Edit: I still believe that he (due to this incident) was the one responsible for nerfing traps from 125 to 75 and someone else re-buffed them to 150 later on when he wasn't looking. :P

Joel is my vote :)

To be nominated for this is a massive honor to me. I love interacting with all of you wonderful and passionate players.

 

I do also want to say while this is a huge deal to me, there are tons of massively talented and dedicated members of the Fortnite Team. I wanted to bring attention and credit to everyone involved. Because none of this would be able to happen without everyone on the team involved. That also includes YOU, the players.

 

Thank you, everyone, keep being amazing!

 

Much love,

MrPopoTFS

Update: Thanks to all of your help, including the steps and videos provided, we've been able to reproduce this issue internally and have started our investigations.

You can monitor the status of this issue on our Trello page.

Howdy!

We've seen players mentioning that occasionally they'll eliminate a player but they keep walking for a short period of time. We're investigating this on our end but could use your help too. We've created a Trello Card that has instructions on how you can do this.

Videos also help us a lot, so if this issue happens to you and you have a video, then please leave a link to the example in this post so we can look into that as well.

Thanks a bunch!

This is kind of cool. Them being able to do rolling deployments of patches without visible timeline means that they've gotten their backend deployment pipelines all set up. If they want to, they could start pushing updates this way and avoid those weekly release schedules

Not quite! This is an update to server code rather than client code, which means you don't have to download anything because we're just pushing new instructions to the servers that host matches.

Client patches are a bit different and actually change the software that you run on your device to play the game, which is why you download a patch on release days.

We're patching our servers to fix long hitches that caused simultaneous interrupted connections for all players in a match.

This will roll out over the next few hours.

Just to clarify: this update is totally invisible and will not affect any games in progress. The patch goes out to a new set of servers, and new matches will get the new server version. Matches running on the previous version will be unaffected, and we don't deprecate the old server version until there are no games left running on it.

Well, that shouldn't be happening. Thanks a bunch for providing this video as it helps us a lot. I've gone ahead and escalated this to our QA team.

Hey there!

I really appreciate the clip showing the issue but could you clearly list the exact steps needed to reproduce this issue? Including your platform and type of controller? Thanks a bunch!

Example: I play on [platform] and use a [brand] controller.

To reproduce this issue, do the following:

  • Step 1

  • Step 2

  • Step 3

Last second addition, we saw that some players were having a hard time with the Grenade Launcher challenge :)

Hey all,

We messed up with the store rollover and the Battle Pass 10-Tier pack should have been priced at 600 V-Bucks at 7PM on 11/26 rather than dropping from 900 V-Bucks this morning with the v6.31 update.

We’ll be granting the 300 V-Buck difference to anyone who purchased during this time period.
