Storm Shield Reset Issue

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 12:20 PM PDT

We're aware that some player's Storm Shields have been reset.

We are currently investigating the issue and will update this post once we have more information.

UPDATE (10pm ET): We've identified the root cause of the issue with Storm Shields and the impact on players. There is no way for us to restore player's Storm Shields, however, we are putting together some supplies to help those affected build bases bigger and stronger than before! Thank you for your patience.

EPIC Please Help my Case #2321284 someone hacked my account

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 08:28 PM PDT

Hey Epic, Can we get a separate St.Patricks day llama

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 12:17 AM PDT

This event has the longest ticket grind compared to every other event, as well as the most packed llama. The chances of getting the new Hero's (anything you want) and survivor are slim at this point.

Save the World Standard Edition

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 12:19 AM PDT

Support the Ultimate Edition players. Improve their Nocturno so it's better than the ones Epic mistakenly gave away to some players. Its only right.

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 07:21 AM PDT

While the information is fresh please show your support to our ultimate edition players. Its only right that the ones who actually paid the $250 get a better weapon out of the situation over the ones that you admitted was a mistake. Why should the ones who didn't pay have a better weapon than the ones who did.

I offer 3 suggestions any one will do:

  • Easiest solution is delete the Nocturnos given away. I don't think Epic would do this since they haven't yet.

  • Buff the Ultimate Edition Nocturno with better perks.

  • Give them 3 Nocturno one with a diffferent element and keep the perks the same.

All I'm requesting is that you do the right thing. Thank you for any support this post receives.

Twine peaks here I come

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 07:01 PM PDT

I would trade all my schematics to have this game finished.

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 05:45 AM PDT

Seriously. I finished Plankerton last night and the cold feeling that befell me as Ray basically said "yeah, this shit ain't finished, see you later" was quite the harsh experience.

C'mon now Epic. Look, I love this game, just as many others do. It's a shame you don't seem to feel the same.

Canny Valley and Twine Peaks need to be finished, and I'm absolutely baffled that this isn't your primary concern. Don't give me that early access crap either, it's just a strange kind of lazy.

The events you've been putting out, all the little additions are great and everything but it does seem like you're just trying to distract at this point. If you're going to constantly push people towards buying llamas and dangling carrots in front of those you know you've got hooked then you could at least have the decency to FINISH YOUR DAMN GAME.

I'm sure we're all tired of you adding in things that no one asked for when half the game is still left in limbo. How are people meant to believe this isn't going the way of Paragon when all you ever say is... well, nothing. You've essentially said NOTHING about Canny and Twine, just vague dismissive gibberish that gives no idea as to whether you are actually doing anything about it or not. Hell, just give us the proper biomes at least!

I could go on but I don't really want to. I just want this game that I thoroughly bloody enjoy to be finished. Please, for the love of Ramirez, please finish the job. I don't know how much more Stonewood I can take.

Why is Fortnite so laggy recently?

I have been lagging a lot recently in Fortnite and sometimes it gets me killed. Am I the only one who is lagging so much?

Epic, Fix Your Customer Support, Please

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 12:46 AM PDT

The reason this sub is starting to get cluttered with "I was hacked" and "Epic help me" posts is because you guys have a customer support division that's seemingly nonexistent.

I assume that a lot of tickets are responded to and resolved in due time, but you should be able to understand that you're not doing a good enough job at keeping up with the queue if posting here has started to become a trend in order to get your attention on issues that should be handled in emails, or some reliable source of customer support.

Title goes double for the fact that every customer support thread's top comment is "go to the BR sub, you'll have more luck there." Pay attention to the game that people paid to play, instead of ignoring them as often as the posting here has us believe. I can't think of one good reason why some haven't gotten a single response in weeks or months, and some are able to get their issue looked into within hours of posting their issue on this sub. That is very, very bad.

Please Epic do not Reset my "friends" :D

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 05:33 AM PDT

I absolutely HATE that I have to resort to Reddit to get Epic's attention.

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 01:44 PM PDT

I contacted Epic a few weeks ago via email and still have not received a response. I bought the founder's pack on launch day and for some reason I don't seem to have it anymore on PC or Xbox. My Xbox and PC accounts refuse to link and if I look at my order history it clearly says that I purchased the founder's pack on 4/4/2016. I have the Order ID and everything and I just want to be able to play like I did at launch. I would really appreciate some help Epic.

