Encountering "Epic Games account is Linked to Another Twitch.tv Account"?

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:02 PM PST

Have you changed your Twitch display name?

Hey everyone. We've identified a bug on our side that is causing some of you to see the this error:

Imgur

In general, this error means that you are logged in to Twitch.tv with an account different than the one you have linked. You can see the account you're logged in to Twitch.tv by seeing your name in the top-corner

Imgur

In your account management, you can see what account you're linked to: https://www.epicgames.com/account/connected

Imgur

If the names don't match, then it's likely you have changed your display name. If so, please "Disconnect" your Twitch link and re-link it again and it should allow you to complete the Twitch Prime flow. We're working towards a full fix in the future but in the meantime, this should allow you to get your loot.

Ok EPIC...

I really appreciate all the new improvements and the voting before upping the difficulty of a mission, but PLEASE get rid of the annoying pop-up that takes up ALL the screen and instead make it smaller and place it in a corner, like under the mats count would be nice.

EDIT: a word.

Storm Shield Storage is a joke.

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 07:27 AM PST

Having gotten the last backpack upgrade and having 200 backpack slots, I realized that my storage has capped at 60.

I'm not sure about anyone else but this feels like a real joke to me that that the storage is almost 1/3 the amount we can carry in our backpack. Wouldnt it make more sense for it to be much larger?

Its not like these storm shelters are small or anything, they should easily be able to hold larger amounts than we can. And we get 4 of them! Would be great if we got a significant boost in storage space everytime we unlocked a new one.

But 60? What's even the point outside of storing basic building materials, since those are the only material we are hard capped on how much we can carry at a time.

Please Epic, can it at least be equal in size to our backpacks if not anything more?

An open letter to Epic: Be respectful of your players’ time.

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 07:32 PM PST

Hi Epic!

I figured I would write this to let you know that I usually enjoy playing Fortnite. I say "usually" because it can really be a drag sometimes. Recently, some of those times have been:

  • Having players go AFK in missions that I started.

  • Having players follow me around begging me to craft them the gun I'm currently using, only to have them get mad and destroy my fort once I activate the objective.

  • Going to help out new players in lowbie missions and not getting any Commander XP.

  • Farming tickets/gold/v-bucks, using them on special items, and getting trash rolls with perks that either don't apply to the weapon or are useless outside of a narrow range of conditions.

  • Buying v-bucks and having the same thing happen as described above (this is worse, it's not respecting my money, which is my professional time).

  • Server hitching so bad when a player joins my game that I run off a cliff (in a world with cliffs in every direction).

My point is, your game has a nice, addictive core gameplay loop. It's like Warframe in a lot of ways, and I've got a couple thousand hours in Warframe. I've also spent quite a bit of money on Warframe.

You know why I will never have a couple of thousand hours in your game? You don't respect my time.

You know why I will never spend lots of money on your game? You. Don't. Respect. My. Time.

Now I'm gonna respect your time and stop writing. I hope you start paying attention to the problem children in your community, because they will kill it before you look twice. Please respect our time.

Cheers, BK

Wait time, then login failure?

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 11:06 AM PST

Please, if you want to carry your friend, that's fine. But don't expect other people in the mission to carry them for you.

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 02:02 PM PST

Rant incoming. I'll put a TL;DR at the end for the lazy ;)

I just did (well, I quit after the atlas took enough damage and I wasn't doing another 7 minute defense, sorry, good fucking luck) a level 64 FtS, the new ones or whatever. It was me and one other person who was 65 I believe, he found the atlas but didn't place it?? So I went over there and placed it and some quest items were near by so I grabbed those. I had finished the gym quest and I think almost my daily too in the first two minutes or so.

Then a level 7 outlander joins. Confused as shit, I messaged him asking how he got in here. He responds, "cause I'm a boss"..... Okay. I just left it alone from there, he continues to spam me with messages (girl on xbox problems, I guess). The original guy I was with messages me to ask why I'm bothering the level 7, so obviously that's how he got into the mission. I build up the base, traps and everything and unsurprisingly, the level 7 just builds a tower. On top of the atlas. Thanks. Went over the build limit. I know at this point I should have just left, but I was a little bit optimistic.

Of course, the level 7 and his friend do absolutely nothing... So me and another random that had joined are trying to do both sides and it's a clusterfuck.

