We're not sure what the logic is here, but Epic has lured gamers to its store with the⭕ announcement of a mega-sale, but it doesn't want them to go wild and splurge on as many games as possible.
According to a report from , some users have complained about their accounts being blocked while trꦬying to add to their purchases and have to wait for a reply from suppo🦩rt.
So getting as many items as one can while they're on the cheap is somehow not encouraged by Epic Games, aཧlthough you're probably more likely to succeed on that front if you take your time.
Epic claims the blocking of accounts is a ♊result of its anti-fraud protection. However, hardly anyone would look to make several separate purchases in succession if, say, there was a shopping cart. “This wa🌃s a result of our aggressive fraud rules,” senior PR for Epic, Nick Chester explains. “If players run into this issue, they should contact player support so we can investigate.”
Twitch stre𓃲amer Patrick Boivin called out the store on Twitter after having his account blocked. "Sorry but your account is blocked from making purchases," a notification read. "Please contact cust꧙omer service."
Boivin claims that he only tried buying five games, which is🔜n't that big of a deal considering there's a sale going on.
All of this could be solved with t🌺he implementati♛on of a shopping cart, and having to go through conversations with support simply because there isn't one has to be frustrating for gamers. Epic likely didn't consider how difficult the combination of an anti-fraud system and a non-shopping cart system would make life for customers looking to stock up on knock-down price titles.
For now, it appears that attempting to purchase more than five g🐓ames - even during a sale - triggers the store's fraud detection systems. The company's public roadmap does make mention of a shopping cart, but that is desc𝄹ribed as a "long term" goal that could be more than six months away.
Meanwhile, gamers aren't the only ones upset by the sale. A few publishers have pulled their games from the sale, with 2K notably leaving pre-orders of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Borderlands 3 out, which makes sense since hav🌟ing a game go on sale months ahead of its launch just can't be 𒉰good for business.
