In case anyone wants to know what Tim Sweeney said, it was the following: "I think platform companies should state their principles up-front and stick to them. The problem is in acquiring a large user base then transitioning from generous principles that users assumed were permanent to greedy new principles. It’s ultimately a bait-and-switch."

To be honest I've never traded even once in thousands of hours of play so I won't miss it, but I am still concerned though because it just feels like the game is in an overall dive. For like a year it's just been grind ranked and sometimes they might actually put in a fun LTM that you only see for a few days and then not again for months. The thing that has kept me wanting to play has been the Esports/content creators but even that is starting to get stale for me. I wouldn't mind the lack of content if we had updates for UE5 but its just getting hard to believe that its anywhere near done. I get epic is a business and they want money but it just isn't sustainable for them to remove features while pushing profits.

As some one with small kids who don't play RL as much as I do. I give a lot of items to my kids. I have been rocking the same octane huntress and Infinium's for about 3 years now. I don't change my car at all. My kids love getting the spoils and I wont be able to give them the tradable stuff I get. That being said, trading is a liability. People get their accounts hacked, lose their stuff, or get in some bad shady trades. Removing trading removes that. It also removes the need for support staff to assist hacked accounts in restoring their items. Pysonix could save hundreds of thousands in support staff by removing the feature and if your account gets hacked your stuff remains intact. I understand it will destroy the trading community that has setup a websites and services to sell items in-game but honestly... No one is obligated to keep another industry up at their own detriment.

The look on his face when I told him to give me 3 sets of wheels for credits and I actually put up Dueling Dragons in titanium white and that hideous animated decal. You can't put a price on it...

I know the majority of this video was satire however the response of a lot of the players you talked to do not represent the entire player base. A lot of players around GC aren't as invested in items and trading because their focus is on improving. I myself can relate to the sentiment as when I used to play I primarily focused on competitive usually sitting around GC1 - GC2. Despite this I still loved the trading and items as it spawned a whole side of the community that was there to have fun. It was a break from grinding ranked and to indulge in human interaction between peers and friends to talk about the exciting nature of items. This is all gone after 5th Decemeber. And I know that a lot of people who said they didn't care about trading, or items, or crates will find themselves romanticising the days when these features shaped the community.

One of the responses to the tweet said they were hoping for trading to be replaced with an in game auction house so you could set up trades and they could get accepted anytime with no risk of scam since the trades would be set up in advance.

I stopped caring about items when they removed crates and keys. There’s no fun in just buying an item for its price. It’s pricey! But when gambling, you could get an expensive item for a low cost. If not, you can trade with someone for something you like. Or trade various normal items in-game for a better one and such. But now there’s no point. I would care for the Rocket Pass subscription if there were crates and keys, otherwise, not spending a dime on the game anymore.

Moronic tone deaf take Every content creator on the platform has a $5000 boost. Do you think they all "fooled themselves" into thinking it was worth that much, or do you think Epic is just taking this money away from them now for no reason? It's like arguing CSGO skins were a waste of money and just "fooled" the player base into thinking they had value. Like how dumb can you be? My inventory would probably be worth like $25 and I have never had any plans to sell, so this does not affect me monetarily in any way, and even I can see how stupid this take is.

I agree that the real value of the game is in its gameplay. However, this is clearly not what Epic believes, or they would release updates that would improve the gameplay experience. It's clearly only about the $$$$$

What is actually sad is a bunch of players don't understand the impact it will cause to the game, being selfish and saying "it doesn't matter for me" while a portion of the playerbase will leave the game killing rocket league even more. The whole purpose of trading is to get a cool item and use to play, now everyone will have to wait countless days for the item they want to appear in the shop and it will be overpriced.

Giant corporations aren’t stupid, they know that the content creators are the smallest audience and the overwhelming vast majority of players don’t care and will just buy things from the item shop. Epic will deliberately kill half their player base to make an extra 5% in sales…they don’t care at all about perception. Gaming companies are the root of all evil.

Sunless you gave me a heart attack bud I say this with the utmost respect hoping to convey trust and love for you and your content I watch tons of RL content but yours tends to be my favorite for information To have an unusually extended portion about them removing training after already hearing from multiple creators about them planning to remove trading was predominantly and likewise intensefyingbly frustrating It immediately made me believe it had happened after it continued for so long and all I wanted to do was uninstall the game and never look back without finishing the video It genuinely felt like it was the end of RL for me Maybe the intensity at which the bit felt real was magnifying how scared I’ve become for Epic Games and their decisions on the game I may never know But Sunless, from one of your forever fans and all time supporters that was mean lol Love you man Please don’t scare me

Instead, Epic adds a store and now wants to get rid of trading. They said screw the player base economy, lets get as rich as we can. On top of that, the majority of good items you can get from drops are stuck behind the stupid "blueprint" paywall. Epic portraying greed at it's finest.

We've all seen the news, and are quite annoyed with what's happened about trading. It seems they want to introduce cross game ownership which seems like the nft space a little and how they want to have the ability for nfts to jump to different games, however I think they have done this becuase people aren't buying a 2000 credit item when they can get it on the trade market. Personally I think they should keep trading but have it in game only, which would also such for the 3rd party conpanies however add a tax when trading items, kinda like the grand exchange in runscape. Thoughts?
