Waylon really hearted this and pinned it😂😂

At this point, its time as epicgames to take the rest of psyonix devs every paycheck! And epic games should let fall this game to its ground 0! idgaf what u thinkin! They never were so far away of listening to community as of todays age! only shitty skins, more skins, look new car, more trash skins, skins, skins, another trashcar with the same bs hitbox, skins skins....

@@DYNAMiXRap you good bro? You can delete it but that doesn't mean everyone else is going to bc you're upset with the game. We are too, we hear ya.

Same and I’m on Xbox with cross platform disabled

Plenty of Smurfs in Diamond. It's obnoxious.

Diamond is pain on pc

@@hsharky8437 now imagine being champ 2 and got servers dying one by one

Fr im in champ 2 and havent seen any of this ingqme

Ah yes, the good old NRG

Nothing will touch the earliest era of 2015 and early 2016 before Flip Resets. Game played entirely differently and was such a laid back experience by comparison. So much more magic to the game bc we could still be surprised. These kids thinking they’ll become streamers or go pro is just…meh. Toxicity is INSANE today lmao.

What’s crazy is I’ve spoken to a few of these hackers and they’ve been doing this since before free to play, the just kept it low key. Apparently there was some beef, codes got stolen and sold off so then it finally hit mainstream

Yeah but back then we didn’t have items “also available in Fortnite” so… yeah. :(

​@@tiestofalljaysThat's why you I quit playing this game in 2023 and with this BS glad I did

Why am I afraid this may happen? This take on the situation may be more insightful then many realize. Hopefully, we are all wrong about it.

Exactly, just ask yourselves why did they acquire Psyonix? It's not because they wanted Rocket League so badly, it's because RL was a competitor they had the opportunity to take out while also trying to funnel as much of the players into fortnite (or at least that's how those execs would think it works). They're doing some cross-promotion nonsense for a while until it's time to pull the plug on RL and tell everyone to move over to the fortnite racing crap. They bought RL for the user base.

You missed a vacation or two in there.

No new content? then immediately complains about the new content??? what do you want they literally just added team boost visualizers and a whole new region for NA servers lol? both are new things that ppl have been asking for forever... Its a comp game, what brilliant ideas do you have for new content? because every single time i see ppl complaining about this they never have any ideas to add, they just kinda cry. And ignore the fact that new content has definitely been added. Knockout? The other new modes that basically nobody plays? Tournaments? all added after epic bought the dev studio. Trading change sucks but the vast majority of players were not trading regularly. Cheaters are not everywhere. I have over 16,000 games played. I would know lol, yall really are like lil kids dude stg, over dramatic about everything. also post ur tracker so I know im not wasting my time arguing with a braindead plat about the integrity of a comp game. Because ur takes really make it seem like it.

@@TheOhWulf both these things aren’t new content imo but things that should’ve been in the game a long time ago

​@@arminbilalic5691 Its new? No? Its content that is actually meaningful and has a decent sized impact on how the game plays? No? But yea its not new content because you think it should have been added at an earlier time...but wasnt. Makes perfect sense. How do you only address a single part of my comment and still mess up so bad wtf Also just going to ignore this entire bit just like I predicted you would?: "What brilliant ideas do you have for new content? because every single time I see ppl complaining about this they never have any ideas to add, they just kinda cry. AND IGNORE THE FACT THAT NEW CONTENT HAS DEFINITELY BEEN ADDED." and no tracker either. Amazing. Either braindead plat like I thought or cant read and thinks to just change the definition of what really qualifies as new content because.....? they should have been in the game before? WHAT? Patch notes are on the RL wiki. You can find all the updates since Epic bought the game and then after reading tell me there has been no new content "for years" plz.

