Fortnite: Save the World Dev Tracker

Hey everyone,

Welcome to Wargames! Downtime for Season 9 begins tomorrow, May 9 at 4 AM ET(0800 UTC).

Thank you!

No problem, this is pure gold!

OKAY... this is great.

Thank you so much for this!

Okay.. this has officially made my morning. Would love to use this as my work background XD

Thank you!

Hey everyone!

In v8.50 we made some adjustments to the top end of Twine Peaks and we’ve been keeping a close watch on the discussions regarding these changes. We definitely understand the need that top end players have for things like higher-end crafting materials and, more importantly, Epic and Legendary PERKUP.

Because of this, we’ll be making the following changes in v9.0:

Twine Peaks

• We are currently evaluating the distribution of XP versus Perk and Evolution Materials to determine if a greater change to XP is necessary. In the short term, we’re increasing the frequency of all rewards in high-end Twine Peaks missions with the exception of XP rewards, to allow these other reward types to appear more often.
• Reorganization of Twine Peaks:
  • Twine Peaks missions will now follow a more linear path which offers greater readability than the existing “pie-chart” structure.
  • We’re adding more missio...

Thank you for putting your time and dedication into this infographic, u/Whitesushii. You've definitely delivered the feedback in a very well written way and it's very constructive.

The Dev team and I thought this was a very good read and are always a fan of the stuff you put together. Thank you!

Thanks for the tag u/CatstructorPenny!

u/Hugomane, can you check your DMs for me please!

This is absolutely incredible to see! I also just finished reading your write up of "How it's made". Thank you for taking the time to create and share this med..I mean masterpiece with the community!

We'll release a roadmap after S9 launches. We don't want to ruin the surprises S9 has!

There was a separate issue regarding Medbot that was fixed in v8.30.

We have another fix going in for v9.0.

We've begun scheduled maintenance on our Party Services. You may notice some limited functionality with those services during this time. We'll provide a status update once this maintenance has completed.

UPDATE, 9:22AM ET:
The scheduled maintenance for Party Services has completed.

Squad up and drop into the battle!

Thank you for pointing that out, I didn't realize I had done that. Magyst took it down as soon as he was made aware.

This is correct! Season 9 is right around the corner and we don't want to spoil any of the surprises.

We're aware of the discussions around higher difficulty missions vs rewards given. We're still having some discussions around this and should have more information to share next week.

I'll try. There is still no guarantee as we're still discussing and diving into the sentiment. We're looking into a lot of different things (discussions, data, reports, streamer feedback, etc). If it doesn't land this week.. we'll get it out next week. I definitely don't want to tell you guys something now.. and then have it change.

Thank you!

Hey everyone!

Have a Duet between you…. And the Husk! The v8.51 update launches tomorrow, May 2nd at 5AM ET(0900 UTC).

Thanks for letting us know! We'll have someone take a look into this.

Anyone who is impacted by this should use the "Submit Feedback" / "Report Bug" option immediately after this happens.

This will give us a clear understanding of how this is happening.
