    Support informed me that they are receiving the same error from some players, what we have to do is wait. If you want to contribute to the solution of this problem I suggest that you send the most recent logs from Fortnite and the Epic Games Launcher you have via support.

  • Sergey7001 Sergey (@Sergey7001) reported

    @Bloxy_News @Roblox @Fortnite I remember when Roblox was having server problems bc adopt me had 1 million players

  • KeenKolo Andrew Kolo (@KeenKolo) reported

    @ThelVanDamne Fortnite was new at the time and in beta for the battle royal mode. Halo is a known quantity that reserved legacy playlists such as SWAT and Fiesta for “live-service content.” These two things are not equal. Plus you have to contend with the fact it was promised at launch.

  • HeatHazeTobacco Homophobic Slenderman (@HeatHazeTobacco) reported

    @ClickTheBob @Fortnite @FortniteStatus They need to Fix the Bob

  • Treeeeevooooor Trevor (@Treeeeevooooor) reported

    @FortniteStatus @Fortnite Every time I log into the game, it has the previous day’s quests still active. Doesn’t refresh unless I close out the game and open it again. Is there a fix?

  • johnnyj935 Johnny J935 (@johnnyj935) reported

    @EpicGamesBackup when will you fix constant lag on switch 2 version of fortnite?

  • Aspect_180 Aspect (@Aspect_180) reported

    @FortniteStatus can you fix an error many people are having when loading in fortnite on pc “failed to download supervised settings”

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    Imagine you're in Fortnite, and your base (like a server) needs a special pass (certificate) to prove it's legit. This pass comes from a trusted HQ (certificate authority). The issue @frizkedblizz posted might be like finding a glitch where someone can fake this pass to sneak into your base or run commands as the leader (like SYSTEM access). It could be serious, like a hack (e.g., CVE-2025-33073), but it might also be a normal base process or a glitch Epic already fixed. Without seeing the glitch, it’s hard to say if it’s a real threat or just part of the game. Keep your base updated and use extra defenses like two-factor traps to stay safe.

    @TimSweeneyEpic Fortnite mobile needs to be optimized and iOS tournaments are needed to revive the once dead community. Mobile community is dying they need their savior which is you. The FPS on all devices is so bad drops very low, game gets very hot, ipad pros no longer having 120 fps.Problems

  • WillieDunlow Willie Dunlow (@WillieDunlow) reported

    @FortniteStatus Playing on PS5 console have deleted Fortnite. Reinstalled, verified licenses and still cannot log into fortnite. Reset router and still login times out. Please advise.

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    In Fortnite terms, Israel launched a surprise attack, like a pro player sniping Iran's "base" (nuclear sites) to stop them from crafting a game-changing "weapon." Iran fought back, launching "rockets" at Israel's "builds" (cities like Tel Aviv), trying to defend their turf. Brazil's Lula is like a squad leader yelling on comms that this fight could crash the whole "server" (world peace), warning everyone to chill before the "storm" (war) wipes out the map. Both sides have legit reasons, but it’s a risky build battle that could end in a total squad wipe.

    why do people say “this game will fizzle out in a year” about single player games like that’s a bad thing. that’s okay. not every game needs to be some live service Fortnite bullshit that lasts your entire childhood.

  • ElONDON_THEGOAT Elondon Hill (@ElONDON_THEGOAT) reported

    @HYPEX Why didn’t they make the Peter griffin skin like the body Cleveland brown skin pls tell Fortnite to fix that

  • Based_Fortnite Based on info provided (@Based_Fortnite) reported

    @legacyyuchiha Fortnite console com is genuinely infinite content glitch man where do these kids spawn from 😭😭😭

  • KobsI71431 kobs ishot (@KobsI71431) reported

    @TimSweeneyEpic people keep talking about how to improve UEFN but the main problem is that Fortnite is not accesible to a lot of kids and the game editor is way less accessible. U gotta download a 100 gigabytes but roblox is only 500mb. And u cant run Fortnite on half of the crap phones 1/2

  • MtKillaLFG MtKilla (@MtKillaLFG) reported

  • dzdominator Nonsensical Raven (@dzdominator) reported

    @Fortnite Can you give an update on the login problem it is not fixed for a lot of us. And I have done all the trouble shooting things you suggested nothing works still says login timed out whenever I try to play. But rocket league can load just fine. So it's just a Fortnite thing.

  • rollbrella Xia 🏳️‍⚧️ (@rollbrella) reported

    @KDragnev35390 @gorkakas @tonspam66 idk bout you but i can even play Fortnite and BL2 well with Firefox open so maybe it's a skill issue

    @BackersGamesF I sadly can't play any of the Fortnite seasons until I get a new console, My switch has immense over heating problems and not to mention that it kicked me out of my Nintendo account so I can't even access the E-Shop to be able to get V-Bucks or any games 🥀🥀
