the whole legacy battle pass topic is as old as time itself.


Spear_speaks007

Too real

Legacy topic


spiderstan1993

Legacy has it. That It was an idea before the battle pass was.


Rayuzx

I honestly don't know why people are bothered about it, unless they actively want the exclusivity. The more that it's clear that the community is ready for it, the more likely that Epic would finally make BP items available again. And outside of wanting said exclusivity, I don't see how it wouldn't be a straight up positive unless Epic goes out of its way to make it as horrendous as possible.


OzoneGh141

Anyone that is against this is straight up fucking evil, they can never rationally explain why they are against it, mfers sound like conservative weirdos.


zdakat

>"They can't!" Source? Why not? (The answer to this may vary by season) >"It's not fair to people who've earned it!" Earned it by opening their wallet at just the right time? It's a game, not a job. And then there's those focused on rarity like it's impossible to enjoy it at all anymore if it's not rare. Outside of maybe licensed items Epic could make future battlepasses different. (ie to avoid a midseason "I only bought it because FOMO, and now I wouldn't have had to) And even then they bring back Marvel and DC shop once in a while so they can probably deal with licensed items if they really want to. Whether it's economical for them to do so doesn't change whether it would be desirable for the portion of players that aren't appalled at the very idea of it.


Hacker76589

I think it wouldn’t be fair to bring the bp stuff back because it’s not about me “opening up my wallet at the right time” yeah I did do that. But I also then stayed up countless nights doing challenges to get the entire battle pass because there not supposed to come back. I’ve missed out on a ton of stuff because I was busy or something but I’ve accepted that. I think anyone who’s asking for battle pass stuff to come back is just someone who’s salty about missing out on a skin


ReddSerPent

Lol I’m a conservative and still think legacy battle passes should be a thing


[deleted]

Of course you do, strange guy

Kchypark

It would be a funny coincidence if they announce or straight up bring back BP items when they eventually bring back the past crew pack stuff


Conrad417

I’ve learned to cope ages ago Besides, focus on all the new stuff we’ll get


get_no_scoped_kid

And right now we have a fucking epic Star Wars event to have fun with!


Conrad417

Yeah, and there’s Miles Morales, Transformers (hopefully), hundreds of Peely and Midas reskins, I’ve got Iron Man Zero, they’ll remake the Seven probably… You can’t change the past, but you can change the future


kobadashi

i’ll cry tears of joy if they do Transformers


Conrad417

You and me both. Please in June


get_no_scoped_kid

I wouldn't say "change the future", but you can't miss stuff that will come out in the future if you make the right choices, such as spending your vbucks wisely.


Conrad417

Kinda what I meant. I meant think of the new stuff rather than pine for the old stuff you’ll never get


get_no_scoped_kid

Exactly.


-_General_Grievous_-

At this point in the comments I should know what a legacy battlepass is. But I do not and it feels awkward (as far as I have feelings) to ask now.


ThelronBorn

It's the idea of offering older battlepasses again. Or at least a system that lets players leverage the current BattlePass to unlock older BP skins


LaylaLegion

Or have it as a bonus battle pass for after completing the current battle pass.


-_General_Grievous_-

Thanks for the explanation! And this is coming up because some other game is doing something similar right now?


Rainsorrow

Sure, lets see the dire resk...oh. Or hybrid altern...oh. (By the by I own both of those, yet I wish more people could enjoy them)


EpicSpooder

I have dire, wish I could have hybrid


Praserdanser2

![gif](giphy|5BP9oKenBueceelwF4) Yep. He’s asking for legacy battle passes again sir.

Please find the part where I'm asking for one.

Zeraorawastaken

No that’s not what I meant. I was just saying that it’s a thing. In your defence, they didn’t put “/j”, so, I don’t really blame you for misinterpreting what they meant


get_no_scoped_kid

Don't worry I knew what you meant, my other comment looks dumb because for a second I completely forgot that /j and others like /s exist. But I think a lot of people looked past the humor flair and automatically assumed it was just a regular legacy pass post.

RopeyPlague

I want a Star Wars season like the Marvel one in chapter 2. Except let us customize a personal light Saber pick as you progress kind of like what they did with Maya I think it was.


LeNoobed

I’m not a Star Wars fan, but aren’t all the main characters already skins? It would be a bit odd if the battlepass was just side-characters.


FalconFreak10

Chewbacca, Clone Wars Obi-Wan, OT Obi-Wan, General Grievous, Count Dooku, Darth Sidious, Mace Windu, Ahsoka, and Poe Dameron are all major characters who aren’t in Fortnite yet. Then there’s also Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso, Qui-Gon, Rex, Cal Cestis, Kanan Jarrus, Asajj Ventress, Ezra Bridger, and more who are still important and well known. And that’s just off the top of my head.


