    @EnjoyingShows @t3h_m00kz Except in most regards it DOESN'T make them as much money. Hence why Fortnite CAN afford things and other Games CANNOT! Because these other games are not free, they have a paid live service that offer free to some. Thats why they have half baked updates/cutscenes that suck ***.

    Uhh.. #Fortnite ur bird is broken.

    @some_zelda_nerd fortnite don't have the item shop main game tournaments and like everything else crash and burn challenge (impossible)

  • RaygunAgent Agent Raygun (@RaygunAgent) reported

    @eap1995_ @BlvckParis @FortniteGame And therein lies the problem: marketing items no average player can afford. No middle class parent in their right mind is going to spring for this stuff. Don't get me wrong, it's nice stuff. They should just market their brand on things their player base can actually buy.

    3 years ago I was playing Fortnite with the homies an got an ESPN update that said Kobe & 6(I apologize if I have the numbers wrong) others died in a helicopter crash. RIP KOBE, I had to hate you before I loved you.

  • camodragon007 ...camodragon007... (@camodragon007) reported

    I can’t play #fortnite BR anymore. They either chart or play 24/7. I only get to play a few hours after I get home from a job where I get treated like crap. The game still gets laggy. And they add to much crap in the game and won’t fix the game.

  • HughesnetUS HughesnetUS 🌐 (Parody) (@HughesnetUS) reported

    @AbeilleCombs @HughesNet Sometimes it takes 50-100 tries to connect and sometimes it never does. If you check your speed on your Xbox, you should have 1-3mbs, if not then you won’t be able to play. Only other games I’ve had luck with is Ark (with minimal lag if you can join) and fortnite which can be bad

  • wahlpflichtkurs Wahlpflichtkurs (@wahlpflichtkurs) reported

    @No1AdachiFan @FortniteStatus Fortnite gets money out of it and so does laroi ... I don't see problem here at all. You don't need to buy anything neither play the turnament.

  • IasquaredI Andy Anspach (@IasquaredI) reported

    @TimSweeneyEpic Hi Tim sweeney I, a player of Fortnite would like to know that why was my device banned from playing Fortnite. I even contacted epic games support but they didnt get what is was saying. U are the owner of epic games, so can u look into my problem

  • Carnage4Life Dare Obasanjo (@Carnage4Life) reported

    The “problem” NFT games want to solve is putting 100s of hours into CoD or Fortnite then wanting to resell your earned cosmetics for income. The “solution” is when a game studio makes a hit game then they make it easier for users NOT to pay them by buying 2nd hand cosmetics?🤔

  • KnightOfGod2004 ✝️KnightOfGod3204🇺🇸 (@KnightOfGod2004) reported

    @FortniteGame Cool. How about y'all fix the lag next? Like it's getting ridiculous now. Everything connection wise is fine. Xbox, fine. Multiplayer, fine. My Internet Connection is completely fine, yet Fortnite is freaking lagging for no particular reason. What did I do to deserve this lag?

  • axmFN_ axm (@axmFN_) reported

    Fortnite fix your bugs 😡

  • Callietastrophy Callietastrophic (@Callietastrophy) reported

    On the plus side, it didn't crash! mind that's because it crashed twice and I rage quit and played Fortnite for the rest of the stream, (All of it), but my net kept dropping. I raided out to another streamer who doesnt appear to have twitter. So many smart people now lol.
