Are they randomly chosen? And will players from both modes receive this survey?
The sample is designed so that it is representative of our players. So not fully random. In terms of today's survey is is a Fortnite Battle Royale focused survey. However, we do have a Save the World survey in the design stages at the moment, which will hopefully be going out soon.
Apart from verification emails I don't seem to get any emails from Epic. (I didn't get a season summary.)
I must have turned these off at some point when I was signing up, but now I'd be interested in completing surveys, and getting season summaries. Is there any way to turn email communication back on?
I couldn't see anything in my account settings.
Good question. At the moment the best way to opt-in to getting emails from us is to:
First of all love epic and fortnite forget all the critics moaning about bugs, glitches, something not working etc. It's by far the best game of our my generation (27 I am). So much fun is had each and every day by millions of people.
I only have 1 question... where is my survey? 😀
In a shocking coincidence we are sending a survey today. Perhaps today is your day!
Will these effects still happen after Fortnitemares is over?
yes.
Hey folks!
I’m Ben, the User Experience Lead at Epic Games. My team helps to research the experience y’all are having when playing our games. The research takes many forms, but there are two methods I would like to talk about today specifically:
Surveys
We regularly send out surveys and we know that folks here are getting them because we see the posts here saying that they are fake and ways for people to steal your data! It is great that you are being cautious, keep that up. But, also keep an eye out for official communications from Epic, that is us and we want to hear from you.
We are also aware that our surveys are sometimes very long. That is because we really want to know what you think and we want honest answers. To be clear, we want the brutal truth. We also ask about a wide range of topics (often across multiple different surveys), some of which may be weird or not seem relevant, but in all cases your feedback is incredibly ...

I was going to make a thread for this small request but it seems appropriate to mention it here, would it be possible for reactive skins like Deadfire or the ghost portal that require kills/damage to not reset upon respawn in modes like disco and playground? As someone who plays those modes a lot, it can be mildly frustrating. I don't mind having to get 5 kills or 1000 damage in one life to turn them on, that adds a fun level of challenge, but having them reset when I get hit out of nowhere with a stray grenade ain't fun, haha.
I'll poke our engineers about it to see why it's working that way.
Question: Will the Muertos skins/accessories use the same system as their lights are also "reactive"?
Reactive is a broad term to describe that an item may do something within a match. This could be to progress through visual stages like Deadfire, change FX and shape like Rainbow Smash or Thunder Crash pickaxes, or make a noise when you get an elimination like the Clockworks back bling. The muertos items do their own thing, which is written in the description for the item (glow in the dark).
Here's how Deadfire's reactive component works:
-Stage 1 (Default look): Start of match
-Stage 2 (Clothing and hair color change): Occurs when you deal 400 damage to opponents/Cube Monsters OR when 40 players remain in the match (whichever comes first).
-Stage 3 (Green flames): Occurs when you deal 1,000 damage to opponents/Cube Monsters OR when 10 players remain in the match (whichever comes first).
These same rules & thresholds apply to the Pickaxe and Back Bling as well.
Basically, everyone can transform to the final stage of these items by surviving in the match (regardless of your playstyle), however you can transform quicker by engaging with cube monsters or other players earlier in the match.
I hope so, otherwise there's a bug...

Would you care to elaborate why they’re known as “OGS”?
Online Game Services
OGS is simply a nod to a team in the Seattle offices :-).
My favorite glider and only glider I bought but I stopped using it because it blew my ear drums out. Makes me really sad because I dropped 1500 vbuckS on a glider I can't even use because the sound is so loud. Should've just refunded it because they aren't going to fix it I doubt.
Just checked in a volume reduction for an upcoming patch.
Hi all,
We are aware of an issue that occurred early Season 6 where purchases returned an error on PS4. These orders were fulfilled later in the day, leading to some multiple charges. We are currently investigating these cases.
For a short period immediately following Season 6 launch, our PS4 purchasing system returned errors for some players. All purchases including those with errors were fulfilled after the issue was resolved. We are investigating cases where players unintentionally made multiple purchases during this period.
External link →Due to the influx of players trying to compete in our Alpha Tournament, we encountered a shortage of Battle Buses! Our teams are aware of this issue and we are monitoring the situation closely.
External link →The Battle Bus is test driving an engine upgrade and now travels 25% faster while flying.
Remember, always buckle up and thank your driver!

External link →Thanks everyone for helping us crank on this new system! Lots of info for us to look through from today and we're actively tackling a number of these issues stated here.
We're investigating issues with matchmaking in our Alpha Tournament that's impacting our EU regions. We'll update when we have more info.
EDIT: We're aware of an issue with tournament points not being updated correctly. We're investigating the issue and will update when we know more.
External link →Right, but these time windows are multiple days correct? If it is cumulative during those dates, it just tests who can play the most over five days. If the point system works differently please correct me. Is there a penalty for bad performances?
Each event is a clean slate. It's not cumulative over those dates.
If you can't play one day, choose an event on another date.
