
...
One example i want to give of the game not being competetive because of the hitboxes and the netcode
If you rng a spawn were you get the head on start
If you both drive at the ball in the center
You will reach it at the same time
And then the variable is latency
So the player that lags the most will hit it towards the goal with no way of defending
If you pick a car with a sloped frontand get that spawn and live in brazil its a free goal everytime
How is that competetive?
Its a competetive game by nature because its asking you to win to have fun
But when the structure of the game doesnt hold up despite it being barebones as fuck
Its pointless
People will reply to this telling me im too picky
But theres nothing in the game
Your a car hitting a ball
If im picking out bad bits in that
Its the whole fucking game
>>333596118
the skill cap can be reached in about 2 hours of play
the whole community will be adhd kids thinking they're gona make mad dolla because they're competent at a video game like their favorite twitch streamer
>>333596203
rank?
inb4 grand champion lmao
>>333593657
Theres a reason the pro scene is oversaturated
And theres no dominant korean team wrecking shit
Its too fucking easy
Theres no skill
You cant outplay
You just have to try and positively influence a physics simulation that lags
>>333596118
Wait so you're saying that the game is bad because you can't win with high ping?
>>333594547
i didnt get good till i put alot of hours in and swapped to a xbox one gamepad.
Gotta tweak the fov and camera settings too mate.
>>333596309
all star familia.
>>333596369
Im saying, in a game with very few variable
Your meant to make it a simulation predicting every future outcome
And then realtime it should be just picking the correct futures
Like fighting games
Not this dumb floaty
Oh it might go this way
But then a brazillian might be 2 seconds behind so we can change our mind
>>333594371
And they remove that old very nice theme at start of the game and replaced for some dubstep like shit.
>>333596484
or counterstrike
or league of legends
oh wait theyre games that require actual skill xD
>>333594752
Yes, playing it since last winter every day and it's still fun
>>333596484
What the fuck are you even saying.
>>333596537
Pretty certain it's still there, you can cycle them.
>>333593657
ITT REDDIT THE GAME
>>333595191
Oh dear. Someone's shit
>>333596619
look up netcode for street fighter 4 or 5 or skull girls, or league of legends or counter strike
then look up rocket leagues netcode
>>333594062
have you EVER been on /v/?
>>333596619
No you can't. They removed it completely
>shitposters are mad they didn't git gud & try to hate on RL because of things like the soundtrack or "RNG" or "funposting"
ITT we have people bitching about rocket league for no reason other than the fact they are absolutely terrible at it
>>333596712
one is amateurish latency adjustment
all the others are real time simulations
>>333593891
Just because it's casual doesn't mean it's bad. In fact it's one of the best casual games I've played.
Rocket League is, in it's simplicity, very well designed and it really shows that these guys knew what they were doing with this game.
No bullshit mechanics, no P2W, no weapons or other unnecessary mechanics that distort the gameplay, just football/soccer with cars and a mix of skill and luck. Nothing else.
It's not the greatest game ever done by any means, but personally it's the only sports game I can have a lot of fun with these days.
>>333595746
Learning how to rocket boost in the air to score reliably is not easy and it gives you a huge advantage if the other team doesn't do it.
>>333593657
Welcome to /v/ 6 months ago.
>>333596613
that gif is fucking creepy man
>>333596774
>Very well designed
They literally copy pasted their terrible ps3 game that sold no copies which was a copy pasted unreal mod that nobody liked or played
Then paid millions in advertisement and gave it away free to everyone on ps4 xD
It barely made any money because they just wanted to make a name for themselves
Turns out buying fame doesnt work because your still producing trash and while the young uns will lap up the free meal today
10 years down the line they will be educated and you will still be a hack
>weebs shit on FIFA
>but cream all over what is basically FIFA with 5 players per team and less depth
lmao
>>333596537
Fucking this. Had a nice theme ages ago, they patched in some fucking awful songs which has absolutely wrecked the soundtrack. Anyone who likes that shit is fucking wrong
>>333596774
>Pressing a button and steering is the highest skill curve
Holy shit
i take it back
must take you years of practice
>>333596940
>It barely made any money
The game made $70 million revenue as of Feb this year
I love the game but that soundtrack is GARBAGE. It's for 14 year olds.
>>333596940
Why are you so mad about Car Football
>>333596968
I prefer fifa desu.
>>333597035
Im made at people that like it
This game has existed in some form or another since 2005
And all that has changed is the visuals
But now people like it xD
Fucking impressionable twats
>tfw hit my skill ceiling at 3 line goldbox
>tfw cant flip my car in all directions mid air to guide the ball whereever i want like the pros
Some of the timing needed is insane. Ive got over 200 hours in and im still easily beaten by higher tiers.
>>333597087
edgy
>>333593657
The graphics are shit though. It doesn't even support fucking antialiasing, it looks horrendous without any.
>>333597101
Honestly
Try any other competitive game ever
And tell me rocket league holds up
>>333597232
>It doesn't even support fucking antialiasing
Actually there's a big "Antialiasing" option if you actually had played the game
>>333597018
thats probably somewhere near what they paid for the ps+ deal and kotaku coverage
>>333595826
Good, then you won't be alone.
/v/ never ceases the contrarianism I see
>>333597000
And Super Meat Boy is just about pressing a button at the right time.
And Counter Strike is just about shooting everyone to the head all the time.
And Path of Exile is just about click-spamming.
Absolutely any mechanic can be trivialized if you want to. Doesn't mean it's true.
It's just a fallacy from someone that most likely never actually played the game long enough to judge it properly.
>>333597440
I think you misunderstand.
He really fucking sucks.
Like easy AI sucks.
>>333597375
FXAA aka smear fucking vaseline on the already blurry ass visuals.
>>333597671
Still antialiasing kid. Have fun at school today!
I play it local multiplayer with my friend. The only complain is that the ladder is unbalanced as it puts you against very easy or very hard opponents.
What's the best track?
My vote goes to Breathing Underwater.
>>333594006
why do you even browse a board about video games if fun is not the point
>>333598467
Yeah, mine, too, the rest is get-to-a-game-fast-to-not-listen-to-this-track-anymore tier
>>333598274
The problem is likely that your own ability is inconsistent.
>>333594006
>games are not meant to be fun
Please leave
>>333599157
Not to this extent.

