    glad fortnite updated the levels because I played like 5 matches, won two of them, and did several challenges and didn’t even get higher than maybe 3? the beginning of every season always has this sort of problem lol

  • stuntmanmicah13 ATOMIC_DETH_9000 (@stuntmanmicah13) reported

  • Patsfan1289 Jon (@Patsfan1289) reported

    @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame Don’t understand how after 5 years you haven’t found a formula that makes for fair Xp and every season it’s broken lol

  • TimGardiner3 Rebel Scum (it's not the years, it's the mileage) (@TimGardiner3) reported

    Hate #FortniteSeason3 - last season wasn’t great, after a good start to chapter 3 before that. Biggest problem are the weapons and uninspiring locations #Fortnite probably my least favourite season & that includes UFO one - positives are that I’ll get earlier nights & go out more

  • MajinBuusha Buusha (@MajinBuusha) reported

    It's crazy because Smite is literally the only game I have those issues for and a lot of people have said that. Tell me how a way bigger map on fortnite and I have zero lag and zero drops and zero freezes, tell me how I can play other games on steam and not have any issues

  • KentaigaTV 🍑 Kentaiga 🍑 (@KentaigaTV) reported

    @Daboyui If they made it so you couldn’t walk on building before they’re constructed this problem would be solved. Can’t rush if you have to wait. It would maybe encourage people to actually put the “fort” in Fortnite.

  • SlNEMATIC666 David Scott (@SlNEMATIC666) reported

    @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame Great. Now fix the matchmaking. It’s a mess 😳

  • JdThe65th The 65th JD (@JdThe65th) reported

    @WalkerrzFN Bro built an entire 5 star hotel with room service, if there was ever proof that Fortnite needed a no build mode, this was it.

  • Nyc_baby31 Geovany Gil (@Nyc_baby31) reported

    @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame @elonmusk I have concerns about your Tesla creation kinda scares me when people crash on auto pilot 👽

  • SplodedChicken Eric (@SplodedChicken) reported

    @FortniteGame up the spawns for the stupid reality seed pods. I've landed there over a dozen times and haven't seen A SINGLE ONE. FIX IT.

  • infopalito 🔫🐠 𝕀𝕟𝕗𝕠𝕡𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕠 𝔽𝕠𝕣𝕥𝕟𝕚𝕥𝕖 (@infopalito) reported

    Hello @FortniteGame, why advertise crossplay so much if later we have a brutal lag that prevents us from enjoying the game? 😑 It's horrible to hit an enemy with a sniper and see that the bullet goes through his head and he kills you with a shotgun at the distance he wants.

  • AyyeUnruly sB Unruly | 手に負えない (@AyyeUnruly) reported

    @BigBryTV I hope they chalk all the content and do operation health and fix everything they broke thus far then launch a mid season event as cool as fortnite.

  • comic_cultured Comic Cultured (@comic_cultured) reported

    @MarshymeIIo0407 @FortniteGame @Marvel It won't come to Marvel unlimited until September 28th when the final issue releases. All five issues go to the app at the same time.

  • Agent_Ness Gekkouga (@Agent_Ness) reported

    @HYPEX even if this tweet is real or not I still would love to see first person fortnite pranking builds 90s and first person now that would be really cool and some bulky skins wouldn't even have an ads issue because you can't even see them

  • comic_cultured Comic Cultured (@comic_cultured) reported

    @TrueFNAFGamer @FortniteGame @Marvel You'll get all the codes and if you use Marvel unlimited app you get a 6th bonus reward... BUT none of the issues release on the app until September 28th when the final issue comes out. And the codes expire December 31st.

    @FortniteGame can you try to fix the friend request accepted stop showing up when you first get on

  • ExOwnage OwnageEX (@ExOwnage) reported

    @aDudeist_Priest @FortniteGame Must be a you problem umm I don't have any of those glitches the game is completely fine

  • Epoqua Epoqua (@Epoqua) reported

    @j4wnistired I partially agree. While I do think that 1500 mats in a casual lobby is excessive, building is not an issue in competitive Fortnite. While casual players care about building, pros care about guaranteed chest spawns, accurate audio, and FOV. They are essentially different games.
