Fortnite Didn't Receive Compensation Mega Thread

Didn't Receive Compensation Mega Thread

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 06:33 PM PST

Hey everyone! It seems some people still haven't received their compensation for their inventories/storage being wiped so let's try to concentrate all those posts into one thread so we can see the or get an idea of the scope of the problem.

  • Please check your storm shield storage first before posting here that you did not receive anything.

  • State your username and platform (pc/xbox/ps4)

Thanks!

EDIT:

I'd also suggest contacting support and reporting it in game.

You can contact support via: http://fortnitehelp.epicgames.com/

To report it in game you can go to the main menu (top right) and press feedback. This will give you the option to:

  • Report a bug

  • Submit a comment

  • Give some feedback

I have the biggest urge to just run out of my car and see if there is any good loot in there!!!

Why are the female constructors so THiCC?? ;P

Ah just enough to level up that new gun.

Epic, can you please wipe my inventory and issue compensation?

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 07:49 AM PST

You guys are crazy.

I love this game and have gambling addiction so I've probably spent $500+ supporting it. I have the ultimate edition and have bought more llamas than i needed and that's cool.

What's not cool is my friends I gave my codes to, who only play battle royale got compensation despite not having any inventory to lose.

Can you please wipe my inventory and give me more vbucks than I've paid for and more crafting materials than I've farmed?

Thanks,

Whale

Epic's compensation

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 03:01 PM PST

So the sub is now a big mess of people who got their compensation, but didn't deserve it. Some didn't even get any yet and the people who plainly got too much compensation on materials (or v-bucks).

 

There is a party which is angry because they didn't get their compensation yet, or didn't receive a right amount.

There is a party which is very happy because they got a compensation for (almost) no reason at all.

There is a party who is feeling left out, because they tried to avoid the bug.

 

Just to be clear for everyone, the people need answers on these questions:

  • Were there any errors giving out these compensations?

(If so, how will you fix that?)

  • How will you be giving out compensation in the future?

(Considering this can happen again)

The next time this happens, people will try to get this bug aswell. At least I will, because hell if I get some v-bucks and my materials back in the end then why not?

 

It feels like you guys didn't have enough time to figure out the right compensation. For example: there is way too much of a gap for people who have played for a longer time.

 

Still I appreciate the effort! And I will also be a little more happy if another bug rises.

I'm kind of mad

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 12:38 PM PST

I've always supported the game and always given the devs and staff the benefit of the doubt when any huge game breaking bug came out. I didn't say a word about the old chest reward bug (actually went out of my way to come up with the excuse that perhaps it was a visual error).

I heard about this "wiping" bug and did not play so that my account wouldnt be a part of the list of accounts that needed to be fixed. I advised my friends to not play as well until the issue was resolved.

I was unable to play the game just as much as the people whose inventory was wiped. I went out of my way to make the bug cause less of a disruption for the devs by not allowing my account or my friends accounts be effected.

That being said I'm upset at the fact that although almost no one could play, and that only the people who logged in during the time frame of the bug got what 50$ worth of compensation? It feels wrong that I was unable to play being that I am PL62 and the community at that level is already so small. The bug effected everyone and I feel if you're going to go insane on compensation then you need to compensate everyone..

As I'm writing this I'm considering just trying to figure out ways to bug the game out and lose my stuff so I can complain get twice as much back and 50$ for the trouble. There has to be something wrong with the way a situation is handled when the large portion of the community is more upset that they didn't get the bug...

Is there a way to get a permanent legendary or higher transform key

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 08:38 PM PST

One for survivors or melee weapons would be really cool. Is this in some edition of the game? Maybe I could even get one from a quest? Please let me know.

Cosmetics

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 08:32 PM PST

I know Epic has said they will be adding cosmetics, but is there any timeframe on that? Even besides hats and whatnot, I would love just to see tints/paint jobs or whatever the proper term is. I think its unfortunate that playing a certain hero of a certain rarity/evolution locks you into a specific costume, and even a color scheme. Why does my legendary Hype have to be mint green?

If Epic is listening, I would spend v-bucks just for the ability to wear a different costume of the same hero, a costume you already have implemented in the game.

Can we get a sticked post for people who were affected by the backpack bug but still not received their compensation?

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 02:15 PM PST

I am one of these people, but I think consolidating all of the people making posts to one thread would help let EPIC know who all is still needing help and how widespread this issue is.

Farming Efficiently

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 11:14 AM PST

Some may disagree here. Sorry. Someone will definitely disagree just to disagree. But after many, many hours of gameplay, this what works for me:

Use expeditions to reduce your grind time for basic mats. Overflow goes directly to your SS storage, and it will overfill if necessary, ie go to 50/40 with mats from expeditions.

Grind in private mode with an outlander, with an outlander in support for 12-24% more pickaxe damage. This also keeps teammates or randoms from waiting for you to fill up.

Only grind sources that give crafting mats also (ie don't tear down a house for wood and stone). Takes me about ten minutes to go from 0-999 in all three.

It takes about an hour to farm 1000 nab and roughly 300 mechanical parts. I find this normally takes three city maps.

Craft full ammo and whatever traps you want before your basic materials fill. Then farm to fill back up. You'll recoup some NaB, powder and planks in the process.

Only grind city maps. There are more parking meters and power boxes. More cars and the whole edge of the map is filled with trees and rocks. There's also loose steel, wood and stone, which also give crafting mats.

If you're thinking ahead, stop by your SS in between and drop all basic mats. In the missions to come, you can swing by and fill up.

