If they're tradable currently and not paid (like Blueprint items, Crate items, etc), they're tradable on any platform you link to.

1) I can't tell if esports shop items are included under item shop purchases or not so could we get a confirmation that those items do transfer over?

2) So if my credits/tokens transfer over, can I buy items on the platform with the tokens and then use said items on a different linked platform?

Esports Shop Items are accessible from any linked platform, but cannot be traded to other players.

Credits do not transfer. But if you make a purchase, the items you get are accessible everywhere.

Example:

  • I have 1000 Credits on PS4. I cannot use/access these credits on Steam/Xbox/Switch, only PS4.
  • I purchase a G2 Decal from the Esports Shop with my credits.
  • I can now use the G2 Decal on a linked Steam/Xbox/Switch account

So if both my playstation and pc steam account have seperate inventories right now, I will be able to merge them if they are both linked to the epic games account? (except credits etc)

Also it says purchased items wont be able to be traded across platforms. If i trade credits for tw zomba on ps4 will i be able to trade those later on pc?

You will be able to access both inventories on any platform linked to your Epic Games Account. "Merged" isn't quite accurate, but both inventories appear combined when you're playing with linked accounts.

If you acquire a TW Zomba on PS4, it will not be tradable on Steam, because it is a paid item that was built/acquired on PS4.

all earned free items, well does this mean all non crate items can be traded cross platform, including the tw octane?

You cannot initiate a trade with a player signed in on another platform.

However, if you have a Titanium White Octane on your PS4 and link your Switch. You can launch the game on Switch and trade that Octane to another Switch user.

These are part of your online inventory on a platform, and will be usable on any other platforms you link to your Epic Games Account.

I assume if I linked a Steam, then unlinked it, then linked the 2nd, it wouldn't keep the inventory of the first, correct? It would only keep the inventory of the currently linked Steam?

The first Steam account's inventory would stay "with" the Steam account, meaning it would no longer be accessible from your Epic Account once de-linked.

You will need an Epic Games Account to play on Steam. However, you don't have to create a full account with personal info like email & password. When you boot Rocket League, you'll be able to create a new account that's only associated with your Steam profile with one button press, no additional info/setup required.

What about other items like black markets on an old account? Can these be used on the primary (steam) if they're currently on xbox?

Yes.

If I understand this, it's a massive relief, as someone who moved after playing console for multiple years and has now played on Steam for more than a year.

So we can link Steam + Playstation/Xbox to an epic account, choose steam as primary platform and keep playing on steam. Getting access to season rewards, rocket pass items and event stuff from my old PS4 account on steam.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is a slam dunk, bring it on. Can't wait to get my S1 crown back.

This is accurate

You'll get your Est. 2016 title regardless of which account is set to primary, as long as you link your Steam+Switch to the same Epic Games Account

So Steam and EGS will be two separate platforms? How will this affect cross-platform matchmaking? Surely, they would both count as PC and still be matched up together?

All PC platforms are considered the same for the purposes of matchmaking. If you turn off cross-play on PC, you'll still match with/against both PC platforms.

One question for you, u/Psyonix_Devin . Will I be able to link two Steam accounts to one Epic account? I gave my old Steam account to a friend who purchased his first PC (because it had many single player games on it), and created a new one. I have since recovered this account bc he stopped using it. I have a Grand Champion title on my new one, but I have my bronze s1 crown on the old one.

No, you can only link one account per platform to an Epic Games Account. So you could have a PS4 and a Steam account linked, but not two Steam accounts.

You can unlink your Steam account and link a different one, but they cannot both be connected simultaneously.

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.

This is our top priority right now.

(Not complaining either gave me a free div up!)

No, servers pull this kind of data the next time they spin up, not mid-match

Hi everyone,

After reviewing a wide range of replays submitted to us, we’ve decided to revert Demolitions & Bumps to how they worked pre-V1.78. This is live now, and does not require a patch.

The vast majority of replays we’ve reviewed have been working as intended. Most disputed cases were due to latency or the same subtle issues commonly raised before V1.78, like losing Supersonic speed the instant before impact.

However, a select few of these replays have helped us identify a new set of inconsistencies regarding the “Impact Location” we’re using to determine if a Demo should occur or not. While this was accurate enough in our testing (both internally and externally), with millions of demos occurring per day on Live servers, it’s become clear it’s not good enough yet.

We are discussing and investigating solutions, but while we do that, we think it’s better to roll Demos & Bumps back to their previous state.

I assume the 'default' vibration settings will still vibrate goal replays after a match? Nothing more annoying then running to get a beer after a match and the controller starts going nuts on my desk waking up the whole house.

We'll look at making this an option in a future update.

From the discussion thread:

Slider numbers to recreate legacy settings:

Light: 0.5
Medium: 1.8
Heavy: 3.0

To be extra clear, the old "Default" pre-changes is equivalent to 1.0 on the slider. You only need to change it if you preferred alternate settings in the old system.

Sounds like that might be the reason for this new thing that's happening where half of all new games now fail to load reading some error about not finding a map.... And then locking me out for 5 minutes because I abandoned a ranked match.

We identified an issue with Farmstead (Night) loading incorrectly on some platforms and removed it from rotation. If the issue persists, please let us know.

Will this include the light option as well?

No, for the purposes of the hotfix, it will only be Old Default (w/ constant boost vibration). To replicate the old Light setting, you will have to wait until we split the option into 2 options (Slider+Dropdown).

We will add a "Legacy" option in a hotfix build that restores the combo of the old "Default" intensity + always vibrating while boosting.

Longer term we will look at splitting this option into a slider (how intense) and a dropdown (when to vibrate - never, impacts, everything)