@@arminbilalic5691 They are not new or major enough? Because they should have been in the game earlier? WUT? Boost on team8 names is a major change for comp play in 2s and especially 3s. You say you want “Hackers deleted” yes just like every single game that has successfully deleted heckin hackers! Which games are those again? Obviously! Duh how could i be so blind to not think of such a great idea. Thank god we have amazing minds like you on the case! Just do something impossible! Delete the hackers who are not even hackers! Even though real hackers infest nearly every other comp game in existence. Players abusing a few bugs is obviously an issue but its not as big of a problem as the copium addicts in this comment section would like to believe. Invis car players are not hackers. Its a bug. Its been in and out of the game for over 3 years. Check yourself.Youll find posts years and years old about it. “Ddosers” are not hacking either btw. Sever crash exploit/bug. Epic has ddos protection, some of the best around. And ddosing is a fel0ny offence. The scabs crashing servers are not hacking anything. It will get fixed. But the delusion that all of a sudden theres thousands of players with access to b0tnets the size large enough to take down Epics servers on a whim is hilarious. Like just think about it for half a min. What is more likely? People abusing an exploit in the game to crash servers or...there’s just all of a sudden, tons of ddosers all who emerge from the shadows within weeks of eachother and can take down servers worth hundreds of millions and they use it to win a few ranked games… against actual bots like you? Ya know just casually risking ten years in fed and a half a million fine. No biggie. Against Epic Games. A company notorious for ruining the lives of multiple actual hackers with lawsuits and legal fees… Also, Youre never getting UE5 rocket league. How do you not realize this by now? The entire UE5 leak and rumors were all about rocket league racing. You know in fortnite, the game with ue5 support and a brand new rl mode? Again, hilariously cute that you think that though. Any day now… Creation tools would be nice but lets not pretend like custom maps on pc are widely used by anyone for multiplayer. Nor would be even if baked into the game itself. Its a barebones comp game. Theres not much to experiment with, people hardly play the extra modes…because most of players play for the comp side of the game. Rl is not a sandbox and really wouldn’t work well as one. How do yall not get this 9 years into a games life span? Also both yall should take a look at waytons rl tracker. The dude hardly even plays the game anymore. Go free play if you’re so scared of the “hackers” by the time they fix the problem maybe you’ll actually have improved slightly.

@@arminbilalic5691 Wait… those new features added recently don’t count as new In your “opinion”? Huh… Because they should have been in the game at an earlier date, but even though they weren’t, but should have been according to… you? So they’re not new? what? You should try reading sometime. “New: not existing before; made, introduced, or discovered recently or now for the first time. “ Do you know what an opinion is? That is not an opinion. Thats a literal delusion youve made up entirely in ur own head. The content is new content… because, get this, crazy difficult, totally wacky concept: They just came out Meaning, they are factually 100%, undeniably new! It’s literally completely time dependent on the release of the point in time the content releases. It’s new because its been in the game for a few weeks and the game has been out for 9 years. Meaning its not only new, but brand new! None of this AT ALL is based around your terrible and objectively, factually wrong “opinion”. Of what qualifies as “new” i think you need a dictionary and to repeat the 1st grade. You don’t just get to decide what is new based on whether or not YOU think it should have been added already. That’s actually insane, that thats the level of mental gymnastics you have to go through just to come to terms with your own horrible takes on factual, objective things like … time? My opinion?: Seek professional help, youre actually batsh*# craaaazy or have a brain injury. Either way should probably get it checked out. Gl!

i believe in the comeback

@@gbamuchukwu6775 No, we need competition, without a competitor Epic will keep being comfortable with these terrible conditions.

I did the same thing

I quit as well when Fortnite started becoming really popular again and I’m glad I did. Rocket league killed itself, and I don’t see it coming back.

Yeah stuff like this makes me want to uninstall for sure. Unfortunately there's no game like it at all even remotely. So I just queue up and play for fun.

That’s not why hackers start tbh. They find enjoyment in breaking games. If epic didn’t take away the white hats and trading I doubt this woulda happened to the extent it has.

@@billyrussell8684yea but these guys are just losers

True. There also wasn't as many smurfs! Going f2p was a stupid greedy decision in a game that doesn't work well with that model.

