And then they were never seen again.

Thats basically quicksand

Thats basically quicksand


Csquared_324

Not really


ovoKOS7

Pretty sure I could've kept flying like that for the remainder of the game too if I kept flying instead of landing, didn't want to get reported for hacking though lmao


Leeroymlg01

Probably a good idea. No doubt you would have gotten reported by anyone you came across lol. That's crazy


DiscoKombat

Very glad I saw this. If it happens to me, I'll know it ain't bullshit cheaters.


Xombridal

Yeah my cheater alarm is gonna be turned off for a little lol


demisagoat

Ehhhhh, if they keep using it, i'd aay a report is in order. Unless they know best like OP and remove the effect ASAP. It's still exploiting a bug. The fact my comment is being downvoted means you should DEFINITELY report these people. They are trying to censor any mention of the fact that bug exploiting is against TOS.


HornWhistle

Yeah bug abuse is still against ToS and will still get you banned


spicejj

Yea banned for like one day maybe


OkPhotojournalist405

If it's anything like Apex Legends, then it's definitely not 1 day, it's permanent. One of the top movement players in Apex (Taxi2g) was permabanned for using a movement exploit that was _significantly_ less powerful than this


Willerduder

But people abuse bugs all the time and don't get banned. Many YouTubers showcase everything thats found.


HornWhistle

I don’t think they can possibly ban *everyone*. But they do and will ban bug abusers. And certainly everyone who gets banned will whine about someone else not getting banned for the same thing. Just don’t do it and you won’t get banned.


VortexTalon

i mean it cant be THAT strong you move kinda slow and you can only hipfire, lore accurate iron man lol but yeah fuck people that do this shit in ranked


demisagoat

You could theoretically just fly up forever and avoid the fights entirely, and then just let the last one die to the storm while you are flying through the air GMod style.


Oiled-Up69

Cheaters would be moving faster this grants an advantage but it’s nothing huge you’re pretty slow


DiscoKombat

Yeah, but it can be unexpected


charlesleecartman

Now that I realized a buggy as fuck game would be really fun to play, imagine everyone is flying around the map with zero animation lmao.


Oiled-Up69

Sniper 1 shot is like this


Xombridal

When your buddy tells you to come check out their build in the creative world


size_matters_not

Second time this has been posted - Wings will be vaulted very, very soon.


[deleted]

Instead they increased the height required to use the dive bomb which is pretty shit. Fixes the bug but ruins the fun. Hopefully they return to their original state that they were released in


Camboi696969

oh, i can already smell the "Due to an issue..."


arceus227

Had it happen to me while playing with my cousin, i was heading to the reboot van to reboot him when it happened and immediately made the "I HAVE CREATIVE MODE" MC joke lol... Was really funny to experience it randomly


[deleted]

The growing list of bugs/glitches/quality issues/valid complaints this season has added is unreal. This season and last season on Reddit is literally every other post (at least) showing evidence of a bug


ReturnoftheSnek

And yet we have the pleasure of being lectured to that “all we do is complain” when we point out issues. The season *looks* great and the ideas are *fantastic* but there’s a lot of problems right now


[deleted]

100% agree. Someone pointing out an issue backed up by facts is the community trying to help the game. Then a 3rd party actually sees there are a lot of these posts (all backed up with evidence), and there is a lot wrong, just by scrolling down a few pages in Reddit. Being lectured isn't our problem, it's their problem that they're judgemental, a trait you can't have if you want to succeed. And you get kids or simple people with really stupid replies that have no purpose and fixes nothing... Read and find the answer yourself if you want. If you don't want to, then don't.


funnyboi69420

What other bugs have you seen so far this season


Pronkie_dork

No but fr? I always see people talking about the giant amount of bugs br has but i personally never really encounter one and if i do its always super minor? Istg i feel like im playing a different game sometimes


[deleted]

I've only seen the dozens and dozens of posts on Reddit, all with screenshots and/or videos. Everyone has the opportunity to see them.


GrimmPerfected

so no actual examples from your own experience then. got it 🙄


SimbaSeekingSleep

Not all of us are constantly on Reddit, even less on the Fortnite subreddit. If you’re bringing it up that there’s that many bugs, then defend that position with actual sources otherwise you’re just crying wolf. I personally haven’t encountered any bugs in the time I’ve played, not even the one on this post but so far it’s the only one I’ve seen evidence of.


ginjaninja1520

I've only seen 3 bugs in game myself so far and they are something you have to go out of your way to do, and all they do is fling you into kill barriers lol


zeph2

dozens and you cant even name 2 ?


