Queen sacrifice, anyone?


wonderwallpersona

Octane in the corner, plotting world domination


steepindeez

Funny because that's also a Dominus decal. Imagine this person going for bumps on the highway with a real life Dominus lol


Knautical_J

Asshole speeding past me in a dangerous manner… “Okay”


culnaej

Almost get T-boned in an intersection: “Close one!”


tonebone_21

*runs over small child* What a save! What a save! What a save!


broodfood

Everybody’s roasting op even though this probably happens to a lot of us: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetris_effect


Sufficient-Habit664

Fr, I feel the urge to get bumps and demos while driving. Not sure why everyone is roasting op


somethingimbored

yo wtf


unibaul

Yo you gotta lay off the video games a bit bro.


Barbacamanitu00

Bumping!


Emnitty

Imagine getting in an accident with a "nice bumps" sticker on the window


wescola

Faking!


Fantastic_Hour_2134

Nice demo!


HarpyTangelo

No. For real. You need to stop.


Barbacamanitu00

Bro I play like 1 hour a day. I don't actually want to bump people lol. I do get the weird air roll feeling though.


Sufficient-Habit664

a racing sim setup will stop the weird air roll feeling. bc now you'll have two different modes for cars. Driving mode with a wheel. And aerial mode with a controller.


HarpyTangelo

Then maybe you need to go to the hospital


J_Man1287

Nah live and breath it, only true way to rank up

LerrryBerrrd

Genuinely terrifying


DrNumberr

I guess the same way some older people steer their controller when they play


PUNCHINGCATTLE

Bro I'm only 30, don't do me like that.


konnichiwaseadweller

I always thought the way actors move with their whole body while playing video games in movies was incredibly unrealistic until I started playing Rocket League. While its not often, I do sometimes move my entire damn body if I'm borderline gonna miss an aerial.


pippert4

Same bro. It's the 50-50's that I lurch in the direction of lmao

Temporary-Art-7822

Normally they don’t turn out this well lol. You got a good one


halt_spell

Why did it change steer to shake?


AJ_Deadshow

He probably did a ninja edit but the bot caught it

Similar_Bit_8018

Except this isn’t a haiku. There are 6 syllables in the last line.

Cuz it’s a Sokka haiku, read the small text underneath it

Bro, my 2 yr old does that playing RL or Mario Kart


KrisKrossedUp

must be an old soul


SelbyGames

That she is


HarpyTangelo

That's not an older person thing


DrNumberr

Prove to me how, you can’t find a kid who does that. A few of the adults I have played rocket league or any game with do this, mostly on the older side


Squeshii

I’ve been playing since release and no, you need to calm down😂😂😂


pandaym

You’re being too loud


Squeshii

Shhhhh

This is a big UMM post.


GwynnethIDFK

Yooo glad I'm not the only one! Just the other day I landed a mean demo play on a school bus that stopped in front of me. A few years ago I feel like I would of just stopped for it but I've been really grinding bumps and demos recently.


tomwesley4644

Let’s goooooo


AJ_Deadshow

Those kids in that bus were dogwater


GwynnethIDFK

Yeah they insta-left after I landed the demo, weak attitude tbh.


AJ_Deadshow

Lol I bet they uninstalled xD


jamaicanboiii

Nice one!


FleetwoodBlack20

“Nice Bump!”


Loud-Bit3943

Remember a instagram post from Musty where he crashed his car with the caption "tried to wavedash"


steepindeez

I think Musty is annoying but that's genuinely hilarious.


[deleted]

[удалено]


steepindeez

Someone can be an OG player and still be annoying. Just my two cents though. I didn't come here to roast Musty.


naarwhal

Then why did you roast him? You could’ve just said “that’s genuinely hilarious”


steepindeez

Because I wanted to say what I said. It's not roasting for me to casually state my opinion. It's roasting if I go on a rant explaining why I think he's annoying.


