  • kissedbyf1re 🙃 (@kissedbyf1re) reported

    .@optimum @OptimumHelp is the worst internet service provider I have ever had. They drop their internet constantly. In the middle of a show? Dropped. Playing Fortnite? Dropped. In the middle of an important work call? Dropped. I don’t have another option in my area for internet.

    Hey @FortniteGame this paradise challenge is ridiculous. Get to storm 6? Really?! That’s what you have for TASK 3? It way to hard. ESPECIALLY for a child to do. You got my son crying over it. Fix it!

    Dear @FortniteGame: please do ANYTHING to fix the PS4 version, which has a growing number of issues. If the Prime Shotgun jump scares me ONE MORE TIME because somebody in the lobby island used it NEAR me and it VIBRATED THE CONTROLLER OFF MY DESK I'm making you pay for repairs

    Ok, so I just ran over and shot Rick Sanchez in Fortnite, and it caused my game to crash Rick is just too powerful

  • BlazeHedgehog Ryan Bloom (@BlazeHedgehog) reported

    All I'm trying to say is that I'm betting there are still a ton of people on the PS4 that would like to continue to enjoy Fortnite, but the worsening performance problems and the simple bugs that persist for patches and patches and patches are starting to make me mad.

  • DUG47650328 DUG (@DUG47650328) reported

    @The_Zoinkster @FortniteGame I honestly dont care those skins are mid/bad but snowflakes should just stfu and not play if they have a problem

  • bimbosaur Corrin (arson arc) (@bimbosaur) reported

    @EpicGames is a borderline unusable service. I don't know if this is typical, but I'm downloading at 1/10th of my normal speeds AND it seems to be eating all of my bandwidth. It shouldn't kneecap my entire computer just to download Fortnite.
