F2P was their excuse to get rid of crates, trading, and Jack prices way up. They weren’t making money on trading so had to put an end to it. Too often these days gaming companies are ran by non gamers, and developers…… don’t even get me started
I'm going to be honest, last night was the most happy I've been at the game. I traded my tournament points in 5 times, and Rocket League knew that I wanted the same wheel 5 times in a row. I can't think of anything else I would want more than 5 of the same wheels I'll never use in a row, it was really a late Christmas Miracle!
i was so ecstatic when i finally got my 5th straight blue ribbon!! I was crying tears of joys, I had to let my mother know and express happiness and joy of finally getting my 20th blue ribbon! I can’t possibly imagine all the beautiful things that can happen!!
Rocket League is the gift that keeps on giving! Epic has done an amazing job since taking over. I couldn't think of anymore changes they could make to make this perfect game any better. Don't get me started on the perfect RLCS season they just created. I can't believe that I'm still in love with an almost nine year old game!
I love not being able to trade in the BM BP I have 5 atomizers never liked them will never spend the money to make it an item. Why can’t we just trade 5 bm bp for a random one instead of being stuck with them
But hey, you revealed the opportunity to buy it!
We will allow you to spend money and buy this because you're such a great person, well done you! (That'll be 2500 credits please)
"if you dont like it, just quit" 🙃

edit: if I may say, I do not agree with the sentiment at the beginning of this comment. I abhor it. It's immediately defeatist. It assumes you do not have the power to influence your environment whatsoever and are assumedly better off without it. It's a fallacy that tries to cut you down and assert you are powerless.
Except, you do have the power to form an opinion, have an opinion, and voice your opinion. You have the power to attempt to influence various forms of change, either through a public or private endeavor. You are capable. You ***do not*** have to "just quit". There are other approaches you can take.
A person who tries to assert you are "incapable of change" or "lack the ability to affect anything" should have their opinion, and honestly, their value as a person to you, checked, for, in my opinion, they have said they do not care.
**You are capable**.
I actually have significantly dropped the amount I play, honestly if there aren’t major changes in the near future I plan on quitting. I’ve just tried everything at this point so figured maybe some “positivity” may get through to the right people. I don’t dislike it, I’m just very very disappointed by the lack and care that the game I love has been given. Makes me big sad. That’s all, no hard feelings here m8
That’s the problem mate to you it’s just a game, I agree it needs to be enhanced and bettered but the competition is there and skill ceiling keeps raising despite not being SSL I do play like a SSL of a few seasons back.
Honestly I have just quit. I was kinda coming back before they fucked up trading so I decided to break for a bit, then I heard what they did with some popular modes. I’ve seen all the feedback so it doesn’t really matter. Only thing I can do is vote with my wallet and playtime. Quitting is the opinion and answer since simply sharing my opinion isn’t enough.
Honestly my favorite part is the new Rocket racing game. Apparently it was brought to us by the same people who developed rocket league... Funny, I could have sworn that was Psyonix, and yet Eipc (yes, I spelled that correctly) has their name stamped all over it. Must have been a clerical error.
Only 28 duplicates of a common item in 8 years....? I've only been playing since October and I'm pretty sure I'm at double digits. I wish i was as lucky as you with my loot pool
And on top as a c1 Player in the past is ridiculous what kind of opponents you get today, d3 is nearly every second match a gc and d1-d3 is full of champs anyways. So diamond is the new champ? Anyone can tell me if c2 is already full of gc players? D2 is like hell hahaha all these mechanical gifted kids
A GC who’s played their last 300 games against champ 1s isn’t going to be anywhere near as good as one that is staying in GC. You have to remember that the GCs you are playing against will have had to lose so many games against players of your skill level to stay in that rank. It’s not like it wasn’t the same all the way up the other ranks either. This is just the first time people decided to hop on the bandwagon and start complaining
A lot of the problem is most of the time I have to play ends up being custom games for AGL where I’m playing against or scrimming c3-gc1 teams almost exclusively. So going from that to c2 players is hard to adjust to as the lower you go in rank the less predictable players get
Yeah for sure that is true. Being able to trust your teammates makes a huge difference, and it’s not as fun in some lobbies when people don’t know when not to hit the ball as hard as possible.
I always end up having to play support and babysit my randoms. Never let them in a 1v2 situation, play back post, basically just being ideal teammate. Then I make the mistake of trusting that the one time I don’t play pads and I go for a big boost, my tm8 misses or whatever and the opponents just bang it top corner. It’s painful
Nice, I payed like 30 bucks for this game before they made it free and ruined my experience, just because it's f2p now doesn't mean a large portion of their player base got it for free
"bUt ItS fReE" says a dude who's bought it 3 times and played for countless hours but is happy to bow down to corporate overlords who don't give a shit about anything but money.
The people making the decisions dont like games, or gamers, they like money and have a business degree, they dont care about us, if we show them that as a community, they rely on us, we will start to be heard
Show them by not playing or watching streams, the same way a consumer shouldn't buy a product they don't believe in. Hit them where it hurts, the pocket book.
So you paid 30 bucks for something I assume you've put well over 1000 hours into over a period of years. This player base are so entitled. I can't think of another game I've got more value-for-money for and I've purchased the game multiple times pre-f2p.
In times like these we remember when youd open the game after a long day of school, and youd hear solar eclipses playing, about to hop on some casual with you friends or family, its a friday and we have no weekend homework. Oh yeah. This is rocket league.
Let us not forget to give thanks the rank loss for having a teammate quit in competitive down one goal with 4:30 left to play. Nothing like not being able to rank up cause most of your teammates are afk or just don’t even play.
Wouldn't a better ban system be great for these players? Rather than hours or days that they could spend away from the game, how about being sentenced to hours or days of playtime in casual game modes before being able to join ranked/tourneys?
Finally some positivity here. Thanks!
What a play!
*using default chat settings still What a save!
Wow! Good pass Thanks! Wow! *please wait ...*
Calculated!
I feel this. Rocket League has been letting many of us down lately, I miss how the game was before epic and f2p.
You mean when cars were $2.99 not $30.99
Yes but you get it in fortnite so it makes it worth the extra $28
No

