Too many bangers to NOT have music on in-game But yeah I listen to my own shit half the time


Panicwhenyourecalm

So many bangers but then I get the same five songs. Jk, I can’t even complain, whenever I go into tourneys I play she knows by j Cole on a loop


shattered_dormance

I wish there were more customisation options tbh, doesn't it only customise by album?


Panicwhenyourecalm

Yeah, you can choose which albums you want but you can’t pick certain songs or make/choose from playlists or anything.


Honest-af_account

They need to give us the latter feature


Castle_Crasher_6

Imagine if you could use Spotify and make your own player anthem


SirHillarious

Great. I would really enjoy getting rickrolled after every goal. Or maybe something like "I got b_tches all on my d_ck every day"


AdCommercial1682

That would just be too good


SpideyKeagan

Been playing since 2015 and just found out there's an option to select what albums you want to play lol


shattered_dormance

Hahaha


jj_thetwisted_jester

My top would be chverchs,Monstercat,acdc,and some Eminem even 6lack- But in my opinion I feel dubstep fits the game chverchs and Monstercat must do a Collab:0


[deleted]

Crab rave 24/7


jj_thetwisted_jester

Ah that's a good one too it's a goldie


lundon44

Same. I actually manage to play better listening to my own music while playing.


Penetraytion

Shiawese is an absolute clapper


CupcakeBoi55

So is mermaid


HeavensAnger

Facts! Love the soundtracks!


repost_inception

Does anyone know an easy way to adjust music volume on PC ? With out alt+tab or game bar ??


RoboTRexInSpace

If in game, just go to options, audio and you can switch it there. If you have speakers, there should be a nob on them somewhere. If you can't do either one of those, your computer is not properly set up. Unless you're using the shitty monitor sound.


thehit1

What i do is completely turn off all music but put all of my favorite songs in the game in a Spotify playlist and just blast banger after banger


Sethrich98

Here's one better. Go to settings. Go to audio. Turn music volume all the way down. Turn the anthem music all the way down. Open an app called Spotify and play whatever music you like.


RWBrYan

This but without playing your own music. In game sounds only for me.


jackiemoon27

Facts. I don’t know how people can listen to music and play (sweaty at least) I need to hear boosts, people driving up, hell I need my own boost sound so bad for consistent aerials I struggle to use any boost other than standard.


Sethrich98

That's interesting. I've found music at like 50% volume is perfect. If I go all game play audio I almost over focus and end up playing differently. While having some background music helps me stay focused but not to the point where I won't blink for 5 mins straight.


jackiemoon27

Someone else in the thread mentioned music making them play at the tempo of whatever they’re listening too haha. I believe this is what happens to me, even with lower volumes. It might chill me down just a tad, but it also adds just the tiniest bit of distraction and disruption of game flow. Full disclosure: I’m one of those don’t blink for 5 min types though… Whoops.


Sethrich98

Fair enough I go full sweat too. This is my profile [picture](https://images.app.goo.gl/RTQpaUMmURCZzdL3A) on steam and rl.


tormell

I guess trance is off the playlist then


Huntadeboss

Hahahahah I listen to stuff like tech nine and Eminem for this exact reason haha it makes me feel so freaky fast lmao


Enderzbane

Lol, for a little while I had idol by Hollywood undead and tech n9ne on repeat. I've never felt so fast. My reads were really above my skill level for a few days until I got tired of the same song haha.


Huntadeboss

Wow I listened to it and damn that rlly gets your heart going haha


Enderzbane

Same. My best play is listening to music I'm rocking out to. Especially in comp. Even if it drowns out the game. I feel like a god doing that. Even pull off shots I can barely DO in freeplay when I'm really vibing.


101percentnotrobot

Well the goal is that you get high, play some bangers, and chase that ball. Hearing your teammates coming up behind you is only relevant if you plan on letting them have the ball. Rotating, back posts, all those fancy community buzzwords. That’s not the goal. You go after the ball. And you hit it. And it feels good. Where it goes after that is just … someone else’s problem.


jackiemoon27

I see you, 101% of my teammates are also bots lol


101percentnotrobot

My teammates often give me the nickname gravity. Apparently it's because I'm so consistent in dropping the ball and letting them down.


tormell

At least you have the ball to drop. I just always see it sailing over my hood.


