    @AyameWilson Same for me here , i have the same exact problem and it keeps saying data corrupted delete the game in Fortnite

  • CodeFoxDev CodeFox - FNBR Leaks (@CodeFoxDev) reported

    @FortniteStatus I'm sorry but I can't see a true, valid reason to be upset at epic for bringing back rare cosmetics, they can do that it's not against the law or something. I mean really people, there are alot bigger issues in this world than fortnite bringing back a rare emote. Give me a break.

  • AshTheExiled Ashley Vivian ⚡️❤️ (@AshTheExiled) reported

  • nosirrxh nosii (@nosirrxh) reported

    I physically don't have the Augment option in my Keybinds on @FortniteGame so I can't change it from 7. Any one else had this issue? The option isnt even there!!! 🥲

  • JPBOLDY JonTheJoker76 (@JPBOLDY) reported

    @FortniteGame Unfortunately it's stuttering laggy mess that needs patching asap on the Xbox series X, and yes I've switched off by mains and rebooted and reinstalled and still same issues even when your waiting for a match

  • JussPlayy Juss (@JussPlayy) reported

    CoD should of never made a “Warzone 2” the sequel gives everyone the excuse it’s a “New Game” so let’s dismiss the issues. Apex & Fortnite competing BRs never made a sequel they always update there game to give the users the best experience while CoD ***** us for money every way

  • MarkWix2 Mark Wix SCD (@MarkWix2) reported

    Dear @FortniteGame @EpicGames @DonaldMustard PLEASE Vault the Flipping RPG'S. Also FIX the SCAR'S on #PS5 They take about 10 years to reload. #Fortnite

  • mannythageek Manny Tha Geek (@mannythageek) reported

    @Old_Hermit_Ben @ModernWarzone COD is competitive, if you cannot compete with PC players then you’re trash, stay off the game and stick to playing Fortnite. Can’t believe you’re complaining, even with aim assist being broken you winnies are complaining about PC players. Ridiculous.

  • naturesbless naturesbless (@naturesbless) reported

    @gg_Hyphy Licensing, EA, and artistic direction. Fortnite does not exist in a "lore" and thus can do kind of whatever it wants. This include crazy content. The engine is an issue. The ability of the team to build is an issue due to the size of the team given budgetary issues.

  • Carnivol Stian Schultz (@Carnivol) reported

    @ResidentDante @scully1888 The likes of Apex Legends, DOOM Eternal, and Fortnite's already on Switch. CoD should have no problem joining their ranks if the studio/publisher wanted to slot it into their production budget.

  • sori1325 sori (@sori1325) reported

    @FortniteGame Late game so lag in all platforms

  • Gliff14919418 Gliff (@Gliff14919418) reported

    @FNStatusBR FORTNITE IS HAVING A PROBLEM ON PS4 THAT WHEN MY BROTHERS AND I PLAY IN SPLIT SCREEN IT'S GIVING A LOT OF BUGS I NEED YOU TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING BECAUSE IT'S DAMAGING A LOT OF BUGS Retweet this message for them to view and resolve

  • yesitsvrbl itsvrbl (@yesitsvrbl) reported

    Warzone 2.0 is garbage. The new fortnite update is garbage (but looks nice) Callisto Protocol launched as a broken mess. The only fun things to play right now are the new WoW expansion and a mobile card game. Wtf is happening.

  • wizkelisha18 Special K ♉ (@wizkelisha18) reported

    @FortniteGame Fix the damn glitches!

  • ditzycowgirll 💗🗡️🎀🕊️ (@ditzycowgirll) reported

    @FortniteGame glitch we can’t sprint 🥸….

  • Revated Revated (@Revated) reported

    @FortniteGame Also FIX YOUR SERVERS. My shot got cancelled out while fighting. Ping was fine at 50ms but your server decided to rule out my shot as non-existence and didn't do damage at close range.

  • itsroninlol Ronin (@itsroninlol) reported

    @FortniteGame fortnite it literally takes ages for u guys to fix a things , Brightness percentage broken, High meshes, etc… and plz stop making useless change ex: for the settings pages looks like ,it's not important or *** the crosshair looks like. it's useless

  • JPBOLDY JonTheJoker76 (@JPBOLDY) reported

    @TimSweeneyEpic the new Fortnite season for Xbox series X is suffering from stutter and lag, it's a mess at the moment and not a pleasant gaming experience needs patching asap

  • HylianDorito Okora (@HylianDorito) reported

  • JaydenR22138611 BlouBlou (@JaydenR22138611) reported

    @FortniteGame Please add performance mode to all consoles it is not fair that only PC players have access to this mode, I just want a better experience. I have been experiencing lag in my 4-half year old console while playing creative matches and same with Other players.

  • Richwrightdun Richard wright-dungar (@Richwrightdun) reported

    @FortniteGame Great season. Not so hyped for the battle pass rewards. Though. MAJOR problem with bug on xbox splits screen. Sprint ability keeps disappearing and missions tab not accessible while in game. Very frustrating.

  • thee_spider_dad Derek Howard (@thee_spider_dad) reported

  • mr_xfactorTTV MrXFactor (@mr_xfactorTTV) reported

    Honest to god in terms of overall gameplay this season of Fortnite is the worst of all time. No mats, overpowered bullshit, fix things or people will quit watch!

  • FatherOriley Eternal.OnTikTok🙏 (@FatherOriley) reported

    Learned to live with hammer (after taking 2 days to look to the left to see to bounce its right click) but god damn it @FortniteGame remove the RPG and fix the shotgun, smg, and AR. I've seen/died to an RPG 3 of the past 5 or 6 games and the weapons suck to aim and do damage🤮👎
