Infinite boost is a thing, extra base speed is a thing, choosing your power up’s in rumble and skipping the timer is a thing, these are the most common we’ve run into. There is simple no other explanation unless the ping and packetloss warnings mean nothing because they don’t reflect bad connection with players that exhibit those behaviors.

I know one console is called voltage and there’s another that someone linked in the comments of johnnyboi’s video that had the TAS aerial stuff but I’d have to dig that back up.

    ​@@smellyghost It is literally impossible to cheat out mechanics in Rocket League in online matches, simply due to the fact that every mechanic needs to be set up before you can go for it, and you bots do not have the ability to micro manage ball control to get the setup right for the macroing to work, and humans do not have the precision, or the opportunities for that matter, to set the bot up in a way that would put it in a position to succeed. As for seeing hitboxes and ball trajectory, both of those things are completely useless. Good players already know where the hitboxes are and where the ball is going, and bad players cannot utilize the extra information for anything. The best you can do with it is practice, but in live gameplay, useless extra garbage on the screen is just a distraction. It is literally impossible to gain a competitive advantage from bots or cheats in online Rocket League. Doesn't matter what theorycrafters think.

    This isn’t even a speedrunning or challenge community tbh, so it’s even weirder and more impressive. Freestyling in rocket league is straight up about pushing the envelope while being stylish as fuck. It’s such a cool microcosm of the game. Cheating is obviously sooooo against the spirit of freestyling, even though it’s not an inherently competitive way of playing. It’s about being sick and doing sick shit, with real skill.

The thing that's always neat (and you did point this out too already) - is how these more creative and successful cheaters always end up improving the cheat detection that the community uses in the future. Some day it would be neat to get a tool that could automatically analyze a replay to verify that all the physics line up with what is mathematically possible for the normal game engine to produce.

    This same situation happened in Half-Life 2 Done Quick. There was an individual contributor that had some cheated segments in the speedrun. But it took something like a decade until people realized the segments were cheated by using host_timescale to do the segments at a slower speed. When you play the replay (demo file), they don't contain the host_timescale command in the replay, so they play at normal speed.

That is gonna take around an hour of relaxed cooking plus 30-45 min at least to eat and then another 15-30 min me just relaxing after the food. And that is a very straight forward easy to make meal. If then somebody asked for some replay from me that is not gonna be on my "important" list and I might not even get on that, that day. Just as a general rule never overread such things.
