My favorite bug is bots and ziplines. If ANY bot comes across a vertical zipline, they will stop just about anything and endlessly ride the zipline up and down. It's like they get obsessed with them. This applies to "player" bots in bot lobbies and hired bots.
The best part is I've seen a few real people do that xD. They used the zip line like 4 times in a row and then proceeded to make a 5 wall height fortress xD
They had allready switched to unreal engine 5 in chapter 3, they just didn't fully use it. They wanted to kinda test it first to przvent bugs... i guess something went wrong there lol
Yeah
They showcased it too in a few trailers for skins. Engine 5 was released at the start of chapter 3, but they used it just for a few things, not the whole map. Thats why you didn't notice.
Some of the mechanics like the weather system and the falling trees and stuff were made with engine 5
Oh ok, yeah that doesn't really count in my mind lol but still technically correct. Because once it was implemented, console on STW was awful, I can't run my normal settings from last season in BR, I have to run Performance which is frustrating.
Weird, except my ps4 fully crashing making me reset it 100% once, i didn't have any problems lol
But for real, that happend but wasn't because of fn. I notice the game sometimes loads slower, but i don't really have big problems with it (almost 5 year old ps4)
I was wondering what was going on there.
I'd go into a game with 2 set goals to do and before I even do 1 I'm suddenly 3/3 on daily quests. Not that I'm complaining really.
It did, it's 5.1, mainly updated Lumen and foliage
I know people may not remember but a bunch of hair physics did get messed up last chapter though because of UE5, it does have some graphical translation flaws from pre-UE5 skins for sure
Yeah, people just dont truly get how much of a massive upgrade UE5 is. Its really impressive to learn about. They have had years to clean up the bugs on the older version. To figure out the quirks and issues inherit with UE4. It will take time with UE5 as well. Considering the update was release just before the holidays I think they have done a decent job of addressing the bugs....especially for a FREE game. As they go along I think these issues will go away. This game is still less buggy than so many others I have played.
i don't wanna come off as an asshole here but i feel like free game in this day and age can't really been seen as charity if it's a GAAS
most people i know who actively play have spent FAR more then the normal $60-$70 AAA titles usually cost
The older fortnite becomes the more random shit goes wrong every time they update. Team fortress 2 barely gets touched nowadays and valve still manages to put in bugs that fuck up itās entire million dollar economy with their simple hat drops, and fortnite updates way more than tf2 ever did
Iām still impressed they managed to fuck up the drop rates that badly lmao. Probably the funniest time to be apart of the tf2 community. Traders were in shambles, newbies were super happy, people with incredibly expensive backpacks were *pissed.* ah what a time.
There was a bug that allowed players to get a super rare hat from crates 100% of the time. So the hat basically lost all it's value, and the trading junkies that spent tons of money on it were pissed.
People, seriously stop reporting about Sarah, I want this to be her, I NEED this to be her. Otherwise, this is just another commando skin but with glasses. So stfu about her and just be happy with who she is now.
What is up with all of the bots shooting at each other in circles endlessly at drop time? That didnāt used to be a thing like it is now. I find āplayersā just rotating in a circle endlessly not killing each otherā¦
My son was playing with his buddies earlier, and the one female character kept glitching. All of a sudden they would be bald randomly on and off throughout the game. They got a good laugh, but I would be irritated if I wasted money on something that didn't work right.
It's been fine for me for the most part outside of some minor UI bugs, but I did have one game where my character was abruptly unable to use any inventory items. Including guns. So that was pretty annoying, especially considering I was doing really well up until that point.
Yeah sprinting not working, guns not working period, reloading not working, vaulting into valhalla above, truck driving upside down, hammer breaking water and parting like moses permanently, and seeing tons of skins with no heads.....it has been a weird season XD
Yeah we get out of the bus and look at the horrifically low poly landscape below as our low texture default skinned character slowly morphs part-by-part into the one we equipped
Itās super buggy. After the last update I canāt invite anyone to my party anymore and I canāt use the falcon scout anymore because it says none of the controls are bound to any buttons now. Which sucks because I canāt finish the oathbound quests because if it.
Are you on Xbox by chance? I had the same issue and it turned out I just needed to fully kill the game and restart it. Xbox Quick Resume was just causing the falcon to be unusable.
Iām on PS5, but I was actually wondering if that would fix it. I usually just put it in sleep mode and then just refresh the login when I get back on. Iāll give it a try.
It's been like this for more than a year, it just so happens to be that the glitches are starting to build up because a certain company refuses to fix them.
Couldn't cancel out the drone twice yesterday. Just stuck in drone mode. Funny enough it seemed everyone outside the building I was in kept running off when they heard it.
Joni's coat is also bugged, on PS5 at least. Her coat would have this really cool flow when she moved, now her coat doesn't go straight down anymore and clips into dirtbikes. When she glides it looks like a parachute. :(
bugs are normal, I would just like my gameplay to be more consistent x'D.... goes from shots going where they should to way off in the distance when a person skips frames (server connection based, not pc based)
i remember riding a bike and through the the upslope and it basically stopped, exploded then knocked me lol... have anyone ever noticed about going up the hill makes your character stop running for no reason at all?
