Psyonix announced Rocket League has reached a new milestone with more than 34 million players worldwide.
The developer also revealed it is releasing a Player Report system that adds a new layer to of automation to the report-ban process. This automation is called the Language Ban system. Players will automatically be banned from online matches when certain words are seen in reports filed by players.
"As our community grows larger still, so too does the need to ensure that Rocket League is a consistently-safe, harassment-free place where players of all ages and backgrounds can come together and execute the sweetest of aerial goals and backflip saves," said Rocket League’s community manager Devin Connors. "The cornerstone of addressing in-game harassment is our 'Player Mute' and 'Report' systems, which can be accessed from the in-game menu mid-match."

that automated ban system could be abused so easily, all you would need to do is know the words to add and the person is banned until they can file a dispute on the ban... bad idea, should never automate something in such a way.
Also when this game comes to Switch in the holiday season I predict that number will increase by another million users easily.
It will prob hit 40m by January 2018. The game is a phenomenon and by fat the best game i ever got for free. It was worth the year of ps plus fee for that one game alone.
Aye Kero, I got it from psn+ as well, it's fantastic but I'll definitely be double dipping to get it on the Switch as both support of third parties on that platform and Psyonix for their fantastic game.
Does that mean it sold 34 million?
