    @K4Ch0P0_2000 @Artizzlol Do not accept there account Dude it will get Banned because they are breaking Terms of Service (you don't rightfully own it) My advice is to have your own Fortnite account better be safe than sorry

  • InjectRoseToxin ‘ The Toxic Champ. Not @/WWE_MandyRose ( Parody ) (@InjectRoseToxin) reported

    📱: Am I the only one seeing that Twitter is malfunctioning. Did the Fortnite season finale crash on Twitter as well?

  • shifter_quick 🔴Quick Shifter IS LIVE (@shifter_quick) reported

    @BlxrryFN @astronova_yt the reality is if you didn't crash.. you still wouldn't have enjoyed the event because you prefer more action-packed finales.. Fortnite did hype it up a lot but the more you think about the name of the event and the keyart of the event you'll understand the foreshadowing.

  • EvanThrockmort1 Nave Morton (@EvanThrockmort1) reported

    @FortniteGame Reset back to season one and fix your game

  • xxkiwiguyxx34 francis pahl (@xxkiwiguyxx34) reported

    @JaceJac02795580 @Xx_treestorm_xX @FNBRintel Jace if u was in the event and not got to carry on like many people that got booted because fortnite had a issue then try to get back in to carry on but can't what would u do

  • ItsDavid6564 David 🦫 (@ItsDavid6564) reported

    @DonaldMustard THE FORTNITE LOOP IS FINALLY BROKEN?

  • TessaIzHere 🎗Merry Tessa Tickleballs (@TessaIzHere) reported

    @CarryFaze @ItzJupiter3 @BetterFNnews They were in the map, but nothing was even confirmed to happen with them. One of the biggest problems with the Fortnite comunity is news channels taking things as fact, when they aren't, and spreading misinformation

  • 0xCubeCounter ⬡.anon (@0xCubeCounter) reported

    @FortniteGame Lol finally started playing and you morons still have it broken 6 hours later

  • Aidennyun Aiden  | half ia ☁︎ ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა (@Aidennyun) reported

    @BarginbinG1 @FortniteGame It’s Nintendo, somehow they always have a problem when connecting

  • AndrewFrisina1 Feareika Pendragon (@AndrewFrisina1) reported

    @theraggedyman19 Yeah. It was more in response to a comment someone made within. Just 'cause popular thing does a thing with obscure franchise doesn't mean it'll catch on. Especially if the source material isn't clear. That was the song from BMTH's problem. Fortnite however? Tons of clarity

  • bartisawesome Kotex (@bartisawesome) reported

    @FortniteGame Hopefully you have fixed SBMM so trashbag sweats can't glitch into lower skilled lobbies because they suck against people their own skill level

  • FlamingExtreme FlamingExtreme (@FlamingExtreme) reported

    @FortniteGame Too bad because some of us couldn’t play it because it wouldn’t let us sign in. #wastedpotential

  • Weinhards_ Henry Weinhard (@Weinhards_) reported

    @Etanibrut @ElonStnsTakinLs @FortniteGame thattt doesnt count lmao, thats like calling crash a pc exclusive

  • nistrah nistrah (@nistrah) reported

    @EckhartsLadder But to be live service and have a strong flow of content for years- unfortunately you’ll have to have things aren’t playing into the identity of Halo. Fortnite’s identity was building with no sprint, no slide etc. Look what happened with all that lol

  • noam_nb Halloween Time ! 🎃 (@noam_nb) reported

    FORTNITE FIX THE DUMB SCREEN #FortniteFixTheCampfireScreenNow

  • iJoshuadevin Joshua Devin (@iJoshuadevin) reported

    @FortniteGame Why is your game still down? Do you not know what happens when an addict can’t get his fix ?! Don’t take me to that point please lol

  • WoopB_ Woop 🐀 (@WoopB_) reported

    @EzekielYoder @FortniteGame I'm on an original Xbox One and it worked perfectly. Seems the issues aren't hardware based and just luck based. There weren't many REAL issues though, just people who were late to the event and thought that it was bug.

  • LT4090 LucasT4090 (@LT4090) reported

    @Zen_Brenda5 @FortniteGame I'm so sorry, I was among the lucky ones who didnt get kicked. Best of luck playing the new chapter tomorrow! Hoping for no issues for the rest of this launch period. Hope she enjoys it.

  • SteveMcQuarkJr No (@SteveMcQuarkJr) reported

    I should clarify I have no problem with Doomguy crossovers or flossing or shooting DBZ beams at Rick and Morty, I just think Fortnite is Morally and Artistically bankrupt

  • Mxjcia123 Majajajajaja (@Mxjcia123) reported

    @ShiinaBR So so so so sad..... fortnite need to fix their servers

  • thejoshknight Josh Knight (@thejoshknight) reported

    @jpansparkq @EckhartsLadder And let’s be honest, S2 and winter update is still not enough. Look at Fortnite or COD. Those are real live service games with tons of updates and content. 343 simply cannot keep up with a live service game. Don’t know why they thought they could.

  • RomanovBrittany Momma Wolf1967 (@RomanovBrittany) reported

    @Artizzlol You do not own your Fortnite accounts, so that means you can not give it away or sell it as this will be going against Terms of Service Basically you can not give something that you don't rightfully own away

  • MckerveyKyle Elmoswrldd (@MckerveyKyle) reported

    @NBABatBoy_ @FortniteGame You gotta be an npc 💀nobody says **** like this, this is literally a skill issue

  • xx_Legohood_xx Legohood (@xx_Legohood_xx) reported

    @ashante_bacon typical fortnite problems

  • SoullessHug MJK (@SoullessHug) reported

    @evankinney Fix Fortnite

  • xxkiwiguyxx34 francis pahl (@xxkiwiguyxx34) reported

    @ShiinaBR Donald mustard should say sorry to the people that got booted during the live event and could not get back in because fortnite had a issue which is their way of saying a problem

  • purpunkin purp 🗿 (@purpunkin) reported

    @EzekielYoder @WoopB_ @FortniteGame It's probably because of how many people were on fortnite so cause the servers to crash, happens to every game

  • SomeRan76143299 SomeRandomGuyWithAChannelOnYouTube (@SomeRan76143299) reported

    @EvadepurityII @FortniteGame Epic is fully aware of the issue and they were working on fixing it

  • DistortedCCOO ZPG DistortedDagger (🇳🇴/🇺🇦) (@DistortedCCOO) reported

    Is it just me or does anyone realize when mrBeast on camera he rarely swears and is all hyped and stuff and then i'll see this fricking podcast where cussing ******** out I have no problem with it just thought it was funny (congrats jimmy on fortnite) #mrbeast #Fortnite #Trending

  • WoopB_ Woop 🐀 (@WoopB_) reported

    @EzekielYoder @purpunkin @FortniteGame You probably WERE late, Epic just sucks at telling you. Normally they lock matchmaking once their servers hit close to capacity to give some wiggle room to prevent errors. This results in especially hyped events getting filled before it starts. Keep this in mind for next time!
