I can see your drift cut out often, you can hold the drift button while on the air so it stays (or at least that happens to me) although you might accidentally flip somewhere

Leth, the leader pulls away from you twice at this point of the map. 1:27 I think it's a spot to improve. I almost looks like he hits a booster on the ceiling maybe?

@ish_ 8 ай бұрын

Leth’s route with the double boosters is better, the leader is just using a bunch of boost afterwards

@Chris_Myers. 8 ай бұрын

You’ve gotta try aerial pitch mate! It makes most flights much cleaner/faster. Change it off inverse in the controller settings so it matches dodge directions, then you can use that and cut your thruster spend rate by like 75%. Huge tip: It’s coded so that any amount of thrust gives you a set amount of lifted flight time.. meaning if you use the quickest taps possible you can use 1% thrusters for .5+ seconds of lift.

@VerseTalk247 7 ай бұрын

Can you elaborate more on how to do this

@Chris_Myers. 7 ай бұрын

@@VerseTalk247 Rocket Racing > Start > Settings > Game tab > Set “Invert Airborne Control” to OFF. Then, while airborne press the left stick up to fly up and down to fly down. If you need to go up faster, just press dodge and you don’t have to worry about moving the stick because it’s already up due to you pitching up. (Before, you would be pitching up with the stick down, and to dodge up you had to jerk the stick the other direction) And for the thrust, just use very short taps unless you need to gain a lot of height quickly.

@imsurprisable 8 ай бұрын

there is a mechanic on KBM that lets you pitch your car up/down while in the air, allowing you to turbo almost straight forward in the air without using any thrusters. you can also air pitch down to get to the ground quickly if a dodge isn't viable. it's a very useful mechanic that not many people know about, since it can only be found by looking through the keybind settings. (im also not sure if its supported on controller)

@andros4323 8 ай бұрын

i dont think it is i was looking at the bindings of both and they seem to have some features the other does not lol

@palpaleo 8 ай бұрын

On controller it‘s just putting the left stick up or down, i wouldn‘t even call it a mechanic, it‘s like turning left or right on the ground, it‘s just normal in an arcady game like RR, no need to look in the settings

@Chris_Myers. 8 ай бұрын

Yea I noticed Leth never uses aerial pitch, which is up and down on the left joystick. I disabled the inverse pitch so up goes up and it is way more natural because it now matches the dodge directions. You can fly 10 times as far in a more controllable way with pitch up and only tapping thrusters as needed every 1-2 seconds.

How do you downwards flip

@Chris_Myers. 8 ай бұрын

Same as the other directional dodges (left, right, up): Press your assigned Air Dodge button (check under Settings > Controller Mapping) while holding the left joystick downward. I recommend turning off “Inverse View” under Settings > Game, otherwise you will be holding the left stick down to pitch up while flying, making it hard to dodge downward.

I've been stuck on champion 68-74 for hours almost a day now, any advice?

@Cedricson 5 ай бұрын

Wym by "hours almost a day now"? Like your queue times are 1+ hours for the past day? If that's what you meant, then say it ain't so... I'm Diamond III trying to get to your level for those crimson rims xD That sounds miserable though. There isn't much you can do about the wait times, because it is dependent on player count + skill based matchmaking, things get really narrowed down at the highest ranks. My advice is to maybe try getting a full squad to play with you. They will be playing at your rank, assuming you're the highest out of them. In matchmaking, you and your three other squad mates could possibly fill lobbies quicker. If ya wanna try it man you should drop your Epic gamertag, or add me: "Cedricsοn".

Im about 85% Diamond 3, about to hit Elite. I know you lose progress for backing out early but i was just wondering if anyone knows if you eventually start losing progress for poor performance in any of the later rankings like Elite, Champion or Unreal? I ask because between crashing and losing concentration i tend to get bottom 3 just as often as i get top 3. Just wondering if I’ll eventually hit a progress wall so-to-speak.

@palpaleo 8 ай бұрын

Kinda, because there‘s drafting. If you‘re close enough behind someone you‘ll be faster, so there’s kind of a snowball effect where ultimately the 1st probably will be caught up by players behind. This game is all about optimizing your lowest speed by knowing the best routes, boost pads location, and drift lines. And knowing the best times to use your boost charges. So in the end the rubberbanding exists but it‘s way less important than skill.
