Event Store Info! Posted: 17 Jan 2018 07:17 AM PST Heya Folks,   We've been seeing some confusion or just general questions about the Event store and with the Survive the Holidays event ending, want to provide some clarity: Event store is not just a part of the winter event - it is a permanent feature! The 'Weekly Section' will continue to rotate and always have items (may change periodically, p.s. Flux will be around for a while) The 'Event Section' will usually have items, but not always (i.e. smaller events, but may persist from major events) Daily Coins do not reset We are going to experiment with "Seasonal Gold" we are going to let it run through the next Storm event and likely reset it the event after. We'll keep you posted on the results of our data. We'll give you folks a heads up before the reset as well!   If you have any other questions drop 'em in the comments below. submitted by /u/JustMooney1 [link] [comments]

Change "74,202 Heroes" to "74,202 Wrong Subreddit Posts" Posted: 17 Jan 2018 04:13 PM PST Just a funny consideration :) I know you guys are sick of it too :) submitted by /u/xOGx_Hermes [link] [comments]

[Update] Epic Jacked up My Bros Account. No follow up. Posted: 17 Jan 2018 06:00 AM PST After posting about my brothers issue with his account, u/MrPopoTFS stepped in and saved the day. My brother got his account reinstated and the Epic team apologized for the delay and reimbursed him for his time and effort. So I'd like to say a big thank you to u/MrPopoTFS for his help and expediting the resolution. Thank you!

QOL: Resources at top of storage Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:05 PM PST Can we please have our wood, stone and metal at the top of our storages? If I want to drop wood to someone for a build o have to search for it in he midst of a ton of crap. But if it is at the top. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! submitted by /u/mercyflushed [link] [comments]

Should we (StW) get worried too?? Posted: 17 Jan 2018 02:58 PM PST submitted by /u/MAN3282 [link] [comments]

Cool Fort design I saw tonight, a.k.a. the Inward facing trap pyramid. Posted: 16 Jan 2018 11:05 PM PST Came across a player who made these really cool pyramid forts for an atlas map. I thought they were very creative, but on top of that they worked really well. Hardly any husks survived more than a few seconds at the peaks of either pyramid. Course we, as players had to keep an eye out for Propane Husks and Smashers, but all in all it was an easy defense with 3 Heroes. 1st Atlas Pyramid https://i.imgur.com/ImG2fSP.png 2nd Atlas Pyramid https://i.imgur.com/TpOw31k.png Interior shot of the 1st pyramid giving you an idea of how the 4 traps shoot inwards at anything that reaches the hardened peak of the tower. https://i.imgur.com/6PDQwqY.png Player who made this said it's cheap to build and all in all works really well, as husks always want to climb to the highest part of the pyramid to attack. You raise that to 3rd lvl Metal for best results. 4 raised Dart Traps all firing at the top of the pyramid. 4 Gas traps over each entrance. 4 spiked planks to slow under the gas trap for greater effect. Only change I would have made is make the outer walls at least 2 high, if not 3 high and close off the corners to they absolutely have to come in under the gas traps. Anyways wanted to share as this was a new, to me, base design. And I'm bored as hell with the majority of the base designs I see. submitted by /u/Gwarh [link] [comments]

New design I'm trying out. Would like some feedback Posted: 17 Jan 2018 04:47 PM PST So each Cardinal direction has a funnel and is lined with traps except the south. The south has a lot of walls to divert the husks west or east. For the funnels each joint has walls(half walls) upon walls so the husks go through the funnels instead of around. I know little husks would be a problem but I'll be up on the roof taking care of them and propane husks. At the end of the funnels there are only 2 short ways blocking the generator, made it so the husks are drawn to it since it's the path of least resistance and quickest route.

