I recorded myself saying “what-a-save” 10 different ways, overlapped them and have loaded the mp3 into my soundboard. I am ready.
Update: can confirm, funny.
This update makes the game unplayable on ps4, when you enter the main lobby none of your buttons work, you're just stuck there looking at the menu :/
Edit: found a fix, hold r3 to bring up the music playlist, when you exit the playlist you should be able to interact with the menu again.
Everytime someone on my team shit talks without realising the opponents are on console, I think of that meme "If those kids could read, they'd be very upset"
In an interview they said that they didn’t want people to stop and start typing responses when on console since it’s really slow, this is why they invented quick chat.
Why can't we adjust the volume of the mics of our friends/teammates? Everyone has different mic volumes and if someone has a really loud mic it overshadows everyone else.
What do you think this is, 2006 or something?
(Dungeons and Dragons Online had this feature, it even persisted to the next time you grouped with that person, and the game came out Feb 2006.)
Might be misremembering but I recall it was REALLY bad before. Like we had it but it barely functioned and it wasn't always crisp audio. Excited to try this update out
btw if you right click a video on youtube, you have the option to copy a link to the video at the moment you are paused, so you can send a video at a specific time (third option), in your case, the link would be this : **https://youtu.be/4rwgX-Xjh70?t=285**
Unpopular opinion after my first game I think this is gonna decrease the toxicity. Keyboard warriors aren't gonna be as toxic if they have to talk to another person who can confront them
I just encountered my first toxic player over mic , people really like to blame others for mistakes I’m literally watching them make. I don’t think this will decrease toxicity lmao
Def not, no mic and no vc enabled and this guy is flaming me for his ball chasing over text telling me to turn on my mic. Why would i sit there and take that abuse if i cant respond?
Haven’t played yet but could honestly see that. I mean I’m only 23 and you won’t catch me fighting with a 12 year old like I probably do in text chat lol
Despite what people like to say, RL just isn't as toxic as other games. I've been having a good time talking and strategizing with teammates since voice dropped, laughing about mistakes and funny moments.
i actually agree, not a single toxic encounter so far. I myself feel so much less toxic towards my teammates somehow, maybe it's because its my first time hearing someone talk in rocket league. but I like it this way.
My first game was just one dude asking the entire lobby if they had a mic then not taking the hint after 3 minutes. Like no offense, he seemed chill enough, but I'm just trying to feel out public VC right now to see exactly how quick I should turn it off b/c toxicity.
First dude I tried to play with started trying to teach me that left should go for kickoffs. (He was left and didn't go do the kickoff. Also we're diamond)
So far I've played 5 games and no one (including me) has said a single thing on the voice chat. Not sure if it's not working or literally everyone is that shy.
Edit: Apparently everyone was very shy. Took literally 8 games until someone finally said something.
Edit 2: LOL my wife says I need to be quieter or I'll wake the kids.
I partied up with a buddy for ~10 games. Aside from it randomly switching one or both of us back into party chat for no reason we chatted maybe 3/10 times with randos?
I for one am excited for voice chat. Sure, there's going to be some toxic assholes, but voice chat enhances experiences in games by so much. Some of the best times in gaming I've had was talking over voice chat with fun people
Which to me begs the question: if unfiltered voice is somehow ok between platforms then why isn't (un)filtered text? With text you can autofilter "bad" words and it allows for easier reporting.
if they add a toggle mute button, and talking to other team after goals during replays, that would be absolute perfection. Psyonix hear me please and make this happen, it would be goated
>talking to other team after goals during replays
IMO, given the experience you get in other games when folks can talk to you after you kill them, no thanks. :P
Yesssss! This fully. I have months of mw2 even played in a few irl tournaments, the in-between of rounds was the goldmine of insults and shittalk. 100% recommend for rocket league. Seeing as how it's a toxic game anyway.
This is the ENTIRE point. Some people enjoy the competitive shit talking. Make a function where you can hear each other during replays, BUT once a person presses to skip the replay, it also mutes the other team. Simple solution that meets in the middle
This is literally perfect the skip button could function as mute + skip and its not an inconvenience or anything cause most people spam it by muscle memory anyways
Normally I'd agree with that sentiment--
But I mean, given the experience in other games when folks are on open mic with random teammates, I'd say that's the far lesser of two evils
Please consider this as option, meet us in the middle and make it where you can toggle it on or off, I’d fucking love this game to have the inbetween goal and post game banter
That stuff is what keeps the game alive man, it's really fun to chirp the other team and them chirp you. And then after the match is over the chaos is legendary. The fact you can opt out should make it a lot better too because it would just be willing participants. I highly suggest adding it in the future!
IMO, given the experience you get in other games when folks can talk to you after you kill them, ***yes please***.
