  • AtypicalSarge Atypical Sarge (@AtypicalSarge) reported

    Having huge FPS drop (300's to 90's) after chapter 3 season 2 update in Fortnite. Have had it for two days now. All settings are the same, same programs running as before, and no changes on my end. Is anyone else having similar issues? @FortniteGame @FortniteBR @FortniteStatus

  • nytevfx nyte (@nytevfx) reported

  • datekaname lucian (@datekaname) reported

    this is about fortnite i forgot to say. i dont even think building is bad in theory i just cannot adjust to people who build that fast over my head it's a skill issue

  • BarksyRun Barksy (@BarksyRun) reported

    @georgina_jgr no building is def a interesting thing, would honestly work as a standalone gamemode if balanced properly like maybe having only certain things destructible but even with that fortnite is designed around the building aspect so its honestly hard to tell how to actually fix it

  • demon079767 MASON GOES (@demon079767) reported

    @FortniteStatus Fortnite im on xbox and my game is trash fix it pls i cant even move im stuck and it wont work!

  • Perqulated Perq (@Perqulated) reported

    not even mad about the broken smg what happen to my graphics man why tf everytime i fly in a blue shawdows go right past me i want my builds back fortnite im delayed asf💔

  • GHR0Phites P C (@GHR0Phites) reported

    @FortniteGame Add building back with a .5 sec delay just so people can't build instant mansions and un-vault the flare gun. My biggest issue right now though is that you added Tanks but no Rocket Launchers to deal with them?

  • killerofsnakes BT (@killerofsnakes) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    Still no fix to aimassist @FortniteGame guess I’ll be playing @PlayApex for another full season

  • hawkpng Hawk (@hawkpng) reported

    @FortniteGame @DonaldMustard WHY ******** DO YOU REMOVE LOW MESHES I CANT EVEN PLAY ANYMORE LIKE HOLY **** FIX THIS **** I COULDN'T GIVE 100 ***** THAT I CAN'T SEE A ******* TREE HONESTLY **** FORTNITE

  • PhysicsSwitch Fortnite Switch Physics (@PhysicsSwitch) reported

    @Wasting_Night Pubs: No building. Arena: Building. It's that simple. Solves literally every problem Fortnite has right now. SBMM has failed, forced crossplay isn't going anywhere, casuals get frustrated by sweats and smurfs, good players get frustrated by casuals complaining. #ChangeMyMind

  • woah_its_auri auri ❄️✨ 🔜 CFz?? (@woah_its_auri) reported

    .@mattyfeelsruff just gasped, pulled a shocked face at me and handed me their phone with the google search "fortnite no building" and a bunch of pc gamer articles with an expression that made it seem like the biggest news of all time had broken

  • vxlxrxkxlxr v (@vxlxrxkxlxr) reported from Garrane, Munster

    i think the main issue with rural ireland is there's lads who sit there discussing the fortnite daily item shop in the pub

  • Tree0L Tree (@Tree0L) reported

    Anyone else having issues with the omni chips in @FortniteGame went to the locations and the chips are not there and yes I own the battle pass!!

  • AllsmilesxL Allsmiles (@AllsmilesxL) reported

    @FactsRealTalk @FortniteGame 8 year old problems

  • YousefAlawfi therealyousef (@YousefAlawfi) reported

    @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame Epic games I cant log in to fortnite can you see the problem

  • Wileybot2004 Wileybot 2004 (@Wileybot2004) reported

    @Bolverk15 You hate Fortnite because of issues with the game/player base. I hate Fortnite because it’s owned by Epic.

  • Jhannes11 joifalk (@Jhannes11) reported

    You can barely play fortnite on ps4 anymore the lag is unreal it’s unplayable also against pc players with zero ping helps 👍👍 #FortniteSeason2 #Fortnite

  • Leapzss Leapzs on YT (@Leapzss) reported

    @FortniteGame @FortniteStatus Can you please fix the issue with DirectX12 this season. Last season I was running a constant 240 fps and now I cant even get 60. Please fix it.

  • WachaNoahBoutit 𝔑𝔬𝔞𝔥 (@WachaNoahBoutit) reported

    @Unknown05659966 @PotatoHeart07 @XTigerHyperX2 nah 2 hour wait times shouldn’t be a thing lol fortnite has had way more players on at once with no server issues

  • SS2TTV Sentinelsniper2⚔️ (@SS2TTV) reported

    Yeah the shotgun abuse is out of hand @FortniteGame please do something about this. It's already a hot topic issues you're gonna lose players and momentum on the season especially the drum shotgun needs a hard nerf

  • Bigshiesty19 Bigshiesty (@Bigshiesty19) reported

    @Cobra_Campbell @NitroSpidey Ur just trash bro and fortnite is compensating u for being *** by adding broken smgs and tanks and no building why are u mad ur the trash one I should be mad

  • whiteshaq69 Artem (@whiteshaq69) reported

    @EpicGames @FortniteGame ur game fukin sucks ***** fix it **** heads

  • Ryandude5678 Ryandude5678 (@Ryandude5678) reported

    @polaqwym I like it and would love it as a separate permanent mode, but not in the main game forever. Building is what made Fortnite unique and it definitely has to stay. But the option isn't a bad thing, either. I doubt queue times would be that much of an issue if they did this, either.

  • KishinJay 𝙅𝙖𝙮 💫 (@KishinJay) reported

    They put broken guns in fortnite to make up for the virgins now they can’t build

  • tech_eater_ Bran Hunter 💻 (@tech_eater_) reported
