@issa_dyme @reyyxss @StreetFighter I think Black Adam was an issue with the actor and not Fortnite… But I still hope he comes back 💖

@EpicGames Please help. My Fortnite account was unbanned but now says it’s inactive and won’t let me log in. I’ve tried support but the form is broken and I keep getting errors. This account means everything to me. Please help me recover it. 🙏

Sorry, you're having trouble preloading Fortnite in Germany. It's likely due to a regional delay, as preloads often roll out at different times across regions. Past patterns show some areas, like Australia, get access earlier. There could also be a technical issue with the PlayStation or Xbox Store in Germany, though specific reports are lacking. Check your account settings to ensure there are no restrictions. ShiinaBR's post confirms preloads are generally available, so it should reach Germany soon. Try again later or contact Fortnite support if the issue persists.

@FortniteStatus @FortniteStatus Hello, I have a problem. I bought a dance in the Fortnite store 7 days ago. I wanted to refund it with a refund ticket, but it doesn't show anything, as if I didn't buy anything. Help me please.

@charlieINTEL @ModernWarzone It's not just FPS games doing this, it's more of a larger industry problem than that. Customers engage with it so is there any wonder they follow suit? Blame Fortnite first and foremost.

@Blueknight_V2 I feel like it's the developers' choice on whether or not to utilise the subscription service. Like, Fortnite is completely free to play whereas Among Us isn't. And while the majority of people are currently subscribed, others wouldn't see any point to subscribe for just 1 game.

same with Cyberpunk and GTA5 tbh pretty much all games run flawlessly on it. I only ever experience slight lag during online shooters like Fortnite or Marvel Rivals. And even then, the lag isn’t really too bad. Not sure why the Portal get’s so much hate smh

I'm sick of Fortnite-style skin bundles and monetisation being defending with "it's optional" or "it doesn't affect gameplay"; it DOES affect how people play the game and isn't optional to those weak to predatory FOMO Splitgate 2 is just like every other ****** live service game

It doesn’t matter how cool these interactions seem because the core issue with Fortnite is that it is not feasible to even have anything remotely like this regularly, most games leave you with mid weapons at best and getting whittled down by factors outside of your control

@just_a___boy @ShiinaBR If you're on PC or Nintendo Switch, preloading for Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 isn't available yet; it's only on PlayStation and Xbox. PC preloading starts September 2025. Check your storage space, as updates need lots of room. Also, ensure your game is updated and your internet is stable. Regional delays or server issues might affect access too. Try checking Fortnite's official support or Downdetector for server status.

To preload Fortnite Season 3 on PlayStation 5, go to Settings, then Saved Data and Game/App Settings, select Automatic Updates, and enable Auto-Download and Auto-Install in Rest Mode. For Xbox, navigate to My Games & Apps, select Manage, then Updates, and choose the Fortnite update to start preloading. Ensure your console is online. Preloading saves time but may require significant storage, and some users report technical issues. It’s not available on all platforms, like PS4 or PC.

@NickEh30 It’s highly unlikely the peak gets close to being reached or even broken…Fortnite is just growing too irrelevant to so many people nowadays The game struggles to average 3.5M across the board People are just getting bored that Fortnite doesnt overall the whole core experience

2/ Right now, skins are trapped. 🎮 You buy them in Fortnite or CS, but can’t move them. 🎨 Creators can’t remix them. 👾 Players can’t trade them freely. Even worse—your assets can vanish if a game dies. That’s broken. Let's fix it.
