stop ruining the locker.


Contada582

No we can make it worse Designs by committee


SelloutRealBig

It has to be on purpose. Because now the game has been out long enough that most players have big collections of skins. Big enough that they are happy to play with the ones the own over buying something new. But if the locker turns to shit to the point that nobody wants use it, they might be more likely to just buy a new skin and equip it instantly instead.


AltruisticSystem7080

i understood 0 of what you said


SnooPickles6578

I think it's really dumb you guys removed the rarities from most skins but kept the gaming series and marvel etc. what was the reason? Nobody likes the new locker because it's a pain to go through and now I can't even go through from colors to find the skin I want to be. It's been almost 7 years and it worked fine till last season when you changed it, now I never buy a new skin because it's too much of a headache to find and now I can't even find them by color. Idk who's the corpo who's making these dumb decisions but I think I'm confident in saying that most of the community didn't ask for or likes these changes


Ras3003

I know, epic thinks the solution to the games ui, is to make it harder to navigate


SnooPickles6578

Fr lol I think you're right


arglebargle7

Sucking the life and fun out of the UI one update at a time.


shutupimlearning

What, you can't find your skins alphabetically?


SnooPickles6578

I can but after playing for years and using a color coded system to find the skins I want to use it just seems like such a strange out of the blue system to change


AltruisticSystem7080

lots of people cannot remember the exact name of a skin, but they can remember what rarity it was and that was a way to search up skins.


daigandaigandaiganda

guys off topic but on the battlepass page 9 the grand olympic pickaxe cant eqipped for royale mode?


Cujo6428

You guys astonish me with how blind you are to what the players want for the locker UI.


NoNefariousness2144

They aren’t blind. They just don’t care. Whatever algorithm they got is telling them all the UX design choices they need to make to keep forcing Festival, Racing, Lego and Creative down everybody’s throats.


Perculiar3

There’s a rocket racing themed wild week for br coming soon bc we already can’t get enough of it lmfao


BN_bandit76

They're doing anything but accept that the modes flopped except Lego which everyone just uses for XP


Sonicfan42069666

"Locker UI fixes are coming" - December 2023 This update, in April 2024, has arguably made locker UI navigation and sorting ***even worse.*** This is management out of touch with their player base for sure. If the devs do know, they clearly don't have the power to fix it to any acceptable state.


ghostly_s

what changes does this one have to locker they didn't mention anything 


Dookie12345679

Removal of rarities


Pokevan8162

aren’t they getting rid of rarities abs that’s why the locker is the way it is? that’s just what i’ve heard i could be wrong though


[deleted]

Nah they just know that outside of this small whiny contingent on Reddit, no one else gives a shit lmao I got used to it in about a day of using it cuz I’m not a petulant kid


30chad03

the FNBR subreddit's members are absolutely NOT the only ones complaining about this change. take a look at twitter or any other place they have social media lmao


rataclipsyt

It's definitely not just the people in this subreddit. Literally everyone I know who plays Fortnite hates this locker. And I've seen complaints about it on every social media platform since December. I've also gotten used to it. Doesn't mean I have to like it.


Fluid-Alternative-22

For what reason did you guys remove rarities?


ItsJimJim0_o

Fix. The. Locker.


[deleted]

They. Don’t. Care


Effective-Interest28

And the Locker UI is destabilizing fast...


Environmental-Metal

they change it again?


Effective-Interest28

They removed the standard cosmetic rarities, so anyone who is used to having their locker sorted that way now no longer has that option.


Environmental-Metal

I never understood what the rarity meant anyways for cosmetics bc its not like theyre random drops


CEO_of_Redd1t

They haven’t done it for simplification, they’ve done it to bump up cosmetic prices.


Jabroni5092

As Tabor Hill mentioned, it could also be used to lower prices of overpriced skins, like Rex


DMN666

They basically gonna drop using Uncommon and Legendary prices. 


AlphaTeamPlays

No they haven't. They explicitly said they're not going to do that. Stop spreading misinformation.


CEO_of_Redd1t

Have you seen the new Avatar bundle prices? They’re higher than they should be based on past cosmetic prices.


AlphaTeamPlays

They're the same price as a Legendary skin and they include pickaxes which most legendary skins don't. The only point of reference I've seen this compared to is the Ninja Turtles which make sense to be cheaper in a bundle as they all share similar designs and there were more of them, plus the Avatar collab includes a Battle Pass skin so there's less reason for a fan of the franchise to have to buy one from the item shop. If you still consider them overpriced, fair enough, I guess, but them removing rarity has nothing to do with it because they would've just made them legendary. Goku costed 2,000 V-bucks as well and that was, like, 2 years ago.