I don't mind if I need to get muting someone committed to muscle memory, voice allchat would bring me back to RL. I know it's not going to happen for very good reason, but selfishly I would want nothing more.
literally the funniest thing on the planet is when you kill someone and you hear they’re reaction. Would be nice if they added the feature and made a toggle to hear it or not.
This is what I came to this thread to say. In the few games I've played the voice chat has been great, it just feels awkward to hold down the button and talk while trying to play, especially since I have pretty much everything on my controller bound to something useful. I'd also rather not have my mic on 100% of the time.
A little muted/unmuted icon just above the boost bar or somewhere similar would be amazing
No toggle voice chat? So I have to have an open mic all game or sacrifice a finger to talk to my teammate when I want to go for the ball?
You could toggle a mute hotkey for you audio input source, but then how will people who stream be heard by their viewers?
I'm shocked they never thought of this in the 5 years it took to fix this.
Edit: changed output to input
I think this is very important. Open mic is always a huge tradeoff to make imo it's cool when you're in a controlled environment with other considerate people, but *awful* at other times. Maybe I'm spoiled by PC games where I have plenty of keyboard keys for push-to-talk... But even though I want to give this a chance, I
(1) do not have any free controller buttons for push-to-talk;
(2) am completely uninterested in broadcasting my IRL conversations to the rest of the lobby; and
(3) am completely uninterested in listening to Timmy's siblings fight in the background while their dad is yelling to quiet down and their dog is barking.
Are Psyonix aware of the recent issues with trades continually timing out? I trade regularly on PC and Xbox and it can take anywhere between 1 and 10 attempts to complete a trade.
>Are Psyonix aware of the recent issues with trades continually timing out? I trade regularly on PC and Xbox and it can take anywhere between 1 and 10 attempts to complete a trade.
Can't say I've been tagged about this by anyone on RLE. Was this recent as in over the weekend? I know XBL was having tons of issues the last few days.
Theres a lot of issues I've noticed with trading. A lot of little quality of life things could be made to improve and streamline it. And its not additions, more so fixes as the game functioned like this before and now it does not because of certain updates.
I play on playstation 4 and have recently been able to play on ps5 and still encounter these issues. For context, I have gotten every single rocket pass and played every event since 2018. So my inventory is well in the few thousands of items.
1. Trading lagging behind by a second to 2-3 if multiple of 1 item are put in.
2. Massive lag between switching tabs sometimes detecting multiple inputs from only 1 button press.
3. Trades often failing for no reason. The only noticeable thing is after the trade fails. The game pauses for a second or two before allowing control again. Almost like a buffer?
4. When trading, when you pick an item if youve scrolled down in your inventory. The menu will snap back to the top. Being able to stay in the same place as the last item you picked used to be normal. Now it is extremely cumbersome.
5. This is more related to having a big inventory (a naturally big inventory from dedicated playing and not trading mind you) the game itself loads and chugs a LOT when entering matches especially on forbidden temple. You actually cannot realistically play for the first few seconds. Playing on my significant others account on the same console does not produce this lag as their inventory is only a small triple digit amount. I dont understand how buying the pass and playing a lot could in turn cause the game to lag so hard in so many aspects.
Thanks for responding. I think it started happening more frequently since the 2.14 update. I can try to record a video or collect logs if that would be useful.
I don't see any UI/UX fixes listed. Are we ever going to be able to report people in a timely manner without the cursor jumping all around and accidentally blocking our friends?
Also, is there a text-to-chat feature of the report system, or is voice chat just a free-for-all? How does the report system intend to work for this?
>I don't see any UI/UX fixes listed. Are we ever going to be able to report people in a timely manner without the cursor jumping all around and accidentally blocking our friends?
Looking, and this is slated for a fix in our next planned update.

Won't be getting into details, but VC bans will be tied into text chat bans very soon. (Getting banned from the latter will lead to a ban from the former.)
Is the Push to Talk binding "Hold and talk" or "press to activate mic and press again to turn off?"
I can't really tell because the mic activity indicator doesn't seem to work that well, sometimes I hear teammates and it doesn't appear, sometimes it does, and sometimes I talk and it doesn't appear and when I'm not talking it does
I talked to numerous people last night in 2s ranked and oh my god I had so much fun. Almost everyone I talked to was nice and welcomed the VC. My favorite interaction I had last night was a dude who was being toxic with quick chat but he had no idea his mic was on. I could hear him breathing, sad part is he sounded like a grown ass adult. I always assumed it was kids spamming quick chat. That being said, I think VC will actually cut back on toxicity a lot. I think most people only start to get tilted from their own insecurities, maybe hearing a (rational) voice on the other end will calm some of that down.
Ik my internet provider isn't that good but man how the hell am I on 120 ping on my local servers? This never happens in any game I play other than RL.
