Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • CM_ASTERIA C.M. ASTERIA (@CM_ASTERIA) reported

    @_FRESHPRINTZ_ @joe10970921 @FortniteGame Literally never ran into that glitch so this is new to me.

  • Topsecret111111 Topsecret111111 (@Topsecret111111) reported

    @FortniteStatus Due to an issue Chapter 4 has been disabled. It will be enabled in the next update until then Chapter 3 Season 4 is playable when Fortnite is launched.

  • forever_banana G.O.A.T (@forever_banana) reported

    Fortnite Chapter 4 W guns W Consistency W Heals L map L SBMM If fortnite could just fix those last 2, this chapter might be chapter 1 level.

  • Spladdox Spladdox (@Spladdox) reported

    @lunanovaa_ @bravobunnydlc fair — i think live service can be done well (fortnite is perhaps the pinnacle of that), but D2’s live service is clearly nothing but an attempt to garner money and playtime, it’s just sad

  • Itsdeanntv Dean (@Itsdeanntv) reported

    @ArchHimself I’ve got the same issue, only on fortnite though

  • MashterKoosh !koosh (@MashterKoosh) reported

    @FortniteStatus You should also work on the creativeness of each outfit/skin that comes with it. I'm unsubscribing because the past 3 outfits/skins were complete trash. Also fix the hammer glitch. @FortniteGame

  • ChaoticFear19 ChaoticFear19 (@ChaoticFear19) reported

    Fortnite removed the hammers in the game and now the people abusing the glitch will never win again. Sucks for them xD

  • okaych4y chay (@okaych4y) reported

    Overwatch 2 viewership issue can be condensed down to 3 simple points - Game is better played rather than watched - No main content creator/streamer of like other games have (like Ninja for Fortnite) - and it sucks lol

  • ShermanatorY ShermanatorOnYT (@ShermanatorY) reported

    All y’all in @FortniteGame that exploited the hammer glitch and got it banned, I don’t wanna hear one “there’s no mobility” complaint from you until this is fixed😡

  • 666_tok Toy 666 999 Tik Tok (@666_tok) reported

    @FortniteGame Why volt to the Shockwave hammer we can fix it and bring it back you're taking too much away from the game it's getting boring

  • _GravityLord_ GravityLord (@_GravityLord_) reported

    @adstagaming @Ethan_lugo04 @playrustconsole They are detectable which is why you cannot use these devices on any epic games product (not just Fortnite). Again it’s not our job as players to police servers, this is an issue the devs need to address, period!

  • SirRaven_ SirRaven_ (@SirRaven_) reported

    Haven't really played fortnite in a while due to the bugs and such. Hopefully 23.20 will fix these issues, since I miss playing the game.

  • SomeBadBatter Batter (@SomeBadBatter) reported

    @skullketsu Epic saying they can't do Fortnite on Linux because hackers but they can't even make the base game exploit and glitch free 💀

  • Hannnlaaa Hannah Wincott (@Hannnlaaa) reported

    @Jazwares my son has the fortnite mudflap rc truck and has broken his controller ,is there anyway that we could purchase a new one please ?

  • dt2544683 Dave T (@dt2544683) reported

    @ThisIsITalk @FortniteStatus You must be new. Fortnite is always broken and always will be. Epic are overpaid incompetent losers. If it were up to me they would all be fired.

  • crazaakieboy133 j0lty (@crazaakieboy133) reported

    @SamitoFPS For me it's not so much the AA, but the cross platform balancing they try. I'm like a broken record, but I keep saying I don't think there's a fair balance :P If BR games will "Die" without cross platform, because they can't fill up 60 slots, oh well. Do what Fortnite does. Bots.

  • Wizard__OW Wizard🥉 (@Wizard__OW) reported

    @EliotAThomas I mean, I don’t disagree with them as an ex-Fortnite player; that **** was *** to play against unless you hit every single shot. However, I don’t see a problem with it in quickplay.

  • Saviorzero82 Saviorzero82 (@Saviorzero82) reported

    @FortniteStatus @OneArmSoraKai here’s what happened,thank god they are fixing this, hey @FortniteGame think you can you also fix the not able to jump and run glitch, o and the game pad custom binds so they will work pretty please

  • JuanJose_R12 JuanJose (@JuanJose_R12) reported

    @ModernWarzone Apex and Fortnite. Wz2 would be fun if it didnt crash. Thats frustrating.

  • biggamerstatus OMΛRI (@biggamerstatus) reported

    i feel like every modern game has the thing in where they release new content, and its generally a fun adition (hammers to fortnite or solar raid for siege) but it either gets boring quick or game still has large issues (thanks siege)