Look. I routinely take my boyfriend (he's higher up now but at the time we still played together all the time he was low 20s) and his brother (also low 20s) to Canny. But we either private match or I make sure they're not going to be a burden to the team - we travel together, I tell them what's going on, etc. Especially my brother-in-law, he fully gets that he's pretty much worthless even with a boosted power level fairly close to whatever mission we're in. I help him out with weapons and stuff, he tries his best. He doesn't just build a tower, fuck up build limit and do absolutely nothing, he tries to do his best even if all he did for us was build the base and put his BASE down while we trap it out.

And also, I have been "carried" to Twine. I'm PL 57, I go up to level 100 missions. I know I'm underpowered but I don't get in the way and I especially try not to ruin everyone else's lives. I also go with friends so we are usually not in a public match anyway.

TL;DR: I don't really care if people bring lower levels into missions. But 57 levels below is ridiculous. Go somewhere else. What is the point if you're just going to fail. Don't expect the others in the mission to carry your friend. That's just rude.

/endrant.

Either remove Voting from 1st Deposit or add Fixed 20 tickets to Mission Completion.

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 09:02 AM PST

Epic.... what are you guys thinking behind the scenes? Now with voting, getting tickets is THAT MUCH harder to obtain due to players unwilling to increase difficultly, which im sure we can all agree there is no difference in difficulty between regular and one deposit. So now players arnt even voting to add 1 difficulty which is pretty much free tickets and gold at no cost of difficulty.

Dont get me wrong, voting system was truely needed for the trolls, but now the voting system has allowed players to keep the match regular with no tickets awarded because the format of this event is flawed.

Either add a fixed (low) amount of 20 tickets for regular completion, or remove voting for the first difficulty pylon deposit. The days going forwards will not be pleasant in missions.

This event in my opinion is the worst ticket generation we've had to date. First epic removes difficulty pylon from encampment missions. Ok i get that, everyone was farming it really hard, including myself, then we were forced to do other missions for tickets, cool, but instead of maxed out encampments now we had to do 2-4 player for lower tickets.... and now with voting, i havnt done a 2 player difficulty mission all morning due to afkers and scared players. There needs to be balance because at the moment, i can predict numerous players leaving multiple games until they find a team willing to increase it atleast once.

There needs to be balance epic, the ticket generation for this event is so broken.

Ticket Farming Nerf, remove it!

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 08:24 AM PST

Right now NOONE wants to do boosts in normal missions, not even +1. This change is so messed up, forcing people to play a single game mode all day long if they want Tickets...

Solution:

Allow +1 Boost and add Voting for anything higher.

New 4-player missions not worth it

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 07:36 AM PST

After doing a couple of the new 4-player Team missions they don't seem to be worth the time/effort/resources for the reward (and are potentially bugged).

For a level 100 Fight the Storm (husks lvl 118) we had every badge and all 3 building/combat etc. Platinum and we still only got a lvl 3 chest at the end. Even with this chest supposedly having double-rewards, it was barely more than normal mission rewards.

Definitely not worth it in its current state.

I can't speak for lower level missions, but at level 100 (118) it does not seem to be worth it, and the chest-level at the end seems to be bugged as well.

Just FYI.

And please let me know if you have had a different experience with these new missions.

v 3.1.0 Patch Discussion Megathread

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:24 AM PST

V 3.1.0 Patch Notes

GAMEPLAY

  • Spring it On! continues, adding new questline 'Brave Beginnings'.

    • Many of us have already given up on our new year's resolutions, but Val has not. Join the brave survivor on her mission to join in the battle against the storm as a defender.

  • We have added new group missions to all theaters. Currently the mission is 'Fight the Storm' with encounters designed for 4 players.

    • These missions allow 4 extra Defenders to be used.
    • Rewards for group missions should be roughly double, except for Spring It On! Gold (the latter remains unchanged).

  • Impulse Grenade has been added.

    • Blast enemies into the air and off cliffs!
    • Use these to bounce yourself or your friends up to hard-to-reach places!
    • These are temporary power-ups that will be removed from the backpack at the end of the mission.

  • DragonFire shotgun is now available in the Weekly Store!

    • Shoots a cone of fiery death, damaging all husks in the area.
    • Heavy auto-shotgun, with a slower rate of fire and smaller magazine size.

  • Damage of Dragon's Roar assault rifle increased by 20%.

  • Voting has been added to the BluGlo Difficulty Pylon.

