Details On New Fortnite Hotfix

Epic Games is looking to turn the page on what has been a challenging week, highlighted by the frustrating server outages that gamers experienced.

After a major patch release shut down servers and riddled the game with a number of issues, the Fortnite team has released a hotfix update closed open defects in the Save the World and Battle Royale modes.

Here are the details on what the update entails:

Save the World Bug Fixes:

• ‘Building Edit’ hotkey can be bound to keys other than ‘G’
• We’re changing the Mini-Boss Mission Alerts for Canny and Twine back to their pre v3.5 state.
• ‘Repair the Shelter’ objective now activates when you interact with the control panel rather than be based on proximity to the objective.
• Granted all players two free Spring Llamas (can be found in the Loot tab).
  • We’ve changed the way we convert event tickets. Players get 1 event Llama per 1000 tickets and 1 Llama for any tickets left over.
    • (Example) If you have 5 tickets left at the end of the event, you still get 1 free event Llama.

• ‘Building Edit’ hotkey can be bound to keys other than ‘G’
• Fixed an issue where players could fire weapons before the equip animation had finished, if they were sprinting.
• Fixed several client crashes that were related to the new Replay System.
• Fixed an issue that broke player’s walking/sprinting animations if they were firing a Guided Missile while walking/sprinting.
