    @MCXL1140 @RedBardIsCool @Hbomberguy Yes but in most games, the dances/emotes are just there for fun. You don't pay for them. Fortnite got on trouble because they are basically selling you dances they had nothing to do with

    @FortniteGame controlla playaaaa!!!!! KBM is absolutely broken anymore. actually I would say its at a huge disadvantage compared to controller, unless u have played kbm for 5 years plus... opther than that anyone can pick a controller up and compete with average players....sad!

  • SunsetteSkye Cynthia S. Skye (@SunsetteSkye) reported

    Among Us isn't even close to the first game in its genre. Fortnite adapting elements from it isn't an ethical problem -- unless you think generic store brand products are ethical problems too? IP law is messy and often unfair because IP *morals* are messy.

  • GGAlwaysonFN Wicked (@GGAlwaysonFN) reported

    @FortniteGame @FortniteStatus @FortniteME 0 PACKETS once in every 15 mins in the MIDDLE EAST server.. Expecting a fix for that.. Thanks

    @FortniteStatus so you know Windows 7 is outdated is a time band and is not updated So most of the programs that do not work like this and fortnite does not work this is to solve the problems they had with the event leaks and other things more than leaks

    Tawna from Crash Bandicoot could easily fit in cartoony games with somewhat realistic proportions like Fortnite. Just saying.

  • TonyMofeed2 MofMusic (@TonyMofeed2) reported

    @fortnite please fix the chat glitch and last game the imposers won while we were in a meeting. I beg to God if you see this epic ,please do not disable the mode but if so you should do it

  • dalast1woke DaLast1Woke (@dalast1woke) reported

    I will say this. The overheating this on the 5a maybe a software issues. An I'm only saying this because my Son games on Fortnite All day long and his phone never shut off due to overheating. I am more likely to lock his phone than for it to have overheating issues.

    @JumpingVortex I don't play fortnite but I don't see an issue with people playing it

  • Ethan95017384 Ethan (@Ethan95017384) reported

  • MatcherMathi mathipereira (@MatcherMathi) reported

    @FortniteStatus suspicious Windows 7 because in Windows 7 fortnite does not work because it is disabled obviously they will solve the problems that occurred with the leaks of the event and something else that was filtered and do not come to filter I assure you

  • EthanJamesNew FakeM4trix 🇿🇦 (@EthanJamesNew) reported

    @FortniteGame The Middle East servers are to crowded causing the server to break all the time. Does that not put anything in the Fortnite crews heads that there are many South African players, so having a shortage of players should not be a problem especially for tournaments.
