Jokes on you, I’m boycotting the game since Epic bought it and forced me to create an epic account to play it. After I purchased it on Steam, mind you. Absolute douche move and they can go fuck themselves. It should be illegal to alter a game post-launch so that you can’t play it under the same circumstances when you bought it.
The straw for me was when they made Snow Day competitive only. Stupid fucking decision and ruined the game for those of us who just got on to do some casual snow day.
I’m pretty sure this is because Epic servers don’t support Linux, payday 2 ran into this recently where Linux just no longer works. Epic is such a shit stain on the games industry
You mean you can’t play Rocket League on Linux at all? I haven’t played recently but a couple months ago it worked for me totally fine through Heroic Launcher.
I think he meant that it used to have a native Linux version, so much so that I got my copy from buying a steam controller. The first thing that epic did was rove the Linux build, and we had to use proton to play it. I remember complaining at the time and got a response from those dumbasses that always troll Linux users on steam saying something like “that’s your problem, the game still works for windows, just use windows”, I guess those same people now just play it on the epic store or whatever, because they seem so complacent when the game was removed from some people that I can only assume they were also complacent when it was removed from them.
Yeah that’s what I assumed, but saying “Epic servers don’t support Linux” had me a bit confused.
Also, the game is still playable from steam as long as you bought it before it was moved to the epic store. Not trying to defend epic, if it was up to me it would still be on steam, but those people probably haven’t had to move at all.
Admittedly I was inferring from the comment that the servers don’t work on Linux, specifically because of the example I used (payday 2) where that IS the case because of the switch to Epic’s servers a few months ago
I haven’t tried multiplayer, but I have played against bots on Linux through Steam and it works fine. I used to play MP in RL on Linux, butb I’m not touching that again now that Epic messed with it.
If I recall correctly they were offering refunds for a time on Steam, regardless of date purchased/hours played when the buyout was first announced. I’m not sure if it’s still available, but couldn’t hurt to ask.
Also OP would have accepted tos which no doubt set out you don’t own the game only a licence to access the game, once it moved off their platform they offered a refund… Shit yes but it’s what everyone signed up for when they kept paying steam
The ToS can’t take precedence over local consumer laws. That doesn’t change the fact in most cases you only own a licence to access the game not the game itself

Fucking loved snow day.
There’s only room for so many queues. If you just ignore the rank, competitive is casual.

ToS has been proven time and time again to mean nothing legally

Oh a TOStard
Same: I loved this game but Epic can fuck right off.
Exactly what I did. Went to Epic and I retired. F em!
