I've been an xbox player forever, but this account syncing has finally made me want to switch to Rocket League on PC. One of the major things in doing that is the workshop maps. Is there a recommended path for someone going from console to pc so that you get all available options? Like should we buy the steam version first? Or get it from epic?

Will the Epic account "Display Name" become your in-game name? For example if I'm OutaTime76 on Xbox, OutaTime on Steam, I choose Steam as my primary account, but neither name was available through Epic, so I'm GenericName504.

What shows when I play Rocket League on Steam?

Also keep in mind part of the Epic Games Account ruleset for linking is that a platform account cannot be linked to different Epic Games Accounts. So once you link your Steam account to one, you can't take it to a different one later. This is part of fraud prevention and other abuse.

What about the epic games store "lite" accounts you're talking about with no email, etc. Is that exempt? Would one have an issue unlinking from there and linking to a full account later?

If I create a new account after Rocket League goes F2P - can you give me an example of how I could get Credits somehow other than purchasing, if trading is not possible?

Does this proxy account get the Chopper EG Wheels, or is a fully setup account required for that?

Thanks. It still seems low to me, but who am I to judge what is fairly common.

Edit: Wasn't the limit for Steam more for combating bots, and not necessarily combating scamming, like play-to-player trading scams? To pay $5 to scam someone out of a potentially $100 TW octane seems like a no brainer if I'm a scammer. I mean i guess this might stop those random bots from sending people links to fake steam login sites "TO CLAIM YOUR FREE REWARDS" or whatever is the current bull they are pulling. So overall it's mostly a good thing.

That is an odd way of phrasing it, since you literally cannot receive "traded credits" if you cannot trade.

If I set my steam as primary and Xbox on secondary will I be able to have access to the Xbox items while playing through steam, or would I have to be playing through Epic Games?

It's probably more like when you play Fortnite on console. You get an Epic username that people on PC can use to add you, but you can't login on PC with it.

Thanks, I assume the proxy account won't effect linking if you want to do it later with a full account?

I don't play anywhere but pc, so I make the proxy account. If I then get it on say switch and want to fully link, I need an epic account. Is the proxy account going to cause a problem. Will Epic see it as X steam account has already been linked to an Epic account (the proxy one RL made) , and then won't let it link to a full epic account that I've now created?

Thanks.

Does that mean a one way platform transfer? Or does that mean that its full cross platform trading with the caveat of needing to own said platform?

Thanks for the example Corey! Very helpful . Would the same principle work for rocket pass?

2000 credits on switch. Buy rocket pass on switch. Get progress from playing on my PC ‘main’ account. (All linked to epic account)

How does this affect the workshop maps on Steam? If Steam is fully supported does that mean that all of the workshop maps are too? What about the creation of new ones in the workshop?

Originally posted by dannyapplesauce

For real. For anyone that is scamming items, $5 seems like a REALLY low bar to hop over to continue scamming.

Do Alpha rewards count as platform exclusive items? Or can I use them on my PS4?

Originally posted by Aluminizing

As an additional anti-fraud measure, we will also require both players involved in any trade to have purchased at least 500 Credits (players who played Rocket League before the launch of free to play are exempt from this requirement).

Is this limited to purchasing at least 500 credits worth of item(s) in-game (item shop / blueprints) or just purchasing at least 500 credits from your platforms store?

So similar to satisfactory on Steam?

If you don't want to make an account, it just uses your public steam id to log you on.

Will existing Steam PC users, after creating their Epic Games account, be able to trade with new free-to-play users who are on Epic Games PC?

Originally posted by SumoSizeIt

You will still have access to use the purchased DLC Packs on the platform where they were purchased. We are working to make Premium DLC accessible across platforms, but this will not be available when free to play launches.

Just to confirm because the caffeine hasn't kicked in:

I have premium DLC on PC (e.g. Batman, Back to the Future), and Xbox (Jurassic Park). At release, I won't be able to access Batman on Xbox and Jurassic on PC, but eventually that will be available, right?