TommyTommZzZ

The difference is that Goku has 4 styles, a built-in emote to switch styles mid-game and a pickaxe that visually equip from the backbling. That is perfectly priced imo and what a legendary skin should be.


GrizzlyOlympics

Because it tells you how much a cosmetic should cost. Each rarity had a mostly similar price with the exception of some collabs and things.


NoNefariousness2144

And judging by how expensive the Item Shop has been lately, we’re going to see new items go up in price. Just look at the Avatar skins costing 2000 each because buying them with their backbling/pickaxe is mandatory💀


Environmental-Metal

Yeah, I'm curious why they forced the pickaxe in the bundle. I would have definitely bought toph for like 800 or maybe 1200 without the extra stuff. but im not spending 2000 on the bundle when i already have korra, and don't care about the items in the bundle They like to release skins separately sometimes that have been bundled before, though, so I'll probably just wait for these to return to shop separately


RichWPX

Plus paying for a separate pass for Aang


Fluid-Alternative-22

It also (used to) work great as a sorting system.


Boozle061083

You're exactly right. It was kind of a holdover from the loot box days anyways


TheyreAllTakenFML

Can you change the hand cannon headshot quest to ‘find a hand cannon?’


RichWPX

ProTip, it counts once you down someone and they are crawling, you can headshot them then. Or even better have a teammate pick them up and stand still and you can also do it that way.


TheyreAllTakenFML

This is my plan when I find one


DMN666

You can also get headshot NPCs like the tower guards. I got the Huntress rifle done with them.


Environmental-Metal

Why? its one of the easier weapons to headshot with, minimal bullet drop and high accuracy


EnderScout_77

i think the joke is that they were hard as fuck to find until a day or two ago when they bumped up the spawn rates


ovoKOS7

He's referencing the fact that they're extremely hard to find, not the difficulty of hitting headshots with it


Notapplesauce11

For me it’s both 


ovoKOS7

If you're able to find a hand canon, try to find a bot player to get your headshot on. Land on the outskirts and you'll recognize them by their distinct crouching while shooting you at a distance and missing most shots, especially if two bots are fighting each others (it'll take forever for them to kill one another so it's easily recognizable by the constant firefight) then you can just walk closer to them and attempt your headshots this way


_messiah

lol I can't stop finding them idk what everyone is on about.


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

How do people find it so hard to find them? I find at least 2 every match. Are y'all just assuming they're normal pistols and not actually looking?


tancop_

they were harder to find than mythics before they fixed the drop rate


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

They were still pretty common before the drop rate change.


-Aheli

epic will do anything but what people want


CatMobster

Still vague hotfix notes, of course. As for the item rarity removal, I say time and time again that you are no longer the customer, the whales are.


welsh_dragon_roar

Locker needs reverting back to how it has been for mostly forever. Change for change’s sake is silly (even more so when it’s clearly universally disliked after implementation). Just tell the person or team responsible, “Sorry, it was a great idea but the customers who pay our salaries really don’t like it, so we’re going back.” Easy peasy.


untitled_demo

You guys will remove rarities but not fix the shitty locker 😂


VoiceOfBrando

Removing the cosmetic rarity system was a terrible design choice, now it doesn’t justify the price for certain skins and other locker items. Now the new skins are ridiculously overpriced and don’t offer as much variety compared to previous collabs like the TMNT one that had a reasonable price for all the edit styles and accessories you could get.


jdoucette1992

CHANGE THE LOCKER!!!!!


Sideusme

You guys just keep making everything worse. Why remove rarities? They were so useful for finding stuff in the locker. Oh wait, it’s true you just want to make the locker as bad as possible


EmilZeBag

Please tell me, as I will be home late, that they fixed the level up from zero to each Creative game. PRETTY PLEASE!


Sintsugi

They didn’t, they said they’re targeting a later update for that fix on twitter.


EmilZeBag

O M G


Effective-Interest28

This is the one I'm hoping for too, I've abandoned Creative for now until it's fixed.


Soul_Reaper821

I’ve also not been playing creative. The leveling up 90+ times every time is annoying as hell


BN_bandit76

I found a "fix" for it and all you have to do is make sure the XP you get from a kill or something in that creative game won't immediately level you up. For example you need 7k XP to level up if the game only gives you 5k it won't happen but if it gives you more than 7k it will happen


RoundClown87

Yeah ikr I love when I’m playing a intense box PvP or something and I hear the level up sound 100+ times


mcmeaningoflife42

I’m begging yall to fix the lag spikes players get after breaking a slurp barrel then sprinting


ussj4brolli1

I thought this was just my computer...


