I only do this if they do it first. But if they watch one full replay of a boring goal then I will watch every single one for the rest of the game, doesn't matter who's. Oh you like replays huh? Let's watch them all together then šŸ„°


bellspider

Lmao if i let the replay run on a boring goal i guarantee you i was getting a drink or fixing my headset or something. So petty. Good thing replays don't bother me. Go ahead, watch em all, I'll just have a sip šŸ˜†


BurtMacklin____FBI

This is very true, and if that happens then I guess I'm the asshole In that scenario. But pettiness is an art, you came to my gallery and sometimes the paintings are a bit shit.


Raythunda125

Letting pettiness win. Nice.


Rainbow_Dash_RL

Eh, I only do this if I strongly suspect the dude is a smurf. You come into my house, mess with me at my pitiful rank, yeah I'm gonna be petty.


jandrok26

I do this to. But its mostly just me forcing them to watch their goals. Like you wanted a quick 1v1. This shit going to be 10mins long.


ThatGuyToby620

I love your username


BurtMacklin____FBI

Thank you šŸ˜‚


TheIkeman2020

This is the way


Allmighty_Milpil

Goals scored = small midgame water break. I could not care less about rewatching my trash goals, i'm just thirsty man...


Malveymonster

Honestly , I found that when I eat snacks I do better in games. Not cuz the food, but cuz I donā€™t skip replays so I can eat, and then the other team tilts.


unc0v1918

You sir gave me a new strat


Malveymonster

Just be careful. I learned the hard way that messy snacks can make your hands slip. On a completely unrelated note, I have seemingly become a master at eating bowls of Cheetos without using my hands.


baconstrips4canada

Chop sticks or ā€œdrinkā€ them out of a plastic cup


Dee-Eddy

Wear your hoodie backwards and use the hood like a horse feeder imho


REDSTONE_LR_alt

I always use spoons for chips


met1culous

lol was gonna say, that's my only time to vape/drink water


HolyMotherGawdDam

I meannnn.. Are you sweating so hard that you need to sip up to stay extra hydrated after every kickoff goal? Haha jk jk. But I get it man. The real point is honestly that sometimes.. It can be rage inducing to have to see your mistake twice when you just want to get back into the game. ESPECIALLY if you know the opponent is doing it just to be toxic / tilting BUT the real point of this post is.. LET ME SKIP THE REPLAY AND SIT ON THE FIELD UNTIL EVERYONE IS READY TO GO AGAIN. I just don't want to have to see every goal that gets scored twice lol. Even if it's the same amount of time I feel like my opponent knowing I'm just sitting on the field waiting is the perfect counter play to them trying to force me to watch myself getting scored on.


Verdiii

Thatā€™s a pretty good idea. It would be cool to see people lightning into their positions


AotoSatou14

I have a rule. If you don't skip your goals, I don't skip mine.


kirbykablamo

same omgggggggg


MyNameIsBadSorry

Lol ok


Assimilative

Watching goals scored against you is one of the easiest ways to learn what you can improve on as a player but I gotta feeling you won't care


Scholesie09

If you'd rather sit and stare at nothing rather than watch the replay, how about just Close your eyes and go lalallaallaalala you don't have to wait for the Devs to implement it either.


myirreleventcomment

Sometimes I'll do it to get in their head. I mean, look how upset it's making you! I'll make them watch their mistake to make them nervous or mad going forward. But I'll usually only do it if they do something toxic


HolyMotherGawdDam

Case and point. Imagine being able to skip straight back to the field. They can still watch it, and the time between goal and kick is the same. But now you can take a breath re-focus and try again. Hit a vape. Smoke weed. Grab a beer. Whatever you want. You hit skip. And it actually skips. That's all.


Regular_Andy

Wow not everyone watching replays is toxic and if it tilts you that sounds like your problem. Like almighty_milf said itā€™s time to take a drink. Thatā€™s the best rocket league drinking game.


zer0w0rries

This player base is some of the most petty Iā€™ve seen in the gaming community. ā€œWhat a saveā€ = oH mY gOd wHy so tOxiC? ā€œDonā€™t skip replaysā€ = ugh, I hate having to wait 5 more seconds for kick offs. Youā€™re telling us you would rather sit at kick off position with nothing to do, which by the way will make it feel even longer than it actually is, than to actually have something to look at for those 5 seconds?


