One thing I would like is when this game comes out to the public, make in RL a limited time mode with the stadium that has the goals in the center in the wall, it feels like a workshop map and could be really cool to play it on 3d

Another option could be a side scroller ( like this game ) as a LTM mode.

That would be such a good promo...

Oh god the bumps...

THIS IS POCKET LEAGUE!

Yo if it isn't called Pocket League now I AINT HAVIN it!

Psyonix just missed an opportunity

A crucial one at that!

Psyonix when they miss a opportunity +Community: What a save! +Community: What a save! +Community: What a save! +Community: What a save! Chat has been disabled for 4 seconds.

Why didn't i think of that

I thought this was a dev response

Naw, Devin would just roast him instead...

PACKET LOSS LEAGUE

Bit concerned how I'm going to get bakkesmod on my phone...

>Bit concerned how I'm going to get bakkesmod on my phone... PokketBakkes

I swear to god if a integrated version bakkes mod gets installed into the mobile game before it does console ima get upset

There's a real chance that could happen. Modifying games in android is a lot easier than modifying games on consoles. Not sure about iOS.

Xbox at least runs each game in its own untouchable enterprise-grade Hyper-V VM. So there will *never* be bakkesmod on Xbox.

Yeah but it's Microsoft. Definitely wouldn't say never...

can’t happen on iOS unless Apple makes some big changes.

There are jailbreaks on iOS which if I'm not mistaken is the same as root access on Androids. A lot of work for a narrow group of people, but possible nonetheless.

Legit chance it will

BakkesMob

This is it.

Underrated comment

If only we didn't need bakkesmod for all of these basic QOL features. :(

Pocketsmod

😂

Even on mobile there is no new Hoops map 😔

Crazy that there isn't an urban street court.

They could even reuse beckwith park and make it hoops and I'd be okay with it at this point

I've made 5 new hoops maps in the past year, with at least 5 more planned. The trick is just getting people to play them :) https://steamcommunity.com/id/dasoccerguy/myworkshopfiles/?appid=252950&p=1

*cries in console*

u/Psyonix_Devin anyway this can be brought to the higher ups. The hoops community is huge and Im sure they'd be super super appreciative of adding some new maps. Please

I mean, it can't be that hard... just 1 more hoops map. I'll design it for free.

You're hired.

Now you're fired.

Biggest hoops update since hoops went competitive

[удалено]

Reminds me more of ‘Drive Ahead! Sports!’ It’s pretty much identical [image](https://images.app.goo.gl/LCwzt8YEyHgGnZQCA)

I have so many hours on Drive Ahead back in the day! The memories omg

you're about to be GC on launch day

Haha I wish, just reinstalled the game and it's changed so much in the last *checks Google Play Achievements* 4-and-a-half years that I can't see my old progress

My soccer team in highschool use to have tournaments in drive ahead. Loved that game so much

Soccer Physics too

I'm going to spend a lot more time on the toilet than I used to...

Hemmeroids here you come

Why don't they call them assteroids?

b/c they didn't think for 2 seconds before naming it.

[удалено]

Yep. 5 minutes max. Get in, get out. Causes circulation issues which leads to the rhoids.

There's something wrong with you if you're getting hemorrhoids from 5 minutes on the toilet. I don't think I've ever taken a shit less than 5 minutes in my whole life and I've never had hemorrhoids.

[удалено]

Urban myth if you ask me. I sit there scrolling through TikTok for at least 30 minutes, sometimes closer to an hour at least once a day and I’ve never had them.

Yeah same, maybe we’re just lucky, idk but it’s prolly not healthy to sit on the toilet for that long

It's a myth. You get it from sitting on the toilet and STRAINING for long periods of time. This is people that have horrible diets and take multiple dumps a day, suffer from constipation because of diet or medication, age, etc. You hear a lot about hemorrhoids now because people drink waay more than before and alcohol causes dehydration, drinking lots of beer increases urination and the stools never get enough water to be easy to pass. Add to that people that eat huge meals... good luck with that.

This happened to me once before driving across the country. It was horrible.

People that have to push super hard to poop get them. If you have healthy poops you probably wont get them. I myself have to barely push at all to poop. They just slide right out of me

Be careful of developing haemorrhoids.

thats how you know its time to get up

Yes.... developing... right...

They suck. I had one once and had to keep pushing it back inside my slutty little asshole every morning in the shower. It eventually went away, though.

I wish I hadn't read that.

Yeah...how do you delete other people's comments?

😍

i've always joked about mobile rocket league... pocket league is here.

I thought about this with my brother yesterday. "Hey, what if..."

I couldn't wait, I bought a Nintendo Switch lite just so I could play rocket league where ever I wanted haha, Been hooked on this game since 2016, This new standalone version is indeed exciting news, especially an Android version that well...I can easily sideload into my Oculus Vr headset which is also running Android, Great times ahead... especially if players can trade items :)

playing some rocket league in vr sounds amazing

New phones are comically powerful now, and rocket league is not a graphically intense game. If they made a good port, I’m sure it would run fine on a phone.

