**Explanation**: For the third week in a row I am posting this, 'Play wargames with challenge' award (25 ticket) still not being rewarded consistently. Kind of frustrating as I have run probably 50+ war games without getting the extra 25 tickets, which does add up after a while. No mention in the patch notes, and no fix.

**Evidence**: I have played around 10 war games today and not got it in any of them. I previously posted last week that the only times I have received that reward was when I searched for help, or when I was in a party with someone else who searched for help. Any time I run them without searching for help I don't get it.

**If replicable, how**: Play wargames without searching for help and you will not get this reward too.

**Platform**: XBox.

Thanks Frag, I've seen this mentioned and reported it over to the team to dig in.

I haven't seen a response yet, but it would be nice to hear from u/Magyst on this one. This has been happening for some time and it seems to be happening to a decent amount of people. 25 tickets per Wargame over x number of Wargames that we have all been missing out on for some of us would be adding up to quite a large number of tickets, especially with the Birthday llamas coming up and people likely increasing their farming activities in light of that.

Thanks for the tag on this. I'll shoot this over for deeper investigations.

Explanation: Grenade arc is very, very short now, at least in STW. Looking forward distance seems to be a tile or less.

Evidence:

If replicable, how: Try to throw a grenade STW.

Platform: PC

Thanks! I'll have the team take a pass to make sure it's working correctly.

If replicable, how: Just try it.

Platform: Doesn't matter, I guess

Thanks for the heads up!

But it's not an event item or anything. It's in the normal section of the Collection Book, you can research it, it's available through Llamas (at least the Epic one is), and the Rare version is even given out for free for logging in in one of the first couple of weeks.

Correct. We did this same thing last year. This weapon fits with the Independence Day theme as it shoots fireworks. This is why this weapon and all of those heroes are coming back to the store.

There is a new quest that you get each day. The quest can stack and will won't disappear until the event is over.

Can you please elaborate on the summer fun - a new quest each day, complete 14 for a weapon? Do you have to do the quests each day or can they compile (and perhaps we have a bit more time after to finish)?

I’m going on vacay and I’ve never missed anything before. Don’t want to start now. Tear.

Thanks! The roadmap looks fun!

There is a new quest available each day. They will not expire until the 14 days are over.

I thought the Freedom's Herald was a normally obtainable pistol? Am I wrong?

Returning in this case means they are returning to the store.

I'm kinda mad dev Jason made a post saying tickets would be cashed in for sci fi llamas at the end of season 9, now they've changed it to bday llamas after I've spent most of mine because of that statement .

Sorry I didn't mean to cause confusion! I just didn't want to spill the beans on the BDay Llama early before /u/Magyst announced it officially.

Note that if you have leftover tickets at the end of the season they will be converted into Sci-Fi Llamas (not Military or BDay).

  • Go into your launcher
  • Under Fortnite.. Click on the gear (it's beside launch)
  • Click options
  • Make sure Fortnite Save the World is checked.
  • Click Apply

This will ensure that Fortnite STW is properly installed. If that does not work, then try a full uninstall / re-install.

Thanks for the tag :)

Had a chat with the designers on this. Just to clarify, the Rescue the Survivors missions are not intended to reward players with the "People" resource. So it's intended that you don't get them from that mission type.

If you are doing other missions and not receiving them.. make sure that you aren't at people cap!

Thank you everyone. I'm going to re-raise this with the design team. Definitely not the intention to do anything without properly telling the community. We're going to dive back in and take a look at this.

Going to quote my comment here in case it gets missed for you guys.

Apologies on the miscommunication there. By "take another look at this" I mean look into why they aren't properly granting them. The mission wasn't intended to give them at first. However, it's not something we're going to change since it's been this way for so long.

So we're going to be correcting this in v9.30 as we've found the root cause of it :) Thank you guys for being so passionate and calling us on our mistakes.

Don't know why I even bother hoping and checking this sub anymore :(

It most certainty is :) Definitely a very talented individual.

Thanks for the post u/RagnaXI. I'll shoot this over to our team to verify. I actually didn't have any of mine covered and I didn't get any spawns. But this is definitely a valid theory and I'll have some testing done on it. Thank you!

Comment

This is a great write up! Constructive feedback is always welcome and appreciative. I'll shoot this over to our hero design team. However, please keep in mind that I can't ever guarantee that changes will come from this. But it's good feedback :)