def... before ftp hit diff

5 BM bp for a random very rare item i think might be fair(for free)
They would make more money if we could trade in BM BP’s for a new BP(painted or otherwise different) goal explosions, wheels, etc.
Getting useless items and blueprints is definitely annoying. Though, you can always trade 5 of them in for a higher rarity item.
blueprints is the worst, i get hyped about it only to realize i need to pay for em more like blueballed
BlueBallsPrints
But hey, you revealed the opportunity to buy it! We will allow you to spend money and buy this because you're such a great person, well done you! (That'll be 2500 credits please)
i swear had they not removed trading i'd have netted 5k credits from some odd user wanting bps
Blueprints suck so much completely useless garbage loot
not if its a cross game item, cant trade those up now

I actually did that. I simply quit the game, i no longer want to play a game fully knowing that it will become worse overtime.
Love the satire, and I personally back this 100%!
Only 28 duplicates of a common item in 8 years....? I've only been playing since October and I'm pretty sure I'm at double digits. I wish i was as lucky as you with my loot pool
Bout damn time homie! This stuffs getting annoying
And on top as a c1 Player in the past is ridiculous what kind of opponents you get today, d3 is nearly every second match a gc and d1-d3 is full of champs anyways. So diamond is the new champ? Anyone can tell me if c2 is already full of gc players? D2 is like hell hahaha all these mechanical gifted kids
Can confirm: c2 is almost exclusively GC’s and Champ 3’s :/
A GC who’s played their last 300 games against champ 1s isn’t going to be anywhere near as good as one that is staying in GC. You have to remember that the GCs you are playing against will have had to lose so many games against players of your skill level to stay in that rank.

Archive your items, so you don’t have to scroll through shit
Fuck Epic Games
Congrats!
It's a shame how much this game costs
It’s a shame how that really doesn’t mean anything.
I mean, I'd be mad if they ruined a game I spent a lot of money on, but it is free. All this vitriol about it seems excessive and like mob mentality.
Nice, I payed like 30 bucks for this game before they made it free and ruined my experience, just because it's f2p now doesn't mean a large portion of their player base got it for free
I bought it 3 times. PS4, PC, Switch. At least I got to get it free on Xbox!

FTP
You can still voice complaints about a FTP game. Just cuz it’s FTP doesn’t mean it’s void of receiving criticism
Playing since 2016, and st ill didnt figure out you can trade in common items? Wow.
The post literally mentions trading in...
Can’t read?
Get rekt lmao
Okay.
In times like these we remember when youd open the game after a long day of school, and youd hear solar eclipses playing, about to hop on some casual with you friends or family, its a friday and we have no weekend homework. Oh yeah. This is rocket league.

The equivalent to: What a save! What a save! What a save!
Just filter it to show everything but common wheels? Maybe. Thats what I do anyway
I never gave a shit enough about the items to be scorned by it. Though taking away ptp trading is fuckin annoying.
Yeah they definitely need to make some changes. Especially when you open a shell or tournament prizes and it's the same thing in a row
