  • silver_ember Ember Silver (@silver_ember) reported

    Looks like real money purchases have been disabled ahead of the Fortnite event. Though, this could just be a me issue and would like to know if anybody else is seeing it.

  • pokidokipanic silo bites the dust (@pokidokipanic) reported

    I’m already in fortnite on ps4 so i should be good, but seriously? Problems on the one day there should be none

  • JV0G4N v0g4n (@JV0G4N) reported

    @FortniteGame Ok, straight up; Nerf/Vault the Drum Shotgun! From all the times I’ve been eliminated, was because of the drum, around 75% of the time. It is insanely fast, way too powerful, and no gun is currently as broken as the drum shotgun. Maybe vault it next season?

  • CubUntameable UntameableLuna (@CubUntameable) reported

    Epic Games has pushed a hotfix to Playstation 4 & 5 that might fix the recent connectivity issues those consoles were experiencing. #Fortnite

    just launched fortnite after not playing in a bit and i have so bad fps. Do you have the same problem or is it just because i didnt launch the game in a bit so my pc have to get used to it?

  • MinusDragonz Dragonz (@MinusDragonz) reported

  • BlGCHUNGUS moonbow.7z (@BlGCHUNGUS) reported

    I have been tryna log onto fortnite for 24 minutes only to find there was no issue with fn and the PSN servers were down bruh 😭😭

  • aggressa Black Elmo (Cobra Kai) (@aggressa) reported

    @JAAY_ROCK_ Service based games will probably be so. Their goal is to make a perpetual revenue generating platform. Sony wants its own Fortnite/Apex which was the reason for the purchase. I am expecting iOS, Switch, PC, Android and even Xbox (yuck 🤮) to be targets for some games.

  • FunkyK007 FunkyK007 (@FunkyK007) reported

    I need something to do for the next 3 and a half hours before the Fortnite live event so that I don't fall alseep. So fa I've hyped myself up on sugar but I'm probably gonna crash soon

  • AlfPipe13 Alfie🇬🇷 (@AlfPipe13) reported from Newport, Wales

    @AskPlayStation Hi, I’m not sure if this issue has already been addressed by others but whenever I try and play certain PS5 games, it crashes my system entirely and I have to unplug it all to turn it back on. Mainly Fifa 22 and Fortnite, WWE2K22 seems to be fine though. Thanks👍🏻

  • FNGameUpdates Fortnite Updates (@FNGameUpdates) reported

    Epic has resolved an issue that was causing a rise in PlayStation instability. The Collision event doors open at 3:30 PM ET! #Fortnite

  • ScouseCraigy ScouseCraigy (@ScouseCraigy) reported

    I honestly couldn't give a **** what the new Fortnite season or map or guns are going to be like aslong as there is no lag, PC players are capped at 120fps, late game arena comes back and all the zenners, cheaters and aimbotters are banned permanently.

  • KngMiyr 👑𝕯𝖆𝖍𝖒𝖎𝖞𝖗🌎 (@KngMiyr) reported

    @fortnite if y’all don’t bring back the stick emote by cardi b we gonna have some problems

  • DhairyaFN DhairyaFN (@DhairyaFN) reported

  • HbeitG Hossein BG (@HbeitG) reported

  • jspxrr JΛSPΣR (@jspxrr) reported

    @Flame_Boy23 @Lawy3D @FortniteGame Why is that a problem?🤔

  • Shade2x Shade2x (@Shade2x) reported

    @ConcealedRose7 @muselk @FortniteGame Except every comp player cares. And the servers are worse than they were when we had all the crazy items in comp like crash pads, shockwaves and rift and stuff. And comp needs to be here for the game to be slightly relevant

  • FaCasper CEO Casper (@FaCasper) reported

    Quiting fortnite at 4pm est. i’ve had a long run since season 1 but it’s clearly not working out for me .

  • kilohwyd xKiloh🌟 (@kilohwyd) reported

    @FortniteGame wanna make the game good again? Step 1. bring back pumps with 200s Step 2. Fix the hud, it’s trash Step 3. Bring back scars. Step 4. Take out drums and autos.

  • Saazaii sooz (@Saazaii) reported

    @Husbunned I play fortnite and I'm always hitting with the shotguns, usually use drum or striker, auto is good too if nothing else. I think 2 I might have a little more trouble on shooting, but I think that's the point cause they do more damage if you do hit.

  • Alex_Smith1984 Alex Smith (@Alex_Smith1984) reported

    @FortniteGame I can’t buy Vbucks is there a glitch right now?

  • SmokeCapone SmokeCapone (@SmokeCapone) reported

    @RomeGoLARGE Honestly man I been thinking madden should be where games like fortnite and counter strike are as far as the tourney scene but people cheat and glitch too much and it killed itself off sadly
