    @FortniteStatus Fix the Fortnite Loading Screen login issue. Some people haven't played in over three days, and I've been playing for two. As for other things, they should patch or fix the bugs right away. We won't have to wait until the v36.10 update on June 18th.

    @FortniteStatus Hi Fortnite, I've been experiencing some issues lately—specifically, the game is taking a very long time to load. I've noticed a few other players are having the same problem. Is this a known glitch or server issue? Hoping you can look into it. Thanks!

  • Doyle477493545 Doyle4 (@Doyle477493545) reported

    @Fortnite Yo Fortnite... why after the latest Season when I win a game, the next game I get a Anti cheat error 24, booted from the game, lose my crown but can play fine once you taken that away? its happening EVERY time I win a game...

  • ayvuhmoe Alice (@ayvuhmoe) reported

    @TimSweeneyEpic If they sit in private servers (they are free) the exploiter can't be reported which makes it easier for them to resell on the black market. Mobile doesn't have an anti-cheat so bots are a big problem because you can run exploits through emulators (same with Fortnite, please fix)

    @Bebika1212 @FortniteStatus @spejson22 Isnt fortnite fixing login. Timed out issue that half the people that have that

  • RamirezDosUABOs Ramirez dos UABOS (@RamirezDosUABOs) reported

    @yemin19_05 Fortnite should announce the issue to all players, because staying silent makes the community more confused. If their plan is to fix it in the next update, that's fine with me, but if the issue persists, we'll have to convince Epic to fix it somehow.

    @Fortnite Ey fortnite the switch Server are broken

  • RegiromBuilds Regirom (@RegiromBuilds) reported

    That makes sense. I guess that’s once of the biggest issues with the Fortnite ecosystem right now and where Roblox succeeds. So many Roblox content creators post content for free about games they find cool whereas in Fortnite you almost always need an extensive marketing budget to take off due to most content creators only caring about Battle Royale. We’ve seen a trend of content creators just straight up copying games they find cool and make content on THEIR OWN version instead of just posting about the original. Not sure if this is an issue on Roblox (at all?)

  • ICEY383 HP icey (@ICEY383) reported

    @FNCompetitive @FortniteStatus @Fortnite can yall fix the bug when in the game mode “battle Royale tournament settings” the map appears as nothings been discovered which makes it extremely hard to ping drop maps since the whole map is a grayish blue and you can’t see in details.

    @Fortnite @EpicPublishing please fix discovery for #Fortnite 😢 I published a TWDU map almost a week ago, and despite putting out updates I have not seen my map pop up in the TWD category, nor have I seen any maps rotate properly. -sincerely A discouraged creator

  • Noxy8k XR Noxy8k. (@Noxy8k) reported

    Hey @Fortnite, please fix the pump damage, I'm over here hitting for 43 every shot while my enemies pump hits me in the body for 200.

  • SparkyVEVO Sparky (@SparkyVEVO) reported

    @RavenBones_TW The issue is that they won't do that ever unless they make every rocket pass item work in Fortnite. So for example finishing a race or eliminating someone triggers the goal explosion effect. Tops are avaible. Banners become a thing and rocket pass music turns into jam tracks

  • MrLuckyLuuk LuckyLuuk (@MrLuckyLuuk) reported

    @CheezyCreates Yeah, but thats just a fortnite glitch, it used to be all green
