NeverCast#1448: Ah yeah. That's the Gold slump NeverCast#1448: Consistency is the worst. NeverCast#1448: Whenever someone asks. "How is that person such high rank" consistency is the answer most the time. ccman32#4022: well i do feel like I'm technically really not that bad at all ccman32#4022: but tactics are a problem ccman32#4022: especially when teammates just do their own thing and everyone gets into each others way NeverCast#1448: Yeah. It's hard to be strategic when teammates don't understand the concept NeverCast#1448: Then you just play janitor and clean up their ballchase. NeverCast#1448: I think my tactics are good, but my mechanical is greatly lacking. NeverCast#1448: Walls screw me and dodges still confuse me ccman32#4022: yeah walls are an issue sometimes for me ccman32#4022: but i think most of the basics are quite solid for me NeverCast#1448: My shoot/kill ratio is like 30% haha ccman32#4022: haven't checked my statistics for qutie a while lol ccman32#4022: lol did they reset these at some point or what
ccman32#4022: i have like 50% of all shots are goals NeverCast#1448: Maybe that means you hit the wall a lot :p ccman32#4022: lol why NeverCast#1448: Because that doesn't count as a shot on goal Yannoux#6969: being ban only means you can't play with friends apparently... ccman32#4022: wow, finally at least gold 3 again lol axelalex2#5793: I DID IT! https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/435952364009029643/2018-04-18-015645_4864x1440_scrot.png dtracers#9598: Nice noodle beard#0367: dang @axelalex2 I've got some catching up to do noodle beard#0367: Just got my Champ 1 back with this goal, so I'm coming for you noodle beard#0367: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrkB60zPB6M axelalex2#5793: So i just did this xDDD https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/436084895350128651/62D5210411E842E4D28502B7D8101DE8.replay Yannoux#6969: so i found this ... and compared dick size with it... i'm disapointed Yannoux#6969: https://rocketleague.tracker.network/ NeverCast#1448: Haha. Yeah. You're Gold tho right?
NeverCast#1448: So you're better than like 90% of all of rocket league Yannoux#6969: i'm in the top 80% NeverCast#1448: Ehhh!? Damn... The average player base has gotten better Yannoux#6969: one crude way to say bellow average 😭 GooseFairy#6680: That site seems to not work rn? Yannoux#6969: idk Yannoux#6969: it works fine for me... NeverCast#1448: Well. Have you considered getting better ? :P GooseFairy#6680: Says psyonix has disabled their API temporarily Yannoux#6969: i have considered. but not trying hard Yannoux#6969: might just try harder in japan tho... Yannoux#6969: 😏 NeverCast#1448: Don't you have any local servers ? Yannoux#6969: ? i will move to japan, is what i was saying NeverCast#1448: Try not ball chasing, and practice good clears.
NeverCast#1448: Since if you're not ball chasing. Everyone else in Gold will be. So you'll have to make some nice saves NeverCast#1448: Oh right. Move to Japan. Ahh ye Yannoux#6969: intership and stuff. VR and unity related Yannoux#6969: stuff i know already, so it's more like vacations for me... not paid but it's fine Yannoux#6969: i notice that every time i go for the ball there are no body defending. i'm almost rotating alone... axelalex2#5793: @Yannoux you now RLTracker? Yannoux#6969: you mean you know ? Yannoux#6969: yeas kinda. Yannoux#6969: it looks like i'm simply bad at competitive games... even if i try hard i manage to be above average. Yannoux#6969: my lol rank was silver Yannoux#6969: the only game where i excel is in Tetris friends...way to talk about an achievement 😄 GooseFairy#6680: I played competitive tf2 back when it was community run GooseFairy#6680: :p axelalex2#5793: all my MMRs (except for Solo Standard, because Solo Standard is crap) have been rocketing the last days http://rltracker.pro/profiles/axelalex2/steam
axelalex2#5793: weirdly enough, the match history in the stats show my actual MMR, while the chart and the overview are still at a state of 2 days ago Sciguymjm#5935: blame caching axelalex2#5793: yeah, it's good now xD Sciguymjm#5935: @GooseFairy ayy i played comp tf2 too. i led a UGC iron/silver team for two years GooseFairy#6680: Lol I joined a ugc steel 6s team for a season and we won half our matches xD GooseFairy#6680: Also played highlander for a bit but that was just a team of friends Yannoux#6969: saying i'm good at tetris because i'm in the top 30% in marathon... twobackfromtheend#1471: i've managed to derank in 3's from champ to diamond and derank solo 3's from diamond to plat in one session dtracers#9598: HEY dtracers#9598: thats been me dtracers#9598: this past couple of weeks dtracers#9598: except i have not made it to plat twobackfromtheend#1471: pssh dtracers#9598: im super close though twobackfromtheend#1471: you needed weeks
twobackfromtheend#1471: i did it in hours dtracers#9598: from champ 1 do diamond 2? twobackfromtheend#1471: champ 1 to diamond 3 in standard twobackfromtheend#1471: diamond 1 to plat 3 in solo standard twobackfromtheend#1471: what a nice dip https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/436657497856540672/unknown.png dtracers#9598: oh no i did it from champ 1 to diamond 2 dtracers#9598: and from diamond 3 to to diamond 1 dtracers#9598: get on my level twobackfromtheend#1471: nah i'mout twobackfromtheend#1471: count me out of this entire tournament dtracers#9598: lol what tournament? dtracers#9598: are you gonig to lose to the bots too dtracers#9598: 😮 twobackfromtheend#1471: i was quoting yemen NeverCast#1448: I had hoped to reach Diamond 1 this season, I think I have failed 😦
NeverCast#1448: How long do I have? dtracers#9598: a while? dtracers#9598: they have not announced the end yet NeverCast#1448: Oh. Neat. There is still time. NeverCast#1448: I have gone up every season that I've played, one rank at a time. NeverCast#1448: Last season I got plat rewards, I need diamond this time! Yannoux#6969: can anyone explain me why i stay in silver even when i do matches like theses ? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437200823802658837/B8A145E2403DE4F3304375B38BBA547B.replay Yannoux#6969: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437200833080459274/6D7FBC134F8AB93DA26D5892BBF6376A.replay axelalex2#5793: holy fuck, your cam settings, i'm getting dizzy axelalex2#5793: Tbh, everyone once in a while has games, where everything just works. If you want others to tell you what to improve, send a replay of a "typical" loss or a close game.. twobackfromtheend#1471: just watched the first game. it's mostly just your opponent making extremely questionable decisions twobackfromtheend#1471: like sometimes he's literally a second late to the ball axelalex2#5793: the second guy is too passive in general, but we cannot tell you what's going wrong with your ranked matches, if you show us your biggest wins :P twobackfromtheend#1471: the second guy literally missed this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437206372807999488/20180421120143_1.jpg twobackfromtheend#1471: i get the feeling he was having a bad game mechanically speaking and this really affected his decision making (like he might've been second guessing himself)
twobackfromtheend#1471: are these like the sadjunior camera settings or something twobackfromtheend#1471: "hanging out in a helicopter" Yannoux#6969: i will send a more typical game where i did my best next time. Yannoux#6969: with loss anyways. Yannoux#6969: i have one where i tried to be ultra defending... which didn't worked out Yannoux#6969: but it was in 3v3 Yannoux#6969: ok i'm done with trying hard in this game Yannoux#6969: last game me made a goal, then the guy who did the goal dc. so we were left with an other guy who dealt pretty good with arials but he only wanted to follow the ball all the time. so i started to defend... missed one save he quitted. Yannoux#6969: then i got rect because i was alone and not able to me at mutiple places at the same time. Yannoux#6969: ended in a 2:4 at 1min before i quit Yannoux#6969: last replay i have saved... i guess it is called something like typical silver game ... if you want to see how bad i am Yannoux#6969: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437267693335347210/39AA62D74EEA9D6095C5F5B9A57B1E72.replay axelalex2#5793: Alright, the goal you conceded is already really dumb; you got to communicate with your teammates, especially at the very first kickoff. If you are not sure if the guy beside you is ready to play (because his tires were not moving), go for the kickoff yourself. axelalex2#5793: 1 30 minutes into the replay, you are playing pretty solid so far axelalex2#5793: the kickoff after the 2:1, only one guy needs to go, again quick chat communication
axelalex2#5793: but that's pretty much the only issue in this game; of course you are not carrying your team, but you give them a solid backline by staying at the midfield line and pushing up when the ball comes to your side to buy your teammates time to reset axelalex2#5793: so basically a lower skilled version of Kronovi/Fireburner/Torment/ViolentPanda axelalex2#5793: If you want to really rank up, you got to learn some air control, that's the thing i have seen as the most severe in your car control so far. All others around this rank are not really familiar with aerials, so if you get them down and continue being the safeline for your team, you might be able to rank up by 2 major ranks (Silver 1 to Silver 3) in a few days ccman32#4022: not familiar with aerials? ccman32#4022: when was the last time you played on this level? ccman32#4022: To me it seems like literally everyone in this game can do aerials already axelalex2#5793: he corrected the angle of his car towards the ball multiple times in the air, so i would not say he can do them safely ccman32#4022: doing them and doing them safely is a big difference axelalex2#5793: just getting a touch by aerialing is not what you want to do axelalex2#5793: that's why i said training aerial controls might be the best way to rank up ccman32#4022: no not at all ccman32#4022: its tactics and positioning axelalex2#5793: he does that well already by being the third man (given that this replay shows his usual playstyle) Tangil#3830: > tactics > in solo queue
ccman32#4022: exactly ccman32#4022: because you must be so good in that that you can compensate the lack of common sense of your teammates 😂 axelalex2#5793: I'm champ 3 in 2s not because i can do the sickest mechanical stuff, but rather because i know how to play in a team. Another reason why i'm relatively bad at 1s. Being able to enable your teammate(s) how they like to play is a huge skill, which most people don't understand. Kronovi/Fireburner do the best job at it. Even they tend to stay back and let JKnaps and Rizzo/GarrettG and jstn do their incredible offense, while they fill the holes of the defense, if their offensive push fails. Torment does this with Squishy and Gimmick as well, but as Gimmick was quiet offensively this season, Torment couldn't fill in the holes as he was used to do. axelalex2#5793: So, tactically inXS212 does really well. Enabling his teammates to play like they want to play. If you have players in the team, who always fling themselves at the ball, let them do that, and back them up. It's pretty much the only way to be successful, because they don't change their playstyle that quickly. Tangil#3830: that's a nice analysis Tangil#3830: Just rekt from n00bs and won 6-2, someone tell me why I shouldn't be in Grand Champ right now axelalex2#5793: because you conceded 2 goals Tangil#3830: hahaha Tangil#3830: i barely play this game anymore so i'm happy with my performance so far ccman32#4022: so what shall i train? ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437277931857772555/4C75CBE5430016E9D00B44856A11BE44.replay Tangil#3830: holy fuk i just rewatched an entire replay of a match because i liked my performance enough axelalex2#5793: now not anymore? :P axelalex2#5793: @ccman32 i'll finish my uni homework, then i'll take a look
Tangil#3830: @ccman32 i'll take a look, even if i'm probably worse than you 😛 ccman32#4022: ^^ Tangil#3830: i'm 1:23 but you really need to let your opponent touch the ball Tangil#3830: ok maybe not as much now ccman32#4022: my opponent? why? ccman32#4022: xD Tangil#3830: ***partner ccman32#4022: oh ok xD ccman32#4022: well first match of the day lol Tangil#3830: also maybe improve your aerials since you missed them at the start of the replay Tangil#3830: i guess not accuracy as much as judgement of when you should go for the aerial ccman32#4022: yeah i miss a lot ccman32#4022: but always very very close ccman32#4022: its so annoying Tangil#3830: yeah so you need to train at that
ccman32#4022: lemme upload another replay Tangil#3830: a good pack is the Uncomfortable Saves one Yannoux#6969: well thx. i though i had trained my aerials enough. but from what you say it seems that i don't really master them. so ... i will focus on this later. right now i must unsalt from last games... axelalex2#5793: no problem. I mean you hit the ball consistently, but you correct a lot, that's the issue i see ;) ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437281140957773825/72BE0E4D4DF4C194ABFD86B02AAF838A.replay Yannoux#6969: the first goal we coincided i though he was in game. and then though about our guy behind who could defend it anyway... could not predict who would go where. i said take it ... axelalex2#5793: @ccman32 finished your first replay. You didn't get into the space of your teammate too much, so that's a plus. The shots you took in the second half of the game were threatening and one being successful, so that was good as well. Your decisions to go for aerials were correct, too, but every time you go for an aerial, you jump only once to preserve your second jump to dodge into the ball. It's good, when the ball is relatively low, but if it is high up in the air, there is no way you will reach that. You got to use the double jump sometimes to reach the ball earlier (or even reach it at all, because you flew by most of the high balls ^^) axelalex2#5793: Second replay, really good play for your second goal, perfect timing, when the opponents disregarded their space to each other. ccman32#4022: lol i never double jump up ccman32#4022: would probably be difficult af to change that since i play like this for way over a year Tangil#3830: i used to not double jump also but you should just try Tangil#3830: it really helps with higher aerials axelalex2#5793: At two of the goals you conceded in the end, you could have done a little better. The 4:5 went in, because you and your teammate closed in at each other, making it easier for the opponents to get around you and score the goal. It's not your or your teammates fault in particular, you both are equally responsible for that. Your defensive play at 4:6 was okay, your teammate couldn't keep up the defense. At the 4:7, you hesitated slightly after you took the kickoff; instead if you would have gone directly for the boost at the side and go back in defense, you could have made a safe. It's again not your fault in particular, but you could have backed up your teammate after he failed to follow up the kickoff. You only should stay at the ball after the kickoff, if it is in directly near you, otherwise go for boost. But all in all, you actually won that game 4:3, so 👍 axelalex2#5793: And yes, double jump aerials are important for high balls to get into higher ranks.
ccman32#4022: jesus fucking christ WHAT a match ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/437289308785737747/319506C1422B49119B675BBD95581C08.replay axelalex2#5793: wow, you really got lucky, that your teammates didn't punish you axelalex2#5793: your teammate has a shit cam xD ccman32#4022: punish in what way? xD axelalex2#5793: score goals? there is no other way punishing mistakes in rocket league :P ccman32#4022: im really not sure what you mean axelalex2#5793: the save on the goalline in the overtime you had to make before you got the winning goal? They had an open net, because you overcommitted into your teammates space, and they didn't score axelalex2#5793: until 3:3 everything was fine, but i have to rewatch the game from your teammates perspective axelalex2#5793: your opponents had another open net at 2 minutes game time on the clock axelalex2#5793: didn't score ccman32#4022: the part i didnt understand is ccman32#4022: how can my teammates punish me by scoring goals? axelalex2#5793: oh, the fuck did i type there? xD ccman32#4022: xDDD
axelalex2#5793: meant the opponents of course axelalex2#5793: xDDD axelalex2#5793: I suspect you and your teammate had troubles seeing each other in the overtime, because you came close on another on multiple occasions. For him it was, because of his annoying cam settings, i think for you it was more, because you like to play upfront - which is fine, but if it is time for the teammate to hit the ball (which usually is the case, when you are not close to the ball or you are retreating back to defense), then let him do it and not suddenly turn around to go for another hit. ir0nhamm3r#8963: what rank are you guys btw? ccman32#4022: in what ir0nhamm3r#8963: whatever ir0nhamm3r#8963: mean rank (if that's relevant haha) ccman32#4022: gold/plat-ish Yannoux#6969: high end silver 😒 ir0nhamm3r#8963: can't your bot play for you? haha ir0nhamm3r#8963: "The framework cannot be used online" well ccman32#4022: how can u see his cam settings @axelalex2 axelalex2#5793: Just watch his player cam in the replay; i cannot see the exact parameters he has, but his car makes up 25% of his view all the time. ccman32#4022: lol didnt know it actually applied player cam settings there Yannoux#6969: it applies your camera setting .the other player in the replay will not have there cam setting registered
Yannoux#6969: instead they will have the default one. which i found worst than having no camera. Yannoux#6969: low altitude, close to the car. behind the car and can't see in front of you when you dribble Yannoux#6969: also camera would take a second to settle to stabilize between ballcam and not. twobackfromtheend#1471: no. replays show all players' own camera settings. Yannoux#6969: camera settings is not shared between players even in spectator mode ? twobackfromtheend#1471: ``` { "Id": 4, "TypeName": "TAGame.Default__CameraSettingsActor_TA", "ClassName": "TAGame.CameraSettingsActor_TA", "InitialPosition": { "X": 0, "Y": 0, "Z": 0 }, "TAGame.CameraSettingsActor_TA:bUsingSecondaryCamera": true,

