I thought rumble would be a terrible gimmick but it's actually good fun and gets quite tactical. Many a time I shouted in glee after using the plunger to fling the ball into the goal, only to have it frozen just before it crossed the line.

Had a moment last night where I went to use the plunger to pull the ball out from in front of our goal, but I actually had the grapple power up and ended up firing the ball into our own goal by mistake. Oops

Utterly trolled. Bought 5 keys to unlock three crates, decals in all three!

How can you tell? PS4 players showed up as PsyNet before i assumed the Xbox players would as well?

I never knew that! I wondered why so many people came up as PsyNet.

I do enjoy this game, bought it a few months back and give it a quick go most evenings.

I just turn the chat off for the other team, as you say idiots for the most part.

Fight fire with fire

I can't get past Gold 1 so not sure if it gets any better.

I find it amusing 9/10 times it's the person who's done the least that's the most critical.

True!

I just dont get it, i do report it for lols but not really that fussed on a personal level, but it just annoys me that people even think to stop and abuse others in the chat.

May turn off other team chat but last night i was underfire from my team mate who kept knocking me out of the way, stealing my shots etc then moaned that i didnt score etc.. he did score a massive 1 goal mind so he has every right to be mad

When I have one of those people what I like to do is spend the scoreboard/finding new match time to write a "lovely" reply. Then just before I get put into a new match or the timer runs out send it.

I imagine not being able to reply upsets them a lot more than the insult(If you want good ones speak to Josh86

) added to they cant report me as I've left

Awesome. Guess easiest way would be to add me on steam "" and join the OcUK Discord.

I'll be on tomorrow. Way too tired for it atm

. Missing some obvious shots

Aquadome (inc Aquacars) update just came down for me.

CooK1E · 19 Oct 2016 at 23:17

I'm assuming people are still playing?!

its a long shot (and I'm assuming its allowed here) but does anyone want to trade? I've got 4x Champions Crate 2's & 3x Champions Crate 3's and want some keys.

TriedandTested · 19 Oct 2016 at 23:35

Er, yeah! it's pretty much one of my favourite games ever made.

No promises, but what's you're steam name and I'll add you. Next time i'm on i'll see what I've got. Lots of keys i think.

Hey all

Just getting into this - bought it for my 5yo to play with me and i've started playing it on my own whenever I can!

Struggling to know how to deal with high balls coming down on me and running on the walls and of course aerials - jump timing seems to be getting better.

DaleTheWhale · 15 Nov 2016 at 11:00

Free play is good for practising wall control, from reset hit it towards the wall and it will roll up, then practice following it up and jumping from the wall.

For aerials, the training mode will help a lot, remember to double jump to get in the air quicker, a lot of people jump, boost and then jump again to hit the ball, but it's rather slow and doesn't help with shot power.

High balls, either if you have time, let it hit the front/side of your car to then dribble the ball, or challenge it in mid-air with an aerial.

Bantu · 15 Nov 2016 at 11:53

are there any good wiki's or channels that could help with getting into this? I'm looking to buy it soon and want to see what the fuss is about
