What about the Crown Sprite that wasn't mastered in our collection after a crown win?

¿No tienen pensado arreglar que no aparezcan todos los edificios de gotham city en los mundos de Lego Fortnite? En mi mundo hacen faltan 2 de ellos. ¿Qué me dicen respecto al menú de construcción? está presentando varios errores al querer navegar en él. La aldea de Trace y sus misiones llevan meses sin funcionar, su aldea no existe en los mundos y es molesto que te aparezca que completes sus misiones si no se pueden hacer.

So no fix for the people who use dual inputs? Lock input as mouse has been broken for a while and a bunch of people can't play because of it...

Hi, Epic Games team!

I would like to report an issue with the Laufey skin, which was the headliner of the previous Fortnite Festival season.

When the skin was released, the dress had beautiful, natural movement and flowed like real fabric. However, after some players complained that the physics "interfered with gameplay," the dress was changed. It now looks extremely stiff and rigid, almost as if it were made of a solid material.

Please consider bringing back the original dress physics. Even better, add an option in the Styles tab to choose between the original flowing dress and the current rigid version. This would satisfy both sides: players who prefer the original movement and those who found the physics distracting.

This is also a concern shared by other players who purchased the outfit. One player pointed out that the outfit was one way when purchased, only to be changed afterward, and said they would expect an edit style for the dress physics or a refund option. As another player put it: "I really hope they revert to the previous physics, because they announce it one way, but in-game it's something else entirely, which isn't right. Reverting it would be ideal, but an option in the Styles tab to switch between the original flowing dress and the current rigid one would also be a good solution."

The attached images compare the dress in its current state with how it looked upon release.

Thank you for reading this report. I sincerely hope you consider restoring the original physics, either as the default or as an optional style. Many players, myself included, would love to see Laufey's dress move naturally again.

Please fix these bugs and awkward mechanics in Star Wars.

• When firing (left-clicking) while piloting aircraft such as the X-wing, weapons do not fire immediately for some reason. I am not sure if this is intended or a bug, but it feels very inconvenient. Weapons should fire instantly whenever the button is pressed under any circumstance.

• When flying at high speed with the Enhanced Mandalorian Jetpack, pressing SHIFT frequently fails to stop the high-speed flight. It is very frustrating to deal with.
