I know a lot of posts have been made since the start of season 10 but I have hit my limit today.
Fortnite on Nintendo Switch is literally unplayable right now. This is coming from someone who has played since season 2. Through all the bugs and low fps the game has always ran decently but this season it's just..the worst. I fear my patience has run out in season 10.
Look, I know the Switch isn't as capable as the other consoles or PC, but this season has had zero performance updates for the Switch and it's really disheartening to see every other platform get performance updates while the Switch is left in the dust. I think we had one update in 10.10 but I sure as hell didn't feel that performance was better. I love this game and i don't have another platform to play on. All we're asking for is the game to return to a playable, stable state with consistent FPS.. not consistent FPS Drops!
- We're back to landing at places that don't load. Any place where lots of people drop is a nightmare. Buildings don't render and it stutters like crazy when you land.
- Physics? What physics?.. outfits are atrocious and most cosmetics that hang down just have the boner effect and stick straight out. this has been going on for a long time..
- There have been multiple times this season where when i launch from the bus, My character is a default and my umbrella is invisible. Halfway through dropping, my character loads. WTF.
- Team Rumble is unplayable. FPS mostly runs from 5-15 and unless I'm by myself, away from everything, it runs at 30. Team Rumble has always been playable on switch and this season it's complete garbage. Most of us casuals play TR and this bums me out the most.
- There's a bug when you first boot up FN and when you go to the Challenge screen you can't scroll left or right with the joy stick. Another issue that seems to be fine once you scroll through some other menus or use the d pad.
- I've never seen this game stutter and freeze so much since this season started. I'll be running and it'll just freeze suddenly. Build battles and shotgun battles are nearly impossible because of how much the game stutters and freezes when you're in close proximity to others. Note: My ping is always really good.
- WHY the HELL have we not gotten the option to kill shadows, textures, effects, view distance? EVERY platform has this option except the Switch. I don't care if my graphics look like mobiles. If the game runs better than it's more than worth the aesthetic of how things look.
- Is aim assist even a thing? Seems broken especially with ARs.
C'mon Epic. Give us a chance against these mobile players. This game runs like complete trash right now and your Switch community feels ignored. Every update has been a HUGE let down.
Here are some links to how the game is running in its current state.
Looking through the Ship at Lazy Lagoon..
Recent post about a lot of bugs in good detail
tl;dr : EPIC, FIX YOUR GAME ON NINTENDO SWITCH. YOUR SWITCH COMMUNITY FEELS IGNORED. SURE, YOU MAY HAVE PUT THE ISSUES ARE ON TRELLO, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE IN SEASON 10 TO TRULY IMPROVE PERFORMANCE ON THE SWITCH.
