| v5.21 Important Links/Undocumented Changes/Bugs Megathread Posted: 15 Aug 2018 02:48 AM PDT Important Links5.21 Patch NotesMission Rewards FixHi all! Same as last time! 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:
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. We've also included some important links that we find may help you out. We'll continue to update them as necessary. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Camera Angle and What it means for Vision Impaired Players Posted: 15 Aug 2018 01:19 PM PDT Hey Epic, I'm just writing this to explain my situation and perhaps provide some clarity as to why many users want the old camera angle back. Fortnite was always a simplistically styled video game an while some people may not like that, for others it was a godsend. For instance I am losing my vision to keratoconus. This makes it considerably harder to play games that have lots of visual clutter. I used to play Rainbow 6 alot but I no longer have the sight to play that game. I got into Fortnite STW because it was a game I could actually play. The clean visuals along with the generous camera angles actually allowed me to have fun and be effective(ish) in this game. Ever since the camera change in 5.2, I am having a much harder time sorting out what it on my screen. The only way I can play is by using the first person mode so it is hardly ideal. I would greatly appreciate being able to switch back to the old camera as it would allow me to continue to play one of the few games I could still play. Thank you for your consideration and I would love to hear back on what your stance/plans are for addressing this issue. P.S. I am using a Speech-to-text program so I apologize for any mistakes.

| How to play the one of THE ONLY SUPPORT HEROS IN THE GAME AlchemASSt Sarah Posted: 15 Aug 2018 04:55 PM PDT ARE YOU A HARD-CORE SUPPORT PLAYER? DO YOU WANT TO GIVE THE GIFT OF KEEPING PEOPLE ALIVE WITH LITTLE TO NO THANKS???? WELL DO I HAVE THE LOADOUT FOR YOU. First we go through each part if the loadout, if you want to know how to drench someone with healing juices scroll down
AlchemASSt Sarah is one of the only true support classes in the game (epic plz more alchemASSt heroes). Other than being AT LEAST 3c's on the thiccness scale, she has two unique perks and a unique tactical. The first perk is Hearty Blade which heals you BASED ON YOUR TECH every 4th hit with a sword, now if you're part of the outlander master race your tech stat should be at LEAST 100,000,000 (give or take a few million). The second perk is
Now if you have half a brain you could've made the connection that since Hearty Blade triggers on every 4th hit it would be beneficial that you have a sword that have very fast attack speed so here's this. Stabsworth The III: 30% Attack Speed, 14% Movement Speed, 20% Energy Damage, 30% Attack Speed, 45% Damage to Snared, Snare for 6s. This is one speedy boi you can literally stand in a crown of husks just healing with your AlchemASSt powers OR IF YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE PREMIUM BOIS Founders Blazing Mazume: (idontactuallyhaveonejustbutputlotsofattackspeedonitthanks)
(you can have whatever in this slot just remember this slot is used for prying off husks off of overwhelmed teammate) Obliterator: 30% Damage, 30% Crit Rate, 40% Phys Damage, 40% Headshot Damage, 36% Mist Monster Damage, Headshot Explosions THEY FIXED THE THING WHERE YOU'D ALWAYS MISS THE HEADSHOT SO GO FOR IT
I mean you already got all grounds covered, just pick your weapon of choice
These thicccies will bring your thiccness score to at least a 5c rating on the thiccness scale SUPPORT BONUS - HarvASSter Sarah: Boosts sword crit chance to help with the Corrosive Blade perk TACTICAL BONUS - AlchemASSt Sarah: if you look closely at the description of the Hearty Strikes tactical perk, it doesnt say anything about not being able to stack with the Hearty Blade perk so SLAP THAT SHIT ON THERE FOR DOUBLE THE HEALING HELL YEAH.
BAM thats it, go live with those husks you professional AlchemASSt! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 15 Aug 2018 08:19 AM PDT Why on earth would you remove power restrictions on horde, you have made it go from some people can't do horde, to NOBODY can do horde, so you really think a ok 90 will carry three 20's every game? No, just not gonna happen is it [link] [comments]  | ||

| My idea to make global chat better Posted: 15 Aug 2018 02:47 PM PDT I mean the global chat has such a huge potential to be useful and helpful. I really don't mind people looking for trades but the the spammer bots who offer boosting services and other RW trading have to go! So, here are a couple of really easy and simple fixes that I thought of and I am sure a lot of you have as well.
