On Twitter, players like @ItsSlumpii have directly appealed to Epic Games’ CEO, Tim Sweeney, urging a reconsideration of this decision. The player emphasizes that trading is a fundamental feature cherished by the community, and its removal has been met with widespread disapproval. Many players view this move as a culmination of their dissatisfaction with the lack of substantial game updates in recent years.
Online petitions have also emerged on platforms like Change.org. The largest petition, initiated by a user known as Nick Wallgren, has garnered over 4,500 signatures since its inception. Wallgren describes the removal of trading as a “disgrace” and insists that the Rocket League team reevaluates this decision urgently.
