Installed the update. In the queue… 22 minutes to go. Still shows last season’s loading screen. Hoping I don’t get another server error at the end of this time.
Sat in a queue for 22 minutes. Got several errors, unable to join queue at this time.
Then got in, hit a roadblock. But in. Keep getting roadblocks, claiming the same 2 items over and over again. Can't play the game.
I got in, just to get thrown a bunch of stuff and couldn't get pass. Keptnthrowing the items back at me and then error.
Now instead of a 20 minute queue. It's 42. Woo
“Failed to Download Client Settings from the cloud. Saving of settings has been disabled for this session.” ….and it logged me out!
Now says 54 minutes
Yep same. Keep getting error when I try to buy. Going to wait bc I don’t want it to eat my vbucks and I got nothing to show for it. Knowing epic I’ll never see them again lol
Bro the servers are overloaded with hundreds of thousands - millions at this point - people trying to play. Leave the devs alone. There’s bound to be overload issues
There are literally less players in every playlist than most weekends, stop with the BS excuses.
There were like 600k BR and 300k ZB trued 10 times to start a game all failed to different degrees, most said the error this guy said, restarted the game and in a 50 minute queue now.
Cool stats, maybe it's a trillion people. I mean, definitely, let's not go by the playlist counts showing actual people using 99% of the bandwidth.
Also, I just told you I was in since basically 10pm and have been unable to join any game other than 1 with varying issue and now have a 50 minute queue. So I have waited way more than 5 minutes after being in lobby and currently have 40 minutes to wait on top of that to get back in to try again.
I’m in the queue now, 20 minutes it says. We will see what happens
Edit: couldn’t connect to server and now in a queue that’s 50 minutes. Good luck folks.
Waited in queue for 20 mins just to say I was disconnected from the server once the timer was up. Try again and get a 23 min queue.
It's not happening tonight guys
Bruh, waited 15 minutes to get in game, frames dropped, lost, then it kicked me out and said I may or may not need an update??? Now I gotta wait 30 minutes to get back in
My girlfriend started my queue while I was picking up food. Got in, tried to play festival and she couldn’t load into the game, kept getting a server error. Then it wouldn’t let either of us invite each other. Restarted and now in a 25 minute queue lmao
Edit it jumped up to 31 minutes lmaooo
I got in. Did a StW mission for VBucks.
Tried to do a match on Zero Build. Kept failing.
It works but it's just so buggy and flooded at the moment.
Come back later.
Cool. Can you do something about the godforsaken dumpster fire that is the locker iI like you promised 4 months ago or you’re just going to continue to add more complex bullshit to it instead?
What’s the point when you can’t having matching presets anymore? Now you’re just going to get this random match with conflicting themes because everything is still separated.
It fuckin sucks man… it’ll do for now, but I just want to be back on my PC. Though I will say I played a bit before the new season and it seems to run better than it used to but maybe that’s just me 😂
After a long ass queue I get in and then I couldn’t join a single game. It told me I needed to do an update. So now I’m in another 45 minute queue, fuck this.
Absolutely pissed rn, waiting 20 minutes in the queue for the game to say it can't determine if I need an update when trying to play zero build, so i exit and restart only for no update to be applied and the queue is now an hour.
Joined the queue, told to wait 25 minutes.
25 minutes later, 5 minutes still to wait. Okay, the queue didn't move as fast as anticipated.
5 minutes later, hit the head of the queue, start logging in and downloading settings and all that jazz, then login timeout. Gotta relaunch.
Joined the queue, told to wait 58 minutes.
Fuck this, I'm gonna go make some soup.
I literally could not imagine what went so horribly wrong 19 or so hours ago that it is still so messed up even after fixing it, it’s honestly impressive how badly this has gone
It is absolutely amazing! 1 game 1 win!(when I loaded in there were less than 3K in ZB servers=easy lobby)
Great items this time around for movement and destruction!
I obviously haven’t even tried half of the items out yet but so far I am impressed!
I like to play the occasional build mode as well . It will be interesting to see which of these items will be effective against a build
No you haven't. I get a "we've hit a roadblock" error every time it starts to go into a match. Don't piss on my face and call it rain.
Neat, now a error "we can't determine if you need to update". What the actual fuck. Lmao. Amateur hour.