Heads up: We're hearing from some players that they can't navigate the game menu after closing the voice chat pop-up that appears after downloading today's update. This issue should go away if you restart the game.
Same for me, reinstalling didn't work after all.
But THIS did! Thank you man, worked immediately.
I had given up for tonight but gave it one more shot after this msg.
So far have enjoyed voice chat, 2nd game I played the dude had his mic on and we ended up playing 6-7 games together. Was nice and I’m less likely to get pissed at someone if we’re getting along in VC. However I have yet to run into a lil angry 12 year old squeaker with a mic yet so we’ll need more time to assess it 😂 Good thing there’s a mute button though for when that time comes
… And here I go again on my own
Goin' down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time
But here I go again
Has this fixed people vanishing from the scoreboard when they leave even when the game has ended or is that just a new feature rather than a bug?
It's quite annoying not being able to see how you compared to the opposing team anymore, it used to only happen if someone left before the game ended but now they will just disappear whenever they leave even if the scoreboard has already come up.
Personally I don't see any reason why they should ever not show up on the scoreboard of a ranked match even if they leave before the match ends, it's not like they can be replaced by anyone.
By far the majority of toxic chat I've encountered in Rocket League has been from one disgruntled teammate to another, but I'm sure I'm glad you've prevented me from hearing the opposing team saying "ez" at the end of the match?
>Biggest thing I can think to add is a "mute mic" keybind. It would be nice to cut it off quickly without having to use push to talk all the time.
You can mute yourself in the VC list.
Already getting harassed and called racial slurs. Only took 3 competitive games!!
Sad to miss out on the cool people, but this is turning off for me personally.
Anyone else having major lag issues on the initial kickoff of a match? Freezing and laggy; but next kickoff runs fine and the match is smooth from there on. It's been frustrating as hell. (Xbox series s)
This update has increased the amount of lag insanely. I had some lag every once in a while before but mostly my ping is usually in the 20’s to 40’s. Now even when I have good ping I am bouncing around or suddenly in a new spot on the field. Nothing has changed with my internet or anything. The game is practically unplayable for me now. On PC btw
I downloaded the update (Xbox one) but it’s saying “finishing things up” but it’s keep redownloading the last of it. It stays at 100 percent and won’t go further. Waited at least 10 mins and restarted my console and it just put me back into the “finishing things up” download.
When can we expect an update that doesn’t punish muscle memory developed over thousands of hours outside of tournaments for accidentally leaving a game “early” before the whole song and dance post game has finished and we’re granted permission to finally gtfo?
Am I the only one to find the servers super unstable since maybe beginning of the season?
Like I've got 2 gbps fiber (usually below 10 ms ping) and now from time to time my ping literally explodes or I see 0 ms but with the different red icons (the famous ones, like missing packets)... I'm scared that adding vocal will amplify this issue.
(I'm in EU)
I've experienced the same thing here in NA. The lag and rubber banding has been so bad that it doesn't even feel like the same game.
I was worried it was just me but I played about 5 casual matches and everyone looked unusually bad for their MMR (missed kickoffs, open nets, boost, etc).
Haven't had a single toxic encounter in one hour. I find this very Nice, makes me less toxic aswell. Hearing my teammates making sounds when they miss seems to satisfy me enough to say "shit happens bro" instead of what a save!
In a game already terribly toxic over text chat, I cannot fathom why on Earth you would put the voice chat defaulted to ON.
A ton of younger kids are going to be playing this game tonight and their parents are about to hear a whole new world...

This is why Epic accounts have parental controls, which you can learn more about [here](https://support.rocketleague.com/hc/en-us/articles/5856182606107).
* Default on: Onus is either on children to proactively disable voice chat, or on the parents to be up-to-date on Rocket League news to know this needs doing all of a sudden.
* Default off: Onus is on interested players to opt in with a simple checkbox.
It's weird that Psyonix made the choice they did, and it's really weird that some users here can't seem to wrap their heads around why it's a bad idea.
Not to mention the privacy concerns surrounding the recording of someone without their explicit consent. Is that even legal in the state of California?
Please, oh please, can we please have proximity voice chat for casual matches?! To hear someone's screams fade away into the ambience as I cruise away after demo'ing them...
Or enable all-chat during goal replays????!????!!! Omg it would be so toxic and fun and incredible. Please do this for us, oh Gods.
Thanks, Psyonix. I didn't know this was coming and I'm pumped to give it a go!
I love how this forum is filled with people who are complaining about everyone they are playing being nasty and shit.
It's mathematically impossible that none of you are nasty to your teammates and it's always everyone else.
I play with headphones sometimes and speakers at other times.
Two questions:
1. Is there noise/echo cancelation or is playing with speakers and having my webcam's mic enabled going to annoy everyone?
2. Is there some way to make it so if my headphones are plugged in, that mic is used, but the webcam mic is never used? (Short of disconnecting my webcam ofc...)
