  • callmelizz7 CallmeLizz (@callmelizz7) reported

    Anyone else having issues with switching weapons in #Fortnite ? It just randomly doesn't switch when I most definitely pressed the different keybind. Might also be my computer though, I don't know, just wondering!

  • shadowbloxgame shadowbloxgaming (@shadowbloxgame) reported

    @keembtw @HYPEX He is never coming back. Fortnite got in trouble with his skin AND after what happened in the Travis Scott astroworld deaths they won’t bring him back into the item shop again.

  • typical_wraith Typical Wraith Main (@typical_wraith) reported

    @gaymerdarklord @FortniteGame I think the real issue is that barely anyone is even getting a banner, just the message

  • FlopperStan Flopper Stan (@FlopperStan) reported

    @Dety0 cheers but whenever i rename FortniteGame/ delete it, it resets all of my fortnite settings like FPS, performance mode etc every time anyway to fix this or nah

  • abanded_x Abanded (@abanded_x) reported

    Heyo! @EpicGames let's get this clear. Your team that made Fortnite need to fix their **** including you. My Fortnite account was banned without you just telling me that I cheated. It had been 1/2 weeks since I played. I spent over 200 dollars on it.

  • FI3NDD FI3ND (@FI3NDD) reported

    @FortniteGame Of course in true Fortnite fashion it’s broken within the first 2 minutes

  • Angelthagodz  Angel Padilla  (@Angelthagodz) reported

    @gone_witch @FortniteGame You need 35 kills to get the free glider and loading screen you have to sign in to your account I think it’s only Nintendo that’s what I heard

  • NathanP74677773 Nate Pace (@NathanP74677773) reported

    @WWESuperCard I would but my screen still lagging from your game not even Fortnite lags this much

  • artdumbster Christmas enjoyer (@artdumbster) reported

    @Timberpelt I honestly don't see the problem with new battle royales As long as they add new interesting mechanics, it's fine. Like, Fortnite and Apex doesn't play even similar, so it may be just a cash grab but maybe some people will enjoy it, and that's the point of a game

  • namzzila AMS!! 🥧 @ BDSPCOUNT / COMS (2/3) / UNI SEMI-HIAT (@namzzila) reported

    LRT> I have very limited Naruto knowledge but who knew Sasuke in fortnite would be the end to all my problems

  • UntoldMight Use code: UntoldMight #ad (@UntoldMight) reported

    @TheBig_Angelo Because they said they’re going to “fix the leaderboard.” Did you see how disorganized it was last night on @FortniteTracker and @FortniteGame?

  • ZANY_DEW9 ‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎‎███████████████ (@ZANY_DEW9) reported

    @FortniteGame Add refund gifted items system and no one will be in trouble of losing money

  • Realkingjohnny_ Therealkingjohnny (@Realkingjohnny_) reported

    @AllyJax_ @gamershawker my big problem with fortnite was the fact that it never took itself seriously at all. you can be goofy and still have a story to your game

  • frozenking218 CopyPast2007 (@frozenking218) reported

    @HYPEX "Today in decisions that will fix your life" How to uninstall Fortnite after the arrival of the B.R.U.T.E, you go to the epic store or on the console and press to uninstall "

  • NaheemWilkins Naheem Wilkins (@NaheemWilkins) reported

    The nindo challenges are not working for me @FN_Assist @FortniteGame

  • DarkLightFury21 DarkLıght (@DarkLightFury21) reported

    These lobbies will make me cry- why are people trying to clip me from halfway across the darn map- and sweating so hard as if it's arena/world cup- let me get 25 more kills then you all can sweat as hard as you want but please- @FortniteGame fix the dang SBMM.

  • planetzm bloom ❀ (@planetzm) reported

    @FortniteGame FIX THIS BUG, I want to play a game and it takes me to the loading screen but takes me right back to the menu

  • QuizzieFFA QuizzieFFA (@QuizzieFFA) reported

    @_ItsDavidJames @FortniteGame You can camp the funding stations and kill anyone who tries to vote if it’s that big an issue…

  • puggersss Wyatt (@puggersss) reported

    I just bought all the naruto fortnite skins I have a problem

  • SpunkyKnightx D Reed (@SpunkyKnightx) reported

    @ShiinaBR @FortniteBR Making skins exclusive to console purchases is kind of cringe, now it being exclusive to a specific console that you have to buy it on personally that would make more sense but like if you're dishing out 500 plus just for a fortnite skin and not the console you have a problem.