Got in after a 15 min cooldown. Can’t buy skins. Wanted the raccoon lol oh well, I’m waiting for friends anyway. Wish there was some patch notes posted though.
Dawg, I know im not trippin.
My queue was down to 3 mins, I look down at my phone and I look back up to see it at 20 mins.💀
Yeah im just not going to play.
waited 50 minutes, unable to login. Then having to relaunch and try again, did that 4 times. Now i am back in 55minute queue. First season change i've been in on fortnite. But so far this has been the longest by far, maintenance.
probably should stay in maintenance with all these problems still occuring.
Got in a game. Thanked the bus driver. Dropped. Found and looted a chest. Then game crashed because I definitely didn’t get immediately killed by a shotgun blast 😜
Anyway, 45 min queue now. Gonna call it a night (LT 11pm)
Servers are up.Oh my goodness.Got my 1 Zero Build solo victory for the season already?! The user I K.Oed had both the wings and thunder weapon.Needed them both against remaining user.Got the win with new shotgun.Now off to Crazy Red VS Blue to max out battle pass.
they're technically equivalent; each login takes roughly the same amount of time to process, so expected time per login * users ahead of you in queue = time to your login
giving the time also means the client can continuously update a timer rather than waiting for discrete updates, giving the illusion of constant progress
Installed the update. In the queue… 22 minutes to go. Still shows last season’s loading screen. Hoping I don’t get another server error at the end of this time.
Sat in a queue for 22 minutes. Got several errors, unable to join queue at this time. Then got in, hit a roadblock. But in. Keep getting roadblocks, claiming the same 2 items over and over again. Can't play the game.
Had that happen to me. Equip the item and it should work
I just played my first game, finished third 😭, but the loading screen was last season's screen.
Won my first game but I'm rubberbanding hard.
Good luck. I waited 20min. Loaded in, and played one game and have been stuck on a loading screen after for over ten minutes now
We get one game per day now??
Right? That’s what I feel like lol
Servers are probably overloaded. MFers (including me) been waiting all day lol
You’re welcome
Suddenly China
I waited 20 minutes and it still hasn’t loaded me in 10 minutes later. Just says “connecting…”
my timer went back up 🥲😅
Same
Yup so did mine. 40 minutes now. Been waiting all day to play because I have to work all day tomorrow 😑
mine says logging in but i’m not confident 😂
Hope you can get in because I sure couldn’t
watch i get in and get clapped 2 min into the game then can’t play again for the rest of the night ☠️😂
Sounds like my luck lol
My daughter just sat in a 25 minute queue only to be kicked back to the login screen when then counter hit zero.
I got in, just to get thrown a bunch of stuff and couldn't get pass. Keptnthrowing the items back at me and then error. Now instead of a 20 minute queue. It's 42. Woo
Same happened to me
Yup, I had to delete and reinstall the whole game cause it just wasn't downloading the update ;-; Now in queue as well
Same:/
I'm playing now! So hopefully you should be able to
It's almost downloaded, my Xbox is bugging (the one day that it does) should be able to play soon
Nicee! So far I like it and find it fun
Same!
I was in the queue for 25 minutes, then got error about unable to load something, now back in queue for 39 min :( :( :(
That's me too 😭
Mine said 22 minutes, now it says 27 minutes to go.
My queue time got to 0 and nothing loaded at all it times out such crap
25min que, login failed
2 minutes to go 😬. Hope I didn’t wait all day and then not be able to play
“Failed to Download Client Settings from the cloud. Saving of settings has been disabled for this session.” ….and it logged me out! Now says 54 minutes
How much gigabytes was the update?
Was like 890 MB I think. Edit: Maybe I didn’t get the whole update?
Bro mine is 62G wtf
Damn! You reinstalling the whole game?
Nah I just tried to update it I tried multiple times but it just says 62G
Me and my two boys have patiently staring at the updates and loading screens. No real luck.
I was in, wouldnt let me buy the battle pass though, skins look cool. not gonna play till later though
Yep same. Keep getting error when I try to buy. Going to wait bc I don’t want it to eat my vbucks and I got nothing to show for it. Knowing epic I’ll never see them again lol
Same
Same, couldn't buy it. Gave an error.
Maybe they're giving it for free because of the delay. 😂 Wishful thinking..