Yannoux#6969: as for players making a replay it is not ... twobackfromtheend#1471: i don't get what you're trying to say Yannoux#6969: there is this spectator mode in private matches where you can see matches in live. Yannoux#6969: the thing you would see in tournaments and exibitions matches twobackfromtheend#1471: yup Yannoux#6969: this is the spectator i am talking about. if this spectator change players camera. will it see the player's cam settings used ? or will it see it's own (spectator) settings used ? twobackfromtheend#1471: you will always see the player's cam settings twobackfromtheend#1471: not your own Yannoux#6969: even in replay mode ? twobackfromtheend#1471: yes Yannoux#6969: what if a player (and not a spectator) records a match ? will the replay contain cam settings ? twobackfromtheend#1471: yes Yannoux#6969: so it is always shared between players ? twobackfromtheend#1471: yes
Yannoux#6969: i though it was not, like never twobackfromtheend#1471: nah, you can always see everyone's camera settings. Yannoux#6969: have you seen mine ? what do you think of it? somebody said it made him dizzy... i don't get it .(*that guy should try an hour of Roller coasters in VR*) twobackfromtheend#1471: your camera height is very very high Yannoux#6969: close to the ground looks bad. it feels like i'm always fast AF and i can't see when i dribble. twobackfromtheend#1471: whatever suits you 😛 twobackfromtheend#1471: http://liquipedia.net/rocketleague/List_of_player_camera_settings you can look at this for reference twobackfromtheend#1471: usually when dribbling it's commonly said a closer camera gives you better ball control twobackfromtheend#1471: map awareness is usually not a problem if you've played enough, and opponent-awareness is usually good enough by listening/looking before your dribble Yannoux#6969: yet can you predict opponens ? Kappa twobackfromtheend#1471: lol. but faking is a thing only because you can literally predict opponents sometimes Yannoux#6969: faking also became a sort of 'lag excuse' from what i have seen. twobackfromtheend#1471: lol yeah. it's funny Yannoux#6969: silvers are expert in faking. they can even fake last tick goals Yannoux#6969: Kappa
Yannoux#6969: don't make me talk about bronze and the total mind game going on Kappa Yannoux#6969: they have reached a higher level of faking, faking the fakes. making them illusions, therefore nothing Yannoux#6969: i will now proceed to try hard. NeverCast#1448: Faking only works though, if your opponent thinks you're actually capable of hitting the ball. So that rules out Bronze and Silver. Following that, faking only works if your opponent can see anything other than the ball. Which rules out Gold and Low Plat. Yannoux#6969: does not mean they would try to fake Kappa Yannoux#6969: fake works only in 1v1 or in higher ranks Sciguymjm#5935: final scores 🤦 im the top one https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/442121213658267649/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: still lost skoocda#6230: ouch Sciguymjm#5935: overtime ;-; https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/442127456476856321/unknown.png skoocda#6230: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/442183696657809417/IMG_20180504_204258.jpg skoocda#6230: Same feels skoocda#6230: But I don't have a screenshot key Tangil#3830: i think steam's screenshot key in any game is f12 Tangil#3830: tfw a game has f12 as a key but so does steam

