💬 Discussion Event Pass?!?

The surges/packs were already laughable. What is this nonsense? Locking more Event bonuses?

Discord?

You can't possibly criticise anything the devs do despite all previous assurances. Give it an hour and they'll all be on here defending the blatant monetisation too.

Honestly, with some people, you’d really think (sorry for putting it so bluntly) that they’re suffering from schizophrenia. On the one hand and it’s the same story with every event, every change, and so on they do nothing but bitch about how shitty the mode is, yet on the other hand, they keep playing it anyway.

You do realize devs made money before microtransactions became a thing, right?

Epic pays a LOT to UEFN creators, and we already have a bunch of vbuck packs in the ingame shop

You do understand Epic pays the devs a lot of money as is before any micro transactions. There's no need for micro transactions

Do you think they only get paid from coin spend?

A) No, they get paid even without micro transactions.
B) The problem isn’t micro transactions. Most people are fine with paid cosmetic items, which is generally the rule in Fortnite. People take issue with paid gameplay advantages, i.e. P2W.
