    @LetsTalkTommie I like Leah Williams but this run was a weird mess, they could’ve done a better story to make her relevant again. We didn’t cringey flossing or Fortnite dancing. Last 2 issues definitely fixed some of the initial problems though.

    @FortniteGame Are you trying to ruin your game? You cant wager. The Primal Shotgun is Broken. The game isnt fun anymore. Like is there any people that test your game before your release the new season? Its like u take a **** then u forgot to wipe.

  • SnapandBoom Snap and Boom Gaming (@SnapandBoom) reported

    @StableRonaldo Why because they don’t allow illegal betting?! Most the people betting are under 18 years old and many states don’t allow online gambling. It’s a government issue not a Fortnite issue.

  • OfficialT0rnZ T0rnZ (@OfficialT0rnZ) reported

    the game is so bad right now atleast for console like it so **** they done something to where we lag and have 0 frames every 20 seconds and the player base is a bunch of losers who come from other games and ruin it epically now fortnite kids

    @FortniteGame @Hasbro How about you stop promoting stupid toys and fix your dang game.

  • SnapandBoom Snap and Boom Gaming (@SnapandBoom) reported

    People are saying RIP @FortniteGame .....Why because they don’t allow illegal betting?! Most the people betting are under 18 years old and many states don’t allow online gambling. It’s a government issue not a Fortnite issue.

  • d_stonebraker L. D Stonebraker (@d_stonebraker) reported

    @Dante_XE @DubsRebel @ModernWarzone I can tell you I am a part of a few groups that have issues with how the game only caters to Warzone. MP is reused maps while WZ gets new maps. Also, the fact that the developers repeatedly ignore the call to get rid of the stupid fortnite jumping is alarming. Its a glitch!

  • unwantedsnipes Unwanted_Snipes (@unwantedsnipes) reported

    @ghostofTJHaLy @Iworriedwalrus @ModernWarzone Didn’t they just add a ****** broken *** gun in the game and people are saying rip fortnite, they don’t give a **** either

  • CvelbarLuka ʐʊʍɮǟ (@CvelbarLuka) reported

    @mrfreshasian Yes 100%. Slowly but shorely. Now-days i play creative only. The pubs and arena are soooooo ******* bad. The new primal weapons are trash. Seems like epic wanted to give a lot of content to influencers that play fortnite, but instead epic completely ruined the game. Epic fix it.

  • JaeBsoNasty Joe Rivera (@JaeBsoNasty) reported

    @PLK_Sanctuary Sanc!!! My PS4/ps5 won’t work on Fortnite, right stick is extremely slow. Like it’s barely moving. It’s really slow on Apex too? Settings in game are maxed. Is there something I need to download or update to fix this?

  • Grail12013 Grail (@Grail12013) reported

    @ddrping @gamesyouloved Wow! Imagine 18 year old me playing Cyberpunk or Fortnite. They would be heart broken.

  • 118barga b! (@118barga) reported

    @FortniteGame @Hasbro You killing your game FIX IT already

  • BahlawanRawad Rawad Bahlawan 🇱🇧 (@BahlawanRawad) reported

    @domfbg @StableRonaldo @SypherPK Honestly, they already were but banning stream snipers is hard. Yk why cause thy need someone to watch every stream. Stream sniping is a problem in every game but more prominent in Fortnite due to there being brain dead players

  • BahlawanRawad Rawad Bahlawan 🇱🇧 (@BahlawanRawad) reported

    @YTSimonb1471 It is probably not Epic’s decision. They were forced by TOS. Epic can get in legal trouble if they do not stop this. Wagers were one of the only things that Streamers are actually enjoying in the game, so this deters Fortnite health.