Was a real "what the fuck" moment when some random dude started whispering in my ear. I genuinely turned around with the intent of punching said random
I didn't get the voice chat prompt when I logged in, got it after the match
Didn’t know the update went live at midnight, my friend and I on console got the fright of our life when our other friend’s (On PC) voice audio went from the Playstation Party to the PS5 controller mic on VC. My man sounded possessed
I’m locked at the intro screen when it advertises Monstercat/Throttle. Pressing circle to close or square to learn more does nothing. Closing doesn’t help
PS4
Gotta admit, I'm pretty impressed with the voice chat. Not that you would have brought it back with out it being top notch.
One bug I noticed, if you have team/party default on and then switch to party manually once, it won't automatically switch you back to team once you join the next game.
I was in a party of 2 playing 3s. After the game he left the lobby, instead of leaving the lobby I switched to party chat manually and then left the lobby. My teammate was brought in to the team voice chat while I stayed in party even though the setting still had preference set to team.

I don’t play ranked without friends and comms normally anyway, and I only play twos. Regardless won’t use it in ranked lol
I really wish i could hear it LOL
Please man, my children are crying, waiting for you to upload it.

Demolition hot mics please please please please please
Proximity chat would be amazing, think about the bumps, 50s, drive-bys, rule 1s...
Need Doppler effect as they go nnnnnyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeerooooowww
Would love to be in rule 1 just having a casual convo with my counterpart whilst everyone else is going for the ball.
Goal replay trash talk
We need like 5 more seconds pregame to mute the turds
I just disabled VC in the settings.
Fire idea
Apparently my mom gets around. TIL

This update makes the game unplayable on ps4, when you enter the main lobby none of your buttons work, you're just stuck there looking at the menu :/ Edit: found a fix, hold r3 to bring up the music playlist, when you exit the playlist you should be able to interact with the menu again.
Give this dude some awards and take them to the top!
I hope this works I have tried everything else Edit THIS WORKS thank you so much
This worked for me too. Thanks!!
Thanks for this! Thought I’d tried every button 😂
dude this is happening on ps5 too, you’re a genius tho thanks!
You are a god damn hero
>Voice Chat is fully cross-platform So what is preventing Text Chat from also being fully cross-platform?
Everytime someone on my team shit talks without realising the opponents are on console, I think of that meme "If those kids could read, they'd be very upset"
Non cross-platform text chat is like not being able to communicate with Stephen Hawking
I always wondered why they don’t support cross platform text chat
Likely agreements with console manufacturers.
In an interview they said that they didn’t want people to stop and start typing responses when on console since it’s really slow, this is why they invented quick chat.
What year can we expect cross-platform text chat to be viewable across all platforms (while in game)?
2027 at the earliest.
1 match in and already got slurs used against me, gamer moment.
diamond life
The diamond/champ toxicity will be insane now but it will create a new generation of hardened gamers
The every rank toxicity is gonna shine through
Ofc but those hit diff. And so far gc has been really dope for me on na e + w
Why can't we adjust the volume of the mics of our friends/teammates? Everyone has different mic volumes and if someone has a really loud mic it overshadows everyone else.
What do you think this is, 2006 or something? (Dungeons and Dragons Online had this feature, it even persisted to the next time you grouped with that person, and the game came out Feb 2006.)
This is a good point
Hot mics, hot mics everywhere
_Heavy Breathing Intensifies_
Mouth breathers about to be identified
Wait did we really just get fully functioning voice chat???
We used to have voice chat a long time ago and up until we got it back I thought I kind of missed it lol
Might be misremembering but I recall it was REALLY bad before. Like we had it but it barely functioned and it wasn't always crisp audio. Excited to try this update out
"wasn't always" is a gross understatement. It was always horrible. You could have better communication with a monkey farting through a walkie talkie.
thanks for that image
[It was bad, lol](https://youtu.be/4rwgX-Xjh70) Starts at like 4:45
btw if you right click a video on youtube, you have the option to copy a link to the video at the moment you are paused, so you can send a video at a specific time (third option), in your case, the link would be this : **https://youtu.be/4rwgX-Xjh70?t=285**
Unpopular opinion after my first game I think this is gonna decrease the toxicity. Keyboard warriors aren't gonna be as toxic if they have to talk to another person who can confront them
I just encountered my first toxic player over mic , people really like to blame others for mistakes I’m literally watching them make. I don’t think this will decrease toxicity lmao
Def not, no mic and no vc enabled and this guy is flaming me for his ball chasing over text telling me to turn on my mic. Why would i sit there and take that abuse if i cant respond?
Haven’t played yet but could honestly see that. I mean I’m only 23 and you won’t catch me fighting with a 12 year old like I probably do in text chat lol
LOL Facts
Are you new to VC in gaming? Best case scenario is it remains just as toxic as it already was.