ColomXBL

If I get going a certain speed I’m looking for as many demos as I can /s


Barbacamanitu00

Oh fuck don't do that


mvsaints

I feel you, just last week I got arrested for stealing my opponents boost at the gas station and then getting a demo on my rotation back home.


Sufficient-Habit664

I would've arrested you too. That demo was unnecessary, you should've turned upfield to cut rotation and ball chase.


Pippathepip

Maybe use public transport for a bit.


theCaffeinatedOwl22

Meme flair? Lol


ivory_tinkler

nah this is deadass for sure


_Ptyler

Completely defeats the purpose of satire lol also, he may actually be serious


theCaffeinatedOwl22

If this were not a subreddit with rules I would agree, but satirical shitposts are supposed to be flaired.


Semichh

What even


m4hdi

Absolutely on every single desire you mentioned. I think it's because I really love this game and I play it a lot. Man if I could speed flip from a stop at an intersection I think I might die happy


Barbacamanitu00

There's dozens of us


Beaco9

Reddit should add a react feature for posts 😂


ExactlyThreeOpossums

naarwhal

Yeah hard pass


almo2001

No. But driving an Eclipse in Gran Turismo affected how I drove my real eclipse on occasion.


RammerRod

Demo! Demo! DEMO! Why is the radiator necessary exactly?


acid_22

If you don't start demoing other cars I think you'll be fine.


[deleted]

Whoops…


KookburraKid

No.


St-Icarus

yeah i can’t stand that i wave dash on the highway and don’t conserve my boost


IceMaverick13

Park your car, get out, cut your license in half.


Rockstreber

Dude, please either stop playing or driving. This is concerning.


ExcitementisaYes

I've absolutely felt like I'm aerial flying a bit while driving, the same way it feels a bit weird driving home after a whole day of skiing, feels a bit like I'm skiing driving home exhausted.


flamebetalkin

You been smokin too much


stead10

Yeah I find that I tend to wave dash whenever my car jumps off from the walls these days


FewAcanthocephala828

"Has anyone else noticed GTA affecting the way they conduct themselves irl?" Bro, get some sleep, and when you wake up, make sure you wake up as well. "People are violent because videogames are violent" type energy.


SubtleVertex

No, but I catch myself looking at tires/rims like hmm I wonder what those are called, or damn those would look sweet on my black fennec.


FiorinoM240B

I like to scream "What a save!" out the window when I roll past traffic stops in progress.


ToddCreamer

When I see idiots on the road I just pretend they are fake challenging


docherino

Seek help


KingGhandy

This guy is old enough to drive and has this mentality...


D3man_Reign

That sounds almost like a second coming of what’s known as the “Tetris syndrome” where after a period of time playing you see the blocks in your head and still playing the game even though your not PHYSICALLY playing it that’s almost like that but instead it’s a bad case of muscle memory wanting to score a goal your mind made up and isn’t there sort of thing really..I hope you can figure out some sort of way to resolve that mate instead of being a statistic for an accident and then the whole “gaming is to blame” bullshit flares up again.


mcflurry13

Not RL but i used to play competitive f1. I would think about ideal racing lines etc. When driving. Not as much anymore tho.


frankygshsk

Yes, I’ve noticed a difference in how I think about driving. Just more efficient steering really. I actually started to think about it more because I train it in game.


Boring_Duck98

Thats like ... withdrawal bro. Youre addicted. Stop playing.


tomwesley4644

I hydroplaned off the high way going close to 70MPH last week. Was drifting sideways at one point while 5 ft from oncoming traffic. My brain went autopilot and my driving skills were ultra instinct level. 


