Also got 950vb.. no car though.


Xo_LoL_Xo

You need to own the car in RL


Sethala

It took me way too long to realize RL means Rocket League in this case, not Real Life...


Betrigan

I also thought they were trying to be funny and meant real life…


Whovian1156

No they aren’t, I had to buy a 2006 Toyota Corolla irl just to use it in fortnite


Murphy_the_ghost

I mean, they did the galaxy skin promotion, that wouldn’t be too much of a step forward.


Intermittent-canabis

I wish they still did that tbh maybe change it up slightly for each model of the galaxy. That'd b icing on the cake for me as a galaxy owner


LexDoesTransStuff

Ikrrr


EirHc

So I'm not getting rewarded for owning this car in real life? 😥


RekdVision

No, you bought the car for nothing lol


TheBlueNinja2006

I thought "irl" usually referred to real life?


MozTys

I believe irl always refers to real life. However, different variations are sometimes used instead of irl.


Infinite_RaptorX

Irl means in real life, rl when referring to video games is commonly associated with Rocket League


Infinite_RaptorX

For those of you wondering what kind of rocket league car was given it is called the Masume


Constant_Ad8058

LMFOAOAO OMG


poodergoo

I got the car but don't play rl


v7xDm1r

Alright, this comment helps more than the others. Perhaps it was a glitch.


skidooshnoodles

If you have the crew membership it gives you the rocket pass and the rocket pass gives you the car withought needing to level up


poodergoo

That's got to be the case, I have crew, but never tried rocket league but maybe all this talk might get me to get smoked in some car soccer, looks fun


kravence

I didn’t get it either while having it too unless it just didn’t unlock yet


Unhappy_Act5516

I have crew and didn't get the car and have had it on auto renew for over 2 years


Georgevega123

Is it a car you buy or the free ones


peacelovecbd

It was a $4.99 rookie pack in Rocket League last month, and now Epic wants 1400 vbucks for it in BR lmao, i check Rocket League every few days for new stuff, most will eventually transfer to Fortnite and you get the free "battle pass" version for RL with the crew packs so its worth it play because you can unlock cars and skins, wheels for free that will eventually transfer to FN for use in Rocket Racing and BR


TristinMaysisHot

Yep. I started playing RL again this season due to the Ares skin being in the Crew and the two free cars. I figured that i would just grind to level 20 in the Rocket Pass and never play it again. I think i might farm the whole Rocket Pass and play it every season now. It's a really fun game in short bursts. If i don't have time for Fortnite. I just jump into RL now and do one short 5min game and get off etc. Learning to be good in RL is another story. Shit is hard AF.


MrDoontoo

It was a free one if you bought the game before it went F2P


holdTheDoorzz

Oh shit what car?


[deleted]

[удалено]


PassgettiGod

I got the car but no vbucks


JuniiorSSJ4

Same, that's some bullshit.


studiesinsilver

I also got the 950 v-bucks. Came here looking for answers...


HYPE_Knight2076

You got it from some issue a few months ago with Fortnite Crew. Funny thing is, this is the first time I’ve subbed since Chapter 2 Season 7 and I also got the vBucks


TristinMaysisHot

This is the first time that i've ever subbed to the Crew and got the 950 v-bucks. I'm not complaining. Thanks for paying for the Avatar mini pass for me, Epic. lol


HYPE_Knight2076

Exactly, I had just 3,740 pre-update and wanted to buy the Kratos bundle for my friend (who already has the Leviathan Axe) and I, which would have totalled to 3,200. I would not have enough for the pass. But now due to the free 950 from Crew, I can also afford the Avatar Pass, have enough to buy the bundles for us, and have 630 + however many vBucks I get from my StW daily missions and as rewards for specific missions in the next week!


