Quick update.

We disabled Save the World as Stormshield Storage was being wiped by playing the Frostnite event.

We are currently confirming that there is no other source of data loss and are going to disable the Frostnite event and re-enable Save the World after we are confident.

Next up, figuring out what we can do for players impacted by the data loss.

Hey everyone,

 

Due to last minute issues discovered within the build, we’ve had to delay the timing for the release of the v7.10 update.

 

We’ll provide more details on an exact time once we have more information.

 

Thanks.

On that note I'll certainly be a Husky boy after this Christmas Dinner.

Would hate to see what happens if you ate a Sploder...

In update 7.10, we will be converting Damage Resistance perks to use a new stat called Armor. Armor is configured such that +1 armor is equivalent to +1% longer survival time under fire, making it consistently valuable per point regardless of the amount. For instance, if you have 30 armor, you will survive 30% longer under fire than you would with 0 armor. This is in contrast to the current implementation of Damage Resistance, where simply adding percentages together makes each perk more powerful than the last, skewing build diversity.

 

To illustrate this problem, imagine you have a DR perk that grants 50% resistance, which halves the incoming damage and makes you twice as hard to kill. If you add a second 45% perk on top it drops the incoming damage to 5%, which makes you TWENTY times harder to kill. Armor will make these times grow linearly instead, which lets us give you more defensive options to choose from without having to hed...

Hey everyone, thank you so much for the feedback so far. Just something to note... for some reason the chart wasn't properly showing on Reddit's new format vs the old. (It was only showing 1 column). Both versions of Reddit should now properly show the comparison from the Current System and the Armor System. I apologize for that!

Hey Everyone!

Hope everyone is enjoying 7.0 in Save the World!

 

As mentioned in our previous State of Development, we have a new Hero System in the works! We wanted to take a moment to share some information regarding upcoming Heroes. All of the new heroes arriving before the Hero Loadout redesign will be reskins of currently available ones. However, once it launches, you’ll find that every one of these Heroes adds a unique benefit.

 

Creating reskins of the current classes is only a temporary measure to give us more time to focus on making sure the new system is in top form - we want to deliver a great personalized gameplay experience once the feature launches early next year.

 

Additionally, we’ll be updating all the members of Steel Wool to “Mythic” rarity, and they will be getting unique perks and abilities once Hero Loadout goes live!

 

We appreciate your patience as we put the finishing touches on this new redesign!

Don't tell us we gonna have the same Tube weapons like previous year ...

We have a great line up of completely new weapons coming :) There will be a mix of new and returning weapons throughout this event.

P.S.. The new weapons are amazing.

Hey everyone! While is an awesome visual bug.. it's still a bug that needs fixing because something could be breaking on the backend.

If you encounter this can you please use the "Feedback" option in the top right, click Bug Report, and add the title of "Incorrect pose in Lobby".

Additionally, PC players can find a copy of their client logs at this location: "C:\Users\AppData\Local\FortniteGame\Saved\Logs." You can send them to me over reddit in a google document link OR you send them to me over discord. Magyst #8046

Both of these steps will give us a copy of your logs so we can see what is happening with your client.

Soo...I've been floating around this sub for a rather long time...and everytime a new event exclusive Hero or Weapon (Sometimes other things) emerges from the event / weekly store..the same question is asked:

Should I get -fill in the blank- this week?

Well...the obvious answer might be Yes but why? I have 2 very good (imo) reasons why you should always strive to obtain any and all event exclusive items!

  • As many of you know, we had the lovely Birthday Llamas who provided us goodies from every event from the first event leading right up to it. Not only that...but the duplication prevention kicked in right around that time too! That being said...the more things you have in your Collection Book and/or Storage...the easier it will be to get the stuff you are missing. TLDR If you get an item now...you won't have to worry about potentially "wasting" a B...

+1 to /u/DrVinderman

Mentioned in our October State of Development, we have a new Hero System in the works. This system will allow for some pretty cool customization options and it will be beneficial to have a broad selection of Heroes when it goes live.

He did! /u/Geralt33 certainly knows his weapons.

I have laughed out loud so many times at Lok and Ray's lines and of course Beat-Bots perfect comedic timing. But also how much soul Rays voice actor puts into her lines, perfect!

The narrative team absolutely knocked it out of the park with the writing. It is incredible to see it all brought to life. Lok is definitely one of my all time favorites :)

Yep! You can get another Airheart If you bought the first one before 7.0.
