If you can provide a video that is on Season 9 along with a screenshot of your custom hud that would be great. Also remember to report it in game under feedback and let me know your IGN so we can find your report.

Hey there, I'll be reaching out to you in your messages. It would be great to get your logs!

Thanks for pointing those out, will take a look at fixing them tomorrow.

I never said I don't want building in the game. Ground game has building and makes you have to plan your building more, and manage your mats differently, rather than building a sky scraper when you get shot at. I like this game and I enjoy playing it and will probably keep playing it regardless.

I don’t think we will bring back GG, it didn’t get much traction. But we have some other LTM ideas revolving around limited mat use that we’ll put out to see what you guys think in the next couple months.

What do they mean by they would have to go through the hassle and change the names?

Sorry, was just making a dumb joke... they are “limited time” modes so if we kept them on they’d no longer be limited time and we’d have to call them something else. I was probably tired when I said that. Carry on...

Its my favorite game mode and epic has made a point of keeping a permanent respawn mode in the game for players who like them at most if not all times.

If 50v50 comes back you either add a permanent respawn to it or it goes into the other LTM slot and team tumble stays.

Team Rumble was created because 50v50 with respawning won’t run well mid to late game. It’s likely we will bring fifties around again from time to time, but the large team respawn modes are much more popular.

We slipped up on the Slippery Wrap. The wrap does not animate. The rarity will be changed to uncommon and the price will be reduced to 300 V-Bucks in the future. We will be refunding the difference to anyone who purchased it.

Just had a glance over, they appear to have not mentioned it @ all. The main two things to take away from this IMO

  1. Epic Games did the right thing reverting this quickly. It was providing an over-the-top advantage to players with lower ping, which already provides inherit advantages.

  2. (I can not stress this enough) Epic Games should STOP LEAVING CHANGES OUT OF THE PATCH NOTES.

This is what, two weeks after the dev post about how they want to be more transparent and open about the changes they're planning for live. Yet they do this all the time. Change the way building works, and mention nothing. Nobody cares if they don't announce map changes, let people find out in game, why not? When you're screwing with building, tell us. Nobody knows wtf is going on with game mechanics in this game and it's because Epic isn't transparent, more like their windows are triple-layered with black paint.

We included that note in the patch notes at first and we took it out once we made the change today.
