'Rocket League' Trading Guide, Tips and Tricks: Making a Successful Trade

By Emmanuelle Espiritu, Christian Post Contributor Sunday, March 05, 2017

Trading has become an important part of the sports video game "Rocket League" ever since player-to-player trade became possible. But an effective trade can only be possible when the player is armed with the right information.

While items can be attained through various means within the game (like unlocking them as rewards for winning competitions) some items are just not that easy to come by. When a need for a particular item arises, a player will have a better chance of attaining said item by trading with other players. But for a successful trade to be made, players should first take an effort to familiarize themselves with the current and exact prices of the items available in the game.

A complete list of the items plus the number of keys that a player needs to acquire them has been made available on the Steam Community forum. Knowing how much each item cost will make for a successful trade and will also ensure that a player will get the best deal for his or her item.

Being familiar with the current prices of items will also protect a player from deals that could put them at a disadvantage, like trading a higher priced item for a lower priced one. A little bit of effort put in acquiring significant trading information can really go a long way towards an efficient trade.

The price list on the Steam Community forum is applicable to PlayStation 4 (PS4) and Xbox players of the game "Rocket League." Items that can be traded are the ones that have been acquired from the crate drop system, wherein a player receives a crate every time he or she successfully finishes a competitive match. Inside each crate is a random item that may range from exotic wheels, decals, and other cosmetic items that can enhance the overall look of a player's car.

Players to trade with can be found in "Rocket League" trading communities such as the one on PS4 called "Rocket League Trade Group." Some trading sites also employ a variety of filters to make it easier to find players with specific items to trade.