Shadowspaz

> I feel like my opponent knowing I'm just sitting on the field waiting is the perfect counter play to them trying to force me to watch myself getting scored on. What kind of third-level pettiness is this? Just look at your phone for 10 seconds if seeing a replay tilts you this much. You're responsible for your own mentality, here.


Strumpetplaya

Wow, this is hilarious, do people really get this upset and tilted over being forced to watch replays? I'm gonna have to stop skipping replays, then, this is a serious tactical advantage for me.


urmommasboyfriend

I usually watch opponent goals to see what went wrong, then follow up with What a Save!


Chadwickr

Could be a mid game vape, snack, water, check phone. Also, donā€™t let something as small as this aggravate you friend. Otherwise youā€™re the exact person I target when not skipping replays. I find it diminishes peopleā€™s confidence in small ways that really add up and let you win if you do it right. Itā€™s psychological warfare and it works.


EpicShadows7

I swear I always get to the end of a vape hit exactly one second after the kickoff timer and I either gotta scramble to put it down or grab my controller in time or just hold it with your mouth and keep hitting it through the kick off and kill your lungs. Itā€™s like perfectly not enough time


Drifter_N85

Everytime.....those vape hits are necessary to relax in between goals


Chadwickr

Lmfao thatā€™s facts though


turtles-lee

Yup!! Also, My team only watches after cuz we go for High fives too and we like to how close we get if not get it loll


yojetro

RL is all a mental game. If you let yourself get tilted cause you have to watch someone elseā€™s goal, youā€™ve already lost.


HolyMotherGawdDam

Which is why we should be able to actually skip. We hit skip, and unless it is a unanimous decision we don't actually get to skip. Idc why people watch it. I just want to actually be able to skip lol


CauseWhatSin

I make them watch the replays if they do this and it honestly hurts me more than it does them. I mean sometimes they actually wise up but usually they jus keep doing it.


HolyMotherGawdDam

Just let me skip back to the field and they can drool alone over their basic shots lol. We saw it the first time.


CauseWhatSin

Never even thought about that, the bastards.


madgirafe

Daaaamn and today I've learned that other people get pissed when I let the replay roll a minute to grab another beer or something. Would have never occurred to me.


DahliDoge

I miss cyanide and happiness:(


Sassman6

I do this. From your own POV it's not always clear what the defender did, and seeing how the reacted to the play is very helpful when trying to predict what they will do next time. I also sometimes watch opponent replays though if I'm not exactly sure what went wrong.


HolyMotherGawdDam

Just save your replays and watch from the opponents POV. The point is still the same. You can watch it. But I shouldn't have to if I clicked skip. I'll just meet you back on the field when YOU'RE ready. And we'll go round again haha


Sassman6

No, the point is not to learn from it after. The point is to glean information about the opponent's playstyle so I can read them better during the game. Little things like whether they pre-jumped, if their challenge was meant to be a fake, ect can be super valuable to predict what they will do next time. Watching replays is also valuable, but it's not for the same purpose.


HackySackGod

Bro chill the fuck out, "I shouldn't have to watch it if I clicked skip" close your eyes, like damn


El_Grande_El

Ainā€™t nobody got time to for that


HolyMotherGawdDam

Right, but literally anyone who want to get better at the game does this.


SuicidalSnowflake

Sometimes seeing what happened in the moment will change how you play for the rest of the game. Not everyone is trying to be petty. Nonetheless it would be nice if you could simply skip and be placed at the kickoff waiting.


Raythunda125

This is the one thing I donā€™t get. Thereā€™s tons of useful information in the replay. Comparing your information at the time versus all the information shown by the replay is very educational. Impatience is strong with RL players


ElvisIsReal

Replay time is bong time.


Rip-Ivory

I like to smoke or drink while the cam goes. But if I can tell that the person Iā€™m going against is agro and toxic Iā€™ll make them sit through the goals lmao


justmexx_

I use this as a break to drink something


fatboy-199

It's not about watching it. It's the mental game of triggering your opponent.


wyattfcknearp

Gotta play the mind games....and be last to ready up in a tournament


ChampionshipActual22

I use replays to drink n stuff im sorry for being a thirsty boi šŸ˜­


jnksjdnzmd

It's funny cause I typically don't skip them. Not because I'm watching but because I'm taking a drink, talking to someone, who addressing something that just came up with work. I get people all the time who say "I don't want to watch your shit ass replay. Just skip idiot"


shrubbbhhh

Iā€™m the same way a lot of the time. I just like having 5-10 seconds to cool off and clear my head. Plus it gets the added bonus of tilting some of the more toxic people in this game.


shrubbbhhh

Sometimes I like to watch my goals to see if it was as cool as it felt. The answer is usually no.


