  • TheCptFrost Frost ❄ (@TheCptFrost) reported

    I miss the time when Fortnite was shown as a zombie-building-shooter. Not that I have any problem with the current game as a Battle Royale. I don't enjoy it doesn't mean others don't. It's just... nostalgic to look back and I was like, "Damn, it was fun."

  • SG_BTW SG (@SG_BTW) reported

    @Fr0m_fps @ryanx6s Fortnite players get under payed by most orgs but make up for it because the prize pool is bigger but there’s the problem with that becuase you would have to place to make money since no team is paying you

  • AriahsAntics Ariah Makhi (@AriahsAntics) reported

    @FortniteGame @FortniteStatus are you guys aware of an issue with VBucks purchases taking forever to process and just not processing at all? Been happening since first Arians concert... Please let me buy VBucks!

    @xXCultfaceXx @LBlox69 @IGN Wow, a game company wants to make money, shocker. I’m not saying lootboxes themselves aren’t strictly for monetary use, all I’m saying is that it’s strange they use the Overwatch as an example when their lootboxes are done well whereas fortnite or hell, even crash team racing

    okay so i play fortnite and the voice chat keeps randomly breaking and not working every time it breaks it looks like i have to restart my game just to hear other people again and speak the game appears to keep putting me in two channels at once, or something what is wrong?!

  • FL1NTZ Joe (@FL1NTZ) reported

    @Gothalion Well, I can't agree completely. While that would be a good idea, Fortnite right now is printing money. It's an "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" type of thing. We'll see!

  • Crazy_Gamer_0 Crazy games (@Crazy_Gamer_0) reported
