Fortnite 2018 /r/Fortnite Sub Update


2018 /r/Fortnite Sub Update

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 05:31 PM PST

70k and 110k+ subs!

/r/Fornite has been growing steadily since release while our brother sub /r/FortniteBR just passed 100k users!! When Fortnite released just 6 short months ago, the sub was at only a few thousand users and today we have over 70k! December was our best month ever with over 1 million unique users viewing millions of posts! We are adding over 500 new subs each day! You guys rock!

We had a great 2017 with a ton of contests and awesome content created by you guys. We raised over $4,000 for Extra Life. We hope to see a lot more this from the community in this upcoming year.

Rule Updates

As you may know, we currently have two subs run by a mix of Moderators. We have found a lot of success with the rule set on /r/FortniteBR and as such we are updating the rules to more closely match with theirs. We have added or clarified the wording on rules that were being enforced but not stated, eg. duplicate posts/politics/console wars. The biggest changes will be to our meme rule, we will be matching /r/FortniteBR's meme rule as we have found it works well. As always, we are open to feedback and want to hear from you all.

Subreddit Meme Rules

We love funny posts as much as anyone, but we have high standards when it comes to memes or joke posts. Any memes posted to r/FortniteBR must be:

  • High quality (no MS Paint-level cutting and pasting)

  • Original (no templates, reposts, or common memes)

  • Fortnite-specific (no allusions to other games or media)

Daily Llama Post

This post will no longer be stickied but will be available each day and usually on the front page. You can also check the sidebar as we have added a link to Storm Shield One which runs the daily bot updates!

New Daily LFG Post

In order to better foster community grouping, we recently started a new daily post for Looking For Group. We hope this will encourage users on this sub play and help each other!

Mod Changes

Due to real life obligations /u/wingedkeyboard will no longer be apart of the moderation team. He has been a big help with moderating behind the scenes and we wish him the best of luck moving forward!

Mod Application

While it may look like we have a lot of moderators, we currently are down to 3 active ones. We are in the process of removing 2 inactive mods but it is a timely affair. We are looking to bring on a few more moderators who are active on the sub and have the time and passion to help the sub grow. If you feel like you would like to take this on please apply here: Moderatior Application

My Canny Valley Storm Shield has a hole

The zombie attack has taken a greater toll on some more than others. Epic gave me a good laugh with this one.

Anyone else's in-game menu's like 10 seconds of lag atm just upgrading survivors / collecting rewards?

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 02:14 PM PST

I know this is not the place but EPIC support has not helped me in months and my Fortnite does NOT work.

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 08:30 AM PST

To begin, I purchased the Super Deluxe edition during the Christmas sale for about $50. I gave a code to my friend and we both played a little bit of what we could.The game was functioning just fine, I have not had any sort of bugs or crashes in my playtime. What did happen though is absolutely infuriating. I don't remember the exact name of the features since it has been a while but there was a sort of skill tree in the game that you could fill up for the PvE. I placed a point into one of the skills and as a result, the game wanted to give me a reward.

This BROKE the game completely because of some loop that I am being given. I open the box only to get an error text box say "Insufficient xp" over and over. To be specific, there are actually two of these boxes layered over each other but both do NOT work and I cannot play the game I paid for. I have sent MANY tickets but they all end up the same with the generic respond bot saying they will reply soon.

EPIC this is really frustrating. I tried to be understanding of this situation but I spent GOOD money to enjoy the game and I still have not seen any sort of fix. I think a simple solution would be a reset of my account of some sort as if I refunded and repurchased the game.

Kids and missions

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 04:46 PM PST

Don't ask for a gun. Ask to trade or something also don't hound the person who gives you a free weapon. " Could you drop a good ar also?" Makes me want to quit the match.

If you're aren't gonna build don't start the mission. If you aren't gonna build at least help upgrade or something. Just because I'm a high level doesn't mean i can do everything or want to. I mean i can but don't want to. Also don't start the repair the shelter mission until you build first!!! I'm on like the 5th one because some lower level just ducking starts it.

So please stop bothering people for guns they will come with time and grind. I don't mind being nice, but get out of my ass just because I'm a high level.

Avoid player option

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 11:53 AM PST

The amount of entitled free loaders in Save the World is killing my enjoyment of this game. Every mission I played today 1-2 players did nothing to help the objective. And in my last mission, which was PL58, a PL24 player join us when we're defending the 3 atlases killing off our defender and decides to just farm materials on the other side of the map. This shouldn't be happening. Please add some way of avoiding a player in the future so this doesn't have to repeat itself, or at the very least, please consider this option.

How do you build your fort?

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 10:20 AM PST

Title. To expand, I've seen about 5 different ways on how to build a fort, I've seen about 3 really effective ones. I'm curious how everyone builds their fort. I've been playing since about a day or two after EA launch and usually (as a ninja main) have to end up setting up the structure to help defend the shelter/van/ballon/Atlus/Atlus's (Atlusi?) I try to NOT go over the build limit, but once someone has put us over the build limit, I just have fun with it, and make things like sniper towers, a roof to the castle, sloping and double walls to fend off the horde... Yes it means a loss in points towards loot, but what else are you going to do? But that's not what this post is about.

How does everyone build their forts up? The pyramid method? The Trap method? double walls no traps? "death tunnels"? " Area of Denial strats?

Also, I apologize if there's already a thread out there like this one that's linked somewhere.

Fight the Storm 1st attempt fail

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 08:57 AM PST

Im currently on 64 missions in Canny valley and in 2/3 lobbys people asking about failing 1st attempt Fight the Storm for "easier way". It's so anoying. I think when you start playing Canny valley STW it starts to be a bit demanding and i like it. I think we need a little bit challenges in this game.

"PLEASE WAIT"

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 12:20 PM PST

Maybe give some more info than "please wait" ??? Nothing is updating, I'm not waiting in line, so I'm litteraly sitting here, not even watching a loading bar. Really frustrating, how long will this go on?

Can someone give me some direction on how to link my account on PSN?

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 09:25 PM PST

When I downloaded the game and started it up, it asked to make an epic account. Well, I didn't. Just now, I made an account on their website, and when I go to link it up to my PSN account, it says it's already been linked with another epic account. How do I find out which account it's linked to?

Do Sarah and Mari have the same voice lines/actor?

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 05:06 PM PST

I recently started playing Dim Mak Mari, and to my surprise I noticed she had the exact same voice lines as Sara claus/Assassin Sarah. Has anyone noticed this with other heroes?

Mini rant, I guess.

Posted: 12 Jan 2018 04:57 PM PST

I finally completed a storm chest (for Air Quotes) after scouring maps for the last few days without finding one. And you know what, a level 14 activated the van by himself and fucked us over. It was really early in the mission, we were almost to first day change. He also had only built like maybe 15 things. What the fuck. I'm only PL 24, so it's not like I'm so much better or what have you, but seriously... He had no reason to activate the van without us (only 3 of us in mission). Ugh. I hate this quest.