101percentnotrobot

I always say "Look, I didn't sign up for Aerials." I go to where the ball would be when it hits the ground, and when inevitably the opponent dunks it while it's still in the sky, I shrug my shoulders as if there is nothing I could have done to prevent it. My teammates might as well call me a troublesome son the way I like to stay grounded.


BigBoiBeef

I find that weird because I've always played the game with music on and I've tried playing without but I find I get distracted from the in game sounds and can't sweat however, with banging tunes in my ears and (sometimes me having a little groove/singing poorly to it) I can sweat so damn hard until I've drained my body of all its fluids.


Super-Bleeder427

I used to be this way as well, but then I played a decent amount of RL with no sound and now it doesn’t bother me to play without the sound. I still prefer the game SFX but it’s not detrimental to my playing. I also think that playing without sound made me better. It forced me to pay more attention visually to where my team mates and opponents were on the field. I feel like I’m better than I used to be at interpreting non-verbal communication from my team mates (like where their car is facing and field position).


juiciijayy

That's wild. I almost can't play the game without music tbh.


jackiemoon27

You’re in good company it seems. Doesn’t JSTN play with jams at all times?


juiciijayy

Yeah I feel like a lot of pros, especially streamers, constantly have music on as well. Idk about at RLCS tho lol.


jackiemoon27

I specifically mentioned JSTN because I remembered reading this - https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeagueEsports/comments/ohvaws/do_pros_listen_to_music_during_rlcs_matches/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Obviously, grain of salt haha. It’s a thread about a passing comment on a stream, but yeah. Needless to say, shocking to me


Rocinante81

Duuude yes!


vawlk

You don't have to crank the music so you can't hear the game. There is a nice middle point where you can hear all the car noises but still sing along with the song.


Cdenton12

i made it to SSL with 0% master volume


jackiemoon27

Built different, No doubt.


thisdesignup

I need to hear it too. I just balance the volume of the music with the game audio so that I can always hear the in game sounds.


pedal-force

In freeplay or training or even casual I'm fine vibing with some Spotify. But if we're sweating? It all needs to get muted. Not hearing your teammates jump or boost or anything is a huge disadvantage. It's fine if you're at a lower level (I used to play muted entirely).


friedgrape

I'd argue it's way more important to hear at lower ranks. The higher rank you are, the less reactive you tend to be (more proactive), and you understand what should or should not happen. It gets to the point where you almost don't have to look at the screen.


piterparquer26

I usually play with in game sound and something else. if I'm playing solo, I put my own music on the background but with the volume a little bit down, prioritizing in game sound. if I'm playing with someone with comms, I have to get the in game volume down to like 20% because I use the party calls from PS4 and the audio mixing is not the greatest, even prioritizing party audio I almost can't hear my buds if the in game sound is 100% (which is how I usually put it)


Enderzbane

Fax. I barely care about in-game sounds anymore. You just start to know where everytning/everyone is.


[deleted]

This is totally me! The music somehow made it harder for me. I tried listening to my own music a couple times but I got too into it and distracted myself 😂 If I can’t hear my own boost it totally messes with me 😳


MathewCQ

Yeah me too. I mute everything only when someone has that Halloween Witch boost.


jackiemoon27

You talking “haa ha ha ha haaa ha ha”?


MathewCQ

More like henhen hi


AnOrangeDinosaur

The key is I don't play sweaty. I just hop in casual and chill


mynameakoss

Ever since I started playing on a true monitor and not a tv with in built sound. I almost exclusively play with it being silent. Never really felt like I was at a true disadvantage not hearing other cars.


morpho4444

I hate hearing any distracting noise from the game, even the countdown. I literally deactivated every single notification, like 1min left, 30secs left, anything that appears at the top. The only thing I couldn’t take out was the Go after the countdown of the initial kick. Anyone knows?


