    @RebootRoyale why are the servers super laggy for me? I always feel like I am on 200 ping. I play in Europe and with the other creative maps on fortnite and the original fortnite game modes I don’t have any lag

  • Thickboy_sci 🧪𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭 🧪 (@Thickboy_sci) reported

    A real scientist never admits when things aren't looking good. they just say huh, that's different and quietly retreat to their lab to try and fix it. So huh that's different. #thescientist #Fortnite

  • silver_ember Ember Silver (@silver_ember) reported

    Fortnite. Trade offer here. I'm being serious @FortniteGame Put every community battle item in the shop. Every banner, emoticon, and spray from these events. The exclusivity is insulting to the creators. Fix the mistake. FOMO is predatory and highly immoral.

  • vanquishedwish wish (@vanquishedwish) reported

    fortnite isnt 144 consistently with max settings + epic lumien on and dips to like 92 sometimes. other than that 0 issues

  • BailsThePotato BailsThePotato | EMOTE ARTIST (@BailsThePotato) reported

    My fortnite friends list is busted. Can’t see anyone online/friends at all, can’t receive invites, friends can’t join on me. Someone pls help. Lol Restarting game, PC, and launcher doesn’t fix either.

  • faabeIi 𓁟 (@faabeIi) reported

    @lappland one of my friends who has the same problem says it doesn't affect them if the game is in 3rd person :0 so games like fortnite work for them

  • EliMckee11 Eli Mckee (@EliMckee11) reported

  • DemandtrufreedM DemandTruFreeDom (@DemandtrufreedM) reported

    @Treyarch while y'all waist our time with your bs and trans support disrespectful **** we're playing Fortnite and other games. Shut up and fix your game and stand with the players not with a dude in a dress. Actual clown world 🤡🌍

  • adamsyfnbr adamsyfnbr (@adamsyfnbr) reported

    @FortniteGame FIX YOUR GAME MY KINETIC BLADE DOESNT WORKKKKKKKKK.

  • neosborin neosborin.eth🤍🕊 (@neosborin) reported

    @Eljaboom play2earn is not the issue the issue is what are we earning? is it something gamers want or can capitalize? i think fortnite partnership skin is a good model for example i will play to earn a partnership skin that i want & plus if it has value in secondary market even better

  • parisxhkk Paris HK (@parisxhkk) reported

    Sick of this fortnite sound glitch keep having to restart my PS and restart my stream 😭💀 @EpicGames pls fix!!!

  • ColinEspMusic Punished Cogglesz (@ColinEspMusic) reported

    @ImstillDadaddy I feel like this connection era originated from unreal engine 4. That also wasn't initially developed to have multiplayer, SF5 runs on a 7-8 year old version of it before the likes of fortnite came around and they fixed a lot of these issues. I don't think this can be patched :(

  • burberrytommy tommy from 3033 (@burberrytommy) reported

    Why would fortnite log me out how would any person in the entire world remember their epic games login

  • KnightOfGod2004 ✝️KnightOfGod3204🇺🇸 (@KnightOfGod2004) reported

    @FNCompetitive Neither. I'm not into competitive. I may be good at FN (Especially when it comes to aim) but with all the Hell Fortnite gives me, I wouldn't do that great in competitive. Currently dealing with lag and the freaking Epic Games Support doesn't know jack squat and can't help me out.

  • ToastPatrol29 ToastPatrol29 (@ToastPatrol29) reported

    Streaming is not going well today... Fortnite was lagging hardcore, my stream kept failing, got some copyright notices because I was listening to music...guess we'll try again tomorrow!

  • DonnySC DonnySC (@DonnySC) reported

    Started up Fortnite causes my sound to deteriorate until I'm left with nothing but loud static. All audio drivers and hardware were replaced at some point during testing. Other games also don't produce this result. Anyone else run into this issue? @raybenefield

  • kabbentv kabbentv (@kabbentv) reported

    Kinetic blade is broken now. #fortnite

  • NelsunK_ ItsPlaymo (@NelsunK_) reported

    @Tacos_281 @RebootRoyale They can't, it's an issue with fortnite itself

  • BobReal1234 Spooky (@BobReal1234) reported

    @NightmareGamYT @Darkvizionz @FortniteGame no problem

    Guys I am very mortified by what is happening. In poor substances, I'm having some health problems 😑. Now I am hospitalized, I hope to recover so as to bring everyone back fortnite leaks.

  • EliMckee11 Eli Mckee (@EliMckee11) reported

    @EpicNewsroom Discord needs to be ban in solo Fortnite it is being used for teaming and bullying epic games I have made multiple reports of this issue and nothing is happening

  • u_unkie unkie jonboy (@u_unkie) reported

    @StillWacky @Reese10Angel @***** Seriously? If the person she directed it at doesn't have a problem you shouldn't either. I bet you or your child emote after a kill on fortnite what's the difference

  • EdwinGlimmer Professor DREADWIN 🏳️‍🌈 (@EdwinGlimmer) reported

    My biggest problem with the Switch is that its trying so hard to be a PS4/XBOne, like is it cool that i can play Doom 2016 or Borderlands 2 or Fortnite on my Switch? Yeah…until that performance and graphic struggle kick in!

  • TRyizen #WTJ SnapzSki (@TRyizen) reported
