    @ModernWarzone I tried to go back. But being on console 80FOV ain’t the way forward. Feels horrible. So it’s chopped for console players. If they don’t fix Warzone 2 it’s gonna be back to fortnite for me.

    @EpicNewsroom ever since the recent Fortnite update, I’ve been trying to launch epic games and it doesn’t launch, it just says “please wait while we start your update” and it doesn’t change. How can I fix this?

  • Anthonydtapia93 Twitch.tv/a1Solution 🎮 (@Anthonydtapia93) reported

    @EA @NBA2K I honestly think NBA games should of stopped at NBA LIVE 19. It was a perfect game, looks good... The could of overhauled graphics in time like Fortnite.. Make it live service. Etc. Update rosters. Fix bugs. Just do battle passes. Get sick gear etc.

  • Angeliagriggs5 🎓Angeliagriggs🎓 (@Angeliagriggs5) reported

    I’ve been playing Fortnite since the early access release and I’ve never had this much trouble. Every few games I get kicked for inactivity or the game crashes and I get a suspension and sr loss. It’s really unfair that I can’t even reach a higher rank because of this issue.

  • x_Faeliin_x Faeliin (@x_Faeliin_x) reported

    Fortnite is goofy. They make millions off of ppl, but are too lazy to fix their game. #oof

  • Samura1_JD JD (@Samura1_JD) reported

    Fortnite is a weird *** game.. Every time I was about to win, it would lag for no reason... When I quick scoped people game for no reason crashed. I died everytime I shot once or twice with any type of gun and everyone else took about 20 shots to go down.... sensing a pattern

  • thebigchill83 Kick.com/thebigchill83 (@thebigchill83) reported

    The other night I streamed Fortnite. I don't play it much as I am a D2 streamer but after all the hiccups and issues. I had 1 top 10 2 top 5 ( one was a second place ) with a total of 8 kills . Not to bad for a guy who doesn't play it much. Maybe that will change soon? Interested

  • catpawshoe Catpawshoe (@catpawshoe) reported

    @Nova_Jay_ @FNCreate @FortniteGame Hopefully an update will fix this in the near future

  • IKARUS11292 IKΛRUS (@IKARUS11292) reported

    @CallmeNearly For me it crashes constantly when I work with the terrain tools, too. This is kinda frustrating, but a pure performance problem of the software. Solving these should be top priority for @FortniteGame. We have enough cool functions to Play with, now we just need a stable system.

    @furynae Fortnite is the fix to your problems

  • perlagorman9 perla gorman🫶💎 (@perlagorman9) reported

    Since the new season of Fortnite went live, many players have noticed that the servers are incredibly laggy and unstable. This is causing problems for friends who are trying to spectate or participate in matches together.