Next Fortnite update: Posted: 17 Jan 2018 01:16 AM PST BATTLE ROYALE patch notes: A lot of kool new things Weapon balances Performance improvements Bug fixes 27 new character skins, 12 pickaxe skins, 10 glider skins Let us know what you want, there's a 90% chance you will see it in the next update (a few days later) SAVE THE WORLD patch notes: The number#1 feature the community asked since forever: "Backpack accessibility from main menu 2.0", is finally here... and this time it will last more than 2 days Llama changes: we observed an increase in Llama purchase, so we are reducing the spawn rate of "Super Llamas" to 1/month. Also we are increasing the cost of upgrade materials required for evolving schematics and we are introducing a set of new casual perks Hero balances: not needed We are 90% positive that there are lag issues, especially when a dude connects to your game, or on day/night changes. We'll keep a close eye on it and let you know when we reach 100%. We are still debating if we should designate a person to investigate the Loot chest reward problem. Other bugs that we could not fix will from now on be considered as intended changes. Stay tuned for our new in-development video in which we will answer a few questions regarding Battle Royale. submitted by /u/Omy86 [link] [comments]

For anyone who is over 100 collection level Posted: 17 Jan 2018 04:01 PM PST Is there more skill points to be gained or is it one you hot 98 that's all of them submitted by /u/LazyMemoriesxD [link] [comments]

Hero skins, Pickaxe skins and emote menu like BR has implemented to StW Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:17 AM PST Hello Devs and Heroes: What does everyone think of allowing players to use skins they already have unlocked for characters that are the same. As well as skins for pickaxe that we have already unlocked or purchased. I will give examples below. I have a few different ideas which I would like implemented. My ideas below are connected to both the PvE and PvP aspect of the game which will increase the likelihood of players playing both, which is more money for epic and more stuff for players. Win-win scenario so please hear me out. I have a legendary dragon scorch ninja but I like the skin of the epic one better. I would like to be able to change my legendary dragon scorch to the epic skin since I previously had the epic and evolved it to legendary with flux. Same thing with all other heroes and their available skin. Having the option to interchange skins in nice. I bought some skins in the PvP store both for heroes and pickaxes. I would like to be able to use them in PvE if it is the same character model. For example if I have the Urban Assault skin from PvP let me use that skin if I am using the same character model in PvE. Also allow us to use pickaxes from the PvP store in PvE don't really think that would negatively affect gameplay. This one is similar to number 2. If I have skins in PvE through the heroes that I have unlocked or pickaxes that I have unlocked allow us to use it in PvP. It might even pull some PvP players to StW just to unlock skins. I am talking about all skins not just soldiers. So Ninjas, Constructors and Outlander skins. All of which are not available in PvP currently. Just another little something. I would also like to be able to use the emotes that I have from BR in StW. I also don't think that should mess anything up too badly lol. If people want to know what hero their teammates are using you can always add it to the pre-game menu over the characters if that's something that players require. I would like to see a similar menu that BR currently have where you can pick and choose the skin, pickaxe, glider and emote you are using. I figured since we are sharing servers we might as well be able to share skins, emotes and pickaxes right. What is that old saying. Sharing is caring ;) Thanks for reading have a great day!!! Edit: For the players that don't like the idea or downvoting could I possibly request for your reasoning? I'm just curious no hard feelings at all. I just figured since it's strictly cosmetic that it wouldn't hurt anything. submitted by /u/Sack0fWine [link] [comments]

Another over the top creation Posted: 17 Jan 2018 07:52 AM PST submitted by /u/so_burned [link] [comments]

There needs to be a better way to go through your skills/researches Posted: 17 Jan 2018 02:12 PM PST I don't know if this has been mentioned before (I'm new to the game and this subreddit) but going through your skills is very annoying. It'd be better to have it like your map on BR, where it's like a cursor rather than having to go through all of your skills very slowly. I don't know how to explain it so I hope this makes sense. submitted by /u/xJacon [link] [comments]