Edit: My case ID is Case #2134289

Major Issue flying under the radar: Only 1 reload speed bonus is counted per weapon or trap

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 12:10 AM PDT

Recently while comparing traps and weapons I noticed some inconsistencies with what we thought were good rolls and what is actually happening. Before i used to be excited to see 2 reload speed bonises, that is until I realized that on every trap and weapon only the highest reload speed is avtually calculated into the weapon making many of the rolls useless on weapons and traps.

Any weapon or trap with more than 1 reload speed in the rolls is essentially wasting bonus slots which is unfair. Please Epic correct this issue by making multiple reloads be effective or re rollong the slots not being utilized.

Lost my Fortnite account with paypal linked, possibly hacked. Please upvote for visibility.

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 10:14 AM PDT

Please upvote for visibility. I lost access to the email on the account and I've been waiting for over a month for epic to respond to my email, and now I've lost my account with around $100 in skins. Please upvote for visibility. No matter what I do I can't get a reply from Epic. I've tried emailing every link I could find for Epic online and I've called their number just to be met with a machine.

The 4 simple steps to make defenders viable and fun.

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 06:24 PM PDT

Currently defenders are garbage, In 100 power team missions where we can place defenders we don't because they're a liability.

Here are 4 easy steps EPIC could take to actually make defenders usable.

  1. Make them unable to ignite propane. This is the big one and it's why in their current state defenders are a liability. There is a method in place to allow players to not ignite propane (removal of permissions in SSDs) so apply that same restriction to defenders.

  2. Make them immune to AoE effects or take 90% reduced damage. Defender standing on their pad sniping away, one gas lobber, the defender stands in the gas until it dies... This is just plain stupid if you can't be bothered improving their AI enough to make them walk out of gas/bees make them immune to it.

  3. Make defenders resurrect each other and players, defenders die a lot, wouldn't it be nice if one defender died and another one ran over to help out their friend? Or after getting 2 shot by a 130 lazer for ~320k damage it would sting a little less if your defender buddy came over to resurrect you.

  4. Add a bodyguard slot, defenders currently defend objects, atlases, vans, shelters... How about they defend players too. Add a bodyguard slot to the menu, have the player generate a defender zone around them and allow a defender slotted into the bodyguard slot to operate within that zone. It'd be really cool to have a defender bro jump on a hoverboard and zoom around a zone with you taking out encampments, they probably wouldn't be very useful but it'd just be nice.

Things Fortnite can take from Bloons Tower Defense

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 11:18 PM PDT

AI targetting.

Right now traps can take care of AoE while the soldiers do the single target damage.

Why do we never see ninjas do AoE while traps do single target? Lack of specific targetting.

In Bloons Tower Defense, you can make your traps hit either the first enemy (one closest to objective, sort of irrelevant for STW) or last enemy (also irrelevant), but the main thing is that they can focus the strongest enemy, or the weakest

How nice would it be to place ceiling zappers that only trigger on specific enemies, and not get wasted on a husk, or kept near the main objective and get propane tossed at it / too close for them to be stacked for high single target the way we stack aoe traps.

Defenders could use this system too. Make sniper/shotty defenders focus big baddies only or get the weakest.

It wouldnt make defenders useful since they get one shot all the time in twine, but itd be a good step into improving them like epic said they will!

Tl;Dr: add specific targetting for traps and defenders to target the weakest enemies or strongest.

We need a vanity slot for our heroes.

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 04:37 PM PDT

You know, how some other games have a slot you can fill on your character/item that allows them to take on the appearance of the slotted item while retaining the skills/stats of the base item they're slotted to.

For example if my Swordmaster Ken had a vanity slot I could put Wukong in there and it would apply the Wukong player model to the character, allowing me to use Ken's abilities while looking like the Wukong skin.

Maybe put some limits in place, so you have to level the slotted item to the same level as the hero you're slotting them to. Obviously there would be no statistical bonus, the second character would only serve as a "costume" for the other.

Maybe restrict it to the same class too, unless you're okay with having ninja constructors and constructing ninjas. But even at that the game tells you someone's class by their name, so it wouldn't be hard to figure out who was who.

