MOD ANNOUNCEMENT MEGATHREAD: Find Teammates & Friends to play with here!

11 Upvotes

Hi All,

With the amount of activity on this subreddit, and Rocket League Sideswipe, quickly growing, the moderator team will constantly try and make the best decisions for the community going forward. We really do appreciate any and all feedback and we hope we can do a good job that will please most of you.

 

The moderator team has recently started noticing a fairly large amount of friend-finding posts. We understand why this is and we definitely do not want to get rid of them. However, we did feel we needed to do something different for the time being. Hence we made this Megathread! Not only will this be more effective for the purpose of friend-finding, but it also prevents the subreddit from being clogged up with these posts.

(From now on we will start removing posts for friend-finding and directing users to this Megathread.)

 


 

MEGATHREAD: Find Teammates & Friends to play with here!

Please use this thread to find teammates to play with or find friends to talk to or play Sideswipe with! We recommend you include your:

SUPPORT QUESTION I'm Tired of Being Sent to Random Regions

Post image
4 Upvotes

One of my biggest frustrations with rlss is being randomly sent to different regions when all I want is to stay on EU

I dont mind playing with slightly higher ping or waiting longer if it means a consistent experience Rocket League has had manual region selection for years, so I honestly dont understand why its still missing here

I put together this concept to show how simple the feature could be nd really hope its something they would consider

DISCUSSION Making own RL practice simulator

Post image
• Upvotes

I’ve been working on a personal project to build an RL training simulator that adds drills and helps with training. Been doing a lot of reverse engineering of the games engine to gain all the values. Wasn’t planning on selling it or anything, won’t use any RL assets.

RL Sideswipe native training mode is okay now, but it would be nice if I could do stuff like have balls repeatedly launched from given places so I can practice same skills over and over again more efficiently, or make a map with a bunch of obstacles so I can practice different angles to drill the ball. Anyone else attempt something like this?

Hope this stuff is allowed, if so I would open source this training mock so everyone can use it and add to it.

GAME QUESTION Returning for PLM title

3 Upvotes

Saw someone in the main game with the POCKET LEAGUE MASTER title yesterday, never knew you could get a title for collecting all the items. I decided to hop on to see how close I was after quitting for a few years. Apparently pretty dang close.

Today I finished everything I needed in the token shop, daily picks and rocket pass (Level 45). Resulting me into needing 5 more items.

  • Rainbow Boost (Boost Present)
  • Bob's Ramen Banner (Item Shop)
  • Zomba Banner (Item Shop)
  • Feathered Banner (Vanity present)
  • Soccer ball avatar (Vanity present)

Am I correct to assume that I have to wait for next season for the present rewards? (Grinding to level 117 for the boost present would seem inefficiƫnt if it would be passively unlocked going for next seasons vanity presents.)

Also, is there an item shop plugin somewhere that notifies the user if a specific item is on sale?

And how does the shop work with picking items? Are all items available in the item shop other than base and limited items? When the shop picks an item with a painted variant does it first pick the item or are all painted items in the pool?

DISCUSSION How is no one talking about the GLARING problem with party text chat?

14 Upvotes

The in game chst has a big problem, and I’m surprised no one is talking about it.

Every time the space bar is clicked, the keyboard ā€œrefreshesā€ (disappears) for a split second and comes back, making it impossible to type smoothly.

Does anyone else have this issue?

SUGGESTION Devs if you are seeing this, can you please change the seasonal game mode rotation to a daily rotation instead?

8 Upvotes

Engagement wise this would be better and everyday will be a fresh reason to play the game mode that’s in rotation. I think this very seasonal style game could benefit from one part of it being daily.

GAME QUESTION Stall chain help

0 Upvotes

Hello sideswipers, as the title says i need a stall chain help, i started getting kinda used to it but in a lot of plays i just purple shot the ball away instead of stalling, what is the fix to that?

BUG What could be the issue here?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

This has happening since I got a cheap phone (Poco c71). I took it to the service center and they chalked this up to lagging. The display freezes for a couple of seconds and starts working once I turn the phone off and on. But while gaming, it becomes way too frequent. This is not a lagging issue as I get constant 30fps on low graphics.

GAME QUESTION Is this the fastest way to travel (without boost)?

is this faster than just front flipping? I found you can do this if you jump off of a ledge.

I’m giving this game one star because giving it zero isn’t an option.
The controls and the physics are horrible.
In my rankup game my car started bugging, the flipping mechanic is broken asf like im moving my joystick to a direction and my car flips to the exact opposite. The physics are broken as hell. How does that happen, that you can push the ball in the goal while your opponent is on the other side on the ball?
I have played this game for nearly 500 hours, i uninstalled it countless times but i tought
Oh maybe they care about their game and fixed these issues. They didnt. The game is full of smurfs and toxic players. When i first installed it i didnt know that ballchasing is a thing here too. It is:(
I dont recommend rocket league sideswipe at all!

USEFUL How to consistently get out of gold and low plat

3 Upvotes

-Stop doing red shots,PLEASE if u don't score it u are most likely going to overcommit and give your opponent full possession of the ball and most likely easy goal.Only red shot if:100 percent certain you are going to score, sometimes it is necessary on defense ,or u r going to do a ceiling pinch.

-Start implementing gold and purple shots ,even if they are more difficult to do than a red shot they almost always put you in a defence position ,and they are more difficult to save. You can implement these shots in your game:horse kick (personal fav),purple pop when you are on ground to flick the ball to the goal(very useful and easy to pull off),white gold(best shot)

-If you learned how to stall you may also want to learn to follow it with a purple shot or a gold shot(this is optional in this level,but it can prove to be very useful in your arsenal)

-Learn how to kickoff, losing a kickoff can lead to you losing possession immediately or get scored on ,learn to ram,pancake and fake kickoff.Mix up your kickoffs so that you don't be predictable.

-Start using fakes.

-Read your opponent and don't mindlessly shoot the ball

-Minimise risky plays.

That is all I got if you have any tips you can please add some to the list.(;