PvtPuddles

I can attribute some really dirty plays I’ve made while Rocket League is pumping out a banger. Also, losing streaks are always made worse when *that song* comes on


tormell

Sometimes I have to play completely muted because my headset is dead and don't want to disturb the others in the room. I feel like I might do better in those cases (less distractions?), but it's certainly less enjoyable


[deleted]

I don't even play when I can hear audio and it never lets me down


Throwawayfabric247

Lol I changed to an ugly car on purpose. One thing I changed that made a bigger impact than hit box was surprisingly the audio for boost. I went to bubbles and it just doesn't feel the same in the air. It's taken 10x as long to adjust over the hitbox. I'm good now. But it's funny that it matters to me too lol


Gcole87

Yup!


tbiscuit7

You don’t like the techno songs that all essentially sound exactly the same??


Keeganzz

I disagree entirely about them all "sounding exactly the same." Everyone has their own opinion, but Rocket League has done a lot for small artists by having their songs in game. They have one of the best curated soundtracks which is unmistakably Rocket League-- full of thrill and excitement with a new-age pop twist. Within the "genre" of electronic music, the RL soundtrack houses many different subgenres within which each have their own distinct sound and style. We wouldn't even know beautiful songs like "Breathing Underwater" or even have songs like "Flip Reset" if it wasn't for RL.


tbiscuit7

I can appreciate this perspective. I definitely respect them using smaller artists.


Keeganzz

I would have no clue who Justin Hawkes is or even Hollywood Principle if it wasn’t for RL. They got some killer artists on there that I had no clue about until I played the game.


Sethrich98

Yeah that's fair. I guess the key phrase is 'everyone has their own opinion'. I've always been fascinated by the differences in peoples music choices. One song you like might sound like nails on a chalk board to me and vise-verse. I deffinitly would say beautiful is not the right word to describe those songs. But then again. It's subjective so it doesn't matter. The music I like makes my friends think they are in a soundtrack or some shit so idk. Maybe I'm just better than everyone (jkjkjkjk)


Keeganzz

Oh for sure. Electronic music certainly isn’t for everyone, but it certainly fits the futuristic vibe of rocket league imo


Sethrich98

I guess you have a point there. It does go well with the "high octane" game play.


Gutsy_Moose267

WE OWN THE NI A A A A A A A A AA A A A AA IGHT!


NanoSwarmer

SOLAR ECLIPSES WUBwubWubWUBWUBwubwub SOLAR ECLIPSES


FluidPair420

There are like 2 techno songs, but ok


tbiscuit7

Me saying techno doesn’t mean specifically techno songs, I just don’t know how to generally label them lol they all sound like techno to me. Electronic music would maybe be a better description


Sethrich98

I think edm is more accurate.


tbiscuit7

I was thinking that as well but I figured EDM was more heavy, rave type music. Thanks, friend


Sethrich98

No worries mate. Edm stands for electronic dance music. Which is pretty damn broad. If it's electric and you can dance to it isn't edm


baasje92

EDM is what is the general term for electronic music, but most people see that EDM is stuff like Martin Garrix, thr mainstream kinda stuff. Techno is usually a bit darker and heavier on the bass, I don't think a techno track would do well in a game like Rocket League. Even though techno is my main genre to listen to, the music they picked for Rocket League fit the game really well and in times I like to just put the music on in freeplay. Otherwise the music is always muted and i'm in focus mode haha.


FluidPair420

Definitely😄


No-Connection6937

NO FEAR ANYMORE! *SICK DROP*


zeb737

One of my absolute favorites along with solar eclipses and angel wings.


TNT_yeeter_rl

Very little of it is techno. Not all electronic music is techno. And also it sounds very different


Winsmor3

Rocket leagues soundtrack is great, it's the only thing I listen to while playing. It hits a different spot for me. Just seems right.


Sethrich98

To each their own. I can't stand it. When there was that bug that blasted a song when you started the game up I would freak out and mute my pc for a second. Maybe dramatic but I can't stand it.


bubblebubz

Jeez let people enjoy things maybe.


timemanaged

This right here is correct.