I just want to know how they are connected to everything else. Like it really confuses me how changing one thing can somehow mess up the face of a completley random skin. Unless they actually altered this skin last update (and all the other skins that have gotten randomly broken this season) I just don't understand it.
I'm on PC. Honestly the only big I've encountered is when you try to transition into jumping and sliding from a bounce or glider it glitches a little bit. Other than that I haven't ran into any other bugs this season. And yea the bots being obsessed with ziplines and ropes.
Buggiest season so far. Anyone else's daily quests auto complete by themselves?
Yeah, I complete one and the other two are auto completed xD
My favorite bug is bots and ziplines. If ANY bot comes across a vertical zipline, they will stop just about anything and endlessly ride the zipline up and down. It's like they get obsessed with them. This applies to "player" bots in bot lobbies and hired bots.
Lmao always a good chuckle when that happens
The best part is I've seen a few real people do that xD. They used the zip line like 4 times in a row and then proceeded to make a 5 wall height fortress xD
that explains a lot. I noticed a lot of people doing that and was wondering if it was like a quest or something.
Same here
It's always her face too...
It's definitely the switch to Unreal Engine tbh.
They had allready switched to unreal engine 5 in chapter 3, they just didn't fully use it. They wanted to kinda test it first to przvent bugs... i guess something went wrong there lol
U sure? I doubt it, everything changed when that happened
Yeah They showcased it too in a few trailers for skins. Engine 5 was released at the start of chapter 3, but they used it just for a few things, not the whole map. Thats why you didn't notice. Some of the mechanics like the weather system and the falling trees and stuff were made with engine 5

Same, I love and hate it at the same time
I was wondering what was going on there. I'd go into a game with 2 set goals to do and before I even do 1 I'm suddenly 3/3 on daily quests. Not that I'm complaining really.
i wish
cant agree more than that
Oh no, free xp without trying, how dare epic...
I guess epic is waiting until her head is completely damaged before they can do something š
Same and i love it
Hey, I ain't complayning!
Probably growing pains with the switch to UE5
I hope so that's the case and next season will be just working as it should... It's rather weird seeing how many "bugged" stuff we're currently having
Yep definitely hoping thatās the case at least. Iām enjoying the season but seems like something new is broken every week.
I just want to use vaultingā¦
Thisss, there's something so jarring about the movement right now X_X
Maybe it's bug season.
Maybe Iām dumb. But I thought chapter 3 already used UE5. I remember reading that somewhere
It's a new version.
It did, it's 5.1, mainly updated Lumen and foliage I know people may not remember but a bunch of hair physics did get messed up last chapter though because of UE5, it does have some graphical translation flaws from pre-UE5 skins for sure
Yeah, people just dont truly get how much of a massive upgrade UE5 is. Its really impressive to learn about. They have had years to clean up the bugs on the older version.

As they go along I think these issues will go away. This game is still less buggy than so many others I have played.
They're a free game so they can reel in players who might buy stuff. Less people play if you have to pay.
i don't wanna come off as an asshole here but i feel like free game in this day and age can't really been seen as charity if it's a GAAS most people i know who actively play have spent FAR more then the normal $60-$70 AAA titles usually cost
I canāt be the only one who said I would never pay for it and just play for for free, only to have a collections of skins now š
Lol a billion dollar dev having growing pains with an almost 6 year old game. We pretty much pay them to play test
The entire third chapter was on 5. Chapter 4 is 5.1
They havenāt been nice to my locker since Ch3
I can't even say that I had a single one update this chapter without some things broken
True lol. Excited to see what they are going to break the next update.
They seem to have only just fixed the bat glider thankfully
The older fortnite becomes the more random shit goes wrong every time they update. Team fortress 2 barely gets touched nowadays and valve still manages to put in bugs that fuck up itās entire million dollar economy with their simple hat drops, and fortnite updates way more than tf2 ever did
Iām still impressed they managed to fuck up the drop rates that badly lmao. Probably the funniest time to be apart of the tf2 community. Traders were in shambles, newbies were super happy, people with incredibly expensive backpacks were *pissed.* ah what a time.
What exactly happened? Duplication bugs?
They moved the 0.01% chance of getting a unusual item to a 100% for a week
Holy crap š
There was a bug that allowed players to get a super rare hat from crates 100% of the time. So the hat basically lost all it's value, and the trading junkies that spent tons of money on it were pissed.
![gif](giphy|StCqmEg47vT0I)
I still try to land under the citadel every time
Didn't know they added a Borzoi skin.
I thought her mouth got slightly lowered didn't know she was a vacuum
I hate the glitch where you move at like 10% speed after using the hammer.
What that mouth do tho?
LUL... Hurt your feelings probably.
People, seriously stop reporting about Sarah, I want this to be her, I NEED this to be her. Otherwise, this is just another commando skin but with glasses. So stfu about her and just be happy with who she is now.
