Honestly I see why they don't. The downside of communicating with us is that it builds up our expectations. Suddenly everyone is expecting the specifics things they wanted but when they see what epic actually meant they get disappointed.
There's no downside. We clearly failed to communicate information that was important to you. We can do better.
We're here. We missed the boat on clearly sharing the delay and seasonal gold details. That's on us and we're sorry. No excuses. We simply have to do better than this.
No, you pick your hero at the beginning of the mission (kind of like a moba) and you play that character til the end off the mission. So you wouldn't be able to swap back add forth.
Just wanted to confirm this is correct in terms of how the game functions. You select from your roster of heroes prior to the start of each mission. As for OP's scenario, as someone else pointed out you can reach anything with any class by building.
No, I've posted without issue so far.
The way it should be working right now is anyone who has a Founder's Pack should be able to post. Anyone can view, but we've limited posting to players who are part of Early Access to make sure we are focused on giving them the best experience, that feedback comes directly from them, etc. If you're in with a pack and can't post, let me know and I'll make sure we figure out what's going on.
Pardon the simple question but ... How does one post in this forum? As the strongest Constructor ever, I should introduce myself.
Is posting still off for a bit longer?
Players who will be a part of Early Access and logged in should be able to post.
Do you know if Sony is gonna get preload? It's still not up in US Sony store and support said they have no directions to do a preload.
Still working on that one. I'll check in again in the morning and see what I can find out. I want to preload too!
Can we open up discord too, or will that not happen until tomorrow?
Will likely be tomorrow.
This community is growing so fast and I love it!
Thanks for taking a chance on us. We'll do everything we can to keep packing it full of awesome!
NDA lifts tomorrow but won't actually be able to play until the 21st. (Mostly big YouTubers and streamers will have the game to play tomorrow or already recorded footage)
There will be some of those folks, but the general rule is anyone who played in Alpha and also has a Founder's Pack can play tomorrow.
Read moreThats okay. I think iv found a way using electronic visa gift cards. Although they are region specific. (As a Canadian i would be unable to give an American a visa gift card in USD without first having a US bank account.) They also seem to have an online only purchases requirement to them.
Anyway, both my friend and I are Canadians so its no big deal. There is a small fee on the card while purchasing it for him. All I needed to send the card was his email, his name which would need to be a perfect match on his epic account (to avoid problems) and he should be good to upgrade the standard edition himself since it functions like a normal visa card does. (You'd have to make sure the cost in Canadian is enough to cover the exchange to USD though when loading the card. Or I guess find one pre-loaded in USD with enough to cover tax.)
If anyone is in a similar position just saying this was our solution. Its a little less fun then "surprise its a deluxe account" ...
You are a good friend!
Just wanted to mention we're still chasing this and that I haven't forgotten!
seems like they where just getting ready to make it public but they did not put it visible on the tabs yet when your in other tabs. So they where about to make this office you just caught them before they did lol nice.
if you noticed they started to post the basic rules and every thing this morning 6-9 am
We made them public in the last hour but started making those posts earlier in the day before we put them online. :)
/u/raczilla Do you have any plans to allow people who purchased the Limited Edition (Or I guess the soon to be announced Ultimate Edition) to upgrade the copies which are being gifted to their friends?
Example: Instead of giving Joe a standard copy you upgrade it to a Deluxe version for them? (Then gift it)
Sometimes you know a friend won't be able to afford an upgrade but would probably appreciate one. Especially if everyone else in your circle of friends is running around with extra bling. Sometimes its nice to spoil friends <3
If anyone else reading has "creative" ideas on how to do this without breaking TOS I'm all ears.
This is a cool idea and I love that we have players who want to help out friends this way. Unfortunately, right now this isn't something we've got specific functionality to support.
Thank you Raczilla, I just wanted to let you know how much it means to have an Epic team member give the community some answers. I hope Epic decides to keep this going after launch too :)
We're not going anywhere!
Raczilla its much appreciated that you guys get the info out to us like this in the community, thank again!
We love you guys!
As someone at work, any one got time to look through and give insights if the pack has Images of characters, weapons or GUI for systems we hadn't seen much of yet?
What we've got here is fairly basic, but let us know the things you'd most find useful and we'll continue to add more over time.
We're doing everything we can to make sure things run smoothly. If we run into any challenges or things break, will fix them ASAP and keep everyone updated while we do so. See you all soon!
We're in touch with an awful lot of streamers/creators, many of whom have played in the Alpha and are already members of our community. If you're someone who is consistently creating Fortnite content, please let us know!
I just meant that the interview would have been more interesting if you could ask more specific questions, like 'What was the most memorable moment you experienced' or 'Who is your favorite hero (not class) and why?' - Things that could conflict with the NDA now, but would be super interesting.
Hopefully you didn't take my original post as negative criticism, I'm really looking forward to the next interview.
Not at all. I think we may already have the second one in progress (it takes us a couple of days to localize the content into different languages before we post) but I'll pass on the feedback to the person who is working on these.
