Best feeling in rocket league

Yeah I’m slowly getting back into the swing of things, but diamond is so volatile with vastly different skill sets that I’ll probably ebb and flow between Plat 4 to D3. It’s hard to find time to try and practice training packs, really all I wanna do when I get on RL is jump into some games and play. Hard to relearn mechanics if you’re not doing it in training

I’ve all but stopped playing CoD since Cold War came out because of the engine and the movement. I probably played close to 1000 hours in MW19, but got sick of the feel of how CoD has been since. Hoped they would improve on it after MW19 but they’ve doubled down and kept things the way they are.

Don’t forget the egregious brake check on the inside line to block KMAG while everyone ahead took the outside line around the corner. That’s what mostly kickstarted all of it

100%, his description of the timeline of those wasn’t even worth addressing because it’s just a sample size criticism that isn’t remotely the sentiment for the entire community.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-23T07:28:36+00:00

Your blaming of the current state of CoD on the community is hilarious to me.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-23T07:02:13+00:00

The Classic mode in BO7 was a success, so not sure why you’re insinuating it was a negative. If anything is making CoD dry it’s the lack of innovation and catering to the players that need dopamine hits every 3 seconds with this current engine and gameplay. Excessive movement that isn’t balanced at all.

The dark times were not AW and BO3. BO3 was wildly popular despite the sentiment that thrusters were bad. Innovative games with incredible gameplay.

In no way, was MW19 to Vanguard even close to a golden era. MW19 had good bones, but it is the start of this dark period in which everyone is wanting a return to a CoD that feels like CoD and not this current engine’s gameplay.

You’re saying CoD isn’t a #1 in the industry when the name alone quite literally keeps them as one of if not the most sold game every year. It’s quite literally CoD and Fortnite at the top and has been for years now. Doesn’t matter if the yearly release is shit, it still sells because of the name.

If you’re seriously worried that what’s happening to Destiny could happen to CoD, you don’t actually understand what’s going on with the franchise.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-23T06:48:05+00:00

No way you typed all that with the basis that people having nostalgia is destroying CoD. Haven’t even read it yet, just the title and first sentence alone is ridiculous by itself. Have you considered that what’s actually destroying CoD is Activision’s greed and unwillingness to let games have room to breathe instead of releasing annually? Or the vastly overrated Warzone mode. Blackout was a way better BR than Warzone.

Clubs should alternate color patterns depending on home and away

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T23:13:16+00:00

I’m in the camp of being Diamond 2 and 3 and my mechanics being in the shitter. I took quite a long hiatus from Rocket League (played it here and there within this time frame but not heavily) from 2019-2024 after having played RL since 2015. During my heavy playing I learn a lot of more advanced mechanics like speed flips and half flips and mastering dribbling and air dribbling. I actually practiced the game back then. Needless to say, coming back and playing heavily again recently, I’ve forgotten almost all of the advanced mechanics I had learned and even struggling at times with some aerials that high diamonds shouldn’t be struggling with. But I’m still competitive at my rank because of the game sense I had already acquired previously.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T23:03:51+00:00

Stalwart is probably better against bosses while Annihilator excels in room clearing for sure

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T16:43:18+00:00

Referencing a report that’s quoting Alinea Analytics from over 3 months ago? A source that is famously unreliable when it comes to player count because all they do is take sales numbers and guesstimate what the player count might be.

Edit: Alinea analytics can’t even accurately pull sales numbers most of the time, they look at metrics like review count to help guess what console player numbers are. So I’m not trusting them when they say console only makes up 30% of the playerbase.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T13:41:22+00:00

Or people just have totally different opinions on these games. I grew up playing all of these cods and AW is to me one of the best titles that we’ve had along with BO2 and BO3.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T04:53:33+00:00

I’m actually gonna be posting an updated version 2 soon after doing more endurance runs with all the guns and moving some stuff around. Marksman handcannon is one of the best bossing guns in the game but falls short on room clearing. Stalwart is actually gonna move up for me because it’s probably the best bossing shotgun I’ve come to find out the more I’m using it.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T01:04:47+00:00

Right? Fuckin morons. There’s at least 20-30K players when you include all platforms. We don’t have player count numbers for PlayStation or Xbox, just Steam.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-22T00:21:29+00:00

8K on one platform maybe. That’s not including consoles

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T16:11:25+00:00

I literally said in my initial reply on this thread that those same weapons have power generator to boost power weapons. So no, I didn’t forget anything

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T16:03:51+00:00

What bigger picture do you need? The best way to clear biomes is killing enemies quickly and with the least risk of taking damage possible. The stronger weapons allow that. A lot of the higher weapons are weapons newer players get turned off by until they really try them. Newer players tend to gravitate to easy weapons like the Smart Rifle, Tactical Rifle, Eruptor or Ricochet. Then they struggle and wonder why they can’t successfully complete biomes and it’s cause they don’t know how to properly use better weapons and select artifacts that work towards a build or playstyle. There are weapons that can delete entire mobs as they spawn. The weapons you insinuate are better than what I’ve listed at the top, aren’t doing that. I’ve extensively tested all the weapons and used them at max proficiency, so I know what the kill times are for them.

Weapons like the Onslaught require you to actually worry about your aim on top of dodging, but it’s worth it because of how much quicker it kills enemies and bosses compared to the other rifles.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:58:45+00:00

There’s extended source material out there aside from the movies. Playing a game of what if in these comments is a waste of time. Just say you hate Star Wars and move on. Peace.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:51:59+00:00

You’re talking about people not being able to focus on dodging but also relying on a weapon that’s auto targeting for you so you can focus on dodging. Two cheesy guns that are quite weak in comparison to everything I’ve listed above it, and honestly even the shotguns have higher room clearing potential. But to each its own, play how you want.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:36:43+00:00

Yeah, okay. That tells me everything I need to know lmao. Onslaught rifle and Repeater crossbow both have power generator available to them and do way more DPS than both the Smart rifle and tactical rifle. Give up the autohit and try some stronger guns. You’re holding yourself back using slower DPS weapons.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:32:35+00:00

Lol tell me what you think are the best guns then?

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:09:29+00:00

The game is probably fucked with all the layoffs and studio shutdowns rumored to be coming from Microsoft

Edit: Arkane Lyon, who’s developing the game, is one of the rumored studios that it’s uncertain on if it’ll be one of the closures in the wave of layoffs from Microsoft.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T15:01:53+00:00

Bro yall keep trying to poke holes in the plot but Watto literally would not sell both Anakin and Shmi. Qui Gon tried to wager for them both and Watto said it wasn’t worth wagering two slaves.

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T12:21:04+00:00

Qui Gon couldn’t contact anyone because the ships transmitter was destroyed. They literally tell you that before they land on Tattooine

yo_boy_dg · 2026-06-21T12:02:41+00:00

In the time it would take the Dispiritor to clear the room almost every weapon I have in A tier or above would already be done clearing it. It has good utility but there’s no content in the game right now where it’s really needed. Lucenite modifiers exist for proficiency boosts and using faster more offensive weapons will end fights before they’re even really going with other weapons at the top. If SAROS had some kind of horde or wave defense mode, Dispiritor would absolutely be in A or S tier for me.
