    @FortniteGame Please help. I am new to the fortnite world. My kid was playing in the "battle royale" section, but now every time he selects that, it sends him to the "creative" one. How can we fix it?

    @MuzzaYT @FortniteGame They didn't shut the servers down. The servers went down ON THEIR OWN the servers broke. It took 8 hours for them to be fixes it was unavoidable

    @acrazyr @Pengu The problem with fortnite is that it has mostly become the player base and how sweaty and advanced most fortnite players are at building. Personally I can’t see a way for prime fortnite to come back.

    @FortniteGame So I get my 1000 v-bucks on fortnite crew today and it didn't give them to me. It said I got them but I didn't. Wanted to know if this is a glitch or bug that's being fixed or worked on.

    @tjohansen98 The entire concept of the fortnite, Call of Duty and Halo store is FOMO. They just rotate back in the shop once a year. If you play a game that shuts it’s servers down, your “digital content” is more useless than an NFT.

    @FortniteGame Can you sort something for consol players, we get extreme lag, input delay, and building/editing is way harder. It's impossible to compete.

    @alphaINTEL Someone who used both inputs, prefer kbm. I feel like I could improve more. 🤷 also aa isn’t broken lmfao it’s not as bad as on fortnite where you could l2 spam and basically win (used to I think)

    @TimSweeneyEpic Can I get a hold of someone in your support team? My son has special needs and contracted COVID. All he wants to do is play Fortnite but there is an issue with his account and support is not answering. HALP pretty please?

    @FortniteGame @FortniteStatus I went on a vacation and left my game behind at home. I have returned on the 5th but I cannot open any gifts. Polar Peel is glitched through one of the presents and all of the presents are red/blue and marked from MJ. Is this a glitch?

    @Swagg @RavenSoftware I don't know why they can't 'Vault' it like Fortnite until its fixed? Like yeah I get its a tier 100 skin but just Vault it in WZ until you apply the fix & then just re-enable it! Like seriously they make things out to be so much more difficult than they are

    @PlayerSupportFN any known issues with Fortnite on PC crashing? It’s been crashing like every 3rd game for me. I’m on an X570 AMD system (5600x) with 32gig of DDR 4 3600 and a RTX 3080ti. I’ve tried everything :( It ran fine before this last update

    @8bit_Spazzy I almost sort of wish they had just embraced the ‘Smash as a service’ angle like Fortnite or Minecraft and just put an offshoot Namco team in charge of putting out DLC for the duration of the Switch lifespan having it be final with ‘there is no more content’ warnings is a bummer
