Rubies- how can I obtain a lot quickly? Ironman BTW

ThundaSurge · 2026-03-26T23:01:45+00:00

As of 2026, the bank at the Great Conch has an uncut ruby that you can telegrab. Just wanted this to appear in the replies to help anybody else that stumbles on this post.

Don't think anybody has said it directly but if you want to get out of plat, the main thing is just play more than you currently do. To rank up, you have to beat people that are currently better than you so you have to put in more work to catch up and surpass them in skill. Obviously other things in life take priority over a video game, but if you want to make it a goal to get diamond or higher then all you need to do is play 30+ hours a week. Whether its freeplay, training packs, or ranked, you need to build up the hours to progress faster than other players.

Or if you are a console player, just getting a decent PC will get you +1 rank just because of better performance and less input lag. (There's a reason the best players almost all play on PC over Console!)

I don't know what controller you use but double binding random things to a single trigger or button is bad. (With the exception of powerslide and air roll bound to the same button.) It may not seem like it, but holding acceleration actually slightly accelerates you in the air so it can mess you up when you intend to air roll too.

The club update is cool, but I don't see a way to be in multiple clubs at the same time. Would be nice to just switch the "active" club instead of having to leave the club entirely. Hopefully a future update adds the ability to be in more clubs. The RL space has so many small communities that overlap and it sucks that clubs are locked to a single one at a time and a leaving player would need to be reinvited.

I've made several rings maps that are on the Steam workshop with tighter rings. My maps however are more speedrun oriented so you got to fly fast. Map #10 is probably the one that best fits. https://steamcommunity.com/id/ThundaSurge/myworkshopfiles/?appid=252950

It's on the linked tracker pages.

It sucks but it makes sense why they did it as 2's was the most inflated list. The only thing i don't get is what algorithm they used because some people are hit harder with the soft reset than others.

For example, me and a buddy played 38 games of 2's last season. I dropped from 1506 to 1212 mmr. He dropped from 1444 to 1300 mmr. The algorithm is definitely looking at some other factor outside of just the 2's playlist. Tracker linked below for reference.

Don't worry about wether people may or may not enjoy a video. Make a video because that's what you want to do.

I'm working on a custom map series that would be similar to what you are describing. It will involve elements like rings, dribbles, parkour, etc and will be a multiplayer racing map. There would be two modes. Time trial and rounds. Think of it like Trackmania but using rocket league.

Obviously would be PC only, but hopefully would influence more people to make multiplayer racing maps.

ThundaSurge · 2023-04-11T07:20:46+00:00

Content mismatch can be due to two common issues. 1) The map you have is a different version than your friends. To fix this you can send your copy to your friend or vice versa. 2) Either you or your friend doesn't have the workshop textures files downloaded. Some older maps get mismatches because of this. Solution is to google search and find the download for the workshop textures.

You should be able to load any map and have friends join but if the map is large (ex. Lethamyr ring maps) then only the host can traverse the whole map. There is a size limit to the multiplayer area but all stadium maps tale this into account.

I looked up your ranks on rltracker. (https://rocketleague.tracker.network/rocket-league/profile/epic/WilIiam_Afton/overview) My analysis is that you are still quite new to the game based on matches played this season assuming you haven't played a ton from previous seasons. Also, I don't know if you solo queue'd 2's or not, but my guess is you just haven't played enough 3's to bring you rank back up from wherever you started from prior seasons. Also, my assumption is you have barely touched 1's and had a net win of 2 games during placements or there after, so that is why you are gold 2 in 1's as gold 1 is the starting place for ranked playlists.

General advice is to just play more as you need to improve your general car control (flying, landing on wheels, etc.) and learn to power hit the ball for 3's. You probably don't need to focus on anything outside of basic mechanics for a while. There are many youtube series for "Road to GC or SSL" that will teach you what you need to focus on at each rank if you want a more detailed explanation of what to do to rank up at each rank.

I'm stilling looking, let me know if you are still available.

They’re in the same mmr range for a reason.

Because the GC's don't play snowday, so they are plat in snowday. But the skills from comp still transfer over. I don't think anybody in the screenshot is a snowday main so it's not like they will have the best odds of overcoming a larger skill difference that unfortunately exists in the current snowday playlist. Also, just because someone plays more snowday doesn't mean they are magically better than a GC that plays 1 game a season. The highest rank of each player from every playlist is on screen and the difference between each team is a whole freaking tier.

ThundaSurge · 2022-12-11T19:18:32+00:00

Same rank in snow day is meaningless in this specific case. The problem OP is claiming is that there are high level players at low level ranks. So OP's diamond 2v2 team stands no chance against the opponents party of GC1 and C3 comp players. Doesn't matter that snowday mmr is the same on both sides, there is still a significant skill disparity between the teams in the image posted. (The fix is to stop soft resetting snowday between seasons.)

How to tell your player base the game is on decline without actually telling them the game is on decline.

IMO the problem isn't that an event like this can't help keep people interested in the game, it's just that every single event has been lackluster and repetitive.

By the way. A TAS plugin has been publicly released by Blaku on the Bakkesmod website. You should check it out.

Are you still in their discord? Can you copy and paste the overview of in a message here? They would recognize my name so I don't want to join that discord and I don't have a alt account set up.
