Everything is currently in maintenance mode as we apply the fix. Once that finishes everyone will be able to connect. I wish I had a solid time frame for you. We are going to get you out there as soon as we can!

is this the reason why it didnt just count my win?

That is due to stats currently being disabled. We are still saving all your wins, we will just backfill them at a later date. :)

You've missed your friends, we know and are about to begin maintenance to address the issues we've been seeing today. There will be some downtime (begins at 2 AM ET) during this period while the update makes it way out to you patient players. Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks for clarifying that. I want it done now but didn't expect it to happen. Also can you please address MEDBOTs? I can not continue progressing because the MEDBOT missions can't be completed. There are at least 10 posts in the past few days on r/FORTnITE about it and all that was said was "We're looking into it" and that was 2 days ago.

Just want to clarify we are aware of that issue and are working towards a fix. :)

I completely understand you all wanting the update now, I want to see you out there having fun! There are however things we need to prepare before we push this fix and 2:00 AM ET is as soon as we can get this sorted out for everyone.

UPDATE: You are reunited! Players should once again be able to connect with their friends. We will be leaving notifications and stats off for the time being. Get out there and play with your friends!

We will update you once we enable notifications and stats(being backlogged).

UPDATE: You've missed your friends, we know and are about to begin maintenance to address the issues we've been seeing today. There will be some downtime (begins at 2:05 AM ET) during this period while the update makes it way out to you patient players. Thank you for your understanding.

We’ve been having problems with some of our services today. We’ve discovered a fix but it will require some downtime. We are scheduling this for 2:05 AM ET. We thank everyone for their patience today. We want you back out in the action!

Glad you caught it. This was one of the requests I made for the trailer and every review I kept asking for it.

Heya folks,

We’ve been teasing you about a new mode all week and the time has come. Starting right now you can hop into our first limited-time mode … 50v50.  Two teams battle it out in the most epic Battle Royale action yet. See for yourself in the action below.  
 

But for how long? Great question!

The 50v50 playlist is available from Dec. 8 to through Dec. 17, so make sure to grab your friends and jump into the battle for a limited time.

How does it work?
Just load up Battle Royale and select the 50v50 playlist. You can jump into the mode solo or with up to three friends. Once the Battle Bus gets flying, you’ll see your squad on the map and communicate like a normal squad/duo match. You’ll also see green markers on the map and above the heads of the remaining 50-player team. The circle closes in. Last team standing wins.

Are there any special rules? 
  • Friendly Fire Off (Bu...

Wasn't it supposed to be activated in Brazil right now?

Looking into this - I think we have an issue keeping Duos off in Brazil and we're working to resolve. Sorry :(

This should be fixed very shortly I believe and will update ASAP.

EDIT: This is resolved now. Sorry again for the delay here. Have fun!

Hey friends,

Sorry for lack of heads up on this, but final plans got solidified and executed late last night. We didn't want to announce this as incoming until we were 100% sure it all worked as expected. Basically, Duos should now be available in OCE, ASIA, and Brazil server regions during their respective "peak hours". Each region has a slightly different overall curve from peak to offpeak due to geo/timezones and such, so that total available time range might look a little bit different from region to region.

We will be keeping an eye on this and tweaking as needed. Ideally, we want to keep expanding the time range that Duos is available.

Here are the time ranges per region where duos should currently be available:

  • Oceania 12:00 AM - 7:30 AM EST // 5:00 AM - 12:30 PM UTC
  • Asia 3:00 AM - 1:00 PM EST // 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM UTC
  • Brazil 9:00 AM - 12:00 AM EST // 2:00 PM - 5:00 AM UTC

Thank...

Hey, question! Why doesn't the game properly support retina Macs? The game runs at 1x instead of 2x, so it's less than 1080p on my 15" MacBook Pro.

I honestly don't have the answer to that, sorry. I only commented on this particular post as I was the one who created the smoke bomb originally.