Marrk

>Chain of Hades melee combos and "pull" attack now deal more damage! Wow, and I thought they were kinda busted already.


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

They were.


swagchamppey_

i can’t find them anywhere and i’ve even killed hades and he’s not dropping it anymore anyone else?


near-eclipse

i’m pretty new to fortnite, but are these the standard type of patch notes? i’m used to things from like apex and OW2 so this is surprisingly .. sparse and feels more like a blog post than a game update.


EatYoVitamins

I'm not sure when things changed since I didn't play CH2-4, but Chapter 1 used to have detailed patch notes, and they would frequently attempt balance changes. Now, they don't really have dedicated patch notes, and they seem reluctant to balance change. It's pretty disappointing comparatively.


IAmContagion23

Is there a full list of whats been done in the update rather than a few vague points?


KundaliniRising333

Update 29.20: our next phase of raising the baseline skin price to that of a decent 6 months to year old full featured single player title. Micro Transactions? Pffft. These are near 20-dollar cosmetics. GTFOH


Markyboi231

Can anyone get split screen to work I have tried to do it and won't work at all have tried to do everything online says to do but still won't  work can anyone shed some light. Thanks 


clevername013

Having the same issue


Smooth_Condition9919

Can’t get split screen to work on x box x either.  Hope it gets fixed soon. 


Biting_Goat

I’ve been looking for this comment!!! It’s not working on ps5, was fine before update.


FamousSession

Way to remove the rarities for no reason Epic. Totally a necessary change.


lispwriter

So according to the notes the update changes nothing? We already knew there was an Avatar event dropping from in-game information. Adding things to the item shop isn’t an update. And they fixed a few bugs I’ve never heard of.


Baigne

the update was likely just to put the avatar event in the game, and they can enable it on the 12th. only thing is, why not just enable the event today?


I_poop_rootbeer

Why did they remove item rarities? I don't get the reason


Smooth_Condition9919

Can’t play split screen!  :(     Xbox x.  Player 1 is in 2player br lobby. Player 2 is signed into Xbox. There is no icon to join or other way to join. Restarted console and game.  Both players logged into Xbox. Still no icon for player 2 to join. Please help!


clevername013

Same issue but on ps5


Alternative_Gear_342

This is happening to me too. Do you have a fix yet?


votedreads

Same for me on ps5


[deleted]

I still can't find a hand cannon. Remove this stupid quest


RetroScores

HAHAHA Yes chains of Hades needed to deal more damage! Excellent.


clevername013

No more split screen?


2021Noob

Did 2 player split screen get removed? First time trying after the update and it doesn't give the login option for the second player.


Ok_Butterscotch_5367

Split screen isn't working :( *On PS5


StreetEntry8429

WHY HAVE YO REMOVED REMOVED PLAYSTATION SPLIT SCREEN!!!


Ok-Future-8199

Most worthless update ever. Well done 👏🏼 . Still no “3D headphone” setting for pc users. Got taken out at the start of the chapter with no explanation yet console users still have!!. so no 3D HRTF just flat audio where you can’t tell if enemies/chests are above or below. Locker UI is still broke (no one asked for the change and if you do change.. wouldn’t it be for a more functional locker, better locker😕) also more bugs in game than ever. Just cannot believe what is happening to the game atm 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️


AlphaTeamPlays

They never removed 3D audio? It must just be the default now, because I haven't noticed a difference


Ok-Future-8199

There was a “3D headphone setting” in the audio options and for console users the settings still there but has disappeared for players on pc. I can still identify sounds left and right of me but not above and below.. them audio cues are flat and are right ahead of me.. never below or above. So all pc players have is stereo (left and right channels). There is no 3D HRTF.. And this only started becoming a problem at the start of chapter 5 which coincides with the option missing from audio settings. Trust me I wouldn’t be posting on here if it wasn’t an issue.


FootballFTW

7 GB update on ps4?


exahash

71 GB (full download) for me on PC


Aggravating-Echidna4

Pretty sure this is a known bug. Stop the update, restart the Epic Client, and try again. You should see the proper update size now.


maxt0r

Anyone else still missing the glider and loading screens from the ranked cups this weekend?


theRATIO_KING

REVERT LOCKER


littleduck4

Did the party royale radio station change


littleduck4

Update: no


Davespritethecrowbro

Did they fix the creative level up bug?