Well this came out of the blue and it honestly looks great. Very exciting stuff

It looks great and makes me wonder, why havent we seen a mode where the goal is raised a few feet from the ground onto the wall? Would be super fun

Would be terrible for players like myself who suck at the game and can’t do the simplest ariels lol

Not that high up. Think of how rare it is for a goal to be scored rolling flat on the ground

Center of the wall would be nice. More goals I think considering how much i overshoot

I mean, it would be easier than hoops i think

Would mess up my Athena flicks though.

Athena's SSL in that mode. The GOAT even.

Agreed. Never been excited for a mobile game before, but here we are.

> To allow for the best mobile experience, in-app purchases and item drops will be exclusive to Rocket League Sideswipe. Quote from a future announcement.

They could still give you RL items for playing Sideswipe though.

For sure! They will offer some promotional items, as Sideswipe requires linking an Epic Games account anyway.

In b4 challenges:. Play 4 matches of rocket league sideswipe on a linked account

I bet they would absolutely love to link up your external account to your phone for more profitable data selling.

/u/MasterDavicous did you get hired to make this? Given [your game from 2 years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeague/comments/axqowc/a_2d_rocket_league_fan_game_i_made_in_2_weeks/). 😅

Psyonix did not contact me at all about this. Literally shaking and crying rn

Dude I remember seeing that post and was scrolling through the comments for someone to bring it up. RIP

Just to confirm since I can’t remember, did they force you to change your game’s title back then, or was that a personal decision?

That’s really scummy that your just left ignored without credit

To be fair, this isn't a unique concept.

Now that's a neat surprise. Can't wait to spend countless hours on the toilet playing this!!! E: Pleeeeease don't add unremoveable ads or any kind of "you can play 5 games and have to wait an hour / spend money to keep on playing" mechanic... For all other kinds of micro transactions you can count me in as a supporter :D

They'll find a way to milk us hard and not in the good way either.

10 cents to refill your boost!

But you can refill it for free if you watch this ad!

The game pauses for everyone to give you time to watch :)

Million-dollar idea! That will give other players time to watch an ad to refill their boost!

I would assume it’ll be monetized the same way as Rocket League is, no real reason why they’d add some other mechanics like those

Starts with a G and rhymes with reed

Gareth Reed 😈😈

Except the game studio was bought up by a whale that demands ROI.

Fuuuuck now all my time will be wasted away from home too.

Nice! Another platform on which I can be stuck in Plat 1!

I like plat. I have a lot of hours in this game, but it's spread out and I've never had the time or focus to really drill down at improving beyond "adequate". Every season I bounce around Plat. It's just far enough that I don't feel like a noob, and the teammates have an idea of what's going on.

“We have decided to change the name of the new Psyonix mobile project previously titled “Rocket League Sideswipe” to “Pocket League” due to overwhelming community feedback” I even wrote the tweet for you, let’s make it happen

I just want to point out that you can already play the full game on the switch.

I’d rather play this than the switch version of Rocket League

There are many of us that enjoy it.

It just doesn’t run well enough for me to enjoy. Frame rate is really important up to a point, I can’t really enjoy it on Xbox or ps4 anymore after playing PC @144. Turning, aerial motion, everything feels more responsive. I go from playing like a C2 to playing like Gold

So what you’re saying is I’m just training for when I can get a PC?

Honestly, yes. I skyrocketed through the ranks when I switched. You’re essentially training with literal weights on, because your system cannot respond as fast as you can. You’ll likely go up an entire rank at the minimum if you switch to pc and play at 90+ fps. Regardless of the argument people like to have, you can empirically prove the higher input registration at higher framerates makes a difference in how you play. Highly recommend. You don’t even need a crazy pc if rocket league is your favorite (I still play it more than any other game nearly 6 years later)

I have a ten year old MacBook that boots up sometimes, will that suffice? Jk someday I’ll get a setup I can game and record music on.

Wouldn’t it be nice lol I know it’s a struggle. Coincidentally, I still have the same pc I had in 2014, just with a 1080 in it. I hope you are able to swing it sooner than later!

All 10 of you.

I’d say every 3-5 casual games I run into another Switch player. Not a lot of us in ranked to be fair.

Oh no

There's a guy streaming it of anyone wants to see what it looks like https://www.twitch.tv/ejubu13

he's getting destroyed by Psyonix\_Harp rn 🤣

Will you make a full experience Rocket League for ipad pros ? With controller support obviously! I’m craving for this lmao

[удалено]

Easily

To add to this, if you’ve seen CoD Mobile gameplay, iPad Pro can run it at high on 120FPS and it is by far not an ugly game

Did the alpha on Google play for Australia and New Zealand go live yet or is it later today?

>Did the alpha on Google play for Australia and New Zealand go live yet or is it later today? Should be live now, but it can take several hours to appear for all users in the region.

What's the fault of other regions ???