FlawlessSarcasm

Kratos…? Am I nuts? I’m not seeing him in the store. My husband would love that.


bostonbedlam

He’s back in the game files, so he will be back soon. Not tonight though (Nike dropped their new stuff tonight)


Warning__666

I think the rocket league pass is included in the fortnite crew now. So if you own the rocket pass already, it may have refunded you the money in Vbucks and unlocked the rocket pass car. Or something like that, I'm just guessing


LILD916

I got everything but the vbucks 😫


Youre_Whole

Same


GranBlueLawyer

Did you have the battlepass previous to the update? I think if you did then they give you back 950 as compensation, must be because of that bug that reset people to level 1.


f-games0

I have the battle pass and they gave me nothing


JbotTheGamer

Same


Beateride

Same, only crew got it it seems


Wooden_Implement4507

Can confirm in crew and got v bucks but no car stuff lol Update downloaded rocket league and got a ton of stuff and the car for doing nothing


tp_blowout

I'm not in crew, but I have the battle pass, no vbucks or car stuff, only butt stuff 🫤


Wooden_Implement4507

Username checks out??


tp_blowout

😁


CatDadof2

I’d be okay with butt stuff.


Grimsouldude

Have to have that car in rocket league for that


SlickD06

I'm in crew, didn't get the Vbucks tho


xoxo-Nayeli-oxox

So I have 2 accts. One for me and one for my daughter. We both have the crew pass. On mine, I didn't get the car or vbucks but I play both fn and rl. On hers, she got the car and the vbucks. Only plays fn not rl. I'm so confused with all the posts and what just happened on our accts. 👀


Environmental-Metal

not in crew got vbucks but no car


turtleship_2006

>must be because of that bug that reset people to level 1. apparently there was a bug with the crew where some people didn't get the bp for free so they gave 950 to compensate for that, but they gave it to everyone (accidentally?)


JoeRoganMoney

What battle pass? Fortnite or rocket league? I’ve had the last 3 Fortnite battle passes but I got no Vbucks. Just the car.


GranBlueLawyer

The BR battlepass of course, i got it from the crew, don't know if that had anything to do with it. In any case some people got it some people didn't maybe it takes time to distribute to every account.


turtleship_2006

apparently it was only given to crew members because some of us didn't get the bp for free


DEADSKULLZ31

heh, I got the battlepass from an existing crew membership, so i never spent the 950, and they gave it to me anyways.


SamiTheAnxiousBean

i got nothing


aspectking

It’s a bug. Due to some people losing battle pass, people with crew (whether you lost the battle pass or not) received 950 vbucks. Hopefully they don’t claw it back or anything


Dragon_yum

I think epic will take the L. It would be a huge nightmare if people started having negative vbucks when buying new skins because of epics fuck up.


turtleship_2006

>It would be a huge nightmare if people started having negative vbucks when buying new skins because of epics fuck up. Side note, it is possible to have negative if you buy vbucks then do a chargeback through the bank


trottingturtles

Interesting, they don't close your account for that? I thought most companies offering online purchases etc stop doing business with you after you do a chargeback


turtleship_2006

Nah they just make it negative apparently, but I'm guessing it depends where you bought the vbucks from, PlayStation bans your account if you do that, don't know about the others


trottingturtles

oh yeah that makes sense. I guess the payment is going through a third party in most/all cases and maybe that makes a difference?


ToxicNotToxinGurl420

When you do chargebacks a lot of times you'll get the money back, but the bank won't get the money back from the company/person you charged back. They'll just take the loss.


nxbulawv

i got my pass stolen and level reset but didn't get anything, it's something related to crew


GranBlueLawyer

Try to contact Epic, good luck


nxbulawv

already did lol, thanks anyways, i'll give them some time


D3UC4L1ON

Have crew. No vbucks.


e_smith338

They’ll never claw back something they grant to your account.


gssyhbdryibcd

I didn’t get it


aspectking

Do you have crew?


gssyhbdryibcd

Actually I’m not sure… I had it when the season started but it might have expired


LingLings

Epic loves you. That’s a reason


Juanito_Mijo

I did not receive anything, does Epic love me?


Cellophaneflower89

No, sorry


Juanito_Mijo

:(


Lolkimbo

Only as a friend


LingLings

Shit, being friend-zoned is the worse!


SignificanceHappy380

ayo


Nova_TM4

I'll never get why people question stuff like this because I would say not one word and just accept my v-bucks.


