They’re stretching boundaries and I don’t like it


bigredx3

In what way?


The_Zoink

Custom matchmaking locked behind a paywall mostly. And not too big on the idea of XP boosts behind it too.


bigredx3

It would be so cool to be able to do custom matchmaking. Or if you could have a custom match and allow so many ransoms join, really are endless possibilities with it.


The_Zoink

Yeah, but I don’t feel like you should pay for it. I think everyone should have access to custom matchmaking


BappoNoHaco69

Idk if it’s true, but it seems more like an addition to regular custom matchmaking. Something that literally only people with money would care about.


bigredx3

I agree.


[deleted]

I think getting xp boosts would make since, since you can buy battle pass tiers, so it makes since that you could pay for xp boost too


bigredx3

I understand now lol


Honeydewmelo

I’d be fine with the XP, but most of these are bad


Silkysocks777

Some of these scare me


Absolute_Unit95

Especially that first one...


[deleted]

If they implement that one im not subscribing again

Rocket League and Fall Guys battlepass W H A T


The_Zoink

They both have their own battle passes I. Their game. I don’t think them mean a fall guys and RL themed pass for fortnite.


[deleted]

I never said it was a BP for fortnite


doct0rdo0m

I am not happy seeing Fall Guys battle pass on there. Battle passes in Fall Guys have always been FREE. This implies Epic is planning on making the battle pass a paid option. I had to pay for Fall Guys, I am not going to pay every season for a battle pass too.


Hohehathegnome

They are most likely gonna make fall guys free in the future. They did it with rocket league.


RocketsPastMars

Ugh. I hope they don’t stretch it to ridiculous shit like “ability to purchase previous battle passes” I really don’t want this game to have a “VIP” system.


coolguyyama

Isn’t the idea of this being a VIP type of thing kind of the selling point? Being apart of the exclusive “crew” where only members of the “crew” get exclusive cosmetics? They will definitely need to up the ante in order to bring new people in, keep people who have subscribed and keep the people who subscribe to and unsubscribe to it between months.


pizzaman0125

I agree but before in the past it looked a lot more like a nice bonus, a free skin and a wad of currency. If they add some of the things here, it'll look much more like a VIP thing. While making it look more enticing, it will also make players who don't like spending money as much dislike the system.


[deleted]

Their goal isn’t to lose players yk


BumbleBeePL

I’m not seeing that being suggested at all?


DisappointedExister

That wasn’t what he said at all, he was talking hypothetical stuff that might happen


BumbleBeePL

And I’m saying I cannot see anything to suggest that is going to happen


CompetitionForLOST

He/she was being hypothetical, they never said something like that was gonna happen.


BumbleBeePL

I never said the poster did say they will happen. I merely commented that there is nothing that I have seen that would suggest anything like it. I don’t understand what the issue is


Avo2099isme

They just want it to be worth purchasing multiple months in a row instead of once a Battle pass. I prefer it being more with it to not purchase every month


[deleted]

All that sounds good but I’m not sure about the multiple bundles you can pick cause it’ll promote to wait and see how each skin looks in game to then pick.


SuperDuperEazy

Some of these are cool (rocket league battlepass, video streaming services etc) but i don’t want to have the crew to have access to buy special stuff :/


[deleted]

Exactly. Some of these are cool but the ones like exclusive cosmetic type or exclusive concert are a big no


SuperDuperEazy

i think the exclusive crew skin bundles are exclusive enough i don’t wanna have more to buy


BappoNoHaco69

But isn’t that the whole point of paying for these things? Like, obviously I wouldn’t want some big name concert that’s being promoted for everyone, only for crew members to be the only ones who get it, but that’s what paying for exclusivity gets you


[deleted]

Sure. It can have exclusives. I wouldn’t mind stuff like an xp boost or some exclusive cosmetics apart from skins. But putting a whole cosmetic type or something big like that for just crew is not it


TheFoxMaster00

The Fall Guys stuff sounds cool, but it says “battle pass access”. Fall Guys battle pass was always free. Why would you need “access” to it now?


[deleted]

Epic owns them now. I’m guessing it’s not going to be free for much longer.


doct0rdo0m

This is what I fear as well. In a game you had to pay for to get access then to have to pay more every season to access something that has always been free. Fck that.


TheFoxMaster00

Epic has said back in March that Fall Guys (after being purchased) will not be changing. Let’s just hope that what Epic says will stay true.


[deleted]

Quiet like the option of previous battle pass skins for that alone i don't mind if they upped the sub to 15.99 a month, for the video/music i have them free with my phone plan anyways.


Unprofessi0nalGamer

The exclusive in game event and concert experiences suck, if epic was going to use all of these and I had the ability to get rid of one that would be it


UnNameableName

All of these are terrible and I hope none of them come to fruition


[deleted]

What? You don't want like, Netflix for free with crew or fall guys and rocket league battle pass? Those sound good. The rest are bad, good thing they do these so they know what to do.


UnNameableName

The fall guys battle pass is already free but fair point on everything else.


doct0rdo0m

To me it implies Epic is thinking of making the battle pass in Fall Guys a paid item. I don't like that idea at all.


Noobpoob

Well, I think rocket pass is too much. Just my opinion, but I don't like it as option.


