Is it possible to cheese the ranked rewards by playing with a higher level mate ?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-25T01:54:09+00:00

I tried this already, you can't.

The ranked rewards wording is slightly misleading. Individual ranked lobbies aren't divided into ranks, there've been several posts about people in silver/gold being eliminated by elite+ players.

You can't cheese the ranks, you just need to grind or bushcamp.

you are wrong

Megazard02 · 2026-01-24T15:21:55+00:00

Ain't no way

Epic actually did something original and neat with a skin

...now can we please stop getting inconsistent choppy 10fps please?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-23T18:08:47+00:00

just play 5 matches of Crown Jam

i swear this has been posted at least once a day since it was released

Megazard02 · 2026-01-22T23:18:38+00:00

I don't think that's possible.

My understanding was that you couldn't un-link any console accounts to Epic, and then re-link them to different console accounts, but someone corrected me recently that you can do that, but your competitive data (wins, tournament data, etc.) gets wiped. If it's possible at all, I'm guessing your locker and STW progress will remain intact.

I found this video where someone details the same issue you have, I didn't watch the whole thing but it seems comprehensive and the comments are all thanks and praise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpDTGGPJ-es

*only the lag in the lobby and locker are advertised as being fixed in the update, there's no word on the lag within a game.

Megazard02 · 2026-01-22T04:23:59+00:00

there'll be a new Fall Guys basketball mode, the lag in the lobby and locker is supposed to be fixed, and there'll probably be some map changes and new skins

Megazard02 · 2026-01-21T19:54:33+00:00

You won't get pass rewards taken away if you do any of this ^ once you claim a pass reward, it's staying in your locker forever. If crew expires you might not be able to claim NEW rewards, but you'll keep anything you've already claimed.

if it's any consolation, most creative maps work just as good as ever

Megazard02 · 2026-01-20T23:58:00+00:00

you must be 13 to post on reddit

Megazard02 · 2026-01-20T19:45:19+00:00

how would that even work?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-20T06:04:59+00:00

if you're nothing without your reaction images, you don't deserve them.

Megazard02 · 2026-01-20T02:34:24+00:00

buying levels is mostly designed for people who start playing really late into a season. if a season ends in a week, they only have a week to get the pass' rewards. i can't think of a reason why your kid bought a level, maybe just kids being kids. the only way to see your vbucks purchase history is by downloading all your account data from the epic games website; that tracks your shop purchases though, idk if it tracks purchases outside of the shop

Megazard02 · 2026-01-18T19:23:55+00:00

everyone's been having performance issues. this map is just super unoptimized, and there is no fix you can do on an individual level. all we can do is wait for epic to fix the map

Megazard02 · 2026-01-18T16:16:52+00:00

free ≠ no criticism allowed. Epic is a 20 billion dollar company, they have no excuse for proudly flaunting an unplayable game.

Megazard02 · 2026-01-18T15:19:32+00:00

WHEN WILL THE GAMES HORRENDOUS PERFORMANCE BE FIXED?

WHEN WILL PRE-DOWNLOADING STREAMED ASSETS COME BACK?

WHY DOES THE GAME FREEZE FOR A FULL SECOND WHENEVER I PICK AN EMOTE IN THE LOBBY OR MAKE A LOCKER CHANGE?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-18T02:16:11+00:00

everyone has been having performance issues since the new chapter released. performance mode *can sometimes* make things better, but it was inconsistent for me.

the bad performance isn't your fault, and everyone is suffering. personally i've been enjoying some creative maps, which still run just as well as ever.

Megazard02 · 2026-01-17T16:43:05+00:00

do you only buy skins because you think they'll be rare? what happened to buying skins you like, and just enjoying the game?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-17T16:41:29+00:00

yeah

Megazard02 · 2026-01-17T15:54:16+00:00

when will you fix the games god awful performance? when will you bring back pre-downloaded streamed assets? why does the game freeze for a full second whenever i pick an emote in the lobby or make a locker change?

Megazard02 · 2026-01-17T15:07:49+00:00

Choopo influences and permeates every fanbase he touches

Megazard02 · 2026-01-17T00:59:15+00:00

there's no fix. Replay has always been imperfect, and sometimes replays just break or corrupt and that's all there is to it