As much as I like helping people on STW...every tip I suggest...gets nerfed...why do I feel like Epic has their eye on me?

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 01:30 AM PDT

I first noticed this when I explained how I used my Sentinel Hype Decoy / Plasma Pulse combo to easily eliminate enemies...then they nerfed the decoy..

Next I talked about how I love Support Spec Hawk's ability of War Cry...using another SS Hawk in support for faster reload... I used a RPG with increased reload speed to unload rockets as fast as I could load them with 0 durability loss...SS Hawk's Durability Warcry gets nerfed..

I inform people how to obtain Event gold easily during the winter events...basically booting up a low level Atlas 1 with a miniboss...once you load in, get 1 bluglo and start it up. Easily 100+ Event gold in 10 mins or less.

Finally now with me talking about the best approach with the current event: Doing low level missions with a partner...one person gathers 13 bluglo (12 for max difficulty, 1 to start an atlas 1 mission) while the other person runs around and activate the fireworks. Once the other person collects bluglo, both players run around and collect all the envelopes. Simple increase to max, and easily win the mission.

All of which have been nerfed completely...should I just keep my mouth shut from now on? :/ But I do enjoy helping players a lot :( really sucks that Epic has put me in this position to keep useful info to myself in fear that it may get nerfed.

Quick PSA: for those affected by daylight savings time, daily reset times have "changed".

Posted: 11 Mar 2018 04:09 PM PDT

Just a quick reminder, the daily resets are effectively postponed for an hour for those who do daylight savings time.
For EST, resets now happen at 8 PM.
For CST, it now happens at 7 PM, and so on for other time zones.
Things will stay this way until daylight savings time ends, then it will go back to the other times.

Let us control a Smasher to wipe out Storm shields...

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 07:48 AM PDT

How about letting us use a smasher to clean/wipe our bases if you not going to give us the option?

Otherwise, why not give the Constructor hero a bulldozer like the ability to let us wipe large portions and reclaim the mats?

SOMETHING cool could be done with this.

My account got hacked (=linked), the guy spent all my v-bucks and epic still hasn't replied after 5 days.

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 05:30 AM PDT

It was a wonderful sunny day when all of a sudden I get an email saying I linked my ps4 account (I don't own a ps4). I look to see that a random playstation user linked up with my 6k filled v-bucks account (ready to be spent on cool skins that come out in the future like rexy & wukong).

 

The email literally says:

You have successfully added PlayStation Network association to your Epic Games account. If you did not make this request, please contact us immediately.

 

So yeah, of course I inmediately sent an email saying I didn't link my account. It'd be cool if my hacker was somewhat smart and spent the v-bucks on cool skins but no, he spent it all on bloody tier skipping, the worst thing of all to spend it on. Because you take away my progression (which I enjoy very much, I love the quests (not the wailing woods one)). He literally didn't just take my v-bucks, he also deleted my progression in the game. After 5 days of getting kicked out of games because this guy is logging in, changing my emotes, banner, skins etc.. I still didn't get a reply whatsoever.

 

I spent a pretty big sum of money on the game because I knew I would keep buying small amounts of v-bucks anyways. But now to have it all spent on something like tier skips is just a huge blow. I kinda love epic because they made a great game and I adore the skins but this customer service is just lacking. I want to play the game again, it can't be that hard to unlink an account.

(ofc I changed my password to ultra virgin safety levels together with my email address and every safety measure required when you got hacked, still didn't help though so I'm in need of some epic help here (case nr: #2542025.)

 

tl;dr: I got hacked (ps4 acc linked), dude spent 6k v-bucks on tier skipping (rip the fun weeks of progression), and epic hasn't replied in 5 days. Customer service is lacking, I did my safety measures but I need some epic help here.

Can we update the banner links to no longer point to v3.1

Posted: 12 Mar 2018 07:19 AM PDT

It's been 4 days since the wonderful 3.2 patch and I know they've been hectic ones....but the reddit links in the banners at the top are still all pointing to the v3.1 patch and feedback...Stuff's hard enough to locate when you have to search twitter, Reddit and Epic Forums. Keeping these few links updated to the latest should be right at the top of your desire for better communication.
