wanted to make this video not to purely bash Epic Games, but to voice out a lot of concerns from the community that I've seen these last few months in hopes for a better future. looks like they actually came out with a solid update yesterday so I'm hoping for some shift that can really push Rocket League in the direction of it's potential. 2024 is the year that likely makes or breaks Rocket League

There was a time in my past where I was extremely down and my head was full of dark thoughts. Rocket League was an outlet for me during this period, I sunk in over 300 hours into this game - more than any game (I'm not much of a gamer). This is when I discovered many of the RL pros and creators like musty, and would religiously watch them on KZbin and twitch. I even followed all pro events regularly. Thinking back, all of this was a big blur in my memory because of the depression I was going through at the time but this video helped me remember the good parts of those times, when I'd just get lost in RL for hours and sometimes even meet some cool people through the game. This game has a special place in my heart and I hope Epic games really gets their shit together and undoes their mistakes. Pains me to see this game dying because of damn fortnite, jeez. I just went back to check in on all of the RL creators I used to watch and it's safe to say none of them are doing good in terms of views. Rocket League needs a resurgence and I hope that happens before it dies down beyond the point of no return.

@JUNK_ZONE10 ай бұрын
Nope. This wasn't a mistake. They probably needed to stop trading to close the window on player's items/accounts from being accessed through whatever ways in are left open BECAUSE of that crossover between RL and Rocket Racing. So, have trading and potentially have your account hacked/lose your items/account or don't have trading and retain what you own. Sucks, but that's it since they most likely wouldn't even know where to look when it comes to backdoors into accounts, especially for this game they'd prefer to have in working order ASAP for as long as possible without having to do any upkeep.

Then we wondered why there was no Fall Major a few months later (eventually realizing this was abnormal for RL). Later in November, I made my first trades and got some awesome, rare items just because I knew it was ending. Now, I wish I traded much more while it existed. The past few weeks of RLCS have been exciting in 2024, but it won't continue if they defund pro play. Squishy retiring is just the tip of the iceberg. I hope they make some changes.

They want little effort on these games and massive profits, unfortunately rocket league doesn't bring them that. Which is a damn shame, because the core of the game is unmatched.

I'm not a DS main myself, but I feel bad for those who are. I have tons of time in the game and love it, but I play it less and less now. I thought Rocket Racing was going to be in Rocket League-- I was grinding the monaco-style track in Rax's Rocket Park map, grinding down lap times and BAM! RRacing was in Fortnite. That killed the drive for me. I play FN for FN, not for RL. And then there's all the smurfs. Rainbow 6 just *introduced* trading after 8 years and that community is stoked. It's just depressing whenever I think about grinding in RL for any reason at all. My passion has dwindled, and Epic has done nothing to rekindle it.

My only other idea as to why they did this besides what musty said is so people buy credits for the item shop instead of trading items they already own

Rocket League is the only video game I played with my brother who passed away 4 years ago. The pain I feel knowing that Epic Games is destroying this game and not just the game, my beautiful memories with my brother is unforgivable. I really hope another industry saves the game and the community.

If people want something to change, you gotta do something that somewhat hurts them, like stop buying any items for weeks or months. That has to be pushed by every creator tho

That’s a double edged sword. Epic would more than likely say “welp game is dead let’s pull the plug”

I started playing this game in summer of 2018, and it’s one of my top 3 games ever. But it all started to go downhill for me after the rank change update. I was champion 3 around then, and now, I can’t even get past champ 2 when in correlation to the old ranks, I should be grand champion 3. Such a pointless thing to change for me, and all it did was mess up the ranking system and make players without a duo partner unable to rank up effectively.

New Game Mode Idea: Dodge ball, if a ball hits you you evaporate until your teammate catches it with spikes and then you come back in. The ball itself will bounce back and forth like heat seeker

I had left rocket league not short after the inroduction of blueprints and removal of crates. Although crates were fun i understand the gamling infliction it had. Non the less i returned month ago and although i enjoy playing...it isnt the same. And i have like 7 heatwaves bruh im so sad. Hopefully this message will be the 1st step back in the right direction

Losing crates hurt, but losing trading completely killed my interest in the game. Trading for me was a game within the game

to be honest the removal of trading was on my bingo card for over a year. I don't think people understand how big the problem with account theft and fencing stolen items was getting. Basically is creating a situation where underage children where getting in to selling stolen goods, even if they didn't know it. This was a media nightmare waiting to happen. If you bought original reapers from someone, there is a good chance they where stolen from somebody else by account theft.

They still haven't even removed the trading achievement, which shows how little care went into that decision or any decision made since
