> Epic promises they will comply
Did i miss something where they actually said that? My understanding is that in the past Sweeney's statements have consistently said they will not exclusively offer Apple's IAP which indicates they promise to not comply with the rules.

In this thread's Fireball blogpost is a link to Tim Sweeney's tweet of an email screenshot to Apple's Phil Schiller stating his "promise": >Sep 16, 2021 at 5:01 PM; Subject: Fortnite and the App Store; To: Phil Schiller >[..] Epic promises that it will adhere to Apple’s guidelines whenever and wherever we release products on Apple platforms.[...]
- abduhl 5y agoTim Sweeney and Epic planned and executed an entire campaign (hilariously even given a secret code name as if Epic was either some super hero or villain) that was predicated on knowingly breaching a contract (read: a promise). Then they sued. Then they lost. Now they have a new promise? Their promises are worth less than dogshit. Apple apparently isn’t in the market for dogshit.

The next paragraph in the email from Sweeney: > Whether Epic chooses to bring Fortnite back to iOS consumers depends on whether and where Apple updates its guidelines to provide for a level playing field between Apple In-App Purchase and other methods of payment. Epic said "if you update your terms to something we would like to follow, we promise to follow them".