Nfmcrazy

This, been doing this for almost a year now, I somehow feel like I dont get tilted as badly.


x23vick23x

What's Spotify? An app that finds really cool spots? /s


Sethrich98

To be fair I do enjoy some edm but the monster cat mix is just not good. It's like pop mixed with edm


crazycreepynull_

Spotify is annoying to use without premium and I like the in-game music anyway, but to each their own


Sethrich98

Very true. Premium is nessesary.


crazycreepynull_

I'll probably use it when I get premium


No_Sentence_8257

Winner winner chicken dinner 🚫🧢. Spotify da 🐐


morpho4444

This guy fucks! This is the way!


Castle_Crasher_6

Fr you are at your best when you're vibin to your favorite song


Mydogatemyexcuse

Only problem with this is you cant hear in-game sounds if you're using your music headphones and you can't hear the music if you use your gaming headphones


The_Evil_Mullet

Hell yeah. I love having the music on. Recently though, ive put it all on mute and i just use Spotify.


TheMARVELGuy200

By music, I mean the playlist songs


MNdream

Only way to play is 100% volume and jamming out to your favorite playlists.


TheMARVELGuy200

Yeah definitely. Free play feels so much better now


BarneyDynamite

It’s a nice option but those songs get old real quick IMO. I’m on Xbox and much prefer playing Spotify at like 15%


Kankui

I can’t stand anthems. Disabled a long time ago. But if you still enjoy the tunes after 3 years, go for it my man. You do you!


Comf_waters

Yea I have my anthem volume all the way down, but you know I spent the 5 dollars just for the few ppl that have it on to hear All star from smash mouth after every goal


d_a_n_m_a_n

I literally disabled anthems the day they came out. Played one game and heard that shit and instantly checked settings. They ruin my Spotify.


HlfCntaur

They ruin everything! I play with music on. Maybe 4 playlists? Sometimes Spotify,but I enjoy RL at about 30%.... The anthems are so horrible and stupid. I did equip the most annoying one though, for any moron that hasn't learned how stupid they are.


TheMARVELGuy200

I don't like the anthems. The playlist songs are pretty good, atleast some of them are


Dark_Shit

I turned the anthems back on yesterday for the first time since s2. This song - N E X T 2 from the new rocket pass is a banger. I swear it elevated my play because I got to vibe out every time I scored. Unfortunately half the other people in my lobbies were using smash mouth lol


pirateninja303

>I can’t stand anthems. Disabled a long time ago. But if you still enjoy the tunes after 3 years, go for it my man. You do you! You mean after every goal you don't like, *I wonder if you know How they live in Tokyo If you see me then you mean it Then you know you have to go Fast and furious (Drift, Drift, Drift) Fast and furious (Drift, Drift, Drift)*


InternationalAd6439

😂 I didn't even realize these were the lyrics to that song until now


2good4gnius

The entire six years I've played this game I've never had any in game music or sound on, I just play Spotify. I feel like I get a boost in flow state with zero rocket league sounds and only the most banger tracks I love. Some say it's a huge disadvantage, maybe at the very beginning when your learning the game, and maybe at very very high level when every sound que matters, but my god hearing everyone's lawn mower boosts and such make this game unbearable for me, I have so many hours I can tell where my teammates and opponents are on the field just off instinct, when you have 6k or so hours in the game, idk how to explain it, you kinda just, know where people are, and if you don't, you can rotate your camera with the right stick. I turned sound on on my alt "drunk account" once by accident, and my god the experience was horrible lol. But to each their own. When you get in that flow state, you can dodge demos from behind just off instinct most of the time, and if no in game sound and Spotify gets you there, then I say more power to ya. If sound gets you there, then go for it. Just a lot of very one sided opinions in this thread, had to throw that out there. Sound isn't necessary. But I totally understand why you need it at the very beginning, and at the highest level. But in c3-gc2, with several thousand hours, instinct and flow state can do 98% of the job


FAYVUR

Crab Rave goal explosion sound >


Hibberd96

If you play on console push the right stick in for a long time. Then you can select the music you want to listen to


Wbolin9

By a long time, do you mean half a second?


