Rocket League Season 7 will start today. However, the developer just released another patch yesterday that prepares the game for the new season. Download the latest patch to get new content, several tweaks, and a ton of bug fixes.
A new Arena Variant Utopia Coliseum (Gilded) has been added to Free Play and Private Matches. From now on, game save data will save training pack progress. Custom Training Menu now also features a “History” tab.
You can read about more changes below.
Custom Training Updates
- You can now complete shots in a training pack in any order you want
- You can reset progress on any training pack (see Pause Menu changes below)
- New controls:
- Next and Previous Shot: Freely swap between shots in a training pack
- Select Shot: Press and hold will bring up a new drop-down menu that allows you to pick which shot in the pack you want to practice
- Shuffle Shots: Randomize the shot order (press again to reset to the original order)
- Shot Mirroring: Flip a shot to the opposing side of the arena. Mirroring works on all Arenas currently available in Custom Training
- To view and change Custom Training controls:
- Load into a Custom Training pack
- Go to Settings > Controls > View/Change Bindings
- Scroll to the very bottom, and you will see the new inputs right below controls for Knockout
- New options have been added to the Custom Training Pause Menu
- Reset Progress
- End Training
- End Training screen: From here, you can jump back into the pack, change to a different game mode, change the training pack, or go back to the main menu.
- This screen will appear the first time you complete every shot in a training pack, and any time you complete all of the shots in a pack after resetting progress
- This screen won’t automatically appear if you are using a training pack that has already been completed if its progress hasn’t been reset
Painted Items
- Sort by Paints: You can now sort Customization Items by Paints in the Car Customization and Manage Inventory menus
- Gold Paint: "Gold" has been added as a Painted color attribute, available on select Customization Items
Player Behavior
- We have made changes and improvements to how we track and take action against in-game griefing and scoring on your own team (“own-goaling”)
- If you witness any griefing or own-goaling during a match, please use the “Match Throwing/Griefing” report reason
- This will lead to disciplinary action under the “Unsportsmanlike Conduct” ban reason
- When a player is banned, a “Report Feedback” notification is sent to all players who sent in eligible reports for Match Throwing/Griefing
General
- Similar to the new shot controls in Custom Training, ball controls in Free Play now display at all times in the upper left corner