Marvin#2413: Yeah i know dtracers#9598: @GooseFairy could you trick the all Star to getting a second touch that goes in GooseFairy#6680: yea I just started doing that but I haven't found it to be a reliable replacement Marvin#2413: close enough lol https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/443621582410088478/148.jpg GooseFairy#6680: lol how long did that take to finish? Marvin#2413: it says 19 minutes in the corner haha Marvin#2413: it's more than that tho because of goal replays chip#7643: so the all stars just do the same kickoff every time, or? GooseFairy#6680: the off-center ones differ sometimes axelalex2#5793: @GooseFairy do you remember my record? I don't even remember myself ^^ GooseFairy#6680: Im assuming 39 because that was the last image you posted about it axelalex2#5793: Got it. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/443853404612329482/E94E19C811E853BCEA49F8A99442370A.replay axelalex2#5793: @GooseFairy no comment? :P GooseFairy#6680: was I supposed to watch it? axelalex2#5793: ehm, yes? xD
GooseFairy#6680: https://gyazo.com/100ac4b446c0ac1bdd1a9f4195852658.gif GooseFairy#6680: does this happen to you dtracers#9598: Yes GooseFairy#6680: i want it to not happen dtracers#9598: No Sciguymjm#5935: hell yeah. thats two this week alone https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/444662779236843540/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/258751782929432576/444318775282761766/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: also got this recently Skyborg#0894: Next place, csgo overwatch axelalex2#5793: Does someone want to play with me in the Universal Open Qualifiers EU? twobackfromtheend#1471: it was like this for 30s. i didnt even know this was possible. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/445543696151085056/20180514120346_1.jpg twobackfromtheend#1471: about a minute later a pair joined axelalex2#5793: 2x C3 now, geez, i'm getting a lot better Sciguymjm#5935: What do you think you improved in? axelalex2#5793: consistency first of all
axelalex2#5793: there was no special technique i trained dtracers#9598: I need to train up my wall hits they are my weakest right now that actually effect my gameplay. But I got back to champ in standard dtracers#9598: I also need to just sleep Aliaenor#1443: I'm proud of y'all hansmeier#9999: sq is so toxic ... People playing solo and all in the whole game, then wondering why there was no chance ... hansmeier#9999: uh and 9/10 but silver 3 ... in standard I got ranked into p2 Sciguymjm#5935: anyone want to boost me to champ? im high dia 3 Sciguymjm#5935: /s Sciguymjm#5935: actually just looking to play if anyone wants to dtracers#9598: in 3s? Sciguymjm#5935: 2s and 3s dtracers#9598: what are you in 2s? Sciguymjm#5935: and solo standard too
dtracers#9598: im diamond 1 Sciguymjm#5935: diamond 3 div 4 dtracers#9598: i can probably get you to champ in 2s Sciguymjm#5935: we can give it another try ;) Sciguymjm#5935: im d3 in everything but solos dtracers#9598: i made it to champ in 3s dtracers#9598: and i slept pretty well dtracers#9598: but ill need some warmup games Sciguymjm#5935: oh good dtracers#9598: also an hour 😛 dtracers#9598: till i can head home Sciguymjm#5935: im not really concerned about getting it. if i dont its not a big deal, i just need to put hours in i think dtracers#9598: @Edwin. is a good partner btw dtracers#9598: but you need to play on eu servers dtracers#9598: (which are better than east for me)
ccman32#4022: lol i actually didnt play for like half a month ccman32#4022: when is this season over? axelalex2#5793: Late May ccman32#4022: hm k ccman32#4022: im still on gold reward :/ dtracers#9598: you can do it! dtracers#9598: also can you beat rashbot? ccman32#4022: nah, im far away from plat in everything rn ccman32#4022: and unranked in everything except doubles dtracers#9598: oh it would be cool if we had some people that could play against the bots and establish a rank for them ccman32#4022: what do you mean establish a rank dtracers#9598: well if we for example know your rank in game dtracers#9598: but you lose to rashbot sometimes dtracers#9598: then we know that rashbot is only slightly worse than you dtracers#9598: then we can establish the rank of rashbot as if it was a player in game
ccman32#4022: well, right now i'd probably lose Skyborg#0894: @ccman32 I only have gold too, now I'm silver in everything, if you want we can try in the weekend ccman32#4022: i find it funny how everyone says "only gold" or "only plat" while in fact thats better than 50% of all ranked players ccman32#4022: not to mention the ones that dont even play ranked ccman32#4022: and im not at home this weekend Aliaenor#1443: I wonder if it's easier to build a better bot if you're higher ranked ccman32#4022: if you're higher ranked? no ccman32#4022: if you're a better player? yes Aliaenor#1443: What's the difference twobackfromtheend#1471: I'd actually say no it won't make a diff twobackfromtheend#1471: so long as you're better than the bot you build twobackfromtheend#1471: the same way giving grand champion positional advice to a silver won't do him good, you just gotta be able to figure out what the bot's limitations and how to improve them - which you can do as long as you're better than it dtracers#9598: I think it actually depends. If a player mechanically sucks but Is tactical they can make a much better bot than the other way around ccman32#4022: @Aliaenor you can get boosted to a higher rank :p Aliaenor#1443: Good point
Edwin.#7531: @dtracers thnx <3 Also not necessarily EU, but for us it turned out better than US-E dtracers#9598: yes dtracers#9598: idk why dtracers#9598: also i can play if you want to for a little bit Edwin.#7531: I gotta get to school >< dtracers#9598: thats lame Edwin.#7531: Would love to but can't today Sprütz#2222: leaving a game during the ot replay doesnt net me a season reward win :reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee: dtracers#9598: LOL dtracers#9598: that sucks Sprütz#2222: wait nvm it works Sprütz#2222: the win just only gets added on the next time you win ccman32#4022: lol got from gold to plat reward with not even 1 lose ccman32#4022: wtf

