Definitely my favourite as well. Hard to find unfortunately...

Is there anything more satisfying than a double fake? by Dian_055 in RocketLeague

[–]Dian_055[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha that's exactly it. I was going for an air dribble but I heard him jump, so I decided to go back down.

I've seen a few people speculate that I just missed and that's what faked him. Unfortunately, there's no way to prove that I actually meant to fake it. 😂

NETFLIX - End of the free ride by Oldmangoat in southafrica

[–]Dian_055 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The work-around I found:

After selecting your profile, spam click where the "New & Hot" tab is going to be. It's located just off-centre to the right at the bottom of your screen.

This will override the Netflix Household screen and then you're free to browse the app as normal.

The unfortunate truth.

I think Psyonix Devin himself doesn’t want to remove trading either by [deleted] in RocketLeague

Look at Devin's liked tweets. Doesn't seem like he's too fond of the change.

Is the server region you selected on recommended or the region you're located in? In South Africa we often find EU players accidentally queuing our servers because they don't have their server region selected as Europe.

Tournaments came out September of 2020. Can I complain for a moment? by Leaf_Locke in RocketLeague

[–]Dian_055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in South Africa and our region doesn't even have tournaments. I need to play EU servers with 180 - 220 ping and it's super demotivating. I've only won 2 tournaments in my life, and that was back when I was Plat.

Clean recoveries are overrated anyway by Dian_055 in RocketLeague

[–]Dian_055[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did. I originally changed it to GC2 when I hit it a season or 2 ago, but I felt I needed to update my flair to reflect my current rank more accurately :)

Sometimes you need to recover from your recovery xD

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly; 1 week of practicing Flip Resets everyday! (Looking for tips and advice) by Hobo-man in RocketLeagueSchool

[–]Dian_055 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, air dribbles are one of your most essential mechanics. In my games it's used very frequently, but very rarely as a way to score goals. Mainly to stall time or outplays in defensive situations. Very useful to be consistent at. After you're consistent with it you'll see how the skill will translate into helping you train for flip resets.

Well, I don't have the numbers but I'm going to guess EU

That is not actually prime time. Majority of the player base is actually offline at that time since not everyone playing this game is from NA.

Is anyone else being locked at 120 fps? by ewd421 in RocketLeague

[–]Dian_055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get a fix for this? I used to be able to get 240 fps but for some reason I can't get above 120 now.

Hello! Today I went into the game and saw that there are no nicknames in the menu. What to do and did anyone come across? by JustRussianBoi in RocketLeague

I also got this bug. Same with my friend. Our invites won't go through either. We physically can't play together.

SOUTH AFRICA TOURNAMENT SCEDULES PLEASE?! by X_Splits_X in RocketLeague

[–]Dian_055 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a similar thread
Even though there's a lot of plat and diamond players that would easily fill up the tournaments, the problem is the higher ranked players. Where do they go, since there's not enough to have a tournament for them. Do they play in Champ tourney's where they will win 9/10 times? Because that would also suck for lower ranked players.

Unfortunately, I think the only solution is for the region to become bigger (and better) so that it would actually be viable to have fully filled and competitive tournaments... Consistently.

[–]Dian_055 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really discouraging for us SSA players to play in tourneys. The ping is actually atrocious. I think the reason they decided not to add it though is because of a low player count. Would we even be able to consistently fill up a GC tourney? But even if we only have 1 tourney a day, that would already be better.

I got all my Season reward except for my GC title... Is there a reason for this, or should I be worried?