I know that epic eas thinking: maximize money at the expense kf everything else

I'm convinced that Epic wanted Psyonix for the team and not the games, even though they ended up firing a huge portion of it. It's a real shame

hitbox standarisation was a good thing

you're just a crybaby it's literally the same game as before nothing fundamental has changed

@rossovergmd obvious bait (or youre just stupid)

That play has to be one of the most satisfying things that has ever happened in RL. It’s such a big “fuck you, you suck, go outside and play” to the hacker 😂

thanks for standing still wanka

how? use ur brain plz the devs abandoning us by adding a brand new feature to the game with boost meters on team tags? new servers? wut are you even saying? actually a 4head moment.

there's no way broseph got angry that someone commented about devs STARTING to abandon a game on a video about devs abandoning the game, which is showed by the lack of care and action taken against hackers

"use ur brain plz" @@TheOhWulf oh yes, nice new servers that have been requested for probably 8 years now. The boost meter for teammates is a great feature, that could also have been part of the base game 8 years ago. Did we need them right now? Not necessarily but it's definitely nice. What do we actually need now? Hackers deleted. New unreal engine to bring back more players + ingame creation tools. The return of trading to make the game feel less like a complete moneysink. It's just that the timing of this update makes it feel like a bandaid that is covering a festering wound which requires surgery.

they’re making fn worse

People still play that? I though that game was just a gimmick.

@@shaddr_4975 you’ll be surprised. Said no one ever.

Fortnite is struggling with cheaters too and epic still hasn’t done anything about it

@@darkmedos8452 Imagine if Epic sold Rocket League and it went back up on Steam, I’d be overjoyed, it’ll never happen but Epic have always been dogshit with Anticheat systems.

I quit 1 year ago with 800 hours and I have no regrets either

6k hours here quit a year ago xD cant even stand 5 mins of it now before turning it off

same i quit with 2k hrs in, game was dead a long time ago lol... no regrets

Me too and it feels really good

Same but i come back just to see how the game i used to grind a lot is going and its not looking so well

the community agreed to make it free to significantly increase the player base. people didn’t use to cheat because the a.i needed to cheat was absolutely garbage. but then a few nerds decided to have a competition on who can make the smartest and mechanical robot and they uploaded it for public use.

Real. Now you get a dunce cap for thinking Epic would actually do anything about it

Exact same thing with r6 on console, the top 50 are all elo trappers or dossers if you will

Agreed, I uninstalled rocket league, been playing since 2016, best decision I’ve ever made. I’ll wait for rl2 from a real company.

@@FalseDwightScrute lol

When u ruin a game completly people eventually decide its more fun to cheat than to deal with the garbage game its become. They ruined ranking, they ruined trading, smurfs are worse than literally ever by double, horrid serveres, and a speghetti code that makes it lag randomly. Epic games is a garbage company

Yeah, it happened to me in a game of hoops last night. I'm platinum in hoops. It's unreal

i should mention that c3 is rather high in ones tbh, its so much harder to be higher mmr in that mode that unless you main it you're usually one whole rank behind your 2s rank. im 1600 in 2s but my 1s peak is 1048 (c1) (from a couple of seasons ago but ive taken a break for most of that time so it doesnt really matter) i could 100% be c3 in 1s rather easily if i actually played it but no way im getting gc anytime soon

My guy c3 is high in 1 😭 you’re probably GC in 2s you’re being modest

@@keivinizaguirre9961 imo a high rank in 1s is gc1 or above

But if it gets outta hand, people will leave, and then epic will start to help cause they'll make less money with all the loss of players

i think they care but it can be a hard thing to fix. We dont know

they actually dont fix it for obvious reason ; Actually content x)

They don’t care unless you’re Fortnite

if your a game dev, you'll notice the problems in your games. (devs don't make games and then not pay attention to them.) if your a game dev, you'll notice that the biggest thing to worry about is money to keep funding the game or the time you need to keep working on it. and you'll do almost anything to keep getting those funds. especially if its a big game like rl. if your game has cheaters and nobody talks about it, then people usually just leave and don't play the game.. unfortunately then the problem is the fact that your game has cheaters in your game and is not good for business. BUT!... if your game has cheaters and youtubers find out that there's tons of content to be had(making them money), and the devs see that all this does is brings more attention to the game (making them money) while players keep playing it, then why rush to get rid of the cheaters?

There's a lot of people who already feel it is unfair when you can make a new account on a whim and the ranks are a joke now.

@@Icabod-os6rg im pretty new but im move up and down between gold and plat. one game we walk over people the next game a player does air drippling madness.

@@ReDHaWko Yep. There's too much variety in skill at each rank. I see champs who still wiff and make dumb mistakes

That's not really true though, CS:GO had massive cheating problems even in lower ranks way before it went free to play, and I'm sure there are more examples. Hell, CS:GO still had cheating issues in the paid queue after FTP was released.