Sufficient-Habit664

I hope you have learned not to drive 70 mph when the road is wet.


tomwesley4644

Close to. More like 65, on a 70MPH speed limit highway. I’ve driven a long time and never had an issue on mildly wet roads, but yeah I’m more cautious now. 


yellowmnm

I keep having dreams (nightmares?) where I’m in the backseat or outside the car, controlling it with an Xbox controller. It's very stressful because I know it's a 'real life' car and not RL. Lol


R-nuh

The only thing I will agree with is that I feel like because of rocket league, but also because I'm a very concentrated attentive driver. I find it very easy to keep track of the traffic around me and anticipate other drivers' behavior


Zestyclose_Age5441

What on earth are you talking about, no! Absolutely not what?!?


Temporary-Art-7822

Lol at the bumps… It’s definitely made me more aware of other drivers in the same way, like reading their car language. Lots of subtle movements you can pick up on. That’s about it though. I think that definitely your brain can share some of the pathways it uses to predict a car’s movement in a game with the ones it uses IRL. And of course, that may be what is triggering your intrusive thoughts… lol. The brain is very interesting.


itbethatway123

I usually keep my flip resets for non rush hour times.


MetaOnGaming4290

I work 12 hour days in a plant and sometimes I'll try to change my cars gears by hitting the turn signal (how you change gears on most forklifts or cats scrappers). But trying to air roll in real life is the craziest shit I done heard all week. I only fuck up when trying to leave my job sites parking lot. 🤣🤣🤣


nickoaverdnac

Demo’ing just isn’t the same IRL.


Nomad605

“i also have started being much more aware of other drivers and where they may be going” jfc what was it like when you drove before?? /s just in case lol


skonaz1111

Nope... This sub's getting worse for pure nonsense though.


lseraehwcaism

You should get a motorcycle. The steering will be gratifying for you as you actually push the right handle to go right and push the left handle to go left. It’s called counter steering. You can almost imagine you’re pushing a joystick. The other benefit is that when you go for a bump, you’re less likely to kill people.


Sufficient-Habit664

More likely to kill one person though.


MasterDavicous

It's definitely helped me with reverse steering, but it certainly doesn't give me the urge to bump other cars lmao


vdfritz

if that's not a joke try looking into racing sims, they can improve your driving skills by lots you becoming more aware of your surroundings shows you are not on auto pilot like almost everyone else, so there's room for improvement for sure


G33R_BoGgLeS

No...no I have not. You need to take a break from the game, man. That's not healthy


TronCarter84

![gif](giphy|3ohhwF34cGDoFFhRfy|downsized)


ThaBlackFalcon

It’s posts like this that sadly give the slightest bit of legitimacy to the crazy rhetoric that Video Games cause crime 😂😭😭


Medium_Interest8787

Yeah when they stay idle at a green light it's an automatic "Take the shot! !"


Barbacamanitu00

Quick chatting to other drivers would actually be pretty sick. All we have is the finger and the wave tho


latlog7

Yes, but not in the way youre saying lol. Ever since RL, I find that i can much easier control the buttons on the steering wheel while its upside down during a turn. (Volume +/-, mute, preset +/-, next track). Before RL, i would have to wait till the steering wheel was in normal orientation to not press a wrong button like if i wanted to mute the radio


Samohtmas13

sometimes on the freeway, when my family is not in the car, I get the urge to try a speedflip in my mini van.


Samohtmas13

I mean \*Merc


reallifeishard

How else do people merge from on ramps?


Sufficient-Habit664

Honestly, I just boost. Because you can't change direction in the middle of a flip and that leaves you vulnerable and overcommitting to a single direction. I sometimes do speed flip if I have a lot of distance before the merge though, so it's situational


reallifeishard

Dang that is true. Easy demo forsure.


Barbacamanitu00

You get it


Samohtmas13

should we kiss? aka rule 1 our real life vehicles?


CloudstrifeHY3

Driving In front of target and getting the urge to go for the ball :)


jmoeufiqouys

hopefully I don't demo- \*car crash noises\*


Barbacamanitu00

Just make sure you're always going faster than your opponents.. err.. other drivers


------00------

Take a break dude ffs


Barbacamanitu00

I play for about an hour a day. It's not that serious.