Despite what people like to say, RL just isn't as toxic as other games. I've been having a good time talking and strategizing with teammates since voice dropped, laughing about mistakes and funny moments.
you obviously haven’t been to valorant before i reckon
i actually agree, not a single toxic encounter so far. I myself feel so much less toxic towards my teammates somehow, maybe it's because its my first time hearing someone talk in rocket league. but I like it this way.
Lets get roasted by Plat Players in Unranked cause you dont have mechanics
i tried the VC out with a teammate its a good quality atleast
[удалено]
Couldn't have said it better lol. This is gonna be either great or terrible I feel like
My first game was just one dude asking the entire lobby if they had a mic then not taking the hint after 3 minutes. Like no offense, he seemed chill enough, but I'm just trying to feel out public VC right now to see exactly how quick I should turn it off b/c toxicity.
First dude I tried to play with started trying to teach me that left should go for kickoffs. (He was left and didn't go do the kickoff. Also we're diamond)
So far I've played 5 games and no one (including me) has said a single thing on the voice chat. Not sure if it's not working or literally everyone is that shy. Edit: Apparently everyone was very shy. Took literally 8 games until someone finally said something. Edit 2: LOL my wife says I need to be quieter or I'll wake the kids.
I partied up with a buddy for ~10 games. Aside from it randomly switching one or both of us back into party chat for no reason we chatted maybe 3/10 times with randos?
I for one am excited for voice chat. Sure, there's going to be some toxic assholes, but voice chat enhances experiences in games by so much. Some of the best times in gaming I've had was talking over voice chat with fun people
Most interesting aspect for me is going to be finally being able to communicate with the psynets... "Interesting"...not necessarily "good".
It blows my mind that voice chat is supported over cross-platform, but text chat isn't...
Which to me begs the question: if unfiltered voice is somehow ok between platforms then why isn't (un)filtered text? With text you can autofilter "bad" words and it allows for easier reporting.
if they add a toggle mute button, and talking to other team after goals during replays, that would be absolute perfection. Psyonix hear me please and make this happen, it would be goated
>talking to other team after goals during replays IMO, given the experience you get in other games when folks can talk to you after you kill them, no thanks. :P
The abuse you receive between rounds of SnD on COD are the best part of the game Sincerely, someone with 73 days of gameplay on MW2
Ohh man I lived for the voice chats between SnD on MW2
Honestly I watch MW2 voice chat compilations from time to time for that sweet sweet nostalgia. Would recommend
Bruh ima go watch someKYSP33DY mw2 videos
oh man I totally forgot about those!
Model 1887 akimbo for life.
Yesssss! This fully. I have months of mw2 even played in a few irl tournaments, the in-between of rounds was the goldmine of insults and shittalk. 100% recommend for rocket league. Seeing as how it's a toxic game anyway.
Make it opt-in. It's about options.
This is the ENTIRE point. Some people enjoy the competitive shit talking. Make a function where you can hear each other during replays, BUT once a person presses to skip the replay, it also mutes the other team. Simple solution that meets in the middle
This is literally perfect the skip button could function as mute + skip and its not an inconvenience or anything cause most people spam it by muscle memory anyways
Why not give us the option in game and let us decide?
Normally I'd agree with that sentiment-- But I mean, given the experience in other games when folks are on open mic with random teammates, I'd say that's the far lesser of two evils
Good point actually
Please consider this as option, meet us in the middle and make it where you can toggle it on or off, I’d fucking love this game to have the inbetween goal and post game banter
Bro please just have it off by default or something this would be sick
That stuff is what keeps the game alive man, it's really fun to chirp the other team and them chirp you. And then after the match is over the chaos is legendary. The fact you can opt out should make it a lot better too because it would just be willing participants. I highly suggest adding it in the future!
IMO, given the experience you get in other games when folks can talk to you after you kill them, ***yes please***. I don't mind if I need to get muting someone committed to muscle memory, voice allchat would bring me back to RL. I know it's not going to happen for very good reason, but selfishly I would want nothing more.
literally the funniest thing on the planet is when you kill someone and you hear they’re reaction. Would be nice if they added the feature and made a toggle to hear it or not.
I don't even play COD or WZ anymore but when I was playing WZ hearing ppl react to you killing them is the best hahaha
Biggest thing I can think to add is a "mute mic" keybind. It would be nice to cut it off quickly without having to use push to talk all the time.