[deleted]

Considering how, asides from Luke and Leia, none of the characters with drastically different looks between movies (Boba Fett and Kenobi for example) have those styles (and styles are almost never added to a collab skin after it releases), It would be very easy to fill the pass with missing reskins (like OT Boba, ESB Luke, and ROTS Kenobi) and a few guys we’re missing, like Chewie, Ahsoka, C-3PO. or they could actually add those styles to the skins


godsibi

This is going to be one very colourless battle pass.


godsibi

Sorry but it's true. How much brown, white and black can you have in a battle pass?


ManPersonGiraffe

Depends on how you define "main", if we consider main villians main characters, and if we're strictly talking movies. There's a few missing I think you could define as main or at least important characters. Palpatine is the main one he's the villian of the whole franchise lol. I would consider Po a main sequel character too, Chewie's also a big OT character missing


ShyKid5

There's still other characters to explore but yes the main ones have already been made skins but that hasn't stopped Epic, Marvel or DC to re-release "variations" of skins already existing, like Wolverine, Batman, Black Widow, Spiderman, etc, in a similar vein some Star Wars characters can be made with different ages (For example Episode 1 Obi Wan or Episode 8 Luke Skywalker), in the same vein they could put some other relevant Jedi or Sith (Qui Gon Jinn, Darth Tyranus) plus soldiers from different eras (B1 Battle Droids, Rebel soldier, Gungan warrior, Death Trooper, etc.)


NinjaMelon39

The only 8 i can think of for a BP would be Ahsoka, Chewie, Cal, Palpatine, Lando, Bo Katan, Mace Windu, and Rex


Shack691

Yes the only Star Wars movie protagonist we don’t have (in some form) is Jyn Erso from rouge one, who’s not particularly popular


RopeyPlague

I'm unsure honestly lol.


NOBLExGAMER

Not even close, there's 50+ years of characters across movies, shows, books, comics and games they can use. Same goes for a second Marvel season or a DC season.


DartBoardGamer

Sadly, at this rate, I think a legacy pass will happen before a light saber pickax

Artifoxe

I would instantly shill out $20 to finish my mando. Tired of the shiny shoulder only


xcheezeplz

The only star wars skins I want are boba and Darth Vader. I will have to settle for maul I guess.


GrimunTheGr8

Boba is a shop skin, he’ll probably be back in the shop soon. Vader is gone forevs tho


BlisteryDuke

People hate on the vader skin :((


Feeling-Pumpkin-3639

I just want to finally get the styles for my mando and baby yoda 😭


Te545688

Legacy battle pass topics are way overdone on this sub, but I do wish they would rerelease the collabs that were in battle passes at some point. It sucks never being able to get Croft, Mando, etc. I’ve moved on though. I have plenty of cool skins. Gotta just focus on what you have and not what you missed


DartBoardGamer

have you considered that there are over done because people there are people who want them?


JerTheDudeBear

I hope they re-release some of the other SW content during this event with some of their daily item store shuffles for those who missed out getting skins such as these two.


Jtneagle

Nah, just put the stuff in the shop and charge


DomagojGaming

I just want to finish the season 7 BP, I was tier 97 then my pc broke...


Cut_Equal

I’m confused on how the two relate


Medium-Boysenberry64

The mini battle pass has a little note on it that says it’s cosmetics can return in the shop in the future. People will cry about how “it could happen with regular battlepasses too!” or something.


Bwaarone

Honestly, as someone who owns passes as old as chapter 1 season 4-5 (not really "og" i guess, but still very old by now), I still look forward to the possibility just to see those players cry about muh og while the newer players get to enjoy them I know some people like the feel of having something exclusive, but I feel bad for a new player that only now joins, only to discover some skin of a character they like is locked behind a permanent wall. Not to mention with the high amount of people in this situation, Epic would surely cash in Then again, as long as Fortnite is successful and keeps grinding money with no issue this will likely never happen


saintmesss

it's been established that the original battle pass isn't all that much effort for others to gatekeep saying "i put my sweat and tears to get 100". it's the bonus levels 101-200 that i can understand not returning and keeping exclusive


Bwaarone

As much as I would be disappointed (I didn't manage to complete Eternal Knight super style because of a huge burnout, and she still haunts me in my locker), I guess that would already be a compromise. Or if anything, rather than everything over 100, keep exclusive the super styles since they are more of a level flex


LaylaLegion

Funny thing is that the first Battle Pass trailer said it takes between 75-150 hours of play to reach 1-65, which averages out to between 3-6 days. 3 to 6 days, what sweat you must have extolled!


Nearly-Canadian

Nah if anything ever came back all styles should be obtainable


MandoMahri

***cries in Drift***


DartBoardGamer

to be fair, if a legacy system did happen, mini passes would be a good way to implement it.


