    @DrWitnesser You guys are still arguing over something he said 🤦🏻 y’all need to grow up, you guys really have nothing good to do but start trouble, I was taught not to do these kinds of thing growing up, and all of you are just immature fortnite kids that are under the age of 13, grow up!

    @CallofDuty this is the one thing i hate abt cod. u guys have an issue with the game and u guys don’t even address it when the community brings it up. u guys can’t even address it on ur own. i stopped playing fortnite but at least they addressed their issues with their game within 24 hours.

    @PushDustIn Fortnite being represented as a fighter in smash. Don't get me wrong, fortnite deserves to be represented but as a fighter? Hell no, i'd rather have a character like crash or hell, even bubsy fill in the role.

    @SuperSplint @ShiinaBR From the PC, Graphics card, RAM and everything I have I should be running at close to 200FPS but I am only getting 80 which is a big problem and is only happening with Fortnite, I can play most heavy duty games on a high FPS but Fortnite is low and needs to be sorted out!

    @FortniteStatus Hi, since this morning Fortnite has shown 'Checking for updates'. Is this a known issue throughout the network, a server issue or something local (UK)?

    @PushDustIn The Gen 4 remakes. I just feel as if they’d be better off in a Pokémon exclusive direct. Fortnite/Dante in smash. It just would be Steve but again. (By that I mean it would be hell to develop/beta test.) (I would be unposed to Crash or Waluigi tho)
