I sniped a player who was downed by fall damage. His shield carried over to his downed state and survived a 157 heavy sniper shot (replay showed him having around 70 shield on top of his 100hp when he was downed). Is this intentional or a bug?

I'll get this off to the QA team for them to look into.

Explanation:

Fortnite has to be force-closed whenever starting the Xbox, otherwise the game first says you've been logged out and have to retry, and then doesn't load correctly. Character model is usually invisible and the game mode won't change from Team Rumble.

Evidence:

Photo.

If replicable, how:

Turn on xbox when not in energy saving mode, and click on Fortnite (resume).

Platform:

Xbox One S

Thanks so much for the details and evidence. I've reported this to our QA team for investigation.

If replicable, how: enable random gliders and drop from the battle bus

Platform: PC (probably all)

Has been in the game since it came out

Thanks for the report! We're aware of this issue and our QA team is investigating it.

Explanation: Deadfire skin and shackled stone backbling are no longer reactive. Ever since the season 7 update came out, neither the deadfire skin nor his associated backbling shackled stone have been changing colors as part of the reactive effect. There appears to be no issue with the dark shard pickaxe, however.

Evidence: Stage 1 to stage 2 (41-40th place): https://gfycat.com/ExcitableGlumBoa

Stage 2 to stage 3 (11-10th place): https://gfycat.com/IdolizedSeparateAsiaticgreaterfreshwaterclam

If Replicable, how: by playing a normal match with deadfire

Platform: Any

Much appreciation on the report and additional evidence. I've sent this off to the QA team for investigations.

Evidence: https://streamable.com/pkfgi

If replicable, how: I have no idea how this happened, so I have no idea how to replicate it. First noticed as I was trying to loot a chest after being downed from falling of a zip-line with build into the zip-line.

Platform: PC

Thanks for the additional information! We're investigating this issue and are working towards a fix.

-Can't provide evidence. Trust me on this

-Replicable by loading up into a game. I tried to re-start fortnite, doesnt work

-PS4 Pro

We're currently investigating reports of long load times for some players. Thanks for the report!

Busts into the room

"FAWK, Jim, we forgot vending machines in the snow area!"

Pauses while holding candy bar in front of mouth

"Huh..."

Lol, this is pretty accurate.

Thanks for calling this out. Yeah, we did forget. We will add vending machines to the snow biome area in 7.20

Hey folks,

For those who are curious, the release of the Driftboard will still be delayed. This update is for the overall build release.

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.

For those asking about my tease earlier, there will indeed be a vehicle health bar added to the UI.

Hey folks,

I wanted to drop in and give a sneak peek at the quality of life / balance changes coming in v7.10 for the Stormwing.

  • Stormwings now take 50% more damage from hitting objects.
    • Boosting now reduces the damage taken from impacts by 50%, previously boosting prevented all impact damage.
  • Damage done to players that are in a Stormwing when it’s shot down has been increased from 25 to 50
    • Damage is dealt directly to health.
  • Stormwings will now take more damage from destroying structures by running through them.
  • Fixed some performance issues with the Stormwing which could lead to reduced frame rate and movement corrections.

Lots more bug fixes and quality of life changes coming in v7.10!

Probably will be released later in the day. They said the timing which could possibly mean later tomorrow or I actually might just be wrong and it’s delayed for a day

Fingers crossed. We'll get it out to all of you as soon as we can!

Hey folks,

We know we set the expectation for the Driftboard to release in the coming update. Unfortunately, we’ve decided to hold the release of this new vehicle to make some final quality of life changes and other polish improvements.

 

We want to get you out there carving up the slopes as soon as possible. However, our goal is to make sure that your experiences on the Driftboard are up to our expectations. We still have tons of quality of life and balance improvements on the way in v7.10.

Update: 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.
