Fortnite’s Playground Mode Returns
After a disaster of a launch, Fortnite’s Playground Mode has made it’s return after it’s initial debut in patch v4.5, which only lasted a couple of hours before Epic Games pulled the plug.
According to a Reddit post from JShredz, who is a member of Epic’s Live Operations team, issues arose from the sheer volume of people who wanted to get into the Playground.
“When you make matches for every 1-4 people, it requires between 25x and 100x as many matches as normal per 100 people depending on their party size,” JShredz wrote in the post.
“There is a very good chance based on the data I saw that matchmaker was creating online game lobbies faster than any game in history has ever done. We’ve got world-class engineers, but even we are sometimes blown away by how popular this game is.”
JShredz went on to explain that there is no issue at all with server availability and that the problem was based on how fast the system was able to create the matches themselves, assuring gamers that the issues has been fixed.
Rockstar Games officially announced last week that Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition will make it’s way to Playstation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Playstation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC, iOS, and Android in the first half of 2022.
Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition includes Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas with “across-the-board upgrades, including graphical improvements and modern gameplay enhancements, while still maintaining the classic look and feel of the originals.”
The existing versions of Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas will be removed from digital storefronts starting this week.
EA and Respawn have announced that the server issues that have plagued Apex Legends recently may not be fixed until a brand new patch is rolled out and implemented later this week, on September 22nd.
“Despite improvements today, we’re still seeing roughly three times the normal rate of disconnect errors in @PlayApex, and a full return to normal may take until our next planned patch on Sept 22,” Respawn wrote on Twitter. “We’ll extend the current ranked split by one week—that update will go live Monday.”
Issues arose after the latest big update that introduced the Evolution event and also added some big changes to Rampart.
Fortnite’s Chapter 2 Season 7 Grand Finale is creeping up on the horizon, and Epic Games will be launching the finale event next week on September 12th where the fate of the island will be “in your hands”.
Operation: Sky Fire marks the conclusion of the chapter, and is a fee on-time event. If you want to take part in the experience, make sure that you carve out the time, as replays will not be available for the event.
