New Twitch drops aren't tradeable either? Why?

I am strongly opposed to making the new Battle Pass and Bazaar content untradeable, but I can at least understand the logic behind it, but why are the new Twitch drops also not tradeable?

This is just plain unnecessary.

I completely agree with you, the only items I can understand having trade restrictions on, would be Battle Pass & Bazaar items.

BTW, where were these Twitch drops announced? I certainly didn’t see an announcement here on the forums which is very unfortunate. I managed to get the White Rabbit, are there others I am missing?

There’s an announcement on Steam and Twitter. Someone copied the announcement into a thread discussing the discovery of the rabbit in the admin panel. I don’t think they got around to posting an official announcement on the forums.

Looks like there are three drops. But there’s a significant delay between when you can get them. You can get the rabbit now until April 13. Then something else from April 14 to May 12. Then the third item from May 13 until June 11.

Those other two haven’t been officially revealed yet.

Thank you for the info! :+1:

It is announced in a news blog which is featured in the game launcher.

Is the Rocknose Figurine bugged? Apparently I was supposed to watch 1 hour of twitch between 1:00 am - 1:22 am today April 29th (Australian TZ ) pretty sure that’s not possible🤔.

What sorcery is this?

It wasn’t supposed to be available yet.

It’s the Tame White Rabbit right now, then the Blood Crystal Mace, then the Rocknose Figurine.

Oh ok thanks I was panicking for a bit there thinking I had missed it.
But wasn’t one supposed to be a cake?

Agreed. If people want to share/trade items with other players, they should be able to. They didn’t pay for it, and it will likely never come back.

People with the watcher armor can abuse this too. For example, say someone makes an epic set of it, attacks a player with lower quality gear, and dies. The player picks it up and can’t use it.

The appearance is unique as well, and there is no good reason for someone who has it to be prohibited from sharing the look with their friends.

Oh boo hoo I shouldn’t have to pay to get what I want and should be allowed to cheat the system. Guess what it costs money to keep the game running. So either buy the DLC’s and pay for and complete battle passes or don’t whine about being cheap. As for twitch it’s free to create an account and the drops are codes that are linked to your game account.

it didn’t take long for the first troll to show up, as it always does when it comes to this kind of topic…

So which is it? :thinking:

They’re likely referring to the old drops like the Watcher items and the Christmas items. New players will never get these items, and it’s not like Funcom ever advertises twitch drops on the forums, so if you only visit here, you’ll likely never know… at least until it’s too late like the last ones that only lasted a few days. If you haven’t noticed, their only announcements on twitter can easily get lost. I know I never see them unless I’m looking shortly after it’s been posted. Also, there’s a lot of people who don’t use social media. You’re kinda being a bit ignorant to the way the world works, and you seem to just wanna be a dick about replying to someone’s genuine concern. Sure, the battle pass and bazaar items seem logical to not share. Does it suck? Yeah, but it’s logical. It’s also logical to leave the twitch items available to share with those that missed them.

Read the whole OP he’s complaining about everything not just Twitch.

I think you and I read that very differently. You’re more concerned about addressing the aside, instead of the main point of the topic.

neither is ESO crown store items or warframe in-game store/twitch prime items

this is nothing new as many online games use the BTA (bound to account) or BTC (bound to character) mechanic

Sadly all you can do is complain here or quit the game. No one that can actually change how things are can read this. No investor or CEO is gonna read this or any other thread and we can’t blame the devs either.
