It's one of the finest sports games I've ever played .Exciting, tense and dramatic. Incredible game,love it.

I think it's safe to say, this will be one of my most played games at the end of the Switch's life.

@OorWullie
Couldn’t agree more! Playing it nonstop from release date. Also, music is amazing, especially first track when you start game. One of the best games you can get for Switch IMO.

Hello my fellow Switch players.
I have a question. I'm from Poland, and with my country set as a region in eShop, I can't buy rocket league.
If i will buy it for example with USA region, will it still normal play, without any problems?
Also buying from USA (or other) region only with code for credits, right?

@sawo I bought games from South Africa, Russia, UK, etc without any problems. Just go on your Nintendo Account website and change region to whatever you want. Next time you open eShop it will say you changed region and you must enter your password again. After buying a game just switch back to your region and you should be fine. I use VISA for all purchases and just required amount if that answers your questions.

I thought this thread would be more popular. It's obviously sold really well as it's not budged from 1st place in the UK /US Eshop's. I don't think any game has held onto the number 1 spot so long. Going by those 2 charts I assume the 2 biggest selling Eshop games so far are Rocket League and Stardew Valley. SV might still be ahead of RL in overall sales though as it's been out longer.

Anyway, how's every one getting on with it. I've put 55 hours in so far, I can't get enough of it. I play it handheld, i play it in tabletop with my pro and I also play it docked when I can. Having these 3 options adds to the experience even more. There is a noticeable upgrade in graphics in docked mode so it's always a treat to have a good session in the big screen.

If anyone fancies a few games, give me a shout . I'm just an average player but I'm getting better. Some 2v2 or 3v3 would be great too.

this game is addictive as hell, not sure why theres not more replies ! can see myself playing this for a long time as its literally pick up and play ! not so good either but managing to score a few goals so could be worse !!

@OorWullie @burger_king I would assume it's because there isn't "really" that much to discuss. I've played the game non-stop since launch, and it's as much fun as I expected it to be. But the game is pretty straightforward, it doesn't really lend itself for you know a 10 minute discussion.

true but you could say the same about a lot of games such as splatoon which is also pretty straight forward =)

You're correct but Splatoon 2 doesn't have an active thread either haha. Likewise Splatoon 2 has a deeper customization aspect, so you could in theory talk about good "kit combinations" for ranked etc.

Splatoon 2 is a different beast.. getting new weapons, stages, splatfest etc.. people have much to discuss.. definitely more then rocket league.
I was playing RL nonstop until Xenoblade Chronicles 2 came out. Rocket League still rocks and I play every day few matches but Xenoblade is getting all attention atm.

One thing I just found out the other day,non Switch players don't see our Nintendo cars or avatars and vice versa, we don't see their Gears of War /Halo cars etc. I did wonder why non-Nintendo avatars just had PSY on them and assumed that must be the case but I didn't think that would apply to our cars too. They are replaced with a standard RL car and paint job. Hopefully Psyonix can work something out.

I read somewhere that cross play with friends won't just be limited to private matches soon.There will be the option to team up with your Xbox/PC friend and take on randoms. That will be superb if true. Me and my mate have been having a great time playing each other but would be so much better if we weren't limited to 1v1.Adding bots just isn't the same.

Sweet! More good games for the Switch!

It's a very good game, very challenging, i like it very much and play it since launch almost every day, I started silver and ended up in bronze 1, division 1, managed to almost go to silver, but had a really bad streak and it s very hard now to advance from bronze 1 division 1 because there are allot of players that are leaving the games or hitting the forfeit button after 1 received goal...I'm not expert but I managed to get pro very fast and I really like this game, football games, I'm not mad or something and really enjoying the game but I would really like to have teammates that want to score and win, not just drive a car with boost on a football field !
Nice to meet you guys, I will leave here my friend code, if you like the game and wanna play with me, add me as a friend and see you in game ! SW-2316-7182-5429
And I really don't like the thing that we are not able to see other players cars, if they are not playing on the same platform, I really don't understand why and with this little things you can ruin the other good things that the games has to offer !
And please let us play party with other platforms, we have friends on different platforms and we would like to play with them !
Thanks and keep up the good work, it is really good !

Just picked Rocket League for Switch up as an early Christmas present for me and my young son to enjoy. Neither of us have any previous experience with this game so any tips or invites to play would be much appreciated.

Anyone finding RL “laggier” lately? It’s not as smooth play as it was on release. Or am I imagining things? I guess it’s not hardware thing because it was optimased for Switch but maybe Nintendo server provlems because too many people have it on their Switches now..

I feel like it has experienced more problems as of late, but then again I play a lot during the evening. This is where I've experienced the most lag since release anyways.

Not noticed any lag during gameplay,but when left open the Eshop is laggy. I thought that happened after the Eshop received maintenance right before RL released but I read somewhere that it's caused by this game. Panic Button are supposedly looking into it.

Yep, just came here to post that. We got the update we hoped for. Taking Switch down to my mates just now to try and get him into the game so he can buy it for Xbox and play me. First I'll be checking for any improvements.

One thing this update takes an extra 2.3gb.

Make that 3.4gb, needs even more to install it.

After messing around with it for a bit, I can definitely say the optimization worked. The maps look and feel cleaner to play on (most noticeably in docked). Wasteland in particular looks miles above what it used to looks like in terms of texturing, utopia also has way was less jagged edges. In handheld farmstead looks almost indentical to how the docked version looked before the update. So that bodes well for future updates to the maps, and maybe a full 720P undocked increase as well.