    • After inserting enough BluGlo for a difficulty bump, the voting window will appear.
    • Teams of 2 or 3 players will require 2 'Yes' votes to increase difficulty. Teams of 4 will require at least 3 'Yes' votes.
    • If vote passes, the team can vote to increase the difficulty again immediately.
    • If the vote fails, a 45 second anti-spam timeout is put into effect before another vote can be taken. The deposited BluGlo will be returned to the player who initiated the vote.
    • Voting is not required in missions with only one player.

  • Training Manuals, Trap Designs, and Weapon Designs used to evolve a schematic or person are now refunded when they are recycled/retired.

    • This refund is in addition to the 1/4/9 currently returned when you recycle or retire a Rare/Epic/Legendary item.

  • Changed 'Crit Damage versus Afflicted targets' weapon modifier from 30%/45%/60% to 45%/67.5%/90%.

Bug Fixes

  • Dragon Rocket Launcher no longer roll magazine size perks.

  • Rocket/Grenade Launchers will no longer roll headshot perks. They are also now able to roll rare durability perks.

  • Fixed an issue that allowed players to damage Lars' van during the timed encounters.

  • Fixed small boxes of fireworks that drop red envelopes from being destroyed by Husky Propane Tank.

  • Disable Play Now button for 'Want to Build a Hoverboard?' Quest since the Quest is fairly dependent on players traveling to the right zone type (i.e., City zones).

  • We have temporarily disabled the Difficulty Pylon in Deliver the Bomb missions to address issues with blocking track placement.

  • Players that play in maps much lower than their current level will have their party stats clamped. We will continue rebalancing stat clamping to make sure parties of mixed levels find the content appropriately challenging.

HEROES

  • [Rework] 'I.F.F. Coding' perk

    • Plasma Pulse kills cause the Constructor's shield to regenerate at 15% of its normal rate for 2 seconds. Consecutive 'Plasma Pulse' kills refresh the duration.

    • 'In a Pinch' has been removed as the level 12 perk and replaced with 'Up Close and Personal'.
    • 'Kneecapper' has replaced 'Up Close and Personal' as the Berserker's level 30 perk. The Soldier Perk 'Up Close and Personal' has been reworked:
    • Warcry applies 3 stacks of Debilitating Shots to nearby enemies.

  • Removed kill reset timer in 'Fragment Generation' perk and changed tooltips to represent the change.

  • 'Fragment Generation' perk kill counter no longer resets after 15 seconds.

  • 'Phase Shift' now continues some of its momentum when used in the air.

  • 'Goin' Commando!!!''s base damage has been increased from 13 to 25 damage.

  • The Outlander's 'Shock Tower' now correctly displays its lightning visual FX when attacking.

UI

  • Can clear out all members in a survivor squad from a single action.

Added keybinds to pop-up context menus.

Bug Fixes

  • 'Dragon Daze' tactical perk no longer specifies Ninja.

  • Fixed an issue that caused Recycling node 2 and 3 in the skill tree to not display Collection Book upgrades under bonuses.

  • Fixed issue where pinning the Cruise Control Quest didn't show the Ride the Hoverboard objective on the HUD when not completed.

AUDIO

Bug Fixes

Think it's about time we separate the BR and StW servers/backend EPIC. Getting a little ridiculous now.

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:02 AM PST

As anyone who has played since last summer will know, the game/servers have been getting consistently worse every patch. It started around HEX~ time(same time BR really took off, what a coincidence!) and each patch since its either gotten worse or no improvement.

The servers just feel so janky half the time, response time is bad and everything's a little stuttery here and there. You had the benefit of the doubt last autumn(its early access bla bla) but its shown no sign of improvement since.

Separate the servers and backed, cause we all know StW doesn't not have near enough of a player-base to be causing all this 'load'.

And fact game was FAR smoother before BR really took off is all the evidence you need that as usually us PVE players are suffering and paying for the free2play players over having fun on BR.

Difficulty pylon is a feature failure

Posted: 01 Mar 2018 06:26 PM PST

Fortnite already has a problem with giving low level players the ability to join missions slightly out of their appropriate range. Difficulty pylons provides an ability to up the difficulty of your mission level when higher levels already exist and are accessible to lower level players. What is the point? If you want to make your mission more difficult, then just pick a higher difficulty mission that is already available to you. This event's main feature is incredibly unnecessary as well as uninspired.