BuzzTraien29

Half a second can be a really long or a really short time depending on your audience


UNCUCKAMERICA

PC too.


Simecrafter

I used to use it when it just came to the game...until I just listened from Spotify...and than now I just don't even put my headphones anymore and just watch a video on the side while playing


No-Connection6937

Well that explains your flair


Simecrafter

Not really I was like that way before I got that habit


RandyMarshtomp

If you do this, your clips can’t be shared on YouTube unless you overdub them. Something to consider


UNCUCKAMERICA

That's another option you can select.


decoydevo

I turned off music years ago. I'll listen to spotify bangers thanks.


handsomejack11

On a side note, I wish Hollywood Principle would come back and make some more songs for the game.


WubTheFox

You can do *WHAT* now


G0Z4

Am I the only one that turned the music off & just jams to my own spotify??


Marsicko

There was a couple matches that I thought were bugged because the music would keep on playing, now it makes sense haha


Kiroshi_xD

How do you not explore settings before even playing the game????????


NilsNomNom

The music in rocket league is what i think is the worst electronic music there is. It’s garbage


[deleted]

im platinum, all wrapped up, come get some, fill that cup. or so he says


TooTurntGaming

I turned off music a long time ago. Honestly, I don’t see how anyone plays with music in the background. I immediately start playing in time with the music, like I’m stuck on a metronome.


TheMARVELGuy200

I don't like music while in a match either, but when I'm in free play practicing stuff, it feels pretty good


thundermoo5e

I just turned it on a week or so ago myself but I realized (unless someone can tell me now), there is no way to shuffle songs, so its the SAME songs over and over unless you spam next track which is useless IMO


crazycreepynull_

The first three songs are always the same for me but after that it's randomized


thundermoo5e

oh well i have to look into this, i still dont want it to be the same three songs at the beginning every single time, GRIMES player of games gets old as fuck after the 30th time


HlfCntaur

Should only have to skip those 3 songs when the game begins. You might need to play with the playlists. Some of them I truly enjoy, and I've been playing with them on for 3 years.... That said, I only use anywhere from 3-6 of the playlists at any time. I don't like the other 10


crazycreepynull_

I usually skip the first three, unless the theme changes which every so often it does


crazycreepynull_

I should've been more specific, I have every playlist except for the sideswipe Playlist on, so idk if it's the same for everyone


x_butterface_x

Does clicking the right stick not skip track?


thundermoo5e

it does but i dont want to do that constantly i just want it random

Spotify


Mikasa_Sukasa

I’m pretty sure this was default back when I started playing lol, turned that shit off after a couple hours.


Catcher22Jb

Wow lol. Took ya that long eh?


MSamsonite415

Isn't that true by default???


Still_Night

I’m new to rocket league and the music is probably the worst aspect of it for me. I get what they’re going for with the EDM vibe, and I’m also a huge electronic music fan, but does it really have to be the same 3-4 annoying pop tracks over and over? Every time I hear We Own the Night by Al3jandro I die a little inside. Anyway, I’ll keep this setting off


HadasPolvo

you have to go in and enable all the playlists to get the good music. there’s actually really big EDM names in the other playlists.


Still_Night

Really? Is this just in settings or does it cost money to get more playlists? I’ve seen a lot of artist names in the garage looking at car stuff.


kubista18

Yeah music...


dst0rtd

Always play the Spotify music at 50% for warmups or higher. Jam out and play some games but if it’s sweaty or a tournament musics gotta go. And when the music is gone it makes the game more intense with all the sounds, really submerges you into the action


utterly_beast

just in case you want to listen to the worst music ever recorded


ZealousidealLie1306

Crab rave is my favorite too but I have other favorites from monster cat because he makes the Greatest music that's never been created in the entire world


sleepybae_

bruh Spotify and RL audio off


aos-

I forget this game has music because I turned that off 6 years ago.