What's your favorite quick chat command?
Personally, I'm a Wow! guy
>>333600210
Nice shot or what a save
sarcastically of course
>>333597087
Wether this is bait or not, it's such a stupid mentality. I played the original game and there was barely any community for it, which made playing online a nightmare. Now that the gameplay has gotten more exposure in a different title, I can enjoy the game a lot more now.
Seriously, this is some stupid level of hipster shit. Get your head out of the ground.
Just started a few days ago after I got my steam controller. Having a good time.
/v/ just hates it so they can dismiss a good game that's also popular with casuals.
>>333600913

No problem
Works in every situation
Why is Dominus the most widely used car?

>They removed Scorched Earth from the OST
WHY
>>333593891
"Casual" is not a criticism. It's just a classification.
>>333594279
You might have a point on kickoff, just because so many things could happen, but no. The ball goes where you hit it unless you're a lagging fuck.

Is it possible to play split screen multiplayer online on PS4 with just 1 PS+ account? I was at a friend's house and it wanted me to sign in on PSN. After I did that, it said both my friend and I needed Plus. He has it and I don't.
Is it possible to just play as a guest?
>everyone flies arround trying to do fancy shit for their youtube channels
>do basic shit and MVP nearly every game
>>333595675
Arcade style games based on a player's skill are more replayable than story-focused games driven by narrative? Stop the fucking presses.
>>333606716
generic puerto rican/10
>>333606716
I'm the angel of luck
>>333606963
Pretty sure that on console both players need a PS+ account, even though Player 2 just shows up as "Player 1's Name (2)"
>simple games are stupid shit for kids
Better throw out my NES and arcade collection!
>>333596204
Lol.
>>333607539
that's pretty dumb
>>333607539
Not true, I played couch co-op on PS4 with only one PS+ account before I switched to PC.
>>333596204
t. Semi-Pro
>play like 80h unranked and SP
>start getting into ranked
>stomp everyone
Why do people think playing ranked first is a good idea?
How do I git gud at my air game? I've got 200 hours and still flail like a retard one I'm in the air.
>>333608437
>play a bunch of prospect 1/2 during placement matches
>absolutely terrible
>they're all so sad that they suck
>amazed by simple aerials
why put yourself through the torture of ranked if you're clearly not cut out for it yet?
>>333608819
Don't hold W.
Easiest way to practice is drive up the wall and get as close as you can to the ball and then jump vertically as needed.
>>333597397
>implying ps4 doesn't pay companies to give game away free
>>333593891
>an online pvp game is casual as fuck
Or did I just fall for the bait?
>>333609280
>Don't hold W.
People actually use keyboard controls in this game?
>blue star never
fucking forever stuck in div 4 just end my life famigos
Why should we tell you guys how to get good when we could reap the benefits of playing shitters?
>>333606716
>No option to avoid joining in progress matches
>Everytime I boot up the game I end up being dropped into 0-8 match on the losing team with a minute to go, oh and your team is literal toddlers
>Keeps happening after the initial matchmake too
Literally ruined the game for me, only got 6 hours when I would have loved to play so much more. It's such a stupidly massive oversight
>>333611426
>No option to avoid joining in progress matches
Yeah there is, it's called "play ranked." In ranked you always start a fresh game.
>yfw this is an award winning and record sales breaking game because of shiteating americans and their undeveloped brains
>>333611582
>Ranked
>Implying I can enjoy myself with that arbitrary rank or score that usually comes with ranked game modes going up and downand down and down
Why would I do that to myself? I'm not looking to get into the meta or whatever the fuck I just wanna fuck around with some car soccer.
>>333611670
>yfw people like fun
Whoa.
>>333611789
So you're saying an arbitrary and meaningless scoring system really matters a lot to you? Better go get them upvotes then, buddy.
>>>/reddit/
>>333606716
Should I get the PS4 version?
Are there any benefits of it compared to the xbone and PC versions?
>>333612290
PS4 has an exclusive car.
>>333594693

This game is sweet and I enjoy being able to jump with afriendand play without giving many fucks.
>>333607852
Ready for my daily dose.
>>333612290
>>333612495

(but only 1080p for some reason)
>>333614185
Can PS4 do 60 FPS with Rocket League?
I'd get it on PC but I only have a laptop unfortunately.
>pain in the ass carfootball
>perfect
Holy fuckshit, no.