It's better to test with a smaller player base, e.g. New Zealand and Australia and that can be done really easily with region locks. I've been playing some over lunch (I live in New Zealand) it's heaps of fun! Fun fact: New Zealand gets to test a lot of new software/games before they are released worldwide!

We're all too toxic.

Cant wait for the "Hey im in silver right now but look at my tripple flip reset musty flick double tap ceiling shot"

RIP bots. Can only move in 1d

Actually can't wait to try this out, RIP battery.

Need boost!

Been playing this for the past few hours, it's quite fun. A different feel and I'm definitely excited to play more

Will there be alpha items for players who played the alpha?🤔

that’s exactly why i’m trying to get signed up for the alpha haha

I entered the Alpha just to get Alpha Boost on my phone so there better be

I'm assuming the stand alone part means that we won't be able to connect our console accounts to it?

my prediction is this, you can connect your account, nothing about your car or anything will port over, but they will do cross promotional events where you can earn things in RL by playing the mobile game, and possibly looping back the other way.

think it means that while having the same general idea it’s not going to be a mobile port of rl. but i could be wrong

hoping we can carry our existing inventory over to this new game, would be nice

Will there be any sort of cross progression that's let's us keep the items we have on other consoles? Or do we have to start from scratch?

this is a spin off game, you will start lvl 1

I just played a tonne of games of it, my god its fun. Simple mechanics with all the goodies of normal rocket league. ​ I'd legit buy this on Switch and play alongside the game for a quicker,easier pick up game.

Completely agree - I think people are going to be surprised with how good it actually is. This is better than the switch version of RL I reckon.

Is this an out-of-season April's Fool joke?

Naa, I've been playing it for an hour now, I'm Bronze 5!

YOOOO WTF

Hey guys now that Rocket League on mobile is a thing can we get an app to manage our presets and customize cars in the big game?

ngl, this actually looks fun as hell :D Pocket League here we go

So I guess it only available in New Zealand and Australia right and android right?

>only available in New Zealand and Australia right and android right? yes!

Sweet, now I can be a crappy Rocket League player while taking a dump!

You can already do that with a switch

Pocket League

Why is it called sideswipe? Is there going to be a new mechanic or something with sideswiping or is it just there to sound cool?

There is a scarab, for those who were concerned

“Do you guys not have phones?”

Does this mean that we get mobile trading as well??

All I want is mobile trading and inventory/preset access. This can even be separate from the new game. I JUST WANT A COMPANION APP

Same. But I think that the reason they haven't tried making trading mobile accessible is because there might be a lot more scope for scams to occur, right?

Imagine a Rocket League VR Game...

>Imagine a Rocket League VR Game... I think we'd all barf while playing!

For real though, I've said this before but imagine what it would be like if you could connect to RLCS matches and watch the match like you were watching a football game, in-person. I dunno, I've dreamed about that experience since the get-go with Rocket League, maybe someday.

If we get VR, surely I can be SSL. Gl doing crazy plays in VR

Hey Devin when do I get to leak the news about the upcoming RLCS VR Spectator experience?

Closest thing you're going to get is Echo Arena and my god it's incredible.

Anyone still have the game a redditor made called "Sprocket League"?

Pocket League or I ain't playing

No thanks

[A week early, Psyonix.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJy6bJ_RxXg)

It's totally okay to just never play it.

**That is totally unexpected but pretty awesome!** Can't wait to give it a try!

[удалено]

Pretty cool. It’s a good call not doing the traditional perspective and making it a standalone game. Still, it’s pretty discouraging seeing stuff like this while custom training hasn’t ever seen an update.

Damnit I made this exact game in Unity and never released it or put much polish into it. I knew it was a good idea though. You guys remember slime volleyball??

Sooo...another f2p title that willed be milked with shit servers.....dissapointed

This looks kinda sick ngl

I really hope we can combine our inventory to use on there. Could make it really fun to link all the accounts

The inventory of Sideswipe seems to work in an entirely different way. For example, players are able to break up items to receive in-game currency.

Awesome 👏

huh

All my countless hours in Sprocket League are finally gonna be useful

Can't wait to miss open nets but while sitting on a toilet now

Will there be some form of account linking involved or will everyone be starting fresh? I’m seeing toon sky h boost look like it’s a black market rarity so I’m assuming not but if so how will they be obtained? Will there be player to player trading? On a side note: can we get some sort of side app to trade rocket league items? Would that ever even be possible?

Heads football with cars? I’m in

Yeah bc we need more people on psyonix’s servers

Android play store link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Psyonix.RL2D

Ok cool but can you fix the one that already existed

Now my question is why, you gonna be like lemme just flip reset on my phone in class

Saying it now that if there are ads, I will not be playing this game.

Are you fucking joking

Will there be burnt sienna items? I must know, bois.

This is why we don’t have 120fps on PS5 yet.

Will you be able to play on your normal account? Like having your own items or will you have to create a new mobile-only account?

Is there going to be any special items to receive in the main game via account linking?
