Quality downgrade after uploading?

Hey guys!

So i've been recording and testing my render settings and what not, and managed to get them perfect. The rendered out video looks 1:1 to the raw file. However, whenever I upload to youtube, the video becomes grainy, and dirty when theres movement involved in the video. If I'm standing still the quality is superb. As seen on my channel's rocket league videos named "Bad Play" and "Law, you dawg" (for some reason I can't add a link here). As you can see, while i'm standing in the lobby, it looks great. Once the game starts,however, and I start moving around, it goes downhill.

My settup:

Asus gaming laptop:

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4710HQ CPU @ 2.5GHz
Nvidia GeForce GTX 870m
16Gb RAM, 64-bit Operating system, Windows 10


Sound: recording with Razor Seiren, editing with Audacity.
Recording with: Nvidia build in recorder, Shadowplay. I record at 1080p, 30fps 50Mbps using H.264.
Editing: Sony Vegas 13.
Render settings:

Project settings:

Does the upload speed affect the quality? Because I can't think of anything, why youtube would downgrade my video quality. Has anyone encountered this before?

P.S. I know I have to disable resample.

Thanks for any kind of help,
Cheers!
 
I'm not sure if it's related but sometimes when you upload to YouTube it gradually makes its way back up to how it was rendered. Like I upload a video and it says 144p when I render in 1080p but it normally just takes a while

Yeah, I know. That happens to everyone. However, even after a while, my video quality is still not as good as it should be.

I have no idea, YouTube has been really glitchy recently with the notifications and videos freezing at the beginning, could be a temporary bug?

Well, I've got no choice but to wait and see. Because I really have no idea what could be done. I just hope it's not one of those things, where you can't upload good quality videos unless you got a certain amount of subscribers/views...
 
There is no use in rendering as RAW or at ultra high bitrate because YouTube will always downscale the bitrate to match their player. This problem was seen by DanzNewz as well when trying to render his Arkham Knight playthrough at maximum quality and max bitrate.

Just render it using the YouTube preset and tweak that slightly.

But is it the rendering's fault? I mean, after I watch the rendered videos, they look crisp clean. But once uploaded get grainy.

No it isn't the rendering's fault. I'm saying that there is no reason for you to render at such a high bitrate because YouTube will always lower it.
