Topic: Rocket League (Switch)

Lol at todays april fools on Rocket League. They made all but a couple of toppers extra large. I thought I had a glitch and used the redownload option. What a way to waste some time huh.

I hope it’s just an April’s fool joke because all my presets looks ridiculous! Today is 2.4. and they are still huge and ugly! They should change them to normal asap

@CroRock there back to normal now. And I think some were ugly oversized espcially the animated toppers, but others looked ok.

The big update with performance/visual improvements and tournaments is available now. It's quite a big one, it's taking me 20 minutes to download.

Just played a match there, the graphics in performance mode are so much better. Haven't tried visual mode yet. The tournament mode is amazing.This update is an enormous addition to the game.

@OorWullie Can you set-up a Tournament and invite some of us lot to take part? I'd like to see how all this works.

@Lroy I've got to nip out for 15 minutes, I can set a tournament to start at say 10pm? Not sure about invites. To do 2v2 or more for tournament need to be in a party. I'll have a look now. I'll get back to you.

@Lroy OK I've created a tournament to start in 40 minutes. 8 bracket Tournament. I need to go just now. Maybe some others will join.

Name of tournament is NL Cup and password is 1234

@OorWullie I joined it.

Also, Performance or Quality? I keep going back and forth to see what I like.

@OorWullie The Mrs. is using her work laptop again and it always bricks my router. So can guarantee how long I'll be connected this evening. Just been kicked from a 2 v 2 game. So bloody frustrating. Can only assume the wireless drivers/software on her work laptop are somehow messing up the router?!

EDIT: Found the tournament and have subscribed.

@OorWullie Might be worth advertising this in the Adult Switch Gamers thread to get more folk to join?

@DTMOF84 I've been playing performance, it looks so much better than it did before, especially handheld mode. I tried quality once and while it looks great the drop in frames was very noticeable I thought. Messed up my movement I thought. Cheers for joining, hopefully a few more will too.

@Lroy Yep, I'll do that.

@OorWullie I can't find your tournament. Any tips?

Edit: scratch that, it's a private one. Found it.

Search private tournaments - Name is NL Cup. Password is 1234

@Lroy

More games need this choice, I played a bit when the update went live and the performance mode is very good. Now if only games like Kirby Star Allies had this option.

@OorWullie good game. Held me at two goals. Look forward to some more.

Often I get a message pop up, saying I have been invited to a party. Unless I join that instant, I can't seem to find how to then locate the invitation and join at my earliest convenience.

Can anyone explain how I find where my invites are? Surely you don't have to stop, instantly join straight away. Often in an online match when the invite pops up.

Does anyone know what link Nintendo account to Twitch do? I mean whenever I select it it says: "authentication has failed with the Nintendo Switch Online Service servers". Could that mean Nintendos Online Service is releasing sooner than we thought?

@Alber-san I read about it on another site. It's a mystery at the moment but it seems to point to Fan Rewards which means you can win special gear by watching Twitch streams.If you make an account with Twitch it only gives you the option to link PS4 /One or Steam as your preferred platform. The option is obviously coming soon though that they've added it.
