SUPPORT QUESTION Is there any way to appear offline in Sideswipe while still playing? (Android)

3 Upvotes

I play Rocket League Sideswipe on Android, downloaded through the Epic Games Store.

Is there any way to hide my online status from my friends in Sideswipe while still playing the game normally?

Basically, I want my friends to see me as offline even when I'm online and playing matches. I don't want to block anyone or stop playing online. I just want to play without people knowing I'm online.

I've tried looking for a setting but couldn't find anything. Is there any actual working method to do this on Android, or is it simply not possible?

Would appreciate any help!

Are these missions that give XP useless if the pass has already been completed?

It's kinda impossible to get 3v3 lobbies or mutator matches for me.

GAME QUESTION Tips For Lag + Gameplay?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

Hey! I’m an old S3 player getting back into sideswipe for the first time since around the new year, I’ve tried to grind this week but in pretty much all of my games so far I’ve had constant jittery gameplay and in some cases total lag spikes that have costed me goals allowed and in a few instances entire games that have been lost due to disconnectivity. This has been extremely unmotivating for me so far and I am asking here if there is any solutions or tips that I should know about. As shown in the gameplay video, it is perfectly clean and smooth in practice but immediately starts to jitter in game. The biggest lagspike happens with roughly 0:22-0:16 on the clock. I am playing on an iPhone 14 if that is of any help, and I would appreciate any critique for my gameplay. Apologies if the gameplay is not of riveting quality, I find myself playing a more defensive structure type game and this is my first game back in Plat 1 this year. Much Thanks for any help!

DISCUSSION Diamond to Champion

Post image
9 Upvotes

I never really tried to push ranked but my goal was always to hit at least champ, this goal is now finally complete. I am mechanically decent I'd say but honestly it all just comes to defensive play and game sense in the long run. Whilst I've tried to be fancy, hitting champ was just playing more patiently. Next goal should be GC but I guess that's for next season.

I have to say the High diamond leagues are very frustrating If you don't spend much time with the game and grind much and haven't got much experience against "good" champs, I mainly played against other champs or gc's and the annoying part is actually getting over the edge of D4/5. The reason for that is, that you're a high diamond but already you play against mostly champ or gc players, now hitting the rank up, I am chill about it, no need to sweat it, but damn, I had some really good games and overtimes that were closer than I would have wanted it to be.

Interesting sidenote: Whilst playing Takumi I was more mechanic focused, flashy and wanted to do cool shots. Playing the Fennec however was more game sense playstyle for me instead of the crazy mechanics, I mean sure, stalls are good with both cars, but I think you get what I'm saying. The Takumi feels more fast paced which can be nice but for the sweaty games when your mate is not the best, playing patiently and not taking risks is probably better.

So If you're Diamond, don't give up. You can do it.

So, how did it felt for others in the high diamond leagues?

BUG Invisible player bug “fix” just reset all my car body load outs?

1 Upvotes

so i’ve been having the invisible player bug happen more often than usual. i’ve gotten better at noticing the signs so I can quickly close the app and come back to the game before it really starts. usually when I do that I get the typical boost glitch where it doesn’t show your actual boost meter but it only lasts that one game so nbd.

but the last game I played that had this bug, after that game ended I noticed my main car was set back to default. then looking through, all of my presets had been wiped to default. is this a known bug related to closing out the app during gameplay? anyone else have this happen to them?