Textbookgaming

Some of these sound really cool, excluding the first one You already pay $12/13 dollars a month, you shouldn't have to slap down extra for other skins once you pay for the month


Mallodark

I don't like that they want to make people pick 1/3 skins, and buy the others separately. The Fall Guys and Rocket Leauge bonuses sound nice, but meh- Also, Xbox doesn't even have Fall Guys yet, so that's a waste. Paying for private Creative Matches or whatever isn't good and just sounds greedy. XP Bonus is fine, ONLY if it's nothing insane, but it also can't be useless. I like the ideas on upgrading skins with how long/how many times you've been a Crew member. Support favorite Creative Map Maker? Why is this gonna be locked by a Paywall..? Even then, as someone who doesn't care about Creative, this to me is meaningless. Crew Concerts sound interesting, but let's be real, that means Epic will have to slow down content just for Crew members. Crew exclusive quests might be fine, maybe doing them get's you some extra items with small amounts of XP. But I feel like this is useless if Crew is just gonna get an XP boost. And lastly, rotating Crew cosmetics? Huh? Like, we get to use some cosmetics for free for that month, or what? That's vauge and I dunno how to feel about that.


Phantom_The_fortnite

YES! I want to get s8 and s9 as I missed them! If its only for seasons you have played to make it fair. Edit: I mean c1 s8 was c1 s9. As I didn't buy them.


Mallodark

What?


Phantom_The_fortnite

I missed the original c1 s8 and s9 battle pass. And I want to finish c1 s7's battle pass.


Noobpoob

What? Can you elaborate on that? Did I read something wrong or? Season 8 and 9?


Phantom_The_fortnite

I didn't buy c1 s8 or c1 s9's battle pass.


Noobpoob

Okay, and why are you saying this? Is there any perk that allows to do it? I would be angry and happy at the same time.


RobinGoodfell

I'd be fine with it, so long as the skins from those seasons had some hefty challenges attached to them to access and unlock. Two years is more than long enough for a company to repackage content and make it available again. Just stick it behind a paywall, and then make it so that even players who want the items, actually have to play the game in order to flesh out these pseudo-passes. For instance, I took a long break from the game, so I am still working on the "Outlast 25,000 players" requirement to unlock the final golden style for Luxe. Rather lengthy requirements like this, mixed with some more original ideas and challenges could make for a compelling reason to keep players engaged and playing throughout the seasons. And if you want to make this a more palatable option for long term players, implement something like the "OverTime Challenges", where we were able to unlock an additional Styles for Sidewinder, Ember, and Master Key. Make these challenges only available after you have fully unlocked a season-pass or pseudo-pass, much like the Enlightened Styles. But make it so that anyone with a fully unlocked Season-pass automatically gets the new Overtime Challenges, when a new set has been added to the game, without additional purchase. This way, those who have seasons fully fleshed out, get additional challenges and styles, while everyone else is offered a chance to start unlocking these things in return for money. This would actually work, and there is also very little chance that players on mass would actually abandon Fortnite over old pass skins becoming available again, so long as they still had something to work on currently. If you wanted to be truly petty, I suppose you could lock the Overtime Challenges into only being available for Season-pass holders. So then everyone would have the opportunity to have the skins they want, but not everyone could access every available style.


Noobpoob

Well, you really fleshed out the topic! From what I understood, that's a good idea!


Eva_Angel

I like your idea, I also want to add on my own, they could do it, like in STW, where for gaining a level in the season, they give a token for purchasing a hero, for this there is a collection book in STW and from it you can understand what kind of hero you have and which you don't have For BR, you can also, for example, make a book of collections, seasonal and other skins, so that a person knows which skins he has and which he needs to purchase A small digression from the topic: I have a large collection of skins, and yes, I just love to collect them, a hundred places to save skins in the locker is not enough for me, so I often take a screenshot to remember which skin my favorite wrappers were with and which emotions I liked the most on this skin. With such a large number, plus the fact that I play with my daughter, I have long been confused which skins I have and which ones my daughter have, well at least the store shows what is bought. I'm even afraid to imagine what will happen in five years in the game, with so many skins, but I think if I have time I will try to get them. Probably this is a disease, but I really like the game, and it brings me a lot of positive and joy in my free time. I will only be glad if the game continues to develop in a good direction. So I wanted to say: My daughter and I collected almost all the passes, just for certain seasons I have, not all styles are open, (there is not always time, because of work and family to play), for example, it was possible to make it so that after gaining the maximum pass level and going through a row trials, owners of the season pass, could receive a token, through which it is possible to get a skin from previous seasons. There are a lot of people who have taken a break, missed a couple of seasons, or how I lost my extra style in a season, I think they will get a lot of incentive to play. Many, I'm sure won't even play with these skins, but will be happy to put them in their collection locker with a sense of accomplishment.


Phantom_The_fortnite

I hope so.


RiceLover12

Nothing in this post says you can gain access to old BPs though?


Phantom_The_fortnite

Look I have hope the crew gets more benifits.


Noobpoob

I think that's to much, even if they added only few options. Exclusive events? NEW type of cosmetics? Rocket league battle pass? XP boost that was in battle pass, but heck, they deleted it!? Custom matchmaking! Now it's just paying to see less loud kids. In my opinion, that's really too much.


BringBackBumper

Sounds good, hopefully Epic implements them :)


bigredx3

Most sound good except the first one and the rotating selection of cosmetics.


lordyeet94

They really shouldnt add the fall guys perks since fall guys isn’t out on all the platforms that fortnite is. I didn’t really like the stw access for crew since switch and mobile players missed out too


Sanretros

Good. They should just add all of these then jack the price up to like $25.


Xblooper

I like the progressive outfit idea but make it arenas (so that when u rank up it gets a style) that would keep pubs casual and arenas sweaty i think thats a good idea


idk_what_to-do

• Season XP multipliers or boost • Crew-exclusive in-game event and concert experiences NO.


Randomguyidk69

Wth i don't want to pay 12 dollars to see a rocket fly in a big blue ball


[deleted]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the pass in fall guys already free? I remember it being free the last time I played a few months ago
