Fortnite: Save the World Dev Tracker

Have you guys talked about expanding the storm shields in any way? For example a lot of people here have suggested an "endless" mode for storm shields similar to Frostnite with waves of enemies of increasing difficulty. u/chrisd848

There are a suite of improvements planned for Storm Shields that are currently in development. These are tentatively planned for some time in Season 9. This includes new combat challenges in the Storm Shield, resetting the Storm Shield after a failure, and being able to tear down your base in a quick and effective way.

This is still in active development!

Are there any plans to revamp the daily coin system. Not so much earning them but better uses for them. u/Cali4niaRose

In Season 8 Daily Coins are being removed entirely and replaced by Gold. Existing daily coins will be converted to Gold.

Q: Are there plans for new traps or trap improvements in the foreseeable future? u/Kindalagging

A: Yes. We will be adding a cool new wall trap in the latter half of Season 8, and plan to continue adding traps in the future.

Performance/Console issues

We’ve not been super great on communication here, so we do want to confirm we’re aware of the console and performance issues and consider them very high priority. Late last year, we did a big push to improve client game thread performance and eliminate hitches due to loading assets during play. Once some progress was made on this front, it became clear that we had other classes of issues still degrading the ...

Hey everyone!

Hero Loadout Incoming! Patch v8.0 approaches!

Downtime begins tomorrow, February 28 at 4 AM ET (0900 UTC).

Thank you!

Well, they do say "It's a trap!"

Well done.

He won't be a reskin of UAH any more. He's got a unique perk like most heroes. Hope you like it. :)

New players only have a commander slot; slots are revealed as you progress and have explanation tutorials as they unlock.

Don't worry, we have a solution for you. ;) (As noted by Magyst)

8.0

That's correct. You can only apply each unique perk once.

Redundant perks don't stack, so there's no need for multiple copies of the same hero.

Any redundant perks (whether it's a support hero redundant with the commander or two support heroes with the same perk) will generate a warning indicator that tells you they are redundant and indicates you won't be receiving them twice.

We have something planned to help with this.

We have a solution for you :)

What if it was 4 jumps in total? <3

I'm really excited to see where you take this loadout, Sushii.