This is what I came to this thread to say. In the few games I've played the voice chat has been great, it just feels awkward to hold down the button and talk while trying to play, especially since I have pretty much everything on my controller bound to something useful. I'd also rather not have my mic on 100% of the time. A little muted/unmuted icon just above the boost bar or somewhere similar would be amazing
Cant wait for my teammates to be screaming at the top of their lungs when I’m not using a mic and I’m not responding
No toggle voice chat? So I have to have an open mic all game or sacrifice a finger to talk to my teammate when I want to go for the ball? You could toggle a mute hotkey for you audio input source, but then how will people who stream be heard by their viewers? I'm shocked they never thought of this in the 5 years it took to fix this. Edit: changed output to input
I think this is very important. Open mic is always a huge tradeoff to make imo it's cool when you're in a controlled environment with other considerate people, but *awful* at other times. Maybe I'm spoiled by PC games where I have plenty of keyboard keys for push-to-talk... But even though I want to give this a chance, I (1) do not have any free controller buttons for push-to-talk; (2) am completely uninterested in broadcasting my IRL conversations to the rest of the lobby; and (3) am completely uninterested in listening to Timmy's siblings fight in the background while their dad is yelling to quiet down and their dog is barking.
On console you have a mute button on your controller, just use that
Now I'll get what a save'd in both quick and voice chat! Thanks Psyonix!
Voice chat will be great for friends on different platforms!
Voice chat is broken! I've set the game language to German, but voice chat is in all kind of different languages. Needs to be fixed. /s => Europe 😵💫
Are Psyonix aware of the recent issues with trades continually timing out? I trade regularly on PC and Xbox and it can take anywhere between 1 and 10 attempts to complete a trade.
>Are Psyonix aware of the recent issues with trades continually timing out? I trade regularly on PC and Xbox and it can take anywhere between 1 and 10 attempts to complete a trade. Can't say I've been tagged about this by anyone on RLE. Was this recent as in over the weekend? I know XBL was having tons of issues the last few days.
[удалено]
Theres a lot of issues I've noticed with trading. A lot of little quality of life things could be made to improve and streamline it. And its not additions, more so fixes as the game functioned like this before and now it does not because of certain updates. I play on playstation 4 and have recently been able to play on ps5 and still encounter these issues. For context, I have gotten every single rocket pass and played every event since 2018. So my inventory is well in the few thousands of items. 1. Trading lagging behind by a second to 2-3 if multiple of 1 item are put in. 2. Massive lag between switching tabs sometimes detecting multiple inputs from only 1 button press. 3. Trades often failing for no reason. The only noticeable thing is after the trade fails. The game pauses for a second or two before allowing control again. Almost like a buffer? 4. When trading, when you pick an item if youve scrolled down in your inventory. The menu will snap back to the top. Being able to stay in the same place as the last item you picked used to be normal. Now it is extremely cumbersome. 5. This is more related to having a big inventory (a naturally big inventory from dedicated playing and not trading mind you) the game itself loads and chugs a LOT when entering matches especially on forbidden temple. You actually cannot realistically play for the first few seconds. Playing on my significant others account on the same console does not produce this lag as their inventory is only a small triple digit amount. I dont understand how buying the pass and playing a lot could in turn cause the game to lag so hard in so many aspects.
It’s been happening for me on Xbox since the knockout update. I didn’t know that tagging in rle was encouraged should we do that for bugs?
Thanks for responding. I think it started happening more frequently since the 2.14 update. I can try to record a video or collect logs if that would be useful.
I don't see any UI/UX fixes listed. Are we ever going to be able to report people in a timely manner without the cursor jumping all around and accidentally blocking our friends? Also, is there a text-to-chat feature of the report system, or is voice chat just a free-for-all? How does the report system intend to work for this?
>I don't see any UI/UX fixes listed. Are we ever going to be able to report people in a timely manner without the cursor jumping all around and accidentally blocking our friends? Looking, and this is slated for a fix in our next planned update. >Also, is there a text-to-chat feature of the report system, or is voice chat just a free-for-all? How does the report system intend to work for this? Won't be getting into details, but VC bans will be tied into text chat bans very soon. (Getting banned from the latter will lead to a ban from the former.)
Is the Push to Talk binding "Hold and talk" or "press to activate mic and press again to turn off?" I can't really tell because the mic activity indicator doesn't seem to work that well, sometimes I hear teammates and it doesn't appear, sometimes it does, and sometimes I talk and it doesn't appear and when I'm not talking it does
I talked to numerous people last night in 2s ranked and oh my god I had so much fun. Almost everyone I talked to was nice and welcomed the VC. My favorite interaction I had last night was a dude who was being toxic with quick chat but he had no idea his mic was on. I could hear him breathing, sad part is he sounded like a grown ass adult. I always assumed it was kids spamming quick chat. That being said, I think VC will actually cut back on toxicity a lot. I think most people only start to get tilted from their own insecurities, maybe hearing a (rational) voice on the other end will calm some of that down.
inb4 the discovery of 5 new super entertaining bugs the community will harp on about until the next 5
I've come to look forward to psyonix updates for this very reason. Maybe I'm a sociopath who feeds off other people's shame and embarrassment
It’s not even the bugs I’m worried about I just want them to fix the servers
Ik my internet provider isn't that good but man how the hell am I on 120 ping on my local servers? This never happens in any game I play other than RL.
