So, I’ve been messing around with this game, Rocket League, for a while now. It’s a fun game where you basically play soccer with cars. And one of the cars you can use is called an Octane. Now, I’m not a pro or anything, but I do like to customize my ride. I started digging around to see what colors I could get for my Octane, and that’s when I stumbled onto this whole thing about purple being a rare color for it.
At first, I thought, “Purple? Rare? Come on!” But the more I looked into it, the more I started to see people talking about it online. Some folks were saying the Octane, in general, is kind of a rare car to begin with. Others were talking about trading for it, like it was some kind of valuable item. I even saw some posts about people wanting to trade other stuff for a purple Octane. That’s when it hit me that maybe this was a bigger deal than I initially thought.
My Deep Dive into the Purple Octane
I started checking out these price guides for Rocket League stuff. I guess there’s a whole market where people trade these in-game items. And guess what? There were listings for the purple Octane! The prices were all over the place, but it was clear that people were willing to pay a decent amount for it. I also found out that there’s this thing called the RLCS, which is like a professional Rocket League competition. It turns out there was a special purple version of the Octane that was related to that, too. No wonder people are hunting for it!
I spent hours going through forums and videos. I found this one video of a guy super excited because he got a purple Octane from the in-game shop. Turns out, it doesn’t show up there very often. Then there was this other post where someone was talking about a “purple stim” and an “heirloom recolor.” I’m not gonna lie, I had no clue what any of that meant. But it sounded rare, and it had something to do with purple, so I kept reading. That’s when I found out that they fixed the rarity level of the purple Octane. It’s not as easy to get as most of the other colored items in the game. You can get other colored wheels, but the purple Octane is way less common.
What I Learned
So, yeah, it turns out that purple is actually a rare color for the Octane in Rocket League. It’s not just some basic color option you can pick. You either have to get lucky, trade for it, or, I guess, wait for it to maybe show up in the shop. I’m still not sure if I’ll ever get my hands on one, but it’s been a fun little adventure figuring all of this out. Who knew there was so much going on behind a simple car color in a video game?
After all of that, I decided to just enjoy the game. Whether I get a purple Octane or not, it doesn’t really change how much fun I have playing. But, I have to admit, it would be pretty cool to roll onto the field with that rare purple ride. Maybe someday!
