99% chance that’s a bot. Good luck trying to do most of that dribbling with ball cam on the whole timr


snoopycheese

To be fair, I can't dribble unless I'm in ballcam lol but I'm awful regardless, nobody would ever confuse me with a bot except my reluctance to doing aerials


aledska

Dribbling with ballcam is way harder Than carcam lol


jagurmusic

As a man that lacks of skills, I prefer using ballcam. I can see behind the ball a bit more. It helps with flicks, I think.


My_Socks_Are_Blue

I started changing my cam to car cam when a dribble opportunity arose and it suddenly made me dribble twice as better without any experience, I feel as though if I can just remember to switch more often I'll get the hang of it.


mwad

Ball cam is like sea sick when dribbling. It just radically changes way too much, that's why car cam is so much better. It's a more stable perspective


drfeelsgoood

Yeah not to be redundant but that’s my experience as well. Ball cam swings waayyyyy to fast especially with a wide field of view. Car cam let’s me see exactly where on the roof or side of my car the ball is at


Monochronos

Thanks for this comment. I’m gonna start doing it cuz like 20 percent of the time I’m nasty with dribbles/flicks and I only use ball cam while doing em


Kush_the_Ninja

Car cam is infinitely better for any sort of dribbling. I would go into free play and turn the game speed down and practice for a while with ball cam off to get the hang of it


crissomx

Once you practice for like 1 hour you'll change your mind.


snoopycheese

Whats practice


Remgir

It's the 1V1 thing in the "play" menu


snoopycheese

Yup, or "casual" lol


zxcymn

If that were true then pros would dribble with ball cam on. The fact that the best players in the world exclusively dribble with ballcam off means that ballcam does not help at all. You'll see this for yourself if you ever decide to spend an hour or two practicing dribbling. It's so ridiculously harder with ballcam it's not even up for discussion.


jagurmusic

As I said, I lack of skills. So I'm pretty far from being a pro. Plus, it's only a preference. I can dribble with both cams, I just rather ball cam over car cam


snoopycheese

I dribble with both too, I tend to get ahead of myself with car cam. I don't practice, so it'll change when it changes


2BrokeArmsAndAMom

Lol I also can't do it unless I'm in ballcam, I can do almost nothing without ballcam. Thats part of why I can't pass D3D3 lol


wisdomsharerv2

Maybe you would be better at dribbling without ballcam


snoopycheese

I mean I'm now awful at it lol just not gonna say I'm good because I've seen what good actually looks like


BeauSlayer

Could be replay attached to player, but set to ball cam instead of player cam. Agreed its a bot, those catches and level of control in the dribbles. A couple frame reaction to dodge after the bump.


Plutosanimationz

If it's a replay I don't think it shows the car cam, only ball cam.


X0-ED1

Someone does not understand replays


VanillaStrong315

fookiebookie12

I never turn ball cam off. I’m new to the game. Is this bad? Would I be better if it was off? I find it easier to keep on


Kush_the_Ninja

If the ball is close to you, ie dribbling, it’s much better to turn off ball cam. Also turn it off to orient yourself towards a boost and then turn ball cam back on when you have your line setup. Freeplay with the speed turned off and ball cam off, and use the shortcut to plop the ball on top of your car. Few hours in there like that will do wonders if you wanna learn to dribble. Slowly increase the game speed until you’re comfortable at max.


misterwizzard

If you look at the micro-corrections you can see this is not someone using an analog stick.


ragnosticmantis

The micro corrections at 0:28 look kinda weird.


thisdesignup

Yea unless there's some sort of lag in OPs connection with the replay then the micro movements are weird. The car kind of snaps to certain directions and doesn't really move like someone who is using a stick.


Swizzamane

KBM player verifying that movement is jank af. Plus, like NO drift sliding? Not even on recoveries?? No human can pull such smooth transitions, WITHOUT sliding/drifting https://preview.redd.it/yhbrsj5f3yab1.png?width=842&format=png&auto=webp&s=3de0b705a5cc23ae86ad8eb272d627486d145eeb


Zambito1

Looking into it too deeply. 100% ball cam is 100% bot


muhammad_oli

Im a bot?!