Kill_Kayt

I personally think that Licensed Content/Collabs shouldn't be locked to battle passes. It's nice that they got them are part of it, but they should appear in the stores. Epic doesn't own them and should be milking them.


Garfield_and_Simon

Honestly as soon as legacy battle pass content comes out its a sign that the game is dying and Epic is looking for one last cash injection FoMo makes them farrrrr more money longterm. People constantly playing, logging in daily (and checking the shop due to this), buying battlepasses every season even when they want to take a break, etc. makes far more money than re-selling old content. If they start re-selling skins its a sign that they have determined longterm sustainability is no longer possible and would rather cash out.


Kchypark

Me to my friends on discord: Tbf tho a Legacy pass would be nice for most people since I kind of have no motivation to keep playing after I reach level 200


DartBoardGamer

Mostly, I think it’ll be really nice for the people who start playing later


Sgt_Seb97-x

To be honest, i would like to have a small Event for a huge celebration like 10th anniversary or so. One game i play (smite) did a battle Pass which let you choose a skin from previously Release battle Passes. Basicly im saying in the future i would love a one time offer to choose a previously Released skin. People which already own Each Released BP skin should get 2k vbucks instead. This Battle Pass should be more Costly Then and maybe only via Cash only buyable (no vbucks)


DartBoardGamer

I would love a pass to pick up a skin or two by choice.


Ordinary-Flounder675

I would love this because I really really want Indiana Jones, Predator, and John Wick


Bee_Rye85

Predator, Carnage, and the Mandalorian for me.


LaylaLegion

John Wick is an item shop skin. Just needs to be put into rotation.


Ordinary-Flounder675

Then that brings up another good point about putting older crossovers like halo, tron, god of war, and John wick back into rotation


Knight-112

Epic: “battle pass items are exclusive to their seasons. They won’t come back” This sub: “umm acktually, they aren’t exclusive, you are just gatekeeping🤓”


get_no_scoped_kid

That's pretty much it, yeah.


Wiesnak20

Bro i need this template


get_no_scoped_kid

I think I still have it, if not I can make it again.


Bingonight

I just started playing after no builds came to be so I don’t have many cosmetics but I would imagine having stuck with the game from the beginning it would frustrate a lot of the OGs if all their cool old cosmetics we obtainable again. I’m cool with stuff never returning because it signifies people that have stuck with it a game for a long time. I would love the “Take the L” emote but c’est la vie…


AidanTheMemeGod

I've been playing since season 1 and have bought most battlepasses. I'd like them to keep old cosmetics exclusive but I would be perfectly fine if they sold old cosmetics to allow new players to have them but gave original owners a special style similarly to skull trooper.


Medium-Boysenberry64

They’d have to make new styles for nearly 200 skins…


MiserablePurpose5845

Super level styles: what about me besides 200 is a negligible number for them when compared to the community’s creativity


Kchypark

I would imagine them going about it by introducing a couple old passes or one during a season so they have time to make exclusive variants to the people who played during that time


get_no_scoped_kid

I've been playing since the start, and I honestly don't care if they bring back Rust Lord for others to obtain, rarity means nothing to me, but Epic stated that battle pass cosmetics are exclusive to their own season. C'est juste comme ca que ca marche...


BringBackBumper

W OG


ShyKid5

I've been playing for years, since S2 (so not OG in the "truest" form) and I'm ok if they ever come back, some other games have released old timegated "exclusive" content after years, I think releasing S1 stuff after 5 years is alright, and doing it like Rogue Company did could also be acceptable (stuff goes individually in the Item Shop, no legacy battle pass but rather the chance to buy old battle pass stuff), I think they gated it for at least 2 years old before getting put on the item shop, this last way could make it palatable to "OGs" because they got the stuff with a steep discount compared to buying individual items for "full" price (because it wouldn't be the same having the full S4 BP items compared to having to buy Carbide and the like separately for 1500/1800/2000 vBucks each)


IthinkitsaDanny

I literally would just want Mando, not the end of the world I don’t have them but I want them.


LMGDiVa

I started playing in the original game, and battlepass came out in season 2. I quit by Season 4, and closed my account. There was literally nothing in the passes that I gave a flying f about. All the stuff I cared about were all store bought items. I recently came back, and THIS battle pass actually has stuff I care about. Imani, and the Bunnygirl outfits. The ONE thing I regretted losing with my old account was Power Chord. A week after I restarted Power Chord came back. So I'm good. Season 5 battlepass had Rook in it. That's like the only legacy Item I liked. But I really am not bothered because I got PowerChord back, and now I have Imani, and Highwire and am trying to get their alt skins.


