5.20 Patch Notes

v5.20 Known Issues

Hi 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:

 

**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.

We've also included some important links that we find may help you out. We'll continue to update them as necessary.

Player Reporting Update!

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 11:50 AM PDT

Heya folks,

We've heard the discussion about the toxic players within Save the World and your experience when you run into these players. We introduced our Player Reporting system a bit ago and have since been collecting data on the type of behaviors we had seen.

 

An initial ban/warn wave went out four weeks ago, and we've been ensuring we confirm the data on our end before taking any additional steps. We feel confident in our current report system to take that additional step now and have rolled out another wave.

 

It's been a bit since our first wave, but following this set we plan to run regular waves. We're going to be learning a lot here as we add to the report system and with your feedback we can get it to a great place!

 

Thanks,

New Enemy Idea: Elon Husk - Uses Tesla Coil Based Electric Attacks

New side quests grant 2 mythic survivors (yes, survivors, not mythic lead survivors)

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 02:59 PM PDT

Hey Epic! Great update today. But when is this going to be fixed?

PSA If You Didn’t Receive Your 3 Free Birthday Llamas, Read Inside

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 11:34 AM PDT

You need to get at least 50 Roadtrip tickets in your inventory for the llamas to appear. Play some game and get some tickets and you're all good.

Update: Any amount of tickets will do to trigger the free llamas to appear. It won't appear if you have 0 tickets in your inventory.

Can we have clear editing in STW?

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 01:10 PM PDT

I understand why they removed it from BR but why is it a thing in STW? I don't see it being that big of an issue, considering that we don't really build that much in STW (I'm a new player so I may be wrong).

Report system actually does work. (not me)

More enemies incoming- *watch out*!

Epic, now that the Birthday Event is passed...

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 10:03 AM PDT

Can you please take a month to do bug-fixes, system streamlining, and error correction? Maybe look at the report backlogs, respond to issues, hire and train some customer service personnel. No new additions or modes, just working out the kinks that have built up lately.

I bought Fortnite on launch day, and even I was missing enough stuff from past events to be happy just testing gained goods out and reveling in long-lost rewards for the time being. I don't need new stuff, right now. I just want my old stuff to work.

Bring back old jump mechanic

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 12:41 PM PDT

I shall never understand why it was changed to work identical to the modes free counterpart. If anything, I'd prefer it to be how it was previously in stw in both modes, it is much more useful to be able to control your jump.

While you're at it bring back the old camera angle too!

[DATAMINE] New Heroes in 5.20.0

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 04:17 AM PDT

PLEASE stop adding new content and start working on a performance update

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 04:39 PM PDT

The game gets laggier and buggier update after update and i'm sick of it. Stop wasting your time on creating new content, there is more than enough content right now to keep us interested in the game. Also, stop adding shit that no one asked for. No one asked for a new FOV did they? Also, consider that not all things that exist in BR work in STW... Overall there needs to be more focus on performance updates and bug fixes, it's starting to get really ridiculous at this point.

Stop adding features from the other mode please.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 04:18 AM PDT

Dear Epic,

I noticed you were making some changes to Save the World to make it more "seamless" to switch between modes.

1) Pickaxe animation changed in the other mode for easier headshots. Affects Save the World. Meaningless change.

2) Jump height is maximum by default since last update. Can't do low jumps anymore. The same as in the other mode.

3) And last but not least, the camera is closer and lower to the player, just like how it is in the other mode. Very meaningless change and honestly makes me want to puke because that camera angle isn't good for Save the World.

Please stop making this game resemble the other mode. They should remain their seperate things. Stuff like this just throws me off.

Dear Epic, the vote to start the mission is a bad change.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 10:11 AM PDT

Before this change, you could collect the bluglo and put it into the van to signal the others that are still farming that you wanna start getting ready for the mission. Now that indication is gone so if youve collected the bluglo and nobodys built anything yet you have to explicitly tell them to do so or ask if they want to just shoot or need more time to farm. Before this change, you could tell what everyone wanted without saying anything which is particularly handy when not everybody speaks the same language eg on the Asia and EU servers.

I think you should have left it so we could still put the bluglo into the van first and then ask to vote when someone actually wants to start the objective.

For the Deliver The Bomb mission, the vote thing comes up when you want to move the bomb but it does not prompt when starting the launcher. I think this is done the wrong way around because when people grief they grief on the launcher not on moving the bomb which respawns if it is destroyed.

Also when it is prompting the other people to vote, it is very easy to miss it. I think there should be a audio cue or the text could be bigger and maybe flash it a few times.

Shuriken Master Llamurai sorta kinda doesn't fit on the platform when you view him.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 05:17 PM PDT

I'M DONE, EPIC!

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 03:36 PM PDT

FIX THE CRASHING!

Before 5.2 this was happening multiple times a day. Now, it is somehow more often. Also, I cannot access my weapons, teddy, shock tower, etc for about 15 seconds after waking an encampment or a defense wave starting. So that's fun.

I just spent 45 combined minutes doing two different 4 Player missions, both which crashed for all players during the defense stage of the mission.

What happens: All players freeze, but can turn on axis, chat, but no movement. All NPCs are running in place, then the disconnect, rejoin screen (which fails twice) then it says Game Not Available.

I lose all the resources, tapes, ammo, and my TIME... and get no reward. I seriously am fuming. I love this game, and support it through purchases. Don't lose your loyal base by spending all you dev time making Battle Royale features present in StW.

By the way guys... We don't have answers to a ton of our requests and bugs BUT PLAYERS CAN HONK THE HORN IN THEIR ATKs NOW!

Please. Please, please.

u/magyst

EDIT 1: I'm on Xbox One

EDIT 2: I will say this for a possible piece to the puzzle. The last two times it happened, I went to try the mission again and it had changed (ie. from Evacuate to Cat 4, etc).

This new peak/ads view sucks

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 11:05 AM PDT

Been playing BR since season 1. Recently started playing STW. I think i’m getting the hang of it.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 01:56 PM PDT

Great report system Epic. Guess who didn't get a report message.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 04:48 PM PDT

Finally, my E button is safe. You automatically collect items from Llamas.

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 06:39 AM PDT

Epic what are you guys doing?

Posted: 07 Aug 2018 10:02 AM PDT

I feel like their QA just be playing STW for vbucks in BR? How can they release a patch that does more harm than good? They just pushed changes from BR to STW (to save time and not force themselves to work on something they don't care about) anymore without compatibility to STW. Ghost peeking husks? OP as fuck. Zoomed in FOV ? Constructor best class ingame. Actually playing the game despite all those bug? Game and/or server crashes. Jump height not variable anymore, Taxis still possible, just a few things.

Epic i know BR is more important to you and we're just the annoying STW peasants but AT LEAST MAKE THE GAME PLAYABLE.