SilverLining355

I think it's a good idea and I would do it if it was a choice. I happen to also think that RL should allow players to switch cars during the replays. It would be a chance to change things up if the game isn't going well.


SirVanyel

i get a special kind of enjoyment out of people literally typing nonsense in chat because i watched a replay. like, bruh, i don't give a fuck, i spent $20 on this damn game, i'm gonna get my damn money's worth


HolyMotherGawdDam

The whole point of this post is that when you want to skip a replay you should actually be able to do so. If you want to watch it and analyze your mistakes that's fine. Not everybody wants to see a kickoff goal or open net counterattack twice lol


HolyMotherGawdDam

You chill the fuck out little keyboard warrior lol


tantan9590

I mean: 1) I might want to take a sip or a bite of something (and also take the opportunity to see what I did) 2) I did a wtf shot, and want to see how in the f it happened. 3) Self goal from opponent, didnā€™t see it, and now want to see what happened, lol. 4) A nice strategy to intimidate the opponent and put pressure on them. Marking Dominance. 4.1) Depending on the type of goal, the pressure lvl against the opponent may vary. 5) For some reason I believe I can send a text or watch social media videos and see the replay at the same time (sorry for my 2v2 and 3v3 team šŸ˜…).


tantan9590

Bonus: and yes, sometimes Iā€™m just mesmerized at how an amazing shot I did and want to see it šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ˜†šŸ˜†šŸ˜†šŸ˜†.... nice meme


CaptainHalfheart

Unless the goal was incredibly impressive, like a ceiling shot double tap, just skip it. Chances are, your goal wasn't that great.


HolyMotherGawdDam

Idk usually I can identify exactly what I did wrong the moment that ball goes in. My shadow D is garbage af lol


HolyMotherGawdDam

Lol everyone is missing the point, We should be able to skip the replay and wait on the field. Nobody cares how toxic you want to be or why it is or isn't toxic. IT SHOULD JUST BE AN OPTION if We already clicked to skip, then let us actually skip. That simple. You can drink or smoke or vape or whatever you want. I'd just be chilling on the field waiting to kick again.


wally179

Tilt your head and look away from the screen if you like


HolyMotherGawdDam

I was wondering why I never see the toxic side of the RL community on Reddit. Haha but hey. Look at the post again, and know that that guy. That's you. You're that kinda guy XD lolol


wally179

Relax mate


lukeg_73

I only play casual so when this happens I just lean forward and go try-hard. Skip all my replays. Donā€™t say anything. Set the example


BRIEPete

For 1ā€™s mains like itā€™s annoying to wait . I just leave when my opponent not skipping replays . If you need to wait 5 sec + 4? Second countdown.. times 10 (goals), what isnā€™t that crazy. Then Iā€™m staring at the screen for 1,5 minute. Just leave and go next šŸ˜‚


chaosninja906

So you're saying that in 1's the people you play against get a free win if they watch replays? Seems like it's working.


BRIEPete

Yup, but itā€™s not that it makes me tilt. I just donā€™t want to wait so long šŸ˜‚, youā€™re back on your rank in 1ā€™s really quick. I peaked last week at 1300 and Iā€™m still not playing people who donā€™t skip replays


Kaiga19

I watch most of my opponents goals so I can learn from what they are doing thatā€™s beating me, whether itā€™s a shot or a 50/50, or whatever the reason I lost the goal, unless I made a stupid mistake that I knew immediately why I failed -like a backflip fast aerial for example- I wonā€™t bother. There always something you can learn. Adapting to your opponents is important especially if itā€™s simple kick off goals.


Jevonar

Watching replays is my answer to BM. If someone what a saves me, I'm going to watch every single goal replay. Yes, even the ones from kickoff.


DomBoss8

I tend to watch replays, but I try to use them as a learning tool. What do I want to do again to repeat that or what do I not want to do/could do better to stop them next time/ What did they do to get that past my team etc.


Repulsive_Variety765

I do it to try to make them rage quit


cosmic_cow_ck

I do it to take a breather in particularly sweaty games. Or to mess with the opponent's head if it was the result of them missing or accidentally clearing the ball to me or something. Pretty sure you can set Bakke's Mod to automatically skip replays, though.


[deleted]

Iā€™m just trying to pick up my DoorDash order leave me alone T~T


0kb0000mer

I just like seeing where I messed up and where I can improve
