This was resolved late last night. We deployed some new servers to correct this issue.

Thank you for your patience!

Thanks for the heads up. The team is looking into this now. Definitely seeing some issues on our end as well.

The sub mods should mark some posts for Epic to Reply.

There is no response from Epic even though this issue is voiced many times.

For as many Hero Superchargers as there have been.. it's definitely possible something could be broken. We're taking a look at this now and will make adjustments / fixes if something isn't working as intended.

Thanks for chiming in everyone! Some great advice being given here. This is correct, your SSD will be set back to the way it was before the wave was started.

Keep in mind this applies to both destroyed and placed walls and traps. Be mindful when placing things after you start the wave because it won't be there afterwards.

I found a few:

1. In And Outlander's Commander perk description is completely wrong. Instead of "Eliminating 6 enemies within 10 seconds of using Phase Shift grants 2 charge(s).", it should actually be "Eliminating 2 (or 8?) enemies within 10 seconds of using Phase Shift grants 1 charge(s)."
2. Only Kinetic Punch's Commander perk adds extra knockback, despite the description saying that the Support perk adds it too.
3. Plasma Overdrive (Miss Bunny Penny's Plasma Pulse Energy cost reduction) appears to have the ability to increase Plasma Pulse's rate of fire by 33% and reduce its spread, but I'm not sure if that's reflected in-game considering I have literally never used the perk.
4. Your Move Creep's Commander perk base damage may actually be 19 instead of 13.
5. Racking Up The Coal's Commander perk actually increase ROSIE damage by 16% per stack and not 12%. There also doesn't appear to be a max stack limit despite the perk description saying it's 30 kills.
6. Although it's not explicitly stated anyway, Goin Coconuts' Commander perk only increases its damage and not its healing (33% of max health on first bite, then 50% of max health over 30 seconds)
7. From The Depths appears to have a damage bonus of -56%, which results in a bonus of 0% considering it's a negative. Adds up, considering some people have noted it not working in the past.
8. Happy Holidays appears to actually reduce cooldowns by 33%, but the tooltip is explicitly set to read as 40%.
9. Command Presence actually snares enemies by 70% and not 30%.

u/Magyst some potentially bugged perks you might want to pass on to the team to confirm that they work properly

Edit: Happy Holidays just has some confusing bits to it. It does actually work as intended

Thanks for the tag on this.

u/Glory_To_Atom If this happens frequently to you, can you please send me client logs via discord since I see you are on PC? This will be super helpful for tracking down this issue. Here are some steps:

1. Launch your client
2. Experience the network error (close the client if it doesn't close)
3. Navigate to C:\Users\\AppData\Local\FortniteGame\Saved\Logs.
4. Grab the FortniteGame.txt file (it's time stamped for when your client closed)
5. Send it to me via Google Drive Link in DMs or Discord message ( Magyst#8046)
   

Also shoot me your in-game name via the DM as well. Would love to get the server logs from the session as well.

If you have to send a friend request to message, please let me know what the discord name is as well.

Important note: u/glory_to_atom is incorrect when he says it only happens in private matches. It most certainly does happen in public matches as well.

It happens to me often so I will try and send you some of my logs.

Please do.

I play another game as I have a friend on it (Gears 5 Horde) where the person running the game (here it would the be the StormShield owner) can kick anyone out of the game for any reason at any time.

It actually works really well. People that are not good team members get booted (and if bad enough banned from coming into their games). As far as the owners abusing it, while possible, that would be quickly self defeating as nobody wants to play with them and it leads to missions failing for them. So you do not see it.

Player 1: Give me your Guns.
Player 2: No!
Player 1: See ya
*Kicks player 2 from match*

We've definitely discussed the idea of giving players the ability to kick, or vote kick from matches. Ultimately, and with the state of how "trading" is done, it would definitely open up more toxic behavior.

I think the biggest thing we need to improve on is the current reporting system and how it actions players. This is something that I've re-raised and the team is actively working through some fixes and improvements.

By the way, Magyst.

The network loss error has been plaguing the game for long enough. It happens when playing in private matches. Causing the inevitable "Network loss error". But it doesn't happen in public matches.

But the case is different in Ventures, it happens on both public and private.

u/Magyst, This is not ghost boss material....

Definitely not...

Been locked out 9 days now! After the fix was discovered, I had contact with 3 different employees from PS over the weekend, and they sure won't get you taken care of..

My final response from them. I've read your message and understand that you still have trouble accessing to the ventures game mode and also that you already report the issue through our in game report feature. I really appreciate your patience and your help reporting the issue, currently we don't have official information regarding this issue, however thanks to your report our developers will track the issue to finds a solution as soon as possible.

Thanks for sending over the conversation ID. I'll have someone take a look.

Yep! They'll get you taken care of

Hi u/Magyst , I don't want to be impertinent, but I think one of the big problems is trading in public games, especially in stonewood and in plankerton (I'm doing the challenge, play with others and 95% of the time the players don't start the mission or help for being enclosed in wooden boxes level 1 for trading) , I am not against trading but I think there is a place for everything, it should be allowed in storm shields but not in public games, please activate the feature of Venturas "of not being able to drop any item" at least in stonewood and plankerton.

Regarding the problems that they are tracking to solve, I think that I will never tire of asking for this, please fix the survivor bonus, I hope to see this one day

I'm with you on this one! I definitely push on this one quite a bit. We've got a long list of QOL things we're working on. Survivor Bonuses is definitely a system we want re-visit, same with Expeditions.

Right now we're taking a look at bringing up some of the under performing Hero perks. I'll definitely keep that chat of Survivor Bonuses alive.

While it's nice that you're here, these exact words have been spoken over and over for the last 3+ years. Can we get any sort of guarantee that something will be done?

We've got a team digging in and discussing improvements as I type this.

Currently, I don't have a timeline as the team has been analyzing the system over the past few days.. but there's definitely some issues we're tracking to fix / improve on.

Hi, Commanders!

We're posting to let you know that we've just released a maintenance patch on all platforms. This patch is to address cosmetic issues and stability.

As part of this patch, the unfinished Style of the Tsuki Outfit has been removed. The completed Style will arrive in a future update.

Thank you.

XylicSTW

You should probably flair this as "Bug"

u/Magyst Grenade Launcher projectiles don't explode on impact as they should

Thanks for the tag. Shooting this over to the team now.

What about the other pickaxes that have been on the trello for a bit now, are they also being resolved in the near future?

Yep!