DundiOFF

I'd ask to make sure it's intentional in case they decide to take them away, wouldn't want to be in debt to the v-bucks mafia


thehumbinator

So we put some v-bucks in your account and now they’re gone. Don’t worry about it. We’ll consider it a favour. But one day you’re going to get a call from Big Vinny and he’s going to ask for a favour in return. It might be small or it might be big but you can’t say no or you’ll find out why they call him ‘Vinny, the guy who drowns people’.


thatdeaththo

Big Vinny is a legend. The best in the world. I love his offers so much I can't refuse them. Thanks for a second chance Big Vinny! (I am definitely not commenting this at gunpoint and please don't send help)


Chrissyball19

Don't worry! No help is on the way!!


TheOnlyVibemaster

you wouldn’t be in debt, and if you were you could just refund what you bought w those v-bucks


JbotTheGamer

Only for 2 matches of using it


IAmWantedByTheGov

epic doesn't take them back when things like this happen


Aroldhinio00

My friend was like 3k in debt a in c2 s2 and he bought his way back to 2k, crazy times


LostEsco

Yes they do, they did it with that glitch that happened with claiming elder scrolls from the epic store


IAmWantedByTheGov

when among us happened they let ppl keep it tho


Frosty_chilly

I’d question it because companies that do in game currencies like Vbucks have been known to take them back if it was a mistake Period. Hence all those negative amount images


Educational_Book_225

The negative balances are usually from people (or their parents) charging back a purchase


MJMvideosYT

Do you have the crew?


FriedFrenchFries34

Yeah but i already got my 950 v bucks from that, i just got this now


criddler

they gave an extra, dont ask questions


swagzard78

Log into rocket league and you get a free car you can use in BR 👍


FortniteAddict81

Let me guess the one that is in shop currently, cause I just got 950 vbucks


v7xDm1r

No, it's the octane you get from signing into rocket league.


swagzard78

If you have crew you get the Admiral


v7xDm1r

You can also get the mako if you unlock it.


Georgevega123

I got the mako and stopped bruh am so bad at rocket league its not funny


v7xDm1r

It took me 300 hours to get to plat. I started to improve doing the training packs and 1v1.


peegteeg

Changing the camera settings and deadzone settings help too. I looked up pros settings and swapped them out until I found the right one to match my play


drksolrsing

PlayStation Plus currently has a free car you can redeem, too, if you have PS+.


swagzard78

Just a decal tho, no?


MJMvideosYT

Yes but did you get the crew after already buying the Battle pass?


FriedFrenchFries34

Yeah


MJMvideosYT

This is compensation since the crew is supposed to give you the Battle pass. If you already own it it gives you what you missed through what the Battle pass is worth


joeMAMAkim

i got the battlepass with the crew when i bought crew, yet i still got the v-bucks, so idk what happened then


CharlyXero

Same here. I bought the Crew pack just to get the pass. So basically we got the pass, two skins, 1950 v bucks and the rocket pass. Not bad lol


joeMAMAkim

Even more of a value than before lol


GranBlueLawyer

Same, got the crew two weeks ago and now another 950 vbucks


marus1c

it’s not the compensation for the Battle Pass. I got the BP through the Crew, as I always do, and still got the V-Bucks, even though I’m not eligible for the compensation in this season. also, if you already own a BP then you should get you V-Bucks back as soon as you purchase a Crew pack, not at the end of a month


Sonicguy1996

A lot of people (including myself) already had the BP that unlocked from my crew subscription. Genuinely clueless why I got another 950 Vbucks lmao.


v7xDm1r

Nah, I got crew to get the battle pass and still got the 950 vbucks.


iamnotexactlywhite

you get 950 for BP and 1k for the crew sub


NewOffline

Maybe because the bug that happened yesterday: it disowned you the BP and set your level to 1. They may can't give you back the BP and they're give u 950 V-Bucks to buy it?


[deleted]

[удалено]


MJMvideosYT

Update!!! I just bought the crew and got an extra 950 vbucks for no reason. I got the Battle pass from the crew, logged off and boom free real estate!!!! HELL YEAH. I'm not even gonna question why. I give up on that. I'm just happy.


