Fortnite Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • breadynews bready (@breadynews) reported

    @callout0live @toxicXcr3am @PlayOverwatch dude ftp or not, fortnite never has these issues either which has a massive fan base, there’s server issues on season drop for like 20 minutes and that’s it this is ridiculous

  • TheRealXShadesX XShadesX (@TheRealXShadesX) reported

    @FortniteGame Fix the damn lag making the game unplayable now

  • AnotherDevin Devin Higgins (@AnotherDevin) reported

    @FortniteGame There's an issue on PS5 where the camera controls in the locker are also acting as a scroll button between items making it impossible to view items from different angles/depths.

  • NRD80Y NRD80Y (@NRD80Y) reported

    @FortniteGame @impactcomics issue #5 doesn’t arrive till Friday?

  • iTwerk4Coins ʞɹǝʍ⊥ (@iTwerk4Coins) reported

    @phantomgamer701 @SouthieFromSTW1 @FortniteGame When reporting bugs and errors, the more specific it is, the easier it is to narrow down and fix. I prefer players report as specific as possible.

  • Capt_28 Capt (@Capt_28) reported

    @ECC03K @OverwatchCaval Not many, but that's why Ow 2 actually fixes the issues. What does fortnite do again for its players? Make more trash guns and metas and less unique skins?💀

  • OverlordDan Overlord Dan 🎃 (@OverlordDan) reported

    This new Cobra DMR in Fortnite is absolutely broken 20 bullets and the fire rate is insane if you have a trigger finger which I have so it makes it instantly worth grabbing

  • GamingwithFly Gaming with Fly baby (@GamingwithFly) reported

    @Roblox_RTC All of the games on Roblox are getting Pay To Win and old. Everything is glitchy, and I know u can't fix this because the games are made by otjer people. I deleted Roblox and bought Minecraft, mine coins, cod points, and I tried to buy fortnite bucks but the server is down.

  • callout0live Callout (@callout0live) reported

    @breadynews @toxicXcr3am @PlayOverwatch fortnite has had so many of these issues💀 literally 2 seasons ago their servers came on 3 hrs later than planned

  • GamersGamutYT Gamers Gamut (@GamersGamutYT) reported

    @DarkLink999 Fortnite really got them chasing that dollar hard that’s for sure. Problem is that game went viral. Especially with the kids. It was lightning in a bottle. These companies could come out with 50 live service games and they would never be able to come close to matching that.

  • gayIittlemiya vml rip fanatics :( (@gayIittlemiya) reported

    Fortnite not working actually maybe I need to look for a full time job 💔

  • Lazacat3 Lazacat (@Lazacat3) reported

    @KatyFNCR @FNCreate @FortniteGame No problem, could you give me a clue on the chess secret on your map?

  • MagoGcmnt Mago G (@MagoGcmnt) reported

    @FortniteGame Fix hired bots awareness and aiming... they are worst than stormtroopers, they don't see enemies and when they do they don't hit a f.... shot. Waste of gold bars.

  • horrorshow94 LouiseMalpass (@horrorshow94) reported

    @FortniteGame What is going on with this update? Game kicking my party off, voice chat not working? Laggy asf

  • jdw_06 jdw (@jdw_06) reported

    @OzzinaArcane @TheDapperGreg @TWTHEREDDRAGON Yeah cuz switch runs on older hardware and it'd run at 30fps... it'd have the same problems as Fortnite on there lol and there'd be a huge graphics downgrade

  • 88_plays Shelby (@88_plays) reported

    @FortniteGame On PlayStation it's happening that in the locker room we can navigate with the camera's analog button (which is the right analog) this happened with the recent update, if it's not a bug what can I do to fix it?

  • BulletSweats BulletSweats (@BulletSweats) reported

    With the new update, @FortniteGame launched these new chests which are loud as **** and never stop making noise. Fix your game @EpicGames #Fortnite @FortniteStatus

  • CheckM8Real Joshua Hostetter (@CheckM8Real) reported

    @FortniteGame Epic on switch there is an issue with the right stick for scrolling

  • kingsleyshreve Brad Shreve (@kingsleyshreve) reported

    @FortniteGame today's update still didn't fix an issue my controller does not work unless I enter a match and exit the game and go back in.

  • TheRealVanD Van D (@TheRealVanD) reported

    @FortniteGame since the update on pc my right stick moves the selection in the item shop instead of just rotating the item. Extremely annoying. Please fix! 🙏🏻

  • NBA_Fusion Gogeta Never Unfuse Again (@NBA_Fusion) reported

    @FortniteGame This. Game. Sucks. To sum it up, the pvp system in Fortnite is one of the worst I’ve ever seen in gaming. From the timing being whack due to lag or bugs, terrible meta, bad connection system and more. The game has a great concept of doing things but terrible execution.

  • Psyfireman Psyfireman (@Psyfireman) reported

    @Skarrow9 @GarbageUsernme I didn't say it was a comprehensive list. I was indicating Bungie has something similar to Fortnite, both are "top issues," and neither are fully comprehensive. I don't expect them to update every little item, especially when its a bug that doesn't currently harm the experience.

  • HuTaoOnline HuTao (@HuTaoOnline) reported

    @qnklive + not funny didn't laugh + you're* + grammar issue + go outside + get good + reported + ad hominem + GG! + ur mom+mad about ping smh + + get pinged + lol + dogwater + fortnite kid + get better + Fatherless + no time outside + no friends + bozo + go touch grass + actually go learn

  • ProfessorAmbr0s ProfessorAmbros (@ProfessorAmbr0s) reported

    @ThePhoenixKev I expected it to happen, 😭 Fortnite has the same problem usually when they release a new chapter lmao.

  • aidanstanley01 Aidan Stanley (@aidanstanley01) reported

    @schwanenwald @FortniteGame I’ve got the same issue, I want the loading screen but I’m getting the skin for free. Wish they just left the bundle in for a couple more days

  • ArtWhore55 ArtWhore (@ArtWhore55) reported

    @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS 1. You require a phone number not everyone has one and anyone who bought it is sol if they don't also cricket and metro not working 2. You hid characters behind a ******* battle pass which is dumb as **** 3. Fortnite is ******* better and blizzard you're a **** company!

  • Resurekt_ Resurekt (@Resurekt_) reported

    BREAKING: #Overwatch2 has been delayed 3 days as server issues ruin launch. From Acti-Blizzard: “Overwatch is a mid-tier game. Go play Fortnite.”

  • FakeSupremeOnly MRDAVINCII (@FakeSupremeOnly) reported

    Anyone else having problems with PS4 Fortnite ? #Fortnite

  • PuppetSenpaii Puppet 👻🎃 VTuber (@PuppetSenpaii) reported

    Imagine complaining and crying about server issues on a day 1 launch to @PlayOverwatch This stuff happens on every game launch... You are 1 of millions of players trying to play. If you don't like the que then don't try playing today, go to Fortnite or something kids #overwatch2
