Is this game still as popular? I have not played it since August 2019 when Epic removed it from Steam.
It has seen better days. But, Psyonix shot themselves in the foot by taking exclusivity with Epic and even allowing themselves to be bought out by Epic.
I play every blue moon, but I can't care anymore since it's too easy to get banned and Psyonix sucks the cocks of not only Epic Games, but elitist players.
They never removed it from Steam? I've been playing it on there since 2015. If you bought it there, you have it. Even works on Linux with Proton.
You know what they meant.
Removed from Steam store so unavailable for purchase. Those who bought it prior will retain access until Epic says fuck you.
Right. If you bought it there you have it there. And the person I replied to obviously bought it there, so it shouldn't be removed for them. Context, right?
I doubt Epic will remove it from Steam though. That'll be the day they really kill their user base.
It needs an Epic account for online play, right?
Granted, yes. But after you hook that up, you basically don't have to touch Epic again. No re-logins ever required. 👍
I stopped when they kept banning me for quitting a game because it would not connect my friend either.
It’s still decently popular with an active esports scene. It had a resurgence just a couple months ago when some big variety streamers like Jynxzi and critikal played it.
If you bought the game on Steam before it was removed, you can still play it through Steam (it’s what I do)
But you need Epic account to play it, right?
Idk dude I'm still playing it on steam pretty regularly? Ive got some weird auto-generated username which I guess comes from an epic account made for me but I never had to do anything it just works fine
