Does anyone know if support for the modern XBox Gamertag is planned?
I see special characters for usernames from other platforms all the time, so RL itself seems to be able to handle special characters. But for some reason, XBox users get their legacy variant of the Gamertag in Rocket League.
First I just accepted the fact that a bug prevents you from blocking people, but I had enough of toxic teammates today, did some search and neither a regular search nor a reddit focused one brought relevant results. It's like nobody had this bug, but now I'm unable to mute/block people.
The block button is there, you can press it, it even gives a sound effect, but it doesn't turn into a 'blocked' button, and the chaser brats just happily spew their toxicity all game.
Did I miss something? Is it just me? Is there a maximum number of people you can block, or something?
UPDATE: After verifying integrity of local game cache files, it's still the same, so I thought I would contact Epic support. Their upload limit is 9.5MB, which is kinda funny in 2025, but okay, millions of reports (surely), let's just upload the footage to my YT channel and link it as a non-public video (it looks like pea soup already, and it's ~17MB).
Their reply was

Okay, help me out. I've been as high ranked as Champ 2 in duos but recently I can barely make it out of Platinum 3. Whenever I have a teammate who scores as many points as me or higher we win every time, usually it's not even close. But so often I have teammates who can barely get 100 points. Missing hits, can't rotate, can't defend. I will get a good teammate one out of every five matches or so, and then the rest can barely hit the ball. Is this par for the course or am I doing something wrong?

Could do voice comms on discord, or not.
This is my favorite game mode and I wish I had more consistent teammates who knew how to play it and enjoy it.
I’m competitive, but ultimately just like to have fun and meet people. Ive been playing since 2014. Peaked at C2.4 in DS the last time it was around but I’m consistently D3/C1 most of the time. Would like to see if I can touch that GC just once maybe!
Is it possible to get rocket league to use the modern gamer tag from XBox?
I'm getting the legacy variant of my gamer tag (the difference is an o instead of an ö in my name). I have seen special characters in Rocket League names so the game seems to support special characters so I don't understand why they use the legacy gamer tag from XBox.
Got my garage full of diffrent designs, and noticed a couple of my dominus' were lacking a decal. I'm terrible with names, but the jigsaw face, the black base with gold trim wolf, and an old tournament reward kinda like 20xx but I don't think that was it. Had 2 of the last one, one being painted. All gone though. Looked again throughout my invetory, cause maybe I just deselected it on the first car, but knew it was fishy when I noticed the second. Checked my archived items and nothing there
The Season 17 update could have gone smoother, especially for our players on Xbox 😅 While we work on restoring 120 fps support on Xbox, we’re granting the following to players on all platforms:
1️⃣ "Neo Combustion" Engine Audio \
2️⃣ "S17 Launch Survivor" Player Title \
3️⃣ 2 Exotic + 1 Black Market Drops
Platforms: Epic Games Store, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Steam, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S
CHANGES AND UPDATES
Beckwith Park (Snowy) removed from arena rotation due to visibility issues, will return in a later update.
Xbox Series X|S players can expect to see improved performance and more consistent FPS after this update, as the “Video Quality” settings have been restored.
120 FPS is not yet restored, we’re still working towards a solution and are looking to resolve this ASAP.
BUG FIXES
Fixed a visual issue where Boost Pads became invisible during a match, players could still drive over and pick up these Boost Pads.
Fixed Auto Tournament notification text overlapping with the Ball Manipulation Controls when in an Online Free Play match.
Fixed a visual issue causing the Armadillo, Hogsticker, and the Video Game Antenna to not appear in player garages on Xbox.
Fixed users being able to communicate via voice and
In 2s and 3s, 1s I'm still gold 3 for unknown reasons. Guess I'm just not consistent enough yet. Sometimes I drop as low as silver 2 in 1s which I don't understand at all.. but I'm done being upset. It's such a fun game.
Nothing else really. I'm just very proud of my ability to adapt and improve beyond gold. Back when I initially bought the game in 2016, I used to rage at every loss and I'm sure my blood pressure was thru the roof. I'd forcibly uninstall the game at the end of every play session.. yeah, super unhealthy.
So I quit for a few years, came back in 2023 having been regularly meditating, and talking openly to those friends who would listen about my struggles, and I'd listen to theirs. I talked out so many rage issues and found that my anxiety and potential autism would cause me to release directionless rage at innocent bystanders.
I brought that to an end. I'm not sure how good I actually am, I still regularly dominate matches at plat 2 so who knows, the sky is the l