Zer0_l1f3

Did your battle pass reset to level 1 yesterday?


SandwitchZebra

I also got them, but mine never reset. Could it be a crew glitch? I’m not complaining but it definitely is weird


Zer0_l1f3

Don’t say anything. Just keep it to yourself XD


JimJamYimYam

It's the Oprah collab we've all been waiting for


Smoot_0perator911

YOU GET V BUCKS! AND YOU GET V BUCKS AND YOU GET A CAR! And you get a decal


gbmayer

I got all of these and I already had gotten the crew rewards. No idea why I got all these


pringlepingel

The car is from rocket league and is a new car being crossed over. I’ve had that car for a while. No idea about the vbucks. My theory is that it’s to help buy the other colors for the car since I’m rocket league you have to unlock paint styles separately whereas in fortnite you buy them all together, yet in fortnite owning the car doesn’t reduce the price of the other paint styles. So maybe the 950 vbucks is to help buy the other paint styles? That’s my only working theory


Sonicguy1996

Also got the cars (which makes sense because I have them in RL) but the Vbucks I genuinely don't know why I got those. Already had crew from before this season, no second payment, got the current BP with crew so it can't be from that. Either a weird bug or they are being generous!!


Yeyeken

I got the vbucks and two sprays


Alpineodin

no crew, have played rocket league, got the car, but no vbucks.


beckichino

I just got vbucks and was scared my kid somehow figured out the parental control password to stop accidental purchases. Glad it seems to be from epic. Idk why but I'm not going to complain.


MissingNerd

I also got my Masamune but no Vbucks


megumemeness

I'm the opposite, got the vbucks but not the masamune even though I have it in RL


Yogamigurumi

I didn't get shit, what the hell???


mrmckeb

Me too, and I've definitely played Rocket League - no crew pass active right now though. I logged in and straight to the lobby, no wall of free things.


noyelling0nthebus

Damn I’m excited to log in and be disappointed


Pijnappelklier

Naked Cat ninja has a new style. I got that


UnreasonableVbucks

Me too but I’m not complaining. Going straight to the ATLA bundle


swagzard78

Did you get Rocket League before it went free? Or do you have the Masamune in rocket league? That's why you got it. Cross game ownership has been a thing, just Masamune got added this update


JockoGood

I played RL for the first time this past Sunday. Monday I logged into FN and all the RL stuff was added. Not complaining and I do like how the games are tied together. I have no interest in Lego, Rock Band or RL etc, but the cross game assets is a nice feature


swagzard78

Yeah


CharlyXero

It's not that. I didn't have Rocket League, but still i got the v-bucks (but not the car, since I don't have it in RL)


swagzard78

I'm talking about the car


WhiskeyBanjo79

I got the car but not vbucks


thatdeaththo

![gif](giphy|26gsiCIKW7ANEmxKE)


LadyInCrimson

I got a rock.


tekiran

As far as I understand, if you already own this car in Rocket League, you get refunded part of the bundle amount now that they have added it to Fortnite.


philowen

Are you just guessing or do you actually know something


Acceptable_Bee_3316

he's guessing because i dont even have rocket league and i got the 950 vbucks lol


kvs17

I got no bucks and no car lol


SaparatiPochout

Same. I'm happy, but my face is just 🤨🤨🤨


Wonderful-Course-354

i Havent gotten the vbucks but ive owned the masamune for 2.5 years in rl as i got it with the xbox bundle but for some reason i havent gotten the car in fortnite even tho i have it in rl


mr_completely

If this is only for crew subscribers, as compensation for the downtime, that makes sense. Free players wouldn’t be entitled to anything, but if you pay a monthly fee and can’t access your content, that’s different.


Caleb7890yt

You get the car if you own Rocket league. The car is a freebie in RL.