How do I increase my power level? Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:42 PM PST I got Fortnite: StW a few weeks ago and still only sitting at 16 power in Plankerton page 5. Any help? submitted by /u/Frost5574 [link] [comments]

Recon Scout Eagle Eye vs Ranger Deadeye Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:31 PM PST I bought the game during Xmas sale. I received an epic Eagle Eye with all the goodies, I upgraded her to legendary and she is now a 3 star. I just obtained an epic Ranger Deadeye. Which one is better? I feel like I remember this sub saying he was one of the best outlanders. Also, on the topic of outlanders, I cannot use Jess. I find her to be my least favorite, tbh. I only have a Trailblazer of her and it's permanent and I can't do anything with it :( also, I have a legendary Trailblaster Buzz, never used and rare Trailblazer Quinn that I've kept for her sheer cuteness, tbh, but never actually used her. I really have a soft spot for outlanders for some reason. I usually just keep them for expeditions. Keep or recycle them? submitted by /u/everythinghurts25 [link] [comments]

UI locking bug (100% repeatable on Windows 10, please fix) Posted: 17 Jan 2018 08:06 PM PST Edit: when the game completes, the UI unlocks. Not terribly ideal though if you're not top 10 for example :) Video of bug: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZj9AuB8Nt8 If you use the Windows shortcut to copy a whole application window, ctrl+alt+shift+printscreen it will completely lock the Fortnite UI. Give it a go, it's a good time :) I use the shortcut to occasionally grab my post game stats and share with friends. After issuing the command the only way to exit the game is to force quit it through the Task Manager. submitted by /u/miri1299 [link] [comments]

Check sub before posting Posted: 17 Jan 2018 07:58 PM PST It seems like all I see on here are BR players posting BR related stuff. It's getting annoying as all hell. I understand if it's an across the board post relating to BR and StW, but it has been ridiculous as of late. Just getting tired of having to post "wrong sub" over and over. CHECK THE SUB BEFORE POSTING. submitted by /u/Lurker4Life_26 [link] [comments]

Do i still keep survivors if i don't succesfully complete the mission or just leave early? Posted: 17 Jan 2018 07:54 PM PST Say i quickly enter the mission, rescue a survivor then leave, will the survivor be with me? Also does the level of the area matter what type of level survivors you encounter? submitted by /u/Goat1232 [link] [comments]

Have you heard of our lord & savior, the Bolt Bolt? Posted: 17 Jan 2018 07:49 PM PST submitted by /u/apocalypse31 [link] [comments]

It would be cool to see something like random legendary quests Posted: 17 Jan 2018 11:33 AM PST I want to start by saying this is not a there is to much grind in the game post. I am perfectly fine with how the game currently plays I am just thinking of things that could make it more fun as you grind along the story missions. In my mind I am thinking something similar to like an exotic weapon quest from Destiny if anyone played that and is familiar. So it would be cool to come across random quests that are long and drawn out with many different things you need to do along the way but with like a legendary lead survivor as a reward or a random legendary weapon or trap schematic. It could be anything really just something that you could see and be like ok I can work on this quest that will give me this reward and it might take me a few days or a week to get through it. I could even get behind something like the quests being RNG on when if you get them so that you never know which one you are getting or if you are getting one. It could be a random quest you get from turning in Daily Quests or other side quests or just something a random survivor could give you when you save them. I like how it plays currently and I understand the point of getting these things from Llamas. I just think it would be cool to have some different ways to get things and I really just want more cool things to do and work toward in the game. submitted by /u/The_Snowman_ [link] [comments]

would it be worth to continue leveling this revolver to pair up with my deadeye? Posted: 17 Jan 2018 05:20 PM PST submitted by /u/gladi83 [link] [comments]

I have only been playing for a few days but on my way to work I keep seeing buildings and wondering how I could turn it into a death trap! Posted: 17 Jan 2018 02:00 AM PST This game is quite addictive :) submitted by /u/KKae [link] [comments]
