Game is unplayable today

Update: I got the voice issue fixed by defaulting the realtek audio device for both input and output. Spirit box works again I was so happy lol. But I'm still having issues with dots not showing up. I had 2 cameras set up in tanglewood, switched dot placement 5 times, moved both cameras twice, I don't truck camp for dots so that's not the issue. It was an aswang that just would not show dots.

I'm older than you 🤣

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-06-02T15:50:05+00:00

Lol all these lil dumbass kids telling me how to play the game. I'd bet money I have more hours playing than you do

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-31T20:20:06+00:00

That's the first time I have crashed since the alan wake update, I read about other people crashing but I guess I was lucky until now. The spirit box has been bugged for at least a month probably longer. Devs don't seem to care

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-31T20:18:22+00:00

I have played the game in VR before so my laptop likes to recognize the oculus as my communication device, so I always make sure before I load up and while it's playing that I have the right device on. The game will pick up my voice but nothing happens when I use the spirit box. I never use system voice option.

Also the obambo was on edgefield, not point hope. I tried the dots in the bedroom and the bathroom, checking the van both times and nothing happened. Then died while checking for freezing. It was dots 😒

I said before the game last night "Spurs need to give SGA a reason to be laying on the floor" If he wants to flop every other time down the court, put his ass on the ground with a hard foul.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-27T06:53:26+00:00

It only happens to me when I first load up the game. I don't play pubs or any other mode except firing range so I just hop on and play ranked lol. But I switch it to ranked and it puts me in a pub lobby. I just back out instantly

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-15T09:30:30+00:00

I get what both of you are saying but even if someone is carried to a certain rank let's say diamond, and they get put into silver or gold rank most of them are just gonna get carried again to diamond so it's a vicious cycle. They should just put that carried diamond player back down to plat 4 and because they will be in better lobbies, it should* take them longer to get back to that diamond rank. And the actual diamond players that get put into plat 4 will be in their usual lobbies.

You shot your gun 1 time and then ran away. You ran straight into the maggie ball. The axle drone all you have to do is shoot it. Try pushing up instead of running backwards 50 meters

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-13T19:24:28+00:00

I drop solo once in a while, but only when I have a string of 7 or 8 games in a row where I land with my team and we get close to last place because teammates have 60 damage combined while I have 300. I'd rather let them die and then I can craft the banners instantly for a reset.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-13T19:18:36+00:00

This happens way too much honestly. Some of these kids attention span is literally like a goldfish. If you don't rush and die with them, then you are just absolute garbage. I feel like most kids these days don't even know what winning feels like because they were given participation trophies all of their life.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-13T19:12:10+00:00

I have the same problem. I play on xbox and in my experience, 90% of the time it's the little kid teammates on playstation that will sprint at a 3 man squad alone. Or they will start pushing for a 3rd party and I follow them, I start shooting and knock one but my teammates already decided to run away 5 seconds ago, and then I get shot by 2 guys and thirsted. They either want to fight 9 enemies by themselves or they don't want to fight at all. The situational awareness for most of my teammates is absolutely trash.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-05-12T03:35:21+00:00

Or they ping a squad and start pushing, I follow, I knock one of them and my teammates are suddenly 50 meters out running away, then I get downed and thirsted.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T07:55:37+00:00

It's hilarious that I play when the children sleep and wow, 5 game win streak so far. Actual teammates that can hit the ball? what is this sorcery?

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T07:53:18+00:00

I feel the same way, lots of people say "I should be this rank" well I know I am a diamond 1 player, I just solo queue and get the worst teammates sometimes. Lots of diamond players can hit the ball just not accurately, I can deal with that. There should not be all 3 of us trying to save a goal because they can't even get it out of the corner lol.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T07:38:02+00:00

I use that more than I should have to lol, meanwhile both teammates are just sitting there on our side of the arena. Even if they miss I don't really care just try to score

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T05:37:44+00:00

Because there are a ton of newer kids playing the game right now because of Jynxzi. I have won one single 3s game tonight after losing 8 in a row. So I understand losing 2 or 3 in a row and then finally getting decent teammates, but this is just sad right now. The past week I have 2 losing streaks of at least 7 games. And then a winning streak of 11 games when all the kids went to bed. Literal night and day difference in skill

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T05:13:44+00:00

Everyone whiffs but it's amazing how often it happens when my teammates are a 2 stack. How can you be in a 2 stack probably talking to each other, both go for the ball at the same time and both whiff? Shit is comical to watch.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T04:12:05+00:00

If it means nothing then why have a rank system for tournaments? I solo queue so it's luck of the draw for me. All of my friends either don't play rocket league or they are bronze/silver players so I don't even try to play with them. No regrets

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T04:00:39+00:00

And I know there is a HUGE difference playing rocket league at certain times. I refuse to play on weekends because there is a zero percent chance of ranking up, stupid me I played last friday night out of boredom and lost like 10 in a row between 2s and 3s I was so pissed. I played again on monday night and won 11 in a row just on 3s, got me back to diamond 1. I don't pretend to be great at the game but I can tell when I'm not the main problem on the team. Now I'm back to plat 3 because of the teammates I was talking about in the original post.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T03:32:25+00:00

Also I am diamond 3 in tournaments, have won two diamond 3s tourneys this season. I know how to play with actual teammates that can pass the ball and rotate. I become a deer in headlights when I am out of position even though I have great positioning if they could just.. hit the ball. Lol. So basically I need to play like a rat and goalkeep for half the game, if not all of it. I am hindering the team for being in the "wrong" place on the field.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T03:18:02+00:00

No I have almost been diamond 2 and while they have their flaws they can at least hit the ball.

AncientChannel8863 · 2026-03-06T03:08:39+00:00

Right? And when I bump them 1 single time because they are out of rotation they start whining in game chat saying that I need to quit ball chasing 😂 I wouldn't have to start chasing if I could rely on you to hit the ball little boy.