So what I am trying to say is - make the global chat a luxury to have not something we turn off in options and avoid completely. I know that with everything that is currently going on in the game this is least of the problem but I hope that EPIC can take some ideas from this post and work towards MAKE THE GLOBAL CHAT GREAT AGAIN! Thanks! [link] [comments]  | ||

| Instead of complaining about the bad players, let's start rewarding the good players. Posted: 15 Aug 2018 10:31 AM PDT I play as a ninja, and 90% of my eliminations come from sword or sniper. So I have maxed out ammo in just about every category, and constantly leave ammo behind when looting. I also love building trap tunnels and guiding the hordes. So if I show up to the objective and someone is already building and putting down traps, I give them my extra ammo. One of the conversations I had the other day: Me: Hey awesome build, do you need any ammo? Him: Sure, do you have any medium? Me: Here, is 2500 enough? Him: (pause)... uhhhm sure...? Me: Here you go. TLDR: Let's start rewarding positive behavior and ignore the negative behavior. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 15 Aug 2018 05:52 PM PDT Title. I was curious about this going in and didn't see a post, so I figured I'd post it here. It's pretty easy with decoy/rockets or a reclaimer and a few traps. Edit: Launchers do noticeably less damage than normal, but they're still able to take out husks, just a little slower. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Thoughts after playing for ~3 weeks Posted: 15 Aug 2018 02:45 PM PDT I purchased the game on sale exactly 3 weeks ago. Here are some of my thoughts, opinions, and possible fixes: 1) Trading - It's useless. I am PL38 at the moment, just about to enter Canny Valley. I have played a whole bunch in the last 3 weeks, and the thing I figured out was that trading is useless. The game is set up pretty logically with each "star" corresponding to a zone where the materials needed to craft them will drop pretty much in bulk. When I left Stonewood I had ~600 copper, as I am about to leave Plankerton I have ~800 silver. Trading is wholly unnecessary. That being said, people still want to do it, so, maybe they should implement an official trading system. The one I imagine involves a "right click" on someone's name (when in range and only during Stormshield non-defense) which will open a menu. Two things can happen on this menu. The first is one person can put an "item" in and the other person can "inspect" the item (durability, stars, perks, etc) as if it were in their inventory. Then, in response, the person can put their own stuff in. Then the first person "locks" the trade, meaning he can't alter his screen to remove/add more items. The second person then locks their items. There is a window where the second person can remove/alter/change his side, if that is unsatisfactory for the first person, they can "cancel" the trade at any point. Upon both players "locking" the trade, a final confirmation "accept" is made and if it goes well, the trade is made. The second function is that a player can drag/drop schematics into the trade window. When this is done, the second player is then given the option to add his own materials to the window. The player can choose "how many" he wants to create, and upon entering his materials, he can press the "craft" button and the other player will craft the items which will be automatically traded to the other player. Included in this menu will be a "tip" or "fee" for the crafter that they can charge, be it extra materials or whatever. This would eliminate all the "scammer get scammed" spam as it will be a double confirmation trade system that can't really be "scammed" 2) Upgrading Weapons - One of the main reasons I decided to leave Stonewood was that I unlocked the ability to level my Siegebreaker to 2 stars. Unbeknownst to me, that meant it no longer required the mats I had an abundance of and required mats I had very little of. This should be fixed or highlighted, perhaps in a literal popup window that lets players know. This will probably only be relevant to new players because making this mistake once will probably be enough. As it is, I have upgraded my three main weapons to 3star despite not being in Canny only because I have consistently found sturdy parts/malachite in level 40+ missions in Plank and have ~200 mal and 300 sturdy parts. 