The 30 Best Player Ideas for Rocket League

[@redd_rl]

my idea is to put a mechanic where players could like, exchange items or something in rocket league, maybe even exchange credits too. but it seems kinda out there, i don't think psyonix would add that

[@Rocket_Sledge]

This idea doesn't make sense and would never work. Dont do drugs kids.

[@benmiller232]

That is a terrible idea like who would even use that plus then we would have to lose cross platform items, obviously we wouldn’t wanna do that

[@InfiniXCat]

What are you smoking? That idea is horrendous... Who would want to get any item they want by giving others items they want? That would make the game p2w

[@SirWispy]

I really hope they don't add this. It is the worst thing i have ever heard of.

[@kaiglembocki]

Just want to say, I watch all rocket league content and lately I get most excited for your videos you found a good niche spot of just chill and talk about the game vibes

[@SALEENS7GTR5]

I thought of a cool rank reward yesterday: pregame spawn-in effects. When you leave a match, the lightning bolt appears where you car was. Imagine if that effect appeared with a 5 second intro of the team facing each other like you do with tournaments, and the cars spawned in eith their associated rank effect. Maybe cars would spawn in order to show off the effects or just all spawn at once. Each spawn effect would act like the lightning bolt, but of course be rank color dependent and get progressesively more flashy as the rank got higher. It would be something new as a reward, too, and since the assets exist already, probably would not be too hard to implement.

[@Rocket_Sledge]

That is a cool idea!

[@redwarrior2963]

A good reason to grind ranks imo

[@JanHennigMusic]

why has this comment only two likes??? thats such a cool idea!

[@JasonPhantom]

I always wanted a better looking garage. I liked how it looked way back in the alpha (which I saw from one of your earlier videos). You could even add a bumper accessory! That's so cool.

[@CbrF4i600cc]

Garage doesn't add to the game...

[@ForceOfNature45]

A bumper accessory would actually be sick!

[@Asiago-]

More car noises 😂

[@heatfangs8676]

4:57 now we have this map. It makes me wonder mabe psyonix is just very slow or just takes ideas from 5 years ago idk

[@Mightbefunny-]

Im pretty sure im not the only one thinking there should be a volley ball mode in rocket league

[@Knight0fTheSky]

It's one of those slam dunk ideas that they already did right in Sideswipe - you might need a smaller pitch unless you go for a 4v4 or a 6v6

[@LossBH]

drop shot and hoops were the closest things at the time (when drop shot was a thing) lol. volleyball would be sick af

[@dreamsdicc1817]

3v3 in dropshot map but bigger. The player cannot touch the ball twice in a row

[@St.Extreme]

The one with pitched Farmstead just proves that people will never be satisfied even if someone gives them exactly what they asked for

[@tibhamel]

Let's be honest here, epic didn't really give us exactly what we asked for 😂 when you take away so much from a game and give only that, I feel like the backlash is well deserved. I would have liked that map 3 years ago. Now that map can go to hell, I want trading back, dropshot in competitive, and actual new and good content that isn't cosmetics. Once all this is done, I'll be happy to get a prettier version of an already beautiful map.

[@Casta2]

The map definitely is a +1 but in the middle of a -10 it is still a net -9.

[@zlette]

Supersonic Dumpster along with the other "trash" ranks should be added as an April Fools joke.

[@TheDarkbluerock]

Oooooh I like that idea 😮

[@FNnametag3]

[@nine182]

That forest arena is AWESOME! I would really love to see something like that implemented.

[@fabi3475]

There is sooo much potential for maps but they add shit maps imagine a snowy mountain map or the forest map there are so many good ideas for nature maps

[@mrvna2840]

guess what

[@FrowzySquirrel]

10:36 what do you mean satirical mockups? those are real screenshots from the game

[@xSTONYTARKx]

PatrickN's shark goal explosion and brick wall goal explosion looked so clean, very well done. And I'd definitely use that shark goal explosion! To replace my titanium white t-rex Honestly this whole video is awesome😂

[@foxxo8349]

