Fortnite 2.4.1 Undocumented Changes/Bugs Megathread (new format)


2.4.1 Undocumented Changes/Bugs Megathread (new format)

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 05:50 PM PST

Patch Notes

Hi all! We're going to do a slight change on the undocumented changes/bug megathread in hopes of relaying information better, and making it more available. In order to do that, we're requiring you to follow the format below (you can copy paste it). Please, please, please follow this format, and check to see if what you are reporting has already been said:

 

**Explanation**: **Evidence**: **If replicable, how**: **Platform**: 

 

By doing this, we can use the upvote system to measure severity/frequency and also provide the developers with more info than simply, "Hey, this thing is not working, can you fix? Thanks." While allowing less severe/frequent bugs some more visibility instead of flooding the thread with the same bug. If you wish to report a bug and see that it's already reported, then just reply to that comment. If you have a workaround for that bug, then comment it on that post.

 

Thanks again for taking the time to do this!


Any report not following the provided format is subject to deletion, in addition it is possible that some of the reports will be deleted (Even if it follows the format provided). If so, it's highly likely that what you reported ruins the "integrity" of the game (exploits).

Latency issues, we're investigating!

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 11:48 AM PST

Our chat/data services are experiencing increased amounts of latency. Players may experience slow response times throughout the client. We are investigating.

ENOUGH of spamming chat for trade. RUN QUESTS AND COMPLETE MISSIONS INSTEAD!!!

Dear Epic ... PLEASE let us see if the storm will move!

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 11:44 AM PST

Please add an icon to show us if the storm will move. The message we have is soo transient that you can very very easily miss it. We then spend lot of materials on traps etc and end up wasting them. A simple icon at the top (like the ones you already show) will make life sooo much easier. A nice easy QOL improvement!

Save the World is getting glitchier with every patch...

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 02:35 PM PST

It's a bit sad. A month or two ago, I stopped being able to see other players on the map, let alone on the player list. This has consistently happened in about 2/3 of my matches since. Today, I just had a glitch where I couldn't even see myself for a while.

Then you have the freezing every time the day rolls over. This never happened before. It used to stutter. Then, after a few weeks ago, every time the day cycled the game would freeze for 4+ seconds.

Then there's the laggy menus that make me wish for death every time I have to spend a few hundred thousand survivor exp... then, yesterday, I had a glitch where I opened the chat and couldn't close it, breaking my game.

And there've been absurd visual glitches, such as my Constructor having no face and body. Today I had her hair twitching back and forwards as if she was having a seizure whenever she moved, and jumping would cause her hammer to rubberband downwards.

Can we just... focus on bugs? Please?

The 200th day reward. What do you think?

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 04:08 PM PST

Can we get more wall shapes? Ideas included.

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 08:11 AM PST

Can we please add more combinations of wall shapes? I'd like to build things like:

Medium wall with window

ooo

xox or oxx or xxo

xxx

Medium wall with two windows

ooo

oxo

xxx

Tall wall with wide window

xxx

ooo

xxx

Tall half-wall

oxx

oxx

oxx

Chainlink fence (metal only). This already exists in-game! You could see and shoot through it, but it would have lower HP than normal walls. And u/GenFoofoo had the idea to make them upgrade to barbed wire, then razor wire.

xox

oxo

xox

Edit: Removed medium half wall, as others have pointed out that it's already in the game.

Something wrong with the servers?

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:22 AM PST

Game responds slow........
Players get kicked from groups.....
Missions load very very slow......
It takes 20seconds to level a survivor/weapon/hero............

:(

Edit: Update by EPIC_ClintoniousEpic - Community Coordinator Hey everyone, just wanna give you a heads up. Our backend service is experiencing increased amounts of latency. This is why some of you may be having some trouble logging in, matchmaking, etc. We're trying to get it figured out ASAP.

Thanks everyone!

Is this thing any good? No chance, all damage...

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 07:07 AM PST

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but it says it reduces rate of fire, but increases it to 1.66.

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 07:53 PM PST

You can now transform Herbs, Planks, and Flowers into Nuts and Bolts.

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 09:30 PM PST

Just build a camp fire and recycle it. The exchange rate is pretty good at 10 Planks, 2 Roots, 2 Flowers for 4 NaB when recycling an Epic fireplace. Is this a feature or "feature"?

Long time to join/leave a mission

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:00 AM PST

When i select a mission to play, I have to wait about 2 minutes to join the lobby, then 2 minutes on loading screen while joining, and when I finish the mission, about 2-3 minutes on the Loading screen before opening the reward chest, My network is working perfectly, and it doesnt matter what server i'm in, it's the same time. It's happening since last update (2.4.1)

As an outlander I am ashamed of the greedy players.

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 06:51 PM PST

On countless occasions I pull out the llama and give away materials. It seems more and more people aren't helping crack it open and are instead picking everything up as fast as they can. This is enough to make me never want to help out again. I can't stand greedy people.

Let us see the mission type in the quick play lobby.

So tired of joining rescue/radar missions.

Or better yet - put in a browser.

PLEASE give an option to make controls more similar between STW and BR

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 05:33 PM PST

I like both games, but switching between them is frustrating. We need an option to make the conteols more similar.

The controls are similar in ways but very different in others. It makes it very difficult to switch between modes. Its a very odd experience.

Anyone else have this problem?

Which sword to bring to Twine?

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 04:43 PM PST

MORE problems after today’s PS4 update

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 10:15 AM PST

Login in screen freezes. Restart. Loot screen freezes. Restart. Mission screen freezes. Restart.

I've never seen a game add more issues than they remove constantly with these updates.

Expeditions for Gaining XP

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 06:05 PM PST

It would be nice if there were expeditions specifically for schematic, survivor, or hero XP that reward you with a reasonable amount depending on the power level when successful. I would like to see this added because there is no reliable way to get significant amounts of schematic XP outside of purchasing llamas. There story line does reward a significant amount of schematic at some points, but these are one stop dumps of 50-60k xp and that's it. The reward chests do give this resource but the most I have seen it give is 10,000 xp, and when in Canny Valley you need to have weapons/traps with a power level of 82 (legendaries) which are insanely expensive per each one - it costs around 160,000 xp, if not more, per legendary weapon/trap to go from level 1 to level 30.

The main reason I would like to have a way to farm XP reliable is to be able to change up how I play the game; currently, I play mainly UAH and only that because I do not have the XP to spend on trying out new heroes besides the ones that I have heard are really good such as Dragon Scorch or PowerBase. For weapons/traps, it is even more difficult to try out new stuff because of the need to have any schematics you are using maxed out to the recommended level for the area - 30 in CV. Without being able to try out new stuff, StW feels a bit stale after a while of playing it until a new event comes along such as the Christmas event which introduced new and refreshing things to do that did not require investing a ton of XP.

Just suggesting new ways to reward players with resources other than through purchases of llamas, because after a certain point of spending to get enough recyclable schematic, hero, or survivor xp, I think quite a few people will be at their limit for how much they are willing to invest into the game until new content comes along.

Werid crash

Posted: 03 Feb 2018 09:51 PM PST

So sometime when I boot the game an error window pops up. But the weird part is the game continues to load fine. If I close the window in anyway the game crashes
