  • RezmelaL rezmela-lead (@RezmelaL) reported

    @philiprosedale It's interesting that Cathie Wood from Ark Invest once mentioned Fortnite, Roblox and others as disruptive tech and something to watch... and I was thinking, man, we've been there before (SL) ... and the problems then.. are still here today... unsolved.

  • DerBeatzZ DΞR|BΞΛTZZ® (@DerBeatzZ) reported

    @FortniteStatus @FortniteGame I hope that the error messages in the middle of the game and the long waiting times in the loading screen are also resolved. It's not fun to sit in front of the loading screen for 5-10 minutes.

  • sa7eralbasmah ساحر البسمه (@sa7eralbasmah) reported

    @AskPlayStation For everyone Please do not buy a ps5 right now Most ps4 games do not run on it Example: Crash Spyro Fifa19 Gang 3 on 3 Fortnite Need for payback Future Gt All these games have been purchased and are not compensated I am in the process of filing a legal complaint

  • Bellamuertez1 luna (@Bellamuertez1) reported

    @IIivxoo I KNOWWWW I’m not trying to come for you or nothing but I was just happy to see a model who looks more like real people in my family and I hate to see all the hate shes getting for her features cus fortnite has a problem with white features in my opinion😭maybe it’s not that deep

  • Code23Hyper 🏮23Hyper 🥷 (@Code23Hyper) reported

    @storyheadjillmc The issue might be more about your internet connection than the chrome book. Have you tried this on anynother devices like a wired PC? If the chrome book is just on wifi (no direct connection) it could be dropping the connection. R is always disconnecting when we play fortnite

  • prizmafishy Prizma (@prizmafishy) reported

    @benjyfishy Epic is a fxcking trash company, that's te most bad idea, console players are goat's, the pc players have exit lag, exit delay, that's situation is injustice, but etc, etc, nice, no console fncs, thanks fortnite!

  • skajohnny Johnny Stockdill (@skajohnny) reported

    @GuyGrumpy @ClarkHELLSCREAM Yeah, but you already can't chat with your opponent. if you're tilted by emotes, I feel there are other issues at play. It's like getting t-bagged in Halo, or emoted when you die in Fortnite.

  • austinaboii Austinaboii (@austinaboii) reported

    @FortniteGame I think there is a glitch in your game called IO Guards

    Nobozy forget that Fortnite sucks in general. It has nothing to do with the prize pool. The game just has so many issues

  • CarlosG78645590 Carlos Gonçalves (@CarlosG78645590) reported

    @GameRant @FortniteGame billions of dollars later, that and many more technical problems.

  • PadsterFB Padster (@PadsterFB) reported

    Honestly wish someone bought @FortniteGame from @EpicGames and fixed the issues... those guys want the game to die clearly.. inconsistent guns, audio issues, bugs, RNG sucks lately, 0 “common” minis.. GG

  • TerumiFor GamingCelebi #ReimuForSmash (@TerumiFor) reported

    The characters that come to my mind would probably be Loyd Irving, Crash, and Ryu Hayabusa in no particular order for the main ones. And as much as I hate to admit it Fortnite is still possible thanks to the No Comment from Donald Mustard so that could still happen.

  • LukasBudrys8 Lukas Budrys (@LukasBudrys8) reported

    @FortniteGame The game is lagging if I want to play solo I then I’m in creative

  • AliSoaida Ali Soaida (@AliSoaida) reported
