    @FortniteGame I can’t even play! Wtf. Servers have been down since last night? What are you guys doing? Fix this ish!

  • whosjonnym Jonathan mead (@whosjonnym) reported

    @HelloDbd @JW_Evolution @RudiRennkamel I have two friends who also have problems with this game, glitching dinos, escaping fliers, and crashing!. They play games like fortnite, COD, and other ram hungry games and have barely had a crash with those games. Annoying that this happens on sandbox too.

  • JethroD10 Jethro D (@JethroD10) reported

    Please add South African Servers in Fortnite @DonaldMustard or whoever does that im lagging thats what depopulates the game in South Africa

  • litdogger Ranga Tempest (@litdogger) reported

    @yuzushiraishi @elliedrms I think there are some big flaws in Fortnite's gameplay, but they're easy to look past if you're patient and they're not very easy problems to tackle anyway. Battle Royale punishes loss too much by forcing you to waste 20 more minutes, but that's an inherent trait of the genre.

  • ScourgeHH ScourgeHH (@ScourgeHH) reported

    @702840 @visiofy @HYPEX If what is keeping Fortnite alive is the shotguns then that's a problem. I mean bro, supposedly melee weapons are going to be a big part of the game coming up l. They don't want to fix the core gameplay, they want to uproot it and make a brand new one.

  • _its50shades Grey Janowski (@_its50shades) reported

    @OctoNerdGaming @RavenSoftware @Activision Right, okay. Valid complaints about a broken game are now “unhinged”. Go play Fortnite.
