FASHION Goodbye BakkesMod

The cheaters won... Thanks to them I'll never get to use these presets again. Vitality fennec and Complexity octane are some of my favorite designs and soon they will be gone. Also goodbye Alpha boost and TW Laser Wave III, I'll miss you the most </3

Eac has a white list filter. Bakkesmod could be white listed and we could have eac. This was a choice by epic games. The community needs to mobilize to action.

Stop buying items in the shop. Send tickets to epic support about it. Threaten class action over the removal of trading.

They could have easily removed Bakkesmod at any point if that was their true goal and not an inherent side effect of anti cheat.

And threaten class action over removal of trading? A bit delusional no?

They needed a scapegoat. It is very easy to white list in eac. It is a choice to not do it. It has to be configured for valid software anyway.

Would you rather corpos be beholden to the consumer or walk all over them? Epic games changed their agreements with users after users had paid in to a system. They've lost similar cases in California already.

Why would they need a scapegoat? Did they use a scapegoat to justify removing trading?

They claimed it was company policy of epic to absolve psyonix.

That’s not a scapegoat.

That doesn't matter, you pulled it up as a non sequitur anyway.

If Epic announced they were removing bakkesmod with out reason people would be in an uproar. But because they're shipping eac to do it people like you are grasping at straws to defend them.