Aliaenor#1443: Squishy 1 through 3 JadedLeaf#8963: and then a bunch of usbs will come out with me holding them JadedLeaf#8963: ez Aliaenor#1443: Lmao JadedLeaf#8963: plug each of them in JadedLeaf#8963: even has a self built in non emotion extension JadedLeaf#8963: just like squishy Aliaenor#1443: I thought those already came by default😂 JadedLeaf#8963: exactly JadedLeaf#8963: shh JadedLeaf#8963: don't let anyone know JadedLeaf#8963: i can make it seem like i made that myself Aliaenor#1443: Brilliant GooseFairy#6680: hi twobackfromtheend#1471: my signature move has lately been positioning myself well, missing an aerial i launch myself towards, then proceeding to hesitate on everything thereafter, making my good positioning bad.
Aliaenor#1443: My signature move is rushing everything Tangil#3830: My signature move has been not playing actively for like 3 months, coming back and being silver GooseFairy#6680: o snap redox we need you to see if paul can beat you GooseFairy#6680: xD Tangil#3830: Dys Aliaenor#1443: Lmao Aliaenor#1443: I know people who like to 1v4 all star bots for practice GooseFairy#6680: that's me Aliaenor#1443: Yeet GooseFairy#6680: sometimes I try to see how many goals I can get against an allstar 1v1 GooseFairy#6680: highest in a 5 min match is 48 GooseFairy#6680: xD twobackfromtheend#1471: 1v4 all star bots is really bad imo, they completely suck at airplay, sometimes decide to steal all the boost, and sometimes inadvertently bump you and the ball rolls into the net. it's just a really high variance play with not much to learn for the human. and good luck if the bots spawn 2 diagonal on kickoff. Aliaenor#1443: I'm somewhat of a coach if y'all ever need help with replays etc
Aliaenor#1443: Yeah that makes sense GooseFairy#6680: 1v4 allstar is salt simulator 2018 GooseFairy#6680: xD Aliaenor#1443: It's good for learning how to keep possession tho Aliaenor#1443: Cause they'll just keep throwing themselves at you GooseFairy#6680: I use them for practicing saves lol GooseFairy#6680: https://gyazo.com/08df25d6687dd875ba75f26a8c4aa76e.gif GooseFairy#6680: woah you can get promotions on a loss now? dtracers#9598: if you leave the last game recently GooseFairy#6680: leave the last game recently? dtracers#9598: like if you leave early dtracers#9598: like while the replay is happening in overtime GooseFairy#6680: wat GooseFairy#6680: well I didn't do that GooseFairy#6680: I lost and got a promotion lol
Tangil#3830: If you left the game early on the match before the loss match, it shows you the promotion on the next match (your loss match) skoocda#6230: @Sciguymjm @dtracers we're all pretty closely ranked in 3s we should play some when i get back from dublin in a week Sciguymjm#5935: Sure :^) GooseFairy#6680: I never leave matches lol GooseFairy#6680: so yea I randomly got a promotion on a loss dtracers#9598: sure dtracers#9598: ive been hovering around champ some weeks having it some weeks not Sciguymjm#5935: I've been hovering around d3 div4 in solo standard which is apparently a feat in itself dtracers#9598: that is impressive dtracers#9598: i was there a while ago Sciguymjm#5935: i want to die https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/447520074220175360/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: and we still lost Sciguymjm#5935: holy shit https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/447520136862236693/unknown.png dtracers#9598: wow Sciguymjm#5935: that shouldn't be allowed
dtracers#9598: thats just not fair dtracers#9598: they can just do unranked Sciguymjm#5935: two games with a thrower on either team, one game with that bullshit, other games with people who seriously don't know how to rotate. why do i do this to myself dtracers#9598: you can play with @Aliaenor and be the gold player Sciguymjm#5935: i already know too many GCs who wont play with me for that reason lol Sciguymjm#5935: wait wait, no this would be like that dude playing with a plat 3, not a gold 3 Sciguymjm#5935: gold 3 is two whole ranks down from champ, gc is one rank from champ dtracers#9598: skill wise tho.... dtracers#9598: it is said 1k hours for champ dtracers#9598: then 2k for gc dtracers#9598: so maybe i should say bronze player 😛 Sciguymjm#5935: but skill isn't linear to time invested. thats not how it works Sciguymjm#5935: have you played with a plat 3 lately dtracers#9598: yeah they wrekt me in solo duel 😢 dtracers#9598: ill never get out of plat 2 in solos
Sciguymjm#5935: the gold dude didn't know what a rotation was Sciguymjm#5935: reminder i was the d3 on a team of two gcs for like 6 months before they found another gc ;-; Tangil#3830: Oh I'm sure he knows what rotation is, he just doesn't care Tangil#3830: I know cause I'm silver Sciguymjm#5935: lol Sciguymjm#5935: ok fair Tangil#3830: And I was so close to plat Aliaenor#1443: I got mentioned. Low chance I'll play over the summer cause work and school but I'll let ya know if I can 👌 Sprütz#2222: How do you play 1v4 vs all star bots? Tangil#3830: With a controller or keyboard Sprütz#2222: :facepalm: Sprütz#2222: Theres a 1v4 option? I thought theres only a 1v2 unfair mode twobackfromtheend#1471: unfair 2v2 is a 1v2. unfair 4v4 is a 1v4. you can change the normal XvX thing (which in unfair is 1vX) Sprütz#2222: 👀 Sprütz#2222: Oh
dtracers#9598: You can also use our bots dtracers#9598: In an unfair match Sprütz#2222: But when i join in on a 1v10 game all bots lose control dtracers#9598: that makes sense dtracers#9598: you can only have 10 palyers max dtracers#9598: you need to specific the player index in the framework dtracers#9598: it is made much more obvious in the v4 gui Sprütz#2222: Oh ok Edwin.#7531: Once it works 🎉 Edwin.#7531: I'm hoping it will soon Tangil#3830: Soon ™ Tangil#3830: Can't wait for the GUI though Edwin.#7531: Pressure ™ dtracers#9598: @Edwin. let me know if you want me to do another code review so we can get it merged in today! 😃 twobackfromtheend#1471: :rizzF:

