There's been many videos made about glitches, bugs and even hacks in Rocket League. In this video I am instead going to look at intentional changes to the game that either confused, angered or just made the player base ask "WHY?". Weird default settings, broken systems never removed, points for demos, and a cosmetic focused game with no presets? Come with me as I count down 7 strange game design decisions as well as try to explain WHY Psyonix might have made them.

IIRC the original dev team started with cars, because that's what they thought were good at. First was car 'sumo' game, where you throw others off a platform to win. That apparently evolved into SARPBC, the predecessor of RL. So the concept alone is certainly whack, but it was a natural progression of devs' skills and hobbies.

I'm on board with all the early cars that nobody uses. Starting with the Merc and Scarab that everyone complains are joke cars but also the Backfire (plus its brother the Boneshaker), the Aftershock, the Triton, the Grog, there are so many other cars people should be using. They're interesting, they're ridiculous, they've got more personality than the dumb "meta" cars everyone uses. The recent trend of stylised sport/super/hypercars is quite boring because they are largely all minor variations of the same theme and I'm starting to struggle to tell them apart at a glance. I wish people would use more cars but they're all being cool people in the cool people club which means you can only drive a slightly goofy RC buggy, or more recently a kinda squarish hatchback thing that the pros begrudgingly started to move to, and nothing else. People who are too cool for the cool people club have always used the Dominus or the Batmobile and while I am sick of the sight of those cars it's for different reasons that I'm sure people already appreciate themselves.

I agree. I get that if they had to do a unique hit box for every car it'd take way longer to make them and there'd be significantly less cars, but if they're going to do it the way they are then i feel like there should be even more cars at this point.
@TheRealFlyingAnt
@TheRealFlyingAnt 4 жыл бұрын
The reason they did this is so the game isn’t pay to win. Buying new cars could give you an advantage if it hit slightly better or carried the ball cleaner. If the new cars are purely cosmetic, everyone is happy. It ain’t about the effort as that is very minimal at the rate they introduce new cars, especially with the 100+ people working at psyonix.

The simplicity of Rocket League is the reason I’ve stayed with it for so long. I played Fortnite for several years, both because of the game itself and because of my friends however at the same time I was playing Rocket League (not nearly as much as Fortnite though) and I even got my friends to play Rocket League with me. We gradually started playing more and there was a point when that’s all we played. But the simplicity of the game is what got my friends. They were so used to an always changing game that playing a game that stayed the same for years on end became boring and 1 by 1 they started going back to Fortnite, my final friend and I ended around gold 3 (we weren’t very good) and I still have a message from the last time I asked him to run some 2s. I had asked him a lot recently and he kept making up excuses so finally I said “do you not like the game anymore” which he replied “yes.” After that I solo qued for a few weeks maybe even a month until I found my new teammate and after 5 months we’re both diamond 2 in 2s. I know I kinda just said a lot of stuff most of which was pointless but I guess what I’m trying to say is that I think the simplicity of the game is what keeps so many players with the game like me but also pushes others away like my friends.

I definitely agree with that. I’m a busy person so there are times in my life where I don’t get to do a lot of gaming and it seems like other games with changing metas like Hearthstone, League of Legends, etc are overwhelming to get back into if you take large breaks or start late. Rocket League on the other hand, I have the comfort of still knowing the best strats if I have to take a break for a few weeks because of life. Edit: Plus I feel like its esports scene is the most welcoming to nonplayers too. When NBC Sports televised a tournament one time I had my dad and mom watching it and they were able to enjoy it because everyone knows the rules of soccer. Other games it seems like you have to play it a bit to even understand the slightest bit what professionals are doing

I think camera shake as default makes sense for the game; it's an arcade-y style game that people play for fun (mostly) and camera shake is a feature which helps juice up the game and makes it feel more impactful. People only turn it off when they want to start taking the game more seriously. The game probably feels more alive/impactful with camera shake on, but given the opportunity people will optimise the fun out of a game, hence they turn off all features that give more life to the game but distract from optimal gameplay (goodbye shake, bloom, weather; hello performance graphics).

@Rocket_Sledge 3 жыл бұрын
People always seem to know or remember but there is no proof. Like I showed in the footage, there was no visual points given for individual demos. 7 has always given 20 though. I have since found old reddit comments during season 1 where people asked devs why demos didnt give points and the devs responded. So I think it's pretty clear that points per demo was never a thing. I have played since launch myself and always went for demos so I also have my personal experience to fall back on. One other test you could do (which I didnt bother) is go back to old replays and watch the scoreboard as people get demos. Anything that gave points (even if it has since been changed) will update the score board as it happens.

There have been changes to rocket league, in the past there were small uodates to ball physics, and then there was an update that made all the cars the same turn radious and then the one that made 3 car hitbix type "octane" "dominus" "merc" while other cars look different their hitboxes are equal to one of the 3 cars since that patch, when in the past all cars had different hitboxes. There have bee changes just nothing insane or really noticeable more to make the playing field more even and comp driven

Yea I wouldn't classify those under the "why" category though. Most made sense to the playerbase, even the hitbox one had a understandable purpose. The fact that people still just use the same cars makes it look like the change was pointless but I get what they were trying to do.

I can assure you that they do not. That chart I show at 6:03 is from the Rocket League wiki and is for stats that had their points removed from the game. It's true it will indicate that you got a bicycle kick but there is no points. You are also correct that some stats (that both do or don't give points) may not appear on screen if you don't have the settings turned on. Extermination is one of those stats actually.

@Rocket_Sledge
@Rocket_Sledge 2 жыл бұрын
Which is why I put a lot of time into researching this. To me it was a myth that just keeps getting passed around while there seemed to exist no picture, video, or article to back it up. Instead everyone who mentions it just seems to remember a different point value. As I have played since 2015 and was big into demos from launch, I am pretty confident they have never given points but I am also able to back up that claim with evidence. First by watching the scoreboard in old replays (that go all the way back to launch) to show that no points are awarded for demolitions. Then by going through the additional alpha and beta footage (as shown in this video). Thus I would expect to see something more than a memory to counter what I said here. I am curious though during what season/year did you remember demolitions giving points?

I don't know if it would exactly be called a feature, but I feel like Psyonix making Rumble, Dropshot, Snowday, and Hoops ranked exclusive was a bit of a hit to the casual audience of the game, definitely a weird decision on their part, deciding to alter instead of add to the available modes shouldn't really be done to that extent. I have a couple of friends who play the game casually from time to time, the most fun they have is in private match rumble since doing it in ranked just isn't an atmosphere that they are interested in, especially if I'm partied up with them and they're forced to play with much higher ranked players. I think it's definitely a needed change to make them casual playlists alongside being available as ranked if they ever do decide to go free to play, possibly even doing this before that happens (if it does).

Gotta agree with hah there. Yes, some people might play those modes a tad more tryhard now, but at least they stay longer and you're not left with a bunch of bots. Also the general skill level in those modes has increased I feel, which I'd also count as a positive. I think to make them ranked was the right thing to do to keep them relevant.