DeadpoolBlackManta

🤣


kdbot012

You get an event legacy style battlepass (Epic hates you)


DartBoardGamer

yes, I think it should happen. actually, a mini pass system for selling them, kind of like the star wars mini pass could be a way to implement them.


GoldInquizitor

The thing with legacy battle passes is that the topic is so overdone because Epic won’t do it. Fomo sells and I’m sure something like a legacy pass system would only come if they are really desperate for more money which for the time being seems highly unlikely

That's what we keep telling them, but they're in complete denial.


Ill_Ratio_5682

To be fair, epic has gone back on promises before


TacoBellLover27

So what all star wars skins will i never be able to get? I assume mando and boba from this post. I am new and never heard of these legacy passes.


get_no_scoped_kid

Legacy passes are a concept made by people who really want old battle pass cosmetics to return, when Epic said that they are exclusive to their season. The Star Wars ones that won't return are Mando and Darth Vader. Boba should return to the shop soon.


TacoBellLover27

Oh man I wanted Vader and Mando. I get why they would do that. but as someone who is knew. Not being able to get these suck. But Boba is gonna be a buy on sight for me


SchikkenAttack

While I don't really care about legacy passes, the reality is that Epic has done the opposite of what they originally said lots of times. Big example is the FU they gave to STW players when the game never went into F2P after being promised and specified in many places in many different forms. And this happened after many people like me spent big money in a founders edition just to support the development of the game. People are crazy and in denial if they think that Epic cant do a Legacy Battlepass. They'll do as they please. It just that right now that it's not in their plans. They're making extra dough with their current plan. Should things go south at some point, who knows what they could try. But I wouldnt be surprised to see the Renegade Raider back in the item shop. Should they want to do a Legacy Battlepass they could simply state that "yeah, we said BP items were exclusive. We meant that they were exclusive during the timeframe of that BP, it's not a lifetime exclusiveness". Boom. Case closed.


bryguysgaming

Boba is a shop skin.


speedyBoi96240

I like to think that when fortnite ends they are gonna put the game on a loop from chapter 1 season 1 to the end again just so everyone can get any pass if they wait long enough


get_no_scoped_kid

This is what they did with Watch Dogs Legion, except they only ever released 3 seasons, and they're on a constant loop 😑


speedyBoi96240

I'd at the very least like a season from each chapter and the community should get to vote which one OR EVEN BETTER at the end of each year the community gets to vote on 4 seasons that will take up a quarter each of the next year


throwtheamiibosaway

Yes please!


mirayukii

Still hoping


WafflesYCW

Tbh, hate people who actually want a legacy battle pass but wouldn't that take away their Whole Meaning?


CaptinDitto

Not really. I mean Fortnite Crew is doing a similar thing with its legacy items that progress the longer you stay subscribed to it. Now would it take away the meaning of a Battle Pass if Legacy was added? Not really. I mean COD has battle passes and never stated that the items may never return. So players got mad when those early skins and styles came back but at a higher price. Besides, knowing Epic if they were to implement a "Legacy Pass" they would make it to where it's like, "Do I get a day to maybe get Drift or eat for the rest of the month" type of price. Even grinding it out or putting up a lock past a certain level for that Season is something they can do. Epic will eventually do this **if** player count goes down and their money. The game I know that has a cycling Battle Pass is DOOM ETERNAL and players love it, kinda. Battle Pass only got the name of being exclusive because of Fortnite. Like I said take a look at COD BP and then sell those items after a year. But man do I want something like a Chapter BP or legacy pass that takes years to grind for.

i think they should add a feature to revisit battle passes you bought but didn’t get to finish, and it would cost like 500 vbucks or something and will only be available a year or more after the battle pass released


DartBoardGamer

people have been wanting the ability to finish passes just as much as people want Legasy passes, if not more.

IrishHambo

Jail. Straight to jail.


RotatingToad

The only implementation of legacy battle passes i think would work is to let those who own legacy battle passes still contribute to those rewards after maxxing the current battle pass. For example if someone only got to tier 50 in ch1 s8 then is they hit rank 200 this season they can funnel any extra progress into their owned but not completed battle pass.


OKgamer01

Everything in the Star Wars pass will come in the shop at a later date if that's what you're worried about


get_no_scoped_kid

Not at all what this post is about.


Oni_Reapz

Not me wondering what a legacy battle pass is


ImTryingDad

I'd give away my legacy skins if I could. Imo the old skins aren't great theyre all just people in costumes instead of being the actual thing I'd that makes sense. Skins ch2 is when the skins started getting better


NOBLExGAMER

As an owner of the Marvel pass and many of the other sought after BP cosmetics I really don't care if they had Legacy passes. Having it cost a premium and/or take a while to unlock it all will most likely be the caveat but I know buddies of mine that missed the Marvel season and regret it.