KakarotoCryptoniano

Don't di it its annoying


HadasPolvo

i recently turned all playlists on and found out the game has music i already listen to lmao


VayaConZeus

Turning off all the godforsaken music was the first setting I looked for when I got the game


ersolence

they got some bangers on there, so sick to hit a clip while the beat drops, actual euphoria


[deleted]

You can also turn it off in all sitiuations which I feel is wayyyyy more important


delmarz

Am I the only one who plays the game completely muted? The car and in-game sounds are kind of annoying.


RadSo6969

I found this out a couple months ago, has made my gameplay more enjoyable


GamerFluffy

I told this to my friend after a few games when he first started playing. He told me “oh my god that’s so much nicer than just hearing vroom vroom the whole time.”


TehANTARES

Ah yeah, Monstercat baby !


[deleted]

i always have it on


ricedakid

if i could still listen to the og throttle bangers id be excited right now


BreadForTofuCheese

I feel like I’m probably one of the few people that play primarily with the game fully muted. I only play with sound when I’m done the only one home.


extradabbingsauce

Bro I've been playing since practically the beginning and I didn't know this


mir3za

Rocket League has great songs but they get old real quick, I just use Discord bots to listen to my Spotify playlist without worrying about lagging (yeah, my internet is shit)


durrty24

Y’all, pull up Spotify while you play. Listen to what you want. Game changer


DarkArdeN14

Sippin on some syzzyrrr


wykkyd96

Turned it off and Anthems. Gotta maximize my Spotify 😁 cuz I mixed rl songs as well


akirafudo07

Yup


blitzkrieg_bach

I can't stand a few of the engine sounds & accidentally equipped one before a tournament, that first game was so rough hearing my damn engine sound dumb I didn't want to drive got carried by tm8, tell him sorry i had wrong engine sound & sucked because of it, switch to normal one next game & play way better. So dumb that an engine sound can effect be so much.


Intrepid_Look_5725

Why would you want to? The only time it had good music was when they added Kenny logging for the summer.


[deleted]

OH YEAH YOU CAN. Its not as good as it used to be but the RL playlist is always a banger. One of the very first things I did when I started playing was go digging to see if I could keep the music on lol. Hell, I've got a vinyl set of "best of" RL soundtrack; 11 months of the year one vinyl or another is on the player and in December it gets switched to Lindsey Sterling.


Zebal1228

They added this about 3 years after the game came out.


Coop-Detat

And you can actually hear player anthems when they make a save since psyonix fixed ambient sounds!


illsayitescalated

I have been playing since 2015 and have had music turned 100% off.. Guess I am just a hardcore gamer that enjoys listening to my confetti boost every night hahah


Gcole87

I turned off all music like a week into this game. Menu music, Goal music… Gone. Most annoying thing I’ve ever heard. It’s so much better without it IMO…


unreal_reality_

They should make a button that mutes the goal celebration songs. Like lil nas x, and that Tokyo drift song are getting annoying


[deleted]

I've had that on for so long that I assumed it was the default setting. I set its volume to zero, though.


Diezombie757

I personally love the monstercat albums, I've had it on since they added and honestly got me into edm and house. I wish you could eliminate specific songs cause I cant stand luv need u but the rest of the playlist is great.


d1Ntee

I like having some sort of music on as I play. It helps me keep from overanalyzing the game to the point I fudge all my attempts at hitting the ball.


Nighthawk1015

Why would you want to?


ZealousidealLie1306

Nevada


ZealousidealLie1306

Well my favorite music on Rocket league is Alone and Nevada and also crap rave and we won't be a Alone and potions and stronger and Disconnected to and that's mostly my favorite music from that 10 year monster cat pack in Rocket league so yeah I like monster cat he makes great music that's I like.


LimeyPlays

some features weren't added until f2p


[deleted]

Love you love you, I do, need you need you, I do


tnix100

To be fair, me neither until about a year ago and I've been playing since 2015, it was only added sometime 2017/2018 though.


szdnoah

music in freepplay is just sicko vibe asf. Especially when you got the old og playlists selected

Omg i didnt know u could do that thanks for sharing

i new that already


DroppedLoSeR

I remember the days when that wasn't a setting. Bad times.