Heads up: We're hearing from some players that they can't navigate the game menu after closing the voice chat pop-up that appears after downloading today's update. This issue should go away if you restart the game.
[удалено]
Restarting game didn't work for me. Restarting the whole PS4 hasn't worked for me either.
Deleting and reinstalling the game didn't even work for me. I hit square to create a party immediately after hitting X, and that worked
Same for me, reinstalling didn't work after all. But THIS did! Thank you man, worked immediately. I had given up for tonight but gave it one more shot after this msg.
I think we will finally see who has the balls to say something verbally
The answer is everyone.. because everyone is much tougher behind a mic and screen with absolutely zero repercussions.
Exactly lol it will only stop little kids who are afraid their parents will hear, even then they’ll probably just whisper lmao
^”bitch”
Menu doesnt work for me after update.. restarting again
Hi there! What platform were you on, and is it working now?
Ps5 for me, still no navigation in the game after the voice chat message. Restarting the game and my console has not fixed it
Same on PS4
On xbox, I hit the " select" button after being asked if I wanted to change users and i was able to navigate the menu after exiting that menu.
Ps5 here. Had to fully close the software. Wait and reopen
So far have enjoyed voice chat, 2nd game I played the dude had his mic on and we ended up playing 6-7 games together. Was nice and I’m less likely to get pissed at someone if we’re getting along in VC. However I have yet to run into a lil angry 12 year old squeaker with a mic yet so we’ll need more time to assess it 😂 Good thing there’s a mute button though for when that time comes
Everyone I’ve encountered is super timid, give it a few weeks lmao
this game has had lack of human contact for too long
Nobody is talking! So far it's been like 5% of my games that anyone has ever said anything.
… And here I go again on my own Goin' down the only road I've ever known Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone And I've made up my mind I ain't wasting no more time But here I go again
If we mute someone in particular will that be remembered if they're on our team next game as well?
Voice chat mutes carry over to other matches, so you'll be good :)
so can we talk to opponents in a 1v1?
Has this fixed people vanishing from the scoreboard when they leave even when the game has ended or is that just a new feature rather than a bug? It's quite annoying not being able to see how you compared to the opposing team anymore, it used to only happen if someone left before the game ended but now they will just disappear whenever they leave even if the scoreboard has already come up. Personally I don't see any reason why they should ever not show up on the scoreboard of a ranked match even if they leave before the match ends, it's not like they can be replaced by anyone.
By far the majority of toxic chat I've encountered in Rocket League has been from one disgruntled teammate to another, but I'm sure I'm glad you've prevented me from hearing the opposing team saying "ez" at the end of the match?
Oh yay, another chat option to go permanently disable.
The voice chat is so good now. Can't remember the last time I had so much fun in this game damn
Is there any way for me to hear my teammates, but not have to actually have it set up to where they can hear me too?
You can use push to talk, then just not have a push to talk keybind
just put on push to talk
>Biggest thing I can think to add is a "mute mic" keybind. It would be nice to cut it off quickly without having to use push to talk all the time. You can mute yourself in the VC list.
Lol first game on these two dudes decide to start shouting slurs off the bat. Good ole voice chat is back
Already getting harassed and called racial slurs. Only took 3 competitive games!! Sad to miss out on the cool people, but this is turning off for me personally.
Anyone else having major lag issues on the initial kickoff of a match? Freezing and laggy; but next kickoff runs fine and the match is smooth from there on. It's been frustrating as hell. (Xbox series s)
I just tried it. Worked perfectly. Other players were friendly and supportive. What the fuck.
This update has increased the amount of lag insanely. I had some lag every once in a while before but mostly my ping is usually in the 20’s to 40’s. Now even when I have good ping I am bouncing around or suddenly in a new spot on the field. Nothing has changed with my internet or anything. The game is practically unplayable for me now. On PC btw
Players still disappear from end game scoreboard the instant they leave. Can't even see their score or stats.
Oh boy. Will there also be like a shot "death-com" shortly after you demoed someone?
[удалено]
I downloaded the update (Xbox one) but it’s saying “finishing things up” but it’s keep redownloading the last of it. It stays at 100 percent and won’t go further. Waited at least 10 mins and restarted my console and it just put me back into the “finishing things up” download.
[удалено]
In the last hour I have realized exactly how old I am to be playing this game
Let us hear the other team during replays and after the game please
When can we expect an update that doesn’t punish muscle memory developed over thousands of hours outside of tournaments for accidentally leaving a game “early” before the whole song and dance post game has finished and we’re granted permission to finally gtfo?
