    @ShiinaBR the season and the concept isn't the problem. its the chapter and the feeling of the game. it doesn't feel like fortnite anymore and that's what prohibits me from fully enjoying it. take this season and put it on the chapter 2 map and I promise id be enjoying it much more

    @coldgaboFN @Fortnite @FortniteStatus Every ******* update you gotta have one player complaining about all these same issues If epic didn't listen the first 1000 times why would they listen to the 1001st time?

  • piginapokezzap Robin Hogg (@piginapokezzap) reported

    @The__Goomba @AwesomeUKFacts It was fine. Its got good gameplay, thats what counts. Never have a problem playing it (anywhere there's decent wifi). If someone was expecting to play Fortnite in 4K, 120fps on a Switch then they were deluding themselves.

  • MrsSussy00 ToriixNikki (@MrsSussy00) reported

    @FortniteStatus I've just spent 2 hours on fortnite festival levelled up to level 8, came back to lobby and it's put me back to level 1. Please fix this issue. @Fortnite

  • trevor_dom28609 Trevor Domingos (@trevor_dom28609) reported

    @Fortnite Fix your ******* game. Rocket racing has so many bugs now. During speed runs I can only get one run in before being bugged out to where I can’t spectate or do another lap. Not to mention you have bugs on top of bugs where if I’m in a race my car won’t accelerate only jump/steer

    @nvidia “RTX 5090 + Fortnite = Unplayable when NVIDIA App overlay is active. Massive CPU spikes + 2FPS drops. Disabling overlay fixes it. Needed App for DLSS4 in Cyberpunk. Any fix incoming?”

  • mikufort Miku Fortnite (@mikufort) reported

    @FreeFnItems you can't expect a product to be perfect on release, there's gonna be issues with stuff. Look at half of the weapons released this chapter, let alone the past 3 chapters I don't know much about brick life other than 'fortnite Bloxburg', so I cant speak on that

  • fckholo holo (@fckholo) reported

    @TheVisitor777 i know i feel the same way, they did good and they fixed enough so i'm fine with waiting i'm just pointing out the issues for other people. not trying to complain, i've had more fun with og season 4 than i've had for a long time in fortnite

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    The similarities between Creepz Ziggy and Fortnite's chameleon character raise questions about IP rights and plagiarism. IP law protects original character designs, and copying without permission could infringe copyright. Shared traits like backwards caps and wide-set eyes suggest possible inspiration, but these are common in gaming, supporting arguments for independent creation. Proving plagiarism requires showing substantial similarity and access to Creepz's design, which isn't clear here. Without official statements, it's uncertain if this is coincidence or copying. For clarity, Epic Games or Creepz could address the issue.
