03:38 - CLARIFICATION: you can hold the drift button down and change directions using the analog stick, still while maintaining the chain-drift. Some people find it easier to do it that way, since it doesn't risk mistiming it and messing up the direction change!
Also there are a TON more useful tips in the comments, so thank you to everyone for contributing your advice!
Thank YOU for compiling this for us! You are my go-to guy for all things Rocket Racing.
Some advice for newer players from somebody who is currently climbing through diamond (not the craziest flex I know, but still).
You will climb out the lower ranks incredibly easily by simply managing your turbo use properly. You will often see noob players using turbo at terrible times. Any time they see a straight, to quickly catch up, or out of panic because somebody behind them just popped theirs.
Do not fall into the trap of thinking of turbo as an easy way to catch up, because it's not. Consider that everyone is roughly going to have the same number of turbos throughout the race. Sure, you can pop yours now and get ahead of that guy in 1st place, but that guy is only going to pop his own at some point and take that lead back.
The trick is to use your turbo at moments in the track that will give you the most value. While this varies between maps, a general example I can give is any parts of a track that require lots of airtime (like having to fly across a long gap).
Being in the air slows you down quite drastically since your wheels aren't touching the ground and you have no way to gain speed by drifting. The exception to this, however, is turbo.
If you turbo across those gaps while other people are wasting theirs on basic straights you are getting way more value out of your turbo than they are. You not only get the speed boost of the turbo, you also DON'T get slowed down by those airborne segments while everyone else does. Double value.
Another small tip is that you can straighten your car out of a drift instantly by simply tapping the rocket drift button in the opposite direction (don't hold the button or else you will go into a full drift in the opposite direction instead). This sounds simple (and is) but will also give you a huge advantage over other players in lower ranks.
Danny I’ve been a fan of You and Leth for a long time and I love the content you make with him and this rocket racing content. I’m now diamond 2 and have used much of what you have taught me to get here.
Have any more tips for Beginners? Let me know what I missed! Next road to unreal will be out in 2 days! Thanks for watching, everyone! :D
Hey I've ran across in in games a few times, I just wanted to add to the part where you mention holding drift while in the air to maintain it. While in a drift, you can press and hold the drift button to straighten your car out right when you go airborne. You're able to fly normally and pitch your car up and down, but the animation doesn't show. It's difficult on the timing, but I found it useful in certain applications where you want to spread out the times you activate your drift boost.
in a full race as long as you place 7th or higher you will get some xp. top 4 get more. don't quit a difficult track because you don't know it, you may just get xp anyways
YO top 100 unreal player here, u talked about S-drifting briefly where people chain drift in an S shape along a Straight. It’s a pretty important skill to learn and it does take some practice, it’s faster along the straights I believe and it’s great for building up boost, especially important on the ‘easier’ tracks.
Well i think its only fair u tell the audience u can get more boost if u drift and then boost onto a speed pad for max speed
@@PDX-Red it’s weird tho, the rule doesn’t apply in lobbies with less players, for example I’ve placed 4th in a lobby of 7 and lost points but I’ve also been first in a lobby of 4 and got next to nothing in terms of ranking up, the whole system seems a little broken
For chain drifts i like to actually hold the drift button and point the other direction, it always works, drift normally-then point to opposite direction while u hold rocket drift.
Also something cool to mention for beginners is to learn how to drive while u on the cieling and manage to be able to control ur car cuz like that on begginer maps u can actually take upside down routes that the other beginners wont making the path clean for u to avoid other players destroying ur game.
And another thing to mention that is a super useful trick specially in maps like Riviera and Dust up 2 is to use the checkpoint rings to actually lounch ur car into it with an air dodge making u take the tightest turn possible( and im fully aware these maps are expert level but the thing is even tho i am on Diamond 2 i am still getting matched with Silver 1 ppl on expert maps and it always ends up horribly for them so u might run into those maps if u unlucky).
Goated comment, thanks for the info! I’m gonna take this into account for my next speedrun!