@@Lasair517 That's a problem with enforcement then. I don't deny paid gaming can still have cheaters, but then that's on the devs to crack down and actually go after those people. Plus, if people stop buying the game because of cheaters, that creates an incentive for devs to reduce cheating possibilities. In FTP, it's basically impossible to stop, and there's really no incentive for the company to do anything about it.

@@steelerfaninperu I think you're wrong about a lot of that, but most of all I just want to mention how in a game you pay for, there can be a perverse incentive for the owners of the game not to crack down. Because cheaters buy the game again and again after banwaves. Unlike normal players. In the end I don't think the issue is FTP, not when it comes to cheating anyway. As long as there is known methods to cheat in a game, there will be cheaters.

@@Lasair517 yeah but people were just buying csgo botted accounts or from Argentina peso for 0.5/1$

@@Lasair517 FTP was a terrible decision, thats just facts. and they would have every incentive to crack down on them so that they would have to keep buying the game since obviously the banwave isnt strong enough

how could you tell? I have 16k games played over 4k hours and a college education in IT, Networking specifically. There is no way to tell, if the server is getting DDoSed vs normal regular server issues, a third party would have no way of knowing outside of tracking your ops on leaderboards or tracker. And even then there is no 100% way to. Especially on a game with servers this bad. But plz do share your great wisdom since you just "instantly" know. Gooofy bro.

​@@TheOhWulfdisclaimer: not a RL player. Sure you can't be 100% certain it's a ddos unless you've got server logs, but a ddos attack does follow a pretty typical pattern of service degradation quickly ramping up until no traffic makes it through. I do wonder if it might be some other DoS attack though since the server seems to crash very quickly. It could be something like a buffer overflow that people misattribute to ddos. Either way the result is the same for gameplay purposes

@@nolifeorname5731 In the case of RL the only way to really know if the server was crashed by someone intentionally is to look up their other games and see if this happens regularly with them in the game. If it does it's intentional, if not you have nothing as evidence to say it is.

Still lots of people playing it

Yall are soooo crings I stg, game is "dying" with 35k people on steam? Almost TEN YEARS after release???? Not including Epic launcher, and all console players? Steam charts is a free resource. You mfs act like actual drones, the only thing dying is your critical thinking skills. "makes sense" LOL??????

Dont make excuses for Epic being dogshit

smurfing isn't nearly as negative as cheats tho. also keep in mind that a lot of people are forced to play on alts to have an enjoyable experience with their lower/higher ranked friends without ruining the ladder. it's not something often talked about but that's a bigger part of the community than you'd expect

@@swagie_ but it does ruin the ladder at the start and end of every season atleast for my rank.. people r carrying their lower ranked friends for rewards which in turns ruins the ladder for people actually trying to climb Ive had my champ rewards for like 5 seasons and im not so sure about this one because every time i party up the other team always has someone on a unranked fresh 800mmr account while they r sitting at 1097 or similar in diamond lobbies its terrible and will never get fixed. Mmr disparity doesnt work with unranked accounts and they wont tighten up the mmr average between lobby match ups

Smurfing is present in any online competitive game and is really hard to prevent, it's not something exclusive to Rocket League. The only way I can think of to fix this is to require phone number verification for every account you make.

@@leodaweeb6969 The point is that they won't take any steps to prevent it. Because it affects their bottom line. You know that's a business. And I get it, but I guess it's just more prevalent in this game It's like you have to play at a certain time of day on certain servers to have better odds like est after 8pm at diamond rank its like every other game there is a fresh account if ur in a party with someone Its like u cant play in parties because the average mmr gap is not tight enough And unranked accounts have no rank disparity

​@@leodaweeb6969how exactly do you distinguish between a closet cheater and a "Smurf"? I'm honestly convinced that Smurf is a term cheaters created to gaslight legit players. The websites that sell steam accounts also sell cheats so I find it very hard to believe that people buy accounts with botted hours but not cheats

Yap yap yap

there was one person on Twitter who discovered that their washing machine was being used as part of a server lmao

I guess people use the term Ddos as a universal term for server crashes, like you said. I'm assuming most people don't even know what it stands for in the first place so it's mostly just used as a universal term since most people know what to expect when you say Ddos, that being the server going down.