GooseFairy#6680: reliefbot does GooseFairy#6680: and leaf Skyborg#0894: really? whow, he's much more advanced that i thought GooseFairy#6680: reliefbot is pretty nutty GooseFairy#6680: again it all comes down to strategy now GooseFairy#6680: strats is where it's at Sprütz#2222: playing placements is like going in a time machine Sprütz#2222: you see all these apes, then they evolve into apes that can use a controller and then finally humans GooseFairy#6680: lol GooseFairy#6680: what's your rank in solo standard?

drssoccer55#6192: I played only my 10 placement matches and got semi-carried so I took my rank and stopped :) drssoccer55#6192: Plat 2. I think I was plat 1 last season but I took a long hiatus so I am not completely at my best yet. twobackfromtheend#1471: i feel like i got to champ and went on to get my rewards playing far from my best - was extremely rusty and hesitant, but i generally managed to get carried. twobackfromtheend#1471: decided to stop for a while - but that meant queuing only duos/solo 3's when i liked 3's the best, so after a while i continued playing and voila, i went back to diamond, champ rewards gotten and everything. gyfis#8295: for those of you who are diamand+ - what you did to get from plat to diamand? dtracers#9598: Training packs GooseFairy#6680: I started landing 1 out of 10 wall touches dtracers#9598: For me it was making better passes off the back wall dtracers#9598: But that didn't work solo queue. Sciguymjm#5935: also in general playing faster. going for hits faster than opponents, etc. but you have to be able to hit them in the first place. so training packs Sciguymjm#5935: not necessarily *moving* faster, but reacting faster gyfis#8295: training packs... 🤔 gyfis#8295: sounds like a better way forward than the occasional hoops I play, thanks! dtracers#9598: Yeah dtracers#9598: Hoops helps getting diamond 2
dtracers#9598: To diamond 3 GooseFairy#6680: Lol GooseFairy#6680: I haven't played other game modes in so long lol twobackfromtheend#1471: i haven't played other game modes too. from plat to diamond i think i just played much faster, going for high % plays even if they don't work out directly for me (ie taking hard shots that tend to bounce off the backboard and turn into passes). i think it was around the time i started to really hit aerials - ie getting good, directed hits on aerials rather than just trying to get a touch on the ball. even now the all-star aerial training is a really good warmup imo. trying to get good hard shots from that isn't as easy as it seems. and that really translates well into games where there are plenty of such balls (nice, slow, high balls that are ripe for passing/shooting instead of hitting in the general direction of the opponent's side) axelalex2#5793: fast aerials GooseFairy#6680: https://gyazo.com/8310be79e34d3ed3c92cc562597e4ca5.gif GooseFairy#6680: nobody skipped the instant replay gyfis#8295: kinda bummed by the fact that the action happened between frames there GooseFairy#6680: I can fix that GooseFairy#6680: https://gyazo.com/84b4a750d8a11a81b164f7c8dbb2ac77.gif gyfis#8295: wow gyfis#8295: nice GooseFairy#6680: opponents are just teammates that are just really bad at passing ☑ Sciguymjm#5935: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/450029177517637662/2018-05-26_16-14-37.mp4 chip#7643: I said a prayer to the wall-to-air-dribble gods

Skyborg#0894: Or just a poor silver who thinks saying he's diamond in the poll makes him better ccman32#4022: well, ~650h and gold/plat Skyborg#0894: 500 and never play, only high gold ccman32#4022: i dont really think this is a good skill indicator at all ccman32#4022: i've easily won against diamond players and also lost like 5:0 against gold 1, all in the same season ccman32#4022: its just so hard to actually rank up even when you became significantly better gyfis#8295: thanks that makes me feel better 😄 gyfis#8295: yeah it is hard to rank up.. gyfis#8295: I was thinking I could maybe touch diamond in standard in the season that's coming, but ... probably not
ccman32#4022: it also constantly feels like you need way more wins to rank up than loses to rank down ccman32#4022: i think its also teammates pulling you down when you play doubles or standard in comp ccman32#4022: i am already mvp in almost all matches i play and still almost dont rank up at all Sciguymjm#5935: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/450692611615883285/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: my solo standard looks like a plane crashing dtracers#9598: You were very close with standard Sciguymjm#5935: I did hit champ, but it doesnt track that fast Sciguymjm#5935: personally i dont really care. im already "ahead" of the curve at like 750 hrs so i have plenty of time to "make it up" Sciguymjm#5935: of course it really means nothing timewise dtracers#9598: I was ahead but then I started working on bots and got way behind dtracers#9598: Mostly bc I was spending less consecutive time practicing Sciguymjm#5935: once again https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/450704348750807070/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: who i play against in solo standard Sciguymjm#5935: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/450713308803366924/unknown.png ccman32#4022: unbelievable

Corby#3854: ```We tested Volleyball internally and it wasn't very fun. Imagine what volleyball would really be in this game: Players having to hit aerials over and over and over again. Every time a point is scored (when the ball hits the ground) the field resets, similar to when a goal is scored. Players at lower ranks may not be able to hit aerials consistently, and the constant stop in play would make for really slow rounds. All of this = why we went with Dropshot.``` https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeague/comments/8lb612/salty_shores_update_rocket_league_hits_the_beach/dze8ir2/ twobackfromtheend#1471: there is or was a volleyball mode in game that could be accessed with mods. saw Yemen play it on stream once.