Hey Danny, not really a big deal for beginners but I would recommend unbinding drift and flip to different buttons. This will allow you to hold your drift while jumping and flip all while maintaining the boost you had built up from your drift. Love the channel btw, hoping to grow like you have too.
This man and his gigabrain 😮
Are L1 and R1 bound to anything useful by defualt? If not, then that's where I'm puttin em.
@@Zel-Veraan L1 would be to open the lobby board. I put drift on RB as that's where I have boost in Rocket League and kept X as my flip, I play on an XBOX controller. As I was already used to pressing RB it feels quite comfortable.
Hey man You and Leth have really helped me improve alot, I started around four days ago and now I'm halfway through d1 thank you so much for making the road to unreal series 👍
I would ad a reminder that going upside down inverts controls and to remember/practice this. Especially on the more advanced courses going upside down will be quite common.
yeah this one is a really good one to mention
Today I finally reached elite and I think I will improve my skills faster with your general suggestions. I've only been following you and Leth for a short time but your content always intrigues me. Thanks for making this video, I really needed a definitive guide since it will be very difficult to reach unreal but I will try.
Amazing guide! Very accessible and informative!
Keep rocking Danny. Great video.
I'm not playing yet because my PC is broken for almost half an year but i liked your tips, i didn't know that holding the drifting button while jumping would keep the bar going. I hope your channel grows bigger and bigger, you are doing an excellent job! Congratulations!
Glad I could help! and thank you!!
Love ur content watch it every day
Why I never knew you had a channel 😩 I am so happy.
Btw love EVERYTHING you are in on leths channel ❤️ you are such a vibe
A must see video for every player. Good job Danny
thanks for the kind words! :D
Thanks for the guide! Ive been stuck on silver trying to get the Jackie skin
Great video Man, well explained
The perfect guide we all needed
This was so helpful. Thanks alot!
You deserve so many more subscribers for this content man. Keep it up! I'm currently in Elite :)
Very Informational. I approve 👍
Wow Danny’s gonna my crazy with the vids
What an informational BANGER by my main man Danny, keep it up broski!
there it is i was wondering when you'd show up here
@@DannyLotus I was day late but I’ll always show up 😂
this is super helpful thank you!!!!!!
Amazing video Danny, Diamond one Thanks to you!
Love it so much bro❤
Bro this is the best guide ever, I was so lost before lol
Trying to farm xp because custom maps don’t give me shit anymore, thx for double drift info 🙏🏻
New sub! Keep up the great work!
Thank you bro
neat video danny, i liked and subscribed 👍
neat!
air dodging straight to the floor was massive
Thanks it is very helpful❤❤❤
babe wake up dannylotus uploaded
Danny I was just wondering when you hold the drift button and then jump it keeps the boost but what if someone bumps either before or in the air does it still work
if you keep your drift going while you jump you can take a shortcut never before seen on the anaconda map, im sure you can look up a video, its very op
When chaining drifts it’s easier to just hold square or x
This might be controversial, but if you are anywhere from 8th-12th and know there is no way for you to get higher, quit the match before the finish line. This way, you won't lose any rank % (for the time being) it works well in Diamond since its so hard to get rank up %.
Bruh just be better and make it back to first it’s actually pretty easy
@@therealkadence I've only done it once or twice when I choked up on the last lap when I could see the finish line lol
I’m some how in diamond 2 and just learned what drafting is 😂
I’m elite and had now idea you can tilt your car in the air like that 😂
Thanks I just hit gold 3 because of you
W MOVEMENT TUTORIAL
+1 Hello Danny nice job! Im still new to this game from some days and now Silver I trying for Gold to get the skin.. now im trying to play with mobile. Its kind of confusing and harder with controls sometimes and I wonder should I continue with mobile or on PC? What do u think, and thank you!
How do u have your own car? I’ve got heaps of cars but it doesn’t let me use any of them unless it I respawn
I know this is a bit random and un called for, but since you wanted Ideas and I think this content is VERY enjoyable I saw this channel called " CheeQu" which makes VERY entertaining work record videos, I think the world records for outpost, "🏆 Riviera World Record | Rocket Racing", and Windy Way are AMAZING!!!! ( Ill post this every vid lol), I think id be nice to collaborate and try to host new ideas with many, like the UA-cam I mentions to make new things!
