Do people still play this on PS4? And can someone who never played this still get in the game(IE not get demolished regularly)?

  • League Rankings will be temporarily empty until players complete their placement matches

GENERAL
  • Extra Modes (Dropshot, Hoops, Rumble, and Snow Day) are now available in Free Play
    • Extra Modes are only available on certain Arenas as labeled in the Free Play Arena selection window
  • You can now see how many Weekly Wins you have left on the experience screen at the end of a match

  • Game Stat Display Level: You can now control which in-game stat notifications you see during a match via the Options > Gameplay menu
    • No Stats: You will not receive any notification during matches

    • Main Stats Only: notifications for the following will appear:
      • Assist

      • Epic Save

      • Goal

      • Save

      • Shot

      • Demolition
    • 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
BUG FIXES
