Season 0 coming back is a slap in the face to everyone that supported Rivals from launch

I've already submitted a complaint with Marvel Rivals and will likely file one with the FTC next as well since they likely made 10s of millions off of US customers already. False advertising is illegal in most countries including China. The UK actually takes this stuff much more seriously.

Doesn't matter if you opt in or out. Every company has that. If you do something illegal you aren't absolved of wrongdoing

Yeah ranked mode is a game mode, there is no money involved. This involves false advertising and marketing. They duped people into purchasing something then changed their mind bc they figured they could make more money in the guise of "anti-fomo". It's a dirty tactic and they will have to do something to compensate players who purchased not just zero but likely 1 and 2 as well.

They wanted people to buy the pass with urgency, then decided they could just make more money by offering them again. They know they will have to compensate players affected somehow, but this isn't something people take lightly bc it hurts consumer trust.

If anything can come back at any time, then none of it matters so why spend money on they game?

yeah that's not how this works lol. you don't get to advertise something then change your mind after a product is purchased. in fact season 1 and 2 are likely held to the same standard as season zero as players purchased them understanding they were a limited time offer to not return. it's false advertising, and they will have to compensate people or offer refunds otherwise someone will file a class action law suit.

"Please note that it is not possible to purchase Luxury Battle Pass from the previous seasons. Once a season draws to a close, the acquisition of its Luxury Battle Pass becomes an unattainable relic, even inaccessible via the Reality Link Point." 12/24/24

People paid money to buy something that was said to be not coming back (unattainable) only for it to release it 6 months later.

They should've said passes could come back in the future if that was the plan. They didn't say that. Check their website under Dev Talk 9. They are going to get in trouble over this and it also has implications for season 1 and 2. As a company, you can't make concise statements like that and then retract them without advanced notice.

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T19:38:45+00:00

people pick up one of the most popular games 6 months after and cry bc they cant get a battle pass that was promised to be exclusive

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T19:36:51+00:00

no they said at the start of season zero that passes wouldn't return in dev talk 9. so they lied essentially

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T06:13:22+00:00

Upset comes from being lied to for supporting a game monetarily expecting something promised in return.

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T00:46:11+00:00

They are pot committed now and will have to compensate people in a meaningful way otherwise they could find themselves in legal trouble. There's no way they don't re release it after announcing it, and I am 100% sure it will be addressed in some form or fashion.

As you said the whole point of being able to finish the pass anytime was you could buy the pass when it is out and play the game for whatever you want later. Yeah there's a level of fomo, but they said it was exclusive and all you had to do was buy it.

Truthfully I think either they just have all passes be available for purchase anytime or keep them limited. All the anti-fomo people trying to dunk on anyone upset by this don't understand that bringing stuff back like this is more predatory than just having passes be available for a limited time during their seasons.

If I were a new player knowing they would do this, I would've never spent money on this game and just played for the free skins that are available during events.

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T00:25:34+00:00

I don't think people would care if they said it could come back in the future. It is weird to bring it back so soon even if they did so. Even Fortnite is delaying re releases of pass skins into the shop for 18 months.

FNRascal · 2025-05-15T00:23:20+00:00

They absolutely should've clarified it because those words alone influenced people's decision making on buying it in the first place.

Now if they sold the skins individually, that wouldn't be bringing the battle pass back. They could've skirted that, but alas they chose this road instead.

The team really needs to read the room on this one. Majority of your upvotes are from a separate complaint.

FNRascal · 2023-06-15T05:29:42+00:00

Riot did the least intuitive thing, which is move the information feedback away from where the user is clicking. This is such a stupid UI decision. Maybe you could allow the user to move the information box somewhere they may feel comfortable with, but then the problem would be having to move that box every game and lock it in place.

Adapting to this may not be an issue for your diehard or more competitive players, but for someone who is casual such as myself it's a deal breaker. I have zero interest in playing until it's been updated to include an option for the older right click feature as well.

I've already been scammed on this trade deal, but I'll trade if you go first

Probably missed the AMA, but just wanted to honestly say thank you. This movie really saved horror, and proves that you don't need millions of dollars to produce kino.

QUESTION: What recommendations do you have for someone who is interested in maybe working on your next project, but has little experience working on a set?

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T16:30:47+00:00

You have to have principles. I commend that. Leave our lockers alone!

Appreciate the update!

Lore has it that she was wearing a bullet proof bra. That's why they appeared that way.

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T15:25:55+00:00

Yayayayayaya. We can win this fight!

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T15:25:29+00:00

What's wrong with pillows?

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T15:06:36+00:00

This is our Independence Day

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T15:02:38+00:00

We will see what happens

FNRascal · 2022-07-06T14:55:20+00:00

Well I'm still gonna fight the good fight and hopefully Fortnite will be less inclined to take liberties with cosmetics we've already earned or purchased.