Tangil#3830: dtracers just play-zoned rhynolite twobackfromtheend#1471: what a player. Sciguymjm#5935: anyone wana play? Sciguymjm#5935: could be later too Sciguymjm#5935: ~champ 1 level Tangil#3830: I'm bronze 1 div 1 let's play Sciguymjm#5935: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/470725812438695947/s7x59cg7tib11.png Skyborg#0894: They should implement a system to stop forfeits. If a player starts a forget and gets denied, he should get a 5 minute ban. Although this might make the player play for the other team Skyborg#0894: Or just quitt being that the ban is the same Tangil#3830: That image makes me feel personally harassed Tangil#3830: lol i played a total of 4 ranked matches during competitive season 7 jb#1663: @Tangil thats 4 too many jb#1663: @Sciguymjm my work lets us out early today if you want to hit up some ranked when I'm done jb#1663: i'm probably gonna finish tying in the match history to the player view to kill some time but if you're around later I'm down Sciguymjm#5935: ye, anytime before 9 most likely. just ping me
jb#1663: oh this isnt the saltie discord whoops jb#1663: yeah ill msg you Sciguymjm#5935: reeeeee Noodleguitar#9857: Anyone interested in a few games? Champ 1-2, or casual any rank. dtracers#9598: i would be but im at work :/ Noodleguitar#9857: They should just make 1 time zone for the world, I'm sure most of the world won't mind working in the dark 😃 dtracers#9598: yes dtracers#9598: make it my time zone Sciguymjm#5935: biggest score discrepancy i've seen this late in the game https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/474023243553177610/20180731211620_1.jpg Sciguymjm#5935: literal definition of a carry, they couldn't even clear it for 20 pts Sciguymjm#5935: it was terrible Edwin.#7531: I like how the one with 30 points is below the one with 20 Noodleguitar#9857: I hope Psyonix does an update to the point system before or during their XP patch. So many strategic actions are not recognized, and saves are sometimes not even counted. dtracers#9598: how do you count those? dtracers#9598: well let me tell you. you make bots so good that they can think of that and then we convince psyonix to use our strats
Noodleguitar#9857: Hehe. With multiple saves the game doesn't always detect all of them. And shots that would have bounced out are sometimes saves, but that's not a huge problem I think. dtracers#9598: I think to calculate shots they make the goal bigger than it actually is dtracers#9598: for speed dtracers#9598: we do that too Noodleguitar#9857: Ah yeah, makes sense Noodleguitar#9857: I don't think the way they calculate in-game stats are very advanced. A pass is probably whichever on the scoring team touched the ball second to last in the last x seconds. First touches are obvious. Aerials are a bit weird because wall shots also count as one, maybe they use altitude (y-axis iirc?) dtracers#9598: nah they probably just check to see if they are on the ground Dispatch#7263: It can't be ground because low altitude aerials don't always register as aerials Skyborg#0894: "low altitude aerial" a jump? XD Dispatch#7263: Lol well like a double dump and short boost or a cross field low altitude sailing twobackfromtheend#1471: I've made my own shot detection and honestly I don't think it's much better than psyonix's twobackfromtheend#1471: psyonix's detection algorithms leave a lot to be wanted, but trying to code a better one is much easier said than done alion02#1973: i imagine it to be trivial if one has access to ball prediction twobackfromtheend#1471: I do use ball prediction alion02#1973: hm
alion02#1973: so is there some hidden catch with simply simulating a couple of seconds ahead every time the ball is touched and checking if the ball is in the goal? alion02#1973: i mean dead-accurate ball prediction, something like chip's twobackfromtheend#1471: I do use chips ball prediction twobackfromtheend#1471: the catch is that a lot of those "just missed" shots are passes twobackfromtheend#1471: and you can't really do anything about those twobackfromtheend#1471: without knowledge of the players skill dtracers#9598: @زيد dtracers#9598: What is your question dtracers#9598: @زيد what advice would you like? I wouldn't consider myself super high level but I'm at least champ 1 ccman32#4022: wtf? ccman32#4022: thats like top 1-2% on the entire world Sciguymjm#5935: nah ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/475097726342660116/unknown.png Sciguymjm#5935: what playlist is that

