  • JenOutpost Jen (@JenOutpost) reported

    I have this terrible shotgun glitch, nearly every time I'm having a fight & I'm pulling the trigger, it keeps either trying to reload (even though I'm not hitting reload) or switiching spastically to my next weapon. I literally can't play like this 😢 @FortniteGame #fortnite

  • saifull31265586 saif ullah (@saifull31265586) reported

    fortnite needs to fix the stinger smg and shotgun damage plzzz hits for 20 damage

  • cminionx32 Cmini0n (@cminionx32) reported

    @EastonS_101 @FNBRintel @FortniteGame That sounds right and most did not even try the combat AR just grab mk cause they think it is still broken like last season even though nerfed recently by 2 damage again. I know what I wish would win in the votes coming up but I doubt they will. I want combat AR and balloons

  • madman2980 Christopher Gray (@madman2980) reported

    @Prof_Kankles I'd argue that live service games with constant updates/patches really started with League of Legends long before Fortnite. All through league's beta up until around 2013 they were releasing a new champion to play every 2-4 weeks, alongside constant 2 week balance patches

  • OrbitalJohnny Johnny Orbital (@OrbitalJohnny) reported

    @TennuOwo @Xero_Space @FortniteGame Epic clearly state its for if you have audio issues not: 'do you want on screen targets to make your game much easier? use audio visualisation' it's shocking how many people are defending people cheating

  • _GoldBird GoldBird 🌌🐤 (@_GoldBird) reported

    @KoderJM @FortniteGame maybe but we still need a fix for it

  • OrbitalJohnny Johnny Orbital (@OrbitalJohnny) reported

    @KistKalle @Xero_Space @FortniteGame loud house, hearing problems, broken headphones etc are all legit reasons to use them just to get on screen targets isn't a legit reason, that's when it's being exploited

    @OF24com @FortniteGame Why ******** is having a separate mode with no affect on you such an issue?

  • xwaferr wafergraal (@xwaferr) reported

    @WootingKB When using 2 monitors, while playing fortnite cursor just goes to the other monitor and makes the game tab out. The tips for this problem in software (not to go in to inventory while pressing w) does not help.

  • bonzisinner bonziula(C (@bonzisinner) reported

    @AChevyWolf still cant win in fortnite skill issue

  • OrbitalJohnny Johnny Orbital (@OrbitalJohnny) reported

    @jjjh199 @FortniteGame you're wrong Epic clearly state its for if you have audio issues using it WITHOUT audio issues is literally cheating maybe when you feel that you're good enough you can take the training wheels off? Epic will end up removing it if people keep using it as a cheat

  • Le7t0xz Le7tuxz (@Le7t0xz) reported

    @ModernWarzone Fortnite: I don't like it anymore but I like because they removed building Apex legends: broken (u will get it when you play it) Warzone: Hackers broken weapons and all sorts of stuff like that Pubg: It's fun So my final answer is BABJI

  • nathanielq_fn NathanielQuincy (@nathanielq_fn) reported

    @therealEvaderJ @FortniteGame @Xbox For me, when I first played with a controller I thought I’d never be able to hit a shot but eventually got used to it. Maybe not a problem for you, Mr No Weapons

    @FortniteGame Ghost enforcer should NOT have skin, his hands are mechanical and so should his legs but instead hes got little human pudding legs. PLEASE FIX THIS IM BEGGING YOU!

  • 66Xeno Dakuderp (They/Them) 🎃♠️ (@66Xeno) reported

    I may have a problem. I started playing Fortnite to see what the big deal was and I fully expected to play one game before I uninstalled it. Several games later and a Battlepass bought, I'm truly enjoying the game. It's dumb but weirdly enjoyable.
