    • All Stats: All in-game notifications are displayed
  • "Input Buffer" option added to the Gameplay Options menu
    • This setting controls which method the game uses to send your gameplay inputs to our servers. These methods are:
      • Legacy - The default option used since Rocket League launched.
      • STS (Sim Time Scaling) - This allows the game server to instruct your client to very subtly speed up or slow down in order to maintain a smooth input stream.
      • CSTS (Continuous Sim Time Scaling) - A more aggressive version of STS that uses a continuous feedback loop to determine game speed.
    • Both STS and CSTS are newer strategies for latency mitigation that may be more effective for players with connectivity issues, spotty Wi-Fi, etc. than the Legacy method
    • If you experience connectivity issues during a match, you should try switching from Legacy to STS or CSTS. If you see no improvement, change back to Legacy

Fortnite creator Epic Games announced today that it’s acquired the independent game development studio Psyonix, makers of the massively popular vehicular soccer game Rocket League.

As a result of the deal, Psyonix says it will have access to more resources to support Rocket League’s competitive e-sports league and, by late 2019, will bring the game to Epic’s PC storefront. After that, Rocket League will no longer be available on Valve’s competing Steam store. Terms of the deal, including how much money Epic paid to acquire Psyonix, were not made public.

“The PC version of Rocket League will come to the Epic Games store in late 2019. In the meantime, it will continue to be available for purchase on Steam; thereafter it will continue to be supported on Steam for all existing purchasers.”

Just looking for people i can mess around and play casual with. I was Champ 2 this season, but have stepped away from competitive a bit as i grip too hard and can't afford to keep replacing controllers from breaking thumb sticks. So now i just mess around in casual, but i would love to get into competitive Snow Day and get Grand Champ rewards if anyone here plays it. Anyways, i'm always down to play. I'm EU servers, and play on PC.
 
Do you still organize tournaments? I just found out about this one and would be interested in participating, but I’m a bit late. Truthfully, I recently started playing this game and searching for someone with whom I can play and chat. I also would be interested in participating in tournaments for beginners or even intermediate levels. Surprisingly, my friends are not so much into this game, but I find it so addictive. Besides, I recently found out about rocket league trading. You can purchase some stuff with real money, but I prefer to use my experience points instead.