Is there any other team, who wants to give it a try? :) Tangil#3830: WOOO You guys did really well last time, I'm sure you will do well this time too axelalex2#5793: if my PC can handle it, i would also stream ccman32#4022: does the game recently start randomly minimizing mid-game?! Tangil#3830: no lol ccman32#4022: jesus fuck this is annoying ccman32#4022: i'll just stop playing Tangil#3830: did you get bricktivated Tangil#3830: you said you were gonna quit rl last year
Tangil#3830: i think rl is bricktivated ccman32#4022: this is like my 3rd or 4th match since 2 months lol Tangil#3830: at this point i only open up rl because of rlbot Tangil#3830: i played a total of 4 matches in competitive season 7 alion02#1973: i've basically stopped doing everything ever since i started bot dev ✅ alion02#1973: except for asciidots Tangil#3830: but you started asciidots after bot dev alion02#1973: well yes Tangil#3830: i wonder if i would've stopped playing rocket league if i hadn't stumbled across rlbot Tangil#3830: or if i would play more rocket league dtracers#9598: I would be playing more Face#7765: who wants me to carry them to diamond in ones Face#7765: oh wait Face#7765: it's ones Mal#5601: me
Mal#5601: I count as 0 players, you can carry me Face#7765: Fair enough Face#7765: But really Face#7765: wanna dubs? Face#7765: I'm champ-ish but diamond 2 in dubs Face#7765: cuz rankdrops Face#7765: FeelsBadMan Mal#5601: I'm diam 2 but effort Face#7765: Let's do it then Face#7765: my steam is on my discord profile Mal#5601: Nah I'll play tomorrow if ya want, I am watching netflix, I am in lazy mode Face#7765: Netflix and actually chilling Face#7765: lol Mal#5601: hehehe Fondle#4785: I'm silver 3 and gold 3 on my alts
Fondle#4785: Champ 1 on main Skyborg#0894: I'm between those 2 ranks . . . On my main dgfgdfsgfds#0962: rip dgfgdfsgfds#0962: i'm champ 1 Fondle#4785: Cool we can queue sometime then ccman32#4022: lets play a match of solo standard and rage axelalex2#5793: have fun Fondle#4785: My friend is champ 1 in that playlist Fondle#4785: He is champ 1 in standard also ccman32#4022: what a wonder, i lost ccman32#4022: champ 1 in solo standard, are you kidding? Sciguymjm#5935: champ 1 in solos is around c3+ in standard Noodleguitar#9857: Anybody up to queue? ccman32#4022: god damn this was horrible ccman32#4022: only in solo standard you get 2 enemy goals in the first 10 seconds and then a 3rd one shortly later when your own teammate bumps you while defending leaving an open goal to the enemy
ccman32#4022: awesome 😃 ccman32#4022: gotta love watching this replay 😃 ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/477211371067408424/A2749F1E45FE392D94014C9D94742B48.replay Mal#5601: Lol me and one of my friends got bored ages ago and played comp without boost, if we used our boost, we would forfeit the game, I got an insane save where I bumped my friend and he hit the ball out just in time ccman32#4022: xD maxmin#4780: @Noodleguitar I was gonna say yes but your MMR is like 2.5x mine Noodleguitar#9857: @maxmin Ah right, we could do casual too sometime maxmin#4780: that'd be cool! axelalex2#5793: about 80% of the random teammates i had to play with today only happened to wear the same colors as i did dtracers#9598: For me it's 100% If I'm on the orange team my teammates are orange too. Same with blue team. 🤔 😬 Noodleguitar#9857: I ran into a random teammate in doubles a while ago claiming he was a GC. Before I could do anything wrong he started playing for the other team. Next game I got queued up with him again Noodleguitar#9857: At least I got to report him twice, so that was nice Mal#5601: lol
Mal#5601: I'll be honest, nobody (not even me) had any clue what was happening when I took this shot https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/477546740279410698/AccurateOddGhostshrimp-size_restricted.gif Mal#5601: Look at that minimal effort, I only used 14 boost xD Face#7765: 15* Face#7765: approximately 8% more than you thought you did Face#7765: lel Mal#5601: It's not my failt I can't read Mal#5601: fault* Face#7765: I'm memeing u fine Face#7765: It's one of those moments when you just know you don't gotta do anything to score it Face#7765: lel Mal#5601: I mean for me, that is every goal (in my mind), I play in the moment, so I just run off reactions, it's great when I score, cause even I have no clue what happened Mal#5601: It's great for the goals, but not great cause I have a crap reaction time Mal#5601: I have a reaction time of 3 months 2 days and 1 millisecond Mal#5601: Never higher, never lower axelalex2#5793: i never had a game with that much open fire https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/477834424453562369/2018-08-11-154201_3712x1440_scrot.png
Tangil#3830: Whew you carried Brom#0758: 25 shots, lmao. axelalex2#5793: got the feeling that i belong to C3, while i'm stuck in C2, because i outperform like 80% of my teammates Noodleguitar#9857: Solo queueing in doubles is rough, you never know what you get Brom#0758: Matchmaking isn't perfect. Brom#0758: I suppose. Tangil#3830: Understatement of the year Silh#0320: @axelalex2 I've sorta come to the belief that the rank that you are capable at playing at is slightly higher than the rank you are placed at, which is as some people have put it, "the rank you are able to carry up to". Silh#0320: (Which I don't exactly believe is a proper description, given the many different factors involved, but it sort of gets the idea across) Silh#0320: Though I'm sure someone with some proper statistical rigor could probably disprove me. 😛 Brom#0758: I'm here to disprove you. Brom#0758: Statistics show that 100% of Rocket League players are placed at least one tier below what their actual rank should be. GooseFairy#6680: yea i'm suppposed to be grand champ but for some reason all my teamates are like silver 2 GooseFairy#6680: can confirm Brom#0758: Statistics have actually also proven that is true for 100% of teammates.
Brom#0758: Independent of other factors, teammates are always placed between two to four tiers higher than they should be according to their skill level. Brom#0758: Also recent studies have shown that NASA has switched to Excel OS on all of their equipment. Silh#0320: @Brom Er, you're sorta supporting my argument instead 😛 Brom#0758: Exactly. Brom#0758: As I said, I was statistically improving your argument. Brom#0758: Totally what I said. axelalex2#5793: at the session i had earlier, i definitely played on grand champ level, not because of my mechanical skills, but because of my consistency; but again, teammates were so bad axelalex2#5793: there will come a session, where i will rank up rapidly up to C3, and then i hopefully i can stay there skoocda#6230: there are so many bayesian predictions needed in rocket league skoocda#6230: where is the kick off going? skoocda#6230: is my teammate going to steal the center boost I need? skoocda#6230: on a scale of whiff to clanger, how hard is that shot going to be? skoocda#6230: is my teammate also watching the universal open on twitch? should I assume they will miss when a goal is scored on stream? skoocda#6230: is my teammate drinking enough water? skoocda#6230: so many considerations!
axelalex2#5793: i swear, all my teammates are pot smoking and drunk monkeys xD Noodleguitar#9857: I had a champion 2 go AFK on me after I stole a goal from him 😃 And we were ahead in score Mal#5601: I mean, you hurt his feelings, he was probably crying and you didn't care Noodleguitar#9857: Might be my new record: 146 km/h goal Mal#5601: My record is 3 days Sciguymjm#5935: i encountered 3 separate solo smurf accounts today Sciguymjm#5935: low hours, or private profiles. what gives Tangil#3830: they're out to get you Mal#5601: lol Sciguymjm#5935: made it back to champ anyway, despite the smurfs GooseFairy#6680: I played a few matches online yesterday GooseFairy#6680: It's weird going from playing bots to playing humans lol Yannoux#6969: also there is a new website interesting if you want to analyze your replays better https://ballchasing.com/ dtracers#9598: or you can go to saltie.tk
dtracers#9598: 😛 dtracers#9598: http://saltie.tk/ dtracers#9598: (still a work in progress) dtracers#9598: actually @Yannoux would you be interested in helping us? We are wanting to use models to generate some of our stats Yannoux#6969: i will but you shall wait after the 23rd is passed Yannoux#6969: i *may* * Yannoux#6969: 😏 Yannoux#6969: i could only recomand you to train a critic from actor critic with replays separated from policy Yannoux#6969: maybe ? Yannoux#6969: can't help it but want a headless rocketleague working before anything else dtracers#9598: Almost all of it would be a form of supervised learning. dtracers#9598: for example dtracers#9598: we train a model to look at shots and see if they scored dtracers#9598: then we look at your replay and see if there were cases where you could have taken a shot but did not
dtracers#9598: and if you should have taken a shot then Yannoux#6969: it depends mainly on points of view. if you are way back in your camp when your team is getting aggressive then you are not helping => BAD, maybe Yannoux#6969: it does not depend on the ball being somewhere and the player being elsewhere... Yannoux#6969: in fact maybe scoring each player in replays to learn could be an idea Yannoux#6969: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Sciguymjm#5935: but there's an objective way to tell based on previous data. if someone took a shot there and it was successful, then you should have too Sciguymjm#5935: etc.. dtracers#9598: and you do it over enough data and you have trends that a model can learn Yannoux#6969: just grade every cars in every replays you have dtracers#9598: i mean that is the plan Yannoux#6969: 👍 dtracers#9598: I will ask again after the 23rd if you are interested in helping us 😃 Skyborg#0894: @tarehart how did the games went? tarehart#6423: Not bad, I kept them alive until the real player showed up tarehart#6423: They didn't win the tougher matches unfortunately
Skyborg#0894: Oh, you were replacing a guy? axelalex2#5793: RLBotters getting the Tactics down https://gfycat.com/EagerBlackHeron GooseFairy#6680: omg GooseFairy#6680: next level strats put into action Tangil#3830: Haha nice Tangil#3830: Ez 1st place RLRS Edwin.#7531: @axelalex2 how did the rlbotters do? Brom#0758: @Edwin. we're still just practicing, the qualifiers we registered for are later this month. axelalex2#5793: https://smash.gg/tournament/rlcs-season-6-eu/events/eu-open-qualifier-3/brackets/368921/708973 5 PM UTC+02:00 Skyborg#0894: GO RLBOTTERS! Tangil#3830: WOO Tangil#3830: will there be a stream? GooseFairy#6680: Is that today??
axelalex2#5793: no stream, unfortunately; i tried yesterday, but then my ping swings between 40 and 80 every 3 seconds, which is annoying to play with axelalex2#5793: but we try to save every replay and upload them to ballchasing.com then Tangil#3830: nice Tangil#3830: you guys are gonna rock dtracers#9598: Good luck dtracers#9598: If only we had an auto uploader so you didn't have to work to save right @Tangil ;) :p Tangil#3830: yes if only Tangil#3830: im not in charge of uploading to the server btw Tangil#3830: that's sci's job dtracers#9598: @Sciguymjm I'm pretty sure crafted the end point already axelalex2#5793: 1st opponent DQed Edwin.#7531: ggez Tangil#3830: haha nice dtracers#9598: That happened to us so many times
axelalex2#5793: Aces still not here :/ we really got lucky the first round, that they didn't show up, but second opponent is ready axelalex2#5793: got DQed from the 2nd game GooseFairy#6680: rip dtracers#9598: Dang :( dtracers#9598: Sorry to hear that Tangil#3830: \:( axelalex2#5793: Aces seems to be a workaholic axelalex2#5793: means, we are out axelalex2#5793: 2-2 in games, 0-0 in goals dtracers#9598: Dang sorry if y'all need a backup next time you could grab @Edwin. dtracers#9598: He's pretty good! Brom#0758: Having a backup probably would have been a good idea in retrospect 😛 Edwin.#7531: I already found it weird that only 2 ppl were in call lol axelalex2#5793: yeah, but we cannot register a backup for the upcoming qualifier axelalex2#5793: next season we could give it a try
Edwin.#7531: rip dtracers#9598: https://www.rocketleague.com/news/progression-update-august-29/ dtracers#9598: Rlbot club? axelalex2#5793: question is, if we can join multiple clubs dtracers#9598: Oh this club would be bots only no humans dtracers#9598: If you can't be in multiple that will be difficult for me to choose axelalex2#5793: so bot creators you mean? dtracers#9598: No. I mean we will make steam accounts for the best bots and put them into a club. Skyborg#0894: You would have to buy the game for those accounts Sciguymjm#5935: totally worth dtracers#9598: np we can crowd fund. In fact forget that offline only rule our bots will top the ranks but it will be obvious they are bots bc they will be in the cool kids bots club! ;0 Skyborg#0894: If psyonix allowed us to do that with the top 3-6 of bots it would be awesome 😂😂 PuppyAuction#5291: Would be great if Psyonix made an official 'bot' ranked playlist and had some official API. First game to fully embrace bot competition.
PuppyAuction#5291: Would turn into a continual kaggle competion basically dtracers#9598: Blizzard already had one dtracers#9598: With Star craft dtracers#9598: But I don't think they are for the she purpose. There are already better than human Star craft bots PuppyAuction#5291: did starcraft have a ranked bot playlist? dtracers#9598: Hmm no dtracers#9598: Not for playing against Aalex#0832: > If only we had an auto uploader so you didn't have to work to save right @Tangil ;) What is this? I saw you mention saltie.tk and I presume you're data hoarding, so what is this auto uploader? Aalex#0832: @dtracers Sciguymjm#5935: We may or may not be creating a replay analysis and aggregate data site for Rocket League Sciguymjm#5935: The auto uploader is part of that (hooks into the game and sends the replays to the site) Aalex#0832: If you have an auto uploader that works and does things silently, I would like to leave that running every time I play Sciguymjm#5935: It works currently, but the site isn't in open beta yet Sciguymjm#5935: If you're interested in helping test: https://discord.gg/aCHWD3E
dtracers#9598: You can only join one club dtracers#9598: But it is not associated with rank dtracers#9598: Do it is now just going to be a visual thing it looks like Aalex#0832: Is that message meant for me? dtracers#9598: Which one? skoocda#6230: @anyone wanna play some RL? Sciguymjm#5935: ask me another day 👌 skoocda#6230: !remindme 4 hours ask sciguymjm to play rocket soccer dtracers#9598: I have woken up from my second nap I can play skoocda#6230: nice! dtracers#9598: What rank are you again? skoocda#6230: champ 1 in 2s rn skoocda#6230: champ 3 in 3s dtracers#9598: Cool same skoocda#6230: nice