Don't bother with chests. They're a waste of time. Farm ore if you see it, otherwise run missions for ore. Hunting for it on a map is a waste of time,

Avoid fighting. Wastes ammo and time. If you have to fight, use Teddy or shock tower.

Doing it this way, I never farm in missions. I mostly play constructor, so it makes a lot of sense for me. I can just find the objective and start building immediately. I've stopped caring if other people don't build.

You can also speed run maps if your party is cool with that. If you're not farming or trying to find quest stuff, there's no reason to dawdle.

Sorry if this is really direct. I'm a little salty this morning.

What I think after 30 days

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 05:56 AM PST

Hey,

I'd like to share my experience with the game, perhaps suggest what I think as a relatively new player, about the weaknesses.

Instead of letting you read my whole day-by-day diary, I'll just point the really good or really bad parts.

From Plankerton to Canny Valley

I want to start with something that bothers me the most. Plankerton was really long and I was looking forward to moving on. Especially since at the end I had around 13 nodes (40+) to choose from on the map, most of those gave me very little experience, being green. I finally managed to grind through the last few quests and unlocked Canny. Only to be greeted with less nodes to choose from, especially if I want to progress the main quest. I was really sad to see Ray go and have less creative quests - why is that not done yet? At least, give me a quest outline - I want to know when the next SSD is coming! I want to see how far I am. Right now I'm completing 'x of y, z or w in 46+ zone' which is all green and when I think that maybe this is it, there's another quest just like that waiting. Progression up to this point was really smooth, with new nodes being unlocked just as the past ones turned green. Now I'm playing way less.

Rewards

This connects to the previous point. As I advance, the rewards seem worse and worse. There's nothing to look forward to. It feels like the best rewards are daily logins, daily quests for vbucks and that there's almost no point to playing inbetween.

Players

This might be just my point of view, as I'm playing constructor and I'm focused on finishing missions fast. But to me, other players are close to useless. I do 90% of building and 90% of that is with resources I mine on my own. Other players spend 30 minutes running around the map doing who knows what (which is pointless, because there's not much you can get ingame) and will only come when the final defense is upon them - sometimes not even then. I am not a fan of quests like defend blu-glo siphon 3 times. For the sake of one player, the whole team is delayed. And all this only if I actually manage to get someone in the game - which is now starting to be uncommon.

Bluglo

Useless thing, as are the team boosts, getting rid of it would be great.

Collection book

Love it. While I saw some people complaining about the rewards - I don't mind them not being 'good enough'. Atm my book is at lvl 68 so we'll see if I'll keep liking it, but so far so good. Some quality of life changes would be great, but no rush.

Events

I started playing during Vindertech. I managed to progress from lvl1 and complete the whole event. with 3 normal schematics missing - and that's great. Winter wonderlands is even better, except for STS. Devs already got my feedback on the mode itself through the game, but I'd like to point out that giving out a reward for mission lvl 70 that I don't have a choice to queue into sucks. For a while I only saw the lvl 15 (dunno what unlocked lvl 40) and that feeling was even worse. I don't want to go around begging people to invite me to lvl 70. I chose to just miss out on the free legendary Kyle.

Defenders

Why are they even in the game. Such high maintenance. Of course I'll spend my hero xp on heroes instead.

Survivors

Why is it that survivors are the most important thing? It's not intuitive. While I'm enjoying building the squads, I want my traps, heroes and weapons to affect my powerlevel too!

Traps

SO EXPENSIVE. Right now I'm saving all of them just for my SSD's, I'd love to keep building traps on every mission, because I enjoy this a lot, but unless some good souls contribute materials, I have to save them up for my own use.

Building materials

The 999 limit on person is not great. I'd love to build up thousands and thousands of metal, but right now I have to get 999, deposit to storm shield, go gather from 0 again. The amount I'm using on SSD's is also not that funny either. If I want to have enough metal for SSD's without farming metal - just gathering it on quests - on missions I can only use stone.

Research

Zzzz, not a fan of how much it slows down. I'd like to find research points somewhere in the world or something.

Drops of rain

I've seen this a thousand times, but I also have to add my voice. Drops are sooo not fun.

Expeditions

Level up extra heroes, lock them away for hours and hours, consume people otherwise super useful for survivor transformation just to bring back... Almost nothing. I see almost no payoff.

And that's pretty much it. I didn't want to write a 30 page essay, but I hope I managed to get my issuess across despite the shortness.

Thanks for reading!

I sign into save the world with a bunch of free materials, anyone know why?

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 09:30 PM PST

So pretty much I sign into Fortnite ready to play some battle royale with my friend, and I see I have 2500 v-bucks and I used to have only 500 so I play a game, then I go over to save the world looking to see if the "account wiping" thing happened and I still have all my legendary cards and everything else, Then I finally went to home base and everything was the same in my inventory my base was fine, but...... I went into my storage in the storm shield to find a bunch of silver ore, copper, and malachite?-I think..... and a bunch of other stuff 100 active power cells and parts and resources 9000 metal 4000 stone and like 6 thousand wood and a bunch of other stuff.. like the normal human I am I pack my inventory with as much stuff I can and then I give my friend all the metal to put in his storage and stone to my other friend... I'm going to see tomorrow if anything is gone there was like 50/5 (I'm not that far in the game btw) and I don't think it'll be there tomorrow. Anyone know why this happened I would like to know to sum it up I got a bunch of resources and I lost nothing.

Raindrop progression needs to be changed

Posted: 30 Dec 2017 09:17 AM PST

something needs to be done about the amount of rain drops earned or the amount required to lvl/progress your heroes/items, Or keep the amount earned and make it so each mission that doesn't reward rain drops gives you at least 3/4 a game.