I think he was talking about the record at the time

@@ste2586_ might be true but Zen's record was at the end of last season and we are already in Season 14 f2p which Wayton was talking about.

Key words "somewhere around, give or take" .........

whats funny is you all finally acknowledging and admitting there are cheaters and then actually believing 12 year olds are playing legit

I laugh at any hacker that stops me from playing the game. Use whatever crutches you need, kiddo. I'll still have fun learning to beat you. But kicking me from the game? That's just sad... you won't even try to win. That's how little confidence you have. You can't even try to win with every advantage in the world.

But at such high levels when getting a queue is so rare you are more likely to get lobbies that are just the same over and over again cause there just aren't enough people queuing

@@redvic83 ^ great point to add here. Man, instead of nerfing the game we should nerf humans. They're too op and predictable

@@xdeep_freeze3684 lol, I think they need to implement some sort of hardware ban so it's not easy to just make a new account to evade the ban

I typically have ping between 15-45 depending on servers. We were up 2-1 and randomly our cars went weird. Both my tm8 and my ping spiked to 200+ for the entirety of the match. Next game our pings were back to normal. Sickening especially when they say "EZ" after the game

lol remember when the game was less than 2 GB.... now its what like 37 GB? and nothing in the game changed LOL... make it make sense please ive been begging

"went from C2 down to plat in a matter of about 80 minutes because of cheaters and smurfs." This everyone, is delusion at its absolute peak. A single c2 could 1v3 a team of plats. you want us to believe you ran into SOOOOO many cheaters AND smurfs that in 80 mins you lost THREE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MMR? if you lost 10 MMR a game, (even being overly aggressive with this MMR loss just to prove how dumb this all sounds) it would take you 38 games straight of losing to achieve that huge of a de=rank. AND, We would even have to assume you FF every single game at exactly 1 mins 30 seconds into each game exactly when you are first allowed to. Doing this 38 times with ZERO downtime between games and countdowns gets you to 60 mins.. and you lost all that MMR in 80? hmmmmm A full game for context is easily 6-9 mins. Que times at C2 can easily reach 2-5 mins and it takes 15-30 seconds to connect everyone and load them into the server once a matchmaking has been found. you couldn't have played even a few full games while losing that much MMR in such a little time. And allllllllllll to smurfs and hackers too, who of course all had rank tags? even if you were TRYING to lose that much MMR in that time frame in you straight up couldn't lol. Physically impossible. Fully delusional. But you can prove me wrong by posting a few replays? Or simply posting ur RL tracker. Both are super easy options, But you wont and we both know that. :D and plz don't bother editing, SS'd already for the lulz

@@TheOhWulf I'll add something to the math, when a new season start, the gain and loss in mmr is greater than just 9/10 point, going for 30 and decreasing(it's not 30 for sure, but around that ~), I don't know the exact math behind that, but I usually just have to wait under 30 seconds to get a match, it greatly depends on the playercount at the hour you are playing at, and also the region. if we assume the dude was in losing streak since the start, got a bunch of smurfs (that's old news, everybody knows they are in a lot of games), go a tilted mindset and started forfaiting as soon as he thought it was cheater/smurfs/unfair. I don't see it as that much of a stretch, but I'll also add that when we are playing, times flow differently, so I don't see it as impossible to lose that much in 120 minutes, I could also question his 80 minutes ? did the dude use the addon to see the number of match played and just added 5+5+5 minutes ? I personally have a terrible experience with the game this season, it's borderline unplayable, smurf are a part, but, the amount of times that server played against me and my mate, going to lag for only one of us, but not everytime the same person, ghost touch, rubberband, fifty going insaly crazy directly in our net. add to that the amount of people actually scripting, the games when you end up against a champ and a plat in the same game, making it horrendous to understand since one of the two is dogshit, so the play is one time fast and the other time clunky and slow. it can kill your nerves to end up on the same type of match again and again, and strangely, now everyone knows how to flip reset and do perfect wall drag while being starved to death and with terrible rotations. I'm not trying to defend the op, but the state of the game is terrible, and we are all just watching it sinks to newer low

