Great game, but would like to see some updates

Great game, but there are a few things I would like to see in the future. The first being the ability to customize an orange and a blue team car. It’s hard to make a load out I like because the skin, wheels, boost, and goal explosion can only match for one team. Secondly, I’ve noticed you can’t scrap multiples of original cars. You can scrap the color variations, but I literally have 2 plain octanes, 2 plain aftershocks, and 2 plain takumis that are just taking up space. Also I would love to be able to change the order of my customized cars. I have over 10 cars, and I have to scroll all the way to the end to get to my most recent cars, and again, I can’t scrap the multiple plain cars I don’t want. Lastly, I dislike that instead of being able to play the extra modes when I want they’re seasonal. You can’t give us a taste and then take it away completely, with no announcements of bringing it back. Cuz let’s be honest. 3v3s can never replace hoops or volleyball. They should all be available year round. Bonus: I was able to figure out how to make the color of the car black. Shortly after that it was taken away as well, and all my black cars were then red. Really wish I could use white and black in my car as I please. I can understand why black/white aren’t available for a primary color, but I’m not sure why those colors are not available for a secondary at least. But overall a great game and I will definitely continue playing👍🏾

Great game but some bugs

I play the game literally everyday, it’s an awesome game, simple yet hard, with practice anyone could become really good, but there are just some problems I’ve encountered, after the new update to the rocket pass it’s much harder to obtain items and boring to level up since there’s nothing new, at level 130 the creates given by leveling up glitched and didn’t let me open any until level 150 which took a while but then I was able to open 20 boxes all at once, but it created another issue, the badge border that I was trying to prestige glitched and took me back to Gold I was at Onyx XI and now back at Gold I and it won’t go up, kinda lame. A lot of items that I’m missing are only in the leveling up crates, I have all the items on the token crates and daily mystery item, now it’s much harder to obtain colored items or items I’m missing to complete the sets. Awesome game, just wish they would fix these bugs and make it more accessible to obtain items by playing the game, new items would be awesome, maybe tournaments by ranks, trade items with other players, they should make the tokens accesible to buy with real money so at least they get revenue to keep updating and making the game better. I will still play the game but it’s slowly losing popularity because new seasons just don’t bring any excitement to the game, just give you a title for the rank you reached and maybe a banner but that’s it, should bring new items PLEASE!

Great game but touch player issues

Sideswipe is a great 2D implementation of Rocket League, but there are some big flaws with the current implementation of touch control! 1: It is practically impossible to do flip reset chains with only thumbs because your right thumb must can only be in so many places at once. I’m required to use three fingers to play, which is very uncomfortable. A good solution may be allowing you to decide which side of the screen acts as a half flip button. That way, the right thumb isn’t stuck with so many controls. 2: The iPhone screen edges interfere with gameplay. It’s really easy to swipe down the notification panel given that I have to use my index finger in addition to my thumbs to play. There’s also the issue of the accidental swiping out of the game from the bottom, which I hope could be fixed with some kind of lock mechanism. Side note: The lag can be really bad sometimes and cause the car and/or ball to appear like it’s teleporting around the field. There should be a flag where if there is significant packet loss, the game is paused briefly with a countdown to resume or a goal is not counted. I typically play on incredibly strong wifi with ~13ms ping and over 1gb/s speeds, so to be having severe connection issues frequently in the first place is pretty shocking. Please improve servers!

Feels familiar, yet it’s refreshing and unique.

I’ve always loved Rocket League ever since my younger brother first showed it to me. But as the years passed after playing it so much, the community has sadly grown more toxic, the items and cosmetics system became too much of a cash cow and didn’t make the game fun anymore. Regardless I still play a match or two or twenty once in a while either with friends or just against bots. When I first heard the official news about a mobile version of Rocket League will be releasing I thought, “Oh great, just another mobile game as an excuse to have micro transactions and take more money from people.” At the same time the idea of being able to play Rocket League whenever I wanted excited me. I almost never play mobile games anymore, but after downloading this I became hooked almost immediately. The controls definitely take some getting used to so tutorials and free play training are recommended, as well as some matches against bots while raising the difficulty levels once you start getting the hang of it. I’ve only had this game for a few days and I’m already in silver rankings on 2v2’s and a tier level that I never thought I would reach in such short a time. I’m so glad that I’m this excited about Rocket League again and I can’t wait to play more!

