    @FortniteGame Big issue with 'Spy Within' games: If a player is exactly opposite of me on voting table, I can't properly hit their button, the game keeps thinking I shot central Skip button! Happened to me 2x, I *knew* someone was a Spy (and they were). Lower the Skip button pls!

  • FuneralTortois1 FuneralTortoise (@FuneralTortois1) reported

    @corpse_corener I am a minor and I don't play fortnite anymore and this is why I have problems with women because they always say that our opinions don't matter and always shut us down on everything which makes it hard to find someone you trust and can be yourself around

  • everytimebiebs 🌻 •Ä𝐫ï• 👑 (@everytimebiebs) reported

    @mistyfornite @KingEgilZ @FortniteGame You only get vbucks if you yourself have purchased save the world. If thats not the issue then maybe it expired?

  • Fas7Eddi3 Victory or Valhalla (@Fas7Eddi3) reported

    @xKozaa @Speros_OG @Activision Apex doesn’t generate the volume cod does. Fortnite does to a degree but they too had issues from what I’ve been told. Regardless if you made the game $50 dollars you cut down cheaters significantly.

  • iamjonshadwell Jon (@iamjonshadwell) reported

    They nerfed the charge again wtf. Purple charge is doing nothing. 74 to the head just now. Is this how you fix your shotgun meta? @FortniteGame

  • Patrick60382808 🖤 Memento Mori 💭 (@Patrick60382808) reported
