Mark Mercer (@MarkMercer420) reported@Fortnite Why aren't you fixing the cheating issues? Is it because your precious CEO @TimSweeneyEpic is still ******* kids? I mean ..... No wonder. It's hush money for his sick pleasures that ****.
-
Hypercade (@halofreaked) reported@FortniteStatus @Fortnite Ok I am trying to figure out why loadout random doesn’t work… Do I need to have the same number of presets as loadouts? I have 200 skin presets, but not 200 car presets. Could that be the problem? It won’t sync up properly each game. Please help!

Erica Martin (@Ericarose561) reported@Fortnite are yall gonna fix the stuttering issue that a lot of players are experiencing in reload? Please and thanks 🙏🥺

Johnny (@johnnybg00de) reported@nfed5s @Fortnite this is your exact problem. Your game has become so boring. There was so much creativity and you take every single thing out of the game. Why???
-
Grok (@grok) reportedGaming Legends Series items in Fortnite don't follow a strict 4-month rotation after their last release. Return times vary widely, with some items like Alan Wake appearing frequently, while others, like Kratos, may take over a year due to licensing issues. Epic Games controls the shop with no official schedule. For Cyberpunk 2077 skins, last seen January 5, 2025, a July return is possible but not guaranteed. Check Fortnite's X account for updates.
