EDIT: Now a general Rocket League thread

[Yudowat]

Yeah, that's what I thought. It's not too inherently serious a competition, though, so we could just throw everyone together regardless of playstyle for insane hijinks?

Yeah, it's not that serious, but it would still be much easier to organise if we did 1v1s. I'd be fine with 2v2 though if it ends up working better

 

[LittleFlame]

I say we do 2v2's and everyone that signs up just calls their playstyle

 

[Armadillo]

1v1 is easier, much easier to pair people up while taking latency into account. Not too bothered either way. Not sure what there is to call in 2s anyway. You should be playing with a proper rotation whether it's 2s or 3s. None of this "sit in the goal the whole game" nonsense .

Other thing with 2s is balance. It's just for fun, but you still want the teams to be fairly balanced if possible. It won't be fun for anyone if there are massive skill imbalances between teams. So that will have to be sorted as well.

I'm fine with either though, 1s is just easier to organise.

Can I still enter? I'd love to join.

I've seen quite a few posts about Rocket League around here. So I was thinking, why not make a little GBAtemp tournament? If we get enough people there could be brackets where we all face each other in teams and it could be quite fun. And PC and PS4 are cross play so console players can be included too! And heck, if we get enough people to join in, I'll buy a $5-10 PSN/Steam card for the winner of it all. Whatdya think?

Of course not with Xbox one, you know, the console that I play Rocket League on

Last time I checked, Xbox One added cross play between PC; however, it obviously can't cross play between PS4.
This will be an issue if we have a player that's on PS4 and another player that's on Xbox One, as they wouldn't be able to play with each other.

Doesn't even work if a PC player is hosting the lobby, first player would join fine, but then the second player (from the other console) wouldn't be able to join.

I'd be in on PS4 if this is happening. PSN Shagwaro

That should be everyone that plays/shows interest? So that leaves us with odd numbers for all countries besides EU on its own (Canada works evenly, if Xbox can cross play PC). We could do 1v1 best of 3, or just 1v1 single match, versus everyone in the respective area bracket, and the winner moves on to face the winner for the other country bracket? That gives us decent connections for the first few matches, and mediocre ping in the last few matches.

 

[Lucar]

I should add that I'll be playing on PC.

 

[Supster131]

(Canada works evenly, if Xbox can cross play PC).

Xbox One can cross play with PC, so we should be fine on that regard. It'll only be an issue once/if he goes against a PS4 player.

Okay, thanks to the power of RNG...

@Boogieboo6 VS Chary

@Lucar VS @TheVinAnator

@VinsCool VS @wg93589

@AyanamiRei1 VS @shaunj66

@LittleFlame VS @GamerzHell9137

@Supster131 VS @Yudowat

Leaving out only Armadillo ( so sorry! but you're intensely skilled anyways, so it's okay to wait out the first bracket, right? ; )
And you'll all play 3 1v1 standard Soccar matches. Best 2/3 moves on to fight in the next bracket! Does that work for everyone? Let me know if I should alter anything.

 

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Okay, thanks to the power of RNG...

How the heck did you do that anyway? Are you suddenly scarlet witch?

 

[wg93589]

When do we start? @VinsCool

 

[VinsCool]

Well uh, yeah, when do we all start? and how? lol

 

[wg93589]

I guess we start on our own? @Chary ?

 

[Deleted User]

Sure, Let me look up a torrent for the game just a second!

I'm 2 poor

 

[Chary]

I guess we start on our own? @Chary ?

Yeah! Just hit up the person you're up against, be it in the thread, discord, PM, whatever, and find a good time that you can both play! Then once you're done, report back to the thread and say who won.

 

[wg93589]

Also forgot to ask 4 rules certain arena, settings stuff like that.
