I was playing casual mode. And yes.. I have the picture to show what kind of "Ranking" system they put me with. However that's nothing unusual, I've yet to ever get ranked with anyone close to my skill in any online game I've played save maybe -MAYBE- splatoon. *lets not get into the one time I attempted to play CoD and was with people 10 or so ranks above me on both my team and their team and then started receiving the insulting messages after the game was over in my inbox*

But I don't have rocket league on switch, and right now, I just can't see picking it up. I've got other games that don't push the "You are completely worthless and shouldn't exist." feel onto me, to play at the moment.

usually playing games online do that to people, I'm sorry you had to experience that. But there is always opportunities for better experiences. You got unlucky and matched with people of unequal skill and that isn't the best first experience so perhaps trying again when you are ready is always a option. :)

If it makes anyone feel any better, it was only about a year ago that everyone still absolutely sucked at the game. It was easy wins. Those were the days...now even silver is pretty difficult to battle through.

So you can't order a eshop code then use it to buy eshop games? :unsure:

Yeah i know you said your internet is slow and would still take long to download but least you will have it.
Nope, as I said, where I live you can't find any prepaid cards (eshop/ps store/google play/steam) on sale and my parents don't allow me to buy things online

I tried handheld mode and the game looks quite ugly at this dynamic resolution. Who knows, maybe they'll patch it up to native 720 later. Then I tried it on 144hz 2k on my pc...quite the difference. I don't regret it, I'll play both.

I think I'm kind of a natural at the game, I've definitely won far more games than I've lost since starting yesterday and I'm playing in all the different modes. I am loving this game.

PC will always be my primary system for Rocket League (having clocked up over 1000 hours and have a fair few good items) but I like the idea of having it on Switch. I wouldn't rule it out.

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