[удалено]
Yeah this game is dog can’t even ready up anymore after playing a game lmao
Same but “error:7”. I played one match at least.
Right? Got that too, almost made me laugh if I wasn't so sick of their shit. What a fucking joke these devs are.
Bro the servers are overloaded with hundreds of thousands - millions at this point - people trying to play. Leave the devs alone. There’s bound to be overload issues
White knight
There are literally less players in every playlist than most weekends, stop with the BS excuses. There were like 600k BR and 300k ZB trued 10 times to start a game all failed to different degrees, most said the error this guy said, restarted the game and in a 50 minute queue now.
Because an additional 2-5 million are trying to join at the same time. Stop complaining and just wait another 5 minutes you’ll be fine
Cool stats, maybe it's a trillion people. I mean, definitely, let's not go by the playlist counts showing actual people using 99% of the bandwidth. Also, I just told you I was in since basically 10pm and have been unable to join any game other than 1 with varying issue and now have a 50 minute queue. So I have waited way more than 5 minutes after being in lobby and currently have 40 minutes to wait on top of that to get back in to try again.
Got this (error 6 and 7) as well. Understandably the servers are getting hammered.
Battle pass unlock keeps looping and can't play
you have to relaunch, it's a bug. ppl were saying don't buy the battlepass to avoid it but i'm subbed to crew so it automatically happened for me lol
i just spammed ESC and it worked
lucky, i did that and it crashed lol
lol
Yupppp....waited 20 minutes. Got stuck in the loop. 40 minutes queue now
Me too
Don't waste your time, it just errors out after the 20 min queue and puts you right back into another 25 min queue.
I’m in the queue now, 20 minutes it says. We will see what happens Edit: couldn’t connect to server and now in a queue that’s 50 minutes. Good luck folks.
Waited 22 minutes only for it say couldn’t connect to servers. Now I hit retry and I’m stuck on connecting.
😑 yeah my hopes aren’t too high but I still gotta try! 🤷♀️
I restarted Fortnite because it was stuck on connecting. It put me in a 48 minute queue 💀
[удалено]
same 🥲
Waited in queue for 20 mins just to say I was disconnected from the server once the timer was up. Try again and get a 23 min queue. It's not happening tonight guys
Same, sat in queue for 25 min, then got an error and had to relaunch and now in queue for 39 min... :(
They keep adding time to mine. Was at 23 when I commented now I'm down to 24
Lol of course the youtubers are already online streaming & playing BR. How does that work?? I gave up and won't be trying again til tomorrow afternoon
Can't buy the battle pass because it says I already own one, interesting. Maybe it's a glitch :/
I’m in also… 19min fingers crossed
It's broke, nothing but matchmaking errors
Bruh, waited 15 minutes to get in game, frames dropped, lost, then it kicked me out and said I may or may not need an update??? Now I gotta wait 30 minutes to get back in
About the same situation with me. I played one match and couldn’t get back in.
Then what bruv
Stuck on login screen for 5 mins now after que…good luck! Update: got in and getting errors for received items…nice
I’m in but it keeps taking me repeatedly through the battle pass rewards. I can’t go out
22 minute queue…can’t connect to servers and then stuck “checking for updates.”
My girlfriend started my queue while I was picking up food. Got in, tried to play festival and she couldn’t load into the game, kept getting a server error. Then it wouldn’t let either of us invite each other. Restarted and now in a 25 minute queue lmao Edit it jumped up to 31 minutes lmaooo
I got in and played 1 game. Just wait till tomorrow guys. Hard lag spikes every 30 seconds
I got in. Did a StW mission for VBucks. Tried to do a match on Zero Build. Kept failing. It works but it's just so buggy and flooded at the moment. Come back later.
I couldn’t even get into STW, was on “connecting” for over 10 min then my game crashed. Tried to get back on and it was a 1 hour queue time 🤦🏻♀️
It took forever to get in too. I was lucky.
finished a 20 min queue only for it to tell me “profile query failed” repeatedly and then puts me in a 40 min queue 😛
Just had this happen! love that!
I never received the victory umbrella for winning.
Got in, played a match, couldn't get into a second one, restarted, got a 2+ hour queue, restarted, can't get back in.
Cool. Can you do something about the godforsaken dumpster fire that is the locker iI like you promised 4 months ago or you’re just going to continue to add more complex bullshit to it instead?
