Are you planning on keeping the drift board or will it just be a limited time thing?

We're working on a new single-occupancy vehicle and aren't quite sure how they'll play together. The Driftboard's reception has been really positive though, so we're actively discussing how long it should stick around.

will you fix the email system so i can complete 2fa?

We recently had three distinct issues with token delivery latency via email and are taking steps to ensure this is not a recurring theme. We are working on additional mechanisms for token delivery. Currently supported are email and Google Authenticator.

Do you have a persistent issue with 2FA?

Are there any plans to include mobile players into competitive at this point?

All mobile players have the same competitive opportunities as other platforms.

Are there any plans for a 'classic' mode? For example: - Original map - Only original weapons and mechanics

We tried to capture this vibe with our Unvaulted (Soon to be renamed Classic) LTM. We enjoy having the limited and old item set. It’s unlikely that we’ll have this available with the old map and old tuning values but glad folks are enjoying the LTM when it’s around.

Is double shotgun ever going to be brought back?

We do not have any plans to bring back the double shotgun. The main issue is that the high damage of the weapon is balanced by its slow rate of fire, and bypassing that weakness makes it too powerful.

60 fps for the switch?

I'm afraid that is not in the cards. Same goes for client-side replays, but we have efforts going towards server side replays.

Do you ever intend on slowing down the game in terms of mobility?

We’re always evaluating availability of different items, including mobility. Our goal is to have a healthy mix of all item types without overdoing it in any one area.

Will the “Getaway LTM” ever come back?

All LTMS have the potential to come back.

Will respawning enter the game? Perhaps more measures to cancel thirsting?

We’ve been considering this mechanic for a while and have been exploring it. Want to make sure we give it the time it needs and fully understand its impact on the game as a whole. Look for further updates during Season 8.

will you been improving the late game fps in things like pop ups, scrims, and customs?

There are both short and long term efforts to improve server performance during late game competitive settings. Engineering efforts aside, we are also looking at upgrading the hardware used for this purpose.

Epic, will you ever remove the account creation date restriction from account merging? If so, any idea when? Why on Earth did it matter when the account was made to be elgible to merge in the first place?

We added the account merging feature to accommodate players that had to create multiple accounts to play on both Sony Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch.

This requirement went away with the introduction of cross-progression.

We don't have plans to change details surrounding this due to potential for abuse / fraud.