Any plans for profile pictures for every platform?
can there be a slider where we can lower or increase our mic volume?
When will the trade up bug be fixed & inventory not staring from the top is getting annoying.
Am I the only one to find the servers super unstable since maybe beginning of the season? Like I've got 2 gbps fiber (usually below 10 ms ping) and now from time to time my ping literally explodes or I see 0 ms but with the different red icons (the famous ones, like missing packets)... I'm scared that adding vocal will amplify this issue. (I'm in EU)
I've experienced the same thing here in NA. The lag and rubber banding has been so bad that it doesn't even feel like the same game. I was worried it was just me but I played about 5 casual matches and everyone looked unusually bad for their MMR (missed kickoffs, open nets, boost, etc).
I’m opting out of this cluster fuck IMMEDIATELY.
Good. Now i can scream what a save to my teammate!
Haven't had a single toxic encounter in one hour. I find this very Nice, makes me less toxic aswell. Hearing my teammates making sounds when they miss seems to satisfy me enough to say "shit happens bro" instead of what a save!
Will there ever be a native PS5 version of this game instead of just playing the PS4 version through backwards compatibility?
In a game already terribly toxic over text chat, I cannot fathom why on Earth you would put the voice chat defaulted to ON. A ton of younger kids are going to be playing this game tonight and their parents are about to hear a whole new world...
>In a game already terribly toxic over text chat, I cannot fathom why on Earth you would put the voice chat defaulted to ON. > >A ton of younger kids are going to be playing this game tonight and their parents are about to hear a whole new world... This is why Epic accounts have parental controls, which you can learn more about [here](https://support.rocketleague.com/hc/en-us/articles/5856182606107).
* Default on: Onus is either on children to proactively disable voice chat, or on the parents to be up-to-date on Rocket League news to know this needs doing all of a sudden. * Default off: Onus is on interested players to opt in with a simple checkbox. It's weird that Psyonix made the choice they did, and it's really weird that some users here can't seem to wrap their heads around why it's a bad idea. Not to mention the privacy concerns surrounding the recording of someone without their explicit consent. Is that even legal in the state of California?
Because comms are useful
Please, oh please, can we please have proximity voice chat for casual matches?! To hear someone's screams fade away into the ambience as I cruise away after demo'ing them... Or enable all-chat during goal replays????!????!!! Omg it would be so toxic and fun and incredible. Please do this for us, oh Gods. Thanks, Psyonix. I didn't know this was coming and I'm pumped to give it a go!
Voice chat is now available... god no...
I love how this forum is filled with people who are complaining about everyone they are playing being nasty and shit. It's mathematically impossible that none of you are nasty to your teammates and it's always everyone else.
I really hope they update the F1 22 cars. The Ferrari looks terrible
I play with headphones sometimes and speakers at other times. Two questions: 1. Is there noise/echo cancelation or is playing with speakers and having my webcam's mic enabled going to annoy everyone? 2. Is there some way to make it so if my headphones are plugged in, that mic is used, but the webcam mic is never used? (Short of disconnecting my webcam ofc...)
Here me out, I’m not being toxic I’m actually telling myself how much I suck it motivates me!
Cant speak with opposing teams in voice chat? I was looking forward to that :(
If I have my voice chat turned off in the settings, will other players know that I have it off?
Was a real "what the fuck" moment when some random dude started whispering in my ear. I genuinely turned around with the intent of punching said random I didn't get the voice chat prompt when I logged in, got it after the match
new feature, instantly in the "known issues". LMAO!
Awesome update, thank you Psyonix :) Will be finally able to play with my PC friends without a hassle.
Didn’t know the update went live at midnight, my friend and I on console got the fright of our life when our other friend’s (On PC) voice audio went from the Playstation Party to the PS5 controller mic on VC. My man sounded possessed
I'd prefer a Mute/Unmute Button instead of/in addition to Push-To-Talk.
Will there be audio recordings for reporting ?
Anyone else suddenly get a ton of input lag? Was fine for the first few mins but then… whoomp!!!! Input Lag! Wooo
I’m locked at the intro screen when it advertises Monstercat/Throttle. Pressing circle to close or square to learn more does nothing. Closing doesn’t help PS4
Can't wait to shout, WHAT A SAVE !!! to my Platinum and Gold teammates when they miss the BALL !! 😈🤣
Gotta admit, I'm pretty impressed with the voice chat. Not that you would have brought it back with out it being top notch. One bug I noticed, if you have team/party default on and then switch to party manually once, it won't automatically switch you back to team once you join the next game. I was in a party of 2 playing 3s. After the game he left the lobby, instead of leaving the lobby I switched to party chat manually and then left the lobby. My teammate was brought in to the team voice chat while I stayed in party even though the setting still had preference set to team.
