It's NON META time! This week we're looking at the corporate tie-ins that have become increasingly frequent in Rocket League, and how by the nature of them, they will never be able to overthrow the current favourites.

The Skyline is my favorite "real-world" car for competitive play. I originally got it because I love the car in real life (and I wanted the wheels), but I was surprised when it actually felt good! I still mostly use the Octane but the Skyline is a lot of fun. The Civic also feels nice to use, that's my close second pick.

Skyline and Delorean are always my go to outside of the homebrews. Funny that the Skyline is probably the most customizable and the DeLorean is the least. The inclusion of the Honda Civic Type-R as a Rocket Pass inclusion AND it being customization-friendly is an interesting/good step... I am looking forward to see how this works out in future seasons for them.

@VerdASMR Год назад

I love using the hyper cars, I dont mind the limited customization as I don't have very many cool decals on my account to begin with. I also enjoy any decal that remains the same regardless of team color, so I really like the true to life decals that come with the liscensed cars

I use the Skyline at the moment and fortunately there's a fair bit of customisation you can do to it. Before that I used the Jurassic Park Jeep but that was very limited in terms of customisation.

@rayandthejets Год назад

I used to use the skyline a lot but as a got new cool decals and other customisation aspects that couldn’t be used on the licensed cars I started to use it them less.

@michaelakadap924 Год назад

Not being able to customize those cars and the fact that they usually cost more than the third-party trader just means it’s a terrible idea. But for real I buy stuff way cheaper from other players than what they sell at the store

@slapshotjack9806 Год назад

One of the biggest issues I see with the customization is the fact that there’s certain aspects of the vehicle that it would interfere with for example imagine putting a crazy animated decal onto the delorian or the jeep wrangler that would ruin the whole theme because they were designed to mimic their real world counterparts as best as possible epic games would have huge issues implementing certain customization features for those vehicles because in reality it’s really to say HEY I like the jeep wrangler from Jurassic Park so I’m gonna play as it and it’s not gonna be anything else because I like it

@sweetooth123456789 Год назад

I'd agree with licensed movie cars and such, but they just released the Bugatti and it doesnt allow any customization at all honestly. No toppers, wheels, decals, or antenna.

I've been playing this game since its original release, so I've seen all of the cars you've talked about here. I'm a car guy so I do buy them and use them for a bit but at some point I'm always going back to one of my countless Octane designs.

@Oakest Год назад

I think the main reason why I like the Skyline and the Fords, is the customization options. While you can't use other licensed cosmetics, not having any options except for color (if even that) makes the car quite boring after a few days.

@tgsphantom Год назад

I bought the 2f2f Skyline and used that exclusively while waiting for the Ecto-1 to come back in store. When the Ecto-1 came back in 80/20 split between the two. I grabbed the older batmobile and used that in the rotation. Than when the new Nissan Z came out I have been using that almost exclusively. I'd say 95% of the time is the Z.

Great video Could you make next video about the different versions of the basic cars like the octane zrs and the other ones

@DoorTechnicianRick Год назад

Sometimes the hitbox is just forced upon the cars, like the dominus hitbox on the F1. The whole front wing of the F1 car serves no purpose since the hitbox only starts behind the wing. So sometimes it looks like you hit the ball but the ball just flies through the car

@doctortwilight Год назад

You forgot to mention in 2015 they had a partnership with Back To The Future, adding the DMC 12 from the movie as a playable car. I still have my Steam copy of RL with that car from the DLCs.

@Nerino Год назад

They usually feel so weird for me. Even tho it has an octane / dominus hitbox, I just can't get through this weird feeling when I play with these cars :D

@GankAlpaca Год назад

Many of the licensed cars don't fit the octane or dominus hitbox. They do it to sell more of the licensed cars since octane and dominus are the most popular hitboxes. When car doesn't fit hitbox the nose, tail (other sides of the car) usually hit the ball early or late.

@kendrick6740 Год назад

When I played with the Lamborghini and McLaren the one thing I felt was that the cars always feel so “small” compared to the game-made cars. Technically the hit boxes shouldn’t be any different but visually they feel thinner and shorter than even other flat RL cars and that makes them feel less intuitive. I wonder if this could be fixed as simply as just making them a little larger, and it would be good to see these cars used more frequently in RL.

@glibbylive4564 Год назад

i have the skyline mclaren battle bus civic and type r as well as the Delorean regret the mclaren as i rarely use it. but delorean is similar to the dominus hitbox which i play. i love the battle bus music that plays at super speed and the skyline i pop on every once in a while.

Also a major issue with licensed cars, is that even if they can be customised, it's only the animated decals that you need to collect from rocket passes or events, and they add noise to the car. You either have them clean and boring or noisy and flashy... They need normal decals. Take a Fast and Furious cars compared to Fords for example.

Thus not even going to try to download the game at all. Truly wasted opportunities.