Hey, i think if u could, i think it would be cool to find rocket racing tiktoks or something like that, and you should do some react videos. i just think that would be a cool idea
This is something I'm considering!
@@DannyLotus ok nice
I hope they add player made clubs. It'd be a fun way to engage with the community.
If they do add that, think we'll see "Friend of the Torch" become a club?
torch gang
If you hold a drift while in the air you keep the green boost bar
Yesssssssssirrrrr
How do u do a regular turbo
what are inverted controls?
How do people tilt cars upwards to jump longer
The problem above Elite is not to Win, but staying 30-60 min for to play 1 game
Queue eu or NA-East
@@ish_ SA ☠️
@@Nothing-fj6kr yeah you might have to take the terrible ping and play one a more active server
I've got one question that I feel like is crucial for me to rank up any higher (I'm in Diamond 2) - how do I exit out of a drift faster? It feels like it takes forever for my car to straighten out and sometimes I bump into hazards or people because of it.
Try pressing the handbrake again, ive done it and sometimes it ends the drift
Correction, ive experimented a bit and you have to hold the hand brake just before turning to the other side if you want to cleanly transition a drift, for straighten the car fast you have to turn to the other side then press the handbrake again
Can you do a guide for pc controls?
Almost to diamond 3. I've learned: the game is too glitchy/unpredictable to be truly skill based competitive, the physics/air control is clunky, your skill level can be totally negated by some noob that slams into you OR by an unpredictable demo. So in fairness it's def in the same veign as the old RL.
One more.. seems obvious, but don’t use ranked to practice or muck around. So many times I have to wait for a ranked match to finish, go into spectate to see someone either afk or mucking around. Yeah you can back out, but impacts the rank results and some quests also.
i cant even race all i see is under my car any fixes for this
Does every rank have different amount of players
how do i turbo on touchpad ):
Is it better to play with a keyboard or with a controller?
I’d recommend controller for any racing game!
Idk why but my drift doesn’t work like everyone else’s . Like so much fire when you guys in these videos drift I feel like I have to constantly tap it for it to even work a little bit .
I watched this idea to help me it did but the people that were behind me just left and it made me last
thank god for this guide but I'm still having trouble! I don't get the turbo which is the turbo button triangle? don't come for me I'm a grandma gamer 54 lol
Bros gonna but 10k by the end of the month mark my words
LOL. just hit 4k today thanks you guys! maybe 5k by the end of the month. It's been wild
@@DannyLotus nah nah nah if you keep up these bangers it will be 10 k you were at 3. Something 24 days ago I have faith
The problem with elite is that only like 7 people in my lobbies! So the progression is harsher
It’s impossible to get to unreal/rank up now because they made the rank more tedious and when I place 1st, I only get 4% rank and to be honest, it doesn’t feel like I was rewarded anything and it felt like I was in 6th
in champ right now im getting 3% for first its a STRUGGLE
I was in a match with you and leth earlier on Olympus 😂 unfortunately you got last place and he got second. It is what it is 💀
I'm diamond 2 on nintendo switch
I only got gold for the skin xD
LOL I respect that
3:44 I call this DBS'ing
we've been calling it DBS'ing (Drift Boost Stalling)
@@DannyLotus we is not me. So me is calling it jump drifting
@@AAUTOB4HNyou just said you call it DBS
@@yayayaokoksure if only you knew
@@AAUTOB4HN ya, you lost me.
I'm in elite and people keep having ten seconds of advance on me while I'm not making any mistakes, I don't understand
Love the content brother but I feel like the editing could be done better lemme know if you’re interested maybe?
Im diamond 3 and i play with keyboard because my joystick is broken, and you don't know how painful it is
Rocket Racing 😎 👌 ♥ 🙌 🚘🚗🚔🏎🚓⛈🌩⚡⚡⚡⚡
They really need to fix how much % we get for wins Cox Im hitting top 4 almost consistently and I get fuck all % 😭
No one knows why these coment will have so many likes
Not how it works bud