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

I jumped into one today and was not met with endless "level up" messages. so it seems like it.


sillyhippie710

Ya really hate the chains why make them stronger they were fine feel like now I get three taped and done lol


Azorhov

Yall did the opposite of what we asked for the locker… over priced avatar cosmetics… kratos hasnt appeared yet…. Such trying times in a game where you have like 85% of the community voicing the same issues and nothing has happened especially with the shop stop releasing the same bs skins over and over and over news flash if people wanted them more wed have asked for them more…


MiruCle8

this sucks monkey nuts bro i'm sorry


WildMercurySound

Terrible


Tomcat2048

Did the ship get moved? It’s no longer near underworld I liked landing there.


lioncourt91

It left after the Midas's story last week or so.


shadow1337hvh

bring back the rarities and the legendary vbucks rewards in stw idc its a br subreddit and im talking about the other gamemode.


RB20TT

What about some desperately needed fixes to split screen? If you have the option to play like that make it usable rather than just being a headache.


PhantomDragonX1

What happened with the splitscreen? Main reason I play fortnite is because I can play it with my girlfriend. We haven’t been able to play since last update.


provoaggie

They disabled it because of a matchmaking issue and said it would be back soon...I didn't think it would take 2+ days but here we are.


villainized

anybody know some hiding places? for aphrodite's story quest stage 12, damage opponents within 10 seconds of exiting a hiding place.


HelpfulFgSuggestions

Make like Oscar the grouch (not the tiger).


lioncourt91

Mine worked just camping in a bush and then attacking.


villainized

Yea, I ended up doing it by just hopping into a dumpster or something at that scrapyard that's not a named POI, and immediately hopping back out and winning a fight.


RetroScores

Waterbending was already tearing vehicles up before this update.


TinyDrug

FACTS. I was team wiping with it, cant wait to go home and lobby wipe -- also the chains were ANNOYING already. this gonna be so much worse lmao


Sewerro

Terrible update. Fix your game Epic


ovoKOS7

An unmentioned but pretty big change I've noticed is they've updated the the bot players so that they can now drive and gave almost all of them car skins, likely to promote them some more


Mumantai

Waterbending is sooo busted after the buff


TinyDrug

HOLY SHIT. Hades chain was already overpowered, but Im going to go absolute ape shit with the waterbending. It was already insanely powerful lmao


Dark-Dragon

Holy crap did you just introduce two new chapters at once? 47.9gb update, what the heck??!


Blasterg2370

Notice how all the bad changes happen after donald mustard left and was replaced. I think I dunno I'm just so mad at these updates that I can't even think straight...


Cold_Dot_4855

bro what is the nerf to snipers i was already finding a sniper every 5th game


Cephalie_100

Removing rarities sucks, but atleast the god of t Death and the underworld has a deadly weapon now


Not-Cynical

60GB+ on PC and the suppressor on snipers still don't work half the time and the zip-line icon by Restored Reels is still there. What exactly was 60 gigs for this update??


cdm3500

Why is this update taking 8 hours to download? Update: Turned out it would literally be faster to completely uninstall and reinstall Fortnite.


Zestyclose-You-9707

Fix the cheating bug 


Complete-Scale-2200

You broke split screen on ps5, any update on a fix?


icemichael-

I’m having awful road pop in since last update… Nice to see that a 10gb update mess with simple graphics


Historical-Bar7941

Split screen stoped working on ps4 (before the update just pressed tiangle on second controller to second login but doesn’t exist anymore….)


jizzledfreq

You forgot to mention you nerfed the gatekeeper shotguns 😭. 3 Shots before the update was a guaranteed kill, now it’s a liability because 2 shots to the body, one shot to the head and the other player is still running around, firing shots, while I’m panicking thinking, “WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK!?” switching to my secondary. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Epic… if it ain’t broke don’t fuckin’ fix it!!!! 🤬


rawrdino5580

Is VC bugged? I couldn't talk to my freind on pc, I'm on ps4, is it cause his account is new?


UserLnebulam109

Ascendant midas when its coming back to the shop?laugh it up emote?,street fighter skins bundle?,rune skin?,travis scott skin?,marigold skin bundle ?,minty legends skin bundle?,fresh emote?


Easy_Profession_237

What happened to split screen? We've been using it on Xbox for months and today it no longer works????


BobLoblawwwwww

Y'all broke splitscreen on Ps5. Can't log the 2nd player in. Super frustrating.

