  • ItsssClash ItsClash (@ItsssClash) reported

    @Silkies75032092 @AussieAntics @FortniteStatus I was trying to fix it for like an hour or 2 (+ deleted and reinstalled the game), and then I went to Fortnite Support and seen the alert message, and then seen the tweet.

  • love_elliot_ elliot (@love_elliot_) reported

    @FortniteGame The kmahehanahah is so ******* loud, is broken in no build, and this collab basically is making me quit br for the next 2 weeks. Creative is now my home

  • FlyinSol0 Raphael Solo (@FlyinSol0) reported

    @JacobFo04297096 @FortniteGame Having the same issue

  • duepzz Duepz #HNR (@duepzz) reported

    why can’t fortnite ******* work dude the developers can’t fix ****

  • JR69458780 Jay R (@JR69458780) reported

    @ZachsRoom @FortniteGame Bruh, its not a me problem if you go to the Fortnite Status twitter page and scroll down to the Tweet saying that they're aware of the crashing issue, a ton of people are experiencing the same thing. And that Tweet has gotten the most replies out of the other issues occurring.

  • goobrmania goobrmania (Comms Open) (@goobrmania) reported

    @JR69458780 @FortniteGame maybe it’s server overload? I mean it’s one of if not the biggest updates in fnbr history so you’ve gotta expect server crashes and lag.

  • Nariroc Rion (@Nariroc) reported

    @HenryBo85770736 @multiversus It’s really not an issue. I know you got used to fortnite but not every pass needs to let you earn the next one for free. Buy it, I’d agree that it sucks but it’s literally every 3 or so months actual bills are usually less frequent lol. And if you don’t but it you can still play

  • ZGReativ Reativ (@ZGReativ) reported

    @fn_news_leaks @FortniteGame This. Game. Sucks. To sum it up, the pvp system in Fortnite is one of the worst I’ve ever seen in gaming. From the timing being whack due to lag or bugs, terrible meta, bad connection system and more. The game has a great concept of doing things but terrible execution

  • Gabeflo45 Gabriel Flores (@Gabeflo45) reported

    @Thordansmash These comments make no sense to me lmao like it’s a game. With skins from franchises. Who cares??? If this type of **** “kills” your childhood than that’s a problem for you lmao don’t care much for fortnite anymore but I mean I still love DBZ

  • ZachsRoom Von Lycaon Simp - Commission Closed (@ZachsRoom) reported

    @JR69458780 @FortniteGame Looks like a you problem. Unreal Engine handles the GRAPHICS, not the connectivity. The server has nothing to do with this

  • JR69458780 Jay R (@JR69458780) reported

    @goobrmania @FortniteGame But I think a good chunk of the Fortnite content creators and users are on PC, so I would think the issue of the crashes should be made a top priority. If users can't hop into the game, then Epic is losing out on money because we all want to buy the new Dragonball skins

  • GBGundersen Gunnar Gundersen (he/him/his) (@GBGundersen) reported

    @FortniteGame The shop is not letting me gift the Goku bundle because it keeps saying the content has changed. Please fix!

  • Crib_Defender 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐁 (@Crib_Defender) reported

    Since downtime ended some players were unable to log into the game due to an Unreal Engine error saying "Fortnite has crashed. We're very sorry this happened and we are working towards preventing it in the future" I've been affected by this And I demand compensation @FortniteGame

  • Crib_Defender 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐁 (@Crib_Defender) reported

    I still can't play Fortnite: since downtime ended, some players were unable to log into the game due to an Unreal Engine error saying "Fortnite has crashed. We're very sorry this happened and we are working towards preventing it in the future" I demand compensation @FortniteGame

  • llBelou k Belou〰️ (@llBelou) reported

    I just saw the dragon ball fortnite skins and I think the best they did was bills, the others have problems but it was the same with the naruto skins, epic doesn't know how to make anime skins it seems 👎🏼

  • DualThreatAlpha TGN Almighty K (@DualThreatAlpha) reported

    Whoever added the ******* kamehameha **** you y'all made something broken I rather have only had the nimbus @FortniteGame #fortnite

  • jordanroher Jordan Roher (@jordanroher) reported

    @matt_hgaming Item 2 solves the problem of bringing items from one game to another. The whole idea is super dumb, but if you magically made a Fortnite clone and wanted to allow people to bring their old characters in, you'd need a law to force Epic Games to expose an API.

  • DhariwalaTaher Taher (@DhariwalaTaher) reported

    @FortniteGame please Fix your game crashing bug

  • ZiedTa Zied #TeamCooler (@ZiedTa) reported

  • derbock203 derbock203 (@derbock203) reported

    @FortniteGame The dragonball stuff is completly broken OP. Just put in a godmode..

  • JR69458780 Jay R (@JR69458780) reported

    @ZachsRoom @FortniteGame And my computer handles this game perfectly. I was playing most of the day yesterday with no issues, so its natural that I'm a bit baffled by this sudden crashing issue, especially since I've never had this issue before