((I'll repost my idea from reddit since it got swooped away lmao) An actual use for Blueprints: With trading now gone, the only two ways of getting a specific item that you want is either praying it appears in the store and spending double the price on it or getting EXTREMELY lucky and get it from a crate. Or you can use blueprints to craft the item but the issue is these options make it really shitty for f2p's to get items and I'm not talking about fancy items but car bodies. Basically the idea is, let's say you want a fennec and you're broke and can't get credits or you're from a country with no online purchases available, a way to make it a lil easier for free to plays but encourage them to grind the game is if having a specific amount of blueprints for an item would either slash down the price relatively to how many blueprints you have of that specific item or having let's a specific amount that if met, can craft the item for free. The amount of blueprints needed should be reasonable to the item's rarity. Uncommons having 15 blueprints of the same item to craft it for free, Very rares having 10, Imports 5 and Black Markets 3. Either that or they can implement a system that's like Tf2's crafting system where you can turn items into scraps and crafting parts to craft a certain item instead of just relying on trading up items that almost always give you anything that you want. TL;DR: Blueprints could stack, the more blueprints of the same item you have the less it costs to craft and eventually you could craft it without credits (and the blueprints get destroyed of course.) or implementing a crafting system where items require certain parts that can get from scrapping down existing items.

i feel like a new rank should be added above ssl for the pros cuz it is unreal that we divide the greatest rank into high/low ssl

Feel like we’ve been here before… Not sure why I feel that way though. Must be the mandela effect..

[@WeirdlyBad]

Yeah true but you could add something like top 100 or top 500. So it's not much of a new rank but more of a badge/rank hybrid. Thus you wouldn't need to add more ranks all the time. @@ChaoTix.S

[@dawidradzikowski8775]

5:06 now we do :)

[@matteplatinum2839]

crazy how the community can make better ideas and put them into genuine edits and renders, yet psyonix is physically incapable of acknowledging the community and giving them even a fraction of what they want

[@Toshiro4619]

Yeah it's because only one really cares about it. After this long there is no reason to not have included a map editor in game.

[@juanvovoncebuitragogaleano863]

lol

[@K001AX]

Why isn't painted Jump Smoke a thing? (Titanium White, Lime, Burnt Sienna, etc., and also the certified versions). The jump smoke is the smoke under your car and using your second jump

[@ReiCaixa]

Gamemode idea: 3v3 with 2 balls. No goal explosion and no goal screen, you keep playing until the time's up. When 1 ball goes in, it shows back up after 10 seconds in the middle of the map. Maybe if the second ball goes in before the first ball respawns there could be an explosion and full reset. OR they could both show up TOGETHER instead of 10 seconds after they went in.

[@sanikfast]

My silly trash rank icons getting featured in a Rocket Sledge video and thumbnail was definitely not in my bingo card. 5:55 I still think of this map sometimes, such a great concept art. Shame thekillerpeanut's account is now deleted, hope they're doing well.

[@Rocket_Sledge]

The trash ranks are amazing!

[@sanikfast]

@@Rocket_Sledge Thank you! I'm glad so many people like them.

[@Knight0fTheSky]

A simple Yes and No in Qc would be nice as well as a BEHIND YOU! when you see an opponent going in for a demo on your teammate

[@billyrussell8684]

Incoming! Is already one….

[@Le-sos]

bro it would be actually amazing to have plasma tech in game as a mode or a separate game

[@optimumplatinum2640]

would be cool if we got stat breakdowns like in other traditional sports games, and maybe better ai for single player/offline? based on the movements and patterns of players, would be really fun to mess around with and know how someone else plays. maybe custom demos, from bitcrushed explosions to an egg omelet, or reactive decals like in other games

[@ForceOfNature45]

Custom boost colors would be amazing. It would be nice if you could choose from an array of color options and only *you* specifically see that color, not the opponents. It would also be cool to have custom bumpers😀

[@ray.9996]

5:00 who’s here when we have drift arena

[@korkoo1]

Just a quick thought on quick chats, couldn't these be toggleable (ON/Off) for team so you decide how many of the four directions that should be hidden to opposing team, but still be able to interact with all players if desired.

[@ZaneGomes-w7c]

[@garranator9681]

I just wish they would add multiplayer custom map integration. It’s only possible thought an annoying 5 step process that no casual player would go through. It would add so much to the game without much effort by psyonix themselves

[@Dhickead]

My idea for a goal explosion is the ball goes in and scores but shoots back out and turns in to a mini game of heatseeker until the ball goes in the net (idk what the 2nd explosion would be, maybe just standard, maybe you can equip a second explosion?). The ball would get progressively faster with every time the ball changes direction (faster than normal). The heatseeker goal won't be counted to any score obvs and most of the time everyone is down the scoring side of the pitch so the games usually wouldn't last very long the ball would just fly in to the opposite net and that's that, but for when there is someone back to make the save, it then turns in to a little game of heatseeker. It could definitely get tedious having like 5 games of heatseeker in a normal match but you could just always let it go in if you didn't want to play the mini game. What does everyone think?