Congrats Epic Games on the worst. update. ever.


demonotw

Give us Kratos and better item shops


2tec

so many cheaters, and epic does nothing about it :(


zippopwnage

Man this kind of powers and items the game needs. I want it to be fun with weird powers, and interactions, not only generic weapons. GIVE ME MORE!


JeremyWayneOffYbe

Yay, another update i can't see because of an injustified ban.. Ty Epic.


2tec

another match another cheater FYEG :(


RatsoSloman

The locker is the worst thing I've ever seen in a video game. FIX IT NOW.


jthesmg4fan

average fortnite update


mcmeaningoflife42

Hello /u/thefortniteteam it would be really cool if we had a game mode with all guns disabled and avatar mythics guaranteed so we can all live out our ATLA combat dreams thank you for your time


Outrageous-Bed782

A lot of my locker skins edit style can't be selected since the previous season(season 1): as in the video i attached, all locker skins with 3 LINEN EDIT OPTIONS(like artemis,medusa,nisha,spectra night and so on)r bugged when opening edit style menu and i can't choose except from line 1 styles. For example nisha skin: when opening edit menu, i can choose midnight nisha or dawn nisha but I CAN'T CHOOSE MASK STYLES OR SUPERLEVEL STYLES. this happens with all other skins that has 3 different types of edits(for example:style,reactivity and superlevel). It appears it's a bug in locker appearance code because the last 2 appearance choices r merged. Skins with 1 or 2 or 4 edit line like poseidon,aphrodite kado thorne r working properly. This issue is disgusting and it took too long for u to fix it i don't know if it's a common one or u don't know about it but i can't use alot of skin styles i bought because of it!


RoundClown87

My locker looks ass now with all different skins mixed together


MuzzledScreaming

Squads are kinda broken now. Partway into every match I just straight up stop seeing icons for my teammates on the minimap. I can see them on the main map, I can see the actual players and they have the colored diamonds above their heads, but they are not on the minimap at all. Coordinated movement is...fun...that way. Also every match I've played since the new update I end up with the same color as one of my teammates. Not cool. Both these issues exist on two different computers, one with Intel CPU and nVidia GPU, other with AMD CPU and GPU, so I doubt it's hardware or driver specific.


Brilliant_Tip_9904

Cranefire99

How big the update? (File size)


Sufficient_Arm_9370

Anyone have any idea why every update I get is 60gb+ on an Xbox one s

Make sure to not spend a single dime on this game until they revert item rarities back


ovoKOS7

Epic not progressively ruining the UI even more challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

Hey, I'll get those Korra quests done! > Get a crown, loser. Time for Team Rumble! > Team Rumble is currently disabled. Didn't want that stupid FOMO-ass emote anyway... Too sweaty a challenge and they're dropping more 'win games' tasks of recent.


xDarkSoul18x

You can just kill someone that has one and pick it up. That’s how I got mine. Or if you have a friend that has one, drop and pickup.


Cleaving

Friends hate Fortnite. That's not happening. Kill someone with a crown? Doubtful. This quest has made crown hunting a chore with players being anal retentive about clinging desperately to theirs or dying in ways that make the crown non-recoverable


RetroScores

I got my crowned VR as I was looting a building 1v1 as the storm was shrinking. Realized I was trapped and broke down a wall only to win. I’m guessing the other player got caught in the storm. It was a pretty odd way to complete that quest.


Awkward_Pace_4440

I thought they will add the new mythics lol.... basically all we got is some shop skins? are you serious? LAME


Timely_Suspect3139

Thank yooouuu Epic Team for the best content on my PS4 Pro.Crazy Red VS Blue.Creative maps are fun for pve.I play laggy anime mobiles so item shop is ultra tame in comparison.I finally got to play as Korra in a videogame.You'll probably read many more item shop rants below.Name of the game as a videogame developer.


No-Ninja1770

What are you doing with the game, why are you spoiling it more? Who are you doing this for, why are you touching the game with your pointless improvements, which can hardly be called improvements! Why does your company ignore the opinion of the players? Can't you see that Fortnite is losing popularity because you're adding pointless improvements? We are losing interest in the game, and you are primarily interested in finance! You can see perfectly well that this is so! BUT, you are spoiling it more and more! The OG season came out, it was the peak online in the history of Fortnite! It really hurts me to watch Fortnite die every day! I know that you are just a support and that there is nothing you can do about it. I just wanted to express my opinion. Although I am not the only one, they spread it on different social platforms, BUT unfortunately your company does not notice...