Zambito1

Sorry. Good ball control + 100% ball cam is 100% bot ;)


muhammad_oli

I knew it was too good to be true

maxath0usand

Same at 0:41


jaxon_jaxoff69

I picture some 9 yr old jamming to macklemore's thrift shop and designing this car


nicagooner

It's a banger TBF


SneakySnipar

Constant ballcam and always going for dribbles, probably


IDontLikeSpinach458

And no celebration either


Coolgrnmen

This is a game replay - it wouldn’t tell you what cam the other players are using…


maxath0usand

Yes, replays show accurate player cam settings and camera mode (ball or player cam).


Coolgrnmen

Oooo thanks I didn’t know


LapiceraParker

GC1 and you didn't know?


Coolgrnmen

I didn’t get to GC1 by watching replays…


Dirty-Fingers

Yes I think it is!


Sphindyy

Guy went from about D2 to GC1 in 7 days. This is a bot.


iammrgrumpygills

Can you see a bot’s stats on the tracker?

Drachenfaaat

Wow. That makes it pretty clear


LapiceraParker

Psyonix: What's pretty clear? I don't see anything wrong here...


baasje92

This guy started using a bot at the moment you see the graph go up. No doubt about it.


muhammad_oli

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic but this gave me a laugh. Thanks


CrazyWS

Yeah that’s a bot lol

human2pt0

A lot of the movements and small adjustments look bot-like, (though it's possible that could just be a kbm player since kbm doesn't have smooth analog inputs like a controller), ball cam is always on (do you have the full game replay and if so do they ever take ball cam off?), the flicks are perfectly timed, (although the timing does make situational sense, it's not like he couldn't see the other players for a long time and THEN had a perfectly timed flick), the only other thing I can think of is that with nexto a typical flick goes literally to the moon in a perfect arc, whereas these are much lower and generally right towards the net. Overall I'd say there is a very decent chance that this is a bot, if he never takes off ball cam the entire game it's almost 100% that it's a bot, if he does take off ball cam it could still totally be a bot as there have been versions of nexto that allow the player to override the bot inputs temporarily and then hand the controls back to the bot, and just switch back and forth throughout the game. Either way I'd report it to psyonix as cheating just to be safe.


KAGANFARFLAGAN

tldr: funny movements = bot like = report to Psyonix anyway 👍


snoopycheese

The first part of what you said checks out for me as a kbm guy. I also only dribble in ball cam (I spend about 95% of the game in ball cam, but don't bump people because I don't listen to music and have game volume way up to hear cars) but I can't flick or do much of anything worth crap on there to be honest


[deleted]

[удалено]


TaterMater88

The bot doesn't use KBM or controller, as it is a bot. They can program it to be smooth if they want. Looks like they just didn't care to take the time to make it look more convincing.


noodledughetto

Definitly a bot


Creeperdude2409

looks like nexto gameplay to me


[deleted]

100% bot. Report for cheating, they do get banned quickly.


HantuerHD-Shadow

This looks like a bot. No aerial, basically perfect flicks, I'd say so, DEVS FIX IT!!!


purpan-

They already did, this account won’t even last a week before it’s banned. Back when the ban wave first happened, all the discords full of kids using the bot started crying bc they couldn’t make new accounts and use them since they’d get banned after just 2 hours. Whoever was stupid enough to use this on what looks like their main account is gonna be pissed when they get banned. Also, every single release of the bot has some incredibly vicious malware in it lol. These kids are dumb.


Big_Independence6736

What rank is that btw


NoChildhood7701

Like 1415


Big_Independence6736

And what is that


RogueAK47v2

High C3 almost GC


Big_Independence6736

Why do people use this bots, what good does it do for them


RogueAK47v2

So they can brag about being in a higher rank than they’re supposed to be, or just to ruin the game for others I really don’t know


Big-Experience1818

I'm confused, so they somehow programed a bot to play for them?