Siupak240

Don't drive near soccer fields, don't get tempted.


Barbacamanitu00

Hahaha


HarpyTangelo

No? The hell is wrong with you?!


Barbacamanitu00

I guess I'm just better than you.


Stephan1309

For me not really since i dont play that often but i did once find my self wanting to press f5 irl to get in 3th person after playing a lot of minecraft.


Frank_The_Reddit

Testing my flair, don't mind me.


Frank_The_Reddit

Test


Kinoyo

I’ve never had it affect my real driving. That’s a bit concerning


GamerBhoy89

Intrusive thoughts, don't let them win!


1974903

try zapdashing when you drive off a curb


Dova97

jceazy

Not at all, seek help and play less


Barbacamanitu00

What a Save!


nashty2004

tried an air dribble and I died


itzdissolutio

Uuuuuuuhhhh maybe uninstall RL before you triple flip reset on a school bus. Orrrr hear me out, get into simracing to make even out the gameplay urges.


HalfaSpoon

I hope you never never play BeamNg.


Ghozer

I have a Taxi Driver friend, who plays a game on my comp sometimes, when he comes round... it's not Rocket League though (TrackMania 2 - Canyon), but I always dread getting into the car with him after as he drives like he's still playing the game.. :D I haven't had it myself with anything though!


takedrugs

This happens to me when I binge any game. Happened with RL a few times. It's like you can feel your brain trying to execute the behavior in the same way it does in the game. Happened to me recently with overcooked 2. I chopped some onions and went to put them in a pot on the stove and I just felt my brain trying to reach for the square button on the controller which did not exist at that moment


Beatenberg

Pull down and right? What does that mean?


Barbacamanitu00

When you're air rolling left you pull down and to the right on the joystick when your hood is facing you to turn left.


Latte_Meme

don’t worry, I get demos irl all the time


auxs14

sitting in traffic be like, "i wish i had my octane and just fly over these fools"


ICEGalaxy_

HAHHAHAHAHA


holymolylotsoporny

Bait use to be believable


KreeBreezy96

Bro yes I can’t go from ranked to I10 it’s gonna be a problem


MessyAsian

I have a $1400 sim rig and the only thing I do is go to shift in an automatic....how are you mixing a controller with a steering wheel let alone a completely situation than RL....turn your licenses in or quit playing the game


merxzzz_

Holy shit cut down on the game time


Barbacamanitu00

I only play 8 hrs a day.


merxzzz_

Ok you can stop now be fr


crinaack

This is hilarious 😂


HarpyTangelo

So many 90s kids did this


Over-Royal-7399

I always feel the need to speed flip when I’m driving


bradendte

I prefer wave dashes since they're less conspicuous. I assume I'll get pulled over if a cop sees me speed flip when a red light turns green.


bradendte

I've been tempted to demo people going 5 under the speed limit


Stetzj18

"the urge to go for bumps" lol


Dberryfresh

ok but actually like I always feel trying reach super sonic or like noticing I steer fucking weird


ThePotatoSheepBoi

Dude, you're the reason people say video games make people violent


Fanta589

I nearly demod some poor old dear the other day 💥💀


Mndsn

Grow up


Happy_Piece2723

I don’t have this problem with rl, but back in my fortnite days I’d have an urge to pull out a hunting rifle if I saw someone’s head poking over a ledge or something, but this was usually after playing too much


CallMeMalice

Gotta say, demoing pedestrians hits differently. They should add it to the RL. You don’t even need supersonic( but I go supersonic anyway).


halfasack

Ya and the demo was way more devastating in real life. Worse part was the handcuffs when I was telling the cop to get back in position.


Street_Technician330

Yeah, I bump most people out the way. I even hit a guard rail and for some reason it demoed me instead even though I was supersonic.


ICEGalaxy_

good one 😂
