Turning off these services for UT99 is in such bad taste. I mean, their Unreal Engine was borne from Unreal Tournament. Considering their success with Fortnite they should be able to provide these services forever.


> We will automatically refund players for any in-game purchases made via Epic direct payment 180 days prior to today.

Why does the date you made the purchases matter? If they're forcibly taking back something you paid for, they should have to refund you no matter when you bought it.
