  • Gatt_ Gatt 🇬🇧🇪🇺 (@Gatt_) reported

    @virginmedia is there a problem with the network around Manchester? Since Saturday, we have had horrendous lag spikes making Online Gaming unplayable (IE the skeletons in "Jason & the Argonauts" move faster and smoother than we do in Fortnite or Apex!!).

  • milanfnbr Onyx Milan (@milanfnbr) reported

    @LaykzVFX yeah i can i had same problem with fortnite account

  • Meersy David Meers (@Meersy) reported

    @dizzanxietytho @downhounder @fortnite I understand the need for an update that requires downtime. I’m pointing out they have an online status page that isn’t up to date (so completely useless) and they have no outage message on the login screen. Both examples of poor tech implementations and bad user experience.

    @AlphaSmokyy @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame Any problems that require "actual" effort are overlooked because they're just in ot for easy money. Hence the crappy skins and overpriced cheap emotes

  • pogoroar POGOROAR (@pogoroar) reported

  • luenzorlol lucas (@luenzorlol) reported

    @SkinSpotlights Bro look at Apex nowadays. Same issue? Game receives no new content and is essentially just a hypercompetive sweat-fest. Fun for new players that want to learn or people that want to play ranked, but gets stale fast. Now compare it to Fortnite.

  • NFSTAZZI TAZZI♤ (@NFSTAZZI) reported

    @FortniteStatus Please fix older console form freezing it the worst thing atm in fortnite

  • Todd74992750 Todd Parker (@Todd74992750) reported

    @Dp0pey @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame Not being able to sprint. Lagging. All the bugs that take actual effort are overlooked. They want easy money fast.

  • mini_miketyson eric tybg (@mini_miketyson) reported

  • purplybtw PurplyBTW (@purplybtw) reported

  • IdNetural Netural_id (@IdNetural) reported

    @FortniteGame hey... so um yeah sweats complained about hammer glitching. Ban the people who use the glitch. Valting the hammer is dumb. I forgave you caving after a day to the sweats about dekus smash. Even op should've been a week. I only used it once. NO FUN ALOWWED!