3) Global Chat Spam - The solution is actually simple. First: make player names different from text colors, IE, makes player names "yellow" or "green" and text white. When you "click" on a players name in chat, a context menu appears showing: PL, slotted class, and Epic name/etc, invite, block, mute. The player info is already available on Stormshield. The second thing you can do is "double click" their name and this will instantly mute them. Now, if Epic lets everyone know that everyone can double-click, or double tap, or whatever, peoples names they could then check to see metrics of that info. If 20 people in chat all mute the same person, it isn't a stretch of the imagination that the person being muted is probably a spammer. Idk how many people are in "chatrooms" at any given time, so maybe adjust that 20 up accordingly. 4) Collection Book - This thing is wonderful, however, one of the things that irk me is that the guns in there lack their description/flavor text which might outline how they work. Also, it should scale with quest progression. Given the immense cost of "researching" the schematic (a legendary is 100 flux, 100 magazines) these costs only affect new players. Every "old" player I have seen has literally millions of schematic XP and thousands of covers, but just getting started in the game and the cost being prohibitive really, especially when if I buy one know it will come out 1 star. Why not let it come out at whatever level we need or 1 star lower? IE: if you are in Plankerton you get a 2star weap, CV you get a 3star etc. 5) Mission length - One of my favorite missions currently are the "destroys the encampments" ones because, I can solo the 5 objective encampments and the 4 super encampments of a PL34/40 mission in around 15 minutes, with a buddy we can pound them out in ~7 minutes. This is ideal, and some of the objectives of other missions are decidedly longer for no real reason. Example, deliver the bomb. Why is it so friggin slow? The concept is cool but the thing is ridiculously slow AND on top of it being slow, afterward, you have to defend the launcher as well. To me, THAT should be the "meat" of the mission, not the 8 minutes of riding the bomb to the launcher. To me, the bomb should be faster and the enemy waves a little more aggressive (based on Plankerton experience, maybe it does get harder as you level?) 6) Reset Homebase - This thing would be amazing. Let us go to the storm shield and in the menu "destroy" our base, maybe refunding some of the materials used and traps, so we can rebuild. My Stonewood base is MASSIVE. For no reason. And it's all level 3 steel. It would take me hours to destroy it, but I would LOVE to redesign it. Would be a nice thing to be able to do that. 7) Party Privacy settings - Why is this tied to my ability to find people to play with exactly, especially if I select "play with others?" The storm shield "request help" thing should supersede your privacy settings, especially considering you might have BR friends trying to join your party and fucking up stuff, things normally avoided by setting the party to private. Really annoying. 8) Separation of BR and STW (Keybinds, settings, etc) - Why do they overlap when, having played them both, they are VERY different games. They should have separate settings and keybinds as they are separate games. 9) Building consistency - In BR you can build anywhere, even if it clips in the ground. In STW it is way more finicky, but sometimes doesn't make sense. I can drop a wall over a stone wall and have that stone wall break instantly, but I can't drop a floor on top of a partially destroyed floor and break the last little bit that isn't destroyed. I can build "through" a car or RV or a tree, but not a slight incline? Maybe loosen up on some of the restrictions. I understand that some of them are needed for "balance" such as not being able to drop a full wall on a terrain ramp cause you could drop launcher trap, but some of the things just seem silly. 10) Weapon favoriting/queuing - One of the things that kind of annoys me is that when I break a gun, it will often choose a higher level gun in my inventory, or a launcher, instead of replacing the broken gun with the exact same weapon with full durability that I already have. Maybe allow us to "queue" weapons per slot, meaning, when that gun "breaks" the next gun in the queue will be equipped to that particular slot. It's minor, but it would be nifty. That is all. So far I am enjoying STW more than I am BR, to the point where I bought STW for free VBucks and ended up spending the ~4800 VBucks I had earned on Smorgasbord Llamas and such. It's a great game, I hope they don't Paragon it. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 15 Aug 2018 10:16 AM PDT We really need more cutscenes in the game. I thought it was so cool back when i was playing tutorial but after that i was quite dissapointed I thought they were a good way of making the game have personality. I know it still has personality with its amazing dialogue (i know its a lot to ask) but the cutscenes would make it much better. [link] [comments]  |