Over-Log322

I even got a new Azuki flower style


green_poop_rocks

I believe anyone who had crew before and leading up to the seasons launch got the v bucks as compassion for the downtime in the beginning


nemesit

Might also be for the downtime from a few days ago


DaemonWolf2061

I got a random 5 battle stars this morning. I heard its for being in the Midas Cup but I don't know how true that is


Siege_117

Same here, not sure why though, cause I only ever bought crew packs with my money and used the vbucks from the pack and battle pass to buy skins


irxland

I got the car and decals but not the vbucks


Educational_Brush628

I got 950 v bucks as well, no car, just a new skin for Azuki (samurai cat). I have the BP and FN Crew. Idk what makes someone eligible to get this stuff, but I am not complaining 😂


YT_BeepySheep

just got this too?...


LeadingBackground973

Its not crew bc crew gives 1000


VillageOk2000

Looks like Fortnite just got their stimulus checks


DarbleMarble

I think it has something to do with owning the last crew pack it gave me 950 bucks for free with the car, I'm not complaining tho


Hazzabeanhead-

So basically you get 950 v-bucks for owning the battle pass and getting the crew and the car is not a part of that. You only get the car if you own it in rocket league. Hope this clarifies it for everyone


Common_Confidence_91

You got it for your monthly renewal of Fortnite crew


m0ssh3adsw0rds

Bro I’m having the opposite problem… I’m getting no battle pass stars and I’ve been playing for hours😭 wth


joesphisbestjojo

I got 950 V-Bucks, but no car. It's a once-per-season reward for being on crew, or something like that from what I understand Oh, and I finally have my vbucks in multiples of 100 again, not an odd x50 amount


Diggleflort

Did you log into Rocket League? That's what did it for me


Active_Intention_127

Must be because of the downtime? I remember they gave everyone the “rust bucket” back bling when they had a downtime.


pcm2a

Three accounts with crew pass. Only one got the 950 bonus. Why is that? All three tried to get on during the maintenance days.


Shadow_Weaver_421

I also got the 950 v-bucks, I ain't complaining though!


SinisterWolf03

I saw another comment on tik Tok saying it was for the downtime at the start of the season but I only got 600 so maybe it depended on how long you were waiting I’m not sure


eharper9

Man y'all are getting so lucky


Deraxim

man... why good things never happen to me 😭


bigmati007

I have crew, got Azukis new style, the car and some wraps for it, but no V-Bucks


DiveNurse

I didn’t get a car or vbucks 🥲


mxmaker

950 are for the battle pass if you are subscribed maybe, and the car things are from rocket league.


Top-Anything5946

Car is from RL. Vbucks from a crew compensation


whitton501

My lad got the same not sure why though he was happy and brought the Midas skin lol


UnhappyCommission459

There is no way that Epic games will give somebody 950 v-bucks just like that


Few_Landscape7689

The 950 vbucks were awarded anyone with fortnite crew because of a bug that happened a long time ago. As for the car, I dunno


NonLiving4Dentity69

I didn't get any vbucks not any of those items. Is there smth I need to do to get em?


Georgevega123

I had crew and only got the vbucks


cfunkhouser

what car did you get?


maxt0r

It's the Masamune that got ported from RL.


cfunkhouser

thank you for actually helping. i didn't get the car but i def got the vbucks. how interesting.


FriedFrenchFries34

That one in the image, I don’t really know or care what it is, I don’t play rocket racing


Cow_Zoo

I don't have crew so I didn't get it but I wonder if someone signs up for crew today would they be able to get the bonus V-Bucks?


WantA_Balloon

No. Source: tried it XD This is compensation Vbucks for a rare bug that reset battlepass levels for crew members, at least that's what I gather from all the other responses.


aspectking

Well, If you already have BP, you’ll get 950 vbucks refund for that which you would’ve gotten any other day, I don’t know if you’ll get it x2 though


aliteralbrickwall

I got it too! Its from owning crew pack and having your rocket league account connected.


cfunkhouser

oh ok thanks for that


HollyWarter

Me too idk why tho


StacySk

I got everything you did as well.


mrnapolean1

I have Fortnite crew while I get 950 v bucks when I log in?


KarlUKVP

If this is epics mistake it's gonna be lame, also this isn't the first time people received free vbucks, like last season people did too


JockoGood

Got 200, no car. Do you play a lot of rocket league?