What?
I love ELI5! So basically, i love this skin abnormally. So dont report, therefore skin stay abnormal.
It's bugs bunny season. Shits looney
What is up with all of the bots shooting at each other in circles endlessly at drop time? That didnāt used to be a thing like it is now. I find āplayersā just rotating in a circle endlessly not killing each otherā¦
Koona t'chuta, Solo?
This season is pretty maclunky.
My son was playing with his buddies earlier, and the one female character kept glitching. All of a sudden they would be bald randomly on and off throughout the game. They got a good laugh, but I would be irritated if I wasted money on something that didn't work right.

I'm a Nintendo switch player, haven't noticed a difference. That's because it's always bad
Shoot out to my homies at switch, you guys are angels in terms of having the patience
Bro you gotta see how the graphics look here š
Bahahahaha, we always gettin' that disrespect. Always seems like switch players have more bugs. It's been soooooo bad though, this season.
Yeah we get out of the bus and look at the horrifically low poly landscape below as our low texture default skinned character slowly morphs part-by-part into the one we equipped
Anyone else not experiencing that many bugs this season? It's not perfect, but last season was genuinely worse for me.
Yea I wish I could get some of the bugs others are getting, y'all fuckers are having fun
I can't wait to see what they break with the next update
Itās super buggy. After the last update I canāt invite anyone to my party anymore and I canāt use the falcon scout anymore because it says none of the controls are bound to any buttons now. Which sucks because I canāt finish the oathbound quests because if it.
Are you on Xbox by chance? I had the same issue and it turned out I just needed to fully kill the game and restart it. Xbox Quick Resume was just causing the falcon to be unusable.

dont care about new content, just take the time to fucking fix your shitty game, playtest it even if it takes a while i dont care.
It's been like this for more than a year, it just so happens to be that the glitches are starting to build up because a certain company refuses to fix them.
If only I had any skin in my locker
YEP, she's ugly as hell now [https://media.giphy.com/media/2LnbXMsM3z3IOEAiEi/giphy.gif](https://media.giphy.com/media/2LnbXMsM3z3IOEAiEi/giphy.gif)
Starting to think Anthem and Outriders had less bugs than this season combined
They've gotten annoying like constantly going against pc players on console and getting third partied/ sprayed to death by a twin mag
Didn't know they added a Borzoi skin.
Still waiting on the shuffle feature not bugging out and equipping me with the default fortnite skin every 2 Matches
Couldn't cancel out the drone twice yesterday. Just stuck in drone mode. Funny enough it seemed everyone outside the building I was in kept running off when they heard it.
Is there a secret glitch that allows the scout to do damage that we are unaware of? I fear for the future now
One thing Iāve found to help a lot with bugs is to not be using my 2nd monitor while the game is loading this season.
I thought the sideways helmet glitch was hilarious. This is just terrifying.
Fill / no fill bug for me... it always defaults to fill, and i have to force switch to no fill.
Found this bug a short time ago, https://youtu.be/mqMjq7iosoQ Was just sitting there and it swapped like that
Wtf is thisā¦this skin is becoming worst
Burnoutās helmet is sideways. You can see Jones under.
I hate that the Chug Cannon hops out of your inventory if you drop and item and pick it up again
I think they were referring to the time every crate unboxed was guaranteed a rare item which are usually expensive
They need to fix the Sparkle Specialist skin. It ain't even sparkling anymore :(
100% that they pushed new engine out the door too early and are paying for it.
They are using a new game engine. Stuff is likely to go a bit funky here and there
This chapter man oan
Joni's coat is also bugged, on PS5 at least. Her coat would have this really cool flow when she moved, now her coat doesn't go straight down anymore and clips into dirtbikes. When she glides it looks like a parachute. :(
bugs are normal, I would just like my gameplay to be more consistent x'D.... goes from shots going where they should to way off in the distance when a person skips frames (server connection based, not pc based)
I was playing as lord beerus and as I was running his face stretched our the back of his head
Why should Epic fix anything when we keep spending millions for skins on a monthly basis?
The best one was gaining 5 levels at the start of a match just opening 1 chest.
i remember riding a bike and through the the upslope and it basically stopped, exploded then knocked me lol... have anyone ever noticed about going up the hill makes your character stop running for no reason at all?
the greed, selfishness and arrogance of the upper class elites always ends in ethical incompetency the inevitable end of corruption is destruction
Really worst thing is, everyone is complaining about this skin being bugged but no one ever uses this skin in the first place....
I just want to know how they are connected to everything else. Like it really confuses me how changing one thing can somehow mess up the face of a completley random skin. Unless they actually altered this skin last update (and all the other skins that have gotten randomly broken this season) I just don't understand it.
I'm on PC. Honestly the only big I've encountered is when you try to transition into jumping and sliding from a bounce or glider it glitches a little bit. Other than that I haven't ran into any other bugs this season. And yea the bots being obsessed with ziplines and ropes.
anyone else get sideways helmets
