    @espressoqueeen @FortniteGame It literally hits and kills people when they’re behind unbreakable cover… it’s just broken

  • MoaningDave Dangerous Dave (@MoaningDave) reported

    @HaloSupport Try deploying an aiming fix, that way casuals might stop and play. Aiming is for tryhards and good players…did the previous Halo’s get it wrong? Did Fortnite get it wrong COD ? No !!!! Simplify them, for the games sake !

    @BungieHelp How, I’m sorry but how is it possible for stuff like this to occur with just simple updates to the game? It’s also crazy how it’s the ones backed by billions that have the most problems except Fortnite they keep theirs to a minimum.