still no tracker, he wont ever post it and if he does there will not be an obvious 400mmr dip. Someone who rage ques 38 losses straight and blames outside factors entirely? they couldn't possibly be lying! right?... they obv just had the worst matchmaking luck of all time and def dont need to work on mindset or anything dumb like that... Are you a top 100 player? do you run into ddosers and invis players regularly? I have SIXTEEN THOUSAND games played on my profile. Est. 2015. Guess how many blatant cheaters ive ran into? with nexto, invis car bug (which has been in the game for literally years btw its just public now and assuming will be fixed soonish) and ddosers included? zero. none. not one. The servers have ALWAYS been pretty bad. they're 60hz servers on a comp game where fractions of seconds matter. They're bad at their very core lol. Smurfs are an issue on every comp game to ever exist. Especially in f2p. You can still improve even with the existence of smurfs, bad servers and even hackers. :D We just got the most impactful update in YEARS since flip resets were added with the whole boost meter icon update, we just got new servers in USC both things ppl have been asking for for 8+ years...There's not much to add to the game, there's not much to change. But pretending the game is in a bad state when player counts and recent update history say the opposite? Is it the game that's in a bad state or the youtubers who have milked it for all the possible content over 8-9 years and now have literally nothing left to address or be original with? The problems in this video are not things that the avg player runs into regularly. It happens, but not as often as the garbage cans in this comment section would like you to think. But hey what do i know? ive only got 4k hours :D

I'm not top 100, but I don't get why it would matter if I was or not, I'm at thirteen thousand games played and Est. 2016, and I got some, but it's not invisible players or ddosers (I got a few ddos tho, like 4 or 5 last season) but the cheaters are a real thing, I encourage you to look at "gos loader", it's not blatant obvious cheats, but more like a wallhacking dude in a fps could be, scripting is a real thing and I thought strange that now a lot of average players are doing way better than before and still be at lower rank. what I mean by that is that I've been hardstuck at c1 for a long time, but I've always been improving, so the stagnation was more because I wasn't going that much in ranked, but this season and the last one my rank sunk because the playerbase is doing crazy shit in a majority of games, like plats tagging whith their friend in champ, but the champ is normal, the plat in the other hand, can double/triple flip reset without sweating, but strangely enough, unable to defend simple balls going straight. the game IS in a bad state, I agree with you on the youtuber's rant, but that doesn't change the fact that the game is stagnant. showing the boost on nameplate was a nice addition, but why didn't they add that in 2016 ??? new server ? cool, why are they so bad then ? going from 70 to 60 ping for a lot of people doens't change shit (when they are stable, but they are not) what about porting the game on ue5 ? having a better netcode ? map making/game mode with specific rules made by players ? fixing bugs that are still persent since the beginning ? you do realise when you say that the addition of the nameplate boost is the most impactful update we had in years is telling so much about the staleness of the game ? epic doesn't give a shit, psyonix is just a shadow of what it was, they kept doing bullshit update one after another, doing pretty much nothing, even deleting og features, but because there isn't any alternative and the playerbase is decreasing slowly we have to say the game is fine ? keep living in delusion then mate, but don't ask me to think like you do. there is so much wasted potential with rocket league, and if you think they can't add anything to the game, then take a look at the hundreds of Lethamyr's concept/maps. yes I agree that the video is pointless, I'm used to it, I came here because I hoped he would have talked about the scripting cheaters, but I guess, youtubers are proving again that they are clueless on the matter. ps : yeah I have thousands of hours too, so ? ps 2 : at first I just wanted to nitpick at the math lmao

@@TheOhWulf @TheOhWulf player counts are high because of so many alt accounts ;D and besides opponent smurfs in party, boosted teammates in solo q also ruin it D=

Just a guess but the vast majority of people probably dont trade so the impact of removing trading was vastly overrated. I myself have thousands of hours but have never traded.

Not Fortnite. I’m frankly surprised that in every match I’ve been I haven’t found any hackers at all

@@teenageapple3788 Fortnite’s anticheat is very strong, but there is a big problem with hackers in tournaments right now

@@teenageapple3788 Correction, you haven't found any hackers you know of.

Well done on Liking the Thing

and besides opponent smurfs in party, boosted teammates in solo q also ruin it ;(