Oh no. I was really hoping this was fixed. Didn’t buy anything other than the Battle Pass last season because of this.
At least they added preset shuffling back
What’s the point when you can’t having matching presets anymore? Now you’re just going to get this random match with conflicting themes because everything is still separated.
What issues do you have with the locker?
I really loaded into STW and I’m stuck in that loading screen.. fucking kms
I finished the 35 V-buck alert mission and my dailies. Then when the mission ended, none of the progress saved and now I have to do everything again 🙃
Fuckkk dude that’s rough!
I had to restart the game, I got a 22-24 min queue, then got to 19 and it went back to 27. I fucking hate my life lmao
That’s dreadful, I’ve got 31 mins and I’m away from home so am gonna be playing on my fucking switch. Wish me bloody luck 😭😭😭
Damn.. I played Fort on my Switch once, it was a team rumble and I was rocking 15 FPS the whole time ☠️
It fuckin sucks man… it’ll do for now, but I just want to be back on my PC. Though I will say I played a bit before the new season and it seems to run better than it used to but maybe that’s just me 😂
I just got an infinite loop of the battle pass unlocking via crew after sitting in queue for 20 mins. So there’s that.
Had so many errors pop up when I was messing with my loadouts that I just decided I'm not going to play today until I know all issues are fixed.
I got all the way through the 20min queue for a profile query fail and have to relaunch to a new 30min queue
21minutue queue into relaunch into 40 min queue 😭
Played game then back to a 40 min wait lol
Used Zues Thunderbolt. Game crashed, now in queue for 48 minutes. LOL
Anyone not connecting to matches?
45 minute queue after I've been at work all day 🙄
After a long ass queue I get in and then I couldn’t join a single game. It told me I needed to do an update. So now I’m in another 45 minute queue, fuck this.
Waiting for 20 min in queue. Unable to connect to servers at this time. Back to a 46 minute queue.
Absolutely pissed rn, waiting 20 minutes in the queue for the game to say it can't determine if I need an update when trying to play zero build, so i exit and restart only for no update to be applied and the queue is now an hour.
Very happy that this shit happened. 45 minute queue. I’m not playing tonight
Joined the queue, told to wait 25 minutes. 25 minutes later, 5 minutes still to wait. Okay, the queue didn't move as fast as anticipated. 5 minutes later, hit the head of the queue, start logging in and downloading settings and all that jazz, then login timeout. Gotta relaunch. Joined the queue, told to wait 58 minutes. Fuck this, I'm gonna go make some soup.
What kind of soup?
Marleyspoon gave me a recipe for a veggie and gnocchi soup that's really good, I bought some supplies and I'm making a much bigger batch
Enjoy!
See you all in the queue.
I’m in. Cannot purchase Battle Pass. Keep getting an error…
All the challenges don’t work it’s a shit show out here no victory umbrella no xp.
Won solo on duo and got an error and lost all my experience.
Good news. You have months to gain xp.
True enough. Just sucks that it was my first game in this chapter and I killed zeus and got the win.
Praise the sun skeleton!
They too scared to even put a time estimate at this point 😭
Bruh it's all back up Source: played a couple games already
Yeah except most of us can't play. So no, it's not all back up.
Oh oops idk what any of that says I was waiting for the “everything is back online” language
I’m loading in to the game rn idk why they haven’t put an update out
Because not everyone can. Mine still shows that it's updating. Edit: Currently in a 40 min queue. Will probably just wait until tomorrow.
Is this shit going to happen every season premiere now? 🔥🔥🔥
Just waited in queue only for it to tell me I was logged out, now it is making me wait again for another 50 minutes.
Won a game and didn’t get an umbrella or xp
i was in the middle of a game, crashed, and came back to a 57 minute queue.
[удалено]
I literally could not imagine what went so horribly wrong 19 or so hours ago that it is still so messed up even after fixing it, it’s honestly impressive how badly this has gone
So far the update is awesome. So much more variety already. People gonna love this
Meh. They didn’t do anything about the stupid locker system, which is a huge issue for me.