Luckily, if we lose, we go into Losers Round 2, not Losers Round 1 Sciguymjm#5935: That's a fake G2 right? They're not EU and wouldn't be playing quals anyway. But why is that allowed? dtracers#9598: maybe this is what verified clubs are for Brom#0758: Plus the bracket is actually group G2. Brom#0758: Lmao.

Brom#0758: Should have named us RLBot Esports. Brom#0758: Then they'd all be trembling in fear. dtracers#9598: ya should have Brom#0758: Projected outcomes say we get kicked out in Losers 4. Brom#0758: Oh wait. Brom#0758: This is complete bullshit. Brom#0758: Projected outcomes has all the upper teams winning every time.

Edwin.#7531: nah im not Edwin.#7531: im bored, cannot do that much regarding state setting since ccman didnt push axelalex2#5793: 0-1, 1-5 Tangil#3830: aw Tangil#3830: you are going to win the next one Tangil#3830: 🎉 twobackfromtheend#1471: aww axelalex2#5793: and we are out axelalex2#5793: 2-2 again axelalex2#5793: only scored 2 goals, got scored on 13 times in total Tangil#3830: rip Tangil#3830: good run though axelalex2#5793: not really. every win we got was a DQ

dtracers#9598: did you submit a bug feedback? kosta#2804: I will do haha kosta#2804: Where can i do that? dtracers#9598: on their discor dtracers#9598: i can do it for you if you want dtracers#9598: or on reddit kosta#2804: i will do GooseFairy#6680: https://gyazo.com/16f3edb911695559c72a61ecad2d461a GooseFairy#6680: looks like a bug with matchmaking lol GooseFairy#6680: 3 v 4 and we got stuck with a bot jeroen11dijk#1178: yeah, my brother played an 1v3 earlier jeroen11dijk#1178: RL is broken GooseFairy#6680: rip jeroen11dijk#1178: Rocket league updates are always followed with shit bugs jeroen11dijk#1178: last time we couldnt see our current division
jeroen11dijk#1178: and now all teh physics are broken GooseFairy#6680: I haven't noticed any physics issues GooseFairy#6680: it looks like players are really getting mixed up tho GooseFairy#6680: all the profile pics are shuffled lol GooseFairy#6680: and it just crashed after a game finished jeroen11dijk#1178: https://www.reddit.com/r/RocketLeague/comments/9bbzcr/open_letter_psyonix_if_you_want_to_keep_growing/?utm_content=title&utm_medium=hot&utm_source=reddit&utm_name=RocketLeague jeroen11dijk#1178: this really sums it up jeroen11dijk#1178: I love Rocket League but somehow everything breaks every update jeroen11dijk#1178: and the new features never get any support axelalex2#5793: I have the feeling, that Psyonix needs the crates and the upcoming Rocket Pass to push eSports further. Unfortunately, they have a shit QA (like everybody says). If they want to have further money from me, they should implement an ingame-market, where i can buy all types of items for a fixed price. Opening crates depends on way too much luck, and for trading, there are so many retards out there, who overprice their items way too much. Brom#0758: Psyonix should just look at LoL and do exactly the same things. Brom#0758: Lmao. Sciguymjm#5935: What, break the balance in every patch? dtracers#9598: It sounded like their QA are just not people able to do mechanics like dribbles or stalls dtracers#9598: And honestly you probably make more as a pro than QA

Edwin.#7531: Someone wanna play? ccman32#4022: why do you rank down when teammates leave in ranked just when you are 1 goal behind and then you lose a 2v3 or even 1v3?! Edwin.#7531: Cuz THIS is Rocket League
Eastvillage#2628: rule 1: never ff! Tangil#3830: no, rule 1 is never break a head to head Eastvillage#2628: I did that today ... 😦 Eastvillage#2628: But I also had a 30 seconds stare contest with something, both of us just waiting for the other to move towards to ball and get out of position Tangil#3830: wow almost like that mindgaming in the speedbots tournament Tangil#3830: bots are mindgame 4d chess masters confirmed ccman32#4022: did the ranking change somehow? ccman32#4022: i lost 1 match got from div3 to 2 ccman32#4022: now i won 3 and am still in div 2 Edwin.#7531: Install bakkesmod to see if your MMR changed ccman32#4022: why would i need bakkesmod to check such a basic thing ccman32#4022: is there no other way? dtracers#9598: there are tons of ways dtracers#9598: https://rocketleague.tracker.network/ dtracers#9598: here is one way
Edwin.#7531: But bakkesmod shows it ingame, which can be easier sometimes ccman32#4022: did this actually just happen ccman32#4022: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/373900457845850112/485563553894498356/20180901233534_1.jpg ccman32#4022: lol GooseFairy#6680: gj Mal#5601: You know you are playing top tier rocket league when at the end of a match, you have put the first 20 or so lines of the bee movie script in chat and are spinning on the back of your car Mal#5601: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/478320448413761539/485569196042747934/unknown.png jeroen11dijk#1178: people wanna play some unranked?

Brom#0758: Wait what? Brom#0758: I suddenly jumped up to level 210. dtracers#9598: Yes they fixed levels Brom#0758: Ahhh. Brom#0758: Did they remove the soft conversion cap then? Brom#0758: And what's the Elite Challenger title granted for? jeroen11dijk#1178: yeah they did but people are still complaining since it looks like the new cap is just random jeroen11dijk#1178: level 200 I think but dont quote me on it Brom#0758: Hmm, could be, if that's not including post-conversion xp. Tangil#3830: @r0bbi3 to half flip just bind a button to air roll left or air roll right, then backflip and immediately hold up while pressing air roll left/right r0bbi3#0269: @Tangil do you actually have to bind that button, or can i just hold the regular air roll? Tangil#3830: binding it makes it very easy Tangil#3830: otherwise you'd have to do some thumbstick trickery Skyborg#0894: if you do it correctly, just holding up should flip you upside Mal#5601: I mean @Tangil I just use thumbstick trickery, I find it easier
