For a month or two Rocket League was everything. It was all we played, all we talked about.
Then it all just sort of evaporated.
But guess what. People are still playing Rocket League. And they’re doing insane things on a daily basis.
I still play Rocket League semi-regularly, but it’s mostly local multiplayer with friends and family. I have no idea what the level is online and, quite frankly, I’m afraid to find out. So I thought I’d check the Rocket League subreddit. When I left it was enough to be decent at dribbling, now insane aerial goals are the norm.
Here’s a small serving of what I found.
There are a lot of zero second goals. Some of them are incredible works of solo brilliance…

Aerials are, of course, still a huge deal.

So many animated pics … power usage on my laptop jumped! Congrats Mark. You may have killed a tree or two.
I never see stuff like this when I play, then again I’m no where near their level.
Its a mix of these dudes being really good players and also showing the best of the best that they’ve done. For every successful one of these plays there’s probably 100 hours of average stuff.
Don’t get me wrong it would take me 200-300 hours of play for one of these plays but its not impossible when you factor in how much they play….. I love them, so amazing to see haha.
I can’t remember the last time I saw the online player count below 20,000 😛
Yup I can get a game within around 30 seconds any time of the day I’ve tried.
And the fact that they just released it on Xbox One makes it crazy popular. I pretty much play it for a few hours every night and it’s packed! Loving it!
I still play every day. The game just keeps getting better and better as my skill grows and the skill of the competition grows. Game of the year for me unquestionably
Thanks for making me feel woefully inadequate, Serrels. 🙂
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to get it. I bought it last week when it came out on the Xbox despite also having a PS4 and PC and now I regret the amount of months I’d missed out on this game.
I haven’t had this much fun with a sports game in years.
I’m never going to be able to do that stuff, but damn it if these things doesn’t want to make me try and try.
I picked this up last night (XB1) and it truly is all it was hyped up to be…and more. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it today at work! Just wanna play play play.