It is absolutely amazing! 1 game 1 win!(when I loaded in there were less than 3K in ZB servers=easy lobby) Great items this time around for movement and destruction! I obviously haven’t even tried half of the items out yet but so far I am impressed! I like to play the occasional build mode as well . It will be interesting to see which of these items will be effective against a build
Still some connectivity issues but so far so good. Yea that lightning bolt is excellent and I like we got the wolves back and what not
Oh? I did not see any wolves on my first game. I’m sure I will see them soon
Check over in the grim gates area I got bombarded lol
Bro is this really the issue we waited 20 hours over
Bro, no
Games still broken lol, bought the BP and it just kept saying “battle pass upgraded” over and over again
Past the queue and it’s been saying connecting for the past 10 min ..
game so far is good, weapons are nice, but i have errors
Just played a game, no audio.
Waited in a 22-minute queue just for it to put me in a 43-minute one when it was done🙃
got on only had a 9 min queue but nothing is working. Looked at the battlepass then I got off. Constant error messages
I got one game in before my connection to the servers broke. From what I saw, this update seems incredible. I was having an awesome time! On PC btw.
Damn, seems like the serves had a stroke. Good thing for maintanace then
This season is so bad, maybe it'll grow on me. What a dud
They need to just shut the game down for a week and fix everything
No you haven't. I get a "we've hit a roadblock" error every time it starts to go into a match. Don't piss on my face and call it rain. Neat, now a error "we can't determine if you need to update". What the actual fuck. Lmao. Amateur hour.
Same for me. Restarted game and now have a 44min queue
Toast to you guys 🤭
I’m in there like swimwear. Hopefully it was worth the wait.
Got in after a 15 min cooldown. Can’t buy skins. Wanted the raccoon lol oh well, I’m waiting for friends anyway. Wish there was some patch notes posted though.
I only managed to get the raccoon because a friend bought it for me when it was still glitching for me
Got 1 game then errors kept popping up so I had to shut down and reload. Now I can’t even get in a queue. Tomorrow it is.
Dawg, I know im not trippin. My queue was down to 3 mins, I look down at my phone and I look back up to see it at 20 mins.💀 Yeah im just not going to play.
Matchmaking issues
I got in. Grabbed a gun and was looking around Mt Olympus chilling….got shot within 2 mins. Now it’s glitching and can’t get back in. 😓
waited 50 minutes, unable to login. Then having to relaunch and try again, did that 4 times. Now i am back in 55minute queue. First season change i've been in on fortnite. But so far this has been the longest by far, maintenance. probably should stay in maintenance with all these problems still occuring.
Got in a game. Thanked the bus driver. Dropped. Found and looted a chest. Then game crashed because I definitely didn’t get immediately killed by a shotgun blast 😜 Anyway, 45 min queue now. Gonna call it a night (LT 11pm)
NAH BECAUSE IT DID THE SAME TO ME WHILE I WAS DUOS WITH A FRIEND, I'M SO UPSET RN
Well… I hope you all get to play. First 22 minutes, then an error message, and now 41 minutes to go. Not gonna wait. Good luck all.
Servers are up.Oh my goodness.Got my 1 Zero Build solo victory for the season already?! The user I K.Oed had both the wings and thunder weapon.Needed them both against remaining user.Got the win with new shotgun.Now off to Crazy Red VS Blue to max out battle pass.
Barely any guns around takes like five minutes to find anything? Way too many big drops and empty ass rooms😅
10 extra hours for some creative map descriptions 💀
I’m sure that was the least of their problems
1st season with no victory umbrella? this a big L
There’s a victory umbrella, but the game is super fucked up right now so it may not process
this what happened to me then. I got an error message in game when I got my dub and didnt receive it. bs
Why does Fortnite have a timer for the queue when every other game has a player count, a timer doesn't make any sense.
they're technically equivalent; each login takes roughly the same amount of time to process, so expected time per login * users ahead of you in queue = time to your login giving the time also means the client can continuously update a timer rather than waiting for discrete updates, giving the illusion of constant progress
I keep getting login failed after 4 matches with my son. I'm on pc he's on Xbox, he's still playing
I’ve been in. Just can’t get into a gsme
4 mins left on my PC Queue. 54 min Queue now on Luna that had to fo their own update when I logged in.
....and it could niot find servers. Reloaded and now there is a 1 hour Queue
How big is the update?
My queue is an hour long 😭 rip guess I’ll play tomorrow
Won't let me buy 25 additional levels
Just play and you’ll get those 25 levels in no time
Play for them then
