I still haven't received my Chopper EG wheels, despite logging into all linked accounts multiple times. I have everything else, and I don't particularly like the wheels, Just thought I'd put that out there.

What will this mean in terms of ranked 1s distribution?

(Skip this paragraph Corey) For those wondering, the MMR value that Corey is referring to is not the same value as the MMR you currently know and use. The value you use is currently called "Skill Rating". The actual MMR value is much smaller. So the "oldMMR" of 75 is actually around 1600 Skill Rating now (100 rating above GC).

For Corey: Is the "Target MMR" prioritized to be around Gold 3 for each playlist? Or in Extra Modes is it planned for something higher than Gold 3 due to the sheer lack of MMR inflation that wouldn't be offset enough by it?

I agree about the relying on it for maneuvers. I actually use it for slowing my momentum that much more when not boosting to get a softer touch on the ball to air dribble or to immediately flip reset after. It's also quite useful to descend faster with no boost and needing to recover. It can also be used in tandem with the Musty Flick/Breezi Flick to change the position ever so slightly.

I don't think it should be removed. But if you do decide to disable it for being bound to the same key, maybe implement an option to allow the behavior through, depending on how complex it is to do so.

How will the soft reset work exactly? Is it similar to Season 4's where it was quite aggressive at pulling people back (Champion --> Platiunum) or is it closer to our current soft reset of only those above C3 Div 1 gets pulled down to C3 Div 1?

 

 

Edit: With the information Corey gave below, I estimated how the soft reset/squish will work for the 3v3 playlist. Don't assume that it is the same for other playlists though.

NewMMR = TargetMMR + (OldMMR - MedianMMR) * SquishFactor

But braking mid air slows you down slightly, doesn't it? Was that just an oversight? Doesn't seem like something that'd fit as a default bind.

Doesn't L2 actually slightly slow you down in the air though? (According to this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoOWKG3xv7U&feature=youtu.be&t=118) so you'll be affecting your air speed by having brake and air roll on the same button

These look to be some solid improvements! Why change L2/LT default to air roll though? L1/LB seems to be way more common among the player base.

Are these redeemable tourney items tradable? I really hope not, because the incentive for people to just make free smurf accounts to farm these items and later trade them to their mains would be pretty high.

Will disconnecting carry the penalty of a ban? Those are hefty penalties to incur and 1 night of bad internet could ruin it for people if that’s the case

Will the tournament items and credits be tradable at all? And will this update drop 31st August?

Originally posted by copycatcabra

As a primarily solo queued player, I feel I'm going to find myself doing these instead of ranked. This just seems so much more fun and less stress knowing I can sign up knowing when a tournament is (play on my schedule!) and there are tangible rewards for doing so.

If you lose? Join the next one, and not have the stress of watching your rank drop.

Is there any plans for a similar feature on EGS?

Basically the same question as u/Wubdor: I currently have an Epic account. Now, if I were to create a proxy account at first instead of using my full Epic account, would it still be possible to upgrade/link this proxy to my Epic account at a later point or would the proxy “generate” a new one?

I've been answering other people's questions to save you some time, in the hopes that you will be able to find the time to answer my questions.

It is my understanding that when this update happens, I will be forced to either link my Steam account to an existing Epic Games Account, or have an automatic Epic Games Proxy Account linked to my Steam account

My questions are concerning this sentence:

You will be able to unlink your platform [...] you will not be able to link that platform to a different Epic Games Account.

First question:

Can I then simply unlink my Steam account from my Epic Games Account and use Rocket League on Steam without being linked?

Second question:

What happens if I just delete my Epic Games Account while my Steam account is linked?

If I delete my Epic Games Account, will I then never be...

u/Psyonix_Corey what about blueprints and golden eggs themselves? Will they be tradeable on any platform we link it to?

Hey Corey! Appreciate the response.
Have a couple of follow up questions if you don't mind.

A) My brother and I share the same console, he paid for the game and since it is his primary I have never needed to. Will I still get legacy items since my account was created before, or will I become 'F2P' and need to buy 500 credits to trade again?

B) Will Bakkesmod still work if I buy the game after the epic launcher transition on a PC once I build it? Or will the epic launcher no longer support bakkes/alpha mod?

Thanks!

This comment, the purpose of which is to assure r-funnyman that he will get Est. 2016, has given people the false impression that you are saying he will ONLY get Est. 2016.

Please confirm that what you meant was:

His Steam account will get Est. 2016, and his Switch account will get Est. 2018 (or whatever), and both will be available in his Shared Inventory?

To me, it is clear that this is what you meant, but some people are reading what you said and telling other people they ONLY get one.

/u/Psyonix_Corey I have square deadzone enabled in Steam settings, do you think Steam controller settings will still be supported when this update is live?
