Scam artists

Sold me a product I did not receive, and then refused to give me a refund, support was very rude and slow.
Luckily I payed with PayPal, PayPal refunded my money for product not received.
Lesson learned: pay with Paypal, and don't buy stuff from epic games Store.

So much fun I would’ve read this game way more higher than it is but one problem why the funk do you keep the Halloween skins in for two weeks after Halloween but then one day after the Super Bowl you’re like you know what funk football I’d rather be Mexican and remove the skins I am so mad I was about to buy a football skin, but whomp whomp they remove the skins. I am very frustrated about this.😤😤😤

Account Hacked No Help

I have been using Epic Games for a few years now, to the point of having over three hundred games with them. I recently got hacked, my account was transferred to a different email address even though I have 2fA. Trying to recover the account has been a nightmare, I talked to robots most of the time then when I get a human they are reading from a hym sheet. they give me instructions I follow said instructions and it turns out I can't do that because I need a code which I don't have, I return to ask for a code and I am shut out for twenty four hours because I have already talked with support.

This is unreal over three hundred games gone, three hundred, I will never go back to this nightmare of a platform. this is why steam is the best company to deal with. I am honestly so sad and annoyed. but looking at the rest of the reviews I am not surprised.

Dear epic games I would love a Fortnite collaboration with smallville

Dear Epic games on the shooting game Fortnite I would love for you to do a collaboration with the 2000s show Smallvile. Of course if you do this collaboration I suggest the skins to be Clark Kent, Lana Lang, Chloe Sullivan, Pete Ross, Lex Luthor, and green arrow. I also believe that if you introduce Smallville to Fortnite it might spark new audience. Anyways I would love for you guys to do this collabaration with Smallville if not I completely understand. But then also I would love to say I love the platform Epic Games I play a lot of the games you have created daily and just want to say thank you .

Awful, anti-competitive company

Awful company, awful gaming platform and anti-competitive business practices, such as forcing PC games to be exclusives to their platform. Rather than improving their service, they condone frivolous lawsuits against their far superior competitors. Disgusting and I have deleted my account, despite the fact that I have lost money on digital software as a result.

EPIC, we need to talk!!!

Can't retrieve old account because AI doesn't understand and gives the run around.
Can't enter a Zero Build tournament yet I far exceed all requirements and qualifications. I had to set up 2 different email for this stupid 2FA to qualify for tournaments yet still can't enter them. Why doesn't EPIC tell what more is required to enter, (skins, turn on ranked mode prior of entering,....etc)
But then sends me to a BR tournament to which I DONT BUILD, just to humiliate me when sweats kill you as soon as you land.
I shot an opponent 7 times in the head yet I'm full heath and shield they one shot me with a grey gun and I'm dead.
AND ENOUGH WITH THESE BOTS!!!!!
And put pc with pc's and console with console. They get 25 bind keys on pc yet we get 8 on controller. How's that fair? Maybe send everyone a survey about common issues with this fortnite game and LISTEN to the people. It's not one or two people stating this but everyone has the same senses to these issues.
Try doing a PG13 mode for these kids and do a R rating for us grown ups so we don't need to listen to these screaming kids.
So much more needs to be said but there's not enough time in a day to explain ALL of these issues.

More to be said later. WAKE UP EPIC!