[@billyrussell8684]

Gay

[@itz.serge9]

2:50 -I had the same idea, but instead of fire, three cars of Octane, Fennec and Dominus will fly out and supersonic music acrobatic rocket powered battle cars for 2 seconds

[@romanski5811]

I have an amazing idea: Option to automatically skip goal replays. If in the settings all players in a game have this feature enabled then all goal replays will be automatically skipped for the entire game.

[@WetyyYT]

congrats on 300K

[@HpermTheCuber]

My idea is “ahem” to ad a system where people can trade items and maybe credits. Oh wait “cough” they already had one.

[@Hdjvhrigj-gd]

9:27 WHO ELSE NOTICED WHEN THEY REMOVED THE OPTION TO MUTE PEOPLE IN GAME?? they changed it from “mute/report” to “block/report” and it’s so fuggin stupid I’ll just block them from the side menu I want to mute them smfh

[@bears7776]

congrats on 300k subs 🎉🎉🎉

[@Rocket_Sledge]

thanks!

[@rocketlcs8402]

They really should make a flying arena. Yk like in the air on smth. Maybe 4 Turbines could hold the arena

[@MaxGormley]

A Mario Kart style drift boost mechanic would be amazing… A. It would encourage powersliding + B. It would unlock new ways to get creative with mechanics (maybe you could drift boost off the inside of your goal after a save to gain height quickly without using your jump etc.)

[@aidenatorx99]

I dunno how doable this is but custom demo explosions would be kinda cool. Perhaps a 60s Batman style “Bang!” or “POW!” for example

[@TDM_]

To be honest they do have filter goal explosions and decals they all look awful in my opinion. Definitely could be made, but the current static image ones are like watching the show Chowder

[@galactikhex]

that shark explosion is insane. that should be added

[@redox4604]

The goal explosion based on speed sounds great, the splash at 0-10km/h would finally make more sense than an air strike out of nowhere

[@chemnitzel]

Videos like this keep me invested in the game

[@wesleyjewett6039]

Goal explosion - ball hits 10 pins for a strike. Rumble - ability to send or hit opponent that causes all inputs to be opposite for a period of time.

[@blakeoberbroeckling6306]

I want a branched out game mode called pick your poison where you enter the level of players you want to play ie a champ2 picks diamond1-gc2 then gets paired to play with anbody in the rank range that has c2 in their own range.

@@rlwynnharmonic6518 it's to help soften what's happening in ranked, and possibly be a huge upset to the smurfing epidemic

[@DarkChasm]

See, I don't care for most goals explosions, there are a few cool ones, but most aren't worth it. PatrickN, I would buy both your goals explosions!!! This reminds me of the backlash when they introduced esports skins. Random players seemed to make better skins in a heartbeat, but Psyonix seems to settle for "that'll do", for some reasons that eludes me 🤔

[@Just_maddalol]

i got an idea so we get custom demo explosions so we dont just get the basic BOOM! explosion but also some other cool ones

Sorry guys but my goal explosion idea from yonks ago is the best, and that is that Psyonix teams up with Pokemon and each pokemon has their own goal explosion, so you not only have to catch 'em all but you also get to show everyone how cool you are when they see your MewTwo "Shiny" goal explosion and they only have Squirtle standard.

An idea I have is that you can have custom quick chats so you can say you are a terrible player on controller without typing for 3 hours

[@williamdaughertyii3993]

i think you should be able to spectate certain games showcasing a higher and lower skilled player (or evenly skilled). then you would be able to bet on whose gonna win, with credits or anything else, making the earnings more for the winner and spectator based on how likely it was for the player to win the match. if the players are evenly matched then i think the spectator shouldnt earn rewards but the players facing off would now have something to play for. could be hosted as a tourney or regular match but separate for ranked or cas. maybe even hosted by epic and its only once a day or something. i just wish we could spectate random games tbh, at least that.

[@Dabliuuw]

My idea is that rocket league has the mechanic of walking on the ceiling without falling and even being able to boost there, new volleyball mode, pingpong mode, A category in the item store to sell your items, like items in an infinite category and have a better chance of winning liked items, mode with prediction of where the ball will go

[@Dabliuuw]

Also a new function to be able to create your own maps, boost amount increased to 125 or 150. Or even a 5v5 game mode, exotic boxes and black market, items that change according to the number of goals or victories, minimap where the exact position of the players is located.😅