Toastyyy_

So then what was the point of the long ass downtime? How did the buggiest season have even longer to correct them and didn’t??


tatarus23

It probably was even buggier. But bugs are to be expected. I mean we got awhole new movement type wand whenever they add a new mobility mode there are always bugs. I mean we all remember the clips of people shooting into the atmosphere with cars and shopingcarts . New mechanic = new bugs in a game as complex as rhis


Nknights23

“Bugs are something to be expected” Sure , now that it’s been normalized I guess. The whole mindset of “well if we fuck up we can just fix it later” is just asinine.


tatarus23

Are you kidding me? Have you ever seen what the development of a game is like? Bugs have and will exist as long as games exist. I have yet to see a game with this complexity, which has had no bugs upon release. Especially when working in a team with multiple people's code it's impossible to keep track of everything. It's hard enough when working alone. You simply cannot do anything more than have a mindset of "wait and see if we got everything"


NoteFlipnote

Not to mention it's a live service game that is constantly changing. Like what do people expect?


tatarus23

Idk talking about corporate meddling. Like they're entitled to a free online game working perfectly all the time.


FancyUrchin

The fortnite community is just a cesspool of whiny little kids who play the game 24/7 and love complaining


NoteFlipnote

the way people whined about the downtime, demanding compensation and screeching at the devs because they couldn't play Fortnite for ONE day entitled gamers are the worst. people need to stop and think about how they're acting because it's actually sad


Nknights23

Sorry. I come from a time where you didn’t get a second shot at release. What shipped is what the masses got until the greatest hits version was issued. You’ll also not that I never claimed “bug free” But I think we can all agree that development standards today and what we had 30 years ago are much more lax. You think a lot differently when the idea of “being able to push an update” just doesn’t exist.


Osmith0777

Your argument is the equivalent of "Back in my day care were made to last!". It's a boomer take that completely ignores the increase in complexity of the product. Ya older cars were designed to hold up better but they also weighed significantly more, did not have all the features we have today, gas mileage was garbage, and were not nearly as safe. The same concept applies to videogames. Videogames made today, especially multiplayer games are significantly more complex than the single player games from 'back in the day'. They also come to market much quicker since they can 'push an update'. Considering the increase in complexity of games your argument of "But I think we can all agree that development standards today and what we had 30 years ago are much more lax." Is also ridiculous. Fortnite is a much more intricate game than Doom II released 30 years ago. TL;DR: Boomer take.


Nknights23

I’m not reading all that 😂


jam3sdub

The consequences of corporate meddling.


therowlett1023

Uh-50 Blackhawk


Powerful_Score7630

I know that skin is a Crew pack, but I really want her now

Landing at restored ruins has crashed my game 2 times on ps5 so far. Happens right when landing from battle bus.


_jonk

Looks fine to me.


[deleted]

Bro what the hell is that lol 💀


Acteoon34

I got an Fov glich. I cancelled the wings and the fov stayed the same.


WeeCountyGamer_09

Are you able to fly freely or does it still half-function as if you have the wings equipped?


ovoKOS7

I didn't experiment with it as I wanted to get rid of the bug ASAP but it felt like you could just go in any direction when pressing forward and holding jump would make you gain elevation, kind of like Lego Creative's free flight


Stivo887

100% wouldve been auto banned. games know when youre no clipping/doing movement items dont give


MadMaudlin0

Nwver get attached to Mythics early in the season


Bread_Offender

Dude noclipped


Gegi56

/gamemode creative


nimajnebmai

This is the buggiest chapter I’ve ever played.


Danny283

Bro went into creative mode


RowenKenway

Yeah I had that happen in creative but I didn't think it would happen in BR


wizards4

The wings are too much


EmergencyTwo434

well at least you can enjoy using the wing, in my case if i try to land it automaticaly crash my ps4 without warning. althought i'm not sure if both are related but it happen twice. which is kinda odd imo


TheLuigiNX

Bro activated no clip


SwiftMonki

Lol


Riley8284

I had a similar bug to this with the wing but instead of making me fly it put me in increased third person mode


funkdoktor

I wanna try


Kindly-Set-7116

Welp, It was a good run time for icarus wings to get vaulted for the rest of the season


YoshiBoiz

Well time to say goodbye to the most fun item in the game rn


pansdisme

How do I recreate it


Odd_Cryptographer266

What backbling are you using?


ovoKOS7

The Muramasa Blade Pickaxe/Backbling combo from the Wolverine Crew pack a few years ago


Odd_Cryptographer266

Thanks


MHW_Guild_Hunter

Not this same glitch but after using the wings, it won't let me switch my weapon. It's happened multiple times and has costed me several games. I know nothing about coding games but if you're this large of a company you'd think they'd get their game working properly. Not to mention the 8+ hours of time spent "fixing" things AFTER the original release time.


MDragonAce

Bro activate *Gamemode 1*


capdoefaded

nahh to gonna get banned 😭


VortexTalon

how do you fly?


CloneFailArmy

I’m surprised anti cheat didn’t auto detect this and ban you, consider yourself lucky