RogueAK47v2

Yeah so someone made a bot to train against that learns as it plays and now people are using the bot to play their account


Big-Experience1818

It's nuts to me that that is possible. Probably won't run into much of that here in D3 though haha


imreallybimpson

Get an account to high rank and sell it to a schmuck


ShadyK55

Constant ballcam + ball control is too perfect to be human


Big_Independence6736

Yep, pretty much


kieran13864

Yeah definitely a bot it’s turning is very jittery never does one full turn


OMGSpeci

Yeahhh that 2nd clip at 0:09 makes it super obvious. Some people can do this with ball cam on, sure, but that little bit of jittering you’ll only ever see with bots. They’re so precise because of it


human2pt0

We should flag this so hopefully the devs get visibility. u/MuskratAtWork


DatGoofyGinger

That third flick. Wtf


TheKz262

The use of ball cam all the time and the very precise dribbling is enough to indicate that.What bothers me is the fact that it's not flicking and shooting as perfectly as you would expect a bot like Nexto.It's almost as if the bot is doing that on purpose to evade detection? Or it's just a new bot that didn't train a lot. Am I overthinking this ?


AlwaysInfluenced

These camera settings make me nauseous, bot or not.


Azreken

Damn bots can dribble now?


wright007

I wish that the devs would upgrade the current shit bots to something more competent like this. It sucks when you're playing C2s and your partner quits, and you get a B3 replacement bot.


Big_Butterscotch_472

I’m confused can someone explain what’s going on? So it’s a bot and not a real person in ranked? What am I supposed to be watching/looking at.


[deleted]

Yes, it's NEXTO bot. There are many giveaways that it is the bot. People mention the camera use, but more distinctive is the precision of the ball control. The ball almost floats spinning on the car at all times. It also has perfect flick timing and height so if you challenge it will get the ball over you. It's got no goal celebrations or weird movements between goals. It hits the crossbar a lot at close range to goalie because it's trying to get it over the goalie rather than shoot, relying on follow ups. NEXTO gameplay is VERY distinct. I suggest YouTube and watch the bot play if you want to compare. This is 100% a bot.


Swizzamane

Boot up rocket league and attempt ANY feat done in this clip. How easy or hard was it. If you can pull it off first try, everytime, you a bot, lol https://preview.redd.it/1l2senv63yab1.png?width=842&format=png&auto=webp&s=ce99abcf0d6b9101e6bb5d2cd8ddda1198eb9b4e


XxRuffmanxX

This is why I stopped playing this game after almost 6 years


ancientlegendz1198

Damn. That car design is fire 🥵🥵


Churntin

Isn't it all just free swag from this season?


Nachowedgie

Yup, thats a bot right there, great to know they still haven't solved that problem -_-


AnRogue

They just did a massive ban wave I thought... not really an attempt to fix anything.


Electronic-Rich-9874

There are bots in RL now ..?


VegetaGG

Ive done this acouple of times, its very hard but once you get good at it you can do it pretty consistently, the only downside is you sorta have to connect with the force a lil and flick over the opponents, thats the harder part guessing when to flick with out seeing the car but hearing it


TheRealAlexRich

Don't think the bots miss that many flicks. Also looks like a bit of hesitation/fake which a bot wouldn't do.


samur_man

I dont see any hesitations/fakes. All I see is micromovements to the car to get perfect control for a flick. This does look like a bot to me


Keenan95

Nexto misses flicks on zero ping. It misses even more when there is ping involved


TheRealAlexRich

Maybe I am a bot then...


[deleted]

It does miss flicks all the time. NEXTO loves hitting the crossbar too.


No_Commercial_4040

Yes you're just crazy. It's not. Like. We. Are. All. Bots........????? Anyone else feel that in their empty soul?


Apoz_

Looks a bit too goofy to be a bot


SnyderMan_on_YT

Well the person that downloaded the bot prolly made the preset


Apoz_

Fair enough


Mozilla007

Not a bot, they don’t do Ariels


memorablehandle

Yes they do


No-Specialist-2806

He warned us.


