Hey, Epic Dev Team, there was a bug last season that prevented me from driving cars properly with the controller triggers on mobile therefore making my experience VERY unenjoyable. Would you mind fixing it this time around? Thanks, your loyal Fortnite player.

Verifique o problema da PlayStation no barra pesada. O jogador não consegue deslizar e nem esgueirar. Mas após morrer sim. (Tem que perder um amuleto do retorno)

Hey guys, all the middle east players are playing on 100+ ping for the past 5-6 days and It's crazy how you guys are not able to fix it in such long time?

FIX THE FPS DROP ON EMOTE WHEEL PLEASEEEEEEE

There’s still a bug in brick life where if you move a piece of decor you can’t place it anywhere you had it before, whether your just wanting to move it a smidge you have to remove it and replace it.

There’s also a marker bug in brick life, random markers keep being placed and the sound is awful.