Good! With some downsides…

So sometimes when I am just playing rocket league i get like these weird spasms and I have one of them recorded. If you would like to see this recording psyonix, then just respond to this and tell me that you do. I feel like this game is really good but I have some ideas for it. I think you should be able to go into a free play with your friends and just mess around becuase the other day, we were both thinking that it could be really fun. Another thing, I think that instead of getting xp when you do season rewards, maybe half of those should give you cars, hats, boosts ect. I also feel like you should be able to demolish people (demo) like in the actual rocket league game. Though when you get demo’d after one second you spawn in your goal. Last but no least, i think there should be different maps by this I mean like that the layout of the mao is the same it is just that the background looks different sometimes. There should also be maps that have weird aspects to them for fun. These should be unranked becuase the map could mess people up sometimes. Thanks for your time Psyonix! -Juan Edit: I was about to go to champion, and I expected my opponent to be a champ or a diamond like me, but no, I go against a grand champion and I could not win he was also being extremely toxic for no reason. His name was Vydals V2 please do something to fix this

Good Game Absolutely Ruined

Great game, fun to play, minor issues in the game itself but overall well done. The ruin of this game is if you are playing like a normal touch mobile game, you will hit a ceiling. This is because people use controllers to play a mobile game. At a certain point, no matter what you do you cannot keep up with controller players, the mechanics are way faster and easier to do. If you’re good you can beat them here and there, but the margin for error is so small because you make one mistake and they can easily change position and do everything you can faster and easier. The worst is that you can tell most controller people aren’t that good, their decision making isn’t amazing, and they are normal players you should be able to compete with, but with a controller it’s like they are playing a different game. Situations that are impossible to come back from as a touch screen player are possible for controller players. Baffles me that people don’t just stick to regular rocket league with a controller, but no we have to deal with people who can’t treat a mobile game like a mobile game. Once you get to the point where you’re only playing against controller players, you have to be absolutely perfect, and the game loses its taste. I loved this game, but not being able to separate controller vs touch screen players ruins the competitive aspect of it.

No

Don’t play it’s not worth the time and effort to get good at this game while you could just play the real version which is honestly better and also you will experience a lot of very mean and rude players that have no care for your personal feelings and as well as you basically having to pay for everything you unlock and the rewards that are free are not the most appealing to rocket league players such as myself I only got to silver 2 on this account because I was fed up with all the people mocking me for the car I’m using and as well as if I mess up a single time also you will have mean teammates mean opponents and you will make no real friends if you try and get good at this game newsflash you cannot because every single time you start to play better you get put down by a person who is most of the time worse than you and if people say to ignore them you can’t cause they’re still spamming what a save in the chat so many times they get banned from chat and if you say anything back then you will probably get reported for harassment and then banned for life and half of the player base is actually just grown men who probably trash talk the most because the don’t have anything better to do and as well for the non versatility of the controls for mobile you need to have actual spider fingers to even drive forward and also why are the goals bigger in ranked they should be smaller just like the player base all in all this is why you shouldn’t play this game

Save your time. Save your money. Save your sanity.

After spending an abundant amount of time with this game, I can honestly say it is absolutely horrible. Matchmaking is slow and problematic. Ive experienced numerous times when the app just stops looking for a match after repeatedly pressing “play.” Ive also experienced numerous times where the app starts a game and then suddenly ends as if the match finished on its own. Once matched, you are generally paired with a teammate who only scores goals against you or someone who has no idea what they are doing. There are also times when you can tell your partner has left the match and their car runs on a bot-controlled autopilot. During matches, you’ll frequently experience extreme lag. You’ll line up a shot just for the game to glitch and see the ball already in your goal or on the opposite side of the screen giving the opposing team complete advantage over you. If I had to guess, I would say there is a high chance this game is pay to win. With all these issues compiled, you should be allowed to leave the match without penalty, but unfortunately this isnt an option. Completely aggravating, frustrating, and not worth your time. The ranking system is also aggravating. After playing 30 matches in a row and losing every one of them due to every issue mentioned above, I decided to write this review expressing my displeasure with the app. Save your time. Save your money.