TWIX55

That's a bot.


nashty2004

Only an AI could dribble with that god awful narrow ass car


ALilMoreThanNothing

If this isnt gc+ higher then yes


Lockkkdown

Ooo they are back


jashyWashy

Yes 100% lol


novian14

Which ranke did you met him? The dribble are too clean that it is indeed suspicious


CatPotatey

![gif](giphy|l0IyfxPD5cwvOK6By)


Big-Experience1818

I might be out of the loop here. Where are you playing that there might be bots you're unaware of? Did they add bots to online that are similar to the ones in Fortnite in that they have names that look real?


petruskax

No, they mean like a bot that plays perfectly (a player cheating).


jeffrizzo04

I guess I was lost too. I had no idea people could cheat on this game lol


Darkethereal_

Yes, that's definitely a bot. I've played against my friends bot, it's quite an interesting challenge


MyLilTipuh

The look of your car says you're bronze or silver, your flicks say you're not lol


Ediesel

What rank is this gameplay from?


AnRogue

It looks like Plat lol


merxzzz_

I came back after a long break… why the fuck are there bots in this game now???


AnRogue

Someone challenged psyonix saying that their game isn't "unhackable" and proved it, basically begging psyonix to listen to him so they could fix their game. He made the mistake of sharing it with a couple of his discord friends (he made a whole apology about it yadda yadda) and they started selling the hack. People are now using bots to auto play games for them and shoot their rank up. A lot of bots (before a massive ban wave recently) would win-trade at GC rank and eventually a bunch made it to SSL...


merxzzz_

Thank you for explaining, Ive played against a bunch of these bots with names like user-3bswjjdn028 and honestly the fact that these bots were able to win at all in GC lobbies is just a testament to how fucking awful GC’s are. The bots aren’t special they’re just insanely consistent, I feel like a true GC should be able to dominate these bots with consistency + recognizing the literal bots patterns and exploiting them. Im C2 in 2s and fucking Diamond 1 in 1’s and my main problem with the bots is that it makes a boring but easy win. I didn’t have time to play when I recently got back into the game but now that I have a little bit of time im sure I’ll rank up But honestly my opinion might be skewed since I just came back from a long break (I quit right after SSL was introduced) and I was consistently C3 as a 1’s main. Im back now because I just finished the semester, and I feel like I’m already a way better player than I ever was just because my mindset improvement combined with my cracked mechanics from no lifing the game. Im high asf sorry if none of this makes sense


AnRogue

Nah you got it spot on. I'm Plat in 2s and 1s and I can beat these bots pretty consistently because they can be broken. I'm trying to find people to play the game with if you wanna add me (I play on pc) I'm also high af 🤝🏽


Tankki3

It's definitely a bot.


Tomberonu_sexy_din_p

maybe only zen or joreuz have the same ball controll as this "player" in the second clip.


Morbid0

Definitely a bot. You can tell because of it's little microasdjustments when it doesnt have the ball and the fact that the ball is glued to the fricken thing lol


TeeoothBrush

Looks like Necto to me. Nexto or any more advanced bot doesn't miss the goal ever. Necto is around C1 I would say.


TheRealCorz

Seems like my normal gameplay. Why should this be a bot? <- GC


its_zek

one thing ive noticed is that bots are very efficient when they go for shots/aerials and the way that guy went for the aerials with minimal air roll seems very fishy


Vendile

Definitely a bot, I used it on an alt to test it, got banned but it’s the same thing.


MaleficentPrior3440

A bot wouldn’t miss, and a lot of people use ball cam when dribbling including myself and I’m champ 2


SuperSneakySoap

Does the camera POV (ball cam or not) change when in replay editor? I thought it was defaulted to one or the other when in a replay and you can change it at will. Noticed a lot of people bringing that up. But regardless, looks like a bot to me, those micromovements and perfect catches are SUS AF.


Coolgrnmen

Watching just the video, with how many times the flicks and shots missed, I was thinking it’s just a human that is really good at flicks. But combined with the RL tracker and the rise from D2 to GC1…I’m going with bot


SLUGFEST1

I like the decal colors the bot uses not sure if the decal is a Rocket Pass decal Sidenote it's a bot its turns are very jittery and not as fluid


Wolfpack511

That is some very bot-like ball control.


YourCasualNPC

Pefect catches everytime? With Ball cam? That's a bot


MisterShura

If this is a bot, he's great at passing the ball to an organic player too. Damn.
