    @pgreddd @HYPEX let me guess, you suck at aiming with snipers don't you. This is the problem with the people like you in the Fortnite community. When they are bad at something, they whine and cry so that epic removes it. If you don't want to get one-shot killed, then don't stand ******* still.

  • Brunomars_fan01 pulte (@Brunomars_fan01) reported

    @leoswe07309 @EpicGamesBackup @fortnite Well if the customers service don’t get back to you then I suggest you try searching for KDTECHZ

  • DillonHimSelf1 Dillonᵇᵀᵂ (@DillonHimSelf1) reported

    @FortniteStatus Can you guys fix the glitch where you already own the crew pass but it keeps saying crew benefits unlocked after logging in to fortnite

  • DustinoHeat Dustinhausen (@DustinoHeat) reported

    @XboxSupport there is an issue with the new update on Fortnite and Xbox Remote Connecting devices. When I try to play while streaming on my Xbox Series S, all the buttons on my controller stop working. It doesn’t do this with any other game.

  • DildoSchwagins_ ***** Schwaggins (@DildoSchwagins_) reported

    @maskedannie5 Double vaxxed and got sick for like 10 days. A “man cold” describes it best. I regret being vaccinated and I don’t support mandates of any sort. While sick I took up 3 icu beds and demanding the disconnect other patients so I can plug in my ps5 and play fortnite

  • TheRacerJay2 The_Racer_Jay (@TheRacerJay2) reported

    So glad Fortnite got rid of the building bug, now it’s a fun game. Too bad it took about 4 years to fix the bug.

  • D2sdagoat D2sthename (@D2sdagoat) reported

    @x1lly Fortnite just fix it

  • Musty_DustyUwU Dusty (@Musty_DustyUwU) reported

    There is ONE problem with Fortnite right now, and the problem is the big bushes. You can’t see people in the bushes with a Thermal rifle but they can see you completely fine. This is a big problem now when we don’t have any building… So REMOVE BIG BUSHES NOW @FortniteGame

  • FNGameUpdates Fortnite Updates (@FNGameUpdates) reported

    Epic has resolved the issue and players can jump back into Creative and earn Battle Pass XP from Accolades. #Fortnite

  • ArmaanKang17 Armaan Kang (@ArmaanKang17) reported

    @Marvel @FortniteGame Maybe tom Holland spider man can try to fix iron man s heart

  • TBranach ... (@TBranach) reported

    @TheActMan_YT @Kwite @NICKMERCS Fortnite dropping building for a season might be the nail in the coffin. All the "halo BR when" types can get their fix and get slow dripped the build mechanic until they're used to it.

  • giantsmisfit Giantsmisfit (@giantsmisfit) reported

    @Airbenderr97 Like do the sound it's fine but like force narrowing our field of view is not the business. My friend thought they were having eye problems. Do better fortnite.

  • McgeheeDestiny Destiny McGehee (@McgeheeDestiny) reported

    @iFireMonkey @postboxpat @NotDubzz Okay but fortnite status tweeted that there was a glitch making it not work and it’s been fixed, insinuating that it still works??

  • janxoo WhosJanxo (@janxoo) reported

    Now that the game breaking preformance issues are fixed and I can play the new season I have to say this is the worst experience I've ever had on fortnite

  • NoizEKricket MITCH (@NoizEKricket) reported

    Building was legit the problem I had with Fortnite. Kinda makes me wanna retry it

  • primeghost110 PRIME (@primeghost110) reported

    My opinion on the new season, fortnite without building is fire, the aug is broken, smgs broken, shotguns drum shotty broken pump no point in using the other one is op but not crazy, the thermal need to shoot faster. #FortniteChapter3Season2

  • TheCalssic420 Tyrone Saddleback (@TheCalssic420) reported

    @visionalproject @FortINTEL Heck yeah! But the Internet connection out here sucks cause a stupid Dog chewed up the Internet wire. Now it's VERY hard to play Fortnite cause the chewed up cord makes everyone who uses the Internet lag a whole lot. Even if we're not playing a game online

  • DanteMorningst4 Dark Mephiles (@DanteMorningst4) reported

    on #fortnite the fishing is a bit broken very time i fish the collection goes back to zero wtf

  • Makoizaqt Mako (@Makoizaqt) reported

    @FortniteGame when ever I use a thermal or aug it sometimes removes the gun and only has the crosshairs while I ads. I mean it’s weird but easier to aim just fix it epic please.

  • lewisboys2007 Lewisboys2007 (@lewisboys2007) reported

    @FortniteGame Fortnite fix your game my car keeps getting stuck in the ground when I'm driving with a cow catcher on it.

  • mtndie Chris Warren (@mtndie) reported

    Anyone else having aiming issues after the #Fortnite update?

  • akaTrayz 桜Trayz (@akaTrayz) reported

    @FortniteStatus This season update ruined all, What about deleting it and give us older fortnite version before it? U cant fix all bugs anyway

  • UnfilteredNerd Maidenless Nerd (@UnfilteredNerd) reported

    but lets say that's all tolerable because its the most hyped game of the century and "eventually they will fix it" (lol) now add that you can only gain xp toward the battle pass by completing quests like in fortnite. except the quests are not fun or easy.

  • ShinyEmpress_27 ShinyEmperor270 (@ShinyEmpress_27) reported

    @Vincentius_rex Yeah and plus…I think if infinite was to do a br immediately then we maybe going the same road of bf 2042 and I don’t think anyone wants to go down that road of being so broken or messy tbh. Plus if infinite did one later on then I hope it’s fun like fortnite and not warzone.

  • smexyafton Miles (@smexyafton) reported

    @FortniteBR It’s not actually gone gone- Fortnite said that some people are having issues getting it so they’re working to fix it.

  • FNGameUpdates Fortnite Updates (@FNGameUpdates) reported

    Epic is aware of an issue that is preventing players from earning Battle Pass XP from Accolades while playing Creative mode. Epic will provide an update once the issue is resolved. #Fortnite

  • G0jjira G0jji (@G0jjira) reported

    @JoePapaWendigo @Dexerto @NICKMERCS Thats honestly not true tho, he's had a reason to quit every game hes played besides maybe fortnite ? Gears he quit because the devs literally don't know wtf they're doing, and he quit warzone because the cheating problem is rampant still. Halo has so many issues its no wonder.

  • 1mseeingstars Cia (@1mseeingstars) reported

    @FortniteStatus What about the issue where my fortnite crashes almost daily? 🤔

  • Dieselweasels Jay Weasel (@Dieselweasels) reported

    Hey @TimSweeneyEpic @MarkRein I'm having an issue with gaining xp from creative. I've reported it several times and your @FortniteGame support can't help me. It's been ongoing now for two chapters. Account name Dieselweasels. Please take a look.

  • CEarth120 CrackedEarth120 (@CEarth120) reported

    @VxguePsychx @YoRedpanda @FortniteGame That ain’t my problem because I can play arena and building is coming back. So I’m not complaining
