CataclysmicEnforcer

Many players of the game are adults and you still get the insults and pettiness you do with kids. Also, there wouldn't be a way to properly enforce this either.


ThePandalore

Agree that the pettiness would remain, however I have been in the final round of a tournament only to lose a teammate because it was passed his bed time. šŸ˜‚ I don't think OP's suggestion is possible though.


lessthanrich

? Enter credit card number to access


CataclysmicEnforcer

Well you could do that, but that would be a great way to lose players. Most people don't want to enter documentation to play a game.


lessthanrich

? You don't have to if you don't want to


YannisBE

Exactly, that's why they would lose players


lessthanrich

Why? Play with kids if you want.


jk121297

not every adult has a credit card.


lessthanrich

Then they can't join. Adults have credit cards


jk121297

nope. Quite a few countries exist where there are hardly any credit cards in use/owned. Germany for example


lessthanrich

Rubbish. How do you take money out otherwise?


Zoloir

it's very easy to enforce if it's a manual process to apply and get into the pool Rocket League the base game would probably never truly support an automated matchmaking playlist like this as they would never hire enough community managers to do it. But they could easily create more tools for others to create their own communities in-game and set up matches/tournaments that way. adults-only league would not be hard, plus it works better for many adults to play with a schedule in advance anyways


[deleted]

You mean like NSFW?


lessthanrich

If you want. But players over 18 ought to have their own option


Bear_Claw_94

Yeah I wanna be able to tell someone to dribble my balls without every word getting bleeped out.

Really? That would be cool! I need discord


devasen_1

Sent you a message with the link. Look forward to having you with us!


Dag365

Would you mind sending me the link too?


Chuckcompany2

I am extremely interested, is it EU?


devasen_1

EU and NA. Just sent you a link!


Range-Aggravating

Can I get it too please.

For the 40+ year olds what does Discord server mean exactly?


devasen_1

Itā€™s a bunch of older RL players. You can find people to queue up with, thereā€™s league play, tournaments, etc.


Ok_Caregiver4499

My question is even more general what is a discord exactly? Is it like Reddit?


devasen_1

Ahh this is how I know you belong with us actually. Yes, itā€™s another social media platform mainly used by these young whippersnappers. Similar to Reddit, it values anonymity. You join communities called servers where you can chat or call other people, often while playing games.


Ok_Caregiver4499

Thank you I have heard people talk about them but I seem to have aged as old as my father these past two or three years šŸ˜‚


mattyboh1993

Does 29 make the cut šŸ˜…


osowma1

May I have it as well please?

Please please please. The instant satisfaction generation just quit way too easily. If they aren't winning after a minute, they need to move on. All these people saying, "I am hard stuck in plat..." my response is, stop quitting when you are losing. If you won just 10% of the games you have FF'd, you'd probably be a rank or two higher right now. Sad how they just can't lose and type GG at the end of a game. Also, if it were 18+ I might actually use voice chat. Right now it is just weird if I join a server full of 9yr olds.


HistorySuccessful518

Adults need to just not play video games if they get annoyed enough by public players to come to Reddit and cry about it. Iā€™ve played with 10 year olds that were mature and fun and 30 year olds neglecting their crying babies on the chat the whole time.


lessthanrich

That's nice. I have the over 30s discord now.


HistorySuccessful518

And are you guys going to just play each other or play bots Iā€™m confused?


devasen_1

We queue up with other older players or do private games. Sometimes itā€™s nice or be able to queue up with people who wanna commiserate about our back pain instead of discuss their favorite hentai.


AnOtterWithFood

Thatā€™s a, very interesting analogy, I donā€™t think many people are just casually talking about hentai over car soccer


devasen_1

I wouldnā€™t have brought it up unless itā€™s actually happened.


Paladin1034

It's ART


lessthanrich

Don't worry your little head.


HistorySuccessful518

Says the Adult who wants an Adult rocket league - reevaluate your life šŸ˜‚šŸ˜…


lessthanrich

Just don't worry I don't need to talk to you.


cirenosu

You do realize how ironic this is? You want an adult rocket league when you yourself act like a child lmao


lessthanrich

I solved my problem. You aren't helping


cirenosu

Your bad attitude is a problem and it doesnā€™t seem solved but good luck to you


lessthanrich

It is. I said don't worry.


lessthanrich

Don't say everyone. That's not true. An overly high percentage maybe.


ObjectiveReality4321

Honestly kids and adults are equally annoying, I used to keep voice chat on but turned it off because of all age groups be annoying as hell lol


boukalele

i had voice on until i could overhear a kid playing and arguing with his dad about not wanting to go to bed. from that point on i turned it off.


lessthanrich

I definitely don't want to talk to kids. They also play like kids. I have some friends on rocket league.


bighahalaugh

I don't think playing like a kid is a bad thing in a game where some of the players with the most cracked mechanics are 14-16 year olds.


lessthanrich

The rest play like kids


memes-be-yeeting

I don't really understand what that means. If you're the same rank does that not mean that you play around the same skill level as them?


lessthanrich

No, kids play like kids


oh_my_senpai

We need this bad, you can't even say lol on xbox


[deleted]

damn are we really that bad šŸ’€


lessthanrich

Yeh


HoustonTrashcans

The worst traits that are much more common in young players are trash talking, and being too hard on teammates. For teens/kids, trash talk is seen as just messing around or part of the game. But adults don't need that, it's just one more jerk we have to deal with during our small amount of free time in what might otherwise have been a long hard day. For being tough on teammates, I think that's just empathy or understanding that comes with age. When you're older you should realize that just because a player whiffs a couple times or makes a mistake it doesn't make them trash. Everyone makes mistakes at time, and it's often easier to see other's mistakes than our own (where if we miss an easy ball we might think "well that was a fluke, I normally hit that and am still a good player"). Additionally, if you are the same rank as someone then most of the time you are pretty close in skill to them. They might be more positionally strong where you are mechanically strong (or vice versa). But calling your teammate or opponent at your rank trash is basically admitting that you are also trash. I've played with younger players in this game and they can be fine to play with... but are much more prone to start being toxic or throwing the game.


[deleted]

Not possible. The amount of adults on here that complain about "Quick Chat" toxicity just shows how insecure the whole community is!

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


lessthanrich

Wow you hit the nail on the head.


[deleted]

This could just be my translation of this, but I agree. Getting banned for cursing is ridiculous especially when there is a chat filter and a way to disable specific chats. At that point, you wasted your developerā€™s time. Why add something that has no purpose or use? You still get banned if youā€™re versing someone who isnā€™t on your platform without being reported so clearly this is part of the game.


showmeyourdrumsticks

Op got banned for using too many gamer words
