The problem with their original attack and why people didn't like it was that bees are a very effective area denial attack, it could stack and you had no counterplay except leaving that area. And then you had your wave RNG that could overwhelm you with bee husks.

So as a part of a bigger rework beehives stopped sending bee clouds and instead we've received beehive lobbers with the added counterplay of being able to clear the bees by destroying the thrown beehive.

What’s a founder shield?

It's a shared boost icon displayed by the daily XP bonus and your account level.

You probably clicked "More" > "Tile size" on the Schematic page while in menus. This affects tile size throughout the whole UI

Do you have a link to video/screenshots depicting the issue?

Reminder: With the release of next gen consoles, it's important to include which platform you're on

Should there be a need, members of the Epic Games Community Team may reach out to you with additional questions.

/r/FORTnITE moderators are unaffiliated with Epic Games, and are in no way associated with the Epic Games Community Team that may reach out to users.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Issue:
Not seeing this on the Trello, but since 33.30 the volume boundaries of some secondary objectives around the map (radar towers, survivor antennas etc) now have a collision. Not all objectives are affected, I've only seen this on some of the smaller radar towers and the survivor antenna.

These boundaries seem to block pretty much all the weapon fire. It's not the objective itself, but the volume it occupies and clears if it's spawned near the buildings/trees. The bow trajectory previs also reacts to this collision.

Platform: PC, but this most likely affects all platforms

Relatively, yeah.

Thanks for your thoughtful response. I must asks what your acronyms means.

Please dont police me because I don't understand where else to post

Edit: I logged in successfully non Google

StW is Save The World, the original Fortnite game mode. You posted in the subreddit that's specifically for this mode

The best thing you can get here is the founder's pistol, if that's the one I'm thinking about, Founder's revolt. The rest of the stuff is only useful for a starting player.

Curious, where exactly you ran into this?

The error mentioned at the end is pretty much telling - I assume you want to login into your account via Google, but the useragent info of the app is blocked on Google's side. Keep in mind that logging in in a different browser, like this screen says won't solve the login in this app.

Useragent is pretty much the app telling the server it connects to what it is, e.g. for my browser that's something like "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:134.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/134.0". If that's not an official Epic app, that may be a sign not to login into it. If that's an official Epic app, Google blocking it via useragent on their side makes some rather interesting implications. UPD: apparently that's a thing with in-app webview that's been on Android for a while for multiple other apps.

P.S. Is this the right subreddit? This one is for StW and StW is not available on mobile

Just Epic, same stats. And I wouldn't say perks were better, I don't think these were curated. The main difference was that before perk rework Epic weapons could also have special perks at lvl 20 (e.g. affliction or headhot streek dmg bonus) and Founder's weapons had this special perk as the first unlockable perk at lvl5.

On PC it's 300% easier if you use the "Selected building type" bind. This binding is only available when in StW and what it does is changes your building selection to match an already placed piece. Need a quarter floor? Look at one you already placed and press the key.

It heavily debuffs (IIRC -90%) ranged damage to any husk that's inside the cloud, meaning after a few kills the husk crowd is inside the cloud and your gun is suddenly a peashooter.

This has been a thing for ages. All the bows are tried are affected by that. Xenon, compression bow, etc. When you first install the traps they're in a "dormant" state, they will not react to your arrows. However when the first husk projectile enters their radius they'll "wake up" and from that moment on will also target your arrows.

My hypothesis based on these results is that there are at least 19k accounts with access to STW that plan on purchasing from the OG store. Assuming each account buys at least one skin, this is a highly lucrative move for Epic. It's a good thing they fixed the "fragile trap" bug before they announced the OG store.

Considering this data only includes players who have Save the World and had the time to invest immediately in XP farming, it suggests an even bigger payout from the full BR userbase.

Not that you guys care. I was just observing "out loud" some interesting implications of this data.

More like 15K. If you go to fortnitegg and zoom out to a week, you'll see that there is always a spike around midnight UTC, usually up to 30K. It's just this time it's bigger. Also, now that there's more time passed, you can see that this is most likely unrelated to focused XP farming as CCU curve drops exactly the same way as on previous days of the week.

I think you may be in the wrong subreddit, for Battle Royale you want https://reddit.com/r/FortniteBR This subreddit is specifically for Save the World mode

Comment

You don't need to create a new Epic account to link it, your PS Fortnite account is already an Epic account, just without an email or Epic name - that's how Fortnite is able to save your progress.

What you need to do is login on the Epic website using your PSN account, then click your name in the upper right corner, select "Account" and set username, email, etc
