Fortnite bugs “Taking longer than expected to fix"
Version 2.4.0 of Fortnite was due to be released yesterday, but that has been delayed to deal with continued problems.
“We hear your concerns regarding bugs that you are experiencing since V.2.3.0, especially those regarding building,” said Epic. “It’s taking us longer than expected to fix these issues and we’re working through some major ones. If we’re unable to fix them today the v2.4.0 release will be delayed. Once we have a better idea of when the patch will arrive we’ll update everyone.”
As a result, Epic is going to revert some of its older building UI and systems to speed building up in game when version 2.4.0 is eventually released. Players have been struggling with a bug whereby a different object is built to the one selected, among other issues.
“In order to help make building feel better we’ll be reverting to the building bar system that was present in V.2.2.0. We intend on finding a more permanent fix to make building and item selection feel more crisp in the future. We’ve also added some tools to help us better diagnose in-game issues when new bugs do arise.”
“Reverted building is planned to come with 2.4.0, and we’re working on a slightly longer-term improvement without some of the bugs we’ve seen people experiencing,” offered Epic.
“We know it’s been frustrating for our players, but it’s a tough nut to crack and we need a bit more time than we want to make you wait for the other great fixes, features, and content we’ve got lined up. We figured the best thing we could do would be to restore it to the state it was in with 2.2.0, and take another shot at improving the feel and responsiveness of building in the near future.”
Earlier this week Fortnite offered compensation to players affected by the latest problems, which come after a major update to the map which added new locations and biomes.

Craig2018Devil A free game that takes a while to update bugs, get over it. It's a pretty cool game, shame in terrible at it.
I mean... they make alot of money off this game from microtransactions for sure. They should put all their time into this game and get those fixed really fast. Shouldnt take THAT long. I am terrible at this game as well man!
With their current player base, it's going to take longer. Working out broken shit on servers of that magnitude is no easy feat.
True, I personally think it's the most played game at the moment on all consoles. There are obviously going to be a few issues that'll take longer than usual.

Austin Honestly glad I decided to start playing this game. Had it downloaded for over a month before I decided to play it
THE SAME THING MAN. I had this game for the longest time until I finally gave it a go with some friends. Turned out to be one of my favorite games. Although its probably one of the most frustrating games to the point where I put a hole in my wall, its a great game to play with friends and just have fun. Dont really see games like these nowadays.

I have stopped playing it because after a few games I get bored. I might have to start after bugs get fixed and these new updates come into place lol
TomShep This game is boring anyways.....
tbh Shep, i thought the same thing when i first starting playing but after playing with a few best buds I totally got right into it. Playing solo is probably one of the worst things to do while first starting out if thats what you did.
That is exactly what I did. Some of my friends have been wanting me to get on and play squads with them and i end up denying them because I think I will get bored. I might give it a try now since you say its all that with friends.
